THIRD AMENDMENT TO THE

AMENDED AND RESTATED

PRIVATE STUDENT LOAN SERVICING AGREEMENT

BETWEEN

PENNSYLVANIA HIGHER EDUCATION ASSISTANCE AGENCY

AND

THE FIRST MARBLEHEAD CORPORATION

THIS THIRD AMENDMENT is made as of this 30th day of April, 2008, by and between Pennsylvania Higher Education Assistance Agency, a public corporation and governmental instrumentality organized under the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, having an address at 0000 Xxxxx Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxxxx, 00000 (“Servicer”), and The First Marblehead Corporation, having an address at 000 Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxx, 00xx Xxxxx, Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxxxxx 00000 (“FMC”). Capitalized terms used herein without definition have the meanings assigned to them in the Servicing Agreement (as defined below).

RECITALS

WHEREAS, the Servicing Agreement adopts Servicing Guidelines for loans owned by FMC or any Permitted Assignee (including any Special Purpose Entity) that purchases such Student Loans or any interest therein from a Program Lender or from another Permitted Assignee in a Securitization Transaction; and

WHEREAS, FMC, First Marblehead Data Services, Inc. (“FMDS”), as administrator for the Permitted Assignees, SPV, and Special Purpose Entities holding Student Loans, and Servicer desire to clarify the servicing requirements for loans that have been outsourced to NCO Financial System, Inc. (“NCO”) for collections activities; and

WHEREAS, the intent of this Amendment is to assure Servicer will not be held responsible for any violation of the Servicing Guidelines that may occur while the Student Loan was outsourced to NCO.

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein and other valuable consideration, and intending to be legally bound, the parties agree as follows:

1. Definitions. The following new definitions are hereby added to the Servicing Agreement to read as follows:

“NCO” means NCO Financial System, Inc.

2. Due Diligence Activities. The following Section 4.21 is hereby added to the Servicing Agreement as follows:

“4.21 The parties acknowledge and agree that due diligence and skip tracing activities contemplated by the Delinquency and Default and Skip Tracing sections of the Servicing Guidelines, as amended (the “Delinquency Guidelines”) during the 31st through 60th day of delinquency (the “Subject Delinquency Period”) for Student Loans owned by a Special Purpose Entity or SPV shall be performed by NCO and

not by Servicer (each such loan, for that 30-day time period, and for the purpose of due diligence activities only, an “NCO Outsourced Loan”). More specifically:

a. For any NCO Outsourced Loan, Servicer shall not be responsible for performing the Delinquency Guidelines for the Subject Delinquency Period.

b. For any Student Loan not outsourced to NCO, Servicer will be responsible for delinquency servicing and skip tracing requirement for loans 31-60 days delinquent.

c. Servicer shall maintain responsibility for filing for pre-claims assistance in accordance with the Servicing Guidelines, with the information that exists on the Servicer’s system as of day 60.

d. For any NCO Outsourced Loan, Servicer will not be responsible for initiating skip-tracing activities during the Subject Delinquency Period. Servicer shall update contact information within its system, if in the normal course of business Servicer or NCO obtains or receives new contact information.

e. For any NCO Outsourced Loan, Servicer will remain responsible for all loan servicing activities other than the Delinquency Guidelines, including but not limited to, the processing of deferments, forbearance, and MGRS forms, general correspondence, and borrower payments.

f. For rolling delinquent accounts, i.e., NCO Outsourced Loans which have Borrower payments applied that result in the account falling into the prior delinquency bucket or being brought current, Servicer will follow the Servicing Guidelines, which state that in the event of a rolling account, the servicer will resume scheduled delinquency servicing activities at the point in which the delinquency rolls into the previous delinquency bucket. Servicer will not be required to make up missed due diligence activities in the bucket the delinquency rolls into if the day delinquent in which the servicing resumes is after the first scheduled activity.

g. Servicer shall remain responsible for the reporting of loan information to the credit bureaus for all Student Loans in compliance with the Servicing Guidelines, with the information that exists on the Servicer’s system as of the day of reporting.

h. For any NCO Outsourced Loan for which the Guarantor assesses a servicing penalty at time of claim payment, Servicer shall not be held responsible for any portion of the penalty that relates to the performance or non-performance by NCO of the Delinquency Guidelines during the Subject Delinquency Period. FMC will be responsible for payment to Loan Owner for any servicing penalty assessed by the Guarantor due to NCO’s servicing.

i. For any NCO Outsourced Loan for which the Guarantor rejects the claim due to three or more servicing violations, Servicer shall not be held responsible for any portion of the penalties that relate to the performance or non-performance by NCO of the Delinquency Guidelines during the Subject Delinquency Period. Servicer will provide cure servicing to any loans for which the claim was rejected where at least one of the servicing violations was due to the performance or non-performance of Servicer. Servicer may provide cure servicing to any loans for which the claim was rejected where at least none of the servicing violations was due to the performance or non-performance of Servicer.

3. Full Force and Effect. As amended herein and as previously amended, the Servicing Agreement remains in full force and effect.

4. Counterparts. This First Amendment may be executed in multiple counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same document.

FOURTH AMENDMENT TO THE

AMENDED AND RESTATED

PRIVATE STUDENT LOAN SERVICING AGREEMENT

BETWEEN

PENNSYLVANIA HIGHER EDUCATION ASSISTANCE AGENCY

AND

THE FIRST MARBLEHEAD CORPORATION

THIS FOURTH AMENDMENT is made as of this 21 day of January, 2009 (the “Fourth Amendment”), by and between Pennsylvania Higher Education Assistance Agency, a public corporation and governmental instrumentality organized under the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, having an address at 0000 Xxxxx Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxxxx, 00000 (“Servicer”), and The First Marblehead Corporation, having an address at 000 Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxx, 00xx Xxxxx, Xxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxxxxx 00000 (“FMC”). Capitalized terms used herein without definition have the meanings assigned to them in the Servicing Agreement (as defined below), as amended.

RECITALS

WHEREAS, the parties entered into that certain Amended and Restated Private Student Loan Servicing Agreement dated September 28, 2006 (the “Servicing Agreement”);

WHEREAS, the parties entered into that certain Third Amendment to Servicing Agreement dated April 30, 2008 to outsource certain due diligence services from Servicer to NCO Financial System, Inc. (“NCO”), as set forth therein; and

WHEREAS, the parties desire to expand the services provided by NCO as set forth herein.

NOW THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants contained herein and other valuable consideration, and intending to be legally bound, the parties agree as follows:

1. Due Diligence Activities. The parties hereby amend and restate Section 4.21 of the Agreement by deleting it in its entirety and inserting the following in place thereof and in substitution therefor:

“4.21 The parties acknowledge and agree that the activities contemplated by the Delinquency and Default and Skip Tracing sections of the Servicing Guidelines, as amended (the “Delinquency Guidelines”) during the 31st through 120th day of delinquency (the “Subject Delinquency Period”) for Student Loans owned by a Special Purpose Entity (“SPE”) or SPV shall be performed by NCO and not by Servicer (each such loan, for that 90-day time period, and for the purpose of due diligence activities only, an “NCO Outsourced Loan”), unless otherwise agreed by the parties. More specifically:

a. For any NCO Outsourced Loan, Servicer shall not be responsible for performing the Delinquency Guidelines for the Subject Delinquency Period.

b. For any Student Loan not outsourced to NCO, Servicer will be responsible for delinquency servicing and skip tracing requirement for loans 31-60 days delinquent.

c. Servicer shall maintain responsibility for filing for pre-claims assistance in accordance with the Servicing Guidelines (except as modified by written instruction from FMC and the SPEs), with the information that exists on the Servicer’s system as of day 60.

f. For rolling delinquent accounts, i.e., NCO Outsourced Loans which have Borrower payments applied that result in the account falling into the prior delinquency bucket or being brought current, Servicer will follow the Servicing Guidelines, which state that in the event of a rolling account, the servicer will resume scheduled delinquency servicing activities at the point in which the delinquency rolls into the next delinquency bucket. Servicer will not be required to make up missed due diligence activities in the bucket the delinquency rolls into if the day delinquent on which the servicing resumes is after the first scheduled activity.

j. For all Student Loans, Servicer shall remain responsible for sending Final Demand letters at the 120th day of delinquency to both the Borrower and Cosigner, if any.”

k. In all situations where NCO performed or performs activities which include procedures not in compliance with the Remote Access, Confidentiality and Indemnification Agreement, and such activities have an impact on Servicer’s due diligence obligations or cause incorrect information to exist on Servicer’s system, FMC, the SPEs and/or SPVs waive any and all servicing violations that may result.

3. Section IV of Exhibit C “Service Level Agreements” is hereby amended by deleting the first two bullets referencing “Collection Contacts” and “Promise to Pay”, thereby leaving only the “Skip-Trace” bullet in that Section.

4. Full Force and Effect. As amended herein and as previously amended, the Servicing Agreement remains in full force and effect.

5. Counterparts. This Fourth Amendment may be executed in multiple counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same document.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be duly executed as of the month, day and the year first-above written.
