Interest on the class B notes will be subordinate to interest on the class A notes and principal on the class B notes will be subordinate to both principal and interest on the class A notes.
We are offering the notes through the underwriters at the prices shown below, when and if issued. We have applied for a listing of the notes on the Luxembourg Stock Exchange.
You should consider carefully the risk factors beginning on page S-17 of this supplement and on page 19 of the prospectus.
The notes are asset-backed securities issued by a trust. They are not obligations of SLM Corporation, the depositor, any seller of the loans to the depositor, the administrator, the servicer or any of their affiliates.
The notes are not guaranteed or insured by the United States or any governmental agency.
