When measured as a percentage of ending loans in repayment, the off-balance sheet allowance for loan
losses percentage is lower than the on-balance sheet percentage because of the different mix and aging of
loans on-balance sheet and off-balance sheet.
Private Education Loan Delinquencies and Forbearance
The table below presents our Private Education Loan delinquency trends as of December 31, 2009, 2008
and 2007. Delinquencies have the potential to adversely impact earnings as they are an indication of the
borrower’s potential to possibly default and as a result require a higher loan loss reserve than loans in current
status. Delinquent loans also require increased servicing and collection efforts, resulting in higher operating
costs.
