PHEAA Seeks Bondholder Consent to Amend 1997 Student Loan Revenue Bonds
Amendment Would Allow Flexibility in Refinancing Bonds and Selling Student Loans
The Pennsylvania Higher Education Assistance
Agency (PHEAA) announced today that it will be seeking approval for the
Thirty-Eighth Supplemental Trust Indenture (the "Proposed Amendment") from
holders of all Outstanding Student Loan Revenue Bonds issued under the
Trust Indenture dated August 1, 1997, as amended and supplemented. The
Proposed Amendment would provide, among other things, the basis for future
opportunities for Bondholders to exchange their Bonds on a discounted basis
for student loans currently pledged as collateral under the Indenture or to
tender their Bonds for payment at a discount from collections of loan
repayments. A consent solicitation packet containing the Proposed
Amendment, together with relevant information materials and instructions
for consenting, is expected to be sent to Bondholders on or about Monday,
November 9, 2009.
