              TITLE I--STUDENT LOAN MARKETING ASSOCIATION

SEC. 101. REORGANIZATION OF THE STUDENT LOAN MARKETING ASSOCIATION 
              THROUGH THE FORMATION OF A HOLDING COMPANY.

    (a) Amendment.--Part B of title IV of the Higher Education Act of 
1965 (20 U.S.C. 1071 et seq. (1988)) is amended by inserting after 
section 439 (20 U.S.C. 1087-2) the following new section:

``SEC. 440. REORGANIZATION OF THE STUDENT LOAN MARKETING ASSOCIATION 
              THROUGH THE FORMATION OF A HOLDING COMPANY.

    ``(a) Actions by the Association's Board of Directors.--The Board 
of Directors of the Association shall take or cause to be taken all 
such action as it deems necessary or appropriate to effect, upon the 
shareholder approval described in subsection (b), a restructuring of 
the common stock ownership of the Association, as set forth in a plan 
of reorganization adopted by the Board of Directors (the terms of which 
shall be consistent with this Act) so that all of the outstanding 
common shares shall be directly owned by an ordinary business 
corporation chartered under State or District of Columbia law (the 
`Holding Company'), as the Board of Directors may determine. Such 
actions may include, in the Board's discretion, a merger of a wholly 
owned subsidiary of the Holding Company with and into the Association, 
which would have the effect provided in the plan of reorganization and 
the law of the jurisdiction in which such subsidiary is incorporated. 
As part of the restructuring, the Board of Directors may cause (1) the 
common shares of the Association to be converted, at the reorganization 
effective date, to common shares of the Holding Company on a one for 
one basis, consistent with applicable State or District of Columbia 
law, and (2) Holding Company common shares to be registered with the 
Securities and Exchange Commission.
    ``(b) Shareholder Approval.--The plan of reorganization adopted by 
the Board of Directors pursuant to subsection (a) shall be submitted to 
common stockholders of the Association for their approval. The 
reorganization shall occur at the reorganization effective date, 
provided that the plan of reorganization has been approved by the 
affirmative votes, cast in person or by proxy, of the holders of a 
majority of the issued and outstanding shares of the Association common 
stock.
    ``(c) Transition.--
            ``(1) In general.--Except as specifically provided in this 
        section, until the dissolution date the Association shall 
        continue to have all of the rights, privileges and obligations 
        set forth in, and shall be subject to all of the limitations 
        and restrictions of, section 439 of this Act as in effect on 
        the effective date of this section. The Holding Company and its 
        affiliates other than the Association shall not be entitled to 
        any of the rights, privileges and obligations, and shall not be 
        subject to the limitations and restrictions, applicable to the 
        Association under section 439 of this Act as in effect on the 
        effective date of this section, except as specifically provided 
        in this section. The Holding Company and its subsidiaries 
        (other than the Association) shall not purchase loans insured 
        under this Act until such time as the Association ceases 
        acquiring such loans, except that the Association may continue 
        to acquire loans as a lender of last resort pursuant to section 
        439(q) of this Act or under an agreement with the Secretary 
        described in section 440(c)(6).
            ``(2) Transfer of certain property.--Except as specifically 
        provided in this section, at the reorganization effective date 
        or as soon as practicable thereafter, the Association shall use 
        its best efforts to transfer to the Holding Company or its 
        subsidiaries (or both), in each case, as directed by the 
        Holding Company, all real and personal property of the 
        Association (both tangible and intangible) other than the 
        remaining property. Without limiting the preceding sentence, 
        such transferred property shall include all right, title and 
        interest in (A) direct or indirect subsidiaries of the 
        Association (excluding any interest in any government sponsored 
        enterprise), (B) contracts, leases, and other agreements, (C) 
        licenses and other intellectual property, and (D) any other 
        property of the Association. Notwithstanding the preceding 
        provisions of this paragraph, nothing in this paragraph shall 
        be construed to prohibit the Association from transferring 
        remaining property from time to time to the Holding Company or 
        its subsidiaries, subject to the provisions of paragraph (4).
            ``(3) Transfer of personnel.--At the reorganization 
        effective date, employees of the Association shall become 
        employees of the Holding Company (or of the subsidiaries), and 
        the Holding Company (or the subsidiaries or both) shall provide 
        all necessary and appropriate management and operational 
        support (including loan servicing) to the Association, as 
        requested by the Association. The Association may, however, 
        obtain such management and operational support from other 
        persons or entities.
            ``(4) Dividends.--The Association may pay dividends in the 
        form of cash or noncash distributions so long as at the time of 
        the declaration of such dividends, after giving effect to the 
        payment of such dividends as of the date of such declaration by 
        the Board of Directors of the Association, the Association's 
        capital would be in compliance with the capital standards set 
        forth in section 439(r) of this Act. If, at any time after the 
        reorganization effective date, the Association fails to comply 
        with such capital standards, the Holding Company shall be 
        obligated to transfer to the Association additional capital in 
        such amounts as are necessary to ensure that the Association 
        again complies with the capital standards, but not to exceed 
        that amount received by the Holding Company as dividends during 
        the 6-month period immediately preceding such failure.
            ``(5) Valuation of noncash distributions.--After the 
        reorganization effective date, any distribution of noncash 
        assets by the Association to the Holding Company shall be 
        valued at book value on the date the Association's Board of 
        Directors approved such distribution for purposes of 
        calculating compliance with section 439(r) of this Act.
            ``(6) Restrictions on new business activity or acquisition 
        of assets by association.--After the reorganization effective 
        date, the Association shall not engage in any new business 
        activities or acquire any additional assets other than--
                    ``(A) in connection with (i) student loan purchases 
                through September 30, 2003, and (ii) contractual 
                commitments for future warehousing advances or pursuant 
                to letters of credit or standby bond purchase 
                agreements which are outstanding as of the 
                reorganization effective date;
                    ``(B) in connection with its serving as a lender-
                of-last-resort pursuant to section 439 of this Act; and
                    ``(C) in connection with its purchase of loans 
                insured under this part, if the Secretary, with the 
                approval of the Secretary of the Treasury, requests the 
                Association to continue or resume its secondary market 
                purchase program because the Secretary determines there 
                is inadequate liquidity for loans made under this part, 
                the Secretary is authorized to enter into agreements 
                with the Association covering these additional 
                secondary market activities.
        Any agreement entered into under subparagraph (C) shall cover a 
        period of 12 months, but may be renewed if the Secretary 
        determines that liquidity remains inadequate. The fee provided 
        under section 439(h)(7) shall not apply to loans acquired under 
        any such agreement with the Secretary.
            ``(7) Issuance of debt obligations during the transition 
        period; attributes of debt obligations.--After the 
        reorganization effective date, the Association shall not issue 
        debt obligations which mature later than September 30, 2007, 
        except in connection with serving as a lender-of-last-resort 
        pursuant to section 439 of this Act or with purchasing loans 
        under an agreement with the Secretary as described in paragraph 
        (6) of this subsection. Nothing in this subsection shall modify 
        the attributes accorded the debt obligations of the Association 
        by section 439, regardless of whether such debt obligations
         are incurred prior to, or at any time following, the 
reorganization effective date or are transferred to a trust in 
accordance with subsection (d).
            ``(8) Monitoring of safety and soundness.--
                    ``(A) Obligation to obtain, maintain, and report 
                information.--The Association shall obtain such 
                information and make and keep such records as the 
                Secretary of the Treasury may from time to time 
                prescribe concerning the Association's policies, 
                procedures, or systems for monitoring and controlling 
                financial risk to it resulting from the activities of 
                any of its associated persons, to the extent such 
                activities are reasonably likely to have a material 
                impact on the financial condition of the Association, 
                including its capital ratio, its liquidity, or its 
                ability to conduct and finance its operations, except 
                that the Association's obligations under this 
                subsection with respect to any associated person which 
                is a third party servicer (as defined in 34 C.F.R. 
                682.200(b)) shall be limited to providing to the 
                Secretary of the Treasury copies of any reports or 
                other information provided to the Secretary of 
                Education pursuant to 34 C.F.R. 682.200 et seq. The 
                Secretary of the Treasury may require summary reports 
                of such information to be filed no more frequently than 
                quarterly. For purposes of this paragraph, the term 
                `associated person' shall mean any person, other than a 
                natural person, directly or indirectly controlling, 
                controlled by, or under common control with the 
                Association.

intention to dissolve, unless within 60 days of receipt of such notice 
the Secretary of Education notifies the Association that it continues 
to be needed to serve as a lender of last resort pursuant to section

        liabilities of the Holding Company as of the date of 
        dissolution.
