NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the
Secretary of State for Education in its capacity as
master servicer (the "Master
Servicer") has informed the Issuer
that a technical issue has been identified regarding the
preparation of the forecast earnings and repayments presented in
the model information packs "2024-07-18 Sale 1 Year 7 Note for
Investors.pdf" made available in
July 2024 via the internet website https://sf.citidirect.com
(the "2024 Model
Information Pack-").
The identified issue is that the
entire earnings history of some borrowers who had repaid in full
and accordingly whose accounts were already closed, were
unexpectedly excluded from the forecast assumptions used in the
preparation of the 2024 Model Information Pack. They were not
excluded from the data input to the model. The below table sets out
the impact of this issue, as estimated by the Master Servicer, on
the estimated cashflows as compared to the cashflows presented in
the 2024 Model Information Pack.

It should be noted that this issue
only affected forecast earnings and repayments, and that there has
been no impact on the actual cashflows with respect to the
Notes.
The Master Servicer has now
rectified this issue, through the development of a code fix, and
has shared the corrected 2024 Model Information Pack via the
internet website https://sf.citidirect.com.
Save for such rectification, all other assumptions and inputs
remain the same as in the 2024 Model Information Pack.
Noteholders with queries concerning
the content of this notice are kindly requested to contact the
Issuer or the Secretary of State for Education in its capacity as
