| Explanation | As a Type II Supporting Organization, the supporting organization must be supervised or controlled by the persons supervising or controlling the supported organizations to ensure that the supporting organization is responsive to the needs and requirements of the supported organizations. The control or management of BHESC is vested in the same persons that control or manage the supported organizations. This is illustrated by the fact that the top two executives serve as officers of all the companies. These executives also have the decision-making power across all the companies. The President/CEO and the Executive VP-COO & CFO of BHESC serve in the same capacities for all companies although their titles may slightly differ among the organizations. The EVP-General Counsel and the Controller are also common across the companies.

Under the administration agreements, BHESC also performs all the administrative services for each student loan company's existence as a nonprofit corporation including but not limited to the following: - providing, or causing to be provided, all clerical and bookkeeping services; - causing an annual audit to be obtained; - causing to be prepared documents, reports, tax returns or any other such forms as may be required; - preparing for adoption by each student loan company all reports, documents, agendas, resolutions and meeting notices necessary for each student loan company's Board of Directors and its committees to conduct meetings and business affairs Therefore, as reflected in the above discussion, BHESC's role is responsive to the needs and requirements of the supported student loan companies by providing support, management and oversight to all the student loan companies. | ExplanationTxt |
