"(3) The maximum number of shares of common stock that the Association may issue and have outstanding at any one time shall be fixed by the Board of Directors from time to time. Any common share issued shall be fully transferable, except that, as to the Association, it shall be transferred only on the books of the Association. "(4) To the extent that net income is earned and realized, subject to subsection (g)(2), dividends may be declared on common stock and nonvoting common stock by the Board of Directors. Such dividends as may be declared by the Board shall be paid to the holders of outstanding shares of common stock and nonvoting common stock, except that no such dividends shall be payable with respect to any share which has been called for redemption past the effective date of such call. "(5) The Association is authorized to issue nonvoting common stock having such par value as may be fixed by its Board of Directors from time to time. Any nonvoting common stock shall be freely transferable, except that, as to the Association, it shall be transferable only on the books of the Association.". (3) The first sentence of section 439(g)(l) of the Act is amended to read as follows: "The Association is authorized to issue nonvoting preferred stock having such par value as may be fixed by its Board of Directors from time to time.. (b)(1) Section 439(d) of the Act is amended— (A) in paragraph (1), by inserting "or repurchase," after "purchase' and by inserting "or resell, offer participations, or pooled interests," after "sell"; (B) by amending paragraph (2) to read as follows: "(2) Any warehousing advance made under paragraph (1) of this subsection shall be made on the security of (A) insured loans, (B) marketable obligations and securities issued, guaranteed or insured by, the United States, or for which the full faith and credit of the United States is pledged for the repayment of principal and interest thereof, or (C) marketable obligations issued, guaranteed, or insured by any agency, instrumentality or corporation of the United States for which the credit of such agency, instrumentality or corporation is pledged for the repayment of principal and interest thereof, in an amount equal to the amount of such advance. The proceeds of any such advance secured by insured loans shall either be invested in additional insured loans or the lender shall provide assurances to the Association that during the period of the borrowing it will maintain a level of insured loans in its portfolio not less than the aggregate outstanding balance of such loans held at the time of the borrowing. The proceeds from any such advance secured by collateral described in clauses (B) and (C) shall be invested in additional insured student loans."; and (C) by adding at the end thereof the following new paragraph: "(4) Securities issued pursuant to the offering of participations or pooled interests under paragraph (1) of this subsection may be in the form of debt obligations, or trust certificates of beneficial ownership, or both. Student loans set aside pursuant to the offering of participations or pooled interests shall at all times be adequate to ensure the timely principal and interest payments on such securities.".
