1114(b)(2) OF REGULATION AB. (CREDIT ENHANCEMENT AND OTHER SUPPORT, EXCEPT FOR CERTAIN DERIVATIVES INSTRUMENTS (FINANCIAL INFORMATION))



There
is no external credit enhancement or other support provider that is liable to provide payments supporting any notes or certificates
issued by the Issuing Entity.



ITEM
1115(b) OF REGULATION AB. (CERTAIN DERIVATIVE INFORMATION (FINANCIAL INFORMATION))



No
entity provides any derivative instruments that are used to alter the payment characteristics of the cash flows from the Issuing
Entity.



ITEM
1117 OF REGULATION AB. (LEGAL PROCEEDINGS)



The
sponsor is subject to various pending and potential legal and regulatory proceedings in the ordinary course of business, including
litigation, arbitration, claims, investigations, examinations, subpoenas and enforcement proceedings. Some litigation against
the sponsor could take the form of class actions. The outcomes of these proceedings are inherently uncertain, and thus no prediction
can be confidently given on how or when these proceedings will be resolved. An adverse outcome in one or more of these proceedings
could result in substantial damages, settlements, fines, penalties, diminished income or reputational harm to the sponsor, and
could materially and adversely affect the interest of the noteholders or the servicer’s ability to perform its duties under
the transaction documents. The proceedings identified below are those in connection with which the sponsor believes a material
loss is reasonably possible or probable.



In
2014 and 2015, General Motors Financial Company, Inc. was served with investigative subpoenas from various state attorneys general
and other governmental offices to produce documents and data relating to its automobile loan and lease business and securitization
of loans and leases. General Motors Financial Company, Inc. believes that it has cooperated fully with all reasonable requests
for information.



Since
June 18, 2014, a group of institutional investors have filed civil complaints in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, New
York County, and later the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York against Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., (“Wells
Fargo Bank”) in its capacity as trustee for certain residential mortgage backed securities (“RMBS”) trusts.
The complaints against Wells Fargo Bank alleged that the trustee caused losses to investors and asserted causes of action based
upon, among other things, the trustee’s alleged failure to: (i) notify and enforce repurchase obligations of mortgage loan
sellers for purported breaches of representations and warranties, (ii) notify investors of alleged events of default, and (iii)
abide by appropriate standards of care following alleged events of default. Relief sought included money damages in an unspecified
amount, reimbursement of expenses, and equitable relief. Wells Fargo Bank has reached an agreement, in which it denies any wrongdoing,
to resolve these claims on a classwide basis for the 271 RMBS trusts currently at issue. The settlement agreement is subject to
court approval. Separate lawsuits against Wells Fargo Bank making similar allegations filed by certain other institutional investors
concerning 57 RMBS trusts in New York federal and state court are not covered by the agreement. With respect to the foregoing
litigations, Wells Fargo Bank believes plaintiffs’ claims are without merit and intends to contest the claims vigorously,
but there can be no assurances as to the outcome of the litigations or the possible impact of the litigations on Wells Fargo Bank
or the RMBS trusts.
