        (as certified to the Certificate Registrar in an Officer’s Certificate) consistent with applicable law.

    As a condition to the registration of any transfer of a Trust Certificate, the prospective transferee shall be required to represent in writing to the Owner Trustee,
      the Transferor and the Certificate Registrar the following:

    (i)            It has neither acquired nor will it transfer any Trust Certificate it purchases (or any interest therein) or cause any such Trust Certificates (or any interest therein) to be marketed on or through an
        “established securities market” within the meaning of Section 7704(b)(1) of the Code, including, without limitation, an over‐the‐counter‐market or an interdealer quotation system that regularly disseminates firm buy or sell quotations.

    (ii)            It will be the beneficial owner of the Trust Certificate and it either (A) is not, and will not become, a partnership, Subchapter S corporation or grantor trust for U.S. federal income tax purposes or (B) is
        such an entity, but none of the direct or indirect beneficial owners of any of the interests in such transferee have allowed or caused, or will allow or cause, 50% or more (or such other percentage as the Transferor may establish prior to the time
        of such proposed transfer) of the value of such interests to be attributable to such transferee’s ownership of Trust Certificates.

    (iii)            It understands that no subsequent transfer of the Trust Certificates is permitted unless (A) such transfer is of a Trust Certificate with a Certificate Percentage Interest of at least 5%, (B) it causes its
        proposed transferee to provide to the Issuer, the Certificate Registrar and the Underwriter a letter substantially in the form of Exhibit C hereto, or such other written statement as the Transferor shall prescribe and (C) the Transferor consents in
        writing to the proposed transfer, which consent shall be granted unless, after consulting counsel, the Transferor determines that such transfer would create a risk that the Issuer or the Vehicle Trust would be characterized for U.S. federal income
        purposes as an association or a publicly traded partnership, in either case taxable as a corporation; provided, however, that any attempted transfer that would either cause (1) the number of registered holders of Trust Certificates, or trust
        certificates of any related issuer, in the aggregate to exceed 99 (provided that, each separate entity will be considered as a single registered holder, regardless of the number of trust certificates held by such entity) or (2) the number of
        holders of direct or indirect interests in the Vehicle Trust to exceed 50, shall be a void transfer.

    
      11

      
        


    

    (iv)            It understands that the Opinion of Counsel to the Issuer that the Issuer will not be characterized as an association or  a publicly traded partnership, in either case taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal
        income tax purposes is dependent in part on the accuracy of the representations in paragraphs (i), (ii) and (iii) above.

    (v)            It is not a Benefit Plan nor will it hold the Trust Certificates being transferred for the account of a Benefit Plan.

    (vi)            It is a Person who is either (A)(1) a citizen or resident of the United States or (2) a corporation or partnership (including any entity treated as a corporation or partnership for U.S. federal income tax
        purposes) organized in or under the laws of the United States, any state or the District of Columbia or (B) an estate the income of which is includible in gross income for U.S. federal income tax purposes, regardless of source or a trust if a court
        within the United States is able to exercise primary supervision of the administration of the trust and one or more United States person(s) (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Code) have the authority to control all substantial
        decisions of the trust.  It agrees that it will provide a certification of non‐foreign status signed under penalty of perjury (and such other certifications, representations or Opinions of Counsel as may be requested by the Transferor, the Owner
        Trustee and the Certificate Registrar).

    (vii)            It understands that any purported transfer of any Trust Certificate (or any interest therein) in contravention of any of the restrictions and conditions in this Section shall be void, and the purported
        transferee in such transfer shall not be recognized by the Issuer or any other Person as a Trust Certificateholder for any purpose.

    (viii)            No transfer of a Certificate or any interest therein shall be made unless each prospective transferee represents and warrants, with respect to itself and each prospective beneficial owner of the Certificate,
        that it is not a member of an “expanded group” (within the meaning of the Treasury Regulations issued under Section 385 of the Code) that includes a domestic corporation (as determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes) or a “controlled
        partnership” (within the meaning of Treasury Regulations issued under Section 385 of the Code) of such expanded group where any member of such “expanded group” directly or indirectly (through one or more entities that are treated for U.S. federal
        income tax purposes as partnerships, disregarded entities, or grantor trusts) owns Notes.

    (c)            By acceptance of any Trust Certificate, the related Trust Certificateholder specifically agrees with and represents to the Transferor, the Issuer and Certificate Registrar that no transfer of such Trust Certificate shall be made unless
        the registration requirements of the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws are complied with, or such transfer is exempt from the registration requirements under the Securities Act because the transfer satisfies one of the
        following:

    
      12

      
        


    

    (i)            Such transfer is in compliance with Rule 144A, to a transferee who the transferor reasonably believes is a Qualified Institutional Buyer that is purchasing for its own account or for the account of a
        Qualified Institutional Buyer and to whom notice is given that such transfer is being made in reliance upon Rule 144A and (A) the transferor thereof executes and delivers to the Transferor and the Certificate Registrar, a Rule 144A certificate
        substantially in the form attached as Exhibit B and (B) the transferee executes and delivers to the Transferor and the Certificate Registrar an investment letter substantially in the form attached as Exhibit C.

    (ii)            After the appropriate holding period, such transfer is pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Securities Act provided by Rule 144 under the Securities Act and the transferee, if requested by the
        Transferor, the Certificate Registrar or the Underwriter, delivers an Opinion of Counsel in form and substance satisfactory to the Transferor and the Underwriter.

    (iii)            Such transfer is to an institutional accredited investor as defined in Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act in a transaction exempt from the registration
        requirements of the Securities Act, such transfer is in accordance with any applicable securities laws of any State or any other jurisdiction, and such investor executes and delivers to the Issuer and the Certificate Registrar an investment letter
        substantially in the form attached as Exhibit D.

    (d)            Upon surrender for registration of transfer or exchange of any Trust Certificate at the office of the Certificate Registrar and upon compliance with the provisions of this Agreement relating to such transfer or exchange, the Owner
        Trustee shall execute and shall, or shall cause the Authenticating Agent to, authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Trust Certificates in authorized denominations of a like aggregate face
        amount dated the date of such authentication or the Trust Certificates that the Trust Certificateholder making the exchange is entitled to receive, as the case may be.

    The Certificate Registrar shall require that every Trust Certificate presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be accompanied by a
      written instrument of transfer and accompanied by IRS Form W‐9 (or applicable successor form) or such other form and such other documentation as may be reasonably required in form satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar duly executed by the Trust
      Certificateholder or such Person’s attorney duly authorized in writing.

    No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of Trust Certificates, but the Owner Trustee or the Certificate Registrar may require
      payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any registration of transfer or exchange of Trust Certificates.

    The Certificate Registrar shall cancel and retain or destroy, in accordance with the Certificate Registrar’s retention policy then in effect, all Trust Certificates
      surrendered for

    
      13

      
        


    

    registration of transfer or exchange and shall upon written request certify to the Transferor as to such retention or destruction.

    No transfer will be effectuated hereunder unless the Owner Trustee has received the transfer documentation required hereunder.

    (e)            The provisions of this Section generally are intended, among other things, to prevent the Issuer from being characterized as a “publicly traded partnership” within the meaning of Section 7704 of the Code, in reliance on Treasury
        Regulations Section 1.7704‐1(e) and (h), and the Transferor shall take such intent into account in determining whether or not to consent to any proposed transfer of any Trust Certificate.

    The preceding provisions of this Section notwithstanding, the Owner Trustee shall not make and the Certificate Registrar shall not register any transfer or exchange of
      Trust Certificates for a period of 15 days preceding the due date for any payment with respect to the Trust Certificates.

    Section 3.05.      Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Trust Certificates.  If any mutilated Trust
      Certificate is surrendered to the Certificate Registrar, or if the Certificate Registrar receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Trust Certificate and there is delivered to the Certificate Registrar and the
      Owner Trustee such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them harmless, then (and in the absence of notice that such Trust Certificate has been transferred to or is in the possession of a third party purchaser), provided
      that the requirements of Section 8‐405 of the UCC are met, the Owner Trustee on behalf of the Issuer shall execute and the Authenticating Agent shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or
      stolen Trust Certificate, a new Trust Certificate of like tenor and denomination.  In connection with the issuance of any new Trust Certificate pursuant to this Section, the Owner Trustee or the Certificate Registrar may require the payment of a sum
      sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection therewith.  Any duplicate Trust Certificate issued pursuant to this Section shall constitute conclusive evidence of an ownership interest in the Issuer as if
      originally issued, whether or not the lost, stolen or destroyed Trust Certificate shall be found at any time.

    Section 3.06.      Persons Deemed Trust Certificateholders.  Prior to due presentation of a Trust
      Certificate for registration of transfer, the Owner Trustee, the Certificate Registrar, any Paying Agent and any of their respective agents may treat the Person in whose name any Trust Certificate is registered in the Certificate Register as the
      owner of such Trust Certificate for the purpose of receiving distributions pursuant to Section 5.02 and for all other purposes whatsoever, and none of the Owner Trustee, the Certificate Registrar, any Paying Agent or any of their respective agents
      shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

    Section 3.07.      Access to List of Trust Certificateholders’ Names and Addresses.  The Certificate
      Registrar shall furnish or cause to be furnished to the Servicer and the Transferor, or to the Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee, as the case may be, within 15 days after receipt by the Certificate Registrar of a request therefor from the
      Servicer, the Transferor, the Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee in writing, a list, in such form as the requesting party may

    
      14

      
        


    

    reasonably request, of the names and addresses of the Trust Certificateholders as of the most recent Record Date.  If (i) two or more Trust Certificateholders or
      (ii) one or more Trust Certificateholders evidencing not less than 25% of the aggregate Certificate Percentage Interest apply in writing to the Certificate Registrar, and such application states that the applicants desire to communicate with other
      Trust Certificateholders with respect to their rights under this Agreement or under the Trust Certificates and such application is accompanied by a copy of the communication that such applicants propose to transmit, then the Certificate Registrar
      shall, within five Business Days after the receipt of such application, afford such applicants access during normal business hours to the current list of Trust Certificateholders.  Each Trust Certificateholder, by receiving and holding a Trust
      Certificate, shall be deemed to have agreed not to hold either the Transferor, the Certificate Registrar, the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee, as the case may be, accountable by reason of the disclosure of its name and address, regardless of
      the source from which such information was derived.

    Section 3.08.      Maintenance of Office or Agency.  The Trust shall cause the Certificate Registrar to
      maintain, at the Corporate Trust Office or such other location in Minnesota or Illinois chosen by the Certificate Registrar, an office or offices or agency or agencies where Trust Certificates may be surrendered for registration of transfer or
      exchange and where notices and demands to or upon the Trust in respect of the Trust Certificates and the Basic Documents may be served. The Trust initially designates the Corporate Trust Office of U.S. Bank National Association, a national banking
      association, solely for the purposes of the transfer, surrender or exchange of the Trust Certificates, as its office for such purposes.  The Owner Trustee on behalf of the Trust shall give prompt written notice to the Transferor and the other Trust
      Certificateholders of any change in the location of the Certificate Register or any such office or agency.

    Section 3.09.      Appointment of Paying Agent.  The Paying Agent shall make distributions to Trust
      Certificateholders pursuant to Section 5.02, and shall report the amounts of such distributions to the Owner Trustee in accordance with the Payment Date Certificate delivered in accordance with Section 8.03 of the Indenture.  Any Paying Agent shall
      have the revocable power to withdraw funds from the Certificate Distribution Account for the purpose of making the distributions referred to above.  The Paying Agent initially shall be U.S. Bank National Association.  The Owner Trustee may revoke
      such power and remove the Paying Agent if the Owner Trustee determines in its sole discretion that the Paying Agent has failed to perform its obligations under this Agreement in any material respect.  Any co‐paying agent chosen by the Transferor and
      acceptable to the Owner Trustee shall also be a Paying Agent.  Each Paying Agent may resign upon 30 days’ written notice to the Owner Trustee.  In the event that a Paying Agent may no longer act as Paying Agent, the Transferor, with the consent of
      the Owner Trustee, shall appoint a successor to act as Paying Agent (which shall be a bank or trust company).  The Owner Trustee shall cause such successor Paying Agent or any additional Paying Agent appointed by the Owner Trustee to execute and
      deliver to the Owner Trustee an instrument in which such successor Paying Agent or additional Paying Agent shall agree with the Owner Trustee that as Paying Agent, such successor Paying Agent or additional Paying Agent shall hold all sums, if any,
      held by it for payment to the Trust Certificateholders in trust for the benefit of the Trust Certificateholders entitled thereto until such sums are paid to the Transferor or such Trust Certificateholders.  The Paying Agent shall return all unclaimed
      funds to the Owner Trustee and upon removal of a Paying Agent such Paying Agent shall also return

    
      15

      
        


    

    all funds in its possession to the Owner Trustee.  The provisions of Sections 7.01, 7.03, 7.04 and 8.01 shall apply to the Owner Trustee also in its role as Paying
      Agent, for so long as the Owner Trustee shall act as Paying Agent and, to the extent applicable, to any other paying agent appointed hereunder.

    Section 3.10.      Ownership of Trust Certificate.  On the Closing Date, the Transferor shall acquire
      beneficial and record ownership of the Trust Certificate.  Upon a dissolution or termination of the Transferor, the Trust Certificates held by it shall be distributed to BMW FS without regard to the provisions of Section 3.02.  The Owner Trustee
      shall cause the Trust Certificate to bear a legend stating to the extent permitted by applicable law: “THIS TRUST CERTIFICATE IS NOT TRANSFERABLE EXCEPT IN THE EVENT OF THE DISSOLUTION, TERMINATION OR BANKRUPTCY OF THE HOLDER HEREOF, AND ANY TRANSFER
      IN VIOLATION OF THIS PROVISION SHALL BE NULL AND VOID”.

    Section 3.11.      Trust Certificates held by Issuer, Transferor or their Affiliates.  Any Trust
      Certificates owned by the Issuer, the Transferor or any of their respective Affiliates shall be entitled to the benefits under this Agreement equally and proportionately to the benefits afforded other owners of the Trust Certificates, except that
      such Trust Certificates shall be deemed not to be outstanding for the purpose of determining whether the requisite percentage of Securityholders have given any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent or other action under the Basic
      Documents (other than the commencement by the Issuer of a voluntary proceeding in bankruptcy).

    ARTICLE FOUR

    Section 4.01.      Prior Notice to Trust Certificateholders with Respect to Certain Matters.  Subject to
      the provisions and limitations of Section 4.04, with respect to the following matters, the Owner Trustee shall not take action unless the Owner Trustee has notified the Trust Certificateholders and the Administrator in writing of the proposed action
      at least 30 days before the taking of such action and Trust Certificateholders representing at least 50% of the aggregate Certificate Percentage Interest have not notified the Owner Trustee in writing prior to the 30th day after such notice is given
      that such Trust Certificateholders have withheld consent or provided alternative direction:

    (a)            the initiation of any claim or lawsuit by the Issuer and the compromise of any action, claim or lawsuit brought by or against the Issuer (other than an action brought by the Servicer on behalf of the Vehicle
        Trust and Persons having interests in the 2021-1 SUBI Certificate to collect amounts owed under a 2021-1 Lease or in respect of a 2021-1 Vehicle);

    (c)            the amendment of the Indenture in circumstances where the consent of any Noteholder is required;

    
      16

      
        


    

    (d)            the amendment of the Indenture in circumstances where the consent of any Noteholder is not required and such amendment materially and adversely affects the interests of the Trust Certificateholders;

    (e)            the amendment of any other Basic Document unless such amendment does not materially and adversely affect the interests of the Trust Certificateholders;

    (f)            the amendment, change or modification of the Issuer Administration Agreement, except to cure any ambiguity or to amend or supplement any provision in a manner or add any provision that would not materially
        adversely affect the interests of the Trust Certificateholders; or

    (g)            the appointment of a successor Owner Trustee or Indenture Trustee.

    Section 4.02.      Action by Trust Certificateholders with Respect to Certain Matters.  Subject to the
      provisions and limitations of Section 4.04, to the extent the Owner Trustee or the Issuer is deemed to be the Holder of the 2021-1 SUBI Certificate pursuant to the 2021-1 SUBI Supplement, the Owner Trustee or Issuer, as the case may be, shall take
      such actions as directed in writing by Trust Certificateholders holding Trust Certificates evidencing an interest of at least 662/3% of the aggregate Certificate Percentage Interest; provided, however, that so long as the Lien of the Indenture is outstanding, such direction shall be subject to the consent of the Indenture Trustee,
      acting at the direction of the Majority Noteholders.  The Owner Trustee may not, except upon the occurrence of a Servicer Default subsequent to the payment in full of the Notes and in accordance with the written directions of Trust Certificateholders
      evidencing 662/3% of the aggregate Certificate Percentage Interest, remove the Servicer,
      with respect to the 2021-1 SUBI Assets or appoint a successor Servicer, with respect thereto.

    Section 4.03.      Action by Owner Trustee with Respect to Bankruptcy.  The Owner Trustee shall not have
      the power to commence a voluntary proceeding in bankruptcy with respect to the Issuer except in accordance with Section 12.08.

    Section 4.04.      Restrictions on Trust Certificateholders’ Power.  The Trust Certificateholders shall
      not direct the Owner Trustee to take or refrain from taking any action if such action or inaction would be contrary to any obligation of the Issuer or the Owner Trustee under this Agreement or any of the other Basic Documents or would be contrary to
      the purpose of the Issuer as set forth in Section 2.03 or which could result in the Issuer being treated as an entity separate from the Transferor or the Issuer being characterized as an association or publicly traded partnership, in either case
      taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, nor shall the Owner Trustee be obligated to follow any such direction, if given.

    Section 4.05.      Majority Control.  Except as expressly provided herein, any action that may be taken
      by the Trust Certificateholders under this Agreement may be taken by the Trust Certificateholders holding not less than a majority of the aggregate Certificate Percentage Interest.  Except as expressly provided herein, any written notice of the Trust
      Certificateholders delivered pursuant to this Agreement shall be effective if signed by Trust Certificateholders holding not less than a majority of the aggregate Certificate Percentage Interest at the time of delivery of such notice.

    ARTICLE FIVE

    APPLICATION OF TRUST FUNDS; CERTAIN DUTIES

    Section 5.01.      Establishment of Certificate Distribution Account; Deposit Into Reserve Fund.

    (a)            The Owner Trustee, for the benefit of the Trust Certificateholders, shall establish and maintain (or cause the Indenture Trustee to establish and maintain) a trust account at an Eligible Institution in the
        name of the Issuer which shall be designated the “Certificate Distribution Account”.  The Certificate Distribution Account shall be held in trust for the benefit of the Trust Certificateholders, and shall bear a designation clearly indicating that
        the funds deposited therein are held for the benefit of the Trust Certificateholders.  The Certificate Distribution Account initially shall be established with the corporate trust department of U.S. Bank National Association.

    The Issuer shall possess all right, title and interest in all funds on deposit from time to time in the Certificate Distribution Account and in all proceeds thereof. 
      Except as otherwise provided herein, the Certificate Distribution Account shall be under the sole dominion and control of the Owner Trustee for the benefit of the Trust Certificateholders.  If at any time the Certificate Distribution Account ceases
      to be held at an Eligible Institution, the Owner Trustee shall, if directed to do so by the Transferor in writing, establish a new Certificate Distribution Account at an Eligible Institution and transfer any cash or investments to such new
      Certificate Distribution Account.

    (b)            Pursuant to Section 8.02(a) of the Indenture, the Issuer has established and the Indenture Trustee will maintain a trust account at an Eligible Institution in the name of the Indenture Trustee until the
        Outstanding Amount is reduced to zero, which is designated as the “Reserve Fund.”  On the Closing Date, the Transferor shall cause the Initial Deposit to be deposited into the Reserve Fund from the net proceeds of the sale of the Notes and the
        Trust Certificates.

    Section 5.02.      Application of Trust Funds.

    (a)            On each Payment Date, the Paying Agent on behalf of the Owner Trustee shall distribute to Trust Certificateholders all amounts deposited in the Certificate Distribution Account pursuant to Section 8.04 of the
        Indenture with respect to such Payment Date.

    (b)            [Reserved].

    (c)            On each Payment Date, the Paying Agent on behalf of the Owner Trustee shall send to each Trust Certificateholder a report (the “Distribution Statement”) provided by the Servicer (in the manner set
        forth in Section 8.03 of the Indenture), based on information in the Payment Date Certificate delivered pursuant to Section 8.03 of the Indenture, that shall include the information provided in such Payment Date Certificate.

    
      18

      
        


    

    The information required to be delivered by such Distribution Statement may be included with other information or reports furnished by the Servicer to the Owner
      Trustee in connection with the making of payments pursuant to the other Basic Documents.

    (d)            In the event that any withholding tax is imposed on the Issuer’s payment (or, if the Issuer is treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes, allocations of income) to a Trust
        Certificateholder, such tax shall reduce the amount otherwise distributable to such Trust Certificateholder in accordance with this Section.  The Owner Trustee shall authorize and direct Paying Agent to retain from amounts otherwise distributable
        to such Trust Certificateholders, sufficient funds for the payment of any withholding tax that is legally owed by the Issuer (but such authorization shall not prevent the Owner Trustee from contesting any such tax in appropriate proceedings, and
        withholding payment of such tax, if permitted by law, pending the outcome of such proceedings).  The amount of any withholding tax imposed with respect to a Trust Certificateholder shall be treated as cash distributed to such Trust
        Certificateholders, at the time it is withheld by the Issuer for remittance to the appropriate taxing authority.  If the Owner Trustee determines that there is a possibility that withholding tax is payable with respect to a distribution, the Owner
        Trustee may, in its sole discretion, direct the Paying Agent to withhold such amounts in accordance with this Section.  In the event that a Trust Certificateholder wishes to apply for a refund of any such withholding tax, the Owner Trustee shall
        reasonably cooperate with such Trust Certificateholder in making such claim so long as such Trust Certificateholder agrees to reimburse the Owner Trustee for any out‐of‐pocket expenses incurred.

    Section 5.03.      Method of Payment.  Subject to Section 9.01(c) respecting the final payment upon
      retirement of the Trust Certificates, distributions required to be made to Trust Certificateholders on any Payment Date shall be made to each Trust Certificateholder of record on the related Record Date by wire transfer or by check mailed to the
      addresses of such Trust Certificateholders as they appear on the Certificate Register.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the final payment on the Trust Certificates shall be made only upon presentation and surrender of such Trust Certificates at the
      office or agency specified in the notice of final payment to the Trust Certificateholders.  The Owner Trustee or a Paying Agent shall, upon receipt of at least 45 days’ notice from the Issuer or the Administrator as set forth in the Indenture,
      provide such notice to the Trust Certificateholder of record not more than 30 days and not less than 15 days prior to the date on which such final payment is expected to occur.

    Section 5.04.      Accounting and Reports.

    (a)            The Owner Trustee shall, based on information provided by the Transferor, (i) maintain (or cause to be maintained) the books of the Issuer on a calendar year basis on the accrual method of accounting (except
        as required by Article Eleven), and (ii) in addition to the Owner Trustee’s rights under Section 5.02, take such action as instructed by the Transferor, as holder of the Trust Certificate, to collect or cause to be collected and paid over to
        applicable authorities any withholding tax as described in and in accordance with Section 5.02 and Article Eleven with respect to income or distributions to Trust Certificateholders.  The Owner Trustee shall make all elections pursuant to Article
        Eleven as directed by the Transferor.

    
      19

      
        


    

    (b)            The Transferor shall maintain such books and records, and shall prepare and file such reports and returns, as are required pursuant to this Section and Section 11.01.

    ARTICLE SIX

    AUTHORITY AND DUTIES OF OWNER TRUSTEE

    Section 6.01.      General Authority.  The Owner Trustee shall administer the Issuer in the interest of
      the Trust Certificateholders, subject to the Lien of the Indenture Trustee, in accordance with the Basic Documents.  Subject to the provisions and limitations of Sections 2.03 and 2.06, the Owner Trustee is authorized and directed to execute and
      deliver on behalf of the Issuer the Basic Documents to which the Issuer is to be a party and each certificate or other document attached as an exhibit to or contemplated by the Basic Documents to which the Issuer is to be a party, in each case in
      such form as the Transferor shall approve as evidenced conclusively by the Owner Trustee’s execution thereof and the Transferor’s execution of this Agreement, and to direct the Indenture Trustee to authenticate and deliver Notes in the aggregate
      principal amount not to exceed $1,250,000,000 (except as otherwise contemplated by Section 3.05).  In addition to the foregoing, the Owner Trustee is authorized but shall not be obligated to take all actions required of the Issuer pursuant to the
      Basic Documents.  The Owner Trustee is further authorized from time to time to take such action on behalf of the Issuer as is permitted by the Basic Documents and that the Servicer or the Administrator instructs in writing with respect to the Basic
      Documents, except to the extent this Agreement expressly requires the consent of the Trust Certificateholders for such action.  The Owner Trustee shall not be liable for following such instruction.

    Section 6.02.      General Duties.  Subject to the provisions and limitations of Sections 2.03 and 2.06,
      it shall be the duty of the Owner Trustee to discharge or cause to be discharged all of its responsibilities pursuant to the terms of the Basic Documents to which the Issuer is a party and to administer the Issuer in the interest of the Trust
      Certificateholders, subject to the Lien of the Indenture Trustee, and in accordance with provisions of the Basic Documents.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Owner Trustee shall be deemed to have discharged its duties and responsibilities hereunder
      and under the other Basic Documents to the extent the Administrator has agreed in the Issuer Administration Agreement to perform any act or to discharge any duty of the Issuer or the Owner Trustee hereunder or under any other Basic Document, and the
      Owner Trustee shall not be held liable for the default or failure of the Administrator to carry out its obligations under the Issuer Administration Agreement.

    Section 6.03.      Action Upon Instruction.

    (a)            Subject to Article Four, the Transferor, as holder of the Trust Certificate, may by written instruction direct the Owner Trustee in the administration of the Issuer subject to, and in accordance with, the
        terms of the Basic Documents; provided that such instruction shall not, materially adversely affect any Securityholder.

    (b)            The Owner Trustee shall not be required to take or refrain from taking any action hereunder or under any other Basic Document if the Owner Trustee shall have

    
      20

      
        


    

    reasonably determined, or shall have been advised by counsel, that such action is likely to result in liability on the part of the Owner Trustee, is contrary to the
      terms hereof or of any other Basic Document or is otherwise contrary to law or any obligation of the Owner Trustee or the Issuer.

    (c)            Whenever the Owner Trustee is unable to decide between alternative courses of action permitted or required by the terms of this Agreement or any other Basic Document, the Owner Trustee shall promptly give
        notice (in such form as shall be appropriate under the circumstances) to the holder of the Trust Certificate requesting instruction as to the course of action to be adopted, and to the extent the Owner Trustee acts in good faith in accordance with
        any written instruction of Trust Certificateholders holding at least a majority of the Certificate Percentage Interest in the Trust Certificates, the Owner Trustee shall not be liable on account of such action to any Person.  If the Owner Trustee
        shall not have received appropriate instruction within ten days of such notice (or within such shorter period of time as reasonably may be specified in such notice as may be necessary under the circumstances), it may, but shall be under no duty to,
        take or refrain from taking such action not inconsistent with this Agreement or the other Basic Documents as it shall deem to be in the best interests of the Trust Certificateholders, and shall have no liability to any Person for such action or
        inaction.

    (d)            In the event the Owner Trustee is unsure as to the application of any provision of this Agreement or any other Basic Document or any such provision is ambiguous as to its application, or is, or appears to be,
        in conflict with any other applicable provision, or in the event that this Agreement or any other Basic Document permits any determination by the Owner Trustee or is silent or is incomplete as to the course of action the Owner Trustee is required
        to take with respect to a particular set of facts, the Owner Trustee may give notice (in such form as shall be appropriate under the circumstances) to the Transferor, as holder of the Trust Certificate requesting instruction and, to the extent the
        Owner Trustee acts or refrains from acting in good faith in accordance with any such instruction received from Transferor, as holder of the Trust Certificate and in accordance with Sections 6.04 and 6.05, the Owner Trustee shall not be liable, on
        account of such action or inaction, to any Person.  If the Owner Trustee shall not have received appropriate instruction within ten days of such notice (or within such shorter period of time as reasonably may be specified in such notice or as may
        be necessary under the circumstances) it may, but shall be under no duty to, take or refrain from taking such action, not inconsistent with this Agreement or the other Basic Documents, as it shall deem to be in the best interests of the Trust
        Certificateholders, and shall have no liability to any Person for such action or inaction.

    (e)            Notwithstanding the foregoing, the right of the Transferor or the Trust Certificateholders to take any action affecting the Owner Trust Estate shall be subject to the rights of the Indenture Trustee under the
        Indenture.

    Section 6.04.      No Duties Except as Specified.  The Owner Trustee shall not be required to perform
      any of the obligations of the Issuer under this Agreement or the other Basic Documents that are required to be performed by (i) the Servicer under the Servicing Agreement or the SUBI Supplement, (ii) the Transferor under this Agreement, the SUBI
      Certificate

    
      21

      
        


    

    Transfer Agreement or the Back-Up Security Agreement, (iii) the Administrator under the Issuer Administration Agreement or (iv) the Indenture Trustee under the
      Indenture.  The Owner Trustee shall not have any duty or obligation to manage, make any payment with respect to, register, record, sell, dispose of or otherwise deal with the Owner Trust Estate, or to otherwise take or refrain from taking any action
      under, or in connection with, any document contemplated hereby to which the Issuer is a party, except as expressly provided by the terms of this Agreement or in any document or written instruction received by the Owner Trustee pursuant to Section
      6.03; and no implied duties or obligations shall be read into this Agreement or any other Basic Document against the Owner Trustee, it being understood that, to the fullest extent permitted by law, any implied duties (including fiduciary duties) or
      liabilities otherwise existing at law or in equity with respect to the Issuer are hereby eliminated and replaced with the express duties and obligations set forth in this Agreement.  The Owner Trustee shall have no responsibility for filing any
      financing or continuation statement in any public office at any time or to otherwise perfect or maintain the perfection of any ownership or security interest in the Owner Trust Estate or to record this Agreement or any other Basic Document.  The
      Owner Trustee nevertheless agrees that it will, at its own cost and expense, promptly take all action as may be necessary to discharge any Liens (other than the Lien of the Indenture) on any part of the Owner Trust Estate that result from actions by
      or claims against the Owner Trustee in its individual capacity that are not related to the ownership or the administration of the Owner Trust Estate.

    Section 6.05.      No Action Unless Specifically Authorized.  The Owner Trustee shall not manage,
      control, use, sell, dispose of or otherwise deal with any part of the Owner Trust Estate except in accordance with (i) the powers granted to and the authority conferred upon the Owner Trustee pursuant to this Agreement, (ii) the other Basic Documents
      to which the Issuer or the Owner Trustee is a party and (iii) any document or instruction delivered to the Owner Trustee pursuant to Section 6.03.  In particular, the Owner Trustee shall not transfer, sell, pledge, assign or convey the 2021-1 SUBI
      Certificate except as specifically required or permitted by the Basic Documents.

    Section 6.06.      Restrictions.  The Owner Trustee shall not take any action (i) that is contrary to
      the purposes of the Issuer set forth in Section 2.03 or (ii) that, to the actual knowledge of the Owner Trustee, would (a) affect the treatment of the Notes as debt for U.S. federal income tax purposes, (b) be deemed to cause a taxable exchange of
      the Notes or the Trust Certificates for U.S. federal income tax purposes or (c) cause the Issuer, the Transferor or the Vehicle Trust or any portion thereof to be characterized as an association or a publicly traded partnership, in either case
      taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes.  The Trust Certificateholders and the Transferor shall not direct the Owner Trustee to take action that would violate the provisions of this Section.  The Owner Trustee may not
      (i) initiate or settle any claim or lawsuit involving the Issuer (unless brought by the Servicer to collect amounts owed under a 2021-1 Lease), (ii) amend this Agreement where Trust Certificateholder consent is required, (iii) amend this Agreement
      where Trust Certificateholder consent is not required if such amendment materially adversely affects the Trust Certificateholders or (iv) amend any Basic Document other than this Agreement if such amendment materially adversely affects the Trust
      Certificateholders, unless (a) the Owner Trustee provides 30 days’ written notice thereof to the Trust Certificateholders and the Administrator and (b) Trust Certificateholders evidencing at least 50% of the aggregate Certificate Percentage Interest
      do

    
      22

      
        


    

    not object in writing to any such proposed amendment within 30 days of such notice.  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Transferor, the Servicer and
      their respective Affiliates may maintain normal commercial banking relationships with the Owner Trustee and its Affiliates.

    Section 6.07.      Owner Trustee to Provide Information.  The Owner
        Trustee shall provide prompt notice to BMW Financial Services NA, LLC and BMW Auto Leasing LLC (each, a “BMW Party,” and together, the “BMW Parties”) of all demands communicated to the Owner Trustee for the repurchase or
      replacement of any 2021-1 Lease and 2021-1 Vehicle for breach of the representations and warranties concerning such 2021-1 Lease or 2021-1 Vehicle (each, a “Demand”).  Subject to Section 6.03 of this Agreement, the Owner Trustee shall have no
      obligation to take any other action with respect to a Demand, other than as set forth in the immediately preceding sentence.  However, the Owner Trustee shall, upon written request of either BMW Party, provide notification to the BMW Parties with
      respect to any actions taken by the Owner Trustee, if any, with respect to any such demand communicated to the Owner Trustee in respect of any 2021-1 Lease or 2021-1 Vehicle, such notifications to be provided by the Owner Trustee as soon as
      practicable and in any event within five Business Days of such request or such other time frame as may be mutually agreed to by the Owner Trustee and the applicable BMW Party.  Such notices shall be provided to the BMW Parties at (i) BMW Financial
      Services NA, LLC at 300 Chestnut Ridge Road, Woodcliff Lake, NJ 07677, Attention: General Counsel, or at such other address or by such other means of communication as may be specified by BMW Financial Services NA, LLC to the Owner Trustee from time

      and 1121(c) of Regulation AB (the “Repurchase Rules and Regulations”).  In no event shall the Owner Trustee have any responsibility or liability in connection with any filing required to be made by a securitizer under the Securities Exchange
      Act of 1934, as amended, or Regulation AB or with any BMW Parties’ compliance with the Repurchase Rules and Regulations.

      the contrary, neither Wilmington Trust, National Association nor the Owner Trustee shall be required to take any action in any jurisdiction other than in the State of Delaware if the taking of such action will (i) require the consent or approval or

      pursuant to the Agreement results in the consequences described in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) of the preceding sentence.  In the event that said counsel advises the Owner Trustee that such action will result in such consequences, the Owner Trustee
      will appoint an additional trustee pursuant to Section 10.05 hereof to proceed with such action.

    Section 7.03.      Furnishing of Documents.  The Owner Trustee shall furnish to any Trust
      Certificateholder promptly upon receipt of a written request by such Trust Certificateholder (at the expense of the requesting Trust Certificateholder) therefor, duplicates or copies of all reports, notices, requests, demands, certificates and any
      other instruments furnished to the Owner Trustee under the Basic Documents.

    Section 7.04.      Representations and Warranties.  The Owner Trustee hereby represents and warrants to
      the Transferor and the Trust Certificateholders, that:

        deliver and perform its obligations under this Agreement.

    (b)            It has taken all corporate action necessary to authorize the execution and delivery by it of this Agreement, and this Agreement will be executed and delivered by

    
      26

      
        


    

    one of its officers who is duly authorized to execute and deliver this Agreement on its behalf.

    (c)            Neither the execution nor the delivery by it of this Agreement, nor the consummation by it of the transactions contemplated hereby nor compliance by it with any of the terms or provisions hereof will
        contravene any federal or Delaware law, governmental rule or regulation governing the banking or trust powers of the Owner Trustee or any judgment or order binding on it, or constitute any default under its charter documents or bylaws or any
        indenture, mortgage, contract, agreement or instrument to which it is a party or by which any of its properties may be bound or result in the creation or imposition of any Lien, charge or encumbrance on the Owner Trust Estate resulting from actions
        by or claims against the Owner Trustee individually that are unrelated to this Agreement or the other Basic Documents.

    (d)            This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by it and constitutes the legal, valid and binding agreement of it, enforceable against the Owner Trustee in accordance with its terms, except as
        enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights in general and by general principles of equity, regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in
        a proceeding in equity or at law.

    Section 7.05.      Reliance; Advice of Counsel.

    (a)            The Owner Trustee may rely upon, shall be protected in relying upon and shall incur no liability to anyone in acting or refraining from acting upon, any signature, instrument, notice, resolution, request,
        consent, order, certificate, report, opinion, bond or other document or paper believed by it to be genuine and believed by it to be signed by the proper party or parties.  The Owner Trustee need not investigate any fact or matter stated in any such
        document, including verifying the correctness of any numbers or calculations.  The Owner Trustee may accept a certified copy of a Board Resolution or documents of any other governing body of any corporate party as conclusive evidence that such
        Board Resolution or other document has been duly adopted by such body and that the same is in full force and effect.  As to any fact or matter the method of the determination of which is not specifically prescribed herein, the Owner Trustee may for
        all purposes hereof rely on a certificate, signed by the president, any vice president, the treasurer, any assistant treasurer or any other authorized officers of the relevant party as to such fact or matter, and such certificate shall constitute
        full protection to the Owner Trustee for any action taken or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in reliance thereon.

    (b)            In the exercise or administration of the trusts hereunder and in the performance of its duties and obligations under this Agreement and the other Basic Documents, the Owner Trustee (i) may act directly or
        through its agents or attorneys pursuant to agreements entered into with any of them, and the Owner Trustee shall not be liable for the conduct or misconduct of such agents or attorneys if such agents or attorneys shall have been selected by the
        Owner Trustee with reasonable care and (ii) may consult with counsel, accountants and other skilled Persons to be selected with reasonable care and employed by it.  The Owner Trustee shall not be liable for anything

    
      27

      
        


    

    done, suffered or omitted in good faith by it in accordance with the opinion or advice of any such counsel, accountants or other such Persons and not contrary to this
      Agreement or any other Basic Document.

    Section 7.06.      Not Acting in Individual Capacity.  Except as provided in this Article, in accepting
      the trusts hereby created, Wilmington Trust, National Association acts solely as Owner Trustee hereunder and not in its individual capacity and all Persons having any claim against the Owner Trustee by reason of the transactions contemplated by this
      Agreement or any Basic Document shall look only to the Owner Trust Estate for payment or satisfaction thereof.

    Section 7.07.      Owner Trustee Not Liable for Trust Certificates.  The recitals contained herein and
      in the Trust Certificates (other than the signature of the Owner Trustee and the certificate of authentication on the Trust Certificates and its representations and warranties in Section 7.03) shall be taken as the statements of the Transferor and
      the Owner Trustee assumes no responsibility for the correctness thereof.  The Owner Trustee makes no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Agreement, any other Basic Document or the Trust Certificates (other than the signature of
      the Owner Trustee and the certificate of authentication on the Trust Certificates) or the Notes or any offering document relating to either of them.  The Owner Trustee shall at no time have any responsibility or liability for or with respect to the
      legality, validity or enforceability of any Basic Document to which the Owner Trustee is to be a party (except for enforceability against the Owner Trustee), or the perfection and priority of any security interest created by or under any Basic
      Document, or the maintenance of any such perfection and priority, or for or with respect to the sufficiency of the Owner Trust Estate or its ability to generate the payments to be distributed to Trust Certificateholders or to the Noteholders under
      the Indenture, or the validity of the transfer of the 2021-1 SUBI Certificate to the Issuer, or for the compliance by the Transferor, the Administrator or the Servicer with any warranty or representation made under any Basic Document or for the
      accuracy of any such warranty or representation or for any action of the Administrator, the Servicer or the Indenture Trustee taken in the name of the Owner Trustee.

    Section 7.08.      Owner Trustee May Own Trust Certificates and Notes.  The Owner Trustee in its
      individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Trust Certificates or Notes and may deal with the Transferor, the Servicer, the Administrator, the Indenture Trustee and their respective Affiliates, in banking transactions with the
      same rights as it would have if it were not the Owner Trustee.

        between the Transferor or the Administrator and the Owner Trustee, the Certificate Registrar or the Paying Agent, and the Owner Trustee, the Certificate Registrar and any Paying Agent and their respective

    
      28

      
        


    

    successors, assigns, agents, servants, officers and employees (collectively, the “Indemnified Parties”) shall be indemnified by the Issuer from and against, any
      Expenses (other than overhead), including but not limited to the costs of defending any claim or bringing any claim to enforce the indemnification obligations of the Issuer, that may at any time be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against the
      Owner Trustee or any other Indemnified Party in any way relating to or arising out of the Basic Documents, the Owner Trust Estate, the administration of the Owner Trust Estate or the action or inaction of the Owner Trustee hereunder, except only that
      the Issuer shall not be liable for or required to indemnify any Indemnified Party from and against Expenses arising or resulting from any of the matters described in items (i) or (ii) of the third sentence of Section 7.01 or for any income taxes on
      any fees payable to any Indemnified Party as set forth in Section 2.07.  The indemnities contained in this Section shall survive the resignation or termination of the Owner Trustee, the Certificate Registrar or any Paying Agent or the termination of
      this Agreement.  In any event of any claim, action or proceeding for which indemnity will be sought pursuant to this Section, the Indemnified Party’s choice of legal counsel shall be subject to the approval of the Transferor, which approval shall not
      be unreasonably withheld.  Any fees, Expenses and indemnification amounts due to the Owner Trustee, the Certificate Registrar and any Paying Agent will be paid to such party in accordance with the terms of Section 5.04 or 8.04 of the Indenture, as

      on a Payment Date and not otherwise paid or reimbursed to such party by the Issuer on such Payment Date in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and Section 5.04 or 8.04 of the Indenture, as applicable; provided that the Owner Trustee, the
      Certificate Registrar and any Paying Agent shall promptly reimburse the Administrator for any such amounts to the extent such party subsequently receives payment or reimbursement in respect thereof from the Issuer in accordance with the terms of
      Section 5.04 or 8.04 of the Indenture, as applicable.  This Section 8.01(a) shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the resignation or removal of the parties hereto.

    (b)            Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Owner Trustee shall not be liable for (i) any error of judgment made by an officer or employee of the Owner Trustee, (ii) any action taken or omitted to be taken in
        accordance with the instructions of any Trust Certificateholder, the Indenture Trustee, the Transferor, the Administrator or the Servicer, (iii) the interest on or principal of the Securities or (iv) the default or misconduct of the Administrator,
        the Servicer, the Transferor or the Indenture Trustee.

    TERMINATION OF TRUST AGREEMENT

    Section 9.01.      Termination of Trust Agreement.

    (a)            This Agreement (other than Article Eight) shall terminate and be of no further force or effect and the Issuer shall dissolve and wind up, (i) upon the final distribution by the Owner Trustee of all funds or
        other property or proceeds of the Owner

    
      29

      
        


    

    Trust Estate in accordance with the terms of the Indenture and this Agreement and (ii) at the times provided in Section 2.19 of the Servicing Agreement.  The
      bankruptcy, liquidation, dissolution, or termination, death or incapacity of any Trust Certificateholder, shall not (i) operate to terminate this Agreement or the Issuer, (ii) entitle such Trust Certificateholder’s legal representatives or heirs to
      claim an accounting or to take any action or proceeding in any court for a partition or winding up of all or any part of the Issuer or Owner Trust Estate or (iii) otherwise affect the rights, obligations and liabilities of the parties hereto.

    (b)            Except as provided in Section 9.01(a), neither the Transferor nor any other Trust Certificateholder shall be entitled to revoke or terminate the Issuer.

    (c)            Notice of any termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.01(a) shall be given by the Administrator by letter to Trust Certificateholders mailed within five Business Days of notice of such termination
        is sent to the Owner Trustee by the Administrator, stating (i) the Payment Date upon or with respect to which final payment of the Trust Certificates shall be made upon presentation and surrender of the Trust Certificates at the office of the
        Paying Agent therein designated, (ii) the amount of any such final payment and (iii) that the Record Date otherwise applicable to such Payment Date is not applicable, payments being made only upon presentation and surrender of the Trust
        Certificates at the office of the Paying Agent therein specified.  The Administrator shall give such notice to the Certificate Registrar (if other than the Owner Trustee) and the Paying Agent at the time such notice is given to Trust
        Certificateholders and the Transferor.  Upon presentation and surrender of the Trust Certificates, the Paying Agent shall cause to be distributed to Trust Certificateholders amounts distributable on such Payment Date pursuant to Section 5.02.  The
        Administrator shall promptly make notice available to each Rating Agency upon the final payment of the Trust Certificates.

    (d)            In the event that all of the Trust Certificateholders shall not surrender their Trust Certificates for cancellation within six months after the date specified in the above‐mentioned written notice, the
        Administrator shall give a second written notice to the remaining Trust Certificateholders to surrender their Trust Certificates for cancellation and receive the final distribution with respect thereto.  If within one year after the second notice,
        all of the Trust Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Administrator may take appropriate steps, or may appoint an agent to take appropriate steps, to contact the remaining Trust Certificateholders concerning surrender
        of their Trust Certificates, and the cost thereof shall be paid out of the funds and other assets that shall remain subject to this Agreement.  Any funds remaining in the Issuer after exhaustion of such remedies shall be distributed by the Owner
        Trustee to the Transferor.

    (e)            Upon the winding up of the Issuer and its termination and upon proper instruction under Section 6.03 hereof, and in compliance with Section 3808(e) of the Statutory Trust Statute, the Administrator shall wind
        up the business and affairs of the Issuer as required under Section 3808 of the Statutory Trust Statute and the Owner Trustee, at the written direction and expense of the Trust Certificateholders, shall cause the Certificate of Trust to be
        cancelled by filing a certificate of cancellation with the

    
      30

      
        


    

    Secretary of State in accordance with Section 3810(c) of the Statutory Trust Statute.  Upon the filing of the certificate of cancellation, the Trust and this Agreement
      (other than Article VIII) shall terminate and be of no further force or effect.

    SUCCESSOR OWNER TRUSTEES AND

      ADDITIONAL OWNER TRUSTEES

    Section 10.01.      Eligibility Requirements for Owner Trustee.  The Owner Trustee shall (i) be a
      corporation or other entity satisfying the provisions of Section 3807(a) of the Statutory Trust Statute; (ii) at all times be able and authorized to exercise corporate trust powers; (iii) have (or have a parent which has) a long‐term debt rating of
      at least investment grade by each Rating Agency or such other ratings for which the Rating Agency Condition is satisfied with respect to such Rating Agency; (iv) have (or have a parent which has) combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000;
      and (v) be subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authorities.  If the Owner Trustee shall publish reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of the aforesaid supervising or examining authority,
      then for the purpose of this Section, the combined capital and surplus of the Owner Trustee shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published.  In case at any time the Owner
      Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, the Owner Trustee shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in Section 10.02.

    Section 10.02.      Resignation or Removal of Owner Trustee.  The Owner Trustee may, at any time with 30
      days prior written notice to the Administrator, the Servicer, the Transferor, the Indenture Trustee and the Trust Certificateholders, resign and be discharged from the trusts hereby created.  Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Transferor
      shall promptly appoint a successor Owner Trustee by written instrument, in duplicate, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the resigning Owner Trustee and one copy to the successor Owner Trustee.  If no successor Owner Trustee shall
      have been so appointed and have accepted appointment within 30 days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Owner Trustee may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Owner Trustee.

    If at any time the Owner Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of Section 10.01 and shall fail to resign after written request therefor
      by the Administrator, the Transferor or Trust Certificateholders holding not less than a majority of the aggregate Certificate Percentage Interest, or if at any time the Owner Trustee shall be legally unable to act, or shall be adjudged bankrupt or
      insolvent, or a receiver of the Owner Trustee or of its property shall be appointed, or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Owner Trustee or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation,
      then the Transferor or such Trust Certificateholders may remove the Owner Trustee with 30 days’ prior written notice.  If the Owner Trustee shall be removed pursuant to the preceding sentence, the Transferor shall promptly appoint a successor Owner
      Trustee by written instrument, in duplicate, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the outgoing Owner Trustee so removed and one copy to the successor Owner Trustee.

    
      31

      
        


    

    Any resignation or removal of the Owner Trustee and appointment of a successor Owner Trustee pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section shall not become
      effective until acceptance of appointment by the successor Owner Trustee pursuant to Section 10.03 and payment of all fees and expenses owed to the outgoing Owner Trustee.  The Transferor shall make written notice of such resignation or removal of
      the Owner Trustee available to each Rating Agency.  Any appointment of a successor Owner Trustee is subject to satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition.

    Section 10.03.      Successor Owner Trustee.  Any successor Owner Trustee appointed pursuant to Section
      10.02 shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Administrator and to its predecessor Owner Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment under this Agreement, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the predecessor Owner Trustee shall
      become effective and such successor Owner Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become fully vested with all the rights, powers, duties and obligations of its predecessor under this Agreement, with like effect as if originally
      named as Owner Trustee.  The predecessor Owner Trustee shall, upon payment of its fees and expenses, deliver to the successor Owner Trustee all documents and statements and monies held by it under this Agreement; and the Transferor, the Administrator
      and the predecessor Owner Trustee shall execute and deliver such instruments and do such other things as may reasonably be required for fully and certainly vesting and confirming in the successor Owner Trustee all such rights, powers, duties and
      obligations.

    No successor Owner Trustee shall accept appointment as provided in this Section unless at the time of such acceptance such successor Owner Trustee shall be eligible
      pursuant to Section 10.01.

    Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor Owner Trustee pursuant to this Section, the Transferor shall mail notice of the successor of such Owner Trustee to all
      Trust Certificateholders and the Indenture Trustee, and with respect to each Rating Agency, shall make such notice available.  If the Transferor shall fail to mail such notice or make such notice available within ten days after acceptance of
      appointment by the successor Owner Trustee, the Administrator shall cause such notice to be mailed or made available, as applicable, at the expense of the Transferor.

    Section 10.04.      Merger or Consolidation of Owner Trustee.  Any Person (i) into which the Owner
      Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, (ii) resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Owner Trustee shall be a party or (iii) succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust
      business of the Owner Trustee, shall be the successor of the Owner Trustee hereunder, without the execution or filing of any instrument or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, provided, that such Person shall (i) be eligible
      pursuant to Section 10.01 anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding and (ii) file any amendment as may be required by the Statutory Trust Statute.  The Owner Trustee shall mail notice of such merger, conversion, or consolidation to the
      Administrator, the Indenture Trustee and the Trust Certificateholders.

    Section 10.05.      Appointment of Co‐Trustee or Separate Trustee.  Notwithstanding any other provision
      of this Agreement, at any time, for the purpose of meeting any legal

    
      32

      
        


    

    requirements of any jurisdiction in which any part of the Owner Trust Estate may at the time be located, the Transferor and the Owner Trustee acting jointly shall have
      the power and shall execute and deliver all instruments to appoint one or more Persons to act as co‐trustee, jointly with the Owner Trustee, or separate trustee or separate trustees, of all or any part of the Owner Trust Estate, and to vest in such
      Person, in such capacity, such title to the Issuer, or any part thereof, and, subject to the other provisions of this Section, such powers, duties, obligations, rights and trusts as the Transferor and the Owner Trustee may consider necessary or
      desirable.  If the Transferor shall not have joined in such appointment within 15 days after the receipt by it of a request so to do, the Owner Trustee alone shall have the power to make such appointment.  No co‐trustee or separate trustee under this
      Agreement shall be required to meet the terms of eligibility as a trustee pursuant to Section 10.01 and no notice of the appointment of any co‐trustee or separate trustee shall be required pursuant to Section 10.03.

    Each separate trustee and co‐trustee shall, to the extent permitted by law, be appointed and act subject to the following provisions and conditions:

    (a)            all rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred or imposed upon the Owner Trustee shall be conferred upon and exercised or performed by the Owner Trustee and such separate trustee or co‐trustee jointly
        (it being understood that such separate trustee or co‐trustee is not authorized to act separately without the Owner Trustee joining in such act), except to the extent that under any law of any jurisdiction in which any particular act or acts are to
        be performed, the Owner Trustee shall be incompetent or unqualified to perform such act or acts, in which event such rights, powers, duties and obligations (including the holding of title to the Trust Estate or any portion thereof in any such
        jurisdiction) shall be exercised and performed singly by such separate trustee or co‐trustee, but solely at the direction of the Owner Trustee;

    (b)            no trustee under this Agreement shall be personally liable by reason of any act or omission of any other trustee under this Agreement; and

    (c)            the Transferor and the Owner Trustee acting jointly may at any time accept the resignation of or remove any separate trustee or co‐trustee.

    Any notice, request or other writing given to the Owner Trustee shall be deemed to have been given to each of the then separate trustees and co‐trustees as effectively
      as if given to each of them.  Every instrument appointing any separate trustee or co‐trustee shall refer to this Agreement and the conditions of this Article.  Each separate trustee and co‐trustee, upon its acceptance of the trusts conferred, shall
      be vested with the estates or property specified in its instrument of appointment, either jointly with the Owner Trustee or separately, as may be provided therein, subject to all the provisions of this Agreement, specifically including every
      provision of this Agreement relating to the conduct of, affecting the liability of, or affording protection to the Owner Trustee.  Each such instrument shall be filed with the Owner Trustee and a copy thereof given to the Administrator, the Servicer
      and the Transferor.

    Any separate trustee or co‐trustee may at any time appoint the Owner Trustee, its agent or attorney‐in‐fact with full power and authority, to the extent not prohibited
      by law, to do any lawful act under or in respect of this Agreement on its behalf and in its name.  If any separate

    
      33

      
        


    

    trustee or co‐trustee shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all of its estates, properties, rights, remedies and trusts shall vest in and be exercised by the Owner
      Trustee, to the extent permitted by law, without the appointment of a new or successor trustee.

    ARTICLE ELEVEN

    TAX MATTERS

    Section 11.01.      Tax and Accounting Characterization.

    (a)            It is the intent of the parties hereto that the Issuer will not constitute a separate entity for purposes of U.S. federal and state income tax and any other tax measured in whole or in part by income.  It is
        the intent of the Transferor, the Noteholders and Trust Certificateholders that for purposes of U.S. federal and state income tax and any other tax measured in whole or in part by income, the Notes will be treated as debt secured by the 2021-1
        Vehicles and the payments on the 2021-1 Leases.  The Trust Certificates shall be characterized as equity in the Issuer and the Issuer, for purposes of U.S. federal and state income tax and any other tax measured in whole or in part by income, shall
        be disregarded as an entity separate from the beneficial owner of the Trust Certificate for so long as there is only one such beneficial owner. The parties agree that, unless otherwise required by appropriate tax authorities, the Issuer shall not
        file or cause to be filed annual returns, reports or other forms and will treat the Issuer in a manner consistent with the characterization that the Issuer is not a separate entity for tax purposes.

    (b)            It is the intent of the parties hereto that the Trust Certificate be treated as a direct ownership interest in the assets of the Issuer for purposes of U.S. federal and state income tax and any other tax
        measured in whole or in part by income. The Transferor and each other Trust Certificateholder agree to take no action inconsistent with the tax characterization of the Trust Certificate as a direct ownership interest in the assets of the Issuer for
        all such tax purposes.  If, however, the Issuer is characterized as a separate entity for purposes of U.S. federal and state income tax and any other tax measured in whole or in part by income, it is the intent of the parties that the Issuer be
        treated as a partnership for such purposes and the Transferor, as the holder of the Trust Certificate, and any other Trust Certificateholders, will be treated as a partner in such partnership.  At any such time that the Issuer is treated as such a
        partnership, this Agreement will be amended, in accordance with Section 12.01 herein, and appropriate provisions will be added so as to provide for treatment of the Issuer as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

    Section 11.02.      Signature on Returns; Partnership Representative.

    (a)            In the event that the Issuer shall be required to file federal or other income tax returns as a partnership, such returns shall be signed by an authorized signatory for the Transferor, for as long as it is a
        holder of a Trust Certificate, and thereafter, the largest percentage holder of the Trust Certificate, or such other Person as shall be required by law to sign such returns of the Issuer.

    
      34

      
        


    

    (b)            By acceptance of its beneficial interest in a Trust Certificate, each Trust Certificateholder agrees that in the event that the Issuer is characterized as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes,
        the Transferor, for as long as it is a holder of a Trust Certificate, and thereafter, the largest percentage holder of the Trust Certificate, shall be designated as the “partnership representative” within the meaning of Section 6223 of the Code (as
        amended by P.L. 114-74, the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2015) and the Issuer will, to the extent practicable, make the election described in Section 6226 of the Code (as amended by P.L. 114-74, the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2015).

    Section 11.03.      Tax Reporting.  Unless otherwise required by appropriate tax authorities, the Issuer
      shall not file or cause to be filed annual or other income or franchise tax returns and shall not be required to obtain any taxpayer identification number.

    ARTICLE TWELVE

    MISCELLANEOUS

    Section 12.01.      Amendments.

    (a)            This Agreement may be amended by the Transferor and the Owner Trustee without the consent of any of the Securityholders to cure any ambiguity, correct or supplement any provision herein that may be
        inconsistent with any other provision herein, add any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under this Agreement that are not inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement or add or amend any provision herein in
        connection with permitting transfers of the Trust Certificates or otherwise; provided, however, that such action shall not materially adversely affect the interests of any Holder of a 2021-1 SUBI Certificate (which, so long as any Notes are
        outstanding, shall include the Indenture Trustee) or any Securityholder.  Each amendment described above shall be deemed not to materially and adversely affect the interests of any holder of Notes, if the Rating Agency Condition is satisfied.

    (b)            This Agreement may also be amended from time to time by the Transferor and the Owner Trustee, with satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition, with the consent of the Noteholders holding a majority of the
        Outstanding Amount and, to the extent affected thereby, the consent of the Trust Certificateholders holding not less than a majority of the aggregate Certificate Percentage Interest, for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any
        manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Agreement or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Noteholders or the Trust Certificateholders.  No such amendment shall, however, (i) increase or reduce in any manner the amount of, or
        accelerate or delay the timing of, distributions that are required to be made on the Notes or the Trust Certificates or (ii) reduce the percentage of the aggregate Certificate Percentage Interest or the Outstanding Amount required to consent to any
        such amendment, without the consent of 100% of the Noteholders and the holders of 100% of all outstanding Trust Certificates, and provided, further that an Opinion of Counsel shall be furnished to the Indenture Trustee and the Owner Trustee to the
        effect that such amendment shall not (A) affect the treatment of the Notes as debt for U.S. federal income tax purposes, (B) be deemed to cause a taxable exchange of the Notes for

    
      35

      
        


    

    U.S. federal income tax purposes or (C) cause the Issuer or the Vehicle Trust to be classified as an association or a publicly traded partnership, in either case
      taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes. This Agreement may also be amended or supplemented from time to time, at the request of Trust Certificateholders holding not less than 75% of the aggregate Certificate Percentage
      Interest, to approve any trust purpose with respect to the Issuer in addition to the purpose authorized pursuant to Section 2.03(b), upon not less than 90 days notice from the Administrator to each Rating Agency and each Noteholder and subject to
      each of (1) the satisfaction of the Rating Agency Condition, and (2) the consent of Noteholders holding at least 75% of the Outstanding Amount, and provided, further that an Opinion of Counsel shall be furnished to the Indenture Trustee and the Owner
      Trustee to the effect that such amendment or supplement shall not affect the treatment of any outstanding Notes for U.S. federal income tax purposes, or cause the Issuer or the Vehicle Trust to be characterized as an association or a publicly traded
      partnership, in either case taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

    It shall not be necessary for the consent of Trust Certificateholders, the Noteholders or the Indenture Trustee pursuant to this Section to approve the particular form
      of any proposed amendment or consent, but it shall be sufficient if such consent shall approve the substance thereof.  The manner of obtaining such consents (and any other consents of Trust Certificateholders provided for in this Agreement or in any
      other Basic Document) and of evidencing the authorization of the execution thereof by Trust Certificateholders shall be subject to such reasonable requirements as the Owner Trustee may prescribe.

    (c)            Notwithstanding Section 12.01(b), this Agreement may be amended at any time by the parties hereto to the extent reasonably necessary to assure that none of the Vehicle Trust, the Issuer or the Transferor will
        be characterized as an association or a publicly traded partnership, in either case taxable as a corporation for federal income tax purposes.

    (d)            Prior to the execution of any amendment to this Agreement or any other Basic Document, the Owner Trustee shall be entitled to receive and rely upon an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such
        amendment is authorized or permitted by this Agreement and the other Basic Documents and that all conditions precedent herein and in the other Basic Documents to the execution and delivery of such amendment have been satisfied.  The Owner Trustee
        may, but shall not be obligated to, enter into any such amendment which affects the Owner Trustee’s own rights, duties, indemnities or immunities under this Agreement or otherwise.

    (e)            The Owner Trustee shall give the Trust Certificateholders 30 days’ written notice of any proposed amendment or supplement hereto, unless such amendment or supplement does not materially adversely affect the
        Trust Certificateholders or if Securityholder consent is required and this Agreement provides that the Owner Trustee shall not enter into such amendment unless a majority of the aggregate Certificate Percentage Interest of Trust Certificateholders
        or Noteholders consent in writing.

    
      36

      
        


    

    (f)            No amendment or supplement hereto shall be effective against the Certificate Registrar or the Paying Agent if such amendment or supplement would adversely affect the Certificate Registrar or the Paying Agent, as applicable, including,
        without limitation, any amendment or supplement that would increase the duties or liabilities of, or adversely change the economic consequences to, the Certificate Registrar or the Paying Agent, unless the Certificate Registrar or the Paying Agent,
        as applicable, otherwise consents in writing.

    Promptly after the execution of any amendment to the Certificate of Trust, the Owner Trustee shall cause the filing of such amendment with the Secretary of State.

    Section 12.02.      No Legal Title to Owner Trust Estate.  The Trust Certificateholder shall not have
      legal title to any part of the Owner Trust Estate.  The Trust Certificateholder shall be entitled to receive distributions with respect to its Trust Certificate only in accordance with Articles Five and Nine.  No transfer, by operation of law or
      otherwise, of any right, title or interest of the Trust Certificateholders to and in their ownership interest in the Owner Trust Estate shall operate to terminate this Agreement or the trusts hereunder or entitle any transferee to an accounting or to
      the transfer to it of legal title to any part of the Owner Trust Estate.

    Section 12.03.      Limitations on Rights of Others.  Except for Section 2.07, the provisions of this
      Agreement are solely for the benefit of the Owner Trustee, the Transferor, the Trust Certificateholders, the Administrator, the Servicer, the Indenture Trustee, the Asset Representations Reviewer and the Noteholders, and nothing in this Agreement
      (other than Section 2.07), whether express or implied, shall be construed to give to any other Person any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim in the Owner Trust Estate or under or in respect of this Agreement or any covenants, conditions or
      provisions contained herein.

    Section 12.06.      Counterparts.  This Agreement may be executed by the parties hereto in separate

      Financing have been paid in full, they will not institute against, or join any Person in instituting against any Trust Certificateholder, the UTI Beneficiary (and the general partner of the UTI Beneficiary that is a partnership, or the managing
      member of the UTI Beneficiary that is a limited liability company), the Vehicle Trustee, the Vehicle Trust, any Special Purpose Affiliate (and the general partner of any Special Purpose Affiliate that is a partnership, or the managing member of any

      reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceeding or other proceedings under any United States federal or state bankruptcy or similar law.

    Section 12.09.      No Recourse.  Each Trust Certificate entitles the holder thereof to the respective
      rights and benefits set forth in this Agreement and in the Trust Certificate.  The Trust Certificates do not represent interests in or obligations of the Servicer, the Administrator, the Transferor, the Owner Trustee, any Paying Agent, the Indenture
      Trustee or any Affiliate thereof and no recourse may be had against such parties or their assets, except as may be

    
      38

      
        


    

    expressly set forth or contemplated in this Agreement, the Trust Certificates or the other Basic Documents.

    Section 12.10.      Headings.  The headings of the various Articles and Sections herein are for
      convenience of reference only and shall not define or limit any of the terms or provisions hereof.

    Section 12.11.      Governing Law.  This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the
      State of Delaware, without reference to its conflicts of law provisions, and the obligations, rights and remedies of the parties hereunder shall be determined in accordance with such laws.

    Section 12.12.      Certificates Nonassessable and Fully Paid.  Subject to Section 2.07, Trust
      Certificateholders shall not be personally liable for obligations of the Issuer.  The interests represented by the Trust Certificates shall be nonassessable for any losses or expenses of the Issuer or for any reason whatsoever, and, upon
      authentication thereof pursuant to Section 3.03, 3.04 and 3.05, the Trust Certificates shall be deemed fully paid.

    Section 12.13.      Communications with Rating Agencies.   If the Owner Trustee shall receive any
      written or oral communication from any Rating Agency (or any of their respective officers, directors or employees) with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby or under the Basic Documents or in any way relating to the Notes, the Owner
      Trustee agrees to refrain from communicating with such Rating Agency and to promptly (and, in any event, within one Business Day) notify the Administrator of such communication.  The Owner Trustee agrees to coordinate with the Administrator with
      respect to any communication to a Rating Agency and further agrees that in no event shall the Owner Trustee engage in any oral communication with respect to the transactions contemplated hereby or under the Basic Documents or in any way relating to
      the Notes with any Rating Agency (or any of their respective officers, directors or employees) without the participation of the Administrator.

    Section 12.14.      Financial Crimes Enforcement Network’s Customer Due Diligence Requirements.   Pursuant to applicable law, including the Customer
      Identification Program requirements established under the Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act of 2001, Title III of Pub. L. 107 56 (signed into law October 26, 2001) and
      its implementing regulations (collectively, USA PATRIOT Act), the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network’s (FinCEN) Customer Due Diligence Requirements and such other laws, rules, regulations and executive orders in effect from time to time applicable
      to banking institutions (“Applicable Law”), the Owner Trustee is required to obtain on or before closing, and from time to time thereafter, documentation to verify and record information that identifies each person who opens an account.  For a
      non-individual person such as a business entity, a charity, a trust or other legal entity, the Owner Trustee will ask for documentation to verify the entity’s formation and existence, its financial statements, licenses, tax identification documents,
      identification and authorization documents from individuals claiming authority to represent the entity and other relevant documentation and information (including beneficial owners of such entities).  To the fullest extent permitted by Applicable
      Law, the Owner Trustee may conclusively rely on, and shall be fully protected and indemnified in relying on, any such information received.  Failure to provide such information

    
      39

      
        


    

    may result in an inability of the Owner Trustee to perform its obligations hereunder, which, at the sole option of the Owner Trustee, may result in the Owner
      Trustee’s resignation in accordance with Section 10.02 of this Agreement.  In the event of any change in beneficial ownership in the Trust (or any beneficial interest in that interest, regardless of form), such change shall be accompanied by IRS Form
      W-9, as applicable, and such other documentation as may be required by the Owner Trustee in order to comply with Applicable Law.

    ARTICLE THIRTEEN

    COMPLIANCE WITH REGULATION AB

    The Transferor and the Owner Trustee acknowledge and agree that the purpose of Article XIII of this Agreement is to facilitate compliance by the Transferor with the
      provisions of Regulation AB and related rules and regulations of the Commission.

    Neither the Transferor or the Owner Trustee shall exercise its right to request delivery of information or other performance under these provisions other than in good
      faith, or for purposes other than compliance with the Securities Act, the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder (or the provision in a private offering of disclosure comparable to that required under the Securities
      Act).  The Owner Trustee acknowledges that interpretations of the requirements of Regulation AB may change over time, whether due to interpretive guidance provided by the Commission or its staff, consensus among participants in the asset-backed
      securities markets, advice of counsel, or otherwise, and agrees to comply with requests made by the Transferor in good faith for delivery of information under these provisions on the basis of evolving interpretations of Regulation AB.  In connection
      therewith, the Owner Trustee shall cooperate fully with the Transferor to deliver to the Transferor (including any of its assignees or designees), any and all statements, reports, certifications, records, attestations, and any other information
      necessary in the good faith determination of the Transferor, to permit the Transferor to comply with the provisions of Regulation AB, together with such disclosures relating to the Owner Trustee or the servicing of the 2021-1 Leases and the 2021-1
      Vehicles, reasonably believed by the Transferor to be necessary in order to effect such compliance.

      Certificate Transfer Agreement), evidencing a beneficial interest in the 2021-1 SUBI Assets.  The property of the Issuer has been pledged to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to the Indenture to secure the payment of the Notes issued thereunder.

    This Trust Certificate does not represent an interest in or obligation of the Transferor, BMW Financial Services NA, LLC, the Owner Trustee, any Paying Agent or any of
      their respective Affiliates, except to the extent described below.

    This certifies that BMW AUTO LEASING LLC is the registered owner of a 100% Certificate Percentage Interest that is nonassessable, fully-paid, beneficial ownership
      interest in certain distributions of BMW Vehicle Lease Trust 2021-1 (the “Issuer”) formed by BMW Auto Leasing LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Transferor”).

    The Issuer was created pursuant to a trust agreement, as amended and restated as of March 10, 2021 (the “Trust Agreement”), between the Transferor and
      Wilmington Trust, National Association, as trustee (the “Owner Trustee”), a summary of certain of the pertinent provisions of which is set forth below.  Capitalized terms used herein that are not otherwise defined shall have the meanings
      assigned thereto in the Trust Agreement.

    This Trust Certificate is one of the duly authorized Trust Certificates designated under the Trust Agreement.  Also issued under an indenture, dated as of March 10,
      2021 (the “Indenture”), between the Issuer and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (the “Indenture Trustee”), are the Class A-1 Notes, Class A-2 Notes, Class A-3 Notes and Class A-4 Notes.  This Trust Certificate is issued under
      and is subject to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Trust Agreement, to which Trust Agreement the holder of this Trust Certificate by virtue of the acceptance hereof assents and by which such Trust Certificateholder is bound.  The property
      of the Issuer primarily includes, among other things, (i) the 2021-1 SUBI Certificate (transferred pursuant to the Issuer SUBI Certificate Transfer Agreement), evidencing a 100% beneficial interest in the 2021-1 SUBI Assets, (ii) the security
      interest of the Issuer in the Reserve Fund Property and (iii) all proceeds of the foregoing.  The rights of the Issuer in the foregoing property have been pledged by the Issuer to the Indenture Trustee to secure the payment of the Notes.

    The Trust Certificates represent obligations of the Issuer only and do not represent interests in, recourse to or obligations of the Transferor, the UTI Beneficiaries,
      the Owner Trustee any Paying Agent or any of their respective Affiliates.

    Under the Trust Agreement, there will be distributed on the 25th of each month (or, if such day is not a Business Day, the next Business Day), commencing on April 26,
      2021 (each, a “Payment Date”), to the Person in whose name this Trust Certificate is registered at the close of business on the Business Day immediately preceding each Payment Date (each, a “Record Date”) such Trust Certificateholder’s
      percentage interest in the amount to be distributed with respect to the Trust Certificates on such Payment Date and any remaining amounts shall be distributed to the Transferor as holder of the Trust Certificate pursuant to the terms of the Basic
      Documents.

    The holder of this Trust Certificate acknowledges and agrees that its rights to receive payments in respect of this Trust Certificate are subordinated to the rights of
      the Noteholders as described in the Indenture.

    It is the intent of the Transferor and Trust Certificateholders that the Trust Certificates be treated as equity of the Issuer for purposes of U.S. federal and state
      income tax and any other tax

    
      A-3

      
        


    

    measured in whole or in part by income.  If the Issuer is characterized as a separate entity for purposes of U.S. federal and state income tax and any other tax measured in whole or in
      part by income, it is the intent of the parties to the Trust Agreement that it be treated as a partnership for such purposes and the Trust Certificateholders will be treated as partners in that partnership.  The Transferor and the other Trust
      Certificateholders, by acceptance of a Trust Certificate, agree to take no action inconsistent with such tax treatment of the Trust Certificates.

    Each Trust Certificateholder by accepting this Trust Certificate, covenants and agrees that prior to the date that is one year and one day after the date upon which
      all obligations and payments under the related transaction documents have been paid in full, it will not institute against, or join any Person in instituting against any Trust Certificateholder, the UTI Beneficiary (and the general partner of the UTI
      Beneficiary that is a partnership, or the managing member of the UTI Beneficiary that is a limited liability company), the Vehicle Trustee, the Vehicle Trust, any Special Purpose Affiliate (and the general partner of any Special Purpose Affiliate
      that is a partnership, or the managing member of any Special Purpose Affiliate that is a limited liability company) that holds a beneficial interest in the Vehicle Trust, the Transferor, the Owner Trustee, the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee or any
      Affiliate or beneficiary of the same, any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceeding or other proceedings under any United States federal or state bankruptcy or similar law.

    Distributions on this Trust Certificate will be made as provided in the Trust Agreement by or on behalf of the Owner Trustee by wire transfer or by check mailed to the
      Trust Certificateholder of record in the Certificate Register without the presentation or surrender of this Trust Certificate or the making of any notation hereon.  Except as otherwise provided in the Trust Agreement and notwithstanding the above,
      the final payment on this Trust Certificate will be made after due notice by the Owner Trustee of the pendency of such payment and only upon presentation and surrender of this Trust Certificate at the office or agency maintained for such purpose by
      the Certificate Registrar in The City of New York.

    Reference is hereby made to the further provisions of this Trust Certificate set forth on the reverse hereof, which further provisions shall for all purposes have the
      same effect as if set forth at this place.

    Unless the certificate of authentication hereon shall have been executed by an authorized officer of the Owner Trustee, by manual signature, this Trust Certificate
      shall not entitle the holder hereof to any benefit under the Trust Agreement or be valid for any purpose.

    THIS TRUST CERTIFICATE SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE, WITHOUT REFERENCE TO ITS CONFLICTS OF LAW
      PROVISIONS, AND THE OBLIGATIONS, RIGHTS AND REMEDIES OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE DETERMINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SUCH LAWS.

    
      A-4

      
        


    

    IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Owner Trustee, on behalf of the Issuer and not in its individual capacity, has caused this Trust Certificate to be duly executed.

    [Reverse of Trust Certificate]

    This Trust Certificate does not represent an obligation of or an interest in the Transferor, the Administrator, the Servicer, the Owner Trustee, any Paying Agent, the
      Indenture Trustee or any of their respective Affiliates, and no recourse may be had against such parties or their assets, except as may be expressly set forth or contemplated herein or in the Trust Agreement or the other Basic Documents.  In
      addition, this Trust Certificate is not guaranteed by any governmental agency or instrumentality and is limited in right of payment to certain collections and recoveries and certain other amounts respecting the assets of the Issuer, all as more
      specifically set forth in the Indenture.  The Transferor will furnish, upon the request of any holder of a Trust Certificate, such information as is specified in paragraph (d)(4) of Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, with respect to
      the Issuer.

    The Trust Agreement may be amended by the Transferor and the Owner Trustee, in some cases without the consent of any of the Securityholders in the manner set forth
      therein, and any such amendment will bind each holder and transferee of this Certificate.

    As provided in the Trust Agreement, and if the Transferor delivers an Opinion of Counsel that the Trust Certificates are transferable in accordance with the terms set
      forth therein, which opinion the Transferor has not determined can be given under the Internal Revenue Code and existing and proposed regulations thereunder, the transfer of this Trust Certificate is registerable in the Certificate Register upon
      surrender of this Trust Certificate for registration of transfer at the offices or agencies of the Certificate Registrar maintained by the Trust in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in
      form satisfactory to the Owner Trustee and the Certificate Registrar duly executed by the Trust Certificateholder hereof or such Trust Certificateholder’s attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Trust Certificates of the
      same class and in authorized denominations evidencing the same aggregate interest in the Issuer will be issued to the designated transferee.  The initial Certificate Registrar appointed under the Trust Agreement is U.S. Bank National Association.

    The Trust Certificates are issuable only as registered Trust Certificates without coupons or principal balance.  As provided in the Trust Agreement and subject to
      certain limitations therein set forth, Trust Certificates are exchangeable for new Trust Certificates of authorized percentage interests evidencing the same aggregate percentage interest, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same.  No service
      charge will be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Owner Trustee or the Certificate Registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

    The Owner Trustee, the Certificate Registrar and any agent of the Owner Trustee or the Certificate Registrar may treat the Person in whose name this Trust Certificate
      is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and none of the Owner Trustee, the Certificate Registrar or any such agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

    The obligations and responsibilities created by the Trust Agreement and the trust created thereby shall terminate upon the payment to Trust Certificateholders of all
      amounts required to

    
      A-6

      
        


    

    be paid to them pursuant to the Trust Agreement and the Indenture and the disposition of all property held as part of the Owner Trust Estate.

    Any prospective transferee of this Trust Certificate will be required to deliver a letter to the Transferor, the Certificate Registrar and the Underwriter
      substantially in the form of Exhibit C to the Trust Agreement, which letter includes a representation that such prospective transferee is not a Benefit Plan Investor.  This Trust Certificate may not be transferred, sold, pledged or otherwise disposed
      to or for the account of a Benefit Plan Investor.

    This Trust Certificate may not be acquired by a Benefit Plan.  By accepting and holding this Trust Certificate, the holder hereof shall be deemed to have represented
      and warranted that it is not a Benefit Plan and is not acquiring this Trust Certificate or an interest therein for the account of a Benefit Plan.

    Ladies and Gentlemen:

    In connection with our proposed purchase of [___]% Certificate Percentage Interest of the Asset-Backed Certificates (the “Certificates”) representing an
      undivided interest in the BMW Vehicle Lease Trust 2021-1 (the “Trust”), the investor on whose behalf the undersigned is executing this letter (the “Purchaser”) confirms that:

    1.            The
        Purchaser has relied upon its own tax, legal and financial advisors in connection with its decision to purchase the Certificates.

    2.            The
        Purchaser is (A) a “Qualified Institutional Buyer” (as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”)) and has delivered to you a certificate substantially in the form attached hereto as Annex 1 or Annex
        2, as applicable and (B) acquiring the Certificates for its own account or for the account of an investor of the type described in clause (A) above as to each of which the Purchaser exercises sole investment discretion.  The Purchaser is purchasing
        the Certificates for investment purposes and not with a view to, or for, the offer or sale in connection with, a public distribution or in any other manner that would violate the 1933 Act or the securities or blue sky laws of any state.

    
      C-1

      
        


    

    3.            The
        Purchaser understands that the Certificates have not been and will not be registered under the 1933 Act or under the securities or blue sky laws of any state, and that (i) if it decides to resell, pledge or otherwise transfer any Certificate, such
        Certificate may be resold, pledged or transferred without registration only to an entity that has delivered to the Transferor and the Owner Trustee a certification that it is a Qualified Institutional Buyer that purchases (1) for its own account or
        (2) for the account of such a Qualified Institutional Buyer, that is, in either case, aware that the resale, pledge or transfer is being made in reliance on said Rule 144A and (ii) it will, and each subsequent holder will be required to, notify any
        purchaser of any Certificate from it of the resale restrictions referred to in clause (i) above.

    4.            The
        Purchaser understands that each of Certificate will bear a legend to the following effect, unless otherwise agreed by the Transferor and the Owner Trustee:

    “THIS TRUST CERTIFICATE HAS NOT BEEN AND WILL NOT BE REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “SECURITIES ACT”), OR UNDER ANY STATE SECURITIES OR
      BLUE SKY LAW.  THE HOLDER HEREOF, BY PURCHASING THIS TRUST CERTIFICATE, AGREES THAT THIS TRUST CERTIFICATE MAY BE REOFFERED, RESOLD, PLEDGED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED ONLY IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE SECURITIES ACT AND OTHER APPLICABLE LAWS AND ONLY
      PURSUANT TO RULE 144A UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT (“RULE 144A”) TO AN INSTITUTIONAL INVESTOR THAT THE HOLDER REASONABLY BELIEVES IS A QUALIFIED INSTITUTIONAL BUYER WITHIN THE MEANING OF RULE 144A (A “QIB”), PURCHASING FOR ITS OWN ACCOUNT OR A QIB
      PURCHASING FOR THE ACCOUNT OF A QIB, IN EACH CASE WHOM THE HOLDER HAS INFORMED THAT THE REOFFER, RESALE, PLEDGE OR OTHER TRANSFER IS BEING MADE IN RELIANCE ON RULE 144A SUBJECT TO THE RECEIPT BY THE OWNER TRUSTEE AND THE TRANSFEROR OF A LETTER
      SUBSTANTIALLY IN THE FORM PROVIDED IN THE TRUST AGREEMENT AND THE RECEIPT BY THE OWNER TRUSTEE AND THE TRANSFEROR OF SUCH OTHER EVIDENCE ACCEPTABLE TO THE OWNER TRUSTEE AND THE TRANSFEROR THAT SUCH REOFFER, RESALE, PLEDGE OR TRANSFER IS IN COMPLIANCE
      WITH THE SECURITIES ACT AND OTHER APPLICABLE LAWS OR IN EACH CASE IN ACCORDANCE WITH ALL APPLICABLE SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY STATE OF THE UNITED STATES AND ANY OTHER APPLICABLE JURISDICTION.  THIS CERTIFICATE MAY NOT BE PURCHASED OR HELD WITH PLAN
      ASSETS OF ANY OF (I) AN EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLAN, AS DEFINED IN SECTION 3(3) OF ERISA, THAT IS SUBJECT TO TITLE I OF ERISA, (II) A PLAN DESCRIBED IN SECTION 4975(e)(1) OF THE CODE, THAT IS SUBJECT TO SECTION 4975 OF THE CODE, (III) A GOVERNMENTAL OR
      CHURCH PLAN, AS DEFINED IN SECTIONS 3(32) AND 3(33) OF ERISA, RESPECTIVELY, SUBJECT TO ANY FEDERAL, STATE OR LOCAL LAW WHICH IS SUBSTANTIALLY SIMILAR TO THE PROVISIONS OF SECTION 406 OF ERISA OR SECTION 4975 OF THE CODE, (IV) AN ENTITY WHOSE
      UNDERLYING ASSETS INCLUDE PLAN ASSETS BY REASON OF A PLAN’S INVESTMENT IN THE ENTITY (WITHIN THE MEANING OF DEPARTMENT OF LABOR REGULATION 29 C.F.R. SECTION 2510.3‐101) OR (V) A PERSON

    
      C-2

      
        


    

    INVESTING “PLAN ASSETS” OF ANY SUCH PLAN OR ENTITY (EACH, A “BENEFIT PLAN”).  BY ACCEPTANCE OF THIS CERTIFICATE OR AN INTEREST THEREIN, THE HOLDER HEREOF SHALL BE
      DEEMED TO REPRESENT AND WARRANT THAT ITS ACQUISITION AND HOLDING IS IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE FOREGOING RESTRICTION ON BENEFIT PLAN ASSETS. THIS TRUST CERTIFICATE IS NOT TRANSFERABLE UNLESS THE PARTY TRANSFERRING THIS
        TRUST CERTIFICATE (EXCEPTING TRANSFERS BY THE INITIAL PURCHASER) DELIVERS TO THE OWNER TRUSTEE, THE TRANSFEROR, AND BNY MELLON TRUST OF DELAWARE, AS TRUSTEE OF FINANCIAL SERVICES VEHICLE TRUST (THE “VEHICLE
        TRUST”), AN OPINION OF COUNSEL STATING THE CIRCUMSTANCES AND CONDITIONS UPON WHICH THIS TRUST CERTIFICATE MAY BE TRANSFERRED AND THAT SUCH TRANSFER AS DESCRIBED THEREIN WILL NOT CAUSE EITHER THE ISSUER OR THE VEHICLE TRUST TO BE CHARACTERIZED AS AN
        ASSOCIATION OR A PUBLICLY TRADED PARTNERSHIP, IN EITHER CASE TAXABLE AS A CORPORATION FOR U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX PURPOSES.

    THIS TRUST CERTIFICATE IS NOT TRANSFERABLE EXCEPT IN THE EVENT OF THE DISSOLUTION, TERMINATION OR BANKRUPTCY OF BMW AUTO LEASING
      LLC WHEN IT IS HOLDER HEREOF, AND ANY TRANSFER IN VIOLATION OF THIS PROVISION SHALL BE NULL AND VOID.”

    5.            The
        Purchaser will be the beneficial owner of the Certificate and either (A) is not, and will not become, a partnership, Subchapter S corporation or grantor trust for U.S. federal income tax purposes or (B) is such an entity, but none of the direct or
        indirect beneficial owners of any of the interests in such transferee have allowed or caused, or will allow or cause, 50% or more (or such other percentage as the Transferor may establish prior to the time of such proposed transfer) of the value of
        such interests to be attributable to such transferee’s ownership of Certificates.

    6.            The
        Purchaser understands that no subsequent transfer of the Certificates is permitted unless (A) such transfer is of a Certificate with a Certificate Percentage Interest of at least 5%, (B) it causes its proposed transferee to provide to the
        Transferor, the Certificate Registrar and the Underwriter a letter substantially in the form of Exhibit C to the Trust Agreement, as applicable, or such other written statement as the Transferor shall prescribe and (C) the Transferor consents in
        writing to the proposed transfer, which consent shall be granted unless the Transferor determines that such transfer would create a risk that the Issuer or the Vehicle Trust would be characterized for U.S. federal or any applicable state tax
        purposes as an association or a publicly traded partnership, in either case taxable as a corporation; provided, however, that any attempted transfer that would either cause (1) the number of registered holders of Certificates, or trust certificates
        of any related issuer, in the aggregate to exceed 99 (provided that, each separate entity will be considered as a single registered holder, regardless of the number of trust certificates held by such entity) or (2) the number of holders of direct
        or indirect interests in the Vehicle Trust to exceed 50, shall be a void transfer.

    
      C-3

      
        


    

    7.            The
        Purchaser understands that the opinion of counsel to the Issuer that the Issuer is not a publicly traded partnership taxable as a corporation is dependent in part on the accuracy of the representations in paragraphs 5 and 6 above.

    8.            The
        Purchaser is a Person who is either (A)(1) a citizen or resident of the United States or (2) a corporation or partnership (including any entity treated as a corporation or partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes) organized in or under the
        laws of the United States, any state or the District of Columbia or (B) an estate the income of which is includible in gross income for U.S. federal income tax purposes regardless of source or a trust if the court within the United States is able
        to exercise primary supervision of the administration of the trust and one or more United States person(s) (as such term is defined in Section 7701(a)(30) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended)  have the authority to control all
        substantial decisions of the trust.  It agrees that it will provide a certification of non‐foreign status signed under penalty of perjury (and such other certifications, representations or Opinions of Counsel as may be requested by the Transferor,
        the Owner Trustee and the Certificate Registrar).

    9.            The
        Purchaser understands that no transfer of a Certificate or any interest therein shall be made unless each proposed transferee represents and warrants, with respect to itself and each proposed beneficial owner of the Certificate, that it is not a
        member of an “expanded group” (within the meaning of the Treasury Regulations issued under Section 385 of the Code) that includes a domestic corporation (as determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes) or a “controlled partnership” (within the
        meaning of Treasury Regulations issued under Section 385 of the Code) of such expanded group where any member of such “expanded group” directly or indirectly (through one or more entities that are treated for U.S. federal income tax purposes as
        partnerships, disregarded entities, or grantor trusts) owns Notes.

    10.            The
        Purchaser agrees that if at some time in the future it wishes to transfer or exchange any of the Certificates, it will not transfer or exchange any of the Certificates unless such transfer or exchange is in accordance with Section 3.04 of the Trust
        Agreement.  The Purchaser understands that any purported transfer of the Certificates (or any interest therein) in contravention of any of the restrictions and conditions in the Trust Agreement, as applicable, shall be a void, and the purported
        transferee in such transfer shall not be recognized by the Issuer or any other Person as a Certificateholder, as the case may, be for any purpose.

    11.            The
        Purchaser hereby irrevocably requests you to arrange for definitive Certificates representing the Certificates purchased by the Purchaser to be registered and delivered promptly after the date hereof as follows:
