ITEM 16. FORM 10-K SUMMARY

None.

SUBSTITUTE INFORMATION INCLUDED IN
ACCORDANCE WITH GENERAL INSTRUCTION J TO FORM 10-K:

ITEM 1112(b) OF REGULATION AB. (SIGNIFICANT
OBLIGORS OF POOL ASSETS)

There is no single obligor that represents more than 10% of the pool assets.

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

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

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

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

ITEM 1117 OF REGULATION AB. (LEGAL PROCEEDINGS)

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

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

On June 18, 2014, a group of institutional investors filed a civil complaint in the Supreme
Court of the State of New York, New York County, against Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. (Wells Fargo Bank), in its capacity as trustee under 276 residential mortgage backed securities, (RMBS), trusts, which was later amended on
July 18, 2014, to increase the number of trusts to 284 RMBS trusts. On November 24, 2014, the plaintiffs filed a motion to voluntarily dismiss the state court action without prejudice. That same day, a group of institutional investors
filed a putative class action complaint in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (the District Court) against Wells Fargo Bank, alleging claims against the bank in its capacity as trustee for 274 RMBS
trusts, (the Federal Court Complaint). In December 2014, the plaintiffs motion to voluntarily dismiss their original state court action was granted. As with the prior state court action, the Federal Court Complaint is one of six
similar complaints filed contemporaneously against RMBS trustees (Deutsche Bank, Citibank, HSBC, Bank of New York Mellon and U.S. Bank) by a group of institutional investor plaintiffs. The Federal Court Complaint against Wells Fargo Bank alleges
that the trustee caused losses to investors and asserts causes of action based upon, among other things, the trustees alleged failure to: (i) notify and enforce repurchase obligations of mortgage loan sellers for purported breaches of
representations and warranties, (ii) notify investors of alleged events of default, and (iii) abide by appropriate standards of care following alleged events of default. Relief sought includes money damages in an unspecified amount,
reimbursement of expenses, and equitable relief. Other cases alleging similar causes of action have been filed against Wells Fargo Bank and other trustees in the District Court by RMBS investors in these and other transactions, and these cases
against Wells Fargo Bank are proceeding before the same District Court Judge. A similar complaint was also filed May 27, 2016 in New York state court by a different plaintiff investor. On January 19, 2016, an order was entered in
connection with the Federal Court Complaint in which the District Court declined to exercise jurisdiction over 261 trusts at issue in the Federal Court Complaint; the District Court also allowed plaintiffs to file amended complaints as to the
remaining, non-dismissed trusts, if they so chose, and three amended complaints have been filed. On December 17, 2016, the investor plaintiffs in the 261 trusts dismissed from the Federal Court Complaint
filed a new complaint in New York State Court. In September 2017, Royal Park Investments SA/NV (Royal Park), one of the plaintiffs in the District Court cases against Wells Fargo Bank, filed a putative class action complaint relating to
two trusts seeking declaratory and injunctive relief and money damages based on Wells Fargo Banks indemnification from trust funds for legal fees and expenses Wells Fargo Bank incurs or has incurred in defending the District Court case filed
by Royal Park.

With respect to the foregoing litigations, Wells Fargo Bank believes plaintiffs claims are without merit and intends to contest the
claims, but there can be no assurances as to the outcome of the litigations or the possible impact of the litigation on Wells Fargo Bank or the RMBS trusts.
