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)

As
a consumer finance company, the sponsor is subject to various consumer claims and litigation seeking damages and statutory penalties, based upon, among other things, usury, disclosure inaccuracies, wrongful repossession, violations of bankruptcy
stay provisions, certificate of title disputes, fraud, breach of contract and discriminatory treatment of credit applicants. Some litigation against the sponsor could take the form of class action complaints by consumers and certain legal actions
include claims for substantial compensatory and/or punitive damages or claims for indeterminate amounts of damages.

In July 2014, in connection with an
investigation by the U.S. Department of Justice in contemplation of a civil proceeding for potential violations of the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery, and Enforcement Act of 1989, General Motors Financial Company, Inc. (General Motors
Financial), immediate parent of the sponsor, was served with a subpoena by the U.S. Department of Justice directing it to produce certain documents relating to its and its subsidiaries and affiliates origination and securitization
of subprime automobile loans since 2007. Among other matters, the subpoena requests information relating to the underwriting criteria used to originate these automobile loans and the representations and warranties relating to those underwriting
criteria that were made in connection with the securitization of the automobile loans. General Motors Financial has subsequently been served with additional investigative subpoenas to produce documents from state attorneys general and other
governmental offices relating to its retail auto loan business and securitization of auto loans. In October 2014, General Motors Financial received a document request from the Securities and Exchange Commission in connection with its investigation
into certain practices in subprime auto loan securitization. These investigations are ongoing and could in the future result in the imposition of damages, fines or civil or criminal claims and/or penalties.

No assurance can be given that the ultimate outcome of the investigations or any resulting proceedings would not materially and adversely affect General
Motors Financial or any of its subsidiaries and affiliates, including the servicer, or the interests of the noteholders or the servicers ability to perform its duties under the transaction documents.

In the ordinary course of business, The Bank of New York Mellon is named as a defendant in or made a party to pending and potential legal actions. In
connection with its role as trustee of certain residential mortgage-backed securitization, or RMBS, transactions, The Bank of New York Mellon has been named as a defendant in a number of legal actions brought by RMBS investors. These lawsuits allege
that the trustee had expansive duties under the governing agreements, including the duty to investigate and pursue breach of representation and warranty claims against other parties to the RMBS transactions. While it is inherently difficult to
predict the eventual outcomes of pending actions, The Bank of New York Mellon denies liability and intends to defend the litigations vigorously.
