THIS ADMINISTRATION AGREEMENT
(this “Agreement”) dated as of September 21, 2016, is between USAA AUTO OWNER
Trust 2016-1, a Delaware statutory trust (the “Issuer”) and USAA FEDERAL SAVINGS BANK, a federally
chartered savings association, as administrator (the “Bank” or in its capacity as administrator, the “Administrator”),
and is acknowledged and agreed to by U.S.
Bank National Association, a national banking association, as indenture trustee (the “Indenture Trustee”).
Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings assigned such terms in Appendix A
to the Sale and Servicing Agreement, dated as of September 21, 2016 (the “Sale and Servicing Agreement”), by
and among USAA Acceptance, LLC, as seller, the Issuer, the Bank, as servicer, and the Indenture Trustee.


 


W I T N E S S E T H :


 


WHEREAS, the Issuer has
issued the Notes pursuant to the Indenture and the Certificate pursuant to the Trust Agreement and has entered into certain agreements
in connection therewith, including, (i) the Sale and Servicing Agreement, (ii) the Indenture, (iii) the Asset Representations Review
Agreement and (iv) the Note Depository Agreement (the Trust Agreement and each of the agreements referred to in clauses (i)
through (iv) are referred to herein collectively as the “Issuer Documents”);


 


WHEREAS, to secure payment
of the Notes, the Issuer has pledged the Collateral to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to the Indenture;


 


WHEREAS, pursuant to the
Issuer Documents, the Issuer and the Owner Trustee are required to perform certain duties;


 


WHEREAS, the Issuer and
the Owner Trustee desire to have the Administrator administer the affairs of the issuer and perform certain of the duties of the
Issuer and the Owner Trustee (in its capacity as owner trustee under the Trust Agreement), and to provide such additional services
consistent with this Agreement and the Issuer Documents as the Issuer may from time to time request;


 


WHEREAS, the Administrator
has the capacity to provide the services required hereby and is willing to perform such services for the Issuer and the Owner Trustee
on the terms set forth herein;


 


NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration
of the mutual terms and covenants contained herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which
are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:


 


1. Duties
of the Administrator.



 


(a) Duties with
Respect to the Issuer Documents. The Administrator shall perform all of its duties as Administrator under this Agreement and
the Issuer Documents and administer and perform all of the duties and obligations of the Issuer and the Owner Trustee (in its capacity
as owner trustee under the Trust Agreement) under the Issuer Documents; provided, however, except as otherwise provided
in the Issuer Documents, that the Administrator shall have no obligation to make any payment required to be made



    	 



    	



    

by the Issuer under
any Issuer Document; provided, further, that the Administrator shall have no obligation, and the Owner Trustee shall
be required to fully perform its duties, with respect to the obligations of the Owner Trustee under Sections 11.13, 11.14
and 11.15 of the Trust Agreement and to otherwise comply with the requirements of the Owner Trustee pursuant to or related
to Regulation AB. In addition, the Administrator shall consult with the Issuer and the Owner Trustee regarding its duties and obligations
under the Issuer Documents. The Administrator shall monitor the performance of the Issuer and the Owner Trustee and shall advise
the Issuer and the Owner Trustee in writing when action is necessary to comply with the Issuer’s and the Owner Trustee’s
duties and obligations under the Issuer Documents. The Administrator shall perform such calculations, and shall prepare for execution
by the Issuer or the Owner Trustee or shall cause the preparation by other appropriate Persons of all such documents, reports,
filings, instruments, certificates, notices and opinions as it shall be the duty of the Issuer or the Owner Trustee (in its capacity
as owner trustee under the Trust Agreement) to prepare, file or deliver pursuant to the Issuer Documents. In furtherance of the
foregoing, the Administrator shall take all appropriate action that is the duty of the Issuer or the Owner Trustee (in its capacity
as owner trustee under the Trust Agreement) to take pursuant to the Issuer Documents, and shall prepare, execute, file and deliver
on behalf of the Issuer or the Owner Trustee all such documents, reports, filings, instruments, certificates, notices and opinions
as it shall be the duty of the Issuer or the Owner Trustee to prepare, file or deliver pursuant to the Issuer Documents or otherwise
by law.


 


(b) Notices
to Rating Agencies. The Administrator shall give notice to each Rating Agency of (i) any merger or consolidation of the Owner
Trustee pursuant to Section 10.4 of the Trust Agreement; (ii) any merger or consolidation of the Indenture Trustee pursuant
to Section 6.9 of the Indenture; (iii) any resignation or removal of the Indenture Trustee pursuant to Section 6.8
of the Indenture; (iv) any Default or Event of Default of which it has been provided notice pursuant to Section 6.5 of the
Indenture; (v) the termination of, and/or appointment of a successor to, the Servicer pursuant to Section 7.1 of the Sale
and Servicing Agreement; and (vi) any supplemental indenture pursuant to Section 9.1 or 9.2 of the Indenture; which
notice shall be given in the case of each of clauses (i) through (vi), promptly upon the Administrator being
notified thereof by the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee or the Servicer, as applicable.


 


(c) No Action
by Administrator. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Administrator shall not be obligated to,
and shall not, take any action that the Issuer directs the Administrator not to take or which would result in a violation or breach
of the Issuer’s covenants, agreements or obligations under any of the Issuer Documents.


 


(d) 
Non-Ministerial Matters; Exceptions to Administrator Duties.


 



(i) Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this Agreement, with respect to matters that in the reasonable judgment of the Administrator are non-ministerial,
the Administrator shall not take any action unless, within a reasonable time before the taking of such action, the Administrator
shall have notified the Issuer of the proposed action and the Issuer shall not have withheld consent or


 

	 	2	 



    	 



    	



    

 provided an alternative
direction. For the purpose of the preceding sentence, “non-ministerial matters” shall include, without limitation:


 


(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;


 


(B) the appointment
of successor Note Registrars, successor Paying Agents, successor Indenture Trustees, successor Administrators or successor Servicers,
or the consent to the assignment by the Note Registrar, the Paying Agent or the Indenture Trustee of its obligations under the
Indenture; and


 


(C) the removal
of the Indenture Trustee.


 


(ii) Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Administrator shall not be obligated to, and shall not, (x) make any payments to
the Noteholders under the Transaction Documents, (y) except as provided in the Transaction Documents, sell the Trust Estate or
(z) take any other action that the Issuer directs the Administrator not to take on its behalf.


 


2.
Records. The Administrator shall maintain appropriate books of account and
records relating to services performed hereunder, which books of account and records shall be accessible for inspection upon reasonable
written request by the Issuer, the Seller and the Indenture Trustee at any time during normal business hours.


 


3.
Compensation; Payment of Fees and Expenses. As compensation for the performance
of the Administrator’s obligations under this Agreement and as reimbursement for its expenses related thereto, the Administrator
shall be entitled to receive $2,000 annually, which shall be solely an obligation of the Servicer. The Administrator shall pay
all expenses incurred by it in connection with its activities hereunder and all expenses incurred in connection with the removal,
resignation and replacement of the Indenture Trustee pursuant to Section 6.8
of the Indenture.


 


4.
Independence of the Administrator. For all purposes of this Agreement, the
Administrator shall be an independent contractor and shall not be subject to the supervision of the Issuer with respect to the
manner in which it accomplishes the performance of its obligations hereunder. Unless expressly authorized by the Issuer, the Administrator
shall have no authority to act for or to represent the Issuer in any way (other than as permitted hereunder) and shall not otherwise
be deemed an agent of the Issuer.


 


5.
No Joint Venture. Nothing contained in this Agreement (i) shall constitute
the Administrator and the Issuer as members of any partnership, joint venture, association, syndicate, unincorporated business
or other separate entity, (ii) shall be construed to impose any liability as such on the Administrator or the Issuer or (iii) shall
be deemed to confer on the Administrator or the Issuer any express, implied or apparent authority to incur any obligation or liability
on behalf of the other.


 


6.
Other Activities of the Administrator. Nothing herein shall prevent the
Administrator or its Affiliates from engaging in other businesses or, in its sole discretion, from 


 


	 	3	 



    	 



    	



    

acting in a similar capacity
as an Administrator for any other Person even though such Person may engage in business activities similar to those of the Issuer,
the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee.


 


7.
Representations and Warranties of the Administrator. The Administrator represents
and warrants to the Issuer as follows:



 


(a) Existence
and Power. The Administrator is a federally chartered savings association validly existing and in good standing under the laws
of the United States and has, in all material respects, all power and authority to carry on its business as now conducted. The
Administrator has obtained all necessary licenses and approvals in each jurisdiction where the failure to do so would materially
and adversely affect the ability of the Administrator to perform its obligations under the Transaction Documents or affect the
enforceability or collectibility of the Receivables or any other part of the Collateral.


 


(b) Authorization
and No Contravention. The execution, delivery and performance by the Administrator of the Transaction Documents to which it
is a party (i) have been duly authorized by all necessary action on the part of the Administrator and (ii) do not contravene or
constitute a default under (A) any applicable law, rule or regulation, (B) its organizational documents or (C) any material agreement,
contract, order or other instrument to which it is a party or its property is subject (other than violations which do not affect
the legality, validity or enforceability of any of such agreements and which, individually or in the aggregate, would not materially
and adversely affect the transactions contemplated by, or the Administrator’s ability to perform its obligations under, the
Transaction Documents).


 


(c) No Consent
Required. No approval or authorization by, or filing with, any Governmental Authority is required in connection with the execution,
delivery and performance by the Administrator of any Transaction Document other than (i) UCC filings, (ii) approvals and authorizations
that have previously been obtained and filings that have previously been made and (iii) approvals, authorizations or filings which,
if not obtained or made, would not have a material adverse effect on the enforceability or collectibility of the Receivables or
any other part of the Collateral or would not materially and adversely affect the ability of the Administrator to perform its obligations
under the Transaction Documents.


 


(d) Binding
Effect. Each Transaction Document to which the Administrator is a party constitutes the legal, valid and binding obligation
of the Administrator enforceable against the Administrator in accordance with its terms, except as such enforceability may be limited
by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium, receivership, conservatorship or other similar laws affecting
the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and, if applicable, the rights of creditors of federally chartered savings
associations from time to time in effect or by general principles of equity.


 


8.
Administrator Replacement Events; Termination of the Administrator.


 


	 	4	 



    	 



    	



    

(a) Subject to
clause (d) below, the Administrator may resign its duties hereunder by providing the Issuer with at least sixty (60) days’
prior written notice.


 


(b) [Reserved].


 


(c) The occurrence
of any one of the following events (each, an “Administrator Replacement Event”) shall also entitle the Issuer,
subject to Section 20 hereof, to terminate and replace the Administrator:


 


(i) any failure
by the Administrator to deliver or cause to be delivered any required payment to the Indenture Trustee for distribution to the
Noteholders, which failure continues unremedied for five Business Days after discovery thereof by a Responsible Officer of the
Administrator or receipt by the Administrator of written notice thereof from the Indenture Trustee or Noteholders evidencing at
least a majority of the Outstanding Note Balance, voting together as a single class;


 


(ii) any failure
by the Administrator to duly observe or perform in any material respect any other of its covenants or agreements in this Agreement,
which failure materially and adversely affects the rights of the Issuer or the Noteholders, and which continues unremedied for
90 days after discovery thereof by a Responsible Officer of the Administrator or receipt by the Administrator of written notice
thereof from the Indenture Trustee or Noteholders evidencing at least a majority of the Outstanding Note Balance, voting together
as a single class;


 


(iii) any representation
or warranty of the Administrator made in any Transaction Document to which the Administrator is a party or by which it is bound
or any certificate delivered pursuant to this Agreement proves to have been incorrect in any material respect when made, which
failure materially and adversely affects the rights of the Issuer or the Noteholders, and which failure continues unremedied for
90 days after discovery thereof by a Responsible Officer of the Administrator or receipt by the Administrator of written notice
thereof from the Indenture Trustee or Noteholders evidencing at least a majority of the Outstanding Note Balance, voting together
as a single class (it being understood that any repurchase of a Receivable by the Bank pursuant to Section 3.4 of the Purchase
Agreement or by the Servicer pursuant to Section 3.6 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement shall be deemed to remedy any incorrect
representation or warranty with respect to such Receivable); or


 


(iv) the Administrator
suffers an Insolvency Event;


 


provided, however, that
a delay in or failure of performance referred to under clause (i) above for a period of 90 days will not constitute an Administrator
Replacement Event if such delay or failure was caused by force majeure or other similar occurrence as certified by the Administrator
in an Officer’s Certificate of the Administrator delivered to the Indenture Trustee.


 


(d) If an Administrator
Replacement Event shall have occurred, the Issuer may, subject to Section 20 hereof, by notice given to the Administrator,
the Owner


 

	 	5	 




    	 



    	



    

Trustee and the
Indenture Trustee, terminate all or a portion of the rights and powers of the Administrator under this Agreement, including the
rights of the Administrator to receive the annual fee for services hereunder for all periods following such termination; provided,
however, that such termination shall not become effective until such time as the Issuer, subject to Section 20 hereof,
shall have appointed a successor Administrator in the manner set forth below. Upon any such termination or upon a resignation of
the Administrator in accordance with Section 8(a) hereof, all rights, powers, duties and responsibilities of the Administrator
under this Agreement shall vest in and be assumed by any successor Administrator appointed by the Issuer, subject to Section
20 hereof, pursuant to a management agreement between the Issuer and such successor Administrator, containing substantially
the same provisions as this Agreement (including with respect to the compensation of such successor Administrator), and the successor
Administrator is hereby irrevocably authorized and empowered to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Administrator, as attorney-in-fact
or otherwise, all documents and other instruments, and to do or accomplish all other acts or things necessary or appropriate to
effect such vesting and assumption. Further, in such event, the Administrator shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to
effect the orderly and efficient transfer of the administration of the Issuer to the new Administrator. No resignation or removal
of the Administrator shall be effective until a successor Administrator shall have been appointed by the Issuer.


 


(e) The Issuer,
subject to Section 20 hereof, may waive in writing any Administrator Replacement Event by the Administrator in the performance
of its obligations hereunder and its consequences. Upon any such waiver of a past Administrator Replacement Event, such Administrator
Replacement Event shall cease to exist, and any Administrator Replacement Event arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been
remedied for every purpose of this Agreement. No such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Administrator Replacement
Event or impair any right consequent thereon.


 


9.
Action upon Termination or Removal. Promptly upon the effective date of
termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 8, or the removal or resignation
of the Administrator pursuant to Section 8, the Administrator shall be entitled
to be paid by the Seller all fees and reimbursable expenses accruing to it to the date of such termination or removal.


 


10.
Liens. The Administrator will not directly or indirectly create, allow or
suffer to exist any Lien on the Collateral other than Permitted Liens.


 


11.
Notices. All demands, notices and communications hereunder shall be in writing
and shall be delivered or mailed by registered or certified first-class United States mail, postage prepaid, hand delivery, prepaid
courier service, by facsimile or, if so provided on Schedule I to the Sale
and Servicing Agreement, by electronic transmission, and addressed in each case as specified on Schedule I
to the Sale and Servicing Agreement or at such other address as shall be designated by any of the specified addressees in a written
notice to the other parties hereto. Delivery will be deemed to have been given and made: (i) upon delivery or, in the case of a
letter mailed by registered or certified first-class United States mail, postage prepaid, three days after deposit in the mail,
(ii) in the case of a facsimile, when receipt is confirmed by telephone, reply


 

	 	6	 



    	 



    	



    

 email or reply facsimile from the recipient, (iii)
in the case of electronic transmission, when receipt is confirmed by telephone or reply email from the recipient and (iv) in the
case of an electronic posting to a password-protected website to which the recipient has been provided access, upon delivery (without
the requirement of confirmation of receipt) and notice (including email) to such recipient stating that such electronic posting
has occurred.


 


12. Amendments.

provision of this Agreement may be amended by the Administrator without the consent of the Indenture Trustee, any Noteholder, the
Issuer, the Owner Trustee or any other Person subject to the satisfaction of one of the following conditions:


 


(i) the Administrator
delivers to the Indenture Trustee (a) an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such amendment will not materially and adversely
affect the interests of the Noteholders; and (b) an Officer’s Certificate of the Administrator to the effect that such amendment

not less than a majority of the Outstanding Note Balance of the Controlling Class, 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. It will not be necessary for the consent of Noteholders to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment or
consent, but it will be sufficient if such consent approves the substance thereof. The manner of obtaining such consents (and any
other consents of Noteholders provided for in this Agreement) and of evidencing the authorization of the execution thereof by Noteholders
will be subject to such reasonable requirements as the Indenture Trustee may prescribe, including the establishment of record dates
pursuant to the Note Depository Agreement.


 


(c) Prior to the
execution of any amendment pursuant to this Section 12, the Administrator shall provide written notification of the substance
of such amendment to each Rating Agency and the Owner Trustee; and promptly after the execution of any such amendment or consent,
the Administrator shall furnish a copy of such amendment or consent to each Rating Agency, the Owner Trustee and the Indenture
Trustee; provided, that no amendment pursuant to this Section 12 shall be effective which affects the rights, protections
or duties of the Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee without the prior written consent of such Person (which consent shall not
be unreasonably withheld or delayed).

receive and conclusively rely upon an Opinion of Counsel stating that the execution of such amendment is authorized or permitted
by this Agreement and that all conditions precedent to the execution and delivery of such amendment have been satisfied. The Owner
Trustee and the Indenture Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, enter into or execute on behalf of the Issuer any such amendment
which adversely affects the Owner Trustee’s or the Indenture Trustee’s, as applicable, own rights, privileges, indemnities,
duties or obligations under this Agreement.

 Agreement,

the Noteholders, any benefit or any legal or equitable right, remedy or claim under this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt,

and (ii) such party shall not commence, join with any other Person in commencing or institute with any other Person any Proceeding
against such Bankruptcy Remote Party under any bankruptcy, reorganization, liquidation or insolvency law or statute now or hereafter
in effect in any jurisdiction; provided, that the foregoing shall in no way limit the rights of the parties hereto to pursue
any other creditor rights or remedies that such Persons may have against the Issuer under applicable law.

herein to the contrary, this Agreement has been executed and delivered by Wells Fargo Delaware Trust Company, National Association,
