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




Item 1119 of Regulation AB, Affiliations and Certain Relationships and Related Transactions




The Sponsor originates all of the pool assets owned by the Issuing Entity (in such capacity, the “Originator”) and services the pool assets.  The Depositor is a wholly-owned subsidiary of NMAC (including in its role as originator, servicer and sponsor).  Through its purchase of the Certificates, the Depositor has acquired a 100% ownership interest in the Issuing Entity; therefore, the Issuing Entity is an affiliated party of the Depositor and, indirectly, of the Sponsor (including in its role as originator and servicer).




The Indenture Trustee is not affiliated with the Sponsor (including in its role as originator and servicer), the Depositor or the Issuing Entity.




There are no significant obligors, external enhancement or support providers, or other material parties related to the Notes or Certificates.




In addition, there are no business relationships, agreements, arrangements, transactions or understandings outside the ordinary course of business or on terms other than would be obtained in an arm’s length transaction with an unrelated party, apart from this asset-backed securities transaction involving the issuance of the Notes and Certificates by the Issuing Entity, between the Sponsor, the Depositor or the Issuing Entity and any of the parties, or affiliates of such parties, mentioned in this Item.




Item 1122 of Regulation AB, Compliance with applicable Servicing Criteria




The Servicer and the Indenture Trustee (collectively, the “Servicing Parties”) have each been identified by the Depositor as parties participating in the servicing function with respect to the asset pool held by the Issuing Entity.  Each of the Servicing Parties has completed a report on an assessment of compliance with the servicing criteria set forth in paragraph (d) of Item 1122 of Regulation AB applicable to it (each, a “Servicing Assessment Report”), which Servicing Assessment Reports are attached as exhibits to this Form 10-K.  In addition, each of the Servicer and the Indenture Trustee has provided an attestation report (each, an “Attestation Report”) by a registered public accounting firm, which reports are also attached as exhibits to this Form 10-K.  Neither the Indenture Trustee’s Servicing Assessment Report nor the Indenture Trustee’s Attestation Report has identified any material instance of noncompliance with the servicing criteria applicable to the Indenture Trustee.




The Servicer has complied, in all material respects, with the Applicable Servicing Criteria.




Item 1123 of Regulation AB, Servicer Compliance Statement




The Servicer has completed a statement of compliance with its activities during the reporting period and of its performance under the applicable servicing agreement (a “Compliance Statement”), signed by an authorized officer of the Servicer.  The Compliance Statement is attached as Exhibit 35.1 to this Form 10-K.
