*<u>Risk Factors</u>*

*<u>Risks Related to Legal and Regulatory Matters that Impact the Transaction</u>*

*<u>JDCC and its affiliates must comply with governmental laws and regulations that are subject to change and involve significant costs, page 25</u>*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*2.* *We note your description of risks presented by certain regulatory provisions, including a discussion of "ongoing rulemaking" by federal regulatory agencies to implement provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act and your statement that the "full impact of the Dodd-Frank Act... will not be known until such rulemaking has been completed and implemented." We also note, however, that, as of the adoption and implementation of Securities Act Rule 192 addressing conflicts of interest in certain securitizations, the applicable Dodd-Frank Act rules have all been adopted and implemented. Please revise your disclosure to reflect the current status of these rules and describe the specific risks presented by them.* 

<u>Response</u>: We have removed this portion of the disclosure on pg. 25 of the amended prospectus accordingly and have addressed Rule 192, specifically, separately therein.

*<u>The Depositor, The Sponsor and Servicer</u>*

*<u>John Deere Receivables LLC, page 33</u>*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*3.* *We note your bracketed disclosure for the "Eligible Vertical Interest Option" that the sponsor intends to satisfy its risk retention obligation under Regulation RR by causing the depositor to retain an eligible vertical interest in the form of [•]% of each class of notes. Please revise as necessary to clarify that any retained vertical interest will equal at least 5%, consistent with the descriptions of the "Combination Vertical and Horizontal Interest Option" and the "Eligible Horizontal Residual Interest Option."* 

<u>Response</u>: We have revised the disclosure for the "Eligible Vertical Interest Option" on page 62 of the amended prospectus to clarify that any retained vertical interest will equal at least 5%.

*<u>Description of the Transfer and Servicing Agreements, page 80</u>*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*4.* *We note your statements here and elsewhere throughout the prospectus that certain disclosure included in the prospectus does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by reference to, the provisions of the applicable transaction documents. As you are responsible for the accuracy and completeness of the information in the filing, this type of disclaimer is not appropriate. While disclosure may direct investors to read the entirety of the applicable documents for a more complete discussion, the description of the material terms of such documents must be complete. Please revise accordingly here and elsewhere in the prospectus as necessary.* 

<u>Response</u>: We have revised this disclosure on pg. 80 of the amended prospectus to remove any qualifying language with respect to the amended prospectus and underlying provisions in the operative transaction documents, consistent with market precedent.

*<u>Underwriting, page 109</u>*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*5.* *We note your disclosure on page 110 that the underwriters may create a short position in the offered notes or may reduce that short position by purchasing the offered notes in the open market. We also note the disclaimer that neither the depositor nor any of the underwriters makes any representation that the underwriters will engage in such transactions or that such transactions, once commenced, will not be discontinued without notice. Please explain how this disclosure is consistent with Securities Act Rule 192 or revise the disclosure to qualify it as subject to applicable law, including Rule 192.* 

<u>Response</u>: We have revised the disclosure on pg. 110 of the amended prospectus to qualify it as subject to applicable law, including Securities Act Rule 192.

We hope that the foregoing have been responsive to the Staff's comments. If you have any questions related to this letter, please contact the undersigned at (212) 341-7740.
