In furtherance thereof, the provisions of Sections 6.2, 6.3, 6.4, 6.5, 6.6, 7.3, 7.4, 7.5, 7.6 and 7.8 of the Vehicle Trust Agreement are hereby incorporated herein by reference thereto; provided, however, that all references to the Beneficiary shall be deemed to reference the UTI Beneficiary, all references to Trust Assets shall be deemed to reference the 2007-1 SUBI Assets and all references to the Vehicle Trust shall, for the avoidance of doubt, be deemed to refer to the Vehicle Trust with respect to the 2007-1 SUBI; and provided, further, that such provisions of the Vehicle Trust Agreement shall be construed by the parties hereto in a manner that gives effect to the intent thereof within the context of the related applicable provisions hereof.

The 2007-1 SUBI Certificate shall be printed, typewritten, photocopied or may be produced in any other manner as may, consistently herewith and with the Vehicle Trust Agreement, be determined by the UTI Beneficiary.  The 2007-1 SUBI Certificate and the interest in the 2007-1 SUBI evidenced thereby shall constitute a “security” within the meaning of Section 8-102(a)(15) of the UCC and a “certificated security” within the meaning of Section 8-102(a)(4) of the UCC.

On the Closing Date, pursuant to Section 4.1 hereof , the Indenture Trustee shall, and thereafter for so long as the lien of the Indenture is in place, be registered as the Registered Pledgee of the 2007-1 SUBI Certificate held by the Issuer and pledged as part of the Trust Estate to secure the Issuer’s obligations under the Indenture.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Issuer shall be entitled to exercise any and all rights or powers of a Holder hereunder, in the absence of an Event of Default (as defined in the Indenture) under the Indenture.

As required by Section 5.2(b) of the Vehicle Trust Agreement, the 2007-1 SUBI Certificate shall contain an express written waiver of any claim by any Holder to any proceeds or assets of the Vehicle Trustee and to all of the Trust Assets other than those from time to time included within the 2007-1 SUBI Portfolio as 2007-1 SUBI Assets and those proceeds or assets derived from or earned by such 2007-1 SUBI Assets.

The UTI Beneficiary and the Vehicle Trustee at the written direction and expense of the Servicer, shall undertake all future actions and activities as may be deemed reasonably necessary by the Servicer pursuant to the Servicing Agreement to perfect (or evidence) and confirm the initial creation of and allocation of Trust Assets to the 2007-1 SUBI, including without limitation preparing UCC financing statements to be filed by the Servicer and executing and delivering all related filings, documents or writings as may be deemed reasonably necessary by the Servicer hereunder or under any other Basic Document.  The UTI Beneficiary hereby irrevocably makes and appoints each of the Vehicle Trustee and the Servicer, and any of their respective officers, employees or agents, as the true and lawful attorney-in-fact of the UTI Beneficiary (which appointment is coupled with an interest and is irrevocable) with power to sign on behalf of the UTI Beneficiary any financing statements, continuation statements, security agreements, mortgages, assignments, affidavits, letters of authority, notices or similar documents necessary or appropriate to be executed or filed pursuant to this Section.

2.5

Termination of the 2007-1 SUBI.

(a)

In connection with any purchase by the Servicer of the corpus of the Issuer pursuant to Section 2.19 of the Servicing Agreement, the succession of the Servicer to the interest in the 2007-1 SUBI represented by the 2007-1 SUBI Certificate, should all of the interest in the 2007-1 SUBI thereafter be held by the Holder or Holders of the UTI Certificates, whether by transfer, sale or otherwise, then upon the direction of such Holders, the 2007-1 SUBI shall be terminated, the 2007-1 SUBI Certificate shall be returned to the Vehicle Trustee and canceled and the Servicer shall reallocate all 2007-1 SUBI Assets to the UTI.

(b)

Upon the sale of the Trust Estate pursuant to Section 5.04 of the Indenture, the Indenture Trustee may direct the Issuer promptly to sell the Trust Estate, including the 2007-1 SUBI Assets (other than amounts on deposit in the Distribution Accounts), in a commercially reasonable manner and on commercially reasonable terms.  In connection with any such sale, or the sale of the Trust Estate pursuant to Section 5.04 of the Indenture, the 2007-1 SUBI Assets shall be distributed out of the Vehicle Trust  at the direction of the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee, as applicable, and the purchaser shall take delivery of such 2007-1 SUBI Assets.  The Vehicle Trustee and the other parties hereto shall reasonably cooperate with the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee, as applicable, to cause the related 2007-1 Vehicles to be retitled as directed by the purchaser.  Following such sale, this Supplement shall terminate and the 2007-1 SUBI shall be terminated; provided however such termination shall affect the Vehicle Trust  only insofar as such termination relates to the 2007-1 SUBI.  Such termination shall not entitle the legal representatives of the 2007-1 SUBI or any Holder of the 2007-1 SUBI Certificate to take any action for a partition or winding up of the Trust or any Trust Assets except with respect to the 2007-1 SUBI Assets and the rights, obligations and liabilities of the parties hereto shall not otherwise be affected.  Promptly after the occurrence of any bankruptcy, insolvency or termination proceeding with respect to the Issuer, the Issuer shall give the Indenture Trustee, the Owner Trustee, the Vehicle Trustee and the Rating Agencies written notice of such event.  The proceeds of such sale shall be distributed by the Indenture Trustee, as set forth in Section 5.04 of the Indenture.

2.6

FINANCIAL SERVICES VEHICLE TRUST

2007-1 SPECIAL UNIT OF BENEFICIAL INTEREST CERTIFICATE

No. R-___

evidencing a fractional undivided interest in all 2007-1 SUBI Assets (as defined below).

This 2007-1 Special Unit of Beneficial Interest Certificate does not represent an interest in or obligation of BMW Financial Services NA, LLC, The Bank of New York (Delaware) or any of their respective affiliates, except to the extent described below.

THIS CERTIFIES THAT ________________ is the registered owner of a nonassessable, fully-paid, undivided interest in the 2007-1 SUBI Assets owned by Financial Services Vehicle Trust (the “Trust”).

The Trust was created pursuant to a trust agreement, dated as of August 30, 1995, as amended, supplemented or restated from time to time (the “Vehicle Trust Agreement”), among BMW Manufacturing L.P. (“BMW LP”), as grantor and initial beneficiary (in such capacities, the “Grantor” and the “UTI Beneficiary”, respectively), and The Bank of New York (Delaware), as trustee (the “Vehicle Trustee”).

This certificate is a duly authorized 2007-1 SUBI Certificate, and is issued under and is subject to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Vehicle Trust Agreement and the 2007-1 vehicle trust supplement thereto, dated as of November 2, 2007 (the “2007-1 SUBI Supplement” and, together with the Vehicle Trust Agreement, the “SUBI Trust Agreement”).  To the extent not otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms used herein have the meanings assigned thereto in the SUBI Trust Agreement.  By acceptance of this 2007-1 SUBI Certificate, the Holder hereof assents to the terms and conditions of the SUBI Trust Agreement and agrees to be bound thereby.  A summary of certain of the pertinent provisions of the SUBI Trust Agreement is set forth below.

The assets of the Trust allocated to the 2007-1 SUBI will generally consist of (i) cash capital, (ii) the 2007-1 Leases and (iii) the 2007-1 Vehicles and all of the Trust’s rights thereunder, including the right to proceeds arising therefrom or in connection therewith.

Under the Vehicle Trust Agreement, from time to time the UTI Beneficiary may direct the Vehicle Trustee to issue to or upon the order of the UTI Beneficiary one or more certificates (each, a “ SUBI Certificate”) representing a beneficial interest in certain specified Vehicles, Leases and related Trust Assets (such assets, the “SUBI Assets”).  Upon the issuance of the SUBI Certificates relating to the SUBI Assets, the beneficial interest in the Trust and the Trust Assets represented by the UTI shall be reduced by the amount of the Trust Assets represented by such SUBI Certificates.  This certificate evidences an interest in all 2007-1 SUBI Assets, was issued pursuant to the 2007-1 SUBI Supplement and represents a beneficial interest in the 2007-1 SUBI Assets.

The UTI and the 2007-1 SUBI shall each constitute a separate series of the Trust pursuant to Section 3806(b)(2) of the Business Trust Statute for which separate and distinct records shall be maintained.  The 2007-1 SUBI Certificate and the interest in the 2007-1 SUBI represented thereby constitutes a “security” within the meaning of Section 8-102(a)(15) of the UCC and a “certificated security” within the meaning of Section 8-102(a)(4) of the UCC.

The 2007-1 SUBI Supplement may be amended by the parties thereto upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the 2007-1 SUBI Supplement.

The Holder, by acceptance of this 2007-1 SUBI Certificate, covenants and agrees that prior to the date that is one year and one day after the date upon which all obligations under each Securitized Financing have been paid in full, it will not institute against, or join any other Person in instituting against any Grantor, the Vehicle Trustee, the Trust, any Beneficiary, any general partner of a Beneficiary or of a Special Purpose Affiliate that is a partnership or any member of a Beneficiary or Special Purpose Affiliate (or any of their respective general partners) that is a limited liability company, any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation Proceeding or other Proceedings under any federal or state bankruptcy or similar law.  Such covenant shall survive the termination of the SUBI Trust Agreement, the resignation or removal of the Vehicle Trustee under the SUBI Trust Agreement or the complete or partial resignation of the Servicer.

The Holder hereof or owner of a beneficial interest herein hereby (i) expressly waives any claim it may have to any proceeds or assets of the Vehicle Trustee and to all of the Trust Assets other than those from time to time included within the 2007-1 SUBI as 2007-1 SUBI Assets and those proceeds or assets derived from or earned by such 2007-1 SUBI Assets and (ii) expressly subordinates in favor of the Holder of any Other SUBI Certificate or a UTI Certificate any claim to any Other SUBI or UTI Assets that, notwithstanding the waiver contained in clause (i), may be determined to exist.

The Vehicle Trustee shall keep the certificate register with respect to this 2007-1 SUBI Certificate, and the Holder of this 2007-1 SUBI Certificate shall notify the Vehicle Trustee of any change of address or instructions on the distribution of funds.

Upon the dissolution of the Trust with respect to the 2007-1 SUBI, the 2007-1 SUBI shall be terminated and the 2007-1 SUBI Certificates shall be returned to the Vehicle Trustee for cancellation.  Such a termination shall not effect a termination of the Trust or of any Other SUBIs that is in existence at the time of such termination.

The Trust or the UTI may terminate upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the SUBI Trust Agreement.

No SUBI or SUBI Certificate shall be transferred or assigned except to the extent specified in the SUBI Trust Agreement or in any related Supplement and, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any such purported transfer or assignment other than as so specified shall be deemed null, void and of no effect under the SUBI Trust Agreement.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the SUBI Certificate and the interest in the SUBI evidenced thereby may be (i) transferred, assigned or pledged to any Special Purpose Affiliate or (ii) transferred, assigned or pledged by the Related Beneficiary or a Special Purpose Affiliate to or in favor of (A) a trustee for one or more trusts or (B) one or more other entities, in either case solely for the purpose of securing or otherwise facilitating one or more Securitized Financings.

This 2007-1 SUBI Certificate shall be governed by and construed under the internal laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to any otherwise applicable principles of conflict of laws.

Unless this 2007-1 SUBI Certificate shall have been executed by an authorized officer of the Vehicle Trustee, by manual signature, this 2007-1 SUBI Certificate shall not entitle the holder hereof to any benefit under the SUBI Trust Agreement or be valid for any purpose.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, The Bank of New York (Delaware), as Vehicle Trustee of the Trust and not in its individual capacity, has caused this 2007-1 SUBI Certificate to be duly executed.

TRANSFER OF 2007-1 SUBI CERTIFICATE

Section 2.01.

Transfer of 2007-1 SUBI Certificate.

(a)

In consideration of the Transferee’s delivery to, or upon the order of, the Transferor of cash in the amount of $1,248,391,261 (the “Transfer Price”), the Transferor does hereby absolutely sell, transfer, assign and otherwise convey to the Transferee, without recourse, and the Transferee does hereby purchase and acquire, as of the date set forth above, all of the following (collectively, the “Assets”):

(i)

all right, title and interest in and to the 2007-1 SUBI Certificate and the related interests in the 2007-1 SUBI represented thereby, including all monies due and paid thereon or in respect thereof;

(ii)

the beneficial rights evidenced thereby in any property that underlies or may be deemed to secure the respective interests in the 2007-1 SUBI represented by the 2007-1 SUBI Certificate;

(iii)

all of the Transferor’s rights and benefits, as Holder of the 2007-1 SUBI Certificate under the Servicing Agreement and the SUBI Trust Agreement; and

(iv)

all proceeds of the foregoing.

(b)

The parties hereto intend that the sale, transfer and assignment of the Assets constitute a true sale and assignment of the Assets such that any interest in and title to the Assets would not be property of the Transferor’s estate in the event the Transferor becomes a debtor in a case under any bankruptcy law.  To the extent that the conveyance of the Assets hereunder is characterized by a court or similar governmental authority as a financing, it is intended by the Transferor and the Transferee that the interest conveyed constitute a first priority grant of a perfected security interest under the UCC as in effect in the State of New York by the Transferor to the Transferee to secure the Transfer Price to the Transferor.

Schedule I

Perfection Representations, Warranties and Covenants 

In addition to the representations, warranties and covenants contained in the SUBI Certificate Transfer Agreement, BMW Manufacturing, L.P., as transferor (the “Transferor”), hereby represents, warrants, and covenants to BMW Auto Leasing LLC, as transferee (the “Transferee”), as follows on the Closing Date: 

1.

The SUBI Certificate Transfer Agreement creates a valid and continuing security interest (as defined in the applicable UCC) in the 2007-1 SUBI Certificate in favor of the Transferee, which security interest is prior to all other Liens and is enforceable as such as against creditors of and purchasers from the Transferor. 

2. The 2007-1 SUBI Certificate constitutes a “general intangible,” “instrument,” “certificated security,” or “tangible chattel paper,” within the meaning of the applicable UCC. 

3. The Transferor owns and has good and marketable title to the 2007-1 SUBI Certificate free and clear of any Liens, claim or encumbrance of any Person, excepting only liens for taxes, assessments or similar governmental charges or levies incurred in the ordinary course of business that are not yet due and payable or as to which any applicable grace period shall not have expired, or that are being contested in good faith by proper proceedings and for which adequate reserves have been established, but only so long as foreclosure with respect to such a lien is not imminent and the use and value of the property to which the Lien attaches is not impaired during the pendency of such proceeding.

4. The Transferor has received all consents and approvals to the sale of the 2007-1 SUBI Certificate under the SUBI Certificate Transfer Agreement to the Transferee required by the terms of the 2007-1 SUBI Certificate to the extent that it constitutes an instrument or a payment intangible. 

5. The Transferor has received all consents and approvals required by the terms of the 2007-1 SUBI Certificate, to the extent that it constitutes a securities entitlement, certificated security or uncertificated security, to the transfer to the Transferee of its interest and rights in the 2007-1 SUBI Certificate under the SUBI Certificate Transfer Agreement. 

6. The Transferor has caused or will have caused, within ten days after the effective date of the SUBI Certificate Transfer Agreement, the filing of all appropriate financing statements in the proper filing office in the appropriate jurisdictions under applicable law in order to perfect the sale of the 2007-1 SUBI Certificate from the Transferor to the Transferee and the security interest in the 2007-1 SUBI Certificate granted under the SUBI Certificate Transfer Agreement. 

7. To the extent that the 2007-1 SUBI Certificate constitutes an instrument or tangible chattel paper, all original executed copies of each such instrument or tangible chattel paper have been delivered to the Transferee. 

8. Other than the transfer of the 2007-1 SUBI Certificate from the Transferor to the Transferee under the SUBI Certificate Transfer Agreement and from the Transferee to the Issuer under the Issuer SUBI Certificate Transfer Agreement and the security interest granted to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to the Indenture, the Transferor has not pledged, assigned, sold, granted a security interest in, or otherwise conveyed the 2007-1 SUBI Certificate. The Transferor has not authorized the filing of, nor is aware of, any financing statements against the Transferor that include a description of collateral covering the 2007-1 SUBI Certificate other than any financing statement relating to any security interest granted pursuant to the Basic Documents or that has been terminated.

9. No instrument or tangible chattel paper that constitutes or evidences the 2007-1 SUBI Certificate has any marks or notations indicating that it has been pledged, assigned or otherwise conveyed to any Person other than the Indenture Trustee.
