(a) Pursuant to Section 3.01(a) of the Titling Trust Agreement, the UTI Beneficiary directs the Titling Trustee to create, and the Titling Trustee hereby creates, one Sub-Trust which shall be known as the 2020-B SUBI.

Such Trust Assets (the 2020-B SUBI Assets) shall be accounted for and held in trust independently from all other Trust Assets within the Titling Trust. Based upon their identification and allocation by the Servicer pursuant to the 2020-B Servicing Supplement, the Titling Trustee hereby identifies and allocates as 2020-B SUBI Assets the 2020-B Leases and 2020-B Vehicles more particularly described on the Schedule of 2020-B Leases and 2020-B Vehicles and the related Trust Assets described above, each such 2020-B SUBI Asset to be identified on the books and accounts of the Titling Trust as being allocated to the 2020-B SUBI.

3 | (NALT 2020-B SUBI Supplement) |
2020-B SUBI represented thereby may be (i) sold to the Depositor pursuant to the SUBI Certificate Transfer Agreement, (ii) sold, transferred and assigned by the Depositor absolutely, or transferred and assigned or a security interest therein granted, in connection with a Securitized Financing, (iii) transferred to the Indenture Trustee or any subsequent Registered Pledgee to itself or any other Person following the occurrence of an Event of Default (which has not been revoked) or any similar term in any subsequent Securitized Financing secured by the 2020-B SUBI Certificate or any interest therein and (iv) transferred to each direct or indirect permitted transferee of the Indenture Trustee or such subsequent Registered Pledgee, in each case in the circumstances contemplated in, and subject to the conditions set forth in, Section 3.04(b) of the Titling Trust Agreement. Each such transfer shall be registrable upon surrender of the 2020-B SUBI Certificate to be transferred for registration of the transfer at the corporate trust office of the Titling Trustee (or the Trust Agent, if applicable), accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Titling Trustee duly executed by the Holder thereof or such Holders attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon a new 2020-B SUBI Certificate of a like aggregate fractional undivided interest will be issued to the designated permitted transferee.
(b) For any transfer of the 2020-B SUBI Certificate or an interest therein to be effective, on or prior to the date of any absolute sale, transfer, or assignment, the related transferee must execute and deliver to the Titling Trustee the non-petition covenant and the agreement required pursuant to Section 3.04(b) of the Titling Trust Agreement.

(d) Notwithstanding any other provision herein, no transfer or assignment of an interest in the 2020-B SUBI (other than transfer or assignments to the NILT Trust, the Depositor, or the Issuing Entity) will be valid, and any such purported transfer or assignment shall be deemed null, void, and of no effect herewith, unless the purported transferee first shall have certified in writing to the Titling Trustee that, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the transferee is not a partnership, S Corporation (as defined in the Code), or grantor trust having more than one beneficial owner or having a single beneficial owner that is a partnership or S Corporation.
Section 12.03 Issuance and Form of 2020-B SUBI Certificate.

5 | (NALT 2020-B SUBI Supplement) |
SIMILAR LAW AND WILL NOT RESULT IN THE ASSETS OF THE TITLING TRUST BEING (I) CONSIDERED PLAN ASSETS OF SUCH PLAN OR (II) A SUBJECT TOF SIMILAR LAW.

By acceptance of this 2020-B 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.
A-2 | (NALT 2020-B SUBI Supplement) |

Upon the issuance of the SUBI Certificates relating to the SUBI Assets, the beneficial interest in the Titling 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 was issued pursuant to the 2020-B SUBI Supplement and represents a 100% beneficial interest in the 2020-B SUBI Assets.
The UTI and the 2020-B SUBI shall each constitute a separate series of the Titling Trust pursuant to Section 3806(b)(2) of the Delaware Statutory Trust Act for which separate and distinct records shall be maintained.
The 2020-B SUBI Supplement may be amended by the parties thereto upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the 2020-B SUBI Supplement.

Such covenant shall survive the termination of the SUBI Trust Agreement, the resignation or removal of the Titling Trustee under the SUBI Trust Agreement or the complete or partial resignation of the Servicer under the SUBI Trust Agreement or the Servicing Agreement.
The Holder hereof hereby (i) expressly waives any claim it may have to any proceeds or assets of the Titling Trustee and to all of the Trust Assets other than those from time to time included within the 2020-B SUBI as 2020-B SUBI Assets and those proceeds or assets derived from or earned by such 2020-B SUBI Assets and (ii) expressly subordinates in favor of the Holder of any certificate evidencing an Other SUBI 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 Titling Trustee shall keep the certificate register with respect to this 2020-B SUBI Certificate, and the Holder of this 2020-B SUBI Certificate shall notify the Titling Trustee of any change of address or instructions on the distribution of funds.

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, any 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 2020-B SUBI Certificate shall be governed by and construed under the internal laws of the State of Delaware, without reference to its conflicts of law provisions.
Unless this 2020-B SUBI Certificate shall have been executed by an authorized officer of the Titling Trustee, by manual signature, this 2020-B SUBI Certificate shall not entitle the holder hereof to any benefit under the SUBI Trust Agreement or be valid for any purpose.
