(a) Pursuant to Section 3.01(a) of the Titling Trust Agreement, the UTI Beneficiary directs the Trustee to create, and the Trustee hereby creates, one Sub-Trust which shall be known as the 2007-A SUBI. The 2007-A SUBI shall represent a special unit of beneficial interest solely in the 2007-A SUBI Assets.

Such Trust Assets (the 2007-A 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 2007-A Servicing Supplement, the Trustee hereby identifies and allocates as 2007-A SUBI Assets the 2007-A Leases and 2007-A Vehicles more particularly described on the Schedule of 2007-A Leases and 2007-A Vehicles and the related Trust Assets described above, each such 2007-A SUBI Asset to be identified on the books and accounts of the Titling Trust as being allocated to the 2007-A SUBI.

(a) Interests in the 2007-A SUBI may not be transferred or assigned by the UTI Beneficiary, and any such purported transfer or assignment shall be deemed null, void, and of no effect herewith; provided, however, that the 2007-A SUBI Certificate and the interests in the
SUBI Supplement

2007-A 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Registered Pledgee to itself or any other Person following the occurrence of an Event of Default (which has not been rescinded) or any similar term in any subsequent Securitized Financing secured by the 2007-A SUBI Certificate or any interest therein and (iv) transferred to each direct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 2007-A SUBI Certificate to be transferred for registration of the transfer at the corporate trust office of the Trustee (or the Trust Agent, if applicable), accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Trustee duly executed by the Holder thereof or such Holders attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon a new 2007-A SUBI Certificate of a like aggregate fractional undivided interest will be issued to the designated permitted transferee.
(b) For any transfer of the 2007-A 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 Trustee the non-petition covenant and the agreement required pursuant to Section 3.04(b) of the Titling Trust Agreement.

Section 2510.3-101, as modified by Section 3(42) of ERISA) of any of the foregoing. The 2007-A SUBI Certificate (or any interest therein) may not be acquired by or on behalf of a governmental plan, foreign plan or any other plan that is subject to any applicable law that is substantially similar to Title I of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code (Similar Law) if the acquisition, holding and disposition of the 2007-A SUBI Certificate (or any interest therein) would result in a nonexempt prohibited transaction under, or a violation of, Similar Law.
(d) Notwithstanding any other provision herein, no transfer or assignment of an interest in the 2007-A SUBI 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 Trustee that, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the transferee is not a partnership, S Corporation, 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 2007-A SUBI Certificate.

Every 2007-A SUBI Certificate issued pursuant to this Section 12.03(b) in replacement of any mutilated, destroyed, lost, or stolen 2007-A SUBI Certificate shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Issuing Entity, whether or not the mutilated, destroyed, lost, or stolen 2007-A SUBI Certificate shall be at any time enforceable by anyone and shall be entitled to all of the benefits of the SUBI Trust Agreement equally and proportionately with any and all other 2007-A SUBI Certificates duly issued hereunder. The provisions of this Section 12.03(b) are exclusive and preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost, or stolen 2007-A SUBI Certificates.

Such termination shall not entitle the legal representatives of the 2007-A SUBI or any Holder of a 2007-A SUBI Certificate to take any action for a partition or winding up of the Titling Trust or any Trust Assets except with respect to the 2007-A SUBI Assets and the rights, obligations and Liabilities of the parties hereto shall not otherwise be affected. In connection with the sale of the Owner Trust Estate pursuant to Section 5.04 of the Indenture, the Registered Pledgee shall have the right to direct the Holder of the 2007-A SUBI Certificate to dissolve the 2007-A SUBI in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture, and the 2007-A SUBI Assets shall be distributed out of the Titling Trust at the direction of the Holder of the 2007-A SUBI Certificate acting in accordance with instructions from the Registered Pledgee and the purchaser shall take delivery of such 2007-A SUBI Assets. The Trustee and the other parties hereto shall cooperate with the Owner Trustee or the Trustee, as applicable, to cause the related 2007-A Vehicles to be retitled as directed by the purchaser. The proceeds of such sale shall be distributed in the following amounts and priority:

Section 12.06 Representations and Warranties of Trustee. The Trustee hereby reaffirms, as of the Cutoff Date, the representations, warranties and covenants set forth in Section 5.12 of the Titling Trust Agreement, on which the Grantor and UTI Beneficiary, each of its permitted assignees, and each Holder or Related Beneficiary of a 2007-A SUBI Certificate (and beneficial owner of any portion thereof, including the Issuing Entity and the Trust Certificateholders) may rely. For purposes of this Section, any reference in Section 5.12 of the Titling Trust Agreement to the Titling Trust Agreement shall be deemed to constitute references to the SUBI Trust Agreement.

By acceptance of this 2007-A SUBI Certificate, the Holder hereof assents to the terms and conditions of the SUBI Trust Agreement and agrees to be bound thereby.

SUBI Supplement

This certificate was issued pursuant to the 2007-A SUBI Supplement and represents a 100% beneficial interest in the 2007-A SUBI Assets.

The Holder hereof hereby (i) expressly waives any claim it may have to any proceeds or assets of the Trustee and to all of the Trust Assets other than those from time to time included within the 2007-A SUBI as 2007-A SUBI Assets and those proceeds or assets derived from or earned by such 2007-A 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 Trustee shall keep the certificate register with respect to this 2007-A SUBI Certificate, and the Holder of this 2007-A SUBI Certificate shall notify the Trustee of any change of address or instructions on the distribution of funds.
The 2007-A SUBI shall be deemed dissolved solely with respect to the 2007-A SUBI Assets, and not as to any Trust Assets allocated to any other Sub-Trust, upon the written direction to the Trustee by the Holder of the 2007-A SUBI Certificate to revoke and dissolve the 2007-A SUBI. So long as the Notes are outstanding, the 2007-A SUBI shall not be dissolved except (a) as required by law or (b) at the direction of the Holder of the 2007-A SUBI Certificate (but only with the consent of the Registered Pledgee); provided, however, upon any sale of the Owner Trust Estate pursuant to Section 5.04 of the Indenture, the Registered Pledgee shall have the right to direct the Holder of the 2007-A SUBI Certificate to dissolve the 2007-A SUBI in accordance with the provisions of the Indenture.

cancellation, the Trustee shall distribute to the Holder of the 2007-A SUBI Certificate or its designee all 2007-A SUBI Assets and shall cause the Certificates of Title to the 2007-A Vehicles to be issued in the name of, or at the direction of, the Holder of the 2007-A SUBI Certificate (which may include reallocation of the 2007-A SUBI Assets relating to the 2007-A Vehicles to the UTI). The Holder of the 2007-A SUBI Certificate to whom such 2007-A SUBI Assets relating to the 2007-A Vehicles are distributed shall pay or cause to be paid all applicable titling and registration fees and taxes.
The Titling 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, 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 2007-A 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 2007-A SUBI Certificate shall have been executed by an authorized officer of the Trustee, by manual signature, this 2007-A SUBI Certificate shall not entitle the holder hereof to any benefit under the SUBI Trust Agreement or be valid for any purpose.
