ITEM 1112(b) OF REGULATION AB. SIGNIFICANT OBLIGORS OF POOL ASSETS (FINANCIAL INFORMATION)
There is no single obligor that represents more than 10% of the pool assets.
ITEM 1114(b)(2) OF REGULATION AB. CREDIT ENHANCEMENT AND OTHER SUPPORT, EXCEPT FOR CERTAIN DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS (FINANCIAL INFORMATION)
There is no external credit enhancement or other support provider that is liable to provide payments supporting any notes or certificates issued by the Issuing Entity.
ITEM 1115(b) OF REGULATION AB. CERTAIN DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS (FINANCIAL INFORMATION)
No entity provides any derivative instruments that are used to alter the payment characteristics of the cash flows from the Issuing Entity.
ITEM 1117 OF REGULATION AB. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
The Sponsor and the Servicer
The sponsor is subject to various pending and potential legal and regulatory proceedings in the ordinary course of business, including litigation, arbitration, claims, investigations, examinations, subpoenas and enforcement proceedings. Some litigation against the sponsor could take the form of class actions. The outcomes of these proceedings are inherently uncertain, and thus the sponsor cannot confidently predict how or when these proceedings will be resolved. An adverse outcome in one or more of these proceedings could result in substantial damages, settlements, fines, penalties, diminished income or reputational harm to the sponsor, and could materially and adversely affect the interest of the noteholders or the servicer’s ability to perform its duties under the transaction documents.
The Trustee and the Trust Collateral Agent
In the ordinary course of business, The Bank of New York Mellon is named as a defendant in legal actions. In connection with its role as trustee of certain residential mortgage-backed securitization, or RMBS, transactions, The Bank of New York Mellon has been named as a defendant in a number of legal actions brought by RMBS investors. These lawsuits allege that the trustee had expansive duties under the governing agreements, including the duty to investigate and pursue breach of representation and warranty claims against other parties to the RMBS transactions. While it is inherently difficult to predict the eventual outcomes of pending actions, The Bank of New York Mellon denies liability and intends to defend the litigations vigorously.
ITEM 1119 OF REGULATION AB. AFFILIATIONS AND CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS
Information required by Item 1119 of Regulation AB has been omitted from this report on Form 10-K in reliance on the Instruction to Item 1119.
ITEM 1122 OF REGULATION AB. COMPLIANCE WITH APPLICABLE SERVICING CRITERIA.
The following documents are filed as part of this report.
The Servicer has complied, in all material respects, with the Applicable Servicing Criteria.
The Assessment of Compliance with Applicable Servicing Criteria provided by The Bank of New York Mellon that is included in this report as Exhibit 33.2 includes references to certain Material Instances of Noncompliance by The Bank of New York Mellon. After reviewing information provided by The Bank of New York Mellon, we have ascertained that those instances of noncompliance do not relate to the transactions entered into by the issuing entity, do not relate to the same class of assets as those backing the asset-backed securities described in this report, and do not relate to activities performed by The Bank of New York Mellon pursuant to the transactions relating to the asset-backed securities described in this report.

2. | AFSI has engaged vendors, which are not servicers as defined in Item 1101(j) of Regulation AB, to perform specific, limited or scripted activities (the “Vendors”), and AFSI elects to take responsibility for assessing compliance with the servicing criteria or portion of the servicing criteria applicable to each such Vendor’s activities as set forth in Appendix A hereto. AFSI has policies and procedures in place to provide reasonable assurance that each such Vendor’s activities comply in all material respects with the servicing criteria or portion of the servicing criteria applicable to each such Vendor. |
3. | Except as set forth in paragraph 4 below, AFSI used the criteria set forth in paragraph (d) of Item 1122 of Regulation AB to access compliance with the applicable servicing criteria. |
4. | The criteria listed in the column titled “Inapplicable Servicing Criteria” in Appendix A hereto are inapplicable to AFSI based on the activities it performs, directly or through its Vendors, with respect to the Platform. |
5. | AFSI has complied, in all material respects, with the criteria listed as applicable in the first two columns of Appendix A hereto (the “Applicable Servicing Criteria”) as of December 31, 2020 and for the Reporting Period with respect to the Platform taken as a whole. |
6. | AFSI has not identified and is not aware of any material instance of noncompliance by the Vendors with regard to the Applicable Servicing Criteria, as of December 31, 2020, and for the Reporting Period with respect to the Platform taken as a whole. |
7. | AFSI has not identified any material deficiencies in our policies and procedures to monitor the compliance by the Vendors with the Applicable Servicing Criteria, as of December 31, 2020, and for the Reporting Period with respect to the Platform taken as a whole. |

ASSESSMENT OF COMPLIANCE WITH
APPLICABLE SERVICING CRITERIA
Management of The Bank of New York Mellon (formerly The Bank of New York), BNY Mellon Trust of Delaware (formerly BNYM (Delaware)) and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A. (formerly The Bank of New York Trust Company, N.A.), (collectively, the “Company”) is responsible for assessing the Company’s compliance with the servicing criteria set forth in Item 1122(d) of Regulation AB promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company’s management has determined that the servicing criteria are applicable in regard to the servicing platform as of and for the period as follows:
Platform: Publicly-issued (i.e., transaction-level reporting initially required under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) asset-backed securities issued on or after January 1, 2006 and like-kind transactions issued prior to January 1, 2006 that are subject to Regulation AB (including transactions subject to Regulation AB by contractual obligation) for which the Company provides trustee, securities administration, paying agent or custodial services, as defined and to the extent applicable in the transaction agreements, other than residential mortgage-backed securities and other mortgage-related asset-backed securities (the “Platform”).
Period: The twelve months ended December 31, 2020 (the “Period”).
Applicable Servicing Criteria: All servicing criteria set forth in Item 1122(d), to the extent required by the related transaction agreements as to any transaction, except as set forth in the column titled “Not Applicable to Platform” in Appendix 1 attached hereto.
With respect to servicing criterion 1122(d)(2)(vi), the Company’s management has engaged a vendor to perform the activities required by the servicing criterion. The Company’s management has determined that this vendor is not considered a “servicer” as defined in Item 1101(j) of Regulation AB, and the Company’s management has elected to take responsibility for assessing compliance with the servicing criterion applicable to this vendor as permitted by the SEC’s Compliance and Disclosure Interpretation 200.06, Vendors Engaged by Servicers (“C&DI 200.06”). The Company’s management has policies and procedures in place designed to provide reasonable assurance that the vendor’s activities comply in all material respects with the servicing criterion applicable to the vendor. The Company’s management is solely responsible for determining that it meets the SEC requirements to apply C&DI 200.06 for the vendor and related servicing criterion.
With respect to the Platform as of and for the Period, the Company provides the following assessment of compliance in respect of the Applicable Servicing Criteria:
1. The Company’s management is responsible for assessing the Company’s compliance with the Applicable Servicing Criteria.
2. The Company’s management has assessed compliance with the Applicable Servicing Criteria, including the servicing criterion for which compliance is determined based on C&DI 200.06 as described above as of and for the Period. In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Securities and Exchange Commission in paragraph (d) of Item 1122 of Regulation AB.
3. With respect to servicing criterion 1122(d)(4)(i), for certain transactions in the Platform the Trustor (as such term is defined in the related transaction agreements) may direct the Trustee (as such term is defined in the related transaction agreements) to file, or cause to be filed, all filings identified by the Trustor to be necessary to maintain the effectiveness of any original filings identified by the Trustor to be necessary under the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in any jurisdiction to perfect the Trustee’s security interest in or lien on the Underlying Securities (as such term is defined in the related transaction agreements). As of and for the twelve months ended December 31, 2020, the Company was not instructed by any Trustors to perform such activities. Absent the receipt of instruction from a Trustor to perform such activities, the Company’s responsibility for criterion 1122(d)(4)(i) for the Platform is solely with regard to the manner of holding trust assets and investment of trust assets in eligible investments and the Company does not have any duties as to the original UCC filing and any continuations to perfect the security interest unless instructed to do so by other parties in the transaction agreement.
4. Based on such assessment, as of and for the Period, the Company has complied, in all material respects, with the Applicable Servicing Criteria other than as identified on Schedule A attached.
5. Schedule B attached includes Management’s Discussion of Material Instances of Noncompliance by the Company noted in Schedule A, including remediation efforts taken by the Company.
KPMG LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, has issued an attestation report with respect to the Company’s compliance with the Applicable Servicing Criteria as of and for the Period.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
Board of Directors of AmeriCredit Financial Services, Inc.
AmeriCredit Financial Services, Inc.
We have examined management’s assertion, included in the accompanying Management’s Assertion Regarding Compliance with Applicable Servicing Criteria, that AmeriCredit Financial Services, Inc. (the Company) complied with the servicing criteria set forth in Item 1122(d) of the Securities and Exchange Commission’s Regulation AB for the publicly issued consumer auto loan and lease asset-backed securities transactions for which the Company acted as servicer involving consumer auto loans and leases (the “Platform”) as of and for the year ended December 31, 2020, except for 1122(d)(1)(iii), 1122(d)(1)(iv), 1122(d)(2)(iii), 1122(d)(2)(vi), 1122(d)(4)(ix), 1122(d)(4)(x), 1122(d)(4)(xi), 1122(d)(4)(xii), 1122(d)(4)(xiii), and 1122(d)(4)(xv) which the Company has determined are not applicable to the activities performed by them with respect to the servicing platform covered by this report. See Appendix B of management’s assertion for the asset backed transactions covered by this platform. Management is responsible for the Company’s compliance with those servicing criteria. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on management’s assertion about the Company’s compliance with the servicing criteria based on our examination.
Our examination was conducted in accordance with attestation standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants and the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) and, accordingly, included examining, on a test basis, evidence about the Company’s compliance with the applicable servicing criteria and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. Our examination included testing of less than all of the individual asset backed transactions and securities that comprise the platform, testing of less than all of the servicing activities related to the Platform and determining whether the Company processed those selected transactions and performed those selected activities in compliance with the servicing criteria and as permitted by Regulation AB Compliance and Disclosure Interpretations of the Division of Corporation Finance, Section 200.06, “Vendors Engaged by Servicers” (C&DI 200.06). Furthermore, our procedures were limited to the selected transactions and servicing activities performed by the Company during the period covered by this report. Our procedures were not designed to determine whether errors may have occurred either prior to or subsequent to our tests that may have affected the balances or amounts calculated or reported by the Company during the period covered by this report for the selected transactions or any other transactions. We believe that the evidence we obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Our examination does not provide a legal determination on the Company’s compliance with the servicing criteria.
1
As described in management’s assertion, for servicing criteria 1122(d)(2)(i), 1122(d)(4)(i), 1122(d)(4)(ii) and 1122(d)(4)(iv), the Company has engaged various vendors to perform the activities required by these servicing criteria. The Company has determined that these vendors are not considered a “servicer” as defined in Item 1101(j) of Regulation AB, and the Company has elected to take responsibility for assessing compliance with the applicable servicing criteria applicable to each vendor as permitted by C&DI 200.06. As permitted by C&DI 200.06, the Company has asserted that it has policies and procedures in place designed to provide reasonable assurance that the vendors’ activities comply in all material respects with servicing criteria applicable to each vendor. The Company is solely responsible for determining that it meets the SEC requirements to apply C&DI 200.06 for the vendors and related criteria as described in its assertion, and we performed no procedures with respect to the Company’s eligibility to apply C&DI 200.06.
In our opinion, management’s assertion that the Company complied with the servicing criteria set forth in Item 1122(d) of the Securities and Exchange Commission’s Regulation AB, including servicing criteria 1122(d)(2)(i), 1122(d)(4)(i), 1122(d)(4)(ii) and 1122(d)(4)(iv) for which compliance is determined based on C&DI 200.06 as described above, as of and for the year ended December 31, 2020 for the Platform, is fairly stated, in all material respects.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
The Board of Directors
The Bank of New York Mellon
BNY Mellon Trust of Delaware
The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A.:
We have examined The Bank of New York Mellon’s (formerly The Bank of New York), BNY Mellon Trust of Delaware’s (formerly BNYM (Delaware)) and The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A.’s (formerly The Bank of New York Trust Company, N.A.), (collectively, the Company) compliance with the servicing criteria set forth in Item 1122(d) of the Securities and Exchange Commission’s Regulation AB (Servicing Criteria) for the publicly issued (i.e., transaction-level reporting initially required under the Securities and Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) asset-backed securities issued on or after January 1, 2006 and like-kind transactions issued prior to January 1, 2006 that are subject to Regulation AB (including transactions subject to Regulation AB by contractual obligation) for which the Company provides trustee, securities administration, paying agent or custodial services, as defined and to the extent applicable in the transaction agreements, other than residential mortgage-backed securities and other mortgage-related asset-backed securities (the Platform), except for servicing criteria 1122(d)(1)(iii), 1122(d)(1)(iv), 1122(d)(1)(v), 1122(d)(2)(iii), 1122(d)(4)(iv), 1122(d)(4)(v), 1122(d)(4)(vi), 1122(d)(4)(vii), 1122(d)(4)(viii), 1122(d)(4)(ix), 1122(d)(4)(x), 1122(d)(4)(xi), 1122(d)(4)(xii), 1122(d)(4)(xiii) and 1122(d)(4)(xiv), which the Company has determined are not applicable to the activities it performs with respect to the Platform (the Servicing Criteria), as of and for the twelve months ended December 31, 2020. With respect to Servicing Criterion 1122(d)(4)(i), the Company has determined that for certain transactions in the Platform the Trustor (as such term is defined in the related transaction agreements) may direct the Trustee (as such term is defined in the related transaction agreements) to file, or cause to be filed, all filings identified by the Trustor to be necessary to maintain the effectiveness of any original filings identified by the Trustor to be necessary under the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in any jurisdiction to perfect the Trustee’s security interest in or lien on the Underlying Securities (as such term is defined in the related transaction agreements). As of and for the twelve months ended December 31, 2020, the Company was not instructed by any Trustors to perform such activities. Absent the receipt of instruction from a Trustor to perform such activities, the Company’s responsibility for Servicing Criterion 1122(d)(4)(i) for the Platform is solely with regard to the manner of holding trust assets and investment of trust assets in eligible investments and the Company does not have any duties as to the original UCC filing and any continuations to perfect the security interest unless instructed to do so by other parties in the transaction agreement. Management is responsible for the Company’s compliance with the Servicing Criteria. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s compliance with the Servicing Criteria based on our examination.
Our examination was conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) and in accordance with attestation standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants to obtain reasonable assurance and, accordingly, included examining, on a test basis, evidence about the Company’s compliance with the Servicing Criteria and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. Our examination included testing selected asset-backed transactions and securities that comprise the Platform, testing selected servicing activities related to the Platform, and determining whether the Company processed those selected transactions and performed those selected activities in compliance with the Servicing Criteria. Furthermore, our procedures were limited to the selected transactions and servicing activities performed by the Company during the period covered by this report. Our procedures were not designed to determine whether errors may have occurred either prior to or subsequent to our tests that may have affected the balances or amounts calculated or reported by the Company during the period covered by this report for the selected transactions or any other transactions. We believe that our examination provides a reasonable basis for our qualified opinion. Our examination does not provide a legal determination on the Company’s compliance with the Servicing Criteria.
As described in the Company’s Assessment of Compliance with Applicable Servicing Criteria, for Servicing Criterion 1122(d)(2)(vi), the Company has engaged a vendor to perform the activities required by this Servicing Criterion. The Company has determined that this vendor is not considered a “servicer” as defined in Item 1101(j) of Regulation AB, and the Company has elected to take responsibility for assessing compliance with the Servicing Criterion applicable to this vendor as permitted by the SEC’s Compliance and Disclosure Interpretation (C&DI) 200.06, Vendors Engaged by Servicers (C&DI 200.06). As permitted by C&DI 200.06, the Company has asserted that it has policies and procedures in place designed to provide reasonable assurance that the vendor’s activities comply in all material respects with the Servicing Criterion applicable to the vendor. The Company is solely responsible for determining that it meets the SEC requirements to apply C&DI 200.06 for the vendor and related Servicing Criterion as described in its assertion, and we performed no procedures with respect to the Company’s eligibility to apply C&DI 200.06.
Our examination disclosed the following material noncompliance with Servicing Criterion 1122(d)(2)(vii)(A),(B),(C),(D) as applicable to the Company as of and for the twelve months ended December 31, 2020. Certain reconciliations were not prepared on a monthly basis for all asset-backed securities related bank accounts, including custodial accounts.
In our opinion, except for the material noncompliance described above, the Company complied, in all material respects, with the aforementioned Servicing Criteria, including Servicing Criterion 1122(d)(2)(vi) for which compliance is determined based on C&DI 200.06 as described above as of and for the twelve months ended December 31, 2020.
We do not express an opinion or any form of assurance on the statements in Management’s Discussion of Material Instances of Noncompliance by the Company as set forth in Schedule B to the Company’s Assessment of Compliance with Applicable Servicing Criteria.
