Item 1119 of Regulation AB. Affiliations and Certain Relationships and Related Transactions.   

Harley-Davidson Credit Corp. (“HDCC” or “Company”), the seller, servicer and sponsor, is a Nevada corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of Harley-Davidson Financial Services, Inc. (“HDFS”). HDFS, a Delaware corporation, is a wholly-owned subsidiary and the financing division of Harley-Davidson, Inc. HDCC and its affiliates provide retail financial services to consumers primarily in the United States and Canada and wholesale financial services primarily to Harley-Davidson® motorcycle dealers in the United States and Canada. Harley-Davidson Customer Funding Corp. (“CFC”), the depositor, is a Nevada corporation and wholly-owned special-purpose finance subsidiary of HDCC.  All of the officers and directors of CFC are also employed by HDCC or HDFS, except that at least two directors of CFC will at all times be independent of HDCC, HDFS and Harley-Davidson, Inc.  CFC’s business is limited to, among other things, (i) purchasing the contracts and related property (and other similar promissory note and security agreements) from HDCC (in its capacity as seller), (ii) acting as the beneficial owner of the issuing entity – Harley-Davidson Motorcycle Trust 2019-A (the “Trust”) – and other similar trusts and (iii) performing its obligations under the transfer and servicing agreements to which it is a party (including similar agreements entered into in connection with the formation of similar trusts).
Annual losses on the retail motorcycle loans serviced by HDCC were 1.19% during 2021 compared to 1.38% in 2020. The favorable retail credit loss performance was due to elevated used motorcycle values at auction in the U.S. and continued lower than normal delinquency levels driven by benefits provided to individuals under the U.S. federal stimulus packages and COVID-19 pandemic retail payment extensions. Favorable used motorcycle values stemmed from an ongoing low number of motorcycles at auction. The 30-day delinquency rate for retail motorcycle loans serviced by HDCC at December 31, 2021 increased to 3.33% from 3.18% at December 31, 2020. Although the 30-day delinquency rate was elevated as compared to 2020, the 2021 delinquency rate remained below levels experienced prior to the COVID-19 pandemic. These continued low delinquency levels were driven by benefits to individuals provided under U.S. federal stimulus packages as well as the effects of COVID-19 pandemic-related retail payment extensions. Starting in the second quarter of 2020, HDCC granted COVID-19 pandemic-related extensions to help customers get through financial difficulties associated with the pandemic. During 2021, the volume of extensions declined from the levels experienced during 2020 as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, but extensions did not return to pre-COVID-19 pandemic levels until the end of the second quarter of 2021. Extensions specific to the COVID-19 pandemic were discontinued by HDCC at the beginning of the third quarter of 2021. HDCC continues to grant payment extensions to its customers consistent with its standard policies and practices. HDCC expects the delinquency rate to normalize over time as it moves further away from the influx of stimulus funding. HDCC believes its retail credit losses may continue to increase over time due to changing consumer credit behavior and new financing programs that may result in different loan performance than existing programs, as well as actions that Harley-Davidson has taken and could take that impact motorcycle values. Increases in the frequency of loss and decreases in the value of repossessed Harley-Davidson branded motorcycles also adversely impact credit losses. If there are adverse circumstances that involve a material decline in values of Harley-Davidson branded motorcycles, those circumstances or any related decline in resale values for Harley-Davidson branded motorcycles could contribute to increased delinquencies and credit losses. The assets owned by the Trust may experience credit losses at rates that are the same as, greater than or less than those of the retail motorcycle loans that HDCC or its affiliates originated and HDCC services taken as a whole.








Item 1122 of Regulation AB. Compliance with Applicable Servicing Criteria.

Each of HDCC and the Indenture Trustee (each, a “Servicing Participant”) has been identified by the Trust as a party participating in the servicing function during the reporting period with respect to the pool assets held by the Trust.

In addition, each Servicing Participant has provided an attestation report (each, an “Attestation Report”) by a registered independent public accounting firm regarding its related Report on Assessment. Each Attestation Report is attached as an exhibit to this Form 10-K.

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, 2021 (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, 2021, 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.


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.

Exhibit 34.1


Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm



Harley-Davidson Credit Corp.

We have examined management's assertion, included in the accompanying Report on Assessment of Compliance with SEC Regulation AB Servicing Criteria, that Harley-Davidson Credit Corp. (the Company) complied with the servicing criteria set forth in Item 1122 (d) of the Securities and Exchange Commission's Regulation AB for the public asset-backed securities transactions for which the Company acted as servicer, involving motorcycle loans, issued on or after January 1, 2006 (the "Platform") as of and for the year ended December 31, 2021, except for servicing criteria 1122 (d)(1)(iii), 1122 (d)(1)(iv), 1122 (d)(2)(iv), 1122 (d)(2)(v), 1122 (d)(2)(vi), 1122 (d)(3)(iii), 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 A 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 Corporate 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.

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)(viii), 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)(viii), for which compliance is determined based on C&DI 200.06 as described above, as of and for the year ended December 31, 2021 for the Platform, is fairly stated, in all material respects.

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 management’s assertion, included in the accompanying Management’s Assessment of Compliance with Applicable Servicing Criteria, that 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”) complied with the servicing criteria set forth in Item 1122(d) of the Securities and Exchange Commission’s Regulation AB 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), 1122(d)(4)(xiv) and 1122(d)(4)(xv), 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, 2021. 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, 2021, 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. With respect to applicable servicing criterion 1122(d)(4)(iii), the Company has determined that there were no activities performed during the twelve months ended December 31, 2021 with respect to the Platform, because there were no occurrences of events that would require the Company to perform such activities. Appendix A to Management’s Assessment of Compliance with Applicable Servicing Criteria identifies the individual asset‑backed transactions and securities defined by management as constituting the Platform. Management is responsible for the Company’s compliance with the 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 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 opinion. Our examination does not provide a legal determination on the Company’s compliance with the Servicing Criteria.

As described in Management’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.

In our opinion, management’s assertion that the Company complied 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, 2021 is fairly stated, in all material respects.
