(c)
The Servicer shall calculate a Securitization Value for each 2007-1 Lease.

The Servicer also hereby represents and warrants that aside from the selection criteria included in such representations and warranties it used no adverse selection procedures in selecting any of the 2007-1 Leases for inclusion in the 2007-1 SUBI and that aside from such criteria it is not aware of any bias in the selection of the 2007-1 Leases which would cause delinquencies or losses on the 2007-1 Leases to be worse than any other Leases held by the Vehicle Trust; provided, however, that the Servicer can make no assurance as to the actual delinquencies or losses on the 2007-1 Leases.
Upon discovery by the Vehicle Trustee, the Servicer or the Indenture Trustee that any such representation or warranty was incorrect as of the date hereof and materially and adversely affects the interests of the Trust in the related 2007-1 Lease or 2007-1 Vehicle, the party discovering such incorrectness (if other than the Servicer) shall give prompt written notice to the Servicer. Within 60 days after the Servicer’s discovery of such incorrectness or receipt of the foregoing notice, the Servicer shall cure in all material respects the circumstance or condition as to which the representation or warranty was incorrect as of the date hereof. If the Servicer is unable or unwilling to do so within such period, it shall promptly (i) deposit or cause to be deposited into the SUBI Collection Account an amount equal to the Reallocation Payment and (ii) direct the Vehicle Trustee to cause such 2007-1 Vehicle and the related 2007-1 Lease to be conveyed to the Servicer as described in Section 2.3(h) below. Such deposit of the Reallocation Payment shall satisfy the Servicer’s obligations pursuant to this Section, shall be deemed to constitute payment in full of the Reallocation Payment with respect thereto and shall cure any incorrectness of the related representation or warranty for purposes of this Agreement. The Vehicle Trustee shall have no duty to conduct any affirmative investigation as to the occurrence of any condition requiring the repurchase of any 2007-1 Vehicle or 2007-1 Lease pursuant to this Section 2.3(a) or the eligibility of any 2007-1 Vehicle or related 2007-1 Lease for purposes of the Agreement.
(b)

(c)
The Servicer shall be required to repurchase a 2007-1 Vehicle and the related 2007-1 Lease and remit to the related 2007-1 SUBI Collection Account a Reallocation Payment for such 2007-1 Vehicle and 2007-1 Lease if the related Lessee moves to a state that is not a Trust State and such state does not become a Trust State within 90 days after the Servicer has become aware of such move. The Reallocation Payment must be made by the Servicer on the next Deposit Date following the end of such 90-day period.
(d)
The Servicer shall be required to pay to the Trust any Monthly Payments (less any unearned rent charges calculated under the scheduled actuarial method) that have been forgiven in connection with a 2007-1 Lease pursuant to any new lease incentive program.
(e)
The sole remedy of the Trust, the Related Beneficiary and the Related Holder with respect to events causing the Servicer to repurchase certain 2007-1 Vehicles as provided herein, shall be to require the Servicer to make the payment of the Reallocation Payment, as set forth herein. The obligation of the Servicer under this Section shall survive any termination of the Servicer hereunder.
(f)
The Servicer may purchase a Matured Vehicle at any time. In connection with the purchase by the Servicer of a Matured Vehicle pursuant to this Section, with respect to the related 2007-1 Lease, in the event that (i) no Sales Proceeds Advance has been made, the purchase price of such Matured Vehicle will equal the Contract Residual Value of such 2007-1 Lease as of the date of expiration and (ii) a Sales Proceeds Advance has been made, no additional amounts need be remitted by the Servicer except the excess of the Contract Residual Value over the ALG Residual Value; provided, however, that the Servicer shall relinquish all rights to reimbursement of any such Sales Proceeds Advance.
(g)
Immediately prior to the sale or disposition of a Matured Vehicle or a Defaulted Vehicle, the Servicer may reallocate such Matured Vehicle or Defaulted Vehicle from the 2007-1 SUBI to the UTI for purposes of implementing the Servicer’s like kind exchange program. In connection with such reallocation, the Servicer will cause to be deposited into the 2007-1 SUBI Collection Account the Reallocation Payments no later than two Business Days after such reallocation, or, if the Monthly Remittance Condition is met, the Servicer shall be permitted to retain the Reallocation Payments received during a Collection Period until such amounts are required to be disbursed on the next Payment Date.

2.4.
Collections and Payment Date Advance Reimbursement.
(a)
The Servicer shall, with respect to SUBI Collections and amounts in respect of the 2007-1 SUBI Certificate, remit to the 2007-1 SUBI Collection Account (i) all Monthly Payments, (ii) all deposits required by Section 2.2 of the Basic Servicing Agreement, (iii) all Reallocation Payments pursuant to Section 2.3 above, (iv) all Cap Payments or Cap Termination Payments; (v) all Advances and (vi) any Sales Proceeds or Termination Proceeds from the disposition of a Matured Vehicle at auction or through sale to a dealer for which the Servicer was reimbursed during the related Collection Period pursuant to Section 2.4(b)(i) from SUBI Collections, in each case, on the Business Day prior to the Payment Date for so long as the Monthly Remittance Condition is satisfied. So long as the Monthly Remittance Condition is satisfied, the Servicer will remit all such amounts described in the preceding sentence within two Business Days of receipt to an account established and maintained by BMW Capital. If the Monthly Remittance Condition is not satisfied, SUBI Collections will be deposited into the 2007-1 SUBI Collection Account within two Business Days of receipt. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, so long as BMW FS is the Servicer, BMW FS may withhold from the deposit into the 2007-1 SUBI Collection Account any amounts indicated on the related Servicer's Certificate as being due and payable to the Servicer.
Pending deposit into the 2007-1 SUBI Collection Account, SUBI Collections may be employed by the Servicer at its own risk and for its own benefit and shall not be segregated from its own funds; provided, that the Servicer shall be permitted to apply Sales Proceeds for the acquisitions of leases and vehicles through the Like-Kind Exchange Program, in which case it shall remit a like amount from its own funds for allocation in the manner otherwise applicable to such Sales Proceeds. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein or in the Vehicle Trust Agreement, amounts in the escrow account established pursuant to the Like-Kind Exchange Program shall not be subject to any lien so long as there is no Default under the Indenture.
(b)
Pursuant to the Payment Date Certificate, the Servicer shall allocate Available Funds on deposit in the 2007-1 SUBI Collection Account with respect to the related Collection Period and instruct the Trust Agent to make, no later than 11:00 a.m., New York City time on each Payment Date, the following deposits and distributions in the following amounts and order of priority:
(i)

(iii)
to the Note Distribution Account, the Reserve Fund and Certificate Distribution Account, such distributions in the amounts and order of priority as set forth in Sections 8.04(a), 5.04 and 10.01 of the Indenture; and
(iv)
to the Reserve Fund, all net investment earnings on the 2007-1 SUBI Collection Account.
(c)
No trust account will be established to segregate any Payahead Amounts received by Xxxxxxx.
2.5.
Net Deposits. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Servicing Supplement, for so long as BMW FS is the Servicer, the Servicer shall be permitted to deposit into the 2007-1 SUBI Collection Account only the net amount distributable to the Issuer, as holder of the 2007-1 SUBI Certificate, on the related Deposit Date. The Servicer shall, however, account to the Issuer, the Vehicle Trustee, the Trust Agent, the Indenture Trustee (or any successor to the duties of the Indenture Trustee), the Owner Trustee and the Noteholders as if all of the deposits and distributions described herein were made individually.
2.6.
Servicing Compensation.
(a)
As compensation for the performance of its obligations under this Servicing Supplement, the Servicer shall be entitled to receive the Servicing Fee with respect to the 2007-1 SUBI Assets. This Section 2.6(a) replaces Section 2.5(a) of the Basic Servicing Agreement with respect to the 2007-1 SUBI Assets.
(b)
The Servicer shall also be entitled to additional servicing compensation with respect to the 2007-1 SUBI Assets in the form of, among other things, expense reimbursement and any other administrative fees or similar charges under the 2007-1 Leases, including but not limited to any late payment fees now or later in effect, extension fees and early termination fees.
2.7.
Advances.
(a)
On each Deposit Date, the Servicer will, subject to 2.7(c) make, by deposit into the SUBI Collection Account, a Monthly Payment Advance in respect of the unpaid Monthly Payment of a 2007-1 Lease.
(b)
On each Deposit Date, the Servicer may, in its sole discretion, subject to Section 2.7(c), make, by deposit into the 2007-1 SUBI Collection Account, Sales Proceeds Advances. After the Servicer has made a Sales Proceeds Advance with respect to a Matured Vehicle, the Issuer shall have no claim against or interest in such Matured Vehicle or any Sales Proceeds or Termination Proceeds, as the case may be, resulting from the sale or other disposition thereof. If the Servicer shall sell or otherwise dispose of a Matured Vehicle after having made a Sales Proceeds Advance, the Issuer may retain all of such Sales Proceeds Advance, and the Servicer shall retain the related Sales Proceeds or Termination Proceeds, as the case may be, up to the Securitization Value of the related Lease, and will deposit any Sales Proceeds or Termination Proceeds, as the case may be, in excess of the Securitization Value into the SUBI Collection Account. If the Servicer has not sold a Matured Vehicle within 90 days after it has made a Sales Proceeds Advance, it shall be reimbursed for such Sales Proceeds Advance as part of the Payment Date Advance Reimbursement in accordance with Section 2.4(b)(i). Within 30 days of receiving such reimbursement, if the related 2007-1 Vehicle has not been sold, the Servicer shall cause such 2007-1 Vehicle to be sold at auction and shall remit the proceeds associated with such auction sale to the 2007-1 SUBI Collection Account.
(c)
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Servicing Agreement, the Servicer shall be required to make Advances only to the extent that it determines that such Advance will be recoverable from future payments on or in respect of the related 2007-1 Lease or 2007-1 Vehicle.
2.8.
Third Party Claims. The Servicer shall immediately notify the Depositor (in the event that BMW FS is not acting as Servicer), the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee (or any successor to the duties of the Indenture Trustee) upon learning of a claim or Lien of whatever kind of a third party that would materially and adversely affect the interests of the Depositor, the Issuer or the Trust with respect to the 2007-1 SUBI Assets.
2.9.
Contingent and Excess Liability Insurance Policies. So long as any Securities are outstanding, the Servicer shall maintain and pay when due all premiums with respect to the Contingent and Excess Liability Insurance Policies unless each Rating Agency has confirmed in writing that termination would not result in a Rating Event. The Servicer shall maintain such Contingent and Excess Liability Insurance Policies that provide insurance coverage of at least $10 million per accident and permit multiple claims in any policy period.
2.10.
Reporting by the Servicer; Delivery of Certain Documentation.
(a)
On or prior to the Closing Date, and periodically thereafter as required in order to update the contents thereof upon any changes in the matters certified therein, the Servicer shall furnish to the Vehicle Trustee, the Trust Agent and the Related Beneficiary an Officer’s Certificate listing the officers of the Servicer involved in, or responsible for, the servicing of the 2007-1 Leases.

2.12.
Assessment of Compliance and Annual Accountants’ Attestation. (a) Within 90 days after the end of the Servicer's fiscal year (commencing with the fiscal year 2007), the Servicer shall:
(i)
deliver to the Issuer and the Administrator a report regarding the Servicer’s assessment of compliance with the Servicing Criteria during the immediately preceding calendar year, as required under Rules 13a-18 and 15d-18 of the Exchange Act and Item 1122 of Regulation AB. Such report shall be addressed to the Issuer and signed by an authorized officer of the Servicer, and shall address each of the Servicing Criteria specified on a certification substantially in the form of Exhibit C hereto delivered to the Issuer and the Administrator concurrently with the execution of this Agreement;
(ii)
deliver to the Issuer and the Administrator a report of a registered public accounting firm reasonably acceptable to the Issuer and the Administrator that attests to, and reports on, the assessment of compliance made by the Servicer and delivered pursuant to the preceding paragraph. Such attestation shall be in accordance with Rules 1-02(a)(3) and 2-02(g) of Regulation S-X under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act;
(iii)
cause each Subservicer and each Subcontractor determined by the Servicer to be “participating in the servicing function” within the meaning of Item 1122 of Regulation AB, to deliver to the Issuer and the Administrator an assessment of compliance and accountants’ attestation as and when provided in paragraphs (i) and (ii) of this Section; and
(iv)
if requested by the Administrator, acting on behalf of the Issuer, deliver to the Issuer and the Administrator and any other Person that will be responsible for signing the certification (a “Sarbanes Certification”) required by Rules 13a-14(d) and 15d-14(d) under the Exchange Act (pursuant to Section 302 of the Xxxxxxxx-Xxxxx Act of 2002) on behalf of an asset-backed issuer with respect to a securitization transaction a certification in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B.
The Servicer acknowledges that the parties identified in clause (a)(iv) above may rely on the certification provided by the Servicer pursuant to such clause in signing a Sarbanes Certification and filing such with the Commission. The Administrator, acting on behalf of the Issuer, will not request delivery of a certification under clause (a)(iv) above unless the Depositor is required under the Exchange Act to file an annual report on Form 10-K with respect to an Issuer whose asset pool includes the 2007-1 SUBI Certificate.
(b)
Each assessment of compliance provided by a Subservicer pursuant to Section 2.16 shall address each of the Servicing Criteria specified on a certification to be delivered to the Servicer, Issuer and the Administrator on or prior to the date of such appointment. An assessment of compliance provided by a Subcontractor pursuant to Section 2.12(a)(iii) need not address any elements of the Servicing Criteria other than those specified by the Servicer and the Issuer on the date of such appointment.

Such documents will not be physically segregated from other leases, certificates of title, insurance policies and insurance records or other documents related to other leases and vehicles owned or serviced by the Servicer, including leases and Vehicles which are not part of the SUBI Assets. The accounting records and computer systems of BMW FS will reflect the allocation of the 2007-1 Leases and 2007-1 Vehicles to the SUBI, and the interest of the holders of the SUBI Certificate therein. The Servicer may appoint one or more agents to act as subcustodians of certain items relating to the 2007-1 Leases, the certificates of title relating to the 2007-1 Vehicles, the insurance policies and insurance records and other documents related to the 2007-1 Leases and the related Lessees and 2007-1 Vehicles so long as the Servicer remains primarily responsible for their safekeeping.
2.14.
Servicer Defaults; Termination of Servicer.
(a)
Notwithstanding Section 4.1(a) of the Basic Servicing Agreement, the occurrence and continuation of any of the following shall constitute a Servicer Default under the Servicing Agreement:
(i)
the Servicer shall fail to cause the delivery to the Indenture Trustee for distribution to the Noteholders, to the Owner Trustee for distribution to the Trust Certificateholders or to the Vehicle Trustee for distribution to holders of interests in the UTI, the SUBI or any Other SUBI, any required payment, which failure continues for 5 Business Days after discovery of such failure by an officer of the Servicer or receipt by the Servicer of notice thereof from the Indenture Trustee, the Owner Trustee or Noteholders evidencing not less than a majority of the aggregate unpaid principal balance of the Notes, voting together as a single class; or
(ii)
the Servicer fails to duly observe or perform in any material respect any of its covenants or agreements in the Servicing Agreement not otherwise covered in this Section 2.14(a), which failure materially and adversely affects the rights of a Holder of the 2007-1 SUBI Certificate, the Noteholders or Trust Certificateholders, as applicable, and which continues unremedied for 90 days after receipt by the Servicer of written notice thereof from the Indenture Trustee or the Noteholders evidencing not less than a majority of the aggregate unpaid principal balance of the Notes, or such default becomes known to the Servicer;
(iii)
any representation, warranty, or statement of the Servicer made in the Servicing Agreement, any other Basic Document to which the Servicer is a party or by which it is bound or any certificate, report or other writing delivered pursuant to the Servicing Agreement that proves to be incorrect in any material respect when made, which failure materially and adversely affects the rights of a Holder of the 2007-1 SUBI Certificate, the Noteholders or the Trust Certificateholders, continues unremedied for 90 days after receipt by the Servicer of written notice thereof from the Indenture Trustee or the Noteholders evidencing not less than a majority of the aggregate unpaid principal balance of the Notes, or such default becomes known to the Servicer;
(iv)
the entry of a decree or order for relief by a court or regulatory authority having jurisdiction over the Servicer in an involuntary case under the federal bankruptcy laws, as now or hereafter in effect, or another present or future federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law, appointing a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, custodian sequestrator or other similar official of the Servicer or of any substantial part of its property, the ordering the winding up or liquidation of the affairs of the Servicer and the continuance of any such decree or order unstayed and in effect for a period of 90 consecutive days; or
(v)
the commencement by the Servicer of a voluntary case under the federal bankruptcy laws, as now or hereafter in effect, or any other present or future or state bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law, or the consent by the Servicer to the appointment of or taking possession by a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, custodian, sequestrator or other similar official of the Servicer or of any substantial part of its property or the making by the Servicer of an assignment for the benefit of creditors or the failure by the Servicer generally to pay its debts as such debts become due or the taking of corporate action by the Servicer in furtherance of any of the foregoing.
provided, however, that any Servicer Default with respect to the 2007-1 SUBI shall not constitute a Servicing Default with respect to any Other SUBI and any Servicing Default (as such term is defined in the Basic Servicing Agreement) with respect to any Other SUBI shall constitute a Servicer Default (as such term is defined in the Basic Servicing Agreement) only with respect to such SUBI and not with respect to the 2007-1 SUBI.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, delay in or failure of performance referred to under clause (iii) for a period of 120 days, under clause (i) for a period of 45 days or clause (iv) for a period of 60 days, will not constitute an Servicer Default if that failure or delay was caused by force majeure or other similar occurrence. Upon the occurrence of any such event, the Servicer will not be relieved from using all commercially reasonable efforts to perform its obligations in a timely manner in accordance with the terms of the Servicing Agreement, and the Servicer will provide to the Indenture Trustee, the Vehicle Trustee, the Depositor and the Securityholders prompt notice of such failure or delay by it, together with a description of its efforts to so perform its obligations.
(b)
Upon the occurrence and continuation of any Servicer Default under the Servicing Agreement, the Servicer shall provide to the Indenture Trustee, the Owner Trustee, and any Noteholders prompt notice of such failure or delay by it, together with a description of its efforts to so perform its obligations.
(c)
In addition to the provisions of Section 4.1(b) of the Basic Servicing Agreement, if a Servicer Default shall have occurred and be continuing with respect to the 2007-1 SUBI, the Vehicle Trustee may, to the extent such Servicer Default relates to the SUBI Assets, upon the direction of the holder and pledgee of the SUBI Certificates, terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Servicer under the Servicing Agreement with respect to the SUBI Assets. For purposes of the immediately preceding sentence, the holder of the SUBI Certificate will be the Indenture Trustee acting at the direction of Noteholders holding not less than the Required Percentage, so long as any Notes are outstanding. In each case, upon written direction from the holder of the SUBI Certificate, the Vehicle Trustee will effect that termination by delivering notice thereof to the Servicer, with a copy to each Rating Agency or any other securities based on any Other SUBIs affected by that Servicer Default.
(d)
Upon the termination of the Servicer with respect to the SUBI Assets, the Servicer subject to that termination or removal will continue to perform its functions as Servicer, until the earlier of the date specified in the termination notice or, if no such date is specified therein, the date of the Servicer’s receipt of such notice.
(e)
In the event of a termination of the Servicer as a result of a Servicer Default with respect to the SUBI Assets only, the Vehicle Trustee, acting at the direction of the holder of the SUBI Certificate – which holder for this purpose will be the Indenture Trustee, acting at the direction of Noteholders holding not less than Required Percentage will appoint a successor Servicer. The Vehicle Trustee will have the right to approve that successor Servicer, and that approval may not be unreasonably withheld.
(f)
In the event the Servicer is removed with respect to servicing the 2007-1 SUBI Assets, the Servicer shall be entitled to reimbursement for any outstanding Advances made pursuant to this Supplement, to the extent of the funds available therefore.
