(f/k/a GMAC Inc. and General Motors Acceptance Corporation) (“Ally Financial”), as Servicer and as Initial Trust Beneficiary, as acknowledged and agreed to by Ally Bank (f/k/a GMAC Automotive Bank) (“Ally Bank”), as a Trust Beneficiary pursuant to the Designation of Trust Beneficiary and Creation of Series of Beneficial Interest, dated as of August 2, 2004 (the “Ally Bank Designation”), by Ally Financial, as Servicer and Initial Trust Beneficiary, and Ally Bank, and accepted and agreed to by the VAULT Trustee and as acknowledged and agreed to by Ally

(c) that certain Declaration of Trust, dated as of April 7, 2010 (as it may be amended from time to time, the “Declaration of Trust”), by Deutsche Bank Trust Company Delaware, as ACOLT Owner Trustee (the “ACOLT Owner Trustee”), and acknowledged, accepted and agreed to by Ally Central Originating Lease LLC, as Residual Certificateholder (the “Residual Certificateholder”); and

(d) that certain ACOLT 2013-SN1 Supplement to Declaration of Trust (as amended, modified or supplemented from time to time, the “ACOLT 2013-SN1 Series Supplement”), to be dated on or about June 5, 2013, between the Residual Certificateholder and the ACOLT Owner Trustee.

Capitalized terms used herein and not otherwise defined shall have the respective meanings set forth in the VAULT Trust Agreement, or if not defined therein, in Part I of Exhibit I to the Declaration of Trust, or if not defined therein, in Part I of Appendix A to the Administration Agreement, to be dated on or about June 5, 2013, by and among Ally Auto Assets LLC, Ally Financial and Ally Auto Receivables Trust 2013-SN1 (“AART”).

Furthermore, Ally Financial, as Servicer, shall provide notice to the VAULT Trustee of its intention to exercise the optional repurchase right with respect to the Lease Assets under Section 7.01 of the Servicing Agreement.

Pursuant to Section 2 of the VAULT Pledge and Security Agreement, the Leased Vehicles identified on Schedule I shall from and after the Transfer Effective Date constitute part of the VAULT Pledged Collateral for purposes of the VAULT Pledge and Security Agreement.

Pursuant to Section 3.2 of the Declaration of Trust, and in accordance with Section 10.1(a) of the ACOLT 2013-SN1 Series Supplement, the Residual Certificateholder hereby directs the ACOLT Owner Trustee to identify and allocate or cause to be identified and allocated the ACOLT Lease Assets identified on Schedule I hereto to Series 2013-SN1 and the Series 2013-SN1 Portfolio.
