FORM OF [____]-[_] SUBI CERTIFICATE
FINANCIAL SERVICES VEHICLE TRUST
[____]-[_] SPECIAL UNIT OF BENEFICIAL INTEREST CERTIFICATE
No. R-___
evidencing a fractional undivided interest in all [____]-[_] SUBI Assets (as defined below).
This [____]-[_] Special Unit of Beneficial Interest Certificate does not represent an interest in or obligation of BMW Financial Services NA, LLC, [_______________] or any of their respective affiliates, except to the extent described below.
THIS CERTIFIES THAT ________________ is the registered owner of a nonassessable, fully-paid, undivided interest in the [____]-[_] SUBI Assets owned by Financial Services Vehicle Trust (the “Trust”).
The Trust was created pursuant to a trust agreement, dated as of August 30, 1995, as amended, supplemented or restated from time to time (the “Vehicle Trust Agreement”), among BMW Manufacturing L.P. (“BMW LP”), as grantor and initial beneficiary (in such capacities, the “Grantor” and the “UTI Beneficiary”, respectively), and [The Bank of New York (Delaware)], as trustee (the “Trustee”).
This certificate is a duly authorized [____]-[_] SUBI Certificate, and is issued under and is subject to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Vehicle Trust Agreement and the [____]-[_] vehicle trust supplement thereto, dated as of [___________] (the “[____]-[_] SUBI Supplement” and, together with the Vehicle Trust Agreement, the “SUBI Trust Agreement”). To the extent not otherwise defined herein, capitalized terms used herein have the meanings assigned thereto in the SUBI Trust Agreement. By acceptance of this [____]-[_] SUBI Certificate, the Holder hereof assents to the terms and conditions of the SUBI Trust Agreement and agrees to be bound thereby. A summary of certain of the pertinent provisions of the SUBI Trust Agreement is set forth below.
The assets of the Trust allocated to the [____]-[_] SUBI will generally consist of (i) cash capital, (ii) the [____]-[_] Leases and (iii) the [____]-[_] Vehicles and all of the Trust’s rights thereunder, including the right to proceeds arising therefrom or in connection therewith.
Under the Vehicle Trust Agreement, from time to time the UTI Beneficiary may direct the Trustee to issue to or upon the order of the UTI Beneficiary one or more certificates (each, a “ SUBI Certificate”) representing a beneficial interest in certain specified Vehicles, Leases and related Trust Assets (such assets, the “SUBI Assets”). Upon the issuance of the SUBI Certificates relating to the SUBI Assets, the beneficial interest in the Trust and the Trust Assets represented by the UTI shall be reduced by the amount of the Trust Assets represented by such SUBI Certificates. This certificate evidences an interest in all [____]-[_] SUBI Assets, was issued pursuant to the [____]-[_] SUBI Supplement and represents a beneficial interest in the [____]-[_] SUBI Assets.
The UTI and the [____]-[_] SUBI shall each constitute a separate series of the Trust pursuant to Section 3806(b)(2) of the Delaware Act for which separate and distinct records shall be maintained. The [____]-[_] SUBI Certificate and the interest in the [____]-[_] SUBI represented thereby constitutes a “security” within the meaning of Section 8-102(a)(15) of the UCC and a “certificated security” within the meaning of Section 8-102(a)(4) of the UCC.
The [____]-[_] SUBI Supplement may be amended by the parties thereto upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the [____]-[_] SUBI Supplement.
The Holder, by acceptance of this [____]-[_] SUBI Certificate, covenants and agrees that prior to the date that is one year and one day after the date upon which all obligations under each Securitized Financing have been paid in full, it will not institute against, or join any other Person in instituting against any Grantor, the Trustee, the Trust, any Beneficiary, any general partner of a Beneficiary or of a Special Purpose Affiliate that is a partnership or any member of a Beneficiary or Special Purpose Affiliate (or any of their respective general partners) that is a limited liability company, any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation Proceeding or other Proceedings under any federal or state bankruptcy or similar law. Such covenant shall survive the termination of the SUBI Trust Agreement, the resignation or removal of the Trustee under the SUBI Trust Agreement or the complete or partial resignation of the Servicer.
The Holder hereof or owner of a beneficial interest herein 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 [____]-[_] SUBI as [____]-[_] SUBI Assets and those proceeds or assets derived from or earned by such [____]-[_] SUBI Assets and (ii) expressly subordinates in favor of the Holder of any Other SUBI Certificate 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 [____]-[_] SUBI Certificate, and the Holder of this [____]-[_] SUBI Certificate shall notify the Trustee of any change of address or instructions on the distribution of funds.
Upon the dissolution of the Trust with respect to the [____]-[_] SUBI, the [____]-[_] SUBI shall be terminated and the [____]-[_] SUBI Certificates shall be returned to the Trustee for cancellation. Such a termination shall not effect a termination of the Trust or of any Other SUBIs that is in existence at the time of such termination.
The 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, the 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 [____]-[_] SUBI Certificate shall be governed by and construed under the internal laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to any otherwise applicable principles of conflict of laws.
Unless this [____]-[_] SUBI Certificate shall have been executed by an authorized officer of the Trustee, by manual signature, this [____]-[_] SUBI Certificate shall not entitle the holder hereof to any benefit under the SUBI Trust Agreement or be valid for any purpose.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, [The Bank of New York (Delaware)], as Trustee of the Trust and not in its individual capacity, has caused this [____]-[_] SUBI Certificate to be duly executed.
