RECITALS
WHEREAS, pursuant to an Amended and Restated Trust Agreement, dated as of January 31, 2011 (the “Titling Trust Agreement”), between the Settlor and Wilmington Trust Company, as Owner Trustee, Administrative Trustee and Delaware Trustee, the Titling Trust was created to, among other things, take assignments and conveyances of and hold in trust various assets (the “Trust Assets”);
WHEREAS, the Titling Trust, the Servicer, the Settlor and the Collateral Agent, have entered into a Second Amended and Restated Servicing Agreement, dated as of May 23, 2013 (as the same may be further amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Basic Servicing Agreement”), which provides for, among other things, the servicing of the Trust Assets by the Servicer; and
WHEREAS, the parties hereto acknowledge that in connection with the execution of the 2015-1 Exchange Note Supplement, dated as of February 1, 2015 (as the same may be amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “2015-1 Exchange Note Supplement”) to the Amended and Restated Credit and Security Agreement, dated as of May 23, 2013 (as the same may be further amended, restated, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Credit and Security Agreement”), each among the Titling Trust, as borrower, GM Financial, as lender and Servicer, and Xxxxx Fargo, as Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent, pursuant to which an Exchange Note (the “2015-1 Exchange Note”) will be created, it is necessary and desirable to enter into a supplement to the Basic Servicing Agreement to provide for, among other things, the servicing of the Trust Assets allocated to the 2015-1 Designated Pool.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements herein contained, and of other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

SERVICING OF 2015-1 DESIGNATED POOL
SECTION 2.1. Servicing of 2015-1 Designated Pool. The parties hereto agree that the Servicer shall service, administer and make collections on the 2015-1 Designated Pool in accordance with the terms and provisions of the Basic Servicing Agreement, as amended and supplemented by the terms and provisions of this 2015-1 Servicing Supplement.
SECTION 2.2. Identification of 2015-1 Lease Agreements and 2015-1 Leased Vehicles; Securitization Value. On the Closing Date, the Servicer shall identify as 2015-1 Exchange Note Assets the Lease Agreements and the Leased Vehicles relating to such Lease Agreements listed on the Schedule of 2015-1 Lease Agreements and 2015-1 Leased Vehicles attached as Schedule A to the 2015-1 Exchange Note Supplement. The Servicer shall calculate the Securitization Value for each 2015-1 Lease Agreement as of the Cutoff Date.
SECTION 2.3. Accounts.
(a) The Indenture Trustee shall establish and maintain, at all times during the term of the Indenture, an Eligible Deposit Account in the name of and under the control of the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Noteholders (said account being called the “2015-1 Exchange Note Collections Account” and being initially identified as “GM Financial 2015-1 Exchange Note Collections Account”). Deposits to and withdrawals from the 2015-1 Exchange Note Collections Account shall be made as set forth in the 2015-1 Servicing Agreement, the 2015-1 Exchange Note Supplement and the Indenture.
(b) The Indenture Trustee shall establish and maintain, at all times during the term of the Indenture, an Eligible Deposit Account in the name of and under the control of the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Noteholders (said account being called the “Indenture Collections Account” and being initially identified as “GM Financial 2015-1 Indenture Collections Account”). Deposits to and withdrawals from the 2015-1 Indenture Collections Account shall be made as set forth in the 2015-1 Exchange Note Supplement and the Indenture.
(c) The Indenture Trustee shall establish and maintain, at all times during the term of the Indenture, an Eligible Deposit Account in the name of and under the control of the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Noteholders (said account being called the “Note Payment Account” and being initially identified as “GM Financial 2015-1 Note Payment Account”). Deposits to and withdrawals from the Note Payment Account shall be made as set forth in the Indenture and the Note Purchase Agreement.
(d) The Indenture Trustee shall establish and maintain, at all times during the term of the Indenture, an Eligible Deposit Account in the name of and under control of the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Noteholders (said account being called the “Reserve Account” and being initially identified as “GM Financial 2015-1 Reserve Account”).
2
(e) All monies deposited from time to time in the Accounts pursuant to this 2015-1 Servicing Supplement and the other Program Documents and the Accounts shall be held by the Indenture Trustee as part of the Indenture Collateral and shall be applied to the purposes herein and therein provided. If any Account shall cease to be an Eligible Deposit Account, the Indenture Trustee shall, as necessary, assist the Servicer in causing such Account to be moved to an institution at which it shall be an Eligible Deposit Account.
(f) Notwithstanding Section 3.1(f) of the Basic Servicing Agreement, if, at any time, any of the Accounts ceases to be an Eligible Deposit Account, the Servicer shall within thirty (30) days (or such longer period as to which the Rating Agencies rating any securities backed by the related Exchange Note may consent) establish a new Account as an Eligible Deposit Account and shall transfer any cash and/or any investments to such new Account.
(g) The Indenture Trustee or other Person holding the Accounts shall be the “Securities Intermediary” with respect to the Accounts. If the Securities Intermediary in respect of the Accounts is not the Indenture Trustee, the Servicer shall obtain the express agreement of such Person to the obligations of the Securities Intermediary set forth in this Section 2.3(g). The Securities Intermediary agrees that:
(i) Each of the Accounts is an account to which “financial assets” within the meaning of Section 8-102(a)(9) (“Financial Assets”) of the UCC in effect in the State of New York will be credited;
(ii) All securities or other property underlying any Financial Assets credited to any Account shall be registered in the name of the Securities Intermediary, endorsed to the Securities Intermediary or in blank or credited to another securities account maintained in the name of the Securities Intermediary and in no case will any Financial Asset credited to an Account be registered in the name of the Issuer, payable to the order of the Issuer or specially endorsed to the Issuer;
(iii) All property delivered to the Securities Intermediary pursuant to the 2015-1 Servicing Agreement and the Indenture will be promptly credited to the applicable Account;
(iv) Each item of property (whether investment property, security, instrument or cash) credited to an Account shall be treated as a Financial Asset;
(v) If at any time the Securities Intermediary shall receive any order from the Indenture Trustee directing transfer or redemption of any Financial Asset relating to an Account, the Securities Intermediary shall comply with such entitlement order without further consent by the Issuer or the Servicer;
(vi) Each Account shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York, regardless of any provision of any other agreement. For purposes of the UCC, New York shall be deemed to be the Securities Intermediary’s jurisdiction and the Accounts (as well as the “securities entitlements” (as defined in Section 8-102(a)(17) of the UCC) related thereto) shall be governed by the laws of the State of New York;
3
(vii) The Securities Intermediary has not entered into, and until termination of the Indenture, will not enter into, any agreement with any other Person relating to the Accounts and/or any Financial Assets credited thereto pursuant to which it has agreed to comply with entitlement orders (as defined in Section 8-102(a)(8) of the UCC) of such other Person and the Securities Intermediary has not entered into, and until the termination of the Indenture will not enter into, any agreement with the Issuer purporting to limit or condition the obligation of the Securities Intermediary to comply with entitlement orders as set forth in Section 2.4; and
(viii) Except for the claims and interest of the Indenture Trustee and the Issuer in the Accounts, the Securities Intermediary knows of no claim to, or interest in, the Accounts or in any Financial Asset credited thereto. If any other Person asserts any Lien, encumbrance, or adverse claim (including any writ, garnishment, judgment, warrant of attachment, execution or similar process) against the Accounts or in any Financial Asset carried therein, the Securities Intermediary will promptly notify the Indenture Trustee, the Noteholders and the Issuer thereof.
The Indenture Trustee shall possess all right, title and interest in all funds on deposit from time to time in the Accounts and in all proceeds thereof, and shall be the only Person authorized to originate entitlement orders in respect of the Accounts.
SECTION 2.4. General Provisions Regarding Accounts.
(a) So long as no Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, all or a portion of the funds in the 2015-1 Exchange Note Collections Account, the Indenture Collections Account, the Note Payment Account and the Reserve Account shall be invested at the direction of the Servicer in Permitted Investments that mature no later than the Business Day prior to the next Payment Date in the Collection Period following the Collection Period during which the investment is made. All income or other gain from investments of monies deposited in the 2015-1 Exchange Note Collections Account, the Indenture Collections Account and the Reserve Account during a Collection Period shall be deposited into the 2015-1 Exchange Note Collections Account, the Indenture Collections Account or the Reserve Account, as applicable, on the related Payment Date, and any loss resulting from such investments shall be charged to 2015-1 Exchange Note Collections Account, the Indenture Collections Account or the Reserve Account, as applicable. The Titling Trust will be the tax owner of the 2015-1 Exchange Note Collections Account and all investment earnings on the 2015-1 Exchange Note Collections Account will be taxable to the Titling Trust. The Issuer or, if there is a single Issuer Trust Certificateholder, such Issuer Trust Certificateholder will be the tax owner of the Indenture Collections Account and all investment earnings on the Indenture Collections Account will be taxable to the Issuer or such Issuer Trust Certificateholder, as the case may be. The Issuer or, if there is a single Issuer Trust Certificateholder, such Issuer Trust Certificateholder will be the tax owner of the Reserve Account and all investment earnings on the Reserve Account will be taxable to the Issuer or such Issuer Trust Certificateholder, as the case may be.
The Indenture Trustee will not be directed to make any investment of any funds or to sell any Permitted Investment held in the 2015-1 Exchange Note Collections Account, the Indenture Collections Account and the Reserve Account unless the security interest Granted and perfected
4
in the 2015-1 Exchange Note Collections Account, the Indenture Collections Account and the Reserve Account will continue to be perfected in such Permitted Investment or the proceeds of such sale, in either case without any further action by any Person. Except as directed by the Note Purchaser after the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, no such Permitted Investment shall be sold prior to maturity.
(b) If (i) the Servicer shall have failed to give investment directions for funds on deposit in the 2015-1 Exchange Note Collections Account, the Indenture Collections Account and the Reserve Account to the Indenture Trustee by 12:00 noon, New York City time (or such other time as may be agreed by the Indenture Trustee), on any Business Day, (ii) an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing but the Notes shall not have been declared due and payable pursuant to Section 5.2 of the Indenture, or (iii) if the Notes shall have been declared due and payable following an Event of Default but amounts collected or receivable from the Issuer Trust Estate are being applied as if there had not been such a declaration, then the Indenture Trustee shall hold funds on deposit in the 2015-1 Exchange Note Collections Account, the Indenture Collections Account and the Reserve Account uninvested.
(c) Subject to Section 6.1(c) of the Indenture, the Indenture Trustee shall not in any way be held liable by reason of any insufficiency in the 2015-1 Exchange Note Collections Account, the Indenture Collections Account and the Reserve Account resulting from any loss on any Permitted Investment included therein except for losses attributable to the Indenture Trustee as obligor as a result of the Indenture Trustee’s failure to make payments on such Permitted Investments issued by the Indenture Trustee, in its commercial capacity as principal obligor and not as trustee, in accordance with their terms.
SECTION 2.5. Reallocation and Repurchase of 2015-1 Lease Agreements and 2015-1 Leased Vehicles; Purchase of Matured Vehicles.
(a) In the event the Servicer (i) grants an extension with respect to any 2015-1 Lease Agreement that is inconsistent with the Customary Servicing Practices or that extends the term of such 2015-1 Lease Agreement past the Exchange Note Final Scheduled Payment Date, (ii) modifies any 2015-1 Lease Agreement to change the related Contract Residual Value or Monthly Payment, or (iii) is notified the Titling Trust no longer owns any 2015-1 Leased Vehicle, except to the extent that any such modification listed in clauses (i) and (ii) of this subsection 2.5(a) is required by law or court order, the Servicer shall, on the Deposit Date related to the Collection Period in which such extension was granted or modification was made, as applicable, cause the reallocation of the affected 2015-1 Lease Agreement and the related 2015-1 Leased Vehicle to the Lending Facility Pool by depositing to the 2015-1 Exchange Note Collections Account an amount equal to the Repurchase Payment with respect to such 2015-1 Lease Agreement and the related 2015-1 Leased Vehicle.
(b) Upon discovery by the Servicer, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee or the Depositor that any representation or warranty contained in Section 2.12 was incorrect in respect of any 2015-1 Lease Agreement or the related 2015-1 Leased Vehicle as of the Cutoff Date in a manner that materially adversely affects the interest of the Issuer or the Noteholders in such 2015-1 Lease Agreement or such 2015-1 Leased Vehicle, the entity discovering such incorrectness (if other than the Servicer) shall give prompt written notice to the Servicer. By no
5
later than the end of the Collection Period including the date that is two (2) months after the date on which the Servicer discovers or is notified of such incorrectness, the Servicer shall cure in all material respects the circumstance or condition with respect to which the representation or warranty was incorrect as of the Cutoff Date. If the Servicer does not cure such circumstance or condition by such date, then the Servicer shall cause the reallocation of the affected 2015-1 Lease Agreement and the related 2015-1 Leased Vehicle to the Lending Facility Pool by depositing to the 2015-1 Exchange Note Collections Account on the Deposit Date relating to the next succeeding Payment Date an amount equal to the Repurchase Payment with respect to such 2015-1 Lease Agreement and the related 2015-1 Leased Vehicle. The Indenture Trustee will (i) notify the Servicer, GM Financial and the Depositor, as soon as practicable and in any event within five (5) Business Days and in the manner set forth for providing notices hereunder, of all demands or requests communicated (in writing or orally) to the Trustee for the reallocation of any 2015-1 Lease Agreement and the related 2015-1 Leased Vehicle pursuant to this clause (b), (ii) promptly upon request by the Servicer, GM Financial or the Depositor, provide to them any other information reasonably requested to facilitate compliance by them with Rule 15Ga-1 under the Exchange Act and Items 1104(e) and 1121(c) of Regulation AB, and (iii) if requested by the Servicer, GM Financial or the Depositor, provide a written certification no later than fifteen (15) days following any calendar quarter or calendar year that the Trustee has not received any reallocation demands for such period, or if reallocation demands have been received during such period, that the Trustee has provided all the information reasonably requested under clause (ii) above with respect to such demands. In no event will the Trustee or the Issuer have any responsibility or liability in connection with any filing required to be made by a securitizer under the Exchange Act or Regulation AB.
(c) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2.6(b) of the Basic Servicing Agreement, if the Servicer discovers a breach, or is provided with any notice of a breach pursuant to such section, regarding a Lease Agreement or Leased Vehicle that is a 2015-1 Lease Agreement or 2015-1 Leased Vehicle on the date that such breach is discovered or such notice is provided, the Servicer shall be obligated to take the actions described in such Section 2.6(b) by no later than the Payment Date following the Collection Period in which the related breach is discovered or the related notice is provided (rather than by the Payment Date following the Collection Period that ends at least thirty (30) days after the Servicer discovers or is notified of such breach).
(d) The Servicer shall provide written notice to the Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders of each reallocation to the Lending Facility Pool of a 2015-1 Lease Agreement and the related 2015-1 Leased Vehicle pursuant to Section 2.5(a) or (b) that was made during a Collection Period in the Servicer Report that is delivered for such Collection Period.
(e) The Servicer may purchase any 2015-1 Leased Vehicle that becomes a Matured Vehicle pursuant to Section 2.6(f) of the Basic Servicing Agreement for a purchase price equal to the Contract Residual Value of the related 2015-1 Lease Agreement.
(f) The obligation of the Servicer under this Section 2.5 shall survive any termination of the Servicer hereunder.
6
(g) For so long as the Notes are Outstanding, the Servicer will not be permitted to reallocate any 2015-1 Lease Agreements and related 2015-1 Leased Vehicles from the 2015-1 Designated Pool to the Lending Facility Pool except in accordance with the terms of this Section 2.5 and Section 3.1 of the 2015-1 Exchange Note Supplement.
(h) If a Lessee changes its domicile and such change would reasonably be expected to result in the Titling Trust doing business in a jurisdiction in which it is not licensed and authorized to conduct business in the manner contemplated by the Program Documents, then on the Payment Date related to the Collection Period that ends at least thirty (30) days after the Servicer discovers or is notified of such change, the Servicer shall purchase such 2015-1 Lease Agreement and the related 2015-1 Leased Vehicle by either (i) depositing to the Indenture Collections Account an amount equal to the Repurchase Payment, or (ii) appropriately segregating and designating an amount equal to the Repurchase Payment on its records, pending application thereof pursuant to 2015-1 Servicing Agreement.
SECTION 2.6. 2015-1 Designated Pool Collections.
(a) The Servicer shall, with respect to all 2015-1 Designated Pool Collections, from time to time determine the amount of such 2015-1 Designated Pool Collections and during each Collection Period shall deposit all such 2015-1 Designated Pool Collections in the 2015-1 Exchange Note Collections Account when required pursuant to clause (b).
(b) Notwithstanding Section 2.7(b) of the Basic Servicing Agreement, the Servicer shall remit, or shall cause its agent to remit, all 2015-1 Designated Pool Collections to the 2015-1 Exchange Note Collections Account by the close of business on the second (2nd) Business Day after receipt thereof or, in the case of any 2015-1 Designated Pool Collections received by the Servicer or such agent for which the Servicer or such agent, as applicable, does not have all Payment Information by the close of business on such second (2nd) Business Day, by the close of business on the day on which all such Payment Information is received. Pending deposit into the 2015-1 Exchange Note Collections Account, 2015-1 Designated Pool Collections may be employed by the Servicer at its own risk and for its own benefit and need not be segregated from its own funds.
SECTION 2.7. Servicing Compensation; Expenses. As compensation for the performance of its obligations under the 2015-1 Servicing Agreement, on each Payment Date the Servicer shall be entitled to receive a fee for its performance during the immediately preceding Collection Period or, with respect to the first Payment Date, the period from the 2015-1 Cutoff Date to such Payment Date (the “Designated Pool Servicing Fee”) in accordance with Article V of the 2015-1 Exchange Note Supplement in an amount equal the sum of (x) to the product of (i) one-twelfth (1/12th) (or, with respect to the first Payment Date, 58/360), times (ii) the Servicing Fee Rate, times (iii) the Aggregate Securitization Value as of the opening of business on the first day of such Collection Period, plus (y) any Administrative Charges collected on the 2015-1 Lease Agreements and 2015-1 Leased Vehicles and any other expenses reimbursable to the Servicer.
7
SECTION 2.8. Third Party Claims. In addition to the requirements set forth in Section 2.14 of the Basic Servicing Agreement, upon learning of a Claim or Lien of whatever kind of a third party that would be likely to have a material adverse effect on the interests of the Depositor or the Issuer with respect to the 2015-1 Exchange Note Assets, the Servicer shall immediately notify the Depositor, the Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders of any such Claim or Lien.
SECTION 2.9. Reporting by the Servicer; Delivery of Certain Documentation; Inspection.
(a) (i) On each Determination Date, prior to 12:00 p.m. (Central time), the Issuer shall cause the Servicer to deliver to the Indenture Trustee, the Titling Trust and the Collateral Agent, a Servicer Report with respect to the next Payment Date and the related Collection Period, and (ii) no later than the twenty-second (22nd) day of each month (or the preceding Business Day), prior to 12:00 p.m. (Central time), the Issuer shall cause the Servicer to deliver to the Rating Agencies, a Servicer Report with respect to the next Payment Date and the related Collection Period.

(c) The Servicer will deliver to the Issuer, on or before March 31 of each year, beginning on March 31, 2016, a report regarding the Servicer’s assessment of compliance with certain minimum 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.

9
the Servicer, to the effect that such firm has audited the books and records of GM Financial, in which the Servicer is included as a consolidated subsidiary, and issued its report thereon in connection with the audit report on the consolidated financial statements of GM Financial and that (i) such audit was made in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, and accordingly included such tests of the accounting records and such other auditing procedures as such firm considered necessary in the circumstances, and (ii) the firm is independent of the Servicer within the meaning of the Code of Professional Ethics of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants.
SECTION 2.11. Servicer Defaults; Termination of the Servicer.
(a) Each of the following acts or occurrences constitutes a “Servicer Default” under the 2015-1 Servicing Agreement with respect to the 2015-1 Exchange Note:
(i) any failure by the Servicer to deposit in the 2015-1 Exchange Note Collections Account any required payment, any failure by the Servicer to make or cause the Titling Trust to make any required payments from the 2015-1 Exchange Note Collections Account on account of the 2015-1 Exchange Note or any failure of the Servicer to make any required payment under any other Program Document, which failure continues unremedied for a period of five (5) Business Days after the earlier of the date on which (1) notice of such failure is given to the Servicer by the Indenture Trustee, or (2) an Authorized Officer of the Servicer has actual knowledge of such failure;
(ii) any failure by the Servicer duly to observe or to perform in any material respect any covenants or agreements of the Servicer set forth in the 2015-1 Servicing Agreement or any other Program Document (other than a covenant or agreement a default in the observance or performance of which is elsewhere in this Section specifically dealt with), which failure shall materially and adversely affects the interests of the 2015-1 Secured Parties and shall continue unremedied for a period of sixty (60) days after written notice of such failure is received by the Servicer from the Indenture Trustee or after discovery of such failure by the Servicer;
(iii) any representation or warranty made or deemed made by the Servicer in the 2015-1 Servicing Agreement or in any other Program Document or which is contained in any certificate, document or financial or other statement furnished at any time under or in connection herewith or therewith shall prove to have been incorrect in any material respect, and such incorrectness has a material adverse effect on the interests of the 2015-1 Secured Parties or the Issuer which failure, if capable of being cured, has not been cured for a period of sixty (60) days after written notice of such breach is received by the Servicer from the Indenture Trustee or after discovery of such breach by the Servicer; or
(iv) an Insolvency Event occurs with respect to the Servicer.
(b) Promptly after having obtained knowledge of any Servicer Default, but in no event later than two (2) Business Days thereafter, the Servicer shall deliver to the Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders, written notice thereof in an Officer’s Certificate, accompanied in each case by a description of the nature of the default and the efforts of the Servicer to remedy the same.
10
(c) In addition to the provisions of Section 4.1(d) of the Basic Servicing Agreement, if a Servicer Default shall have occurred and be continuing with respect to the 2015-1 Exchange Note, the Titling Trust shall, acting at the written direction of the Majority Noteholders, or, if there are no Notes Outstanding, the Titling Trust, acting at the direction of Issuer Trust Certificateholder, by notice given to the Servicer, terminate the rights and obligations of the Servicer under the 2015-1 Servicing Agreement in accordance with such Section and the Indenture Trustee, acting at the written direction of the Majority Noteholders, shall appoint a Successor Servicer to fulfill the obligations of the Servicer hereunder in respect of the 2015-1 Lease Agreements and 2015-1 Leased Vehicles. Any such Person shall accept its appointment by a written assumption in a form acceptable to the Indenture Trustee. In the event the Servicer is removed as servicer of the 2015-1 Exchange Note Assets, (i) the Servicer shall deliver or cause to be delivered to or at the direction of the Successor Servicer all Lease Documents with respect to the 2015-1 Lease Agreements and the 2015-1 Leased Vehicles that are then in the possession of the Servicer, (ii) the Servicer shall deliver or cause to be delivered to or at the direction of the Successor Servicer all Security Deposits held by the Servicer with respect to the 2015-1 Exchange Note Assets, and (iii) the Servicer shall deliver to the Successor Servicer all servicing records directly maintained by the Servicer, containing as of the close of business on the date of demand all of the data maintained by the Servicer, in computer format in connection with servicing the 2015-1 Exchange Note Assets. If no Person has accepted its appointment as Successor Servicer when the predecessor Servicer ceases to act as Servicer in accordance with this Section 2.11, the Indenture Trustee, will, without further action, be automatically appointed the Successor Servicer. Notwithstanding the above, if the Indenture Trustee is unwilling or legally unable to act as Successor Servicer, it may appoint, or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint, an institution whose business includes the servicing of lease agreements and the related lease assets, as Successor Servicer. The Indenture Trustee will be released from its duties and obligations as Successor Servicer on the date that a new servicer agrees to appointment as Successor Servicer hereunder. Any Successor Servicer shall be entitled to such compensation as the Servicer would have been entitled to under this 2015-1 Servicing Supplement if the Servicer had not resigned or been terminated hereunder or such additional compensation as the Majority Noteholders and such Successor Servicer may agree on.
(d) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 4.1(f) of the Basic Servicing Agreement, with respect to any Servicer Default related to the 2015-1 Exchange Note Assets, only the Indenture Trustee, acting at the written direction of the Majority Noteholders, or, if there are no Notes Outstanding, the Titling Trust, acting at the direction of the Issuer Trust Certificateholder, may waive any default of the Servicer in the performance of its obligations under the 2015-1 Servicing Agreement and its consequences with respect to the 2015-1 Exchange Note and, upon any such waiver, such default shall cease to exist and any Servicer Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been remedied for every purpose of the 2015-1 Exchange Note Servicing Agreement. No such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or impair any right consequent thereto.
11

No Successor Servicer will have any responsibility for and will not be in default and will incur no liability for, (a) any act or failure to act of any third party, including the Servicer, (b) any inaccuracy or omission in a notice or communication received by such Successor Servicer from any third party, (c) the invalidity or unenforceability of any 2015-1 Lease Agreement under applicable law, (d) the breach or inaccuracy of any representation or warranty made with respect to any 2015-1 Lease Agreement or 2015-1 Leased Vehicle, or (e) the acts or omissions of any successor to it as Successor Servicer.

Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 5.3 of the Basic Servicing Agreement, GM Financial shall not merge or consolidate with any other Person, convey, transfer or lease substantially all its assets as an entirety to another Person, or permit any other Person to become the successor to GM Financial’s business unless, after the merger, consolidation, conveyance, transfer, lease or succession, the successor or surviving entity shall be capable of fulfilling the duties of GM Financial contained in this Agreement and shall be an eligible servicer. Any corporation (a) into which GM Financial may be merged or consolidated, (b) resulting from any merger or consolidation to which GM Financial shall be a party, (c) which acquires by conveyance, transfer, or lease substantially all of the assets of GM Financial, or (d) succeeding to the business of GM Financial, in any of the foregoing cases shall execute an agreement of assumption to perform every obligation of GM Financial under this Agreement and, whether or not such assumption agreement is executed, shall be the successor to GM Financial under this Agreement without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties to this Agreement, anything in this Agreement to the contrary notwithstanding; provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall be deemed to release GM Financial from any obligation.

The Servicer will not be entitled to reimbursement from any 2015-1 Designated Pool Collections for any amounts that it deposits to the 2015-1 Collections Account from its own funds in connection with any Pull Ahead Lease Agreement.
