There are no significant obligors, external enhancement or support providers, or other material parties related to the Notes or Certificates.
 
In addition, there are no business relationships, agreements, arrangements, transactions or understandings outside the ordinary course of business or on terms other than would be obtained in an arm’s length transaction with an unrelated party, apart from this asset-backed securities transaction involving the issuance of the Notes and Certificates by the Issuing Entity, between the Sponsor, the Depositor or the Issuing Entity and any of the parties, or affiliates of such parties, mentioned in this Item.
