General Motors Financial Company, Inc. (the “Company”), the ultimate parent of the registrant, has been served with investigative subpoenas to produce documents from state attorneys general and other governmental offices relating to its sub-prime auto finance business and securitization of sub-prime auto loans. In addition, the Company received a document request from the Securities and Exchange Commission in connection with its investigation into certain practices in sub-prime auto loan securitization. The Company is investigating these matters internally and believes the Company is cooperating with all requests. Such investigations could in the future result in the imposition of damages, fines or civil or criminal claims and/or penalties.
On November 24, 2014, a group of investors filed a civil complaint against multiple trustees in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York, purportedly on behalf of and for the benefit of certain residential mortgage backed securities (RMBS) trusts. These filings assert claims for alleged failure by the trustees to enforce repurchase obligations of mortgage loan sellers for purported breaches of representations and warranties, to notify investors of alleged events of default purportedly caused by breaches by mortgage loan servicers and failure to abide by appropriate standards of care following alleged events of default.
ITEM 1119 OF REGULATION AB. (AFFILIATIONS AND CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS)
AmeriCredit Financial Services Inc., the Sponsor and the servicer, is a Delaware corporation and is the originator of 100% of the automobile loan contracts. The Sponsor purchases automobile loan contracts that are originated and assigned to it by automobile dealers and, to a lesser extent, third-party lenders and also originates automobile loan contracts directly with consumers, either directly or through a wholly-owned subsidiary. The Sponsor services all automobile loan contracts that it purchases or originates on behalf of the Issuing Entity, AmeriCredit Automobile Receivables Trust 2014-4, a Delaware statutory trust.
The Sponsor sold and assigned the pool of initial automobile loan contracts to AFS SenSub Corp., the Depositor, a Nevada corporation. The Depositor then sold the pool of sub-prime automobile loan contracts to the Issuing Entity and is the sole owner of the certificate of the Issuing Entity.
General Motors Financial of Canada, Ltd., or GMF of Canada, is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Sponsor. GMF of Canada services a portion of the automobile loan contracts in the United States on behalf of the Issuing Entity through its service center in Peterborough, Ontario. GMF of Canada utilizes the Sponsor’s standardized servicing policies and procedures and operates on the same single, unified and interconnected software platform that the Sponsor’s other servicing centers utilize. GMF of Canada is managed by the same executive officers of the Sponsor that oversee the rest of the Sponsor’s operations, including servicing through its other servicing centers. GMF of Canada is operated as a separate legal entity from the Sponsor due solely to the location of its servicing center in a foreign jurisdiction, despite being operated identically to the Sponsor’s other servicing centers and not as a stand-alone entity (other than as is required for regulatory and corporate governance purposes).
