ITEM 1112(B) OF REGULATION AB. SIGNIFICANT OBLIGORS OF POOL ASSETS (FINANCIAL INFORMATION).

ITEM 1114(B)(2) OF REGULATION AB. CREDIT ENHANCEMENT AND OTHER SUPPORT, EXCEPT FOR CERTAIN DERIVATIVES INSTRUMENTS (INFORMATION REGARDING SIGNIFICANT ENHANCEMENT PROVIDERS).

No entity or group of affiliated entities provides any external credit enhancement or other support with respect to either payment on the pool assets held by the Trust or payments on the notes (the "Notes") or certificates (the "Certificates") issued by the Trust.

ITEM 1115(B) OF REGULATION AB. CERTAIN DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS (FINANCIAL INFORMATION).

Based on the standards set forth in Item 1115(b) of Regulation AB, no information is required in response to this item.

ITEM 1117 OF REGULATION AB. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS.

No legal proceedings are pending (or known to be contemplated by governmental authorities) against MUFG Union Bank, N.A. (the "Prior Indenture Trustee") nor is any property of any of the Prior Indenture Trustee subject to any such proceedings, that are material to holders of the Notes or the Certificates. The Prior Indenture Trustee was indenture trustee under the indenture from the period January 1, 2021 to March 14, 2021. As of March 15, 2021 U.S. Bank National Association (“U.S. Bank” or “Successor Indenture Trustee”) became indenture trustee and succeeded MUFG Union Bank, N.A. under the indenture and the other transaction documents in such role and its other capacities. Pursuant to an agreement between the Prior Indenture Trustee and the Successor Indenture Trustee, MUFG Union Bank, N.A. remained involved in the servicing function until August 2, 2021, performing sub-trustee and sub-paying agent duties, until all functions were fully transferred to the Successor Indenture Trustee.

The following events have been brought to our attention by U.S. Bank, in its capacity as indenture trustee:

U.S. Bank and other large financial institutions have been sued in their capacity as trustee or successor trustee for certain residential mortgage backed securities (“RMBS”) trusts. The complaints, primarily filed by investors or investor groups against U.S. Bank and similar institutions, allege the trustees caused losses to investors as a result of alleged failures by the sponsors, mortgage loan sellers and servicers to comply with the governing agreements for these RMBS trusts. Plaintiffs generally assert causes of action based upon the trustees’ purported failures to enforce repurchase obligations of mortgage loan sellers for alleged breaches of representations and warranties, notify securityholders of purported events of default allegedly caused by breaches of servicing standards by mortgage loan servicers and abide by a heightened standard of care following alleged events of default.

U.S. Bank denies liability and believes that it has performed its obligations under the RMBS trusts in good faith, that its actions were not the cause of losses to investors, that it has meritorious defenses, and it has contested and intends to continue contesting the plaintiffs’ claims vigorously. However, U.S. Bank cannot assure you as to the outcome of any of the litigation, or the possible impact of these litigations on the trustee or the RMBS trusts.

On March 9, 2018, a law firm purporting to represent fifteen Delaware statutory trusts (the “DSTs”) that issued securities backed by student loans (the “Student Loans”) filed a lawsuit in the Delaware Court of Chancery against U.S. Bank in its capacities as indenture trustee and successor special servicer, and three other institutions in their respective transaction capacities, with respect to the DSTs and the Student Loans. This lawsuit is captioned The National Collegiate Student Loan Master Trust I, et al. v. U.S. Bank National Association, et al., C.A. No. 2018-0167-JRS (Del. Ch.) (the “NCMSLT Action”). The complaint, as amended on June 15, 2018, alleged that the DSTs have been harmed as a result of purported misconduct or omissions by the defendants concerning administration of the trusts and special servicing of the Student Loans. Since the filing of the NCMSLT Action, certain Student Loan borrowers have made assertions against U.S. Bank concerning special servicing that appear to be based on certain allegations made on behalf of the DSTs in the NCMSLT Action.

U.S. Bank has filed a motion seeking dismissal of the operative complaint in its entirety with prejudice pursuant to Chancery Court Rules 12(b)(1) and 12(b)(6) or, in the alternative, a stay of the case while other prior filed disputes involving the DSTs and the Student Loans are litigated. On November 7, 2018, the Court ruled that the case should be stayed in its entirety pending resolution of the first-filed cases. On January 21, 2020, the Court entered an order consolidating for pretrial purposes the NCMSLT Action and three other lawsuits pending in the Delaware Court of Chancery concerning the DSTs and the Student Loans, which remains pending.

U.S. Bank denies liability in the NCMSLT Action and believes it has performed its obligations as indenture trustee and special servicer in good faith and in compliance in all material respects with the terms of the agreements governing the DSTs and that it has meritorious defenses. It has contested and intends to continue contesting the plaintiffs’ claims vigorously.

Except as described in the previous paragraphs, no other legal proceedings are pending (or known to be contemplated by governmental authorities) against any of World Omni Financial Corp. (the "Sponsor"), World Omni Auto Leasing LLC (the "Depositor"), MUFG Union Bank, N.A. (the "Indenture Trustee"),the Prior Indenture Trustee, the Successor Indenture Trustee, the Trust or the other parties described in Item 1117 of Regulation AB nor is any property of any of the foregoing entities subject to any such proceedings, that are material to holders of the Notes or the Certificates.

ITEM 1119 OF REGULATION AB. AFFILIATIONS AND CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED TRANSACTIONS.

The Sponsor is the originator, as contemplated by Item 1110 of Regulation AB, of all of the pool assets assigned to World Omni LT (the “Titling Trust”). The Titling Trust issues exchange notes, which are secured by certain leases and leased vehicles allocated to the related reference pool of the Titling Trust, including the 2019-B Reference Pool, to Auto Lease Finance LLC. Auto Lease Finance LLC has sold the exchange note secured by the 2019-B Reference Pool to the Depositor, which has transferred such exchange note to the Issuing Entity. The Sponsor is also the primary servicer. The Depositor is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Sponsor and, therefore, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the originator and the primary servicer. Through its purchase of the Certificates, the Depositor has acquired a 100% ownership interest in the Trust; therefore, the Trust is an affiliated party of the Depositor and, indirectly, of the Sponsor (including in its role as originator and primary servicer).

The Successor Indenture Trustee is not affiliated with any of the Sponsor (including in its role as originator and primary servicer), the Depositor or the Trust. However, the Successor Indenture Trustee is the parent of U.S. Bank Trust National Association (the “Owner Trustee”), U.S. Bank National Association, has acquired the debt servicing and securities custody products businesses of the Indenture Trustee.. As of March 15, 2021, U.S. Bank National Association succeeded MUFG Union Bank, N.A. as indenture trustee under the indenture. TheTherefore, the Owner Trustee is a wholly-owned subsidiary of U.S. Bank National Associationthe Successor Indenture Trustee and is therefore an affiliated party of U.S. Bank National Associationthe Successor Indenture Trustee and vice versa. U.S. Bank National Association and MUFG Union Bank, N.A. have entered into an agreement by which MUFG Union Bank, N.A. will continue performing the duties and functions of indenture trustee under the indenture and other transaction documents for a period of time to facilitate an orderly transition. Such transition is currently expected to be completed prior to August 2021.

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 the transaction involving the issuance of the Notes and Certificates, or as otherwise disclosed herein, by the Trust, between the Sponsor, the Depositor or the Trust and any of the parties mentioned in this Item.

ITEM 1122 OF REGULATION AB. COMPLIANCE WITH APPLICABLE SERVICING CRITERIA.

The Sponsor (in its role as servicer), the Prior Indenture Trustee and the Successor Indenture Trustee (collectively, the "Servicing Parties") have each been identified by the registrant as parties participating in the servicing function with respect to the asset pool held by the Trust. Each of the Servicing Parties has completed a report on an assessment of compliance with the servicing criteria applicable to it under Item 1122 of Regulation AB (each, a "Servicing Report"), which Servicing Reports are attached as exhibits to this Form 10-K. In addition, each of the Servicing Parties has provided an attestation report (each, an "Attestation Report") by one or more registered public accounting firms, which reports are also attached as exhibits to this Form 10-K. Neither of the Servicing Reports prepared by the Servicing Parties, or the corresponding Attestation Reports, has identified any material instance of noncompliance with the servicing criteria applicable to the respective Servicing Party.

ITEM 1123 OF REGULATION AB. SERVICER COMPLIANCE STATEMENT.

The Sponsor (in its role as servicer) has been identified by the registrant as servicer with respect to the asset pool held by the Trust. The Sponsor has completed a statement of compliance (a "Compliance Statement"), signed by an authorized officer of the Sponsor. The Compliance Statement is attached as an exhibit to this Form 10-K.
