On October 19, 2004, Nissan Auto Leasing LLC II (“NALL II”) and Nissan Motor Acceptance Corporation (“NMAC”) entered into an Underwriting Agreement with J.P. Morgan Securities Inc., on behalf of itself and as a representative of the several underwriters, for the issuance and sale of notes of Nissan Auto Lease Trust 2004-A in the following classes: Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class A-4a and Class A-4b (collectively, the “Notes”). The Notes have an aggregate scheduled principal balance of $1,470,000,000. The Notes have been registered pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, under a Registration Statement on Form S-1, as amended (File Nos. 333-118256, 333-118256-01, 333-118256-02 and 333-118256-03). It is anticipated that the Notes will be issued on or about October 28, 2004 (the “Closing Date”).
NILT Inc. will create a special unit of beneficial interest (the “2004-A SUBI”) in specified assets of Nissan-Infiniti LT, including certain closed-end retail vehicle lease contracts (the “Leases”), the related Nissan vehicles leased under the Leases (the “Leased Vehicles”) and related property pursuant to the Amended and Restated Trust and Servicing Agreement for Nissan-Infiniti LT, a Delaware statutory trust (“Nissan-Infiniti LT”), dated as of August 26, 1998, by and among NILT Trust, as grantor and initial beneficiary, Nissan Motor Acceptance Corporation (“NMAC”), as servicer, NILT, Inc., as trustee to Nissan-Infiniti LT (the “Trustee”), Wilmington Trust Company, as Delaware trustee, and U.S. Bank National Association (“U.S. Bank”), as trust agent, as it will be supplemented on the Closing Date by a 2004-A SUBI Supplement (the “2004-A SUBI Supplement”). In connection with the creation of the 2004-A SUBI, Nissan-Infiniti LT will issue to NILT Trust a certificate evidencing a 100 percent beneficial interest in the 2004-A SUBI (the “2004-A SUBI Certificate”). On the Closing Date, NILT Trust will sell the 2004-A SUBI Certificate to NALL II pursuant to a SUBI Certificate Transfer Agreement by and between NILT Trust, as transferor, and NALL II, as transferee.
