On September 17, 2014, Ally Auto and Ally Bank entered into an Underwriting Agreement with Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC, Barclays Capital Inc. and Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated, as representatives of the several underwriters named therein (collectively, the “Underwriters”), for the issuance and sale of certain asset backed notes of Ally Auto Receivables Trust 2014-2 (the “Issuing Entity”) in the following classes: (i) the Class A-1 Asset Backed Notes (the “Class A-1 Notes”), (ii) the Class A-2 Asset Backed Notes (the “Class A-2 Notes”), (iii) the Class A-3 Asset Backed Notes (the “Class A-3 Notes”), (iv) the Class A-4 Asset Backed Notes (the “Class A-4 Notes” and together with the Class A-1 Notes, the Class A-2 Notes and the Class A-3 Notes, the “Class A Notes”), (v) the Class B Asset Backed Notes (the “Class B Notes”), (vi) the Class C Asset Backed Notes (the “Class C Notes”), and (vii) the Class D Asset Backed Notes (the “Class D Notes” and together with the Class A Notes, the Class B Notes and the Class C Notes, the “Notes”). The Notes have an aggregate principal balance of $1,520,910,000. Only the Notes have been registered pursuant to the Act under the Registration Statement.

It is expected that the Notes will be issued on or about September 24, 2014 (the “Closing Date”).

This Current Report on Form 8-K is being filed to satisfy an undertaking to file copies of certain agreements executed in connection with the issuance of the Notes, the forms of which were filed as Exhibits to the Registration Statement.

The Notes will be issued pursuant to an Indenture attached hereto as Exhibit 4.1, to be dated as of the Closing Date between the Issuing Entity and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as Indenture Trustee.
