Item 1117 of Regulation AB. Legal Proceedings.

As a consumer finance company, Exeter Finance LLC (“Exeter”) is subject to various consumer claims and litigation seeking damages and statutory penalties, based upon, among other things, usury, disclosure inaccuracies, wrongful repossession, violations of bankruptcy stay provisions, certificate of title disputes, fraud, breach of contract, improper collection practices, credit bureau reporting and discriminatory treatment of credit applicants. Some litigation against Exeter could take the form of class action complaints by consumers. As the assignee or purchaser of automobile loan contracts originated indirectly by dealers or originated directly by the direct lenders, in each case for sale or assignment to Exeter, Exeter also may be named as a co-defendant in lawsuits filed by consumers principally against such dealers or such direct lenders. The damages and penalties claimed by consumers in these types of matters can be substantial. The relief requested by plaintiffs varies but can include requests for compensatory, statutory and punitive damages. Exeter is also party to, or is periodically otherwise involved in, reviews, investigations, examinations and proceedings (both formal and informal), and information-gathering requests, by government and self-regulatory agencies, including the Federal Reserve, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, the United States Department of Justice, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, the Federal Trade Commission and various state regulatory and enforcement agencies. The penalties and remedies sought by government and self-regulatory agencies in these types of matters can be substantial. Exeter believes that it has taken prudent steps to address and mitigate the litigation and regulatory risks associated with its business activities. As of the date hereof, Exeter is not subject to litigation or reviews, investigations, examinations or proceedings by government or self-regulatory agencies that individually or in the aggregate would materially adversely affect the holders of the Notes.
