      Please refer to page iii for a diagram providing an overview of the transaction described in this prospectus. You can find a listing of the pages where the principal terms are defined under “Index of Principal Terms” beginning on page 81.

      All of the motor vehicle dealers (“dealers”) in the VW Credit, Inc. (“VW Credit”) network of dealers have entered into agreements pursuant to which they have assigned and will assign retail closed-end motor vehicle lease contracts to VW Credit Leasing, Ltd., a Delaware business trust (the “Origination Trust”). The Origination Trust was created in June 1999 to avoid the administrative difficulty and expense associated with retitling leased vehicles for the securitization of motor vehicle leases. The Origination Trust issued to VW Credit (the “UTI beneficiary”) the undivided trust interest (the “UTI”) representing the entire beneficial interest in the unallocated assets of the Origination Trust. See “The Origination Trust—Property of the Origination Trust.” In connection with this transaction, the UTI beneficiary will instruct the trustees of the Origination Trust:

The Transaction SUBI will represent the entire beneficial interest in the Included Units. The Origination Trust will issue a certificate evidencing the Transaction SUBI (the “Transaction SUBI Certificate”) to or upon the order of the UTI beneficiary. Upon the creation of the Transaction SUBI, the Included Units will no longer constitute assets of the Origination Trust represented by the UTI and VW Credit’s interest in the Origination Trust assets represented by the UTI will be reduced accordingly. The Transaction SUBI will evidence an indirect beneficial interest, rather than a direct legal interest, in the Included Units. The Transaction SUBI will not represent a beneficial interest in any Origination Trust assets other than the Included Units. Payments made on or in respect of any Origination Trust assets other than the Included Units will not be available to make payments on the Notes. The UTI beneficiary may from time to time cause special units of beneficial interest similar to the Transaction SUBI (each, an “Other SUBI”) to be created. The Issuer (and, accordingly, the noteholders) will have no interest in the UTI, any Other SUBI or any assets of the Origination Trust evidenced by the UTI or any Other SUBI. See “The Origination Trust” and “The Transaction SUBI.”

      On the date of initial issuance of the Notes (the “closing date”), the UTI beneficiary will sell, transfer and assign the Transaction SUBI Certificate to Volkswagen Auto Lease Underwritten Funding, LLC (the “transferor”). The transferor will in turn transfer and assign the Transaction SUBI Certificate to Volkswagen Auto Lease Trust 2002-A (the “Issuer”). The Issuer will issue four classes of Notes (the “Notes”) in an aggregate principal amount of $[                    ] (the “Initial Note Balance”), and will pledge the Transaction SUBI Certificate to the indenture trustee as security therefor. Each Note will represent an obligation of the Issuer.

      As a condition to the issuance of the Notes, Fitch, Inc. or its successors (“Fitch”), Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. or its successors (“Moody’s”) and Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services, a division of the McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. or its successors (“Standard & Poor’s” and, together with Fitch and Moody’s, the “rating agencies”) will rate (i) the Class A-1 Notes in their highest respective short-term rating category and (ii) the remaining classes of the Notes in their highest respective long-term rating category. See “Ratings of the Notes” and “Risk Factors — A change or withdrawal by the rating agencies of their initial ratings may reduce the market value of

Table of Contents

Formation

      The Issuer is a common law trust formed solely for the purposes of the transactions described in this prospectus. The Issuer will be governed by the Trust Agreement, to be dated as of the closing date (the “Trust Agreement”), between the transferor and [               ], as trustee (the “owner trustee”).

      The [owner trustee, on behalf of the] Issuer, will issue the Notes pursuant to an indenture, to be dated as of the closing date (the “Indenture”), between the [owner trustee, on behalf of the] Issuer, and [               ], as trustee (the “indenture trustee”).

      The Issuer will not engage in any activity other than as duly authorized in accordance with the terms of the Trust Agreement. On the closing date, the authorized purposes of the Issuer will be limited to:

The Issuer will not engage in any additional activities or purposes without (1) giving at least ten days’ prior written notice to each rating agency rating the Notes and not receiving notice from any rating agency of its intention to downgrade or withdraw its outstanding rating on any class of Notes as a result of such proposed additional activity or purpose and (2) receiving approval by noteholders representing in the aggregate more than 66 2/3% of the outstanding principal balance of the Notes, voting together as a single class.

      The Issuer’s principal offices will be in [city], in care of the owner trustee, at [the address listed below under “— The Owner Trustee.”]

Capitalization of the Issuer

      On the closing date, in exchange for the transfer of the Transaction SUBI Certificate, the Issuer will pay to the transferor the net proceeds from the sale of the Notes and will issue to

13

Table of Contents

The Owner Trustee

      [Trustee] will be the owner trustee under the Trust Agreement. [Trustee] is a [national banking association][               banking corporation], and its Corporate Trust Office is located at [address]. VW Credit, the transferor and their respective affiliates may maintain normal commercial banking relationships with the owner trustee and its affiliates. The fees and expenses of the owner trustee will be paid by the administrator.

Property of the Issuer

      On the closing date, the transferor will transfer the Transaction SUBI Certificate to the Issuer pursuant to the SUBI Transfer Agreement. The Issuer will then pledge its interest in the Transaction SUBI Certificate to the indenture trustee under the Indenture. See “The Transaction SUBI — Transfers of the Transaction SUBI Certificate.”

      After giving effect to the transactions described in this prospectus, the property designated to the Issuer (the “Trust Estate”) will include:

The Indenture will require the Trust Estate to be pledged by the Issuer to the indenture trustee.

      Because the Transaction SUBI will represent a beneficial interest in the Included Units, noteholders will be dependent on payments made on the Leases and proceeds received in connection with the sale or other disposition of the related Leased Vehicles for payments on the Notes. The Issuer will not have a direct ownership interest in the Leases or a direct ownership interest or perfected security interest in the Leased Vehicles— which will be titled in the name of the Origination Trust (or a trustee thereof) on behalf of the Origination Trust— and it is therefore possible that a claim or lien in respect of the Leased Vehicles or the Origination Trust could limit the amounts payable in respect of the Transaction SUBI Certificate to less than the amounts received from the lessees of the Leased Vehicles or received from the sale or other disposition of the Leased Vehicles. To the extent that a claim or lien were to delay

Table of Contents

      The net proceeds from the sale of the Notes (the proceeds of the sale of the Notes minus the sum of the expenses relating thereto) will be applied by the Issuer to acquire the Transaction SUBI Certificate from the transferor.

General

      The Origination Trust is a Delaware statutory business trust and is governed by the Trust Agreement, dated as of June 2, 1999 (the “Origination Trust Agreement”), among VW Credit, as settlor and initial beneficiary, U.S. Bank National Association (f/k/a U.S. Bank Trust National Association), as UTI trustee (the “UTI Trustee”) and administrative trustee (the “Administrative Trustee”) and Wilmington Trust Company, as Delaware trustee (the “Delaware Trustee”). To provide for the servicing of the Origination Trust assets, the Origination Trust and VW Credit, as the servicer (the “servicer”) have entered into an Amended and Restated Servicing Agreement (the “Base Servicing Agreement”), dated as of December 21, 2000. The primary business purpose of the Origination Trust is to take assignments of, and serve as record holder of title to the Units, in order to facilitate sale or financing transactions involving Units, including the securitization of Units in connection with the issuance of asset backed securities.

      Except as otherwise described under “Additional Document Provisions— The Origination Trust Agreement and the Transaction SUBI Supplement,” under the Origination Trust Agreement, the Origination Trust has not and will not:

Table of Contents

For further information regarding the Origination Trust and the servicing of the Leases and Leased Vehicles, you should refer to “Additional Document Provisions — The Origination Trust Agreement and the Transaction SUBI Supplement” and “— The Servicing Agreement; Servicing of the Transaction SUBI Assets.”

The Transaction SUBI Trustee

      U.S. Bank National Association, a national banking association, is the Transaction SUBI trustee (the “Transaction SUBI Trustee”) for the Transaction SUBI. The Transaction SUBI Trustee is not affiliated with VW Credit or any of its affiliates.

Property of the Origination Trust

      The assets of the Origination Trust generally consist of:

      From time to time after the date of this prospectus, additional leases will be originated by or assigned to the Origination Trust and, as described below, title to the related leased vehicles will be in the name of the Origination Trust (or a nominee or trustee thereof on behalf of the Origination Trust).

Lease Origination and the Titling of Vehicles

      Under each lease, the Origination Trust (or a nominee or trustee thereof on behalf of the Origination Trust) will be listed as the owner of the related leased vehicle on the related certificate of title. Liens will not be placed on the certificates of title, and there will be no indication on any certificates of title to reflect the interest of the Issuer or the indenture trustee, as holder or pledgee, respectively, of the Transaction SUBI Certificate, in the leased vehicles. The certificates of title to the leased vehicles registered in several states may, however, reflect a first lien held by the Origination Trust or the servicer (the “administrative lien”) that will exist solely to provide for delivery of title documentation for the Leased Vehicles to the servicer. Each entity that records an administrative lien (other than the Origination Trust) will enter into an agreement by which it acknowledges that it has no interest in the related leased vehicles and additionally waives, quitclaims and releases any claim that it may have against the leased vehicles by virtue of such liens.

      All Units owned by the Origination Trust will be held for the benefit of entities that from time to time hold beneficial interests in the Origination Trust. Those interests will be evidenced with respect to:

16

Table of Contents

Entities holding beneficial interests in the Origination Trust will not have a direct ownership in the related leases or a direct ownership or perfected security interest in the related leased vehicles.

      The Issuer has no direct interest in the Included Units. Therefore, the Issuer does not have a perfected lien in the Leases or the Leased Vehicles, but will have a perfected security interest in the Transaction SUBI Certificate.

General

      The Transaction SUBI will be issued by the Origination Trust under a supplement to the Origination Trust Agreement to be dated as of the closing date (the “Transaction SUBI Supplement” and, together with the Origination Trust Agreement, the “Transaction SUBI Trust Agreement”). To provide for the servicing of the Included Units, the Origination Trust, the servicer and the Transaction SUBI Trustee will enter into a supplement to the Base Servicing Agreement to be dated as of the closing date (the “Transaction SUBI Servicing Supplement,” and together with the Base Servicing Agreement, the “Servicing Agreement”). The Transaction SUBI will represent a beneficial interest, not a direct interest, in the Included Units. The Transaction SUBI will not represent an interest in any Origination Trust assets other than such Included Units. The Issuer and the noteholders will have no interest in the UTI, any Other SUBI or any assets of the Origination Trust evidenced by the UTI or any Other SUBI. Payments made on or in respect of Origination Trust assets not represented by the Transaction SUBI will not be available to make payments on the Notes. For further information regarding the Origination Trust, you should refer to “The Origination Trust.”

      The Transaction SUBI Certificate will evidence a beneficial interest in the Origination Trust assets allocated to the Transaction SUBI, which will generally consist of the Included Units and all proceeds of or payments on or in respect of the Leases or Leased Vehicles received after the Cutoff Date.

      On the closing date, the Origination Trust will issue the Transaction SUBI Certificate to or upon the order of VW Credit, as UTI beneficiary.

Transfers of the Transaction SUBI Certificate

      Simultaneously with the issuance of the Transaction SUBI Certificate to the UTI beneficiary, the UTI beneficiary will convey the Transaction SUBI Certificate to the transferor pursuant to a transfer agreement, to be dated as of the closing date (the “SUBI Sale Agreement”). The UTI beneficiary will covenant to treat the conveyance of the Transaction SUBI Certificate to the transferor as an absolute sale, transfer and assignment for all purposes.

      Immediately after the transfer of the Transaction SUBI Certificate to the transferor, the transferor will:

17

Table of Contents

In exchange, the Issuer will pay to the transferor the net proceeds from the sale of the Notes to third party investors and will issue to the transferor the certificates.

      Immediately following the transfer of the Transaction SUBI Certificate to the Issuer, the Issuer will pledge its interest in the Trust Estate, which includes the Transaction SUBI Certificate, to the indenture trustee as security for the Notes.

      After the transfer of the Transaction SUBI Certificate to the Issuer, the servicer will be obligated to cause the repurchase of any Units not meeting certain representations and warranties by making Repurchase Payments in respect thereof. Those representations and warranties relate primarily to the origination of the Units and do not typically relate to the creditworthiness of the related lessees, the collectibility of the Leases or the resale value of the related Leased Vehicles and termination or expiration of the Leases. See “The Leases — Representations, Warranties and Covenants”. In addition, the servicer will be required to cause the repurchase of any Units which include Leases as to which the servicer grants a Postmaturity Term Extension. See “VW Credit, Inc. — Extensions”.

      The transferor is a special purpose limited liability company that was formed under the laws of Delaware on August 9, 2002. The sole equity member of the transferor is VW Credit. The principal office of the transferor is located at c/o VW Credit, Inc., 3800 Hamlin Road, Auburn Hills, Michigan 48326 and its telephone number is (248) 754-5000.

      The transferor was organized solely for the purpose of acquiring interests in the Origination Trust, causing securities such as the Notes and the certificates of beneficial interest in the Issuer to be issued, and engaging in related transactions. The limited liability company agreement of the transferor limits its activities to the foregoing purposes and to any activities incidental or necessary thereto.

General

      VW Credit, was incorporated in Delaware on April 2, 1981 and is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Volkswagen of America, Inc. (“VWOA”). VWOA is an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Volkswagen Aktiengesellschaft (“VWAG”). The principal activity of VW Credit is acting as a finance subsidiary of VWOA, including purchasing retail installment sales contracts and leases from Volkswagen and Audi dealers and financing the leasing of new automobiles. VW Credit offers a wide range of automobile-related financial products, including wholesale floor plan financing, retail auto loan and lease financing and certain banking services.

      The principal offices of VW Credit are located at 3800 Hamlin Road, Auburn Hills, Michigan, 48326. Its telephone number is (248) 754-5000.

Lease Underwriting Procedures

      Both auto loan and auto lease applications are generally subject to the same credit policies and procedures at VW Credit. Contracts that are purchased must comply with VW Credit’s underwriting standards and other requirements, as described below, under existing agreements between VW Credit and dealers. VW Credit’s underwriting standards emphasize the prospective lessee’s ability to pay and creditworthiness, as well as the asset value of the motor vehicle to

18

Table of Contents

      Lease applications submitted to VW Credit for a new motor vehicle must list sufficient information to process the application, including the applicant’s:

      VW Credit’s credit decision is influenced by, among other things, the applicant’s custom credit score as obtained from a statistically derived empirical credit scoring process and a credit bureau score. VW Credit uses a two-dimensional credit score matrix based on the custom score and the credit bureau score for loan and lease originations. The custom scorecards were developed for VW Credit by Fair, Isaac and Company, Inc. based on VW Credit’s specific application and origination information. The credit scoring process takes into account information about the applicant, including various debt ratios and other personal information. VW Credit makes its final credit decision based upon the degree of credit risk perceived and the amount of credit requested. To improve overall underwriting efficiency, a portion of VW Credit’s applications are automatically approved or rejected based on an algorithm which takes into consideration the applicant’s credit scores, time in credit bureau, loan to value, prior bankruptcies and other related information.

      VW Credit’s underwriting standards are monitored by its Retail Credit Committee (“RCC”). Any change in VW Credit’s underwriting standards requires prior approval from the RCC.

Determination of Residual Values

      The value of the Notes being offered under this prospectus is based on the sum of the present values (discounted at a rate of      % (the “Securitization Rate”)) of (i) remaining monthly lease payments and (ii) the Base Residual (such sum, the “Securitization Value”) of all the Leases and Leased Vehicles. The “Base Residual” means the lesser of the Stated Residual Value and the ALG Residual. The following discussion relates to VW Credit’s contractual residual values which will affect the return rates of vehicles to VW Credit.

      Each lease sets forth a residual value (the “Stated Residual Value”), which is an amount established at the time of origination of the lease. The Stated Residual Value as provided in the lease agreement is the value of the Vehicle at the end of the lease and is the amount used to calculate the base monthly lease payments under the lease, assuming that the lease amortizes like a loan. If we assume that the original capitalized cost of the lease is the initial principal amount of the loan, that the lease rate is the interest rate, that the lease term is the term of the loan and that all monthly payments are timely made, the Stated Residual Value is the amount to which the outstanding balance would decline at the scheduled expiration of the lease term. When a vehicle is sold after being returned by the lessee at the end of the related lease, there will be a residual loss if the net sales proceeds of the vehicle are less than the Stated Residual Value. In establishing the Stated Residual Value of Volkswagen leased vehicles, VW Credit uses an internally developed proprietary model. The model uses, among other things, key factors such as manufacturer’s suggested retail price (commonly referred to as “MSRP”), wholesale price, brand image, model image, month of lease origination, lease term, product life cycle, and any current or planned sales incentives in its calculation of residual values. The model is reviewed regularly by VW Credit’s Residual Value Committee. The Stated

19

Table of Contents

      The estimated future value of a leased vehicle is a major component of the leasing business. Specifically, any excess of the Stated Residual Value of a vehicle over its actual future market value represents a residual loss at lease termination. VW Credit believes that the difference between the Stated Residual Values and the actual value at maturity may affect consumer behavior concerning purchasing or returning a vehicle to the lessor at lease termination. Furthermore, VW Credit believes that return rates may decline as the difference between Stated Residual Value and actual value declines.

      All of the leases and leased vehicles that have been allocated to the Transaction SUBI have been originated under the residual policies described above. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no assurance can be given as to VW Credit’s future experience with respect to the return rates of Volkswagen and Audi vehicles relating to leases originated under these policies. In addition, no assurance can be given that VW Credit’s experience with respect to the return of off-lease Volkswagen and Audi vehicles or related residual value losses, or the experience of the Issuer with respect to the Leased Vehicles, will be similar to that set forth in the residual value loss experience table set forth under “VW Credit, Inc. — Residual Value Loss Experience”.

      VW Credit believes that the historical residual value loss experience is partially attributable to new car pricing policies of all manufacturers. Many manufacturers have recently endeavored to keep new car pricing flat and, in some cases, less than the prices for models from prior years. New car models frequently have more standard equipment that were included as optional equipment in models from prior years. Additionally, VW Credit believes that the increased popularity of leasing and increased levels of new car sales over the last five years has resulted in a higher supply of late model used vehicles. These factors have exerted additional downward pressure on the value of used vehicles when compared to the price for new vehicles.

Remarketing Program

      VW Credit handles all remarketing of leased vehicles, including customer service, collections, accounting and titling. The remarketing department is managed in Auburn Hills, Michigan. The remarketing department begins a direct mail campaign to all lessees 180 days prior to lease maturity to ascertain whether lessees intend to purchase or return their leased vehicles. The 180 day letter provides each lessee with information regarding the lessee’s lease obligations, including the vehicle inspection and turn-in process and the required documentation. VW Credit continues to attempt to contact each lessee through additional direct mail at 75 days and 21 days prior to lease maturity. If the lessee indicates an intention to purchase the leased vehicle, the lessee is provided with all necessary documents to complete the purchase. Lessees that do not respond to any mailings are contacted using phone calls by VW Credit to determine their intentions and to apprise them of their end-of-term obligations.

20

Table of Contents

      A vehicle inspection normally occurs approximately 25 days prior to lease maturity and may occur at the lessee’s residence, place of business or a dealership. The lessee is provided an estimate for excess wear and tear and excess mileage charges and is encouraged to file insurance claims and make repairs prior to returning the vehicle.

      From time to time, VW Credit has offered lessees special lease “pull ahead” programs on selected models to help mitigate residual value losses. These programs may offer the lessee waiver of lease payments, an extended service contract or reduced APR financing offered through VW Credit. There can be no assurance that VW Credit will offer any such programs in the future.

Lease Vehicle Maintenance

      Each VW Credit lease contract provides that the lessee is responsible for all maintenance, repair, service and operating expenses of the leased vehicle. In addition, the lessee is responsible for all damage to the leased vehicle and for its loss, seizure or theft. At the scheduled maturity date of a VW Credit lease contract, if the lessee does not purchase the leased vehicle, the VW Credit lease contract requires the lessee to pay VW Credit the estimated cost to repair any damages to the vehicle resulting from unreasonable or “excessive” wear and use. Unreasonable or excess wear and use generally includes, but is not limited to, the following: (1) inoperative mechanical and electrical parts including power accessories, (2) any and all dents, dings, scratches, chips or rusted areas on any body or trim part, (3) gouges or tears through bumper covers, broken or dented grilles, (4) mismatched paint or any mark left by special identification, (5) seats, seat belts, headlining, door panels or carpeting which is torn, worn, stained, burned or damaged, (6) cracks, scratches, pits or chips to windshields with glass, (7) any tire not part of a matching set, any tire with less than 1/8 inch of tread or any tire with gouged, cut, torn or plugged sidewalls or (8) any missing parts, accessories and adornments, including bumpers, ornamentation, aerials, hubcaps, rear view mirrors, radio and stereo components or spare tire. VW Credit may at its sole discretion waive all or part of the excessive wear and use charges billed to the lessee.

Methods of Vehicle Disposal

      VW Credit’s vehicle remarketing department handles all motor vehicle sales for VW Credit including repossessions and end of term leases. Each lease provides that upon maturity, the lessee has the option to purchase the related motor vehicle for an amount equal to the Stated Residual Value. If the lessee does not exercise this option, the originating dealer has the option to purchase the vehicle at Stated Residual Value for Volkswagen vehicles and at a price based on the MMR Price (adjusted for mileage) for Audi vehicles. The “MMR Price” of a vehicle is a price quoted in the Manheim Market Report (“MMR”), a publication that monitors and reports the pricing of all cars sold at Manheim Auctions, a large wholesale automobile auction company. Vehicles that are not purchased by the lessee or the dealer are turned over to VW Credit for sale through auction. VW Credit uses a system of auto auctions throughout the United States. VW Credit views speed and efficiency of operations as the most critical aspects of managing off-lease vehicle inventory. VW Credit has an internal target of 45 days from the time a leased vehicle is turned in until it is sold. Credit repossessions are handled in accordance with various state requirements.

      Remarketing decisions related to auction assignment and logistics are primarily electronic. This allows VW Credit to control inventory management, flow of vehicles to the auction and placement of the vehicles to auction locations that it believes will yield the highest net recovery value.

21

Table of Contents

      VW Credit has regular sales at 13 major auction locations throughout the United States. VW Credit’s highest volume is in the northeast region. From time to time, auction capacity and demand for pre-owned vehicles in the northern markets may be insufficient to absorb the volume. Therefore, VW Credit may transport vehicles to different regions where it perceives a greater demand in order to maximize the vehicles’ recovery values.

      The Certified Pre-Owned Vehicle Program (“CPO”) was established by VWOA to create customer and dealer demand for off-lease used Volkswagen and Audi vehicles and to enhance the value of off-lease vehicles. To qualify for CPO, a vehicle must pass an inspection conducted by either the auction or the related dealer based on standards set by VWOA. For CPO vehicles, VWOA provides a limited warranty which covers the vehicle for a selected period of time and mileage. Each CPO vehicle is covered by a roadside assistance program which is similar to that offered on new vehicles. CPO is actively marketed by VWOA using both broadcast and print media.

      Occasionally, VW Credit offers incentives to lease new vehicles to lessees whose lease contracts are nearing expiration. These incentives may include forgiveness of one or more monthly payments otherwise payable under the related lease for Leases allocated to the Transaction SUBI. VW Credit will pay to the Issuer the [discounted] amount of any monthly payments so forgiven. These incentives may increase the turn-in rates for the related vehicles and increase the exposure of noteholders to residual risks.

Insurance

      Each lease contract requires the lessee to obtain and maintain vehicle liability and physical damage insurance on the leased vehicle. VW Credit’s dealer agreements include a requirement that the dealer provide VW Credit with written evidence that the lessee has physical damage and liability insurance which meets the requirements of the lease contract at the inception of the lease. The amount of insurance required by the lease contracts is at least equal to the amount required by applicable state law, subject to customary deductibles. VW Credit requires the policy to name the Origination Trust as the insured and loss payee. VW Credit currently monitors the ongoing status of insurance and attempts to cause the lessee to reinstate insurance in the event the lessee has allowed the policy to lapse; nevertheless, there can be no assurance that each leased vehicle will continue to be covered by liability and physical damage insurance for the entire term of the lease or that VW Credit will continue to monitor insurance while the Notes remain outstanding. VW Credit does not “force place” insurance.

      VW Credit does not require lessees to carry credit disability, credit life, credit health or other similar insurance coverage which provides for payments to be made on the leases on behalf of lessees in the event of disability or death. To the extent that the lessee obtains any of these insurance coverages, payments received on such coverage may, if permitted by applicable law, be applied to payments on the related lease to the extent that the lessee’s beneficiary chooses to do so. At this time, VW Credit does not permit lessees to finance credit life [, credit health or other similar] insurance coverage under a lease.

Collection and Repossession Procedures

      There are two methods for lessees to make monthly lease payments. Most lessees mail payments, along with a statement, to one of three lockboxes. A small percentage of lessees use VW Credit’s automated clearinghouse system.

      VW Credit measures delinquency by the number of days elapsed from the date a payment is due under the lease contract (each, a “Due Date”). VW Credit considers a payment to be past due or delinquent when a lessee fails to make at least 75% of a scheduled payment by

Extensions

      On occasion, VW Credit may extend the term of a lease if (1) the lessee requests such extension (2) the lessee is not in default on any of its obligations under the lease and (3) the lessee agrees to continue to make monthly payments (each, a “Term Extension”). Lessees at the end of a lease who intend to lease another Volkswagen or Audi automobile but cannot do so at lease maturity, for reasons such as awaiting delivery of a new vehicle, preference for the next model year or other timing circumstances, may qualify for a lease Term Extension of up to a maximum of six months. If a Term Extension is granted for any Included Unit beyond the Collection Period preceding the Final Scheduled Payment Date for the [Class A-4 Notes] (a “Postmaturity Term Extension”), VW Credit will be required to deposit into the Collection Account an amount equal to the Securitization Value of the Included Unit, at which time such Included Unit will be repurchased and will no longer constitute Transaction SUBI assets.

Delinquency, Repossession and Loss Data

      Set forth below is information concerning VW Credit’s experience with respect to its entire portfolio of new [and used] [Volkswagen and Audi] motor vehicle leases, which includes leases owned by VW Credit or the Origination Trust and leases that have been sold but are still being serviced by VW Credit. The dollar amounts of the leases outstanding is VW Credit’s book value. Credit losses are an expected cost in the business of extending credit and are considered in VW Credit’s rate-setting process. VW Credit’s strategy is to minimize credit losses while providing financing support for the sale of the motor vehicles. [Insert a description of any material difference between the information presented and the actual pool.]

      For credit loss terminations, VW Credit charges off the account balance of a lease upon the related vehicle’s sale date.

      Gains or losses associated with the sale of off-lease inventory also are recorded upon the vehicle sale date. Collections of end-of-term charges such as excess wear and tear and excess mileage charges are credited when proceeds are received.

      Delinquency, repossession and loss experience may be influenced by a variety of economic, social and geographic conditions and other factors beyond VW Credit’s control. There is no assurance that VW Credit’s delinquency, repossession and loss experience with respect to its leases and the related leased vehicles in the future, or the experience of the Issuer with respect to the Leases and the Leased Vehicles, will be similar to that set forth below.

General

      The Leases allocated to the Transaction SUBI consist of motor vehicle retail closed-end leases for new Volkswagen and Audi motor vehicles. Each of the Leases was originated by a dealer in the ordinary course of such dealer’s business and assigned to the Origination Trust.

      Each Lease is a closed-end lease. Over the term of the Lease (the “lease term”), the lessee is required to make substantially equal monthly payments intended to cover the cost of financing the related Leased Vehicle, scheduled depreciation of the Leased Vehicle and certain sales, use or lease taxes. From each payment billed with respect to a Leased Vehicle, the amounts that represent the financing cost and depreciation of the Leased Vehicle (including any capitalized amounts, such as insurance and warranty premiums) (the “monthly payment”) will be available to the Issuer to make payments in respect of the Notes. At the scheduled end of the lease term (the “maturity date”), the lessee has two options:

      An amount equal to the sales proceeds from sales of Leased Vehicles to the lessees, dealers or at auction and all amounts assessed and collected by the servicer in connection with excessive wear and tear and excess mileage charges upon return of the Leased Vehicles will be available to the Issuer to make payments in respect of the Notes. Because the Leases are closed-end leases, the lessees will not be responsible for any amount by which the Stated Residual Value of the Leased Vehicle exceeds the sales proceeds received for the Leased Vehicle at expiration of the Lease.

Early Termination

      Each Lease provides that the lessee or the lessor may terminate the Lease before the maturity date (an “early termination”) in the circumstances discussed below. A lessee has the right to request an early termination provided that the lessee is not in default under the Lease. The lessee may purchase the Leased Vehicle for an amount equal to (x) the maturity date purchase option amount, plus (y) the monthly payment times the number of payments not yet due with respect to related Lease, minus (z) unearned rent charges calculated under the scheduled actuarial method under the Lease.

      In addition to purchasing the Leased Vehicle, a lessee has the right to cause an early termination by returning the Leased Vehicle to, or upon the order of, the lessor and pay an amount (an “early termination amount”) equal to (i) the turn-in fee, if any, specified in the Lease, plus (ii) any due and unpaid payments under the Lease, plus (iii) the costs of retaking, storing and selling the Leased Vehicle, plus (iv) any fees and taxes related to the early termination, plus (v) the monthly payment times the number of payments not yet due with respect to related Lease, minus (vi) unearned rent charges calculated under the scheduled actuarial method under the Lease, minus (vii) the amount the Leased Vehicle sale price exceeds

Table of Contents

      The “Leased Vehicle sale price” of a Leased Vehicle is determined under the related Lease pursuant to the following methods:

      Each Lease also allows the lessor to cause an early termination of the Lease and repossess the related Leased Vehicle upon a lessee default (each, a “credit termination”). Events of default under a Lease include, but are not limited to (1) the failure by a lessee to make a payment when due, (2) the failure of the lessee to provide truthful information on the credit application, (3) the failure of the lessee to timely or properly perform any obligation under the Lease, or (4) the bankruptcy or other insolvency of the lessee.

      If the lessor terminates a Lease early due to a credit termination, the lessee will owe the early termination amount, including any reasonable attorneys’ fees and court costs, to the extent permitted by law.

      The lessor may also cause an early termination of a Lease if the related Leased Vehicle is damaged, destroyed, stolen, abandoned or confiscated by any governmental authority (a “casualty termination”). If the lessor causes an early termination of the Lease and the lessee has complied with the insurance requirements, paid the deductible and has satisfied all of the obligations under the Lease, the lessor will accept the insurance loss proceeds as satisfaction in full of the lessee’s early termination amount. If the lessor causes an early termination and the lessee does not satisfy the requirements set forth immediately above, the lessee will owe the lessor an amount equal to the difference between the early termination amount and any loss insurance proceeds received by the lessor with respect to the related Leased Vehicle.

Characteristics of the Units

     Securitized Portfolio Information

      The portfolio information presented in this prospectus is stated as of the Cutoff Date and is calculated based on the Securitization Value of the Included Units. As of the Cutoff Date, the Units allocated to the Transaction SUBI had an aggregate Securitization Value of approximately $[               ].

     Calculation of the Securitization Value

      Under the Servicing Agreement, the servicer will calculate a “Securitization Value” for each Included Unit equal to the following:

      The Securitization Value represents the amount of financing that will be raised against each Lease and the related Leased Vehicle. The Securitization Value will, at any given time during the term of the Lease represent the principal amount of Notes that can be amortized by the sum of the monthly payments due in respect of the Leased Vehicle over the remaining lease term, plus the Base Residual of the Leased Vehicle, in each case discounted at an annualized rate equal to the Securitization Rate. The “Securitization Rate” will equal [          ]%.
