Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as special counsel to Ford Credit Auto Lease Two LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Registrant”), and Ford Credit Auto Lease Trust 2017-A, a Delaware statutory trust, as issuer (the “Trust”), in connection with the above-referenced Registration Statement (the “Registration Statement”), and with the issuance by the Trust on the date hereof of its Asset Backed Notes, Class A-1, Class A-2a, Class A-2b, Class A-3 and Class A-4 (collectively, the “Notes”).  The Trust is governed by an Amended and Restated Trust Agreement, dated as of March 1, 2017 (the “Trust Agreement”), among the Registrant, as depositor, The Bank of New York Mellon, as owner trustee (the “Owner Trustee”), and BNY Mellon Trust of Delaware, as Delaware trustee, and the Notes will be issued under and pursuant to the Indenture, dated as of March 1, 2017 (the “Indenture”), between the Trust and U.S. Bank National Association, as indenture trustee (the “Indenture Trustee”).

We generally are familiar with the proceedings taken or required to be taken in connection with the proposed authorization, issuance and sale of the Notes, and have made investigations of law and have examined and relied on the originals or copies certified or otherwise identified to our satisfaction of all the documents and records of the Registrant and the other instruments of the Registrant and other persons, as we have deemed appropriate as a basis for the opinions expressed below, including (a) the Registration Statement, (b) the Trust Agreement, the Indenture (including the form of Notes included as an exhibit to the Indenture), the Underwriting Agreement, dated March 21, 2017, among the Depositor, Ford Motor Credit Company LLC and the representatives of the several underwriters named therein, and the other transaction documents and forms of transaction documents attached as exhibits to the Registration Statement (collectively, the “Agreements”) and (c) the prospectus, dated March 21, 2017 (the “Prospectus”), relating to the offering of the Notes.
