   EXPLANATORY NOTES


   Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Master Servicer of the subject
   transaction did not provide an assessment of compliance with respect to
   Item 1122(d)(3)(iii).  At the time the pooling and servicing agreement was
   entered into, it was intended that either the master servicer or the
   certificate administrator would perform this servicing function.  In fact,
   Item 1122(d)(3)(iii) of Regulation AB was performed by the certificate
   administrator, and is included in the assessment of compliance with
   applicable servicing criteria and accountants' attestation report of the
   certificate administrator for the subject transaction.

   U. S. Bank National Association acts as Trustee of the issuing entity.
   Pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Trustee is required
   to provide an assessment of compliance with applicable servicing criteria
   solely with respect to Item 1122(d)(2)(iii) of Regulation AB (regarding
   advances of funds or guarantees regarding collections, cash flows or
   distributions, and any interest or other fees charged for such advances,
   are made, reviewed and approved as specified in the transaction
   agreements).  However, the Trustee is not required to deliver such
   assessment of compliance with applicable servicing criteria with respect
   to any reporting period during which there was no servicing criteria
   applicable to the Trustee, as was the case during the reporting period
   covered by this Annual Report on Form 10-K.  As a result, this Annual
   Report on Form 10-K does not include an assessment of compliance with
   applicable servicing criteria of the Trustee.  The assessment of
   compliance with applicable servicing criteria of the Master Servicer
   covers Item 1122(d)(2)(iii) of Regulation AB.

   This Annual Report on Form 10-K includes assessments of compliance with
   applicable servicing criteria and accountant's  attestation reports from
   CoreLogic Commercial Real Estate Services, Inc. and National Tax Search,
   LLC.  These entities were engaged by the master servicer to remit tax
   payments received from the escrow accounts of borrowers to local taxing
   authorities, to report tax amounts due, to verify tax parcel
   information, and to verify non-escrow tax payments.  These services are
   included within the servicing criteria set forth in Items 1122(d)(4)(xi)
   and 1122(d)(4)(xii).  Therefore, under the principles-based definition
   of "servicer" set forth in Item 1101(j), these vendors are "servicers"
   for the purposes of Item 1122.  See Manual of Publicly Available
   Telephone Interpretations, Section 3, Item 1101(j).

   Item 1122 of Regulation AB, Compliance with Applicable Servicing Criteria.

   The reports on assessments of compliance with the servicing criteria for
   asset-backed securities and related attestation reports on such assessments
   of compliance are attached hereto under Item 15 to this Annual Report on
   Form 10-K.  Attached as Schedule II to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement
   incorporated by reference as Exhibit 4 to this Annual Report on Form 10-K
   is a chart identifying the entities participating in a servicing function
   for the transaction responsible for each applicable servicing criteria set
   forth in Item 1122(d).

   The assessment of compliance with applicable servicing criteria for the
   twelve months ended December 31, 2013, furnished pursuant to Item 1122 of
   Regulation AB by National Tax Search, LLC (the "2013 NTS Assessment") for
   its commercial real estate mortgage loans platform, discloses that material
   instances of noncompliance occurred with respect to the servicing criterion
   described in Item 1122(d)(2)(vii) of Regulation AB. The 2013 NTS Assessment
   is attached to this Form 10-K as Exhibit 33.6. The material instances of
   noncompliance disclosed in the 2013 NTS Assessment are as follows:


   Material Instances of Noncompliance by National Tax Search, LLC

      1122(d)(2)(vii): Reconciliations are prepared on a monthly basis for all
      asset-backed securities related to bank accounts, including custodial
      accounts and related clearing accounts. These reconciliations (B) Are
      prepared within 30 calendar days after the bank statement cutoff date,
      or such other number of days Specificied (sic) in the transaction
      agreement and (D) Contain explanations for reconciling items. These
      reconciling items are resolved within 90 calendar days of their original
      identification, or such other number of days specificied (sic) in
      transaction agreements.

               Noncompliance
               During the reporting period, certain reconciliations were not
               completed within 30 calendar days after the bank statement
               cutoff date. Certain reconciling items lacked proper
               explanations and were not resolved within 90 day (sic) calendar
               days of their original identification.

               Remediation
               Management corrected the timeliness of reconciliations within
               the Period and Plante Moran auditors have reviewed, under an
               agreed-upon procedures engagement, the compliance with the
               servicing criteria of section 1122(d)(2)(vii), attributes
               B & D, as defined above, as of January 31, 2014, noting no
               matters of concern.

      In the first quarter of 2014 Management will also complete installation
      of a Treasury Workstation system, which allows for the automation of
      daily reconciliation allowing for review and research throughout the
      month instead of the days after a bank statement cutoff date. This
      daily reconciliation will be accompanied by proper explanation of all
      reconciling items.  Management will review any items that require
      resolution and reporting will provide aging of items at 30, 45 and 60
      day levels to prevent exceeding the 90 calendar day requirement.

   The assessment of compliance with applicable servicing criteria furnished
   pursuant to Item 1122 of Regulation AB by  CWCapital Asset Management LLC
   ("CWAM") is attached to this Annual Report on Form 10-K as Exhibit 33.2.
   The material instances of noncompliance disclosed in the CWAM assessment
   are as follows:


   Material Instance of Noncompliance by CWAM

      CWAM's assessment of compliance with the Applicable Servicing Criteria set
      forth by the Securities and Exchange Commission in paragraph (d) of Item
      1122 of Regulation AB as of December 31, 2013 and for the Reporting
      Period, disclosed that a material instance of noncompliance occurred with
      respect to the servicing criterion set forth in Item 1122(d)(4)(vii), as
      follows:

               With respect to servicing criterion 1122(d)(4)(vii), certain loss
               mitigation or recovery actions (e.g., forbearance plans,
               modifications and deeds in lieu of foreclosure, foreclosures
               and repossessions, as applicable) were not initiated, conducted
               mitigation or recovery actions (e.g., forbearance plans,
               and concluded in accordance with the timeframes or other
               mitigation or recovery actions (e.g., forbearance plans,
               requirements established by the transaction agreements.


   Management's Discussion on Material Instance of Noncompliance by CWAM

      1122(d)(4)(vii): Loss mitigation or recovery actions (e.g., forbearance
      plans, modifications and deeds in lieu of foreclosure, foreclosures and
      repossessions, as applicable) are initiated, conducted and concluded in
      accordance with the time frames or other requirements established by the
      transaction agreements.

               Noncompliance:
               CWAM has identified a material instance of non-compliance as of
               December 31, 2013 and for the Reporting Period as a result of
               misappropriations of funds from certain securitization
               transactions included in the Platform by a single CWAM employee
               (the "Misappropriations"). The Misappropriations started in 2012
               and were detected and ceased in September 2013, and included an
               aggregate amount of approximately $6,000,000. The
               Misappropriations were limited to certain securitization
               transactions in the Platform.

               Remediation:
               Promptly upon discovery of the Misappropriations in September
               2013, CWAM terminated the offending employee and filed a civil
               action to recover the misappropriated funds . As of December 31,
               2013, all of the affected securitization transactions in the
               Platform have been fully reimbursed. CWAM has also promptly
               notified rating agencies and criminal authorities of the
               Misappropriations and the former employee was arrested on
               October 2, 2013. Adjustments have been made to CWAM's policies
               and procedures to minimize the risk of future misappropriation
               or errors.

      CWAM has advised counsel to the registrant that the reported instance of
      material instance of noncompliance did not affect this issuing entity.
