Schedule B

On October 25, 2013, Wells Fargo made a distribution (the October Distribution) to holders of the certificates of the Sequoia
Mortgage Trust 2012-6. The October Distribution contained a payment error that resulted in an underpayment to certain classes of certificates totaling approximately $1,684,000. The payment error resulted from the inadvertent failure of Wells Fargo
to process a mid-month servicing file containing additional principal prepayment information. The impact of this payment error was limited to the October Distribution.

On November 20, 2013, the October Distribution was revised to correct the payment error. A Form 10-D/A, Amendment No. 1, was filed
on November 27, 2013 attaching the revised Distribution Date Statement as Exhibit 99.1 to the Form 10-D/A. To prevent further similar payment errors, Wells Fargo revised its process for the Sequoia Mortgage Trust 2012-6 to flag the mid-month
report.
