Citibank, N.A.:

 

We have examined management’s assertion, included in the accompanyingManagement’s Assertion of Compliance, that the Agency and Trust division of Citibank, N.A. (the “Company”) compliedwith the servicing criteria set forth in Item 1122(d) of the Securities and Exchange Commission’s Regulation AB (the “ServicingCriteria”) for publicly-issued (*i.e.*, transaction-level reporting initially required under the Securities ExchangeAct of 1934, as amended) and certain privately-issued (*i.e.*, for which transaction-level reporting is required pursuantto contractual obligation) commercial mortgage-backed securities issued on or after January 1, 2011 as listed in Appendix A ofthe accompanying Management’s Assertion of Compliance, for which the Company provides the following servicing functions:paying agent, certificate administration and trustee; or certificate administration and paying agent (the “Platform”),except for Servicing Criteria 1122(d)(1)(iii), 1122(d)(4)(i)-1122(d)(4)(ii) and 1122(d)(4)(iv)-1122(d)(4)(xv), which the Companyhas determined are not applicable to the activities it performs with respect to the Platform, as of and for the twelve months endedDecember 31, 2017. The Company has determined that Servicing Criterion 1122(d)(1)(v) is applicable only to the activitiesthe Company performs related to the mathematically accurate aggregation of information received from servicers and the accurateconveyance of such information within reports to investors. Servicing Criterion 1122(d)(4)(iii) is applicable to the activitiesthe Company performs with respect to the Platform only as it relates to the Company’s obligation to report additions, removalsor substitutions on reports to investors in accordance with the transaction agreements. With respect to Servicing Criteria 1122(d)(2)(iii)and 1122(d)(4)(iii), there were no activities performed during the twelve months ended December 31, 2017 with respect to the Platform,because there were no occurrences of events that would require the Company to perform such activities. Management is responsiblefor the Company’s compliance with the Servicing Criteria. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on management’sassertion about the Company’s compliance with the Servicing Criteria based on our examination.

 

Our examination was conducted in accordance with the standards ofthe Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) and in accordance with attestation standards established by the AmericanInstitute of Certified Public Accountants to obtain reasonable assurance and, accordingly, included examining, on a test basis,evidence about the Company’s compliance with the Servicing Criteria and performing such other procedures as we considerednecessary in the circumstances. Our examination included testing selected asset-backed transactions and securities that comprisethe Platform, testing selected servicing activities related to the Platform, and determining whether the Company processed thoseselected transactions and performed those selected activities in compliance with the Servicing Criteria. Furthermore, our procedureswere limited to the selected transactions and servicing activities performed by the Company during the period covered by this report.Our procedures were not designed to determine whether errors may have occurred either prior to or subsequent to our tests thatmay have affected the balances or amounts calculated or reported by the Company during the period covered by this report for theselected transactions or any other transactions. We believe that our examination provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. Ourexamination does not provide a legal determination on the Company’s compliance with the Servicing Criteria.

 

 

In our opinion, management’s assertion that the Company compliedwith the aforementioned Servicing Criteria as of and for the twelve months ended December 31, 2017 is fairly stated, in allmaterial respects.
