**EXPLANATORY NOTES**

National Cooperative Bank, N.A. (f/k/aNCB, FSB), the NCB master servicer and co-op special servicer, is also asponsor. Therefore, the Depositor included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K aservicer compliance statement for National Cooperative Bank, N.A. (f/k/a NCB,FSB) pursuant to Item 1123.  Because National Cooperative Bank, N.A.(f/k/a NCB, FSB) is servicing less than 5% of the pool assets, an assessment ofcompliance with applicable servicing criteria and an accountants’ attestationreport pursuant to Item 1122 of Regulation AB are not required by RegulationAB. As the attestation made in the servicer compliance statement required byItem 1123 relates to a review of the servicing activities of NationalCooperative Bank, N.A. (f/k/a NCB, FSB) under the applicable servicing agreement,and that review was conducted in conjunction with the servicer’s preparation ofits assessment of compliance with applicable servicing criteria, thatassessment of compliance with applicable servicing criteria and theaccompanying accountants’ attestation report are included in this Annual Reporton Form 10-K for the sake of completeness.

U.S. Bank National Associationacts as trustee of the mortgage loans serviced under the Pooling and ServicingAgreement.  Pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the trusteeis required to provide an assessment of compliance with applicable servicingcriteria solely with respect to Item 1122(d)(2)(iii) of Regulation AB(regarding advances of funds or guarantees regarding collections, cash flows ordistributions, and any interest or other fees charged for such advances, aremade, reviewed and approved as specified in the transaction agreements).However, during the reporting period, the trustee did not perform any servicingfunction with respect to the servicing criteria specified in Item1122(d)(2)(iii) of Regulation AB.  The master servicer or the specialservicer, to the extent required, performed the servicing function identifiedwith respect to Item 1122(d)(2)(iii) of Regulation AB, and each such party includedItem 1122(d)(2)(iii) of Regulation AB in the assessment of compliance withapplicable servicing criteria and accountant’s attestation report for thesubject transaction.  As a result, this Annual Report on Form 10-K doesnot include an assessment of compliance with applicable servicing criteria ofthe trustee. One or more other servicers of the mortgage loans serviced underthe Pooling and Servicing Agreement have delivered one or more assessments ofcompliance with respect to Item 1122(d)(2)(iii) of Regulation AB.

This Annual Report on Form 10-Kincludes assessments of compliance with applicable servicing criteria andaccountants’ attestation reports from CoreLogic Commercial Real EstateServices, Inc. and National Tax Search, LLC. These entities were engaged by thegeneral master servicer under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement (except withrespect to those mortgage loans for which Prudential Asset Resources, Inc. isthe primary servicer) to remit tax payments received from the escrow accountsof borrowers to local taxing authorities, to report tax amounts due, to verifytax parcel information, and to verify non-escrow tax payments. These servicingfunctions are included within the servicing criteria set forth in Items1122(d)(4)(xi) and 1122(d)(4)(xii) of Regulation AB. Therefore, under theprinciples-based definition of “servicer” set forth in Item 1101(j) ofRegulation AB that looks to the functions that an entity performs, thesevendors are “servicers” for the purposes of Item 1122 of Regulation AB. SeeCompliance and Disclosure Interpretations, Section 301.01 (Item 1101(j)).

The registrant knows of nomaterial pending legal proceeding involving the trust or any party related tothe trust, other than routine litigation incidental to the duties of thoserespective parties,andthe following, with respect to Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, ascertificate administrator and as custodian.

 

Beginning on June 18, 2014, agroup of institutional investors filed civil complaints in the Supreme Court ofthe State of New York, New York County, and later the U.S. District Court forthe Southern District of New York, against 

Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., (“WellsFargo Bank”) in its capacity as trustee for certain residential mortgage backedsecurities (“RMBS”) trusts. The complaints against Wells Fargo Bank allegedthat the trustee caused losses to investors and asserted causes of action basedupon, among other things, the trustee's alleged failure to: (i) notify andenforce repurchase obligations of mortgage loan sellers for purported breachesof representations and warranties, (ii) notify investors of alleged events ofdefault, and (iii) abide by appropriate standards of care following allegedevents of default. Relief sought included money damages in an unspecifiedamount, reimbursement of expenses, and equitable relief. In November 2018,Wells Fargo Bank reached an agreement, in which it denied any wrongdoing, toresolve such claims on a classwide basis for the 271 RMBS trusts at issue. OnMay 6, 2019, the court entered an order approving the settlement agreement.Separate lawsuits against Wells Fargo Bank making similar allegations filed bycertain other institutional investors concerning several RMBS trusts in NewYork federal and state court are not covered by the agreement. With respect tosuch litigations, Wells Fargo Bank believes plaintiffs' claims are withoutmerit and intends to contest the claims vigorously, but there can be noassurances as to the outcome of the litigations or the possible impact of thelitigations on Wells Fargo Bank or the RMBS trusts.
