Management’sassertion identifies the individual asset-backed transactions and securities defined by management as constituting the Platform.AEGON’s management is responsible for its assertion and for the Company’s compliance with the applicable servicingcriteria. Our responsibility is to express and opinion on management’s assertion about the Company’s compliance withthe applicable servicing criteria based on our examination.

 

Our examination was conducted in accordance with the standards of the PublicCompany Accounting Oversight Board (United States) and in accordance with attestation standard established by the American Instituteof Certified Public Accountants. Those standards require that we plan and perform the examination to obtain reasonable assuranceabout whether management’s assertion about compliance with the applicable servicing criteria is fairly stated, in all materialrespects, and, accordingly, included examining, on a test basis, evidence about the Company’s compliance with the applicableservicing criteria and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. Our examination includedtesting of selected asset-backed transactions and securities that comprise the Platform, testing of selected servicing activitiesrelated to the Platform, and determine whether the Company processed those selected transactions and performed those selected activitiesin compliance with applicable servicing criteria. Our procedures were limited to the selected transactions and servicing activitiesperformed by the Company during the period covered by this report. Our procedures were not designed to detect noncompliance arisingfrom errors that may have occurred prior to or subsequent to our tests that may have affected the balances or amounts calculatedor reported by the Company during the period covered by this report. We believe that our examination provides, and that the evidencewe obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide, a reasonable basis for our opinion. Our examination does not provide a legaldetermination on the Company’s compliance with the servicing criteria.

 

In our opinion, management’s assertion that AEGON complied with theaforementioned applicable servicing criteria as of and for the year ended December 31, 2017 for the Platform is fairly stated,in all material respects.
