The other *pari passu* portion ofthe loan combination was securitized in the Wells Fargo Commercial MortgageTrust 2016-C32 transaction, Commission File Number 333-206677-02 (the “WFCMT2016-C32 Transaction”). This loan combination, including the 10 SouthLaSalle Street Mortgage Loan, is being serviced and administered pursuant tothe pooling and servicing agreement for the WFCMT 2016-C32 Transaction, whichis incorporated by reference as Exhibit 4.2 to this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

The master servicer of a poolingand servicing agreement or trust and servicing agreement also functions as theprimary servicer of the related mortgage loans serviced and administeredpursuant to such agreement unless a separate primary servicer is identifiedherein.  If this report does not identify a separate primary servicer, theservicer compliance statement provided by the master servicer under any suchagreement also encompasses its responsibilities as primary servicer of therelated mortgage loan or mortgage loans.

Wells Fargo Bank, NationalAssociation is the master servicer and certificate administrator of themortgage loans serviced under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and theprimary servicer of the 10 South LaSalle Street Mortgage Loan. As a result,Wells Fargo Bank, National Association is a “servicer” as defined in Item1108(a)(2)(iii) of Regulation AB, in the capacities described above, because itis servicing mortgage loans that constituted 10% or more of the assets of theissuing entity as of its cut-off date. The assessments of compliance withapplicable servicing criteria, accountants’ attestation reports and servicercompliance statements delivered by Wells Fargo Bank, National Association inthe capacities described above are listed in the Exhibit Index.

Wells Fargo Bank, NationalAssociation is the custodian of the mortgage loans serviced under the Poolingand Servicing Agreement and the 10 South LaSalle Street Mortgage Loan.  Asa result, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association is a servicing functionparticipant in the capacities described above, because it is servicing mortgageloans that constituted 5% or more of the assets of the issuing entity as of itscut-off date. The assessments of compliance with applicable servicing criteria andaccountants’ attestation reports delivered by Wells Fargo Bank, NationalAssociation in the capacities described above are listed in the Exhibit Index.

Rialto Capital Advisors, LLC isthe special servicer of the mortgage loans serviced under the Pooling andServicing Agreement and the 10 South LaSalle Street Mortgage Loan. As a result,Rialto Capital Advisors, LLC is a “servicer” as defined in Item 1108(a)(2)(iii)of Regulation AB, in the capacities described above, because it is servicingmortgage loans that constituted 10% or more of the assets of the issuing entityas of its cut-off date. The assessments of compliance with applicable servicingcriteria, accountants’ attestation reports and servicer compliance statementsdelivered by Rialto Capital Advisors, LLC in the capacities described above arelisted in the Exhibit Index.

Wilmington Trust, NationalAssociation acts as trustee of  the mortgage loans serviced under thePooling and Servicing Agreement and the 10 South LaSalle Street MortgageLoan.  Pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the pooling andservicing agreement for the WFCMT 2016-C32 Transaction, the trustee is requiredto provide an assessment of compliance with applicable servicing criteriasolely with respect to Item 1122(d)(2)(iii) of Regulation AB (regardingadvances 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 servicing functionwith respect to the servicing criteria specified in Item 1122(d)(2)(iii) ofRegulation AB.  The master servicer or the special servicer, to the extentrequired, performed the servicing function identified with respect to Item1122(d)(2)(iii) of Regulation AB, and each such party included Item1122(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 servicedunder the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the 10 South LaSalle StreetMortgage Loan have delivered one or more assessments of compliance with respectto 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 Solutions, LLC.  Thisentity was engaged by the master servicer under the Pooling and ServicingAgreement and the primary servicer of the 10 South LaSalle Street Mortgage Loanto remit tax payments received from the escrow accounts of borrowers to localtaxing authorities, to report tax amounts due, to verify tax parcelinformation, and to verify non-escrow tax payments. These servicing functionsare included within the servicing criteria set forth in Items 1122(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, this vendor isa “servicer” for the purposes of Item 1122 of Regulation AB.  *See*Compliance and Disclosure Interpretations, Section 301.01 (Item 1101(j)).

This AnnualReport on Form 10-K includes an assessment of compliance with applicable servicingcriteria, accountants’ attestation report and servicer compliance statementfrom Computershare Trust Company, National Association (“CTCNA”).

WellsFargo engaged CTCNA in connection with the sale of Wells Fargo’s corporatetrust services business to CTCNA and its affiliates.

SeeCompliance and Disclosure Interpretations, Section 301.01 (Item 1101(j)).

The assessment of compliance withapplicable servicing criteria, accountants’ attestation report and servicercompliance statement of the certificate administrator of the 10 South LaSalleStreet Mortgage Loan are omitted from this Annual Report on Form 10-K as thecertificate administrator pursuant to the related pooling and servicingagreement or trust and servicing agreement does not perform any activities thataddress servicing criteria with respect to the issuing entity and because it isnot a “servicer” that meets the criteria in Item 1108(a)(2)(i) through (iii) ofRegulation AB.

Complaints raising similarallegations have been filed by Commerzbank AG in the Southern District of NewYork and by IKB International and IKB Deutsche Industriebank in New York statecourt. In each case, the plaintiffs allege that Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., astrustee, caused losses to investors, and plaintiffs assert causes of action basedupon, among other things, the trustee’s alleged failure to notify and enforcerepurchase obligations of mortgage loan sellers for purported breaches ofrepresentations and warranties, notify investors of alleged events of default,and abide by appropriate standards of care following alleged events of default.In July 2022, the district court dismissed Phoenix Light’s claims and certainof the claims asserted by Commerzbank AG, and subsequently entered judgment ineach case in favor of Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. In August 2022, Phoenix Light andCommerzbank AG appealed the district court’s decision to the United StatesCourt of Appeals for the Second Circuit. The Company previously settled twoclass actions filed by institutional investors and an action filed by theNational Credit Union Administration with similar allegations. In addition,Park Royal I LLC and Park Royal II LLC have filed substantially similarlawsuits in New York state court alleging Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., as trustee,failed to take appropriate actions upon learning of defective mortgage loandocumentation.

The April 18, 2022distribution (the ”April Distribution’’), due to holders of certificates of theWells Fargo Commercial Mortgage Securities, Inc., Commercial MortgagePass-Through Certificates, Series 2016-NXS5, was made one business day late onApril 19, 2022 by Computershare Trust Company, N.A. The inadvertent delay inthe required distribution, consisting of approximately $4.03 million, wascaused by an administrative error relating to the calculation of the paymentdate in an internal system due to Good Friday.

The impact of thiserror was limited to the April Distribution.
