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 certificate administrator of the mortgage loans servicedunder the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the primary servicer of the LaGran Plaza Mortgage Loan and the Walgreens Portfolio Mortgage Loan. As aresult, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association is a “servicer” as defined inItem 1108(a)(2)(iii) of Regulation AB, in the capacities described above,because it is servicing mortgage loans that constituted 10% or more of theassets of the issuing entity as of its cut-off date. The assessments ofcompliance with applicable servicing criteria, accountants’ attestation reportsand servicer compliance statements delivered by Wells Fargo Bank, NationalAssociation in the capacities described above are listed in the Exhibit Index.

Wells Fargo Bank, National Association is the custodian ofthe mortgage loans serviced under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the LaGran Plaza Mortgage Loan and the Walgreens Portfolio Mortgage Loan.  As aresult, 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.

Berkeley Point Capital LLC d/b/aNewmark is an affiliate of Cantor Commercial Real Estate Lending L.P., one ofthe sponsors.  Therefore, the Depositor included in this Annual Report onForm 10-K a servicer compliance statement for Berkeley Point Capital LLC d/b/aNewmark pursuant to Item 1123.  Because Berkeley Point Capital LLC d/b/aNewmark 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 requiredby Item 1123 relates to a review of the servicing activities of Berkeley PointCapital LLC d/b/a Newmark under the applicable servicing agreement, and thatreview was conducted in conjunction with the servicer’s preparation of itsassessment of compliance with applicable servicing criteria, that assessment ofcompliance with applicable servicing criteria and the accompanying accountants’attestation report are included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K for the sakeof completeness.

Wilmington Trust, NationalAssociation acts as trustee of  the mortgage loans serviced under thePooling and Servicing Agreement, the Walgreens Portfolio Mortgage Loan and theLa Gran Plaza Mortgage Loan.  Pursuant to the Pooling and ServicingAgreement, the pooling and servicing agreement for the WFCMT 2015-LC20Transaction and the pooling and servicing agreement for the COMM 2015-CCRE24Transaction, the trustee is required to provide an assessment of compliancewith applicable servicing criteria solely with respect to Item 1122(d)(2)(iii)of Regulation AB (regarding advances of funds or guarantees regardingcollections, cash flows or distributions, and any interest or other feescharged for such advances, are made, reviewed and approved as specified in thetransaction agreements). However, during the reporting period, the trustee didnot perform any servicing function with respect to the servicing criteria specifiedin Item 1122(d)(2)(iii) of Regulation AB.  The master servicer or thespecial servicer, to the extent required, performed the servicing functionidentified with respect to Item 1122(d)(2)(iii) of Regulation AB, and each suchparty included Item 1122(d)(2)(iii) of Regulation AB in the assessment ofcompliance with applicable servicing criteria and accountant’s attestationreport for the subject transaction.  As a result, this Annual Report onForm 10-K does not include an assessment of compliance with applicableservicing criteria of the trustee. One or more other servicers of  themortgage loans serviced under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, theWalgreens Portfolio Mortgage Loan and the La Gran Plaza Mortgage Loan havedelivered one or more assessments of compliance with respect to Item1122(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 primary servicer of the Walgreens Portfolio MortgageLoan and the La Gran Plaza Mortgage Loan to remit tax payments received fromthe escrow accounts of borrowers to local taxing authorities, to report taxamounts due, to verify tax parcel information, and to verify non-escrow taxpayments. These servicing functions are included within the servicing criteriaset forth in Items 1122(d)(4)(xi) and 1122(d)(4)(xii) of Regulation AB. Therefore, under the principles-based definition of “servicer” set forth inItem 1101(j) of Regulation AB that looks to the functions that an entityperforms, this vendor is a “servicer” for the purposes of Item 1122 ofRegulation AB.  *See* Compliance and Disclosure Interpretations,Section 301.01 (Item 1101(j)).

This Annual Report on Form 10-Kincludes an assessment of compliance with applicable servicing criteria,accountants’ attestation report and servicer compliance statement fromComputershare 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.  Further, under theprinciples-based definition of “servicer” set forth in Item 1101(j) of RegulationAB that looks to the functions that an entity performs, this party is a“servicer” for the purposes of Item 1123 of Regulation AB.  See Complianceand Disclosure Interpretations, Section 301.01 (Item 1101(j)).

Theassessments of compliance with applicable servicing criteria, accountants’attestation reports and servicer compliance statements of the certificateadministrator of the Walgreens Portfolio Mortgage Loan and the La Gran PlazaMortgage 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 theyare each not a “servicer” that meets the criteria in Item 1108(a)(2)(i) through(iii) of Regulation AB.

In December 2014, Phoenix LightSF Limited and certain related entities and the National Credit UnionAdministration (NCUA) filed complaints in the United States District Court forthe Southern District of New York against Wells Fargo Bank, alleging claimsagainst Wells Fargo Bank in its capacity as trustee for a number of residentialmortgage-backed securities trusts. Complaints raising similar allegations havebeen filed by Commerzbank AG in the Southern District of New York and by IKBInternational and IKB Deutsche Industriebank in New York state court. In eachcase, the plaintiffs allege that Wells Fargo Bank, as trustee, caused losses toinvestors, and plaintiffs assert causes of action based upon, among otherthings, the trustee’s alleged failure to notify and enforce repurchaseobligations of mortgage loan sellers for purported breaches of representationsand warranties, notify investors of alleged events of default, and abide byappropriate standards of care following alleged events of default. Wells FargoBank previously settled two class action lawsuits with similar allegations thatwere filed in November 2014 and December 2016 by institutional investors in theSouthern District of New York and New York state court, respectively. Inaddition, Park Royal I LLC and Park Royal II LLC have filed complaints in NewYork state court alleging Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., as trustee, failed to takeappropriate actions upon learning of defective mortgage loan documentation. InMarch 2021, the Company entered into an agreement to resolve the case filed bythe NCUA.

 

In addition to the foregoingcases, in August 2014 and August 2015 Nomura Credit & Capital Inc. (“Nomura”)and Natixis Real Estate Holdings, LLC (“Natixis”) filed a total of seventhird-party complaints against Wells Fargo Bank in New York state court. In theunderlying first-party actions, Nomura and Natixis have been sued for allegedbreaches of representations and warranties made in connection with residentialmortgage-backed securities sponsored by them. In the third-party actions,Nomura and Natixis allege that Wells Fargo Bank, as master servicer, primaryservicer or securities administrator, failed to notify Nomura and Natixis oftheir own breaches, failed to properly oversee the primary servicers, andfailed to adhere to accepted servicing practices. Natixis additionally allegesthat Wells Fargo Bank failed to perform default oversight duties. Wells FargoBank has asserted counterclaims alleging that Nomura and Natixis failed toprovide Wells Fargo Bank notice of their representation and warranty breaches.

 

With respect to each of the foregoing litigations, WellsFargo Bank believes plaintiffs' claims are without merit and intends to contestthe claims vigorously, but there can be no assurances as to the outcome of thelitigations or the possible impact of the litigations on Wells Fargo Bank orthe related RMBS trusts.

From time to time, CWCapital Asset Management LLC, a Delawarelimited liability company (“CWCAM”), is a party to lawsuits and otherlegal proceedings as part of its duties as a special servicer (e.g.,enforcement of loan obligations) and/or arising in the ordinary course ofbusiness.  Other than as set forth in the following paragraphs, there arecurrently no legal proceedings pending, and no legal proceedings known to becontemplated by governmental authorities, against CWCAM or of which any of itsproperty is the subject, that are material to the certificateholders.

On December 17, 2015, U.S. Bank National Association, thetrustee under five pooling and servicing agreements for (i) Wachovia BankCommercial Mortgage Trust 2007-C30, (ii) COBALT CMBS Commercial Trust 2007-C2,(iii) Wachovia Bank Commercial Mortgage Trust 2007-C31, (iv) ML-CFC CommercialMortgage Trust 2007-5 and (v) ML-CFC Commercial Mortgage Trust 2007-6 commenceda proceeding with the Second Judicial District Court of Ramsey County,Minnesota (the “State Court”) for a declaratory judgment as to theproper allocation of certain proceeds (“Disputed Proceeds”) received byCWCAM in connection with the sale of the Peter Cooper Village and StuyvesantTown property in New York, New York securing loans held by those trusts. CWCAM was the special servicer of such property.  The petition requeststhe State Court to instruct the trustee, the trust beneficiaries, and any otherinterested parties as to the amount of the Disputed Proceeds, if any, thatconstitute penalty interest and/or the amount of the Disputed Proceeds, if any,that constitute gain-on-sale proceeds, with respect to each trust.  OnFebruary 24, 2016, CWCAM made a limited appearance with the State Court to filea motion to dismiss this proceeding based on lack of jurisdiction, mootness,standing and forum non conveniens.  On July 19, 2016, the State Courtdenied CWCAM’s motion to dismiss.  On July 22, 2016, the action wasremoved to federal court in Minnesota (“Federal Court”).  OnOctober 21, 2016, the Federal Court held a hearing on the motion to transferthe action to the United States District Court for the Southern District of NewYork (“SDNY Court”), a motion to remand to state court and a motion tohear CWCAM’s request for reconsideration of the motion to dismiss.  OnMarch 14, 2017, the Federal Court reserved the determination on the motion tohear CWCAM’s request for reconsideration of the motion to dismiss, denied themotion to remand the matter to state court and granted the motion to transferthe proceeding to the SDNY Court.  Cross motions for judgment on thepleadings were filed but the SDNY Court was unable to decide the case based onthe pleadings and the SDNY Court ordered discovery.  All fact discoverywas completed in December, 2018 and expert discovery was completed on March 15,2019.  The parties submitted cross motions for summary judgment, and onMarch 19, 2020, the SDNY Court entered an opinion andorder in which it granted summary judgment in CWCAM’s favor and held that CWCAMwas entitled to the entire amount of penalty interest and that CWCAM’s determinationof Yield Maintenance was correct.  In the 127-page opinion, the SDNY Courtfound for CWCAM on every issue presented by the trustee’s petition, namely,that the funds in dispute constitute penalty interest and yield maintenance,not gain-on-sale proceeds, and that the amount of penalty interest and yieldmaintenance was correctly calculated. An appeal of the SDNY Court’s decisionwas taken on April 29, 2020.  Oral argument on the appeal occurred on June21, 2021. The parties await the decision of the appeals court.  

On December 1, 2017, a complaint against CWCAM and others wasfiled in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New Yorkstyled as CWCapital Cobalt Vr Ltd. v. CWCapital Investments LLC, et al., No.17-cv-9463 (the “Original Complaint”). The gravamen of theOriginal  Complaint alleged breaches of a contract and fiduciary duties byCWCAM’s affiliate, CWCapital Investments LLC in its capacity as collateralmanager for the collateralized debt obligation transaction involving CWCapitalCobalt Vr, Ltd. In total, there are 14 counts pled in the Original Complaint.Of those 14, 5 claims were asserted against CWCAM for aiding and abettingbreach of fiduciary duty, conversion and unjust enrichment. On May 23, 2018,the Original Complaint was dismissed for lack of subject matterjurisdiction.   On June 28, 2018, CWCapital Cobalt Vr Ltd. filed asubstantially similar complaint in the Supreme Court of the State of New York,County of New York styled as CWCapital Cobalt Vr Ltd. v. CWCapital InvestmentsLLC, et al., Index No. 653277/2018 (the “New Complaint”).  Thegravamen of the New Complaint is the same as the previous complaint filed inthe United State District Court for the Southern District of New York.  Intotal there are 16 counts pled in the New Complaint. Of those 16 counts, 5claims were asserted against CWCAM for aiding and abetting breach of fiduciaryduty, conversion and unjust enrichment, 1 count seeks a declaratory judgementthat the plaintiff has the right to enforce the contracts in question and 1count seeks an injunction requiring the defendants to recognize the plaintiffas the directing holder for the trusts in question. On January 11, 2019, theplaintiff dismissed with prejudice the declaratory judgment and injunctioncounts.  The New Complaint and related summons was not served on thedefendants until July 13, 2018 and July 16, 2018.  The plaintiff’s motionfor a preliminary injunction was denied by the court on July 31, 2018.  OnAugust 3, 2018, the defendants, including CWCAM, filed a motion to dismiss theNew Complaint in its entirety. On August 20, 2019, the court entered an ordergranting defendants’ motion almost in its entirety, dismissing 11 of the 16counts and partially dismissing 2 additional counts.  Of the remainingcounts, 2 are asserted against CWCAM for aiding and abetting breach offiduciary duty and unjust enrichment.  On September 19, 2019, CWCapitalCobalt Vr Ltd. filed a notice of appeal relating to the August 20, 2019dismissal order and on September 26, 2019, filed an amended complaint againstCWCI and CWCAM attempting to address deficiencies relating to certain of theclaims dismissed by the August, 20, 2019 order.  CWCI and CWCAM filed itsMotion to Dismiss the amended complaint on October 28, 2019.  The courtheard argument on the Motion to Dismiss the amended complaint on January 22,2020 and on October 23, 2020, the court granted the motion dismissing theamended claims.  On November 30, 2020, CWCapital Cobalt Vr Ltd filed anotice of appeal relating to the October 23, 2020 dismissal order.  OnApril 27, 2021, the First Department affirmed the dismissal as to claimsagainst CWCAM that were part of the August 20, 2019 dismissal, but reversed thedismissal of two counts for breach of the Collateral Management Agreementagainst CWCI.  CWCI has sought leave to file an appeal of thedecision.  Both requests for leave were denied by the FirstDepartment.
