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 Northridge Fashion Center Mortgage Loan and the TownCenter at Cobb Mortgage Loan. As a result, Wells Fargo Bank, NationalAssociation is a “servicer” as defined in Item 1108(a)(2)(iii) of RegulationAB, in the capacities described above, because it is servicing mortgage loansthat constituted 10% or more of the assets of the issuing entity as of itscut-off date.  The assessments of compliance with applicable servicingcriteria, accountants’ attestation reports and servicer compliance statementsdelivered by Wells Fargo Bank, National Association in the capacities describedabove are listed in the Exhibit Index.

However, during the reporting period, the trustee did notperform 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, theNorthridge Fashion Center Mortgage Loan and the Town Center at Cobb MortgageLoan have delivered one or more assessments of compliance with respect to Item1122(d)(2)(iii) of Regulation AB.

**Item 1117 of Regulation AB, Legal Proceedings.**

The registrant knows of no material pending legal proceedinginvolving the trust or any party related to the trust, other than routinelitigation incidental to the duties of those respective parties, and thefollowing, with respect to Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as Trustee,and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Certificate Administrator andCustodian.

Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas (“DBTCA”) andDeutsche Bank National Trust Company (“DBNTC”) have been sued byinvestors in civil litigation concerning their roles as trustees of certainresidential mortgage-backed securities (“RMBS”) trusts. 

On June 18, 2014, a group of investors, including fundsmanaged by Blackrock Advisors, LLC, PIMCO-Advisors, L.P., and others, filed anaction against DBNTC and DBTCA in New York State Supreme Court alleging thatDBNTC and DBTCA failed to perform purported duties, as trustees for 544private-label RMBS trusts, to enforce breaches of representations andwarranties as to mortgage loans held by the trusts and to enforce breaches byservicers of their mortgage loan servicing obligations for the trusts. During the course of the litigation, plaintiffs dismissed the case from New YorkState Supreme Court and refiled two separate cases, one in the U.S. DistrictCourt for the Southern District of New York (the “BlackRock SDNY Case”)and the other in the Superior Court of California, Orange County (the “BlackRockCalifornia Case”).  Pursuant to a settlement among the parties, theBlackRock SDNY Case was dismissed on December 6, 2018, and the BlackRockCalifornia Case was dismissed on January 11, 2019.

On September 27, 2017, DBTCA was added as a defendant to acase brought by certain special purpose entities including Phoenix Light SFLimited in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York, inwhich the plaintiffs previously alleged incorrectly that DBNTC served astrustee for all forty-three of the trusts at issue.  On September 27,2017, plaintiffs filed a third amended complaint that names DBTCA as adefendant in addition to DBNTC.  DBTCA serves as trustee for one of theforty-three trusts at issue.  DBNTC serves as trustee for the otherforty-two trusts at issue.  Plaintiffs’ third amended complaint bringsclaims for violation of the U.S. Trust Indenture Act of 1939 (“TIA”);breach of contract; breach of fiduciary duty; negligence and gross negligence;violation of New York’s Streit Act; and breach of the covenant of goodfaith.  However, in the third amended complaint, plaintiffs acknowledgethat, before DBTCA was added to the case, the court dismissed plaintiffs’ TIAAct claims, negligence and gross negligence claims, Streit Act claims, claimsfor breach of the covenant of good faith, and certain theories of plaintiffs’breach of contract claims, and plaintiffs only include these claims to preserveany rights on appeal.  Plaintiffs allege damages of “hundreds of millionsof dollars.”  On November 13, 2017, DBNTC and DBTCA filed an answer to thethird amended complaint.  On December 7, 2018, DBNTC and DBTCA filed amotion for summary judgment.  Also on December 7, 2018, plaintiffs,jointly with Commerzbank AG (see description of Commerzbank case below),filed a motion for partial summary judgment.  On October 27, 2021, DBNTCand DBTCA filed a supplemental motion for summary judgment relating toplaintiffs’ standing.  On February 8, 2022, the court issued an order inwhich it granted DBNTC and DBTCA’s supplemental motion for summary judgment,granted in part DBNTC and DBTCA’s initial motion for summary judgment, anddenied plaintiffs’ motion for partial summary judgment.  As a result ofthat order, all of plaintiffs’ claims were dismissed with prejudice.

On November 30, 2017, DBTCA was added as a defendant to acase brought by Commerzbank AG (“Commerzbank”) in the U.S. DistrictCourt for the Southern District of New York, in which Commerzbank previouslyalleged incorrectly that DBNTC served as trustee for all fifty of the trusts atissue.  On November 30, 2017, Commerzbank filed a second amended complaintthat names DBTCA as a defendant in addition to DBNTC.  DBTCA serves astrustee for one of the fifty trusts at issue.  DBNTC serves as trustee forthe other forty-nine trusts at issue.  Commerzbank’s second amendedcomplaint brings claims for violation of the TIA; breach of contract; breach offiduciary duty; negligence; violation of the Streit Act; and breach of thecovenant of good faith.  However, in the second amended complaint,Commerzbank acknowledges that, before DBTCA was added to the case, the courtdismissed Commerzbank’s TIA claims for the trusts governed by pooling andservicing agreements, as well as its Streit Act claims and claims for breach ofthe covenant of good faith, and Commerzbank only includes these claims topreserve any rights on appeal.  The second amended complaint alleges thatDBNTC and DBTCA caused Commerzbank to suffer “hundreds of millions of dollarsin losses,” but the complaint does not include a demand for money damages in asum certain.  On January 29, 2018, DBNTC and DBTCA filed an answer to thesecond amended complaint.  On December 7, 2018, DBNTC and DBTCA filed amotion for summary judgment.  Also on December 7, 2018, Commerzbank,jointly with the Phoenix Light plaintiffs, filed a motion for partial summaryjudgment.  On February 8, 2022, the court issued an order in which itgranted in part DBNTC and DBTCA’s motion for summary judgment and deniedplaintiffs’ motion for partial summary judgment.  As a result of thatorder, many of plaintiffs’ claims and theories were dismissed withprejudice.  Discovery is ongoing.

On December 30, 2015, IKB International, S.A. in Liquidationand IKB Deutsche Industriebank A.G. (collectively, “IKB”), as an investorin thirty-seven RMBS trusts, filed a summons with notice in the Supreme Courtof the State of New York, New York County, against DBNTC and DBTCA as trusteesof the trusts.  On May 27, 2016, IKB served its complaint asserting claimsfor breach of contract, breach of fiduciary duty, breach of duty to avoidconflicts of interest, violation of the Streit Act, violation of the TIA,violation of Regulation AB, and violation of Section 9 of the UniformCommercial Code.  IKB alleges that DBNTC and DBTCA are liable for overU.S. $268 million in damages.  On October 5, 2016, DBNTC and DBTCA,together with several other trustees defending lawsuits by IKB, filed a jointmotion to dismiss.  On January 6, 2017 and June 20, 2017, IKB voluntarilydismissed with prejudice all claims as to seven trusts.  On January 27,2021, the court granted in part and denied in part DBNTC and DBTCA’s motion todismiss.  The court granted the motion to dismiss with respect to IKB’sclaims for violations of the Streit Act, Regulation AB, and Section 9 of theUniform Commercial Code, as well as certain aspects of IKB’s claims for breachof contract, breach of fiduciary duty, and violation of the TIA.  Thecourt denied the remainder of the motion to dismiss.  IKB’s remaining claimsfor breach of contract, breach of fiduciary duty, breach of duty to avoidconflicts of interest, and violation of the TIA will proceed.  On May 10,2021, DBNTC and DBTCA filed a notice of appeal with the New York Supreme CourtAppellate Division, First Department, regarding certain aspects of the court’sorder on the motion to dismiss.  That appeal has been fully briefed. On May 20, 2021, IKB filed a notice of cross appeal with respect to otheraspects of that order.  That appeal is being briefed.  On June 2,2021, IKB filed a motion for re-argument regarding certain aspects of thecourt’s order on the motion to dismiss, which the court denied on August 3,2021.  On May 13, 2021, DBNTC and DBTCA filed an answer to thecomplaint.  On October 28, 2021, the parties filed a stipulation,voluntarily dismissing with prejudice all claims as to seven additionaltrusts.  On December 29, 2021, the parties filed a stipulation,voluntarily dismissing with prejudice all claims as to one additionaltrust.  Discovery is ongoing.

It is DBTCA’s belief that it has no pending legal proceedings(including, based on DBTCA’s present evaluation, the litigation disclosed inthe foregoing paragraphs) that would materially affect its ability to performits duties under the related servicing agreement for this transaction.

In December 2014, Phoenix Light SF Limited and certainrelated entities and the National Credit Union Administration (“NCUA”)filed complaints in the United States District Court for the Southern Districtof New York against Wells Fargo Bank, alleging claims against Wells Fargo Bankin its capacity as trustee for a number of residential mortgage-backedsecurities trusts.  Complaints raising similar allegations have been filedby Commerzbank AG in the Southern District of New York and by IKB Internationaland IKB Deutsche Industriebank in New York state court.  In each case, theplaintiffs allege that Wells Fargo Bank, as trustee, caused losses toinvestors, and plaintiffs assert causes of action based upon, among other things,the trustee’s alleged failure to notify and enforce repurchase obligations ofmortgage loan sellers for purported breaches of representations and warranties,notify investors of alleged events of default, and abide by appropriatestandards of care following alleged events of default.  Wells Fargo Bankpreviously settled two class action lawsuits with similar allegations that werefiled 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. In March 2021, the Company entered into an agreement to resolve the casefiled by the 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 the underlying first-party actions, Nomura and Natixis have been suedfor alleged breaches of representations and warranties made in connection withresidential mortgage-backed securities sponsored by them.  In thethird-party actions, Nomura and Natixis allege that Wells Fargo Bank, as masterservicer, primary servicer or securities administrator, failed to notify Nomuraand Natixis of their own breaches, failed to properly oversee the primaryservicers, and failed to adhere to accepted servicing practices.  Natixisadditionally alleges that Wells Fargo Bank failed to perform default oversightduties.  Wells Fargo Bank has asserted counterclaims alleging that Nomuraand Natixis failed to provide Wells Fargo Bank notice of their representationand 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.
