**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 Wells Fargo Bank National Association, as certificateadministrator and custodian:

On June 18, 2014, a group of institutional investors filed acivil complaint in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, New York County,against Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. (“Wells Fargo Bank”), in itscapacity as trustee under 276 residential mortgage backed securities (“RMBS”)trusts, which was later amended on July 18, 2014, to increase the number oftrusts to 284 RMBS trusts. On November 24, 2014, the plaintiffs filed a motion tovoluntarily dismiss the state court action without prejudice. That same day, agroup of institutional investors filed a putative class action complaint in theUnited States District Court for the Southern District of New York (the “DistrictCourt”) against Wells Fargo Bank, alleging claims against the bank inits capacity as trustee for 274 RMBS trusts (the “Federal CourtComplaint”). In December 2014, the plaintiffs’ motion tovoluntarily dismiss their original state court action was granted. As with theprior state court action, the Federal Court Complaint is one of six similarcomplaints filed contemporaneously against RMBS trustees (Deutsche Bank,Citibank, HSBC, Bank of New York Mellon and US Bank) by a group ofinstitutional investor plaintiffs. The Federal Court Complaint against WellsFargo Bank alleges that the trustee caused losses to investors and assertscauses of action based upon, among other things, the trustee's alleged failureto: (i) notify and enforce repurchase obligations of mortgage loan sellers forpurported breaches of representations and warranties, (ii) notify investors ofalleged events of default, and (iii) abide by appropriate standards of carefollowing alleged events of default. Relief sought includes money damages in anunspecified amount, reimbursement of expenses, and equitable relief. Othercases alleging similar causes of action have been filed against Wells FargoBank and other trustees in the District Court by RMBS investors in these andother transactions, and these cases against Wells Fargo Bank are proceedingbefore the same District Court judge. A similar complaint was also filed May27, 2016 in New York state court by a different plaintiff investor. On January19, 2016, an order was entered in connection with the Federal Court Complaintin which the District Court declined to exercise jurisdiction over 261 trustsat issue in the Federal Court Complaint; the District Court also allowedplaintiffs to file amended complaints as to the remaining, non-dismissedtrusts, if they so chose, and three amended complaints have been filed. OnDecember 17, 2016, the investor plaintiffs in the 261 trusts dismissed from theFederal Court Complaint filed a new complaint in New York state court (the“State Court Complaint”). Motions to dismiss all of theactions are pending except for the recently filed State Court Complaint. Therecan be no assurances as to the outcome of the litigations, or the possibleimpact of the litigations on the trustee or the RMBS trusts. However, WellsFargo Bank denies liability and believes that it has performed its obligationsunder the RMBS trusts in good faith, that its actions were not the cause of anylosses to investors, and that it has meritorious defenses, and it intends tocontest the plaintiffs’ claims vigorously.
