The
following information is substitute information provided in accordance with General Instruction J to Form 10-K:

Item 1112(b) of Regulation
AB. Significant Obligor Financial Information

No single obligor represents more than 10% of the pool assets held by the Issuing
Entity.

Items 1114(b)(2) of Regulation AB. Credit Enhancement and Other Support, Except for Certain Derivatives

No entity or group of affiliated entities provides external credit enhancement or other support with respect to payments on the notes issued by
the Issuing Entity.

Items 1115(b) of Regulation AB. Credit Derivatives Instruments

No entity or group of affiliated entities provides derivative instruments with respect to payments on the notes issued by the Issuing Entity.

Item 1117 of Regulation AB. Legal Proceedings

Other than as stated in the following paragraph, no legal proceedings are pending against the Issuing Entity, Navient Solutions, Inc., as the
Sponsor, the Servicer and the Administrator, Navient Funding, LLC, as the Depositor (the Depositor) and registrant under Registration Statement Number 333-190926 (the Registrant) or to the Registrants knowledge,
Deutsche Bank National Trust Company, as the Indenture Trustee, that are or would be material to the holders of the notes issued by the Issuing Entity, nor does the Registrant know of any such proceeding contemplated by any governmental authorities.

On June 18, 2014, a group of investors, including funds managed by Blackrock Advisors, LLC, PIMCO-Advisors, L.P., and others, filed
a derivative action against Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas (DBTCA) and Deutsche Bank National Trust Company (DBNTC) in New York State Supreme Court purportedly on behalf of and for the benefit of 544 private-label RMBS
trusts asserting claims for alleged violations of the U.S. Trust Indenture Act of 1939 (TIA), breach of contract, breach of fiduciary duty and negligence based on DBNTC and DBTCAs alleged failure to perform their duties as trustees for the
trusts. Plaintiffs subsequently dismissed their state court complaint and filed a derivative and class action complaint in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York on behalf of and for the benefit of 564 private-label RMBS
trusts, which substantially overlapped with the trusts at issue in the state court action. The complaint alleges that the trusts at issue have suffered total realized collateral losses of U.S. $89.4 billion, but the complaint does not include a
demand for money damages in a sum certain. DBNTC and DBTCA filed a motion to dismiss, and on January 19, 2016, the court partially granted the motion on procedural grounds: as to the 500 trusts that are governed by Pooling and Servicing
Agreements, the court declined to exercise jurisdiction. The court did not rule on substantive defenses asserted in the motion to dismiss as to the 64 trusts formed under indentures for which it retained jurisdiction. Instead, the court ordered
plaintiffs to file an amended complaint as to those indenture trusts. On February 23, 2016, plaintiffs filed an amended complaint as to 62 of the 64 indenture trusts included in the original U.S. District Court complaint. DBNTC and DBTCA will
have an opportunity to file new defensive motions with respect to this amended complaint. It is anticipated that plaintiffs will, in the near future, file a new state court complaint as to some or all of the 500 trusts governed by Pooling and
Servicing Agreements which were dismissed from the U.S. District Court action. On December 30, 2015, IKB International, S.A. and IKB Deutsche Industriebank A.G. filed a Summons With Notice in New York state court naming as defendants DBNTC and
DBTCA, as trustees of 37 RMBS trusts (the IKB Action). The claims in the IKB Action appear to be substantively similar to the SDNY Action. The IKB Action is not styled as a putative class action, but may attempt to bring derivative
claims on behalf of the named RMBS Trusts. DBTCA intends to

vigorously defend the IKB Action. DBTCA has no pending legal proceedings (including, based on DBTCAs present evaluation, the litigation disclosed in this paragraph) that would materially
affect its ability to perform its duties as trustee on behalf of the trust identified on the cover of this Form 10-K. Such trust is not a party to this litigation.

Item 1119 of Regulation AB. Affiliations and Certain Relationships and Related Transactions

Pursuant to the Instruction to Item 1119 of Regulation AB, information required by Item 1119 has been omitted from this Report
because substantially the same information related to affiliates of the Issuing Entity and certain relationships and related transactions is provided in the section titled The Sponsor, Servicer and Administrator of the base prospectus,
previously filed with the SEC on November 19, 2014 pursuant to Securities Act Rule 424, file number 333-190926.

Item 1122 of Regulation
AB. Compliance with Applicable Servicing Criteria

Navient Solutions, Inc., as the Servicer, Navient Solutions, Inc., as the
Administrator and Deutsche Bank National Trust Company, as the Indenture Trustee (collectively, the Servicing Parties) have each been identified by the Depositor as parties participating in the servicing function with respect to the
asset pool held by the Issuing Entity. Each of the Servicing Parties has completed a report on assessment of compliance with the servicing criteria applicable to it (each a Servicing Report), which Servicing Reports are attached as
exhibits to this Form 10-K. Each of the Servicing Parties have provided an attestation report (each an Attestation Report) by one or more public accounting firms, which reports are also attached as exhibits to this Report. None of the
Servicing Reports or Attestation Reports has identified any material instance of noncompliance with the servicing criteria as applicable to the respective Servicing Party. There have been no material instances of noncompliance with the servicing
criteria for the period of this Report.

Item 1123 of Regulation AB. Servicer Compliance Statement

A Servicer Compliance Statement for each of Navient Solutions, Inc., as Servicer, and Navient Solutions, Inc., as Administrator, is included as
an exhibit to this Report.
