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.

However, during thereporting period, the trustee did not perform any servicing function withrespect 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.

**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 trustee,as certificate administrator and as custodian, and Deutsche Bank Trust CompanyAmericas, as custodian.

Beginning on June 18, 2014, a group of institutionalinvestors filed civil complaints in the Supreme Court of the State of New York,New York County, and later the U.S. District Court for the Southern District ofNew York, against Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., (“Wells Fargo Bank”) in itscapacity as trustee for certain residential mortgage backed securities (“RMBS”)trusts.  The complaints against Wells Fargo Bank alleged that the trusteecaused losses to investors and asserted causes of action based upon, amongother things, the trustee's alleged failure to: (i) notify and enforcerepurchase obligations of mortgage loan sellers for purported breaches ofrepresentations and warranties, (ii) notify investors of alleged events ofdefault, and (iii) abide by appropriate standards of care following allegedevents of default. Relief sought included money damages in an unspecifiedamount, reimbursement of expenses, and equitable relief. In November 2018,Wells Fargo Bank reached an agreement, in which it denied any wrongdoing, toresolve such claims on a classwide basis for the 271 RMBS trusts atissue.  On May 6, 2019, the court entered an order approving thesettlement agreement.  Separate lawsuits against Wells Fargo Bank making similarallegations filed by certain other institutional investors concerning severalRMBS trusts in New York federal and state court are not covered by theagreement.  With respect to such litigations, Wells Fargo Bank believesplaintiffs' claims are without merit and intends to contest the claimsvigorously, but there can be no assurances as to the outcome of the litigationsor the possible impact of the litigations on Wells Fargo Bank or the RMBStrusts.

Deutsche Bank Trust CompanyAmericas (“DBTCA”) and Deutsche Bank National Trust Company (“DBNTC”)have been sued by investors in civil litigation concerning their role astrustees of certain RMBS trusts. 

 

On June 18, 2014, a group of investors, including funds managedby Blackrock Advisors, LLC, PIMCO-Advisors, L.P., and others, filed an actionagainst DBNTC and DBTCA in New York State Supreme Court alleging that DBNTC andDBTCA failed to perform purported duties, as trustees for 544 private-labelRMBS trusts, to enforce breaches of representations and warranties as tomortgage loans held by the trusts and to enforce breaches by servicers of theirmortgage loan servicing obligations for the trusts.  During the course ofthe litigation, plaintiffs dismissed the case from New York State Supreme Courtand refiled two separate cases, one in the U.S. District Court for the SouthernDistrict of New York (the “*BlackRock*SDNY Case”) and theother in the Superior Court of California, Orange County (the “*BlackRock*CaliforniaCase”).  Pursuant to a settlement among the parties, the *BlackRock*SDNYCase was dismissed on December 6, 2018 and the *BlackRock*California Casewas dismissed on January 11, 2019.

 

On September 27, 2017, DBTCA was addedas a defendant to a case brought by certain special purpose entities includingPhoenix Light SF Limited in the U.S. District Court for the Southern Districtof New York, in which the plaintiffs previously alleged incorrectly that DBNTCserved as trustee for all 43 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 the 43trusts at issue.  DBNTC serves as trustee for the other 42 trusts atissue.  Plaintiffs’ third amended complaint brings claims for violation ofthe U.S. Trust Indenture Act of 1939 (“TIA”); breach of contract; breachof fiduciary duty; negligence and gross negligence; violation of New York’sStreit Act; and breach of the covenant of good faith.  However, in thethird amended complaint, plaintiffs acknowledge that, before DBTCA was added tothe case, the court dismissed plaintiffs’ TIA Act claims, negligence and grossnegligence claims, Streit Act claims, claims for breach of the covenant of goodfaith, and certain theories of plaintiffs’ breach of contract claims, andplaintiffs only include these claims to preserve any rights on appeal. Plaintiffs allege damages of “hundreds of millions of dollars.”  OnNovember 13, 2017, DBNTC and DBTCA filed an answer to the third amendedcomplaint.  On December 7, 2018, DBNTC and DBTCA filed a motion forsummary judgment.  Also on December 7, 2018, plaintiffs, jointly withCommerzbank AG (*see* description of *Commerzbank* case below), fileda motion for partial summary judgment.  As of March 1, 2020, both motionsfor summary judgment have been briefed and are awaiting decision by the court.

 

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 50 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 1 of the 50 trusts at issue.  DBNTC serves as trustee for theother 49 trusts at issue.  Commerzbank’s second amended complaint bringsclaims for violation of the TIA; breach of contract; breach of fiduciary duty;negligence; violation of the Streit Act; and breach of the covenant of goodfaith.  However, in the second amended complaint, Commerzbank acknowledgesthat, before DBTCA was added to the case, the court dismissed Commerzbank’s TIAclaims for the trusts governed by pooling and servicing agreements, as well asits Streit Act claims and claims for breach of the covenant of good faith, andCommerzbank only includes these claims to preserve any rights on appeal. The second amended complaint alleges that DBNTC and DBTCA caused Commerzbank tosuffer “hundreds of millions of dollars in losses,” but the complaint does notinclude a demand for money damages in a sum certain.  On January 29, 2018,DBNTC and DBTCA filed an answer to the second amended complaint.  OnDecember 7, 2018, DBNTC and DBTCA filed a motion for summary judgment. Also on December 7, 2018, Commerzbank, jointly with the *Phoenix Light*plaintiffs,filed a motion for partial summary judgment.  As of March 1, 2020, bothmotions for summary judgment have been briefed and are awaiting decision by thecourt.

 

On December 30, 2015, IKBInternational, S.A. in Liquidation and IKB Deutsche Industriebank A.G.(collectively, “IKB”), as an investor in 37 RMBS trusts, filed a summonswith notice in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, New York County,against DBNTC and DBTCA as trustees of the trusts.  On May 27, 2016, IKBserved its complaint asserting claims for breach of contract, breach offiduciary duty, breach of duty to avoid conflicts of interest, violation of theStreit Act, violation of the TIA, violation of Regulation AB, and violation ofSection 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code.  IKB alleges that DBNTC andDBTCA are liable for over U.S. $268 million in damages.  On October 5,2016, DBNTC and DBTCA, together with several other trustees defending lawsuitsby IKB, filed a joint motion to dismiss.  On January 6, 2017 and June 20,2017, IKB voluntarily dismissed with prejudice all claims as to seventrusts.  As of March 1, 2020, DBNTC and DBTCA’s motion to dismiss has beenbriefed and is awaiting decision by the court.

It is DBTCA’s belief that it has nopending legal proceedings (including, based on DBTCA’s present evaluation, thelitigation disclosed in the foregoing paragraphs) that would materially affectits ability to perform its duties under the related servicing agreement forthis transaction.

The report on assessment of compliance with applicableservicing criteria furnished pursuant to Item 1122 of Regulation AB by MidlandLoan Services, a Division of PNC Bank National Association (“Midland”)discloses that a material instance of noncompliance occurred, as describedbelow:

Material Instance of Noncompliance

In certain instances, the ScheduleAL Files (Item 1125 of Regulation AB) were not reported in accordance with theterms specified in the transaction agreements, in conflict with Item1122(d)(3)(i): “Reports to investors, including those to be filed with theCommission, are maintained in accordance with the transaction agreements andapplicable Commission requirements. Specifically, such reports: (A) Areprepared in accordance with timeframes and other terms set forth in thetransaction agreements”.  The noncompliance consisted of omitted orinaccurately reported fields as described in (1) and (2) below.  (1) Inconnection with other enhancements Midland made to its manual Schedule ALprocess, starting in April 2019, Midland developed and implemented new ScheduleAL reporting templates for each applicable CMBS transaction that closed priorto April 2019 and for each applicable CMBS transaction going forward. Related to this, Midland made certain template setup errors, along with relatedand other manual inputting of information errors, and the errors were notidentified prior to submission of the applicable Schedule AL Files in certaincases due to breakdowns in quality control.  (2) In one applicabletransaction, the related Schedule AL File for a given month was not savedproperly resulting in the prior month's Schedule AL File being submitted forthe given month instead of the correct Schedule AL File. 

The identified instances did notinvolve the servicing of assets included in this securitization.
