Management’s Report on Assessment of Compliance with SEC Regulation AB Servicing Criteria

Midland Loan Services, a division of PNC Bank, National Association (“Midland” or the “Company”), is responsible for compliance with the applicable servicing criteria set forth in Item 1122(d) of Regulation AB of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“Regulation AB”), as set forth in Appendix A.

Midland has assessed its compliance with the applicable servicing criteria as of and for the year ended December 31, 2021 (the “Reporting Period”). In making this assessment, Midland used the criteria set forth by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) in Item 1122(d) of Regulation AB. This report covers all transactions serviced on the Enterprise!® Loan Management System (the “Platform”) during the Reporting Period.

Midland engaged certain vendors, which are not servicers as defined in item 1101(j) of Regulation AB (the “Vendors”), to perform specific and limited or scripted activities related to portions of the servicing criteria as set forth in Appendix A. Midland elects to take responsibility for assessing compliance with the servicing criteria or portion of the servicing criteria applicable to such Vendors’ activities as set forth in Appendix A. Midland has not identified and is not aware of any material instances of noncompliance by the Vendors with the applicable servicing criteria as of December 31, 2021 and for the Reporting Period with respect to the Platform taken as a whole, nor has it identified any material deficiencies in its policies and procedures to monitor the compliance by the Vendors with the applicable servicing criteria as of December 31, 2021 and for the Reporting Period with respect to the Platform taken as a whole.

Based on this assessment, Midland concludes that, as of and for the year ended December 31, 2021, Midland has complied in all material respects with the applicable servicing criteria set forth in Item 1122(d) of Regulation AB.

PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, has issued an attestation report on Midland’s compliance with the applicable servicing criteria as of and for the year ended December 31, 2021 for all transactions serviced on the Enterprise! Loan Management System.
