| EXPLANATORY NOTES |
| The 11 West 42nd Street Mortgage Loan and the Mall St. Matthews Mortgage Loan, which constituted approximately 11.2% and 11.0%, respectively, of the asset pool of the issuing entity as of its cut-off date, are assets of the issuing entity and each is part of a loan combination that includes the 11 West 42nd Street Mortgage Loan and the Mall St. Matthews Mortgage Loan and one other pari passu loan, which is not an asset of the issuing entity. These loan combinations, including the 11 West 42nd Street Mortgage Loan and the Mall St. Matthews Mortgage Loan, are being serviced and administered pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, which is incorporated by reference as Exhibit 4 to this Annual Report on Form 10-K. |
| This Annual Report on Form 10-K includes assessments of compliance with applicable servicing criteria and accountant’s attestation reports from CoreLogic Commercial Real Estate Services, Inc. and National Tax Search, LLC. These entities were engaged by the master servicer and primary servicer with respect to the 11 West 42nd Street Mortgage Loan and the Mall St. Matthews Mortgage Loan to remit tax payments received from the escrow accounts of borrowers to local taxing authorities, to report tax amounts due, to verify tax parcel information, and to verify non-escrow tax payments. These services are included within the servicing criteria set forth in Items 1122(d)(4)(xi) and 1122(d)(4)(xii).

| No entity or group of affiliated entities provides any derivative instruments or other support for the certificates within this transaction as described under Item 1115 or Regulation AB. |
| Item 1117 of Regulation AB, Legal Proceeding. | |||||||||
| The registrant knows of no material pending legal proceedings involving the entities contemplated by Item 1117 of Regulation AB, other than routine litigation incidental to the duties of those respective parties, and the following, with respect to U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee and certificate administrator: |
| In June 2014, a civil complaint was filed in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, New York County, by a group of institutional investors against U.S. Bank National Association (“U.S. Bank”), in its capacity as trustee or successor trustee (as the case may be) under certain residential mortgage backed securities ("RMBS") trusts. The plaintiffs are investment funds formed by nine investment advisors (AEGON, BlackRock, Brookfield, DZ Bank, Kore, PIMCO, Prudential, Sealink and TIAA) that purport to be bringing suit derivatively on behalf of 841 RMBS trusts that issued $771 billion in original principal amount of securities between 2004 and 2008. According to the plaintiffs, cumulative losses for these RMBS trusts equal $92.4 billion as of the date of the complaint. The complaint is one of six similar complaints filed against RMBS trustees (Deutsche Bank, Citibank, HSBC, Bank of New York Mellon and Wells Fargo) by certain of these plaintiffs. The complaint against U.S. Bank alleges the trustee caused losses to investors as a result of alleged failures by the sponsors, mortgage loan sellers and servicers for these RMBS trusts and asserts causes of action based upon the trustee's purported failure to enforce repurchase obligations of mortgage loan sellers for alleged breaches of representations and warranties concerning loan quality. The complaint also asserts that the trustee failed to notify securityholders of purported events of default allegedly caused by breaches by mortgage loan servicers and that the trustee purportedly failed to abide by appropriate standards of care following events of default. Relief sought includes money damages in an unspecified amount and equitable relief. In November 2014, the plaintiffs sought leave to voluntarily dismiss their original state court complaint and filed a substantially similar complaint in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. The federal civil complaint added a class action allegation and a change in the total number of named trusts to 843 RMBS trusts. In December 2014, the plaintiffs’ motion to voluntarily dismiss their original state court complaint was granted. Other cases alleging similar causes of action have previously been filed against U.S. Bank and other trustees by RMBS investors in other transactions. |
| There can be no assurances as to the outcome of the litigation, or the possible impact of the litigation on the trustee or the RMBS trusts. However, U.S. Bank denies liability and believes that it has performed its obligations under the RMBS trusts in good faith, that its actions were not the cause of losses to investors and that it has meritorious defenses, and it intends to contest the plaintiffs’ claims vigorously. |
| Item 1119 of Regulation AB, Affiliations and Certain Relationships and Related Transactions. | |||||||||
