EXPLANATORY NOTES

The Exhibit Index describes exhibits provided by certain parties (in their capacities indicated on the Exhibit Index) with respect to the Gansevoort Park Avenue Mortgage Loan ~~and the Miami Center Mortgage Loan~~, which constituted approximately 4.7% ~~and 4.1%, respectively,~~ of the asset pool of the issuing entity as of its cut-off date. The Gansevoort Park Avenue Mortgage Loan ~~and~~is ~~the Miami Center Mortgage Loan are each~~ an asset of the issuing entity and ~~are~~is ~~each~~ part of a loan combination that includes the Gansevoort Park Avenue Mortgage Loan ~~or the Miami Center Mortgage Loan~~ and one other pari passu loan, which is not an asset of the issuing entity. The other pari passu portion of ~~each~~ the loan combination was securitized in the Citigroup Commercial Mortgage Trust 2012-GC8 transaction, Commission File Number 333-166711-02 (the “CGCMT 2012-GC8 Transaction”). ~~These~~This loan ~~combinations~~combination, including the Gansevoort Park Avenue Mortgage Loan ~~and the Miami Center~~, ~~Mortgage~~is ~~Loan, are~~ being serviced and administered pursuant to the pooling and servicing agreement for the CGCMT 2012-GC8 Transaction, which is incorporated by reference as Exhibit 4.2 to this Annual Report on Form 10-K. The Miami Center Mortgage Loan, previously an asset of the issuing entity being serviced under the pooling and servicing agreement for the CGCMT 2012-GC8 Transaction, was not an asset of the issuing entity during the reporting period and is omitted from this Annual Report on Form 10-K and will be omitted from subsequent Annual Reports on Form 10-K.

The master servicer of a pooling and servicing agreement or trust and servicing agreement also functions as the primary servicer of the related mortgage loans serviced and administered pursuant to such agreement unless a separate primary servicer is identified herein. If this report does not identify a separate primary servicer, the servicer compliance statement provided by the master servicer under any such agreement also encompasses its responsibilities as primary servicer of the related mortgage loan or mortgage loans.

Wells Fargo Bank, National Association is the master servicer of the mortgage loans serviced under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the primary servicer of the Gansevoort Park Avenue Mortgage Loan ~~and the Miami Center Mortgage Loan~~. As a result, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association is a “servicer” as defined in Item 1108(a)(2)(iii) of Regulation AB, in the capacities described above, because it is servicing mortgage loans that constituted 10% or more of the assets of the issuing entity as of its cut-off date. The assessments of compliance with applicable servicing criteria, accountants’ attestation reports and servicer compliance statements delivered by Wells Fargo Bank, National Association in the capacities described above are listed in the Exhibit Index.

This Annual Report on Form 10-K includes an assessment of compliance with applicable servicing criteria and an accountant’s attestation report from U.S. Bank National Association. This entity was engaged by the certificate administrator under the Gansevoort Park Avenue Mortgage Loan and the Miami Center Mortgage Loan to perform certain custodial services. These custodial services are servicing functions included within the servicing criteria set forth in Items 1122(d)(4)(i) and 1122(d)(4)(ii) of Regulation AB. Therefore, under the principles-based definition of “servicer” set forth in Item 1101(j) or Regulation AB that looks to the functions that an entity performs, this vendor is a “servicer” for the purposes of Item 1122 of Regulation AB. See Compliance and Disclosure Interpretations, Section 301.01 (Item 1101(j)).

The assessments of compliance with applicable servicing criteria, accountants’ attestation reports and servicer compliance statements of the certificate administrator of the Gansevoort Park Avenue Mortgage Loan and the Miami Center Mortgage Loan are omitted from this Annual Report on Form 10-K as the certificate administrator pursuant to the related pooling and servicing agreement or trust and servicing agreement does not perform any activities that address servicing criteria with respect to the issuing entity and because it is not a “servicer” that meets the criteria in Item 1108(a)(2)(i) through (iii) of Regulation AB.

The registrant knows of no material pending legal proceeding involving the trust or any party related to the trust, 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, Certificate Administrator and Custodian.

6In the last several years, U.S. Bank National Association (“U.S. Bank”) and other large financial institutions have been sued in their capacity as trustee or successor trustee for certain residential mortgage backed securities (“RMBS”) trusts. The complaints, primarily filed by investors or investor groups against U.S. Bank and similar institutions, allege the trustees caused losses to investors as a result of alleged failures by the sponsors, mortgage loan sellers and servicers to comply with the governing agreements for these RMBS trusts. Plaintiffs generally assert causes of action based upon the trustees’ purported failures to enforce repurchase obligations of mortgage loan sellers for alleged breaches of representations and warranties, notify securityholders of purported events of default allegedly caused by breaches of servicing standards by mortgage loan servicers and abide by a heightened standard of care following alleged events of default.

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, that it has meritorious defenses, and it has contested and intends to continue contesting the plaintiffs’ claims vigorously. However, U.S. Bank cannot assure you as to the outcome of any of the litigation, or the possible impact of these litigations on the trustee or the RMBS trusts.

On March 9, 2018, a law firm purporting to represent fifteen Delaware statutory trusts (the “DSTs”) that issued securities backed by student loans (the “Student Loans”) filed a lawsuit in the Delaware Court of Chancery against U.S. Bank National Association (“U.S. Bank”) in its capacities as indenture trustee and successor special servicer, and three other institutions in their respective transaction capacities, with respect to the DSTs and the Student Loans. This lawsuit is captioned The National Collegiate Student Loan Master Trust I, et al. v. U.S. Bank National ~~Ass’n~~Association, et al., C.A. No. 2018-0167-JRS (Del. Ch.) (the “NCMSLT Action”). The complaint, as amended on June 15, 2018, alleged that the DSTs have been harmed as a result of purported misconduct or omissions by the defendants concerning administration of the trusts and special servicing of the Student Loans. Since the filing of the NCMSLT Action, certain Student Loan borrowers have made assertions against U.S. Bank concerning special servicing that appear to be based on certain allegations made on behalf of the DSTs in the NCMSLT Action.
