The following four paragraphs are disclosure received from Navient Solutions, LLC (formerly, Navient Solutions, Inc.), the servicer for this transaction.

On January 18, 2017, the CFPB and Attorneys General for the State of Illinois and the State of Washington (collectively the “Attorneys General”) initiated civil actions naming Navient Corporation (“Navient”) has been named as defendant in a number of putative class action and several of its subsidiaries as defendantsother cases alleging violations of Federalvarious state and Statefederal consumer protection statutes,laws including the Telephone Consumer Protection Act, the Consumer Financial Protection Act of 2010 (CFPA), the Fair Credit Reporting Act (FCRA), the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act (FDCPA), in adversarial proceedings under the United States Bankruptcy Code, and various state consumer protection laws. These civil actions are related to the aforementioned CIDs and the NORA letter that were previously issued by the CFPB and the Attorneys General. In addition to these matters, a number of lawsuits have been filed by nongovernmental parties or may be filed by additional governmental or nongovernmental parties, including other state attorneys general or private litigants, seeking damages or other remedies related to similar issues raised by the CFPB and the Attorneys General.  One such lawsuit was filed on October 5, 2017 by the Attorney General of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, naming Navient Corporation and Navient Solutions, LLC as defendants alleging claims and seeking legal and equitable relief that are substantially similar to claims made and relief by the CFPB and other Attorneys General.  The Company filed its Motion to Dismiss on March 20, 2017 with respect to the Attorneys General actions and on March 24, 2017 with respect to the CFPB action.  In April 2017, the CFPB filed their response to our Motion to Dismiss and in May 2017, we filed our response.  A hearing on our Motion to Dismiss was held on June 27, 2017 and the Court denied our motion on August 4, 2017.  On May 24, 2017, the WA AG filed their response to our Motion to Dismiss and on July 5, 2017, we filed our response.  The Motion to Dismiss was denied on July 10, 2017, after a hearing.  On May 24, 2017, the IL AG filed their response to our Motion to Dismiss and on June 30, 2017, we filed our response. A hearing on our Motion to Dismiss was held on July 18, 2017 and as of March 29, 2018, the Court has not ruled on the motion.   In relation to the Pennsylvania Attorney General lawsuit, the Company filed its Motion to Dismiss on December 22, 2017.  The motion has not been heard by the court.  As the Company has previously stated, we believe the suits improperly seek to impose penalties on Navient based on new servicing standards applied retroactively and applied only against one servicer and that the allegations are false. We intend to vigorously defend against the allegations included in these lawsuits and any subsequent lawsuits that may be filed by governmental or nongovernmental parties, including other state attorneys general or private litigants, seeking similar damages and remedies. At this point in time, the CompanyNavient is unable to anticipate the timing of a resolution or the ultimate impact that these legal proceedings may have on the Company’sits consolidated financial position, liquidity, results of operation or cash flows. As a result, it is not possible at this time to estimate a range of potential exposure, if any, for amounts that may be payable in connection with these matters and reservesloss contingency accruals have not been established. It is possible that an adverse ruling or rulings may have a material adverse impact on Navient, Navient Solutions and/or their affiliates or on the Company.financial ability of the depositor, the servicer or a seller to fulfill an obligation to purchase or repurchase trust student loans in connection with a breach of representation, warranty or covenant.

In January 2017, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (the CFPB) and Attorneys General for the State of Illinois and the State of Washington initiated civil actions naming Navient and several of its subsidiaries (including Navient Solutions) as defendants alleging violations of certain Federal and State consumer protection statutes, including the CFPA, FCRA, FDCPA and various state consumer protection laws. The Attorneys General for the States of Pennsylvania, California, Mississippi, and New Jersey also initiated actions against Navient and certain subsidiaries alleging violations of various state and federal consumer protection laws based upon similar alleged acts or failures to act. In addition to these matters, a number of lawsuits have been filed by nongovernmental parties or, in the future, may be filed by additional governmental or nongovernmental parties seeking damages or other remedies related to similar issues raised by the CFPB and the State Attorneys General. In January 2022, Navient entered into a series of Consent Judgment and Orders (the “Agreements”) with 40 State Attorneys General to resolve all matters in dispute related to the State Attorneys General cases as well as the related investigations, subpoenas, civil investigative demands and inquiries from various other state regulators. These Agreements do not resolve the litigation involving Navient and the CFPB. Navient has cancelled the loan balance of approximately 66,000 borrowers with qualifying Private Education Loans that were originated largely between 2002 and 2010 and later defaulted and charged off. The loans cancelled have aggregate outstanding balances of approximately $1.7 billion. The expense to Navient to cancel these loans was approximately $50 million which represents the amount of expected future recoveries of these charged-off loans on the balance sheet. In addition, Navient agreed to make a one-time payment of approximately $145 million to the states. In the fourth quarter of 2021 when such loss became probable, Navient recognized total regulatory expenses of approximately $205 million related to this matter.

As Navient has previously stated, Navient believes the allegations in the CFPB suit are false and that they improperly seek to impose penalties on Navient based on new, previously unannounced servicing standards applied retroactively against only one servicer. Navient therefore has denied these allegations and is vigorously defending against the allegations in that case. Due to recent developments in connection with the CFPB case, Navient increased its accrual for probable incurred loss in this matter to $72.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2023.  The litigation process is not predictable and can lead to unexpected results and therefore it is reasonably possible that Navient’s exposure to loss may exceed any amounts accrued.

On April 12, 2023, Navient reached an agreement in principle (“Settlement”) with certain plaintiffs for a nationwide settlement of claims raised in the following bankruptcy adversary actions: Coyle v. Navient Solutions, LLC, No. 22-80018 (Bankr. W.D. Mich.); Homaidan v. SLM Corp., No. 1:17-ap-01085 (Bankr. E.D.N.Y.); Mazloom v. Navient Solutions, LLC, No. 20-80033-6 (Bankr. N.D.N.Y.); and Woodard v. Navient Solutions, LLC, No. 08-81442 (Bankr. D. Neb.) collectively referred to as the “Bankruptcy Cases.” The Settlement has received final court approval. Under the Settlement, Navient will forego the collection of defined balances for borrowers or co-borrowers of certain private loans — all of which were originated prior to Navient’s separation — who have received a discharge in bankruptcy during the periods covered by the agreements. As a result, Navient recorded a $23 million additional private loan provision for loan losses in the first quarter of 2016,2023 related to the estimated future charge offs that are expected to occur. Navient Corporation, certainhas also agreed to fund settlement funds. Navient officers and directors, and the underwriters of certain Navient securities offerings were sued in three putative securities class action lawsuits filed on behalf of certain investors in Navient stock or Navient unsecured debt. These three cases, which were filedanticipates that any cash contribution it will be required to make to these funds will not exceed $44 million in the U.S. District Courtaggregate and will be fully covered by insurance. The net impact to operating expense for this element of the settlement for the Districtfirst quarter of Delaware, were consolidated by2023 was $0 due to the District Court, with Lord Abbett Funds appointed as Lead Plaintiff. The captionaccrual of the consolidated case is Lord Abbett Affiliated Fund, Inc., et al. v. Navient Corporation, et al. The plaintiffs filed their amended and consolidated complaint in September 2016. The Court ruled on our Motion to Dismiss on September 6, 2017 and dismissed the complaint in its entirety without prejudice. The plaintiffs filed a further amended and restated complaint on November 17, 2017.  The Navient defendants intend to vigorously defend against the allegations.offsetting insurance reimbursements.
 
During the fourth quarter of 2017, Navient Corporation and certain Navient officers were named in two putative class action lawsuits filed on behalf of certain investors in Navient stock entitled Pope v. Navient Corporation, et al and Gross v. Navient Corporation, et al.  These cases have been consolidated.  The Navient defendants intend to vigorously defend against these allegations.
At this stage in the proceedings, we are unable to anticipate the timing of resolution or the ultimate impact, if any, that the legal proceedings may have on the consolidated financial position, liquidity, results of operations or cash-flows of Navient and its affiliates. As a result, it is not possible at this time to estimate a range of potential exposure, if any, for amounts that may be payable in connection with these matters and reserves have not been established. It is possible that an adverse ruling or rulings may have a material adverse impact on the Company.

The following paragraph isparagraphs are disclosure received from Computershare Trust Company, N.A. (“CTC”), as agent for Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. (“Wells Fargo Bank”) concerning theirWells Fargo Bank’s role as trustee of certain residential mortgage backed securities trusts.

On June 18, 2014, a group of institutional investors filed a civil complaint in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, New York County, against Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., (“Wells Fargo Bank”) in its capacity as trustee under 276 residential mortgage backed securities (“RMBS”) trusts, which was later amended on July 18,trusts.

In December 2014, to increase the number of trusts to 284 RMBS trusts. On November 24, 2014, the plaintiffsPhoenix Light SF Limited (Phoenix Light) and certain related entities filed a motion to voluntarily dismiss the state court action without prejudice. That same day, a group of institutional investors filed a putative class action complaint in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (the “District Court”)alleging claims against Wells Fargo Bank, alleging claims against the bankN.A., in its capacity as trustee for 274 RMBS trusts (the “Federal Court Complaint”). In December 2014,a number of residential mortgage-backed securities (RMBS) trusts. Complaints raising similar allegations have been filed by Commerzbank AG in the plaintiffs’ motion to voluntarily dismiss their original state court action was granted. As with the prior state court action, the Federal Court Complaint is one of six similar complaints filed contemporaneously against RMBS trustees (Deutsche Bank, Citibank, HSBC, BankSouthern District of New York, MellonIKB International and US Bank) by a group of institutional investor plaintiffs. The Federal Court Complaint againstIKB Deutsche Industriebank (together, IKB) in New York state court, and Park Royal I LLC and Park Royal II LLC in New York state court. In each case, the plaintiffs allege that Wells Fargo Bank, alleges that theN.A., as trustee, caused losses to investors, and assertsplaintiffs assert causes of action based upon, among other things, the trustee'strustee’s alleged failure to: (i)to notify and enforce repurchase obligations of mortgage loan sellers for purported breaches of representations and warranties, (ii) notify investors of alleged events of default, and (iii) abide by appropriate standards of care following alleged events of default. Relief sought includes money damagesIn July 2022, the district court dismissed Phoenix Light’s claims and certain of the claims asserted by Commerzbank AG, and subsequently entered judgment in an unspecified amount, reimbursementeach case in favor of expenses, and equitable relief. Other cases alleging similar causes of action have been filed against Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. In August 2022, Phoenix Light and other trusteesCommerzbank AG each appealed the district court’s decision to the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit. Phoenix Light dismissed its appeal in the District Court by RMBS investors in these and other transactions, and these cases againstMay 2023, terminating its case. In November 2023, Wells Fargo Bank, are proceeding before the same District Court judge. A similar complaint was also filed May 27, 2016 in New York state court by a different plaintiff investor. On January 19, 2016,N.A. entered into an order was entered in connectionagreement with the Federal Court Complaint in which the District Court declinedIKB to exercise jurisdiction over 261 trusts at issue in the Federal Court Complaint; the District Court also allowed plaintiffs to file amended complaints as to the remaining, non-dismissed trusts, if they so chose, and three amended complaints have been filed. On December 17, 2016, the investor plaintiffs in the 261 trusts dismissed from the Federal Court Complaint filed a new complaint in New York state court (the “State Court Complaint”). In September 2017, Royal Park Investments SA/NV (“Royal Park”), one of the plaintiffs in the District Court cases againstresolve IKB’s claims. Wells Fargo Bank, filed a putativeN.A. previously settled two class action complaint relating to two trusts seeking declaratory and injunctive relief and money damages based on Wells Fargo Bank’s indemnification from trust funds for legal fees and expenses Wells Fargo Bank incurs or has incurred in defending the District Court caseactions filed by Royal Park. institutional investors and an action filed by the National Credit Union Administration with similar allegations.

With respect to the foregoing litigations, Wells Fargo Bank believes plaintiffs'plaintiffs’ claims are without merit and intends to contest the claims vigorously, but there can be no assurances as to the outcome of the litigations or the possible impact of the litigations on Wells Fargo Bank or the related RMBS trusts.
