No other changes have been made to the Original Form 10‑K. This Amendment No. 1 does not reflect subsequent events occurring after the original filing date of the Original Form 10-K.
The BANK 2017-BNK8 mortgage pool includes the following mortgage loans, each of which is serviced pursuant to a separate pooling and servicing agreement (each, an “Outside Pooling and Servicing Agreement”):
• the 222 Second Street mortgage loan, which is serviced pursuant to the BANK 2017-BNK7 pooling and servicing agreement attached hereto as Exhibit 4.2;
• the Colorado Center mortgage loan, which is serviced pursuant to the BXP 2017-CC trust and servicing agreement attached hereto as Exhibit 4.3;
• the 237 Park Avenue mortgage loan, which is serviced pursuant to the MSSG 2017-237P trust and servicing agreement attached hereto as Exhibit 4.4;
• the Pleasant Prairie Premium Outlets mortgage loan, which is serviced pursuant to the CGCMT 2017-P8 pooling and servicing agreement attached hereto as Exhibit 4.5; and
• the Cabela’s Industrial Portfolio mortgage loan, which is serviced pursuant to the GSMS 2017-GS8 pooling and servicing agreement attached hereto as Exhibit 4.6.
Except as set forth below, each of the parties to each pooling and servicing agreement listed in the Exhibit Index both (1) participates in the servicing function for purposes of Item 1122 of Regulation AB and (2) constitutes a servicer that meets the criteria in Item 1108(a)(2)(i) through (iii) of Regulation AB for purposes of Item 1123 of Regulation AB:
• The trustee under a pooling and servicing agreement has a nominal role with respect to the mortgage pool securitized pursuant to such pooling and servicing agreement. The trustee’s only servicing function is the contingent obligation to make certain advances if the master servicer under such pooling and servicing agreement fails to do so, while all other servicing functions are performed by other parties. The trustee under each of the pooling and servicing agreements listed in the Exhibit Index has confirmed to the registrant that it has not made any such contingent advances during the reporting period, and consequently, each such trustee does not participate in the servicing function for purposes of Item 1122 of Regulation AB, nor does it perform the functions of a servicer for purposes of the definition of “servicer” under Item 1101 of Regulation AB or for purposes of Item 1123 of Regulation AB.
• The certificate administrator under a pooling and servicing agreement performs various payment administration functions solely for the securitization governed by such pooling and servicing agreement and the mortgage pool securitized pursuant to such pooling and servicing agreement and does not have any obligations with respect to any other transaction. Consequently, the certificate administrator under an Outside Pooling and Servicing Agreement does not participate in the servicing function for purposes of Item 1122 of Regulation AB, nor does it perform the functions of a servicer for purposes of the definition of “servicer” under Item 1101 of Regulation AB or for purposes of Item 1123 of Regulation AB.
• The operating advisor under a pooling and servicing agreement represents the interests of senior certificateholders in the transaction governed by such pooling and servicing agreement and is responsible for monitoring the performance of the special servicer under such pooling and servicing agreement and producing certain reports to certificateholders relating to the resolution of the mortgage pool securitized pursuant to such pooling and servicing agreement. The operating advisor under a pooling and servicing agreement does not have any obligations with respect to any other transaction and is solely obligated to perform loan reporting functions with respect to the securitization governed by such pooling and servicing agreement. Consequently, the operating advisor under an Outside Pooling and Servicing Agreement neither participates in the servicing function for purposes of Item 1122 of Regulation AB nor performs the functions of a servicer for purposes of the definition of “servicer” under Item 1101 of Regulation AB or for purposes of Item 1123 of Regulation AB. In addition, while the operating advisor under a pooling and servicing agreement has certain reporting obligations in respect of the related mortgage pool, it has no obligation to collect or disburse funds in respect of the mortgage pool or to administer any of the underlying mortgage loans. Consequently, the operating advisor under a pooling and servicing agreement participates in the servicing function for purposes of Item 1122 of Regulation AB, but is not responsible for the “management or collection of the pool assets or making allocations or distributions to holders of the asset-backed securities” within the meaning of “servicer” under Item 1101 of Regulation AB and does not perform the functions of a servicer for purposes of Item 1123 of Regulation AB.
• The asset representations reviewer under a pooling and servicing agreement has a limited obligation to review certain delinquent mortgage loans after a specified delinquency threshold has been met and the required percentage of certificateholders vote to direct a review of such delinquent mortgage loans, and has no obligation to collect or disburse funds in respect of the mortgage pool, to administer any of the underlying mortgage loans or to perform any servicing function. Consequently, the asset representations reviewer under a pooling and servicing agreement does not participate in the servicing function for purposes of Item 1122 of Regulation AB, is not responsible for the “management or collection of the pool assets or making allocations or distributions to holders of the asset-backed securities” within the meaning of “servicer” under Item 1101 of Regulation AB and does not perform the functions of a servicer for purposes of Item 1123 of Regulation AB.
• NCB, FSB, as NCB master servicer and co-op special servicer under the BANK 2017-BNK7 pooling and servicing agreement, only has obligations in respect of certain mortgage loans sold to the BANK 2017-BNK7 securitization trust by NCB, FSB and has no obligations with respect to the 222 Second Street mortgage loan and therefore in such capacity does not constitute a reporting “servicing function participant” for purposes of Item 1122 of Regulation AB, as specified in the Instruction 3 to Item 1122, and does not constitute a reporting “servicer” for purposes of Item 1123 of Regulation AB, as specified in the Instruction to Item 1123.
• Rialto Capital Advisors, LLC is the special servicer under the BANK 2017-BNK7 pooling and servicing agreement, pursuant to which the 222 Second Street mortgage loan is serviced. Because Rialto Capital Advisors, LLC is not the BANK 2017-BNK8 special servicer, is not affiliated with any sponsor and services only the 222 Second Street mortgage loan, which constitutes more than 5% but less than 10% of the mortgage pool, Rialto Capital Advisors, LLC, as BANK 2017-BNK7 special servicer, constitutes a reporting “servicing function participant” for purposes of Item 1122 of Regulation AB, as specified in the Instruction 3 to Item 1122, but does not constitute a reporting “servicer” for purposes of Item 1123 of Regulation AB, as specified in the Instruction to Item 1123.
• Aegon USA Realty Advisors, LLC is the special servicer under the BXP 2017-CC trust and servicing agreement, pursuant to which the Colorado Center mortgage loan is serviced. Because Aegon USA Realty Advisors, LLC is not the BANK 2017-BNK8 special servicer, is not affiliated with any sponsor and services only the Colorado Center mortgage loan, which constitutes more than 5% but less than 10% of the mortgage pool, Aegon USA Realty Advisors, LLC, as BXP 2017-CC special servicer, constitutes a reporting “servicing function participant” for purposes of Item 1122 of Regulation AB, as specified in the Instruction 3 to Item 1122, but does not constitute a reporting “servicer” for purposes of Item 1123 of Regulation AB, as specified in the Instruction to Item 1123.
• KeyBank National Association is the special servicer under the CGCMT 2017-P8 pooling and servicing agreement, pursuant to which the Pleasant Prairie Premium Outlets mortgage loan is serviced. Because KeyBank National Association is not the BANK 2017-BNK8 special servicer, is not affiliated with any sponsor and services only the Pleasant Prairie Premium Outlets mortgage loan, which constitutes less than 5% of the mortgage pool, KeyBank National Association, as CGCMT 2017-P8 special servicer, does not constitute a reporting “servicing function participant” for purposes of Item 1122 of Regulation AB, as specified in the Instruction 3 to Item 1122, and does not constitute a reporting “servicer” for purposes of Item 1123 of Regulation AB, as specified in the Instruction to Item 1123.
• Citibank, N.A., as certificate administrator under the CGCMT 2017-P8 pooling and servicing agreement, pursuant to which the Pleasant Prairie Premium Outlets mortgage loan is serviced, engaged U.S. Bank National Association to perform the related custodial services with respect to the Pleasant Prairie Premium Outlets mortgage loan, and U.S. Bank National Association is performing all such custodial services pursuant to the CGCMT 2017-P8 pooling and servicing agreement. Because U.S. Bank National Association is not the BANK 2017-BNK8 custodian, is not affiliated with any sponsor and services only the Pleasant Prairie Premium Outlets mortgage loan, which constitutes less than 5% of the mortgage pool, U.S. Bank National Association, as a CGCMT 2017-P8 servicing function participant, does not constitute a reporting “servicing function participant” for purposes of Item 1122 of Regulation AB, as specified in the Instruction 3 to Item 1122, and does not constitute a reporting “servicer” for purposes of Item 1123 of Regulation AB, as specified in the Instruction to Item 1123.
In addition, each of the following parties engaged the services of certain servicing function participants and sub-servicers for the reporting period, as set forth below:
• Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as master servicer, engaged the services of CoreLogic Commercial Real Estate Services, Inc. and National Tax Search, LLC, in each case as a servicing function participant in respect of the entire mortgage pool for the reporting period.
• Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as master servicer under the BANK 2017-BNK7 pooling and servicing agreement, pursuant to which the 222 Second Street mortgage loan is serviced, engaged the services of CoreLogic Commercial Real Estate Services, Inc. and National Tax Search, LLC, in each case as a servicing function participant in respect of the 222 Second Street mortgage loan for the reporting period.
• Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as master servicer under the BXP 2017-CC trust and servicing agreement, pursuant to which the Colorado Center mortgage loan is serviced, engaged the services of CoreLogic Commercial Real Estate Services, Inc. and National Tax Search, LLC, in each case as a servicing function participant in respect of the Colorado Center mortgage loan for the reporting period.
• Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as master servicer and special servicer under the MSSG 2017-237P trust and servicing agreement, pursuant to which the 237 Park Avenue mortgage loan is serviced, engaged the services of CoreLogic Commercial Real Estate Services, Inc. and National Tax Search, LLC, in each case as a servicing function participant in respect of the 237 Park Avenue mortgage loan for the reporting period.
• Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as master servicer under the CGCMT 2017-P8 pooling and servicing agreement, pursuant to which the Pleasant Prairie Premium Outlets mortgage loan is serviced, engaged the services of CoreLogic Commercial Real Estate Services, Inc. and National Tax Search, LLC, in each case as a servicing function participant in respect of the Pleasant Prairie Premium Outlets mortgage loan for the reporting period.
• Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as master servicer under the GSMS 2017-GS8 pooling and servicing agreement, pursuant to which the Cabela’s Industrial Portfolio mortgage loan is serviced, engaged the services of CoreLogic Commercial Real Estate Services, Inc. and National Tax Search, LLC, in each case as a servicing function participant in respect of the Cabela’s Industrial Portfolio mortgage loan for the reporting period.

Item 1112(b) of Regulation AB, Significant Obligor Financial Information.
Not applicable.
Item 1114(b)(2) of Regulation AB, Significant Enhancement Provider Financial Information.
No entity or group of affiliated entities provides any enhancement or other support for the certificates as described under Item 1114 (a) of Regulation AB.
Item 1115(b) of Regulation AB, Certain Derivatives Instruments (Financial Information).

Item 1117 of Regulation AB, Legal Proceedings.
The registrant knows of no legal proceeding pending against the sponsors, depositor, trustee, issuing entity, servicer contemplated by Item 1108(a)(3) of Regulation AB, originator contemplated by Item 1110(b) of Regulation AB, or other party contemplated by Item 1100(d)(1) of Regulation AB, or of which any property of the foregoing is the subject, that is material to security holders, other than as disclosed in the prospectus of the issuing entity filed in a 424(b)(2) filing dated November 15, 2017, and other than as follows:
Since June 18, 2014, a group of institutional investors have 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 of New York against Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., (“Wells Fargo Bank”) in its capacity as trustee for certain residential mortgage backed securities (“RMBS”) trusts. The complaints against Wells Fargo Bank alleged that the trustee caused losses to investors and asserted causes of action based upon, among other things, the trustee's alleged failure to: (i) 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 included money damages in an unspecified amount, reimbursement of expenses, and equitable relief. Wells Fargo Bank has reached an agreement, in which it denies any wrongdoing, to resolve these claims on a classwide basis for the 271 RMBS trusts currently at issue. The settlement agreement is subject to court approval. Separate lawsuits against Wells Fargo Bank making similar allegations filed by certain other institutional investors concerning 57 RMBS trusts in New York federal and state court are not covered by the agreement. With respect to the foregoing litigations, Wells Fargo Bank believes 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 RMBS trusts.
Item 1119 of Regulation AB, Affiliations and Certain Relationships and Related Transactions.
In addition to the information regarding this Item that has been disclosed in the prospectus of the issuing entity filed in a 424(b)(2) filing dated November 15, 2017, (i) Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, the master servicer under the GSMS 2017-GS8 pooling and servicing agreement, pursuant to which the Cabela’s Industrial Portfolio mortgage loan is serviced, is also the BANK 2017-BNK8 master servicer and the master servicer under each Outside Pooling and Servicing Agreement, pursuant to which the outside serviced mortgage loans are currently serviced; (ii) Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, the special servicer under the GSMS 2017-GS8 pooling and servicing agreement, pursuant to which the Cabela’s Industrial Portfolio mortgage loan is serviced, is also the BANK 2017-BNK8 special servicer; and (iii) Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, the custodian under the GSMS 2017-GS8 pooling and servicing agreement, pursuant to which the Cabela’s Industrial Portfolio mortgage loan is serviced, is also the BANK 2017-BNK8 custodian and the custodian under each Outside Pooling and Servicing Agreement (other than the CGCMT 2017-P8 pooling and servicing agreement) pursuant to which the outside serviced mortgage loans (other than the Pleasant Prairie Premium Outlets mortgage loan) are currently serviced.
Item 1122 of Regulation AB, Compliance with Applicable Servicing Criteria.
The reports on assessment of compliance with the servicing criteria for asset-backed securities and the related attestation reports on such assessments of compliance are attached hereto under Item 15.
The report on assessment of compliance with applicable servicing criteria furnished pursuant to Item 1122 of Regulation AB by Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank National Association discloses that a material instance of noncompliance occurred, as described below:
Material Instance of Noncompliance
In certain instances, the Schedule AL Files (Item 1125 of Regulation AB) were not reported in accordance with the terms specified in the transaction agreements, in conflict with Item 1122(d)(3)(i): “Reports to investors, including those to be filed with the Commission, are maintained in accordance with the transaction agreements and applicable Commission requirements. Specifically, such reports: (A) Are prepared in accordance with timeframes and other terms set forth in the transaction agreements”. The noncompliance consisted of omitted or inaccurately reported numbers due to the following: (1) the initial setup files contained information at the asset level, and Midland was required to manually compile the information to present it at the loan level as required by Schedule AL; and (2) certain reporting requirements required manual processing by Midland, including the use of various data computation formulas, quality control checks and analysis.
The identified instances did not involve the servicing of assets included in this securitization.
Steps Taken to Remedy the Material Instance of Noncompliance
Midland is currently remediating the Schedule AL reporting for the CMBS transactions found to be incorrect, and will be making improvements to its systems, processes and procedures to support its Schedule AL reporting obligations
