EXPLANATORY NOTES
The Kalahari Resort and Convention Center Mortgage Loan and the Saint
Louis Galleria Mortgage Loan, which constituted approximately 9.0% and
9.0%, respectively, of the asset pool of the issuing entity as of its cut-off
date, are each an asset of the issuing entity and are each part of a loan
combination that includes the Kalahari Resort and Convention Center
Mortgage Loan or the Saint Louis Galleria Mortgage Loan which are assets
of the issuing entity and one other pari passu loan, which is not an asset of
the issuing entity. These loan combinations, including the Kalahari Resort
and Convention Center Mortgage Loan and the Saint Louis Galleria
Mortgage Loan, are being serviced and administered pursuant to the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement, which is incorporated by reference as
Exhibit 4.1 to this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Wells Fargo Bank,
National Association is the master servicer under the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement. The responsibilities of Wells Fargo Bank, National
Association, as primary servicer of each of these loan combinations with
respect to the issuing entity, are subsumed within its responsibilities as
master servicer under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. Thus, the
servicer compliance statement provided by Wells Fargo Bank, National
Association, as master servicer under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement,
encompasses its roles as both master servicer and primary servicer with
respect to these loan combinations.
The Exhibit Index describes exhibits provided by certain parties (in their
capacities indicated on the Exhibit Index) with respect to the 175 West
Jackson Mortgage Loan, which constituted approximately 8.1% of the asset
pool of the issuing entity as of its cut-off date. The 175 West Jackson
Mortgage Loan is an asset of the issuing entity and is part of a loan
combination that includes the 175 West Jackson Mortgage Loan and one
other pari passu loan, which is not an asset of the issuing entity. The other
pari passu portion of the loan combination was securitized in the COMM
2013-CCRE12 Mortgage Trust transaction, Commission File Number 333-
184376-09 (the "COMM 2013-CCRE12 Transaction"). This loan
combination, including the 175 West Jackson Mortgage Loan, is being
serviced and administered pursuant to the pooling and servicing agreement
for the COMM 2013-CCRE12 Transaction, which is incorporated by
reference as Exhibit 4.2 to this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Wells Fargo
Bank, National Association is the master servicer under the pooling and
servicing agreement for the COMM 2013-CCRE12 Transaction. The
responsibilities of Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as primary
servicer of this loan combination with respect to the issuing entity, are
subsumed within its responsibilities as master servicer under the pooling
and servicing agreement for the COMM 2013-CCRE12 Transaction. Thus,
the servicer compliance statement provided by Wells Fargo Bank, National
Association, as master servicer under such pooling and servicing
agreement, encompasses its roles as both master servicer and primary
servicer with respect to this loan combination.
The Exhibit Index describes exhibits provided by certain parties (in their
capacities indicated on the Exhibit Index) with respect to the 60 Hudson
Street Mortgage Loan, which constituted approximately 11.3% of the asset
pool of the issuing entity as of its cut-off date. The 60 Hudson Street
Mortgage Loan is an asset of the issuing entity and is part of a loan
combination that includes the 60 Hudson Street Mortgage Loan and one
other pari passu loan, which is not an asset of the issuing entity. This loan
combination, including the 60 Hudson Street Mortgage Loan, was serviced
under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement for the issuing entity prior to
the closing of the securitization of the other pari passu portion of the 60
Hudson Street loan combination in the COMM 2014-CCRE14 Mortgage
Trust transaction, Commission File Number 333-184376-11 (the "COMM
2014-CCRE14 Transaction"). After the closing of the COMM 2014-
CCRE14 Transaction on January 22, 2014, this loan combination, including
the 60 Hudson Street Mortgage Loan was, and will continue to be, serviced
and administered pursuant to the pooling and servicing agreement with
respect to the COMM 2014-CCRE14 Transaction, which is incorporated by
reference as Exhibit 4.3 to this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Wells Fargo
Bank, National Association is the master servicer under the pooling and
servicing agreement for the COMM 2014-CCRE14 Transaction. The
responsibilities of Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as primary
servicer of this loan combination with respect to the issuing entity, are
subsumed within its responsibilities as master servicer under the pooling
and servicing agreement for the COMM 2014-CCRE14 Transaction. Thus,
the servicer compliance statement provided by Wells Fargo Bank, National
Association, as master servicer under such pooling and servicing
agreement, encompasses its roles as both master servicer and primary
servicer with respect to this loan combination.
Wells Fargo Bank, National Association is the master servicer and special
servicer of the mortgage loans serviced under the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement, the primary servicer of the 60 Hudson Street Mortgage Loan,
the special servicer of the Kalahari Resort and Convention Center Mortgage
Loan and the primary servicer and certificate administrator of the 175 West
Jackson 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.
U.S. Bank National Association acts as trustee of the mortgage loans
serviced under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the 60 Hudson Street
Mortgage Loan and the 175 West Jackson Mortgage Loan. Pursuant to the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the pooling and servicing agreement for
the COMM 2014-CCRE14 Transaction and the pooling and servicing
agreement for the COMM 2013-CCRE12 Transaction, the trustee is
required to provide an assessment of compliance with applicable servicing
criteria solely with respect to Item 1122(d)(2)(iii) of Regulation AB
(regarding advances of funds or guarantees regarding collections, cash
flows or distributions, and any interest or other fees charged for such
advances, are made, reviewed and approved as specified in the transaction
agreements). However, during the reporting period, the trustee did not
perform any servicing function with respect to the servicing criteria
specified in Item 1122(d)(2)(iii) of Regulation AB. The master servicer or
the special servicer, to the extent required, performed the servicing function
identified with respect to Item 1122(d)(2)(iii) of Regulation AB, and each
such party included Item 1122(d)(2)(iii) of Regulation AB in the
assessment of compliance with applicable servicing criteria and
accountant's attestation report for the subject transaction. As a result,
this Annual Report on Form 10-K does not include an assessment of
compliance with applicable servicing criteria of the trustee. One or more
other servicers of the mortgage loans serviced under the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement, the 60 Hudson Street Mortgage Loan and the 175
West Jackson Mortgage Loan have delivered one or more assessments of
compliance with respect to Item 1122(d)(2)(iii) of Regulation AB.
This Annual Report on Form 10-K includes assessments of compliance
with applicable servicing criteria and accountants' attestation reports from
CoreLogic Commercial Real Estate Services, Inc. and National Tax Search,
LLC. These entities were engaged by the master servicer under the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement (except with respect to those mortgage loans for
which KeyBank National Association is the primary servicer) and the
primary servicer of the 60 Hudson Street Mortgage Loan and the 175 West
Jackson 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 servicing functions are included within the servicing criteria set forth
in Items 1122(d)(4)(xi) and 1122(d)(4)(xii) of Regulation AB. Therefore,
under the principles-based definition of "servicer" set forth in Item 1101(j)
of Regulation AB that looks to the functions that an entity performs, these
vendors are "servicers" for the purposes of Item 1122 of Regulation AB.
See Compliance and Disclosure Interpretations, Section 301.01 (Item
1101(j)).
With respect to the pari passu loan combination that includes the 175 West
Jackson Mortgage Loan, the servicer compliance statement of LNR
Partners, LLC as special servicer of the 175 West Jackson Mortgage Loan,
listed on the Exhibit Index is omitted from this Annual Report on Form 10-
K as it is not required by Item 1123 of Regulation AB to be included on this
Annual Report on Form 10-K because it is an unaffiliated party that is not a
"servicer" that meets the criteria in Item 1108(a)(2)(i) through (iii) of
Regulation AB.

filed on December 19, 2013 pursuant to Rule 424(b)(5)) constitutes a

twelve-month period ended December 31, 2016.

enhancement or other support for the certificates within this transaction
as described under Item 1114(a) of Regulation AB.
Item 1115(b) of Regulation AB, Certain Derivatives Instruments (Financial
Information).
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 of Regulation AB.
Item 1117 of Regulation AB, Legal Proceedings.
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 Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas, as certificate administrator
and custodian, KeyBank National Association, as primary servicer, and Wells
Fargo Bank, National Association, as certificate administrator and custodian:
Deutsche Bank Trust Company Americas ("DBTCA") and Deutsche Bank National
Trust Company ("DBNTC") have been sued by investors in civil litigation
concerning their role as trustees of certain RMBS trusts.
On June 18, 2014, a group of investors, including funds managed by
Blackrock Advisors, LLC, PIMCO-Advisors, L.P., and others, filed a
derivative action against DBNTC and DBTCA in New York State Supreme Court
purportedly on behalf of and for the benefit of 544 private-label
RMBS trusts asserting claims for alleged violations of the U.S. Trust
Indenture Act of 1939 (TIA), breach of contract, breach of fiduciary duty
and negligence based on DBNTC and DBTCA's alleged failure to perform
their duties as trustees for the trusts. Plaintiffs subsequently
dismissed their state court complaint and filed a derivative and class
action complaint in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of
New York on behalf of and for the benefit of 564 private-label RMBS
trusts, which substantially overlapped with the trusts at issue in the
state court action. The complaint alleges that the trusts at issue have
suffered total realized collateral losses of U.S. $89.4 billion, but the
complaint does not include a demand for money damages in a sum certain.
DBNTC and DBTCA filed a motion to dismiss, and on January 19, 2016, the
court partially granted the motion on procedural grounds: as to the 500
trusts that are governed by Pooling and Servicing Agreements, the court
declined to exercise jurisdiction. The court did not rule on substantive
defenses asserted in the motion to dismiss. On March 22, 2016, plaintiffs
filed an amended complaint in federal court. In the amended complaint, in
connection with 62 trusts governed by indenture agreements, plaintiffs
assert claims for breach of contract, violation of the TIA, breach of
fiduciary duty, and breach of duty to avoid conflicts of interest. The
amended complaint alleges that the trusts at issue have suffered total
realized collateral losses of U.S. $9.8 billion, but the complaint does
not include a demand for money damages in a sum certain. On July 15,
2016, DBNTC and DBTCA filed a motion to dismiss the amended complaint. On
January 23, 2017, the court granted in part and denied in part DBNTC and
DBTCA's motion to dismiss. The court granted the motion to dismiss with
respect to plaintiffs' conflict-of-interest claim, thereby dismissing it,
and denied the motion to dismiss with respect to plaintiffs' breach of
contract claim (except as noted below) and claim for violation of the
TIA, thereby allowing those claims to proceed. On January 26, 2017, the
parties filed a joint stipulation and proposed order dismissing
plaintiffs' claim for breach of fiduciary duty. On January 27, 2017, the
court entered the parties' joint stipulation and ordered that plaintiffs'
claim for breach of fiduciary duty be dismissed. On February 3, 2017,
following a hearing concerning DBNTC and DBTCA's motion to dismiss on
February 2, 2017, the court issued a short form order dismissing (i)
plaintiffs' representation and warranty claims as to 21 trusts whose
originators and/or sponsors had entered bankruptcy and the deadline for
asserting claims against such originators and/or sponsors had passed as
of 2009 and (ii) plaintiffs' claims to the extent they were premised upon
any alleged pre-Event of Default duty to terminate servicers. Discovery
is ongoing.
On March 25, 2016, the BlackRock plaintiffs filed a state court action
against DBTCA in the Superior Court of California, Orange County with
respect to 513 trusts. On May 18, 2016, plaintiffs filed an amended
complaint with respect to 465 trusts, and included DBNTC as an additional
defendant. The amended complaint asserts three causes of action: breach
of contract; breach of fiduciary duty; and breach of the duty to avoid
conflicts of interest. Plaintiffs purport to bring the action on behalf
of themselves and all other current owners of certificates in the 465
trusts. The amended complaint alleges that the trusts at issue have
suffered total realized collateral losses of U.S. $75.7 billion, but does
not include a demand for money damages in a sum certain. On August 22,
2016, DBNTC and DBTCA filed a demurrer as to Plaintiffs' breach of
fiduciary duty cause of action and breach of the duty to avoid conflicts
of interest cause of action and motion to strike as to Plaintiffs' breach
of contract cause of action. On October 18, 2016, the court granted
DBNTC and DBTCA's demurrer, providing Plaintiffs with thirty days' leave
to amend, and denied DBNTC and DBTCA's motion to strike. Plaintiffs did
not further amend their complaint and, on December 19, 2016, DBNTC and
DBTCA filed an answer to the amended complaint. Discovery is ongoing.
On December 30, 2015, IKB International, S.A. in Liquidation and IKB
Deutsche Industriebank A.G. (collectively, "IKB"), as an investor in 37
RMBS trusts, filed a summons with notice in the Supreme Court of the
State of New York, New York County, against DBNTC and DBTCA as trustees
of the trusts. On May 27, 2016, IKB served its complaint asserting claims
for breach of contract, breach of fiduciary duty, breach of duty
to avoid conflicts of interest, violation of New York's Streit Act,
violation of the Trust Indenture Act, violation of Regulation AB, and
violation of Section 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code. IKB alleges that
DBNTC and DBTCA are liable for over U.S. $268 million in damages. On
October 5, 2016, DBNTC and DBTCA, together with several other trustees
defending lawsuits by IKB, filed a joint motion to dismiss. On January 6,
2017, IKB filed a notice of discontinuance, voluntarily dismissing with
prejudice all claims as to three trusts. As of January 17, 2017, DBNTC
and DBTCA's motion to dismiss has been briefed and is awaiting decision
by the court. Certain limited discovery is permitted to go forward while
the motion to dismiss is pending.
It is DBTCA's belief that it has no pending legal proceedings (including,
based on DBTCA's present evaluation, the litigation disclosed in the
foregoing paragraphs) that would materially affect its ability to perform
its duties as Certificate Administrator and Custodian under the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement for this transaction and the pooling and
servicing agreement for the COMM 2014-CCRE14 Transaction.
On February 23, 2016, a certificate holder of the J.P. Morgan Chase
Commercial Mortgage Securities Trust, Series 2007-CIBC18 (the "Trust")
filed suit in the Supreme Court of New York, County of New York, against
KeyBank National Association and Berkadia Commercial Mortgage LLC
(collectively, the "Servicers"). The suit was filed derivatively on
behalf of the Trust. The action was brought in connection with the
Servicers' determination of the fair value of a loan, secured by the
Bryant Park Hotel in New York City, held by the Trust and sold to an
assignee of the Trust's directing certificate holder, pursuant to an
exercise of the fair value option set forth in the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement governing the Trust. There can be no assurances as
to the outcome of the action or the possible impact of the litigation
on the Servicers. Both Servicers deny liability, believe that they
performed their obligations in accordance with the terms of the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement, and have contested the claims asserted against
them, filing a motion to dismiss the case. On November 28, 2016, the
Servicers' motion to dismiss was granted. The plaintiff certificate
holder has filed a notice of appeal, and the appeal is pending.
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, 2014, to increase the number
of trusts to 284 RMBS trusts. On November 24, 2014, the plaintiffs 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") against Wells Fargo Bank,
alleging claims against the bank in its capacity as trustee for 274 RMBS
trusts (the "Federal Court Complaint"). In December 2014, 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, Bank of New York
Mellon and US Bank) by a group of institutional investor plaintiffs. The
Federal Court Complaint against Wells Fargo Bank alleges that the trustee
caused losses to investors and asserts 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 includes money damages in an
unspecified amount, reimbursement of expenses, and equitable relief.
Other cases alleging similar causes of action have been filed against
Wells Fargo Bank and other trustees in the District Court by RMBS
investors in these and other transactions, and these cases against 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, an order was entered
in connection with the Federal Court Complaint in which the District
Court declined 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"). Motions to dismiss all of the actions are
pending except for the recently filed State Court Complaint. There can
be no assurances as to the outcome of the litigations, or the possible
impact of the litigations on the trustee or the RMBS trusts. However,
Wells Fargo 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 any losses to investors, and that it has meritorious
defenses, and it intends to contest the plaintiffs' claims vigorously.
