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 following material instance of non-compliance has been disclosed by Wells
Fargo, National Association in its capacity as Certificate Administrator:
Material Instances of Noncompliance by the Company
Management's assessment of compliance with the Applicable Servicing Criteria
set forth by the Securities and Exchange Commission in paragraph (d) of Item
1122 of Regulation AB as of December 31, 2011 and for the Period, disclosed
that material noncompliance occurred with servicing criteria 1122(d)(3)(i)(B)
and 1122(d)(3)(ii), as fol1ows:
* With respect to servicing criterion 1122(d)(3)(i)(B), certain reports to
investors did not provide information calculated in accordance with the terms
specified in the transaction agreements.
* With respect to servicing criterion 1122(d)(3)(ii), certain amounts due to
investors were not allocated and remitted in accordance with timeframes,
distribution priority and other terms set forth in the transaction agreements.
Management's Discussion on Material Instances of Noncompliance by the Company
Disclosure: During the Period, (i) certain amounts allocated and remitted to
investors were not calculated in accordance with the terms specified in the
transaction agreements, and (ii) certain reports to investors did not provide
information calculated in accordance with the terms specified in the
transaction agreements with respect to waterfall calculations and/or reporting
disclosures. As part of its assessment of compliance with the Applicable
Servicing Criteria, Management identified that in certain instances the
material noncompliance reported in Schedule A hereto was attributable to
errors in the models impacting payments to investors and reporting
disclosures, including those for a subset of RMBS transactions in the Platform
that contain multi-group features, herein referred to as "Subject
Transactions". As Management has determined the modeling errors for Subject
Transactions to be the most significant issue resulting in material instances
of noncompliance, Management's analysis of this issue's impact on the Platform
for the Period is described below in the "Scope".
Scope: Management reviewed all of the distributions to investors during the
Period for the Subject Transactions and all of the models used to prepare
reports to investors for the Subject Transactions and determined that (i) the
total dollar amount of payment errors in excess of $5,000 for any particular
distribution during the Period when aggregating the payment errors for each
affected CUSIP, herein referred to as "Disclosed Errors", for the Subject
Transactions represented approximately one one-thousandth of one percent
(.001%) of the total dollar amount allocated and remitted to investors in all
transactions across the Platform during the Period, (ii) the tranches with
payment errors above $200 for the Subject Transactions with Disclosed Errors
comprised less than one-tenth of one percent (0.1%) of the number of tranches
in the Platform as of December 31, 2011, (iii) there were 17 Subject
Transactions with Disclosed Errors comprising less than one percent (1%) of
the total number of transactions in the Platform as of December 31, 2011, and
(iv) 340 of the Subject Transactions, including those transactions with
Disclosed Errors, required model revisions.
Remediation: For each of the instances of material noncompliance identified by
Management, including Subject Transactions, adjustments have been made to the
waterfall models, as applicable so that the models, in all material respects,
are expected to prepare the investor reports in accordance with the terms
specified in the transaction agreements. Revisions also have been made so that
the investor reports associated with the instances of material noncompliance
are expected to provide information that is, in all material respects,
calculated in accordance with the terms specified in the transaction
agreements.
The following material instance of non-compliance has been disclosed by Wells
Fargo, National Association in its capacity as Master Servicer for Commercial
Mortgage-Backed Securities:
Material Instances of Noncompliance by the Company
Management's assessment of compliance with the Applicable Servicing Criteria
set forth by the Securities and Exchange Commission in paragraph (d) of Item
1122 of Regulation AB as of December 31, 2011 and for the Period, disclosed
that material noncompliance occurred with servicing criteria 1122(d)(4)(i), as
fol1ows:
Management's Discussion on Material Instances of Noncompliance by the Company
With respect to certain commercial mortgage loans, the Company failed to
timely file continuation statements for certain Uniform Commercial Code
("UCC") financing statements as required by the transaction agreements,
thereby causing such UCC financing statements to lapse. As a result of the
noncompliance described above, certain non-possessory security interests in
certain types of personal property collateral for these loans became
unperfected and, as a result, subject to a possible loss of priority.
Remediation Promptly following the Company's discovery of such omissions as
part of its normal internal compliance review process, the Company filed new
UCC financing statements in all cases. In order to reduce the possibility of
similar occurrences in the future, the Company has provided enhanced training
to the responsible personnel, improved the quality of the relevant computer
data feeds and generally tightened its procedures for the filing of
continuation statements.
