These loan combinations, including the Bank of America Plaza Mortgage Loan and the Columbus Square Portfolio 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 Stamford Plaza Portfolio Mortgage Loan, which constituted approximately 6.7% of the asset pool of the issuing entity as of its cut-off date. The Stamford Plaza Portfolio Mortgage Loan is an asset of the issuing entity and is part of a loan combination that includes the Stamford Plaza Portfolio Mortgage Loan and three other pari passu loans, which are not assets of the issuing entity. A pari passu portion of the loan combination was securitized in the GS Mortgage Securities Trust 2014-GC24 transaction, Commission File Number 333-191331-05 (the “GSMS 2014-GC24 Transaction”). This loan combination, including the Stamford Plaza Portfolio Mortgage Loan, is being serviced and administered pursuant to the pooling and servicing agreement for the GSMS 2014-GC24 Transaction, which is incorporated by reference as Exhibit 4.2 to this Annual Report on Form 10-K.

(as successor to NCB, FSB) is the NCB master servicer) and the certificate administrator of the mortgage loans serviced under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and the Stamford Plaza Portfolio Mortgage Loan. These mortgage loans, in the aggregate, constituted more than 10% of the asset pool of the issuing entity as of its cut-off date. Thus, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, in the capacities described above, is a “servicer,” as defined in Item 1108(a)(2)(iii) of Regulation AB, with respect to these mortgage loans. The assessments of compliance with applicable servicing criteria, accountants’ attestation reports and servicer compliance statements delivered by Wells Fargo, National Association in the capacities described above are listed in the Exhibit Index.

Therefore, the Depositor included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K servicer compliance statements for National Cooperative Bank, N.A. pursuant to Item 1123. Because National Cooperative Bank, N.A. is servicing less than 5% of the pool assets, assessments of compliance with applicable servicing criteria andprovide an accountants’ attestation reports pursuant to Item 1122 of Regulation AB are not required by Regulation AB. As the attestation made in the servicer compliance statement required by Item 1123 relate to a review of the servicing activities of National Cooperative Bank, N.A. under the applicable servicing agreement, and that review was conducted in conjunction with the servicer’s preparation of its assessment of compliance with applicable servicing criteria thatsolely 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 the accompanying accountants’accountant’s attestation report are included infor the subject transaction. As a result, this Annual Report on Form 10-K fordoes not include an assessment of compliance with applicable servicing criteria of the saketrustee. One or more other servicers of completeness.the Stamford Plaza Portfolio Mortgage Loan have delivered one or more assessments of compliance with respect to Item 1122(d)(2)(iii) of Regulation AB.
Wilmington Trust, National Association acts as trustee of the mortgage loans serviced under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

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 accountants’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 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 general master servicer of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement (except with respect to those mortgage loans for which PGIM Real Estate Loan Services, Inc. (formerly known as Prudential Asset Resources, Inc.) is the primary servicer or National Cooperative Bank, N.A. is the master servicer) and the primary servicer under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement (solely with respect to National Tax Search, LLC) 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.

See Compliance and Disclosure Interpretations, Section 301.01 (Item 1101(j)).
The assessment of compliance with applicable servicing criteria, accountants’ attestation report and servicer compliance statement of the certificate administrator of the Stamford Plaza Portfolio Mortgage Loan is 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.

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 Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as certificate administrator, as custodian and as custodian.trustee.
SinceBeginning on 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. In November 2018, Wells Fargo Bank has reached an agreement, in which it deniesdenied any wrongdoing, to resolve thesesuch claims on a classwide basis for the 271 RMBS trusts currently at issue. TheOn May 6, 2019, the court entered an order approving the settlement agreement is subject to court approval.agreement. Separate lawsuits against Wells Fargo Bank making similar allegations filed by certain other institutional investors concerning 57several RMBS trusts in New York federal and state court are not covered by the settlement agreement. In addition to the foregoing cases, in August 2014 and August 2015 Nomura Credit & Capital Inc. (“Nomura”) and Natixis Real Estate Holdings, LLC (“Natixis”) filed a total of seven third-party complaints against Wells Fargo Bank in New York state court. In the underlying first-party actions, Nomura and Natixis have been sued for alleged breaches of representations and warranties made in connection with residential mortgage-backed securities sponsored by them. In the third-party actions, Nomura and Natixis allege that Wells Fargo Bank, as master servicer, primary servicer or securities administrator, failed to notify Nomura and Natixis of their own breaches, failed to properly oversee the primary servicers, and failed to adhere to accepted servicing practices. Natixis additionally alleges that Wells Fargo Bank failed to perform default oversight duties. Wells Fargo Bank has asserted counterclaims alleging that Nomura and Natixis failed to provide Wells Fargo Bank notice of their representation and warranty breaches. With respect to each of 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 related RMBS trusts.
Item 1119 of Regulation AB, Affiliations and Certain Relationships and Related Transactions.
The information regarding this Item has been previously provided in a prospectus supplement of the Registrant relating to the issuing entity filed on September 30, 2014 pursuant to Rule 424(b)(5).
Item 1122 of Regulation AB, Compliance with Applicable Servicing Criteria.
The reports on assessments of compliance with the servicing criteria for asset-backed securities and related attestation reports on such assessments of compliance with respect to the mortgage loans are attached hereto under Item 15 to this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Attached as Schedule III to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement incorporated by reference as Exhibit 4.1 to this Annual Report on Form 10-K is a chart identifying the entities participating in a servicing function for the transaction responsible for each applicable servicing criteria set forth in Item 1122(d).
The reports on assessments of compliance with the servicing criteria for asset-backed securities and related attestation reports on such assessments of compliance with respect to the Stamford Plaza Portfolio Mortgage Loan, which is being serviced and administered pursuant to the pooling and servicing agreement for the GSMS 2014-GC24 Transaction, are attached hereto under Item 15 to this Annual Report on Form 10-K. Attached as Exhibit O to the pooling and servicing agreement for the GSMS 2014-GC24 Transaction incorporated by reference as Exhibit 4.2 to this Annual Report on Form 10-K is a chart identifying the entities participating in a servicing function for the GSMS 2014-GC24 Transaction responsible for each applicable servicing criteria set forth in Item 1122(d).
The report on assessment of compliance with applicable servicing criteria furnished pursuant to Item 1122 of Regulation AB by CWCapital Asset Management LLC (“CWCAM”) discloses that a material instance of noncompliance occurred, as described below:
Material Instance of Noncompliance:
1122(d)(2)(vii): “Reconciliations are prepared on a monthly basis for all asset-backed securities related bank accounts, including custodial accounts and related bank clearing accounts. These reconciliations: (A) are mathematically accurate; (B) are prepared within 30 calendar days after the bank statement cutoff date, or such other number of days specified in the transaction agreements; (C) are reviewed and approved by someone other than the person who prepared the reconciling items; and (D) contain explanations for reconciling items. These reconciling items are resolved within 90 calendar days of their original identification, or such other number of days specified in the transaction agreements.”
The instance of material noncompliance, for the reporting period included a failure to complete the required bank reconciliations within 30 calendar days after the bank statement cutoff date. In five of the twelve months related to the reporting period, the required reconciliations were not completed within the 30 calendar days requirement as follows:
February 2018: bank reconciliations were prepared on June 22, 2018
March 2018: bank reconciliations were prepared on May 1, 2018
September 2018: bank reconciliations were prepared on November 6, 2018
November 2018: bank reconciliations were prepared on February 19, 2019
December 2018: bank reconciliations were prepared on February 6, 2019
The identified instances did involve the servicing of assets included in this securitization.
Steps Taken to Remedy the Material Instance of Noncompliance
In response to the lack of adherence to company policy and procedures, CWCAM’s Compliance Committee reviewed the reasons for noncompliance and added two additional procedures to supplement its existing procedures:
1) the accounting department has added the completion of bank account reconciliations within 30 calendar days to its monthly closing checklist, which is reviewed and signed off by a CWCAM officer; and
2) the Chief Financial Officer has set up a monthly electronic reminder requiring that the completed bank reconciliations be forwarded to the CFO for an additional layer of review.
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.
