Item 1117 of Regulation AB, Legal Proceedings. On or about December 23, 2009, the Federal Home Loan Bank of Seattle (the "FHLB-Seattle") filed a complaint in the Superior Court for the State of Washington (case number 09-2-46348-4 SEA) against the depositor, Redwood Trust, Inc., Morgan Stanley & Co., and Morgan Stanley Capital I, Inc. (collectively, the "FHLB-Seattle Defendants") alleging that the FHLB-Seattle Defendants made false or misleading statements in offering materials for a mortgage pass-through certificate (the "Seattle Certificate") issued in the Sequoia Mortgage Trust 2005-4 securitization transaction (the "2005-4 RMBS") and purchased by the FHLB-Seattle. Specifically, the complaint alleges that the alleged misstatements concern the (1) loan-to-value ratio of mortgage loans and the appraisals of the properties that secured loans supporting the 2005-4 RMBS, (2) occupancy status of the properties, (3) standards used to underwrite the loans, and (4) ratings assigned to the Seattle Certificate. The FHLB-Seattle alleges claims under the Securities Act of Washington (Section 21.20.005, et seq.) and seeks to rescind the purchase of the Seattle Certificate and to collect interest on the original purchase price at the statutory interest rate of 8% per annum from the date of original purchase (net of interest received) as well as attorneys' fees and costs. The Seattle Certificate was issued with an original principal amount of approximately $133 million, and, as of December 31, 2012, the FHLB-Seattle had received approximately $108 million of principal and $10.9 million of interest payments in respect of the Seattle Certificate. As of December 31, 2012, the Seattle Certificate had a remaining outstanding principal amount of approximately $25 million. The claims were subsequently dismissed for lack of personal jurisdiction as to the depositor and Redwood Trust. The depositor and Redwood Trust agreed to indemnify the underwriters of the 2005-4 RMBS for certain losses and expenses they might incur as a result of claims made against them relating to this RMBS, including, without limitation, certain legal expenses. The FHLB-Seattle's claims against the underwriters of this RMBS were not dismissed and remain pending. Regardless of the outcome of this litigation, the depositor and Redwood Trust could incur a loss as a result of these indemnities. On or about July 15, 2010, The Charles Schwab Corporation ("Schwab") filed a complaint in the Superior Court for the State of California in San Francisco (case number CGC-10-501610) against the depositor and 26 other defendants (collectively, the "Schwab Defendants") alleging that the Schwab Defendants made false or misleading statements in offering materials for various residential mortgage-backed securities sold or issued by the Schwab Defendants. With respect to the depositor, Schwab alleges that the depositor made false or misleading statements in offering materials for a mortgage pass-through certificate (the "Schwab Certificate") issued in the 2005-4 RMBS and purchased by Schwab. Specifically, the complaint alleges that the misstatements for the 2005-4 RMBS concern the (1) loan-to-value ratio of mortgage loans and the appraisals of the properties that secured loans supporting the 2005-4 RMBS, (2) occupancy status of the properties, (3) standards used to underwrite the loans, and (4) ratings assigned to the Schwab Certificate. Schwab alleges a claim for negligent misrepresentation under California state law and seeks unspecified damages and attorneys' fees and costs. The Schwab Certificate was issued with an original principal amount of approximately $14.8 million, and, as of December 31, 2012, Schwab had received approximately $12 million of principal and $1.3 million of interest payments in respect of the Schwab Certificate. As of December 31, 2012, the Schwab Certificate had a remaining outstanding principal amount of approximately $2.8 million. The depositor has denied Schwab's allegations. The depositor believes that this case is without merit, and intends to defend the action vigorously. The depositor and Redwood Trust agreed to indemnify the underwriters of the 2005-4 RMBS, which underwriters are also named defendants in this action, for certain losses and expenses they might incur as a result of claims made against them relating to this RMBS, including, without limitation, certain legal expenses. Regardless of the outcome of this litigation, the depositor and Redwood Trust could incur a loss as a result of these indemnities. On or about October 15, 2010, the Federal Home Loan Bank of Chicago ("FHLB-Chicago") filed a complaint in the Circuit Court of Cook County, Illinois (case number 10-CH-45033) against the depositor and more than 45 other named defendants (collectively, the "FHLB-Chicago Defendants") alleging that the FHLB-Chicago Defendants made false or misleading statements in offering materials for various residential mortgage-backed securities sold or issued by the FHLB-Chicago Defendants or entities controlled by them. FHLB-Chicago subsequently amended the complaint to name Redwood Trust and another one of Redwood Trust's subsidiaries, RWT Holdings, Inc., as defendants. With respect to Redwood Trust, RWT Holdings, and the depositor, the FHLB-Chicago alleges that Redwood Trust, RWT Holdings, and the depositor made false or misleading statements in the offering materials for two mortgage pass-through certificates (the "Chicago Certificates") issued in the Sequoia Mortgage Trust 2006-1 securitization transaction (the "2006-1 RMBS") and purchased by the FHLB-Chicago. The complaint alleges that the alleged misstatements concern, among other things, the (1) loan-to-value ratio of mortgage loans and the appraisals of the properties that secured loans supporting the 2006-1 RMBS, (2) occupancy status of the properties, (3) standards used to underwrite the loans, (4) ratings assigned to the Chicago Certificates, and (5) due diligence performed on these mortgage loans. The FHLB-Chicago alleges claims under Illinois Securities Law (815 ILCS Sections 5/12(F)-(H)) and North Carolina Securities Law (N.C.G.S.A. Section 78A-8(2) & Section 78A-56(a)) as well as a claim for negligent misrepresentation under Illinois common law. On some of the causes of action, the FHLB-Chicago seeks to rescind the purchase of the Chicago Certificates and to collect interest on the original purchase prices at the statutory interest rate of 10% per annum from the dates of original purchase (net of interest received). On one cause of action, the FHLB-Chicago seeks unspecified damages. The FHLB-Chicago also seeks attorneys' fees and costs. The first of the Chicago Certificates was issued with an original principal amount of approximately $105 million and, at December 31, 2012, the FHLB Chicago had received approximately $68 million of principal and $23 million of interest payments in respect of this Chicago Certificate. As of December 31, 2012, this Chicago Certificate had a remaining outstanding principal amount of approximately $37 million. The second of the Chicago Certificates was issued with an original principal amount of approximately $379 million and, at December 31, 2012, the FHLB Chicago had received approximately $244 million of principal and $78 million of interest payments in respect of this Chicago Certificate. As of December 31, 2012, this Chicago Certificate had a remaining outstanding principal amount of approximately $133 million (after taking into account approximately $1.6 million of principal losses allocated to this Chicago Certificate). The depositor, Redwood Trust, and RWT Holdings have denied FHLB-Chicago's allegations. The depositor believes that this case is without merit, and the depositor intends to defend the action vigorously. The depositor and Redwood Trust agreed to indemnify the underwriters of the 2006-1 RMBS, which underwriters are also named defendants in this action, for certain losses and expenses they might incur as a result of claims made against them relating to this RMBS, including, without limitation, certain legal expenses. Regardless of the outcome of this litigation, the depositor and Redwood Trust could incur a loss as a result of these indemnities. The business of the sponsor, the depositor, the seller and their affiliates has included, and continues to include, activities relating to the acquisition and securitization of residential mortgage loans. In addition, the business of the sponsor has, in the past, included activities relating to the acquisition and securitization of debt obligations and other assets through the issuance of collateralized debt obligations (commonly referred to as CDO transactions). Because of their involvement in the securitization and CDO businesses, the sponsor, the depositor, the seller and their affiliates could become the subject of litigation relating to these businesses, including additional litigation of the type described above, and could also become the subject of governmental investigations, enforcement actions, or lawsuits and governmental authorities could allege that these entities violated applicable law or regulation in the conduct of their business. In fact, the sponsor and its affiliates have received, and responded to, information requests and subpoenas from two governmental authorities (one by the SEC relating to the sponsor's CDO business and one by the National Credit Union Administration relating to a residential mortgage securitization conducted by the sponsor and the depositor). It is possible that the sponsor, the depositor, the seller or their affiliates might not be successful in defending or responding to any litigation, governmental investigation or related action and any losses incurred as a result of the resolution of any such action or investigation could have a material adverse effect on the sponsor, the depositor, the seller or their affiliates. In any case, regardless of the merits of any allegation or legal action that may be brought against the sponsor, the depositor, the seller or their affiliates, or of their success in defending against such allegations or legal actions, the costs of defending against any such allegation or legal action may be significant or material and could have a material adverse effect on the sponsor, the depositor, the seller or their affiliates. Item 1119 of Regulation AB, Affiliations and Certain Relationships and Related Transactions. The seller and servicing administrator, the sponsor and the depositor are each wholly-owned subsidiaries of Redwood Trust, Inc. Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC, an underwriter, is an affiliate of DLJ Mortgage Capital, Inc. from which the depositor purchased some of the mortgage loans as to which First Republic Bank is the originator. The seller maintains a warehouse line of credit to finance its holdings of mortgage loans with each of an affiliate of Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC and an affiliate of Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, also an underwriter. The seller will use a portion of the proceeds of the sale of the certificates to repay outstanding debt under these warehouse lines of credit. Select Portfolio Servicing, Inc., a servicer of 14.83% by cut-off date stated principal balance of the mortgage loans, is an affiliate of Credit Suisse Securities (USA) LLC, and DLJ Mortgage Capital, Inc. owns the servicing rights to such mortgage loans. There is not currently, and there was not during the past two years, any material business relationship, agreement, arrangement, transaction or understanding that is or was entered into outside the ordinary course of business or is or was on terms other than would be obtained in an arm's length transaction with an unrelated third party, between (a) any of the seller, the sponsor, the depositor and the issuing entity on the one hand and (b) any of the trustee, any servicer, the custodian, the master servicer or either originator of the mortgage loans on the other hand. 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 registrant has prepared the Table below in connection with this transaction. The Table shows, in one compiled format, which entity participating in a servicing function for this transaction was assigned responsibility for each criterion in Item 1122(d). In the Table below, certain criteria are not applicable, given the structure of the offering, and accordingly no entity is assigned responsibility for such criteria. Also, U.S. Bank National Association ("U.S. Bank"), the trustee, does not participate in any servicing function for the transaction that is the subject of this 10-K filing. Therefore, there is no reference to U.S. Bank in the chart below; nor does this 10-K filing include any assessment or auditor report from U.S. Bank. Finally, any discrepancies between the chart below and the assessment of compliance exhibit provided by any party listed in the chart is explained by the fact that the chart is specific to the transaction that is the subject of this 10-K filing, whereas each party's respective assessment of compliance is issued on a platform basis and includes coverage of other additional transactions that are not the subject of this 10-K filing.

PHH Mortgage Corporation The assessment of compliance with applicable servicing criteria for the twelve months ended December 31, 2012, furnished pursuant to Item 1122 of Regulation AB by PHH Mortgage (the "2012 PHH Assessment") for its platform, discloses that material instances of noncompliance occurred with respect to the servicing criteria described in Item and 1122(d)(4)(vii) of Regulation AB. The 2012 PHH Assessment is attached to this Form 10-K/A as exhibit 33.3. 1122(d)(4)(vii) During the year ended December 31, 2012, the Asserting Party could not provide documentation to support that foreclosure and repossession procedures that were not concluded in accordance with the timelines in the transaction agreements were outside the control of the Asserting Party. PHH Mortgage Corporation does not believe that any of the subject loan transactions constituted a 'material instance of noncompliance' because each foreclosure proceeding delay was a permissible exception to the applicable published Fannie Mae foreclosure timeline. Accordingly, there are no issues for PHH Mortgage Corporation to remediate. Additionally, PHH Mortgage Corporation has reviewed its records and determined that it has not conducted foreclosure proceedings with respect to any of the mortgage loans included in this Sequoia transaction. The instances of noncompliance involving foreclosure and repossession procedures that were not concluded in accordance with the timelines in the transaction agreements were outside the control of PHH. The published Fannie Mae foreclosure timelines vary by state. PHH Mortgage Corporation reviewed each of the subject loan transactions in detail and concluded that, in each case, the delay in concluding foreclosure proceedings was permissible under Fannie Mae Servicing Guide Announcement SVC-2010-12 because the delay was due to reasons and circumstances outside the control of PHH Mortgage Corporation. These reasons and circumstances consisted of court delay, state mandated documentation change delay, investor delay, attorney error delay, title delay, bankruptcy delay, loss mitigation delay and contested foreclosure delay. The above-described delays have had no effect on the transactions involving the subject loans. None of the subject loans were included in this Sequoia transaction. Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. The assessment of compliance with applicable servicing criteria for the twelve months ended December 31, 2012, furnished pursuant to Item 1122 of Regulation AB by the Corporate Trust Services division of Wells Fargo Bank (the "2012 Wells Assessment") for its platform, discloses that material instances of noncompliance occurred with respect to the servicing criteria described in Items 1122(d)(3)(i)(B) and 1122(d)(3)(ii) of Regulation AB. The 2012 Wells Assessment is attached to this Form 10-K/A as exhibit 33.7. There were no instances of noncompliance for the transaction to which this Form 10-K/A relates that led to Wells Fargo's determination that there was material instances of noncompliance at the platform level. 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, 2012 and for the Period, disclosed that material instances of noncompliance occurred with respect to the servicing criteria set forth in both of Items 1122(d)(3)(i)(B) and 1122(d)(3)(ii), as follows: * 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, Wells Fargo identified Payment Errors (as defined below) and Reporting Errors (as defined below) on certain residential mortgage-backed securities ("RMBS") transactions in the Platform. Although no individually identified error, in and of itself, was found to be material to the Platform, when the errors were considered in the aggregate, Management determined that, for Platform purposes, there were material instances of noncompliance with respect to both Items 1122(d)(3)(i)(B) and 1122(d)(3)(ii) of Regulation AB. For purposes of this Schedule B, the term "Payment Errors" means the identified payment errors that occurred during the Period and that, when considered in the aggregate, led to Management's determination that there was a material instance of noncompliance for the Platform with respect to Item 1122(d)(3)(i)(B) of Regulation AB. For purposes of this Schedule B, the term "Reporting Errors" means the identified reporting errors that occurred during the Period and that, when considered in the aggregate, led to Management's determination that there was a material instance of noncompliance for the Platform with respect to Item 1122(d)(3)(ii) of Regulation AB. The identified Payment Errors and Reporting Errors on such RMBS transactions were attributable to certain failures in processes relating to waterfall calculations and reporting that, although adapted over time, still insufficiently addressed the impact of the unprecedented levels of collateral degradation in RMBS transactions on the calculation of principal and interest payments and losses and associated investor reporting. Scope of the Material Instances of Noncompliance: The identified Payment Errors and Reporting Errors that led to Management's determination that material instances of noncompliance with respect to the Platform had occurred were limited to certain RMBS transactions in the Platform. There were no identified Payment Errors or Reporting Errors for non-RMBS transactions in the Platform which contributed to Management's determination that there were material instances of noncompliance for the Platform. In some instances, the identified Payment Errors which contributed to Management's determination that there were material instances of noncompliance for the Platform were also considered material to the transactions on which they occurred. None of the identified Reporting Errors which contributed to Management's determination that there were material instances of noncompliance for the Platform were considered material for a particular transaction. For all transactions in the Platform (including RMBS transactions with identified Payment Errors and Reporting Errors), Management delivered an Item 1123 certification to the extent it was required to do so pursuant to the requirements of the applicable transaction documents and Regulation AB. Where there was an identified Payment Error that was considered material for an individual transaction, the Item 1123 certification included a description of the nature and scope of such error. Remediation: Appropriate actions have been taken or are in the process of being taken to remediate the identified Payment Errors and Reporting Errors that led to Management's determination that material instances of noncompliance with respect to the Platform had occurred. Further, adjustments have been or will be made to the waterfall calculations and other operational processes and quality control measures applied to the RMBS transactions in the Platform to minimize the risk of future payment and reporting errors. For purposes of Wells Fargo's disclosure below, reference is made to the following defined terms. "2012 Assessment" means, with respect to its Platform, the assessment of compliance with applicable Item 1122(d) servicing criteria prepared by management of Wells Fargo relating to the 2012 Reporting Period. "2012 Attestation" means the compliance attestation report of KPMG LLP, the independent registered public accounting firm engaged by Wells Fargo to issue such compliance attestation report in connection with the 2012 Assessment, for the 2012 Reporting Period. "2012 Item 1122 Compliance Reports" means the 2012 Assessment and 2012 Attestation. "2012 Reporting Period" means as of and for the year ending December 31, 2012. "Identified Payment Errors" means, with respect to the 2012 Reporting Period, the payment errors identified in the normal course of business and through specific procedures performed in connection with the preparation of the 2012 Item 1122 Compliance Reports that led to the determination that there was a material instance of noncompliance for Wells Fargo's Platform. "Identified Reporting Errors" means, with respect to the 2012 Reporting Period, the reporting errors identified in the normal course of business and through specific procedures performed in connection with the preparation of the 2012 Item 1122 Compliance Reports that led to the determination that there was a material instance of noncompliance for Wells Fargo's Platform. "Model" means the Model Input, the Model Program and the processes related to the Model Input and the Model Program that function together for the purpose of calculating payments in accordance with the requirements of relevant transaction documents. "Model Errors" refers to Model Input Errors and Model Program Errors. "Model Input" means data that is transmitted electronically or manually to a Model such as data from a servicer, data from financial services information providers, cash adjustments (such as reimbursable expenses) and information from programs that perform interim calculations. "Model Input Errors" means inaccurate or incomplete Model Input information, inaccuracies in receiving or processing Model Input information or inaccuracies in manual non-automated processing that lead to payment errors. "Model Program" means Model programming logic designed to calculate payments in accordance with transaction document requirements. "Model Program Errors" means inaccurate or incomplete programming or logic in the Model that does not produce calculations in accordance with the transaction documents and therefore causes payment errors and/or reporting errors. "Platform" means the trustee/master servicer/securities administrator/paying agent platform designed by Wells Fargo that corresponds to the 2012 Assessment consisting of approximately 2000 RMBS transactions in addition to other commercial mortgage-backed security and asset-backed security transactions. "RMBS" means residential mortgage-backed securities. "Wells Fargo" means the Corporate Trust Services division of Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. Regarding specific failures in processes relating to waterfall calculations and reporting: Wells Fargo develops a unique Model for each transaction in its Platform. On the whole, there are millions of calculations performed by the Models each payment period for the thousands of transactions in the Platform. Wells Fargo's waterfall payment calculation and reporting functions can be categorized into three processes: *Model Inputs, *Model Programs, and *transmission of each Model's output to the processes and systems that generate investor reports. In the 2012 Reporting Period, there were 84 Identified Payment Errors on RMBS transactions . *40 of the 84 Identified Payment Errors resulted from Model Input Errors. For example , in certain transactions, defaulted fixed rate loans became subject to unanticipated rate modifications when the loans were modified in accordance with industry loan modification initiatives. Because the transaction documents did not contemplate the rate modifications, the Model Input process had to be manually adapted to incorporate the rate changes. Model Input Errors occurred when the manual adjustments were made. *44 of the 84 Identified Payment Errors resulted from Model Program Errors. For example, in many RMBS transactions, at the point credit support is depleted (i.e. the principal balance of the subordinate bonds is reduced to zero), payment allocations to the remaining senior bonds shift from a sequential payment priority to a pro rata payment priority. In many cases, the transaction documents require such shift to occur "on and after" the month in which credit support is depleted and in other transactions the shift occurs "after" the month in which credit support is depleted. Model Program Errors occurred when some Model Programs shifted payment allocations from sequential to pro rata in the wrong month inconsistent with the applicable transaction documents. In addition, with respect to transaction documents which direct the payment priority shift "on and after" credit support depletion, Model Program Errors occurred because proper effect was not given to the word "on". There is an order of operations in every waterfall that directs payments to bonds first and allocations of losses to bonds second. Because credit support depletion most often occurs from the allocation of losses to subordinate bonds, this order of operation (i.e. payments first; losses second) would have to be reversed to make a payment priority shift on the credit support depletion date. Model Program Errors occurred when the order of operations was not reversed in this manner. For the 2012 Reporting Period, there were 148 Identified Reporting Errors on RMBS transactions . *84 of the 148 Identified Reporting Errors resulted from the 84 Identified Payment Errors. Inaccurate payments led to inaccurate reporting. *64 of the 148 Identified Reporting Errors were unrelated to the Identified Payment Errors. **36 of the 64 Identified Reporting Errors resulted from inaccurate/incomplete bond reporting. Some examples of these 36 Identified Reporting Errors include inaccurate reporting variables related to investor payments, incorrect tranche balance reporting and incorrect trigger reporting. **28 of the 64 Identified Reporting Errors resulted from inaccurate/incomplete mortgage loan reporting. Some examples of these 28 Identified Reporting Errors include incorrect information on the collateral statement portion of the investor report, inaccurate delinquency reporting and inaccurate loan level performance reporting. What you mean by "unprecedented levels of collateral degradation" and why that would have any effect on the calculation of the waterfall: "Unprecedented levels of collateral degradation" refers to the significant decrease in mortgage loan performance experienced by RMBS transactions generally over the past several years. The significant decrease in loan performance is evidenced by the fact that over 50 percent of the RMBS transactions in Wells Fargo's Platform have reached credit support depletion. This is a significant event because waterfall payment priorities for the senior bonds typically change at that point. One reason why high levels of RMBS mortgage loan performance degradation affect waterfall calculations is because such degradation contributes to Model Input Errors. One example of such Model Input Errors relates to the extensive level of mortgage loan delinquencies and the resulting extensive levels of servicer advancing. High levels of advancing lead to both high advance recoveries by servicers in single distribution periods and increased servicer stop advance decisions. These phenomena require manual processing which can result in Model Input Errors. The high level of RMBS mortgage loan performance degradation has also contributed to Model Program Errors. The extensive collateral losses in RMBS transactions have triggered waterfall scenarios that were considered unlikely to occur at the inception of the transactions (if they were considered at all) and were not as clearly detailed as other provisions in the transaction agreements that direct waterfall calculations and distributions. At Model creation, those waterfall scenarios were not forecasted to reach the levels of underperformance that RMBS mortgage loans have experienced. Because of such lack of forecasting and the absence of benchmark data for such scenarios from the underwriters/sponsors of the transactions or other sources, Wells Fargo was unable to test and validate such waterfall scenarios. As a result, Model Program Errors occurred. What you mean by "adapted over time": "Adapted over time" refers to the fact that Model Programs and Model Inputs and the processes related to Model Programs and Model Inputs are, over the life of a transaction, constantly being adjusted in an effort to ensure accurate payments. Continual adjustments are required because the transactions and securities to which the Models relate are very complex and the technology and processes related to Model Programs and Model Inputs are equally complex. The level of adjustment needed for Model Programs, Model Inputs, and related processes increased as mortgage loan performance degradation increased. Regarding "Payment Errors" and "Reporting Errors": The Identified Payment Errors and the Identified Reporting Errors were generally similar in type to the payment and reporting errors that led to the determination that there was a material instance of noncompliance for the 2011 assessment of compliance. However, the transactions on which the errors occurred and the exact circumstances and details giving rise to the Identified Payment Errors and Identified Reporting Errors in 2012 were different than 2011. The correction of the 2011 identified payment errors and reporting errors was specific to the Models for the affected transactions and such corrections do not preclude the possibility that a similar type of error would occur on a different transaction with a different Model in 2012. Examples of Model Program Errors that occurred similarly in both years involve (i) post-credit support depletion loss allocation methodology and payment priority rules (e.g., pro rata versus sequential), and (ii) the calculation of group-directed cash flows, interest calculation elements (rate, accrual day logic, etc.), and pre-credit support depletion loss allocation. Examples of Model Input Errors that occurred similarly in both years involve (i) improper coding of cash adjustments and using incorrect prior month data, (ii) loan modification inputs related to capitalization of delinquent amounts and the recovery of advances related thereto and modified interest rates in certain transaction structures, and (iii) cash adjustments related to servicer advance reimbursements that caused errors in certain calculations (e.g., the net weighted average coupon rate calculations). Comparing the Identified Reporting Errors to the identified reporting errors in 2011, a substantial number in each year were caused by the payment errors (i.e., reporting an incorrect payment). There were other reporting errors in both years that related to missing and incorrect bond information and missing and incorrect mortgage loan information. Whether the payment errors resulted in overpayments or underpayments to investors: In most cases, the Identified Payment Errors were a combination of overpayments to one or more classes of investors or transaction parties and corresponding underpayments to one or more other classes of investors or other transaction parties. Therefore, most of the Identified Payment Errors consisted of overpayments and underpayments that netted to zero because all the cash that was received from a transaction party in a payment cycle was distributed to investors or other transaction parties on the related payment date . The types of reporting errors that occurred and how they related to the payment errors: 84 of the 148 Identified Reporting Errors were caused by the Identified Payment Errors in that the incorrect payment led to incorrect reporting. Since the Identified Payment Errors were calculated incorrectly, the payments were reported incorrectly. The remaining 64 of the 148 Identified Reporting Errors were not caused by the Identified Payment Errors. Those 64 Identified Reporting Errors consisted of missing or inaccurate information related to various bond reporting and mortgage loan reporting elements. Whether investors whose payments were impacted were notified of the errors and, if so, how they were notified: Investors received notice of the Identified Payment Errors by means of the posting to Wells Fargo's website of corrected payment date statements. Investors received notice of Investor Reporting Errors by either a revised statement in connection with a restatement of the affected distributions or by correcting the reporting error on the next payment date statement. Whether any underpayments were paid or will be paid to investors and, if so, when the payments were made or will be made: With one exception , Identified Payment Errors that resulted in underpayments to investors were rectified by means of restating affected distribution periods. The restatements occurred between February 1, 2012 and March 1, 2013. Whether any future payments were adjusted to account for overpayments: With one exception described in footnote 8, Identified Payment Errors that resulted in overpayments to investors were rectified by restating the affected distribution periods. Except with respect to one Identified Payment Error on one transaction unrelated to the transactions to which the Comment Letter relates, no future payments were adjusted in connection with overpayment errors. In that one case, distributions to one class of certificates were adjusted over three distribution dates and such adjustment was disclosed on the respective distribution date statements. Regarding remediation of the identified errors and any adjustments to the waterfall calculations and other operational processes and quality control measures applied to the RMBS transactions in the Platform to minimize the risk of future payment and reporting errors: The specific actions that have been taken or are in the process of being taken to remediate the identified payment errors and reporting errors: Except as discussed in footnote 8, Wells Fargo has remediated all of the 84 Identified Payment Errors through restatements of the affected distribution periods. The restatements occurred between February 1, 2012 and March 1, 2013. Wells Fargo has remediated all 148 Identified Reporting Errors by either issuing a revised statement in connection with a restatement of the affected payments or by ensuring that the reporting element in question was correctly reported on the next payment date statement. The specific adjustments that have been or will be made to the waterfall calculations and other operational processes and quality control measures applied to the RMBS transactions in the platform: Wells Fargo has determined to address not only the specific errors that led to the determination of material instances of non-compliance on the RMBS component of its Platform, but also to take proactive measures to identify other problems with its Models that could cause payment or reporting errors. Accordingly, Wells Fargo has undertaken an expansive project to identify, rectify and prevent problems with its Models and the individual transactions that exhibited these problems. Wells Fargo is in the early stages of this project. Due to the size of the RMBS component of its Platform, this is a long term, intensive project involving significant internal and external resources. In conjunction with other steps taken, Wells Fargo believes that this initiative will result in ongoing improvements to its payment and reporting processes. Any other steps that Wells Fargo has undertaken or will undertake to ensure that similar errors do not occur in the future: Throughout 2012 and 2013, Wells Fargo has adopted numerous other initiatives in an effort to add rigor to its operational processes and quality control measures. The initiatives relate to both preventing Model Errors and identifying and correcting Model Errors. Examples of measures to prevent Model Errors include, among other things, enhancements to its (i) new Model creation procedures, (ii) procedures for pre-closing review of waterfall language in transaction documents, and (iii) procedures for pre-payment date testing of transaction level payment calculations and reporting elements. Examples of measures to identify and correct Model Errors include, among other things, (a) enhanced procedures relating to Model revisions, (b) the creation of a team charged with conducting a careful analysis of every Model Error to determine if any additional controls are necessary to prevent the errors from re-occurring, and (c) the creation of a team to proactively perform Model Program corrections to prevent future Model Errors. Wells Fargo has hired over two dozen additional staff and reorganized various teams to more effectively manage the above-mentioned operational processes and quality control measures. ^1While there were also some Identified Payment Errors on CMBS and ABS transactions in the Platform, Schedule B to the 2012 Assessment says "[T]he identified Payment Errors and Reporting Errors that led to Management's determination that material instances of noncompliance with respect to the Platform had occurred was limited to certain RMBS transactions in the Platform. There were no identified Payment Errors or Reporting Errors for non-RMBS transactions in the Platform which contributed to Management's determination that there were material instances of noncompliance for the Platform". Accordingly, the statistics provided in this response relating to Identified Payment Errors and Identified Reporting Errors are limited to RMBS transactions in the Platform. ^2Because it would be impractical to provide a detailed explanation of each of the 84 Identified Payment Errors, Wells Fargo has endeavored in its responses to questions 5, 6 and 7 to provide meaningful examples of the Identified Payment Errors and Identified Reporting Errors. The examples are illustrative but not representative of every individual error or error type. ^3See footnote 1. ^4A stop advance decision is made by a servicer when, with respect to any advance made in the past or any proposed future advance, it determines that such advances will not be recoverable from collections on the loan or from liquidation proceeds. ^5There were principally two types of benchmark data used: decrement tables and underwriter/sponsor cash flow projections. The decrement tables in offering documents generally only projected out at pricing speeds with zero loss assumptions. Reconciling Models with those decrement tables based on those assumptions would not have exposed the stresses on the Model Programs resulting from the significant mortgage loan performance degradation in recent years. In addition, cash flow projections received from the underwriters/sponsors at the time of deal issuance were projected at minimal losses which were not severe enough to expose the stresses on the Model Programs resulting from the significant collateral degradation in recent years. ^6While most Identified Payment Errors netted to zero, a small number of the Identified Payment Errors did not net to zero. Identified Payment Errors that did not net to zero occurred when, inadvertently, either (i) less than 100 percent the cash that was received from a transaction party (such as a servicer) in a payment cycle was distributed to investors or other transaction parties on the related payment date leaving cash in the transaction's distribution account or (ii) an amount greater than 100 percent of the cash that was received from a transaction party (such as a servicer) in a payment cycle was distributed to investors or other transaction parties on the related payment date causing an overdraft of the transaction's distribution account. The scenario described in clause (i) explains the majority of circumstances where overpayments and underpayments did not net to zero. ^7As used in this response, the term "restatement" and the phrase "restating affected distribution periods" means the correction of an overpayment or underpayment experienced by a class of book-entry securities by (i) submitting a revised payment date statement for each affected distribution period to the Depository Trust Company ("DTC") by which the DTC adjusts the accounts of the overpaid and underpaid classes, and (ii) the posting of such revised payment date statement to Wells Fargo's website. In accordance with its current policy, the DTC revises up to twelve months of affected distributions. On a limited number of occasions when the affected distribution periods extended beyond such twelve month time frame, Wells Fargo included adjustments for the additional distribution periods in the restatement of the twelve distribution periods and notified investors of this fact on the revised payment date statements. The process is similar for physical securities except that Wells Fargo interacts directly with affected holders as opposed to interacting with the DTC. ^8There is one underpayment of $4992.92 (and a corresponding overpayment of the same amount) from March 2012 which has not been remedied. The underpayment did not occur on any transaction to which the Commission's Comment Letter directly relates. Wells Fargo is in the process of determining an appropriate course of action with regard to this underpayment.

Management has policies and procedures in place designed to provide reasonable assurance that the vendors' activities comply in all material respects with the servicing criteria applicable to each vendor. The Company's management is solely responsible for determining that it meets the SEC requirements to apply Interpretation 17.06 for the vendors and related criteria. Appendix A identifies the individual asset-backed transactions and securities defined by management as constituting the Platform.

In making this assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Securities and Exchange Commission in paragraph (d) of Item 1122 of Regulation AB.

The Company has determined that the servicing criteria are applicable in regards to the servicing platform for the period as follows: Platform: Publicly-issued (i.e., transaction-level reporting initially required under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) and certain privately-issued (i.e., for which transaction-level reporting is required pursuant to contractual obligation) residential mortgage-backed securities, commercial mortgage-backed securities and other asset-backed securities, for which the Company provides master servicing, trustee, securities administration or paying agent services, excluding any such securities issued by any agency or instrumentality of the U.S. government (other than the Federal Deposit Insurance Company) or any government sponsored entity, and further excluding the transactions issued prior to 2006 for which Wells Fargo outsources all material servicing activities (as defined by Regulation AB) (the "Platform").

Third parties classified as vendors: With respect to servicing criterion 1122(d)(4)(i), the Company has engaged a vendor to handle certain Uniform Commercial Code filing functions required by the servicing criterion. The Company has determined that this vendor is not considered a "servicer" as defined in Item 1101(j) of Regulation AB, and the Company elects to take responsibility for assessing compliance with the portion of the servicing criterion applicable to this vendor as permitted by Interpretation 17.06 of the SEC Division of Corporation Finance Manual of Publicly Available Telephone Interpretations ("Interpretation 17.06"). The Company has policies and procedures in place to provide reasonable assurance that the vendor's activities comply in all material respects with the servicing criterion applicable to the vendor. The Company is solely responsible for determining that it meets the SEC requirements to apply Interpretation 17.06 for the vendor and related criterion. With respect to the Platform and the Period, the Company provides the following assessment of compliance with respect to the Applicable Servicing Criteria: 1. The Company is responsible for assessing its compliance with the Applicable Servicing Criteria. 2. The Company has assessed compliance with the Applicable Servicing Criteria, including the servicing criterion for which compliance is determined based on Interpretation 17.06 as described above.

Based on such assessment, the Company has complied, in all material respects with the Applicable Servicing Criteria, except as described in Schedule A hereto. 4.

WELLS FARGO BANK, National Association By: /s/ Brian Bartlett Brian Bartlett Title: Executive Vice President Dated: February 28,2013 Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. (logo) Together we'll go far (page) Schedule A 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, 2012 and for the Period, disclosed that material instances of noncompliance occurred with respect to the servicing criteria set forth in both of Items 1122(d)(3)(i)(B) and 1122(d)(3)(ii), as follows: * 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. Schedule B Management's Discussion on Material Instances of Noncompliance by the Company Disclosure: During the Period, Wells Fargo identified Payment Errors (as defined below) and Reporting Errors (as defined below) on certain residential mortgage-backed securities ("RMBS") transactions in the Platform. Although no individually identified error, in and of itself, was found to be material to the Platform, when the errors were considered in the aggregate, Management determined that, for Platform purposes, there were material instances of noncompliance with respect to both Items 1122(d)(3)(i)(B) and 1122(d)(3)(ii) of Regulation AB. For purposes of this Schedule B, the term "Payment Errors" means the identified payment errors that occurred during the Period and that, when considered in the aggregate, led to Management's determination that there was a material instance of noncompliance for the Platform with respect to Item 1122(d)(3)(i)(B) of Regulation AB. For purposes of this Schedule B, the term "Reporting Errors" means the identified reporting errors that occurred during the Period and that, when considered in the aggregate, led to Management's determination that there was a material instance of noncompliance for the Platform with respect to Item 1122(d)(3)(ii) of Regulation AB. The identified Payment Errors and Reporting Errors on such RMBS transactions were attributable to certain failures in processes relating to waterfall calculations and reporting that, although adapted over time, still insufficiently addressed the impact of the unprecedented levels of collateral degradation in RMBS transactions on the calculation of principal and interest payments and losses and associated investor reporting. Scope of the Material Instances of Noncompliance: The identified Payment Errors and Reporting Errors that led to Management's determination that material instances of noncompliance with respect to the Platform had occurred were limited to certain RMBS transactions in the Platform. There were no identified Payment Errors or Reporting Errors for non-RMBS transactions in the Platform which contributed to Management's determination that there were material instances of noncompliance for the Platform. In some instances, the identified Payment Errors which contributed to Management's determination that there were material instances of noncompliance for the Platform were also considered material to the transactions on which they occurred. None of the identified Reporting Errors which contributed to Management's determination that there were material instances of noncompliance for the Platform were considered material for a particular transaction. For all transactions in the Platform (including RMBS transactions with identified Payment Errors and Reporting Errors), Management delivered an Item 1123 certification to the extent it was required to do so pursuant to the requirements of the applicable transaction documents and Regulation AB. Where there was an identified Payment Error that was considered material for an individual transaction, the Item 1123 certification included a description of the nature and scope of such error. Remediation: Appropriate actions have been taken or are in the process of being taken to remediate the identified Payment Errors and Reporting Errors that led to Management's determination that material instances of noncompliance with respect to the Platform had occurred. Further, adjustments have been or will be made to the waterfall calculations and other operational processes and quality control measures applied to the RMBS transactions in the Platform to minimize the risk of future payment and reporting errors.

Management is responsible for the Company's compliance with the servicing criteria. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on management's assertion about the Company's compliance based on our examination. Our examination was conducted in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) and, accordingly, included examining, on a test basis, evidence about the Company's compliance with the servicing criteria specified above and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. Our examination included testing selected asset-backed transactions and securities that comprise the Platform, testing selected servicing activities related to the Platform, and determining whether the Company processed those selected transactions and performed those selected activities in compliance with the servicing criteria. Furthermore, our procedures were limited to the selected transactions and servicing activities performed by the Company during the period covered by this report.
