Section 8 – Other Events
Item 8.01. Other Events.
On March 23, 2021, Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. (“Wells Fargo Bank”) and Wells Fargo Delaware Trust Company, N.A. (“WFDTC”, and collectively with Wells Fargo Bank, “Wells Fargo”) announced that it had entered into a definitive agreement with Computershare Trust Company, National Association (“CTCNA”), Computershare Delaware Trust Company (“CDTC”, and collectively with CTCNA, “Computershare”) and Computershare Limited (“CPU Ltd”) to sell substantially all of their Corporate Trust Services (“CTS”) business. Effective as of November 1, 2021 (the “Closing Date”), the sale closed, and virtually all CTS employees of Wells Fargo, along with most existing CTS systems, technology, and offices, transferred to Computershare. For some of the transactions in Wells Fargo’s CTS business, Wells Fargo’s roles and the duties, rights, and liabilities with such roles under the relevant transaction agreements (the “Roles”) did not transfer to CTCNA or CDTC on the Closing Date (the “Non-Transferred Role(s) Transactions”) and CTCNA or CDTC performed all or virtually all of such Roles on behalf of Wells Fargo as its agent. As of the Closing Date, the Morgan Stanley Capital I Trust 2021-PLZA securitization was a Non-Transferred Role(s) Transaction, and CTCNA or CDTC performed the roles of certificate administrator and custodian under the trust and servicing agreement for the MSC Trust 2021-PLZA securitization (the “MSC 2021-PLZA TSA”), pursuant to which the Park Avenue Plaza mortgage loan and each related pari passu and/or subordinate promissory note (collectively, the “Park Avenue Plaza Loan Combination”) is serviced, as agent for Wells Fargo.
Effective as of July 1, 2022 (the “Transfer Date”), (a) Wells Fargo fully transferred, and CTCNA assumed, the duties, rights, and liabilities of the certificate administrator and the custodian under the MSC 2021-PLZA TSA, and (b) CTCNA is therefore no longer performing the roles of certificate administrator and custodian under the MSC 2021-PLZA TSA as agent for Wells Fargo. As of the Transfer Date, Wells Fargo is no longer responsible for the duties, rights, and liabilities of the certificate administrator and the custodian under the MSC 2021-PLZA TSA, and as of the Transfer Date, CTCNA is no longer Wells Fargo’s agent with respect to the MSC Trust 2021-PLZA securitization. CTCNA will be the certificate administrator and custodian under the MSC 2021-PLZA TSA, and servicing of the Park Avenue Plaza Loan Combination will continue to be governed by the MSC 2021-PLZA TSA. CTCNA is also the certificate administrator and custodian under the BANK 2021-BNK38 pooling and servicing agreement and the BANK 2021-BNK37 pooling and servicing agreement, pursuant to which the 1201 Lake Robbins loan combination is serviced.
