The securities offered by this structural and collateral term sheet (this “Term Sheet”) are described in greater detail in the preliminary prospectus included as part of our Registration Statement (SEC File No. 333-207677) (the “Preliminary Prospectus”) anticipated to be dated March 8, 2018. The Preliminary Prospectus contains material information that is not contained in this Term Sheet (including without limitation a detailed discussion of risks associated with an investment in the offered securities under the heading “Risk Factors” in the Preliminary Prospectus). The Preliminary Prospectus is available upon request from Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, Drexel Hamilton, LLC or The Williams Capital Group, L.P. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined in this Term Sheet have the respective meanings assigned to those terms in the Preliminary Prospectus. This Term Sheet is subject to change.

The Securities May Not Be a Suitable Investment for You

The securities offered by this Term Sheet are not suitable investments for all investors. In particular, you should not purchase any class of securities unless you understand and are able to bear the prepayment, credit, liquidity and market risks associated with that class of securities. For those reasons and for the reasons set forth under the heading “Risk Factors” in the Preliminary Prospectus, the yield to maturity and the aggregate amount and timing of distributions on the offered securities are subject to material variability from period to period and give rise to the potential for significant loss over the life of those securities. The interaction of these factors and their effects are impossible to predict and are likely to change from time to time. As a result, an investment in the offered securities involves substantial risks and uncertainties and should be considered only by sophisticated institutional investors with substantial investment experience with similar types of securities and who have conducted appropriate due diligence on the mortgage loans and the securities. Potential investors are advised and encouraged to review the Preliminary Prospectus in full and to consult with their legal, tax, accounting and other advisors prior to making any investment in the offered securities described in this Term Sheet.

This Term Sheet is not to be construed as an offer to sell or the solicitation of any offer to buy any security in any jurisdiction where such an offer or solicitation would be illegal. The information contained in this Term Sheet may not pertain to any securities that will actually be sold. The information contained in this Term Sheet may be based on assumptions regarding market conditions and other matters as reflected in this Term Sheet. We make no representations regarding the reasonableness of such assumptions or the likelihood that any of such assumptions will coincide with actual market conditions or events, and this Term Sheet should not be relied upon for such purposes. We and our affiliates, officers, directors, partners and employees, including persons involved in the preparation or issuance of this Term Sheet may, from time to time, have long or short positions in, and buy or sell, the securities mentioned in this Term Sheet or derivatives thereof (including options). Information contained in this Term Sheet is current as of the date appearing on this Term Sheet only. Information in this Term Sheet regarding the securities and the mortgage loans backing any securities discussed in this Term Sheet supersedes all prior information regarding such securities and mortgage loans. None of Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, Drexel Hamilton, LLC or The Williams Capital Group, L.P. provides accounting, tax or legal advice.

The issuing entity will be relying upon an exclusion or exemption from the definition of “investment company” under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), contained in Section 3(c)(5) of the Investment Company Act or Rule 3a-7 under the Investment Company Act, although there may be additional exclusions or exemptions available to the issuing entity. The issuing entity is being structured so as not to constitute a “covered fund” for purposes of the Volcker Rule under the Dodd-Frank Act (both as defined in “Risk Factors—Other Risks Relating to the Certificates—Legal and Regulatory Provisions Affecting Investors Could Adversely Affect the Liquidity of the Offered Certificates” in the Preliminary Prospectus). See also “Legal Investment” in the Preliminary Prospectus.

It is a condition of issuance that the offered certificates receive the ratings set forth above. The anticipated ratings of the certificates shown are those of Fitch Ratings, Inc. (“Fitch”), Kroll Bond Rating Agency, Inc. (“KBRA”) and Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. (“Moody’s” and together with Fitch and KBRA, the “Rating Agencies”). Subject to the discussion under “Ratings” in the Preliminary Prospectus, the ratings on the certificates address the likelihood of the timely receipt by holders of all payments of interest to which they are entitled on each distribution date and, except in the case of the interest only certificates, the ultimate receipt by holders of all payments of principal to which they are entitled on or before the applicable rated final distribution date. Certain nationally recognized statistical rating organizations, as defined in Section 3(a)(62) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, that were not hired by the depositor may use information they receive pursuant to Rule 17g-5 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or otherwise to rate the offered certificates. We cannot assure you as to what ratings a non-hired nationally recognized statistical rating organization would assign. See “Risk Factors—Other Risks Relating to the Certificates—Nationally Recognized Statistical Rating Organizations May Assign Different Ratings to the Certificates; Ratings of the Certificates Reflect Only the Views of the Applicable Rating Agencies as of the Dates Such Ratings Were Issued; Ratings May Affect ERISA Eligibility; Ratings May Be Downgraded” in the Preliminary Prospectus. The related Rating Agencies have informed us that the “sf” designation in their ratings represents an identifier of structured finance product ratings. For additional information about this identifier, prospective investors can go to the related Rating Agency’s website. The depositor and the underwriters have not verified, do not adopt and do not accept responsibility for any statements made by the related Rating Agencies on those websites. Credit ratings referenced throughout this Term Sheet are forward-looking opinions about credit risk and express a rating agency’s opinion about the willingness and ability of an issuer of securities to meet its financial obligations in full and on time. Ratings are not indications of investment merit and are not buy, sell or hold recommendations, a measure of asset value or an indication of the suitability of an investment.

(2)

Approximate, subject to a variance of plus or minus 5%. The notional amount of the Class X-A, Class X-B and Class X-D certificates (collectively the “Class X certificates”) is subject to change depending upon the final pricing of the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class A-4, Class A-AB, Class A-S, Class B, Class C, Class D, Class E, Class F-RR and Class G-RR certificates (collectively, the “principal balance certificates”), as follows: (1) if as a result of such pricing the pass-through rate of any class of principal balance certificates whose certificate balance comprises such notional amount is equal to the weighted average of the net mortgage interest rates on the mortgage loans (in each case, adjusted, if necessary, to accrue on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months), the certificate balance of such class of principal balance certificates may not be part of, and reduce accordingly, such notional amount of the related Class X certificates (or, if as a result of such pricing the pass-through rate of the related Class X certificates is equal to zero, such Class X certificates may not be issued on the closing date), and/or (2) if as a result of such pricing the pass-through rate of any class of principal balance certificates that does not comprise such notional amount of the related Class X certificates is equal to less than the weighted average of the net mortgage interest rates on the mortgage loans (in each case, adjusted, if necessary, to accrue on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months), such class of principal balance certificates may become a part of, and increase accordingly, such notional amount of the related Class X certificates.

(3)

The initial credit support percentages set forth for the certificates are approximate and, for the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class A-4 and Class A-AB certificates, are represented in the aggregate. The RR Interest provides credit support only to the limited extent that it is allocated a portion of any losses incurred on the mortgage loans, which such losses are allocated between it, on the one hand, and the certificates, on the other hand, as described in “Credit Risk Retention” in the Preliminary Prospectus.

(4)

The weighted average life and period during which distributions of principal would be received as set forth in the foregoing table with respect to each class of certificates having a certificate balance are based on the assumptions set forth under “Yield, Prepayment and Maturity Considerations—Weighted Average Life” in the Preliminary Prospectus and on the assumptions that there are no prepayments, modifications or losses in respect of the mortgage loans or whole loans and that there are no extensions or forbearances of maturity dates or anticipated repayment dates of the mortgage loans or whole loans.

The depositor has filed a registration statement (including the prospectus) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) (SEC File No. 333-207677) (the “Registration Statement”) for the offering to which this communication relates. Before you invest, you should read the prospectus in the Registration Statement and other documents the depositor has filed with the SEC for more complete information about the depositor, the issuing entity and this offering. You may get these documents for free by visiting EDGAR on the SEC website at www.sec.gov. Alternatively, the depositor or Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, Drexel Hamilton, LLC, The Williams Capital Group, L.P., any other underwriter, or any dealer participating in this offering will arrange to send you the prospectus if you request it by calling toll-free 1-866-471-2526 or if you email a request to prospectus-ny@gs.com.

CERTIFICATE SUMMARY (continued)

(5)

For each distribution date, the pass-through rates on each class of principal balance certificates will generally be a per annum rate equal to one of (i) a fixed rate, (ii) the weighted average of the net mortgage interest rates on the mortgage loans (in each case, adjusted, if necessary, to accrue on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) as of their respective due dates in the month preceding the month in which the related distribution date occurs (the “WAC Rate”), (iii) the lesser of a specified pass-through rate and the WAC Rate, or (iv) the WAC Rate less a specified percentage.

(6)

The exact initial certificate balances of the Class A-3 and Class A-4 certificates are unknown and will be determined based on the final pricing of those classes of certificates. However, the respective initial certificate balances, weighted average lives and principal windows of the Class A-3 and Class A-4 certificates are expected to be within the applicable ranges reflected in the following chart. The aggregate initial certificate balance of the Class A-3 and Class A-4 certificates is expected to be approximately $531,127,000, subject to a variance of plus or minus 5%.

Class of Certificates	Expected Range of Initial Certificate Balance	Expected Range of Wtd. Avg. Life (Yrs)	Expected Range of Principal Window
Class A-3	$120,000,000 – $170,000,000	9.50 – 9.55	06/27 – 11/27 / 06/27–12/27
Class A-4	$361,127,000 – $411,127,000	9.80 – 9.79	12/27 – 02/28 / 11/27 – 02/28

(7)

The Class X certificates will not have certificate balances and will not be entitled to receive distributions of principal. Interest will accrue on each of the Class X certificates at its respective pass-through rate based upon its respective notional amount. The notional amount of each of the Class X certificates will be equal to the aggregate certificate balances of the related class(es) of certificates (the “related Class X class”) indicated below.

	Class		Related Class X Class
	Class X-A		Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class A-4, Class A-AB and Class A-S certificates
	Class X-B		Class B certificates
	Class X-D		Class D certificates

(8)

The pass-through rate of each of the Class X certificates for any distribution date will equal the excess, if any, of (i) the WAC Rate, over (ii) the pass-through rate (or the weighted average of the pass-through rates as applicable) of the related Class X class for that distribution date, as described in the Preliminary Prospectus.

(9)

The initial certificate balance of each of the Class E, Class F-RR and Class G-RR certificates are subject to change based on final pricing of all certificates and the final determination of the Class F-RR and Class G-RR certificates (collectively, the “HRR Certificates”) that will be retained by the retaining third-party purchaser to satisfy the sponsor’s U.S. risk retention requirements. For more information regarding the methodology and key inputs and assumptions used to determine the sizing of the HRR Certificates, see “Credit Risk Retention” in the Preliminary Prospectus.

(10)

The Class S certificates will not have a certificate principal amount, notional amount, pass-through rate, rating or rated final distribution date. Excess interest accruing after the related anticipated repayment date on any mortgage loan with an anticipated repayment date will, to the extent collected, be allocated to the Class S certificates and the RR Interest, as described under “Description of the Certificates—Distributions—Excess Interest” in the Preliminary Prospectus. See “Description of the Mortgage Pool—Certain Terms of the Mortgage Loans—ARD Loans” in the Preliminary Prospectus.

(11)

The Class R certificates will not have a certificate balance, notional amount, pass-through rate, rating or rated final distribution date. The Class R certificates will represent the residual interests in each of two separate REMICs, as further described in the Preliminary Prospectus. The Class R certificates will not be entitled to distributions of principal or interest.

RR INTEREST SUMMARY

Non-Offered Eligible Vertical Interest		Approximate Initial RR Interest Balance		Approximate Initial RR Interest Rate		RR Interest Rate Description		Wtd. Avg. Life (Yrs)⁽¹⁾		Principal Window⁽¹⁾

(1)

The weighted average life and period during which distributions of principal would be received as set forth in the foregoing table with respect to the RR Interest are based on the assumptions set forth under “Yield, Prepayment and Maturity Considerations—Weighted Average Life” in the Preliminary Prospectus and on the assumptions that there are no prepayments, modifications or losses in respect of the mortgage loans or whole loans and that there are no extensions or forbearances of maturity dates or anticipated repayment dates of the mortgage loans or whole loans.

(2)

The RR Interest represents the right to receive 3.43% of all amounts collected on the Mortgage Loans (net of all expenses of the issuing entity) that are available for distribution to the Certificates (other than the Class R certificates) and the RR Interest (i.e., representing the right to receive the Risk Retention Allocation Percentage of all amounts distributed on the Certificates (other than the Class R certificates) on each Distribution Date), as further described under “Description of the Certificates—Distributions” in the Preliminary Prospectus.

(3)

Although it does not have a specified pass-through rate, the effective RR interest rate will be a per annum rate equal to the weighted average of the net mortgage interest rates on the mortgage loans (in each case adjusted, if necessary, to accrue on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) as of their respective due dates in the month preceding the month in which the related distribution date occurs.

(1)

Each of the 10 mortgage loans, representing approximately 49.1% of the initial pool balance, listed in the “Companion Loan Summary” table below has one or more related pari passu companion loans, and the loan-to-value ratio, debt service coverage ratio, debt yield and balance per SF or room calculations presented in this Term Sheet include the related pari passu companion loan(s) unless otherwise indicated. With respect to three mortgage loans, representing approximately 14.3% of the initial pool balance, with one or more related subordinate companion loan(s) as set forth in the “Companion Loan Summary” table below, the loan-to-value ratio, debt service coverage ratio, debt yield and balance per SF or room calculations presented in this Term Sheet are calculated without regard to the related subordinate companion loan(s). Other than as specifically noted, the loan-to-value ratio, debt service coverage ratio, debt yield and mortgage loan rate information for each mortgage loan is presented in this Term Sheet without regard to any other indebtedness (whether or not secured by the related mortgaged property, ownership interests in the related borrower or otherwise) that currently exists or that may be incurred by the related borrower or its owners in the future, in order to present statistics for the related mortgage loan without combination with the other indebtedness.

(2)

Subject to a permitted variance of plus or minus 5%.

(3)

Unless otherwise indicated, with respect to three mortgage loans, representing approximately 17.5% of the initial pool balance have anticipated repayment dates and are presented as if they were to mature on its anticipated repayment date.

(4)

Unless otherwise indicated, the Cut-off Date LTV Ratio is calculated utilizing the “as-is” appraised value (which in certain cases may reflect a portfolio premium valuation). With respect to three mortgage loans (10.4%) the Cut-off Date LTV Ratio was calculated based upon a valuation other than an “as-is” value of each related mortgaged property or the cut-off date principal balance of a mortgage loan less a reserve taken at origination. The weighted average Cut-off Date LTV Ratio for the mortgage pool without making any adjustments is 58.0%.

(5)

Unless otherwise indicated, the Maturity Date/ARD LTV Ratio is calculated utilizing the “as-is” appraised value. With respect to 16 mortgage loans, representing approximately 40.9% of the aggregate principal balance of the pool of mortgage loans as of the Cut-off Date, the respective Maturity Date/ARD LTV Ratios were calculated using an “as stabilized” or “prospective as stabilized” appraised value assuming certain reserves were pre-funded instead of the related “as-is” appraised value. The weighted average Maturity Date/ARD LTV Ratio for the mortgage pool without making such adjustments is 54.1%. See “Description of the Mortgage Pool—Certain Calculations and Definitions” in the Preliminary Prospectus for a description of Maturity Date/ARD LTV Ratio.

(6)

Unless otherwise indicated, the Underwritten Debt Service Coverage Ratio for each mortgage loan is calculated by dividing the Underwritten Net Cash Flow from the related mortgaged property or mortgaged properties by the annual debt service for such mortgage loan, as adjusted in the case of mortgage loans with a partial interest only period by using the first 12 amortizing payments due instead of the actual interest only payment. With respect to the Twelve Oaks Mall mortgage loan, payments of interest and principal sufficient to amortize the Twelve Oaks Mall Whole Loan over a 30-year amortization schedule are required. Principal is applied to the Twelve Oaks Mall mortgage loan as outlined in Annex F in the Preliminary Prospectus, and the annual debt service is calculated based on the pro rata portion of the sum of the first 12 principal and interest payments following the Closing Date. See “Description of the Mortgage Pool—Certain Calculations and Definitions” in the Preliminary Prospectus for a description of Underwritten Debt Service Coverage Ratio.

(7)

Unless otherwise indicated, the Debt Yield on Underwritten NOI for each mortgage loan is the related mortgaged property’s Underwritten NOI divided by the Cut-off Date Balance of such mortgage loan, and the Debt Yield on Underwritten NCF for each mortgage loan is the related mortgaged property’s Underwritten NCF divided by the Cut-off Date Balance of such mortgage loan. With respect to one mortgage loan, representing 1.2% of the initial pool balance, the respective Debt Yield on Underwritten NOI and Debt Yield on Underwritten NCF were calculated using the Cut-off Date Balance of a mortgage loan less the $1,000,000 earnout reserve taken at origination. The weighted average Debt Yield on Underwritten NOI and weighted average Debt Yield on Underwritten NCF for the mortgage pool without making this adjustment are 12.2% and 11.5%, respectively. See “Description of the Mortgage Pool—Certain Characteristics and Definitions” in the Preliminary Prospectus for descriptions of Debt Yield on Underwritten NOI and Debt Yield on Underwritten NCF.

(8)

The Apple Campus 3 and Worldwide Plaza mortgage loans have additional existing subordinate mezzanine loans held by certain limited liability companies owned by certain individuals who also own an indirect interest in the borrowers. See “Description of the Mortgage Pool—The Whole Loans” and “Description of the Mortgage Pool—Additional Indebtedness” in the Preliminary Prospectus.

(9)

The Twelve Oaks Mall, Worldwide Plaza and Starwood Lodging Hotel Portfolio mortgage loans have one or more subordinate companion loans that is generally subordinate in right of payment to the respective related mortgage loans (the “Twelve Oaks Mall Subordinate Companion Loan”, “Worldwide Plaza Subordinate Companion Loans” and the “Starwood Lodging Hotel Portfolio Subordinate Companion Loan”). The Twelve Oaks Mall Subordinate Companion Loans, evidenced by note B-1, note B-2 and note B-3, have an aggregate outstanding principal balance of $100,000,000 as of the Cut-off Date, are currently held by GSMC, WFBNA and JP Morgan and are anticipated to be sold to an unrelated third party investor. The Worldwide Plaza Subordinate Companion Loans, evidenced by note B-1-S and note B-2-S, have an aggregate outstanding principal balance of $323,714,000 as of the Cut-off Date, were contributed to the WPT 2017-WWP securitization transaction. The Starwood Lodging Hotel Portfolio Subordinate Companion Loan, evidenced by note B, has an aggregate outstanding principal balance of $467,314,737 as of the Cut-off Date, and was contributed to the GSMS 2017-SLP securitization transaction. See “Description of the Mortgage Pool—The Whole Loans” and “Description of the Mortgage Pool—Additional Indebtedness” in the Preliminary Prospectus.

STRUCTURAL OVERVIEW

Allocations Between

the Certificates and

the RR Interest

The aggregate amount available for distributions to the holders of the Certificates and the owner of the RR Interest (each such owner, an “RR Interest Owner”) on each Distribution Date (net of specified expenses of the issuing entity, including fees payable to, and costs and expenses reimbursable to, the master servicer, the special servicer, the certificate administrator, the trustee, the operating advisor and the asset representations reviewer) will be allocated to (a) the RR Interest, in an amount equal to the product of such amount multiplied by 3.43% (the “RRI Percentage”) and (b) the certificates, in an amount equal to the product of such amount multiplied by 96.57% (the “Non-RRI Percentage”), in each case such percentages being referred to in this Term Sheet as their respective “percentage allocation entitlement”.

Distributions

On each Distribution Date, funds available for distribution to the certificates (net of Excess Interest, yield maintenance charges and prepayment premiums) will be distributed in the following amounts and order of priority (in each case to the extent of remaining available funds allocated to the certificates):

Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class A-4, Class A-AB, Class X-A and Class X-B certificates: to interest on the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class A-4, Class A-AB, Class X-A and Class X-B certificates, up to an amount equal to, and pro rata in accordance with, the interest entitlements for those classes.

Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class A-4 and Class A-AB certificates: to the extent of funds allocated to principal, (i) to the Class A-AB certificates until their certificate balance is reduced to the Class A-AB scheduled principal balance set forth in Annex E to the Preliminary Prospectus for the relevant Distribution Date, then (ii) to the Class A-1 certificates until their certificate balance is reduced to zero, all funds available for distribution of principal to the certificates remaining after the distributions to Class A-AB in clause (i) above, then (iii) to the Class A-2 certificates until their certificate balance is reduced to zero, all funds available for distribution of principal to the certificates remaining after the distributions to Class A-1 in clause (ii) above, then (iv) to the Class A-3 certificates until their certificate balance is reduced to zero, all funds available for distribution of principal to the certificates remaining after the distributions to Class A-2 in clause (iii) above, and then (v) to the Class A-4 certificates until their certificate balance is reduced to zero, all funds available for distribution of principal to the certificates remaining after the distributions to Class A-3 in clause (iv) above, and then (vi) to the Class A-AB certificates until their certificate balance is reduced to zero, all funds available for distribution of principal to the certificates remaining after the distributions to Class A-4 in clause (v) above.

However, if the certificate balances of each class of certificates other than the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class A-4 and Class A-AB certificates have been reduced to zero as a result of the allocation of mortgage loan losses to those certificates, funds available for distributions of principal to the certificates will be distributed to the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class A-4 and Class A-AB certificates, pro rata, based on their respective certificate balances (and without regard to the Class A-AB scheduled principal balance).

Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class A-4 and Class A-AB certificates: first, to reimburse the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class A-4 and Class A-AB certificates, pro rata, for any previously unreimbursed losses on the mortgage loans allocable to principal that were previously borne by those classes, and second, interest on that amount at the pass-through rate for such class.

Class A-S certificates: (i) first, to interest on the Class A-S certificates up to its interest entitlement; (ii) next, to the extent of funds allocated to principal remaining after distributions in respect of principal to each class of certificates with a higher priority (in this case, the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class A-4 and Class A-AB certificates), to principal on the Class A-S certificates until their certificate balance is reduced to zero; and (iii) next, to reimburse the Class A-S certificates for any previously unreimbursed losses on the mortgage loans allocable to principal that were previously borne by that class, together with interest at its pass-through rate.

Class B certificates: (i) first, to interest on the Class B certificates up to its interest entitlement; (ii) next, to the extent of funds allocated to principal remaining after distributions in respect of principal to each class of certificates with a higher priority (in this case, the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class A-4, Class A-AB, and Class A-S certificates), to principal on the Class B certificates until their certificate balance is reduced to zero; and (iii) next, to reimburse the Class B certificates for any previously unreimbursed losses on the mortgage loans allocable to principal that were previously borne by that class, together with interest at its pass-through rate.

STRUCTURAL OVERVIEW (continued)

Distributions
(continued)

Class C certificates: (i) first, to interest on the Class C certificates up to its interest entitlement; (ii) next, to the extent of funds allocated to principal remaining after distributions in respect of principal to each class of certificates with a higher priority (in this case, the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class A-4, Class A-AB, Class A-S and Class B certificates), to principal on the Class C certificates until their certificate balance is reduced to zero; and (iii) next, to reimburse the Class C certificates for any previously unreimbursed losses on the mortgage loans allocable to principal that were previously borne by that class, together with interest at its pass-through rate.

Class D and Class X-D certificates: (i) first, to interest on the Class D and Class X-D certificates, in the amount of, and pro rata in accordance with, their respective interest entitlements; (ii) next, to the extent of funds allocated to principal remaining after distributions in respect of principal to each class of certificates with a higher priority (in this case, the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class A-4, Class A-AB, Class A-S, Class B and Class C certificates), to principal on the Class D certificates until their certificate balance is reduced to zero; and (iii) next, to reimburse the Class D certificates for any previously unreimbursed losses on the mortgage loans allocable to principal that were previously borne by that class, together with interest at its pass-through rate.

Class E certificates: (i) first, to interest on the Class E certificates up to its interest entitlement; (ii) next, to the extent of funds allocated to principal remaining after distributions in respect of principal to each class of certificates with a higher priority (in this case, the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class A-4, Class A-AB, Class A-S, Class B, Class C and Class D certificates), to principal on the Class E certificates until their certificate balance is reduced to zero; and (iii) next, to reimburse the Class E certificates for any previously unreimbursed losses on the mortgage loans allocable to principal that were previously borne by that class, together with interest at its pass-through rate.

After Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class A-4, Class A-AB, Class X-A, Class X-B, Class A-S, Class B, Class C, Class D, Class X-D and Class E certificates are paid all amounts to which they are entitled, the remaining funds available for distribution to the certificates will be used to pay interest and principal and to reimburse any unreimbursed losses to the Class F-RR and Class G-RR certificates, sequentially, in that order in a manner analogous to the Class E certificates, until the certificate balance of each such class is reduced to zero.

Realized Losses

The certificate balances of the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class A-4, Class A-AB, Class A-S, Class B, Class C, Class D, Class E, Class F-RR and Class G-RR certificates will each be reduced without distribution on any Distribution Date as a write off to the extent of any loss realized on the mortgage loans allocated to such class of certificates on such Distribution Date. On each Distribution Date, the Non-RRI Percentage of any such loss realized on the mortgage loans will be applied to such classes of certificates in the following order, in each case until the related certificate balance is reduced to zero: first, to the Class G-RR certificates; then, to the Class F-RR certificates; then, to the Class E certificates; then, to the Class D certificates; then, to the Class C certificates; then, to the Class B certificates; then, to the Class A-S certificates, and, finally pro rata, to the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class A-4 and Class A-AB certificates, based on their then current respective certificate balances. The notional amount of each class of Class X certificates will be reduced to reflect reductions in the certificate balances of the Related Class X class resulting from allocations of losses realized on the mortgage loans.

Prepayment Premiums

and Yield Maintenance

Charges

On each Distribution Date, the RRI Percentage of any yield maintenance charge collected on the mortgage loans during the applicable one-month period ending on the related Determination Date is required to be distributed to the RR Interest Owner. On each Distribution Date, the Non-RRI Percentage of any yield maintenance charge collected on the mortgage loans during the applicable one-month period ending on the related Determination Date is required to be distributed as follows: (1) first such yield maintenance charge will be allocated between (x) the group (the “YM Group A”) of Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class A-4, Class A-AB, Class X-A and Class A-S certificates, and (y) the group (the “YM Group B” and together with the YM Group A, the “YM Groups”) of the Class X-B, Class B, Class C and Class D certificates, pro rata, based upon the aggregate amount of principal distributed to the classes of certificates (other than the Class X certificates) in each YM group on such Distribution Date, and (2) then the portion of such yield maintenance charge allocated to each YM Group will be further allocated as among the classes of certificates in such YM Group in the following manner: (A) each class of certificates (other than the Class X certificates) in such YM Group will entitle the applicable certificateholders to receive on the applicable Distribution Date that portion of such yield maintenance charge equal to the product of (x) a fraction whose numerator is the amount of principal distributed to such class of certificates on such Distribution Date and whose denominator is the total amount of principal distributed to all of the certificates (other than the Class X certificates) in that YM Group on such Distribution Date, (y) the Base Interest Fraction for the related principal prepayment and such class of certificates, and (z) the aggregate amount of such yield maintenance charge allocated to such YM Group and (B) the amount of such yield maintenance charge allocated to such YM Group and remaining after such distributions will be distributed to the Class X certificates in such YM Group.

Prepayment Premiums

and Yield Maintenance

Charges (continued)

Class X certificates) in either YM Group entitled to distributions of principal on any particular Distribution Date on which yield maintenance charges are distributable to such classes of certificates, the aggregate amount of such yield maintenance charges will be allocated among all such classes of certificates (other than the Class X certificates) up to, and on a pro rata basis in accordance with, their respective entitlements in those yield maintenance charges in accordance with the second sentence of this paragraph.

The “Base Interest Fraction” with respect to any principal prepayment on any mortgage loan and with respect to any class of Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class A-4, Class A-AB, Class A-S, Class B, Class C and Class D certificates is a fraction (a) whose numerator is the amount, if any, by which (i) the pass-through rate on such class of certificates exceeds (ii) the discount rate used in accordance with the related loan documents in calculating the yield maintenance charge with respect to such principal prepayment and (b) whose denominator is the amount, if any, by which (i) the mortgage loan rate on such mortgage loan exceeds (ii) the discount rate used in accordance with the related loan documents in calculating the yield maintenance charge with respect to such principal prepayment; provided, however, that under no circumstances will the Base Interest Fraction be greater than one. If such discount rate is greater than or equal to the lesser of (x) the mortgage loan rate on the prepaid mortgage loan and (y) the pass-through rate described in the preceding sentence, then the Base Interest Fraction will equal zero; provided, however, if such discount rate is greater than or equal to the mortgage loan rate, but less than the pass-through rate, the Base Interest Fraction will be one.

If a prepayment premium is imposed in connection with a prepayment rather than a yield maintenance charge, then the prepayment premium so collected will be allocated as described above. For this purpose, the discount rate used to calculate the Base Interest Fraction will be the discount rate used to determine the yield maintenance charge for mortgage loans that require payment at the greater of a yield maintenance charge or a minimum amount equal to a fixed percentage of the principal balance of the mortgage loan or, for mortgage loans that only have a prepayment premium based on a fixed percentage of the principal balance of the mortgage loan, such other discount rate as may be specified in the related loan documents.

No prepayment premiums or yield maintenance charges will be distributed to holders of the Class X-D, Class E, Class F-RR, Class G-RR, Class S or Class R certificates. Instead, after the notional amounts of the Class X-A and Class X-B certificates and the certificate balances of the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class A-4, Class A-AB, Class A-S, Class B, Class C and Class D certificates have been reduced to zero, all prepayment premiums and yield maintenance charges allocated to the certificateholders will be distributed to holders of the Class X-B certificates. For a description of prepayment premiums and yield maintenance charges required on the mortgage loans, see Annex A to the Preliminary Prospectus. See also “Certain Legal Aspects of Mortgage Loans” in the Preliminary Prospectus. Prepayment premiums and yield maintenance charges will be distributed on any Distribution Date only to the extent they are received in respect of the mortgage loans as of the related Determination Date. See also “Description of the Certificates—Allocation of Yield Maintenance Charges and Prepayment Premiums” in the Preliminary Prospectus.

Non-Serviced Loans

The Marina Heights State Farm, Apple Campus 3, Twelve Oaks Mall, Worldwide Plaza, 90 Fifth Ave, Bass Pro & Cabela’s Portfolio and Starwood Lodging Hotel Portfolio mortgage loans are referred to in this Term Sheet as “non-serviced loans”. The non-serviced loans and related companion loans are being, or are expected to be, serviced and administered in accordance with, and all decisions, consents, waivers, approvals and other actions on the part of the holders of the non-serviced loans and the related companion loans will be, or are expected to be, effected in accordance with, the related Controlling PSA set forth under the “Companion Loan Summary” table above and the related co-lender agreement. Consequently, the servicing provisions set forth in this Term Sheet will generally not be applicable to the non-serviced loans, but instead such servicing and administration of the non-serviced loans will be governed by the related Controlling PSA and the related co-lender agreements. The Controlling PSA provides for servicing in a manner acceptable for rated transactions similar in nature to this securitization. The non-serviced loans are discussed further under “—Whole Loans” below.

Advances

The master servicer and, if it fails to do so, the trustee, will be obligated to make P&I advances with respect to each mortgage loan and, with respect to each serviced mortgage loan and serviced whole loan, servicing advances, including paying delinquent property taxes, condominium assessments, insurance premiums and ground lease rents, but only to the extent that those advances are not deemed non-recoverable from collections on the related serviced mortgage loan (or, if applicable, serviced whole loan) and, in the case of P&I advances, subject to reduction in connection with any appraisal reduction amounts that may occur. Notwithstanding the foregoing, servicing advances for the non-serviced loans will be made by the parties of, and pursuant to, the applicable Controlling PSA (as discussed under “—Whole Loans” below).

A “serviced mortgage loan” is any mortgage loan other than a non-serviced mortgage loan.

STRUCTURAL OVERVIEW (continued)

Appraisal Reduction

Amounts

An appraisal reduction amount generally will be created with respect to a required appraisal loan (which is a serviced mortgage loan or serviced whole loan) as to which certain defaults, modifications or insolvency events have occurred (as further described in the Preliminary Prospectus) in the amount, if any, by which the principal balance of such required appraisal loan, plus other amounts overdue or advanced in connection with such required appraisal loan, exceeds 90% of the appraised value of the related mortgaged property plus certain escrows and reserves (including letters of credit) held with respect to such required appraisal loan. In general, any appraisal reduction amount calculated with respect to a whole loan will be allocated, first, to any related subordinate companion loan, up to its outstanding principal balance, and then, to the related mortgage loan and pari passu companion loan(s) on a pro rata basis in accordance with their respective outstanding principal balances. In the case of any non-serviced loan, any appraisal reduction amounts will be calculated pursuant to, and by a party to, the related Controlling PSA (as discussed under “—Whole Loans” below). As a result of an appraisal reduction amount being calculated for and/or allocated to a given mortgage loan, the interest portion of any P&I advance for such mortgage loan that would otherwise be allocable to the certificates will be reduced, which will have the effect of reducing the amount of interest available for distribution to the most subordinate class(es) of certificates (exclusive of the Class S and Class R certificates) then outstanding (i.e., first, to the Class G-RR certificates, then to the Class F-RR certificates, then to the Class E certificates, then, pro rata based on interest entitlements, to the Class D and Class X-D certificates, then to the Class C certificates, then to the Class B certificates, then to the Class A-S certificates, and then, pro rata based on interest entitlements, to the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class A-4, Class A-AB, Class X-A and Class X-B certificates). In general, a mortgage loan (or whole loan, if applicable) serviced under the pooling and servicing agreement for this transaction will cease to be a required appraisal loan, and no longer be subject to an appraisal reduction amount, when the same has ceased to be a specially serviced loan (if applicable), has been brought current for at least three consecutive months and no other circumstances exist that would cause such mortgage loan (or whole loan, if applicable) to be a required appraisal loan.

At any time an Appraisal is ordered with respect to a property that would result in appraisal reduction amount with respect to a serviced mortgage loan or serviced whole loan, if applicable, that would result in a change in the controlling class, certain certificateholders will have a right to request a new appraisal as described in the Preliminary Prospectus.

Age of Appraisals

Appraisals (which can be an update of a prior appraisal) ordered under the pooling and servicing agreement for this transaction with respect to a mortgaged property are required to be no older than 9 months for purposes of determining appraisal reductions (other than the annual re-appraisal), market value, and other calculations as described in the Preliminary Prospectus.

Sale of Defaulted Loans

There will be no “Fair Market Value Purchase Option,” instead defaulted loans will be sold in a process similar to the sale process for REO property.

Cleanup Call

On any distribution date on which the aggregate unpaid principal balance of the mortgage loans remaining in the issuing entity is less than 1% of the aggregate principal balance of the pool of mortgage loans as of the Cut-off Date, certain specified persons will have the option to purchase all of the remaining mortgage loans (and all property or the issuing entity’s interest therein acquired through exercise of remedies in respect of any mortgage loan) at the price specified in the Preliminary Prospectus. Exercise of the option will terminate the issuing entity and retire the then outstanding certificates.

If the aggregate certificate balances and notional amounts of all certificates senior to the Class F-RR certificates have been reduced to zero, if the master servicer has received the payment specified in the pooling and servicing agreement from the holder (or holders acting unanimously) of the remaining certificates and the RR Interest Owner, the issuing entity could also be terminated in connection with an exchange of all the then-outstanding certificates (excluding the Class S and Class R certificates) and the RR Interest for the mortgage loans and each REO property remaining in the issuing entity.

The depositor has filed a registration statement (including the prospectus) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) (SEC File No. 333-207677) (the “Registration Statement”) for the offering to which this communication relates.

STRUCTURAL OVERVIEW (continued)

Directing Holder /

Controlling Class

Representative

The “Directing Holder” will be (a) with respect to any serviced mortgage loan (other than the Twelve Oaks Mall mortgage loan) and any related serviced companion loan, the Controlling Class Representative, and (b) with respect to the Twelve Oaks Mall Whole Loan, (i) for so long as the outstanding principal balance of the related subordinate companion loan (as notionally reduced by any appraisal reduction amounts or realized losses allocated to such subordinate companion loan) is less than 25% of the initial principal balance of such subordinate companion loan (as reduced by principal payments on such subordinate companion loan) (collectively, the “Twelve Oaks Mall Control Appraisal Period”), the Controlling Class Representative, and (ii) at all other times, the holder of such subordinate companion loan.

The “Controlling Class Representative” will be the controlling class certificateholder (or its representative) selected by a majority of the voting rights of the controlling class (by certificate principal balance). The controlling class is the most subordinate class of the Class F-RR and Class G-RR certificates that has an outstanding certificate balance as notionally reduced by any appraisal reduction amounts and collateral deficiency amounts allocated to such class, that is equal to or greater than 25% of the initial certificate balance of that class of certificates. At any time when Class F-RR is the controlling class, the majority controlling class certificateholder may elect under certain circumstances to opt-out from its rights under the pooling and servicing agreement. See “The Pooling and Servicing Agreement—The Directing Holder” in the Preliminary Prospectus. No other class of certificates will be eligible to act as the controlling class or appoint a Controlling Class Representative.

It is anticipated that RREF III-D AIV RR, LLC (or another affiliate of Rialto Capital Advisors, LLC) is expected to purchase the Class F-RR and Class G-RR certificates, and, on the Closing Date, is expected to appoint itself (or its affiliate) to be the initial Controlling Class Representative. In addition, RREF III Debt AIV, LP (or another affiliate of Rialto Capital Advisors, LLC) is expected to purchase the Class S certificates and may purchase the Class E and certain other classes of certificates.

The initial Directing Holder for the Twelve Oaks Mall Whole Loan is anticipated to be Teachers Insurance and Annuity Association of America, which is anticipated to be the holder of the related subordinate companion loan.

Control/Consultation

Rights

The Directing Holder will have consultation and approval rights with respect to certain major decisions (including with respect to assumptions, waivers, loan modifications and workouts) for so long as no Control Termination Event exists.

A “Control Termination Event” will occur with respect to any serviced mortgage loan (or, with respect to the Twelve Oaks Mall mortgage loan, during the Twelve Oaks Mall Control Appraisal Period) and any related serviced companion loan, when the Class F-RR certificates have an outstanding certificate balance, as notionally reduced by any appraisal reduction amounts and collateral deficiency amounts allocated to such class, that is less than 25% of the initial certificate balance of that class of certificates.

So long as a Control Termination Event does not exist, the Directing Holder will be entitled to direct the special servicer to take, or refrain from taking, certain actions that would constitute major decisions with respect to a serviced mortgage loan and any related serviced companion loan, and will also have the right to notice and to consent to certain material actions that would constitute major decisions that the master servicer or the special servicer plan on taking with respect to a serviced mortgage loan and any related serviced companion loan, subject to the servicing standard and other restrictions as described in the Preliminary Prospectus.

A “Consultation Termination Event” will occur with respect to any serviced mortgage loan (or, with respect to the Twelve Oaks Mall mortgage loan, during the Twelve Oaks Mall Control Appraisal Period) and any related serviced companion loan, when the Class F-RR certificates have an outstanding certificate balance, without regard to the application of any appraisal reductions amounts, that is less than 25% of the initial certificate balance of that class of certificates.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to the non-serviced whole loans, so long as a Consultation Termination Event does not exist, the issuing entity will have consultation rights with respect to certain major decisions (including with respect to assumptions, waivers, loan modifications and workouts) regarding the non-serviced whole loans and the Controlling Class Representative will be entitled to exercise such consultation rights pursuant to the terms of the related intercreditor agreement, and as described under “Description of the Mortgage Pool—The Whole Loans” in the Preliminary Prospectus.

Risk Retention

Consultation Party

The risk retention consultation party will be appointed by the RR Interest Owner. Except with respect to an excluded loan as to such party, the risk retention consultation party will be entitled to consult with the special servicer with respect to certain material servicing actions proposed by the special servicer.

The depositor has filed a registration statement (including the prospectus) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) (SEC File No. 333-207677) (the “Registration Statement”) for the offering to which this communication relates.

Whole Loans

Each pari passu companion loan described below in this section “Whole Loans” is referred to in this Term Sheet as a “pari passu companion loan” and a “companion loan” and the subordinate companion loans described in this section “Whole Loans” is referred to in this Term Sheet as a “subordinate companion loan” and a “companion loan”. Each whole loan or companion loan below in this section “Whole Loans” is also referred to as a “serviced whole loan” or “serviced companion loan” at any time that the Controlling PSA is the GSMS 2018-GS9 pooling and servicing agreement (referred to as the “GSMS 2018-GS9 PSA” in this Term Sheet) and as a “non-serviced whole loan” or “non-serviced companion loan” at any time that the Controlling PSA is not the GSMS 2018-GS9 PSA. See “Companion Loan Summary” table above. Each mortgage loan and the related pari passu companion loans are pari passu in right of payment to each other to the extent described under “Description of the Mortgage Pool—The Whole Loans” in the Preliminary Prospectus.

STRUCTURAL OVERVIEW (continued)

Servicing Standard

Each of the serviced mortgage loans and serviced whole loans will be serviced by the master servicer and the special servicer pursuant to the terms of the GSMS 2018-GS9 PSA. In all circumstances, each of the master servicer and the special servicer is obligated to act in the best interests of the certificateholders and the RR Interest Owner (and, in the case of a serviced whole loan, the holder(s) of the related serviced companion loan(s)) as a collective whole as if such certificateholders and the RR Interest Owner (and, if applicable, such companion loan holder), constituted a single lender (taking into account the pari passu or subordinate nature of any related companion loan(s)). The special servicer is required to determine the effect on net present value of various courses of action (including workout or foreclosure), using the Calculation Rate as the discount rate, and pursue the course of action that it determines would maximize recovery on a net present value basis.

“Calculation Rate” means:

(a)

for principal and interest payments on a mortgage loan or proceeds from the sale of a defaulted loan, the highest of (i) the rate determined by the master servicer or the applicable special servicer, as applicable, that approximates the market rate that would be obtainable by borrowers on similar debt of the borrowers as of such date of determination, (ii) the mortgage loan rate and (iii) the yield on 10-year US treasuries; and

(b)

for all other cash flows, including property cash flow, the “discount rate” set forth in the most recent appraisal (or update of such appraisal).

Termination of

Special Servicer

Except as limited by certain conditions described in the Preliminary Prospectus, prior to the occurrence and continuance of a Control Termination Event, the Directing Holder may replace the special servicer, with or without cause, at any time. After the occurrence and during the continuance of a Control Termination Event, the holders of at least 25% of the voting rights of the certificates (other than the Class S and Class R certificates) may request a vote to replace the special servicer (other than with respect to the non-serviced whole loan). The subsequent vote may result in the termination and replacement of the special servicer if, within 180 days of the initial request for that vote, the holders of (a) at least 75% of a Quorum, or (b) more than 50% of the voting rights of each Class of Non-Reduced Interests vote affirmatively to so replace the special servicer. A “Quorum” means, in connection with any solicitation of votes in connection with the replacement of the special servicer described above or the asset representations reviewer described below, the holders of voting rights evidencing at least 75% of the aggregate voting rights (taking into account the application of realized losses and, other than with respect to the termination of the asset representations reviewer, the application of any appraisal reduction amounts to notionally reduce the certificate balance of the certificates) of the principal balance certificates.

If at any time the operating advisor determines, in its sole discretion exercised in good faith, that (1) the special servicer is not performing its duties as required under the pooling and servicing agreement or is otherwise not acting in accordance with the servicing standard, and (2) the replacement of the special servicer would be in the best interest of the certificateholders and the RR Interest Owner as a collective whole, the operating advisor will be have the right to recommend the replacement of the special servicer. The operating advisor’s recommendation to replace the special servicer must be confirmed within 180 days of after the notice is posted to the certificate administrator’s website by an affirmative vote of holders of voting rights evidencing at least a majority of a quorum (which, for this purpose is the holders that (i) evidence at least 20% of the voting rights (taking into account the application of any appraisal reduction amounts to notionally reduce the respective certificate balances) of all certificates (other than the Class X, Class S and Class R certificates) on an aggregate basis, and (ii) consist of at least 3 certificateholders or certificate owners that are not affiliated with each other).

If the special servicer obtains knowledge that it has become a “borrower party” (as described in the Preliminary Prospectus) with respect to a mortgage loan or whole loan, the special servicer will not be permitted to act as special servicer with respect to that mortgage loan or whole loan. Subject to certain limitations described in the Preliminary Prospectus, the applicable Directing Holder (so long as it is not itself a borrower party and so long as no Control Termination Event has occurred and is continuing) will be entitled to appoint a replacement special servicer for that mortgage loan or whole loan. If the Directing Holder is precluded from appointing a replacement special servicer, a replacement special servicer will be appointed in the manner specified in the pooling and servicing agreement for this transaction.

STRUCTURAL OVERVIEW (continued)

Servicing Compensation

Modification Fees: With respect to the serviced mortgage loans and serviced whole loan certain fees resulting from modifications, amendments, waivers or other changes to the terms of the loan documents, as more fully described in the Preliminary Prospectus, will be used to offset expenses on the related serviced mortgage loan (i.e. reimburse the trust for certain expenses including unreimbursed advances and interest on unreimbursed advances previously incurred (other than special servicing fees, workout fees and liquidation fees) on the related serviced mortgage loan but not yet reimbursed to the trust or servicers) or to pay expenses (other than special servicing fees, workout fees and liquidation fees) that are still outstanding, in each case unless as part of the written modification the related borrower is required to pay these amounts on a going forward basis or in the future. Any excess modification fees not so applied to offset expenses will be available as compensation to the master servicer and/or special servicers. Within any prior 12 month period, all excess modification fees earned by the master servicer or by a special servicer (after taking into account the offset described below applied during such 12-month period) with respect to any serviced mortgage loan will be subject to a cap equal to the greater of (i) 1% of the outstanding certificate balance of such mortgage loan after giving effect to such transaction and (ii) $25,000.

All excess modification fees earned by the special servicer will be required to offset any future workout fees or liquidation fees payable with respect to the related serviced mortgage loan or related REO property; provided, that if the serviced mortgage loan ceases being a corrected loan, and is subject to a subsequent modification, any excess modification fees earned by the special servicer prior to such serviced mortgage loan ceasing to be a corrected loan will no longer be offset against future liquidation fees and workout fees unless such serviced mortgage loan ceased to be a corrected loan within 18 months of it becoming a modified mortgage loan (or modified whole loan, if applicable).

Penalty Fees: All late fees and default interest will first be used to reimburse certain expenses previously incurred with respect to the related serviced mortgage loan (other than special servicing fees, workout fees and liquidation fees) but not yet reimbursed to the trust, the master servicer or the special servicer or to pay certain expenses (other than special servicing fees, workout fees and liquidation fees) that are still outstanding on the related serviced mortgage loan, and any excess received with respect to a serviced mortgage loan will be paid to the master servicer (for penalty fees accrued while a non-specially serviced loan) and the special servicer (for penalty fees accrued while a specially serviced loan). To the extent any amounts reimbursed out of penalty charges are subsequently recovered on a related serviced mortgage loan, they will be paid to the master servicer or special servicer who would have been entitled to the related penalty charges that were previously used to reimburse such expense.

Liquidation / Workout Fees: Liquidation fees will be calculated at the lesser of (a) 1.0% and (b) such lower rate as would result in a liquidation fee of $1,000,000, for each serviced mortgage loan that is a specially serviced loan and any REO property and, in certain circumstances, each serviced mortgage loan that is not a specially serviced mortgage loan, subject in any case to a minimum liquidation fee of $25,000. For any serviced mortgage loan that is a corrected loan, workout fees will be calculated at the lesser of (a) 1.0% and (b) such lower rate as would result in a workout fee of $1,000,000 when applied to each expected payment of principal and interest (other than default interest) on the related serviced mortgage loan from the date such serviced mortgage loan becomes a corrected loan through and including the then related maturity date; or in any case such higher rate as would result in a workout fee of $25,000 when applied to each expected payment of principal and interest (other than default interest) on the related serviced mortgage loan from the date such serviced mortgage loan becomes a corrected loan through and including the then related maturity date.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in connection with a maturity default, no liquidation or workout fee will be payable in connection with a payoff or refinancing of the related serviced mortgage loan within 90 days of the maturity default.

Operating Advisor

The operating advisor will have access to any final asset status report and information available with respect to the transaction on the certificate administrator’s website and will have certain monitoring responsibilities on behalf of the entire issuing entity. After the occurrence and during the continuance of an Operating Advisor Consultation Event, the operating advisor will be entitled to consult with the special servicer with respect to certain major decisions on behalf of the issuing entity and in the best interest of, and for the benefit of, the certificateholders and the RR Interest Owner and, in the case of a serviced whole loan, the related companion loan holder(s), as a collective whole, as if those certificateholders and the RR Interest Owner and, if applicable, such companion loan holder(s) constituted a single lender (taking into account the pari passu or subordinate nature of any related companion loan(s)).

The operating advisor will be subject to termination without cause if the holders of at least 15% of the voting rights of Non-Reduced Interests vote to terminate and replace the operating advisor and such vote is approved by the holders of more than 50% of the voting rights of Non-Reduced Interests that exercise their right to vote, provided that the holders of at least 50% of the voting rights of Non-Reduced Interests have exercised their right to vote. The holders initiating such vote will be responsible for the fees and expenses in connection with the vote and replacement.

An “Operating Advisor Consultation Event” will occur when either (i) the aggregate certificate balance of the HRR Certificates (taking into account the application of any appraisal reduction amounts to notionally reduce the certificate balance of any class of the HRR Certificates) is 25% or less of the initial aggregate Certificate Balance of the HRR Certificates or (ii) a control termination event has occurred and is continuing.

The depositor has filed a registration statement (including the prospectus) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) (SEC File No. 333-207677) (the “Registration Statement”) for the offering to which this communication relates.

STRUCTURAL OVERVIEW (continued)

Asset Representations

Reviewer

The asset representations reviewer will be required to review certain delinquent mortgage loans after a specified delinquency threshold has been exceeded and the required percentage of certificateholders vote to direct a review of such delinquent mortgage loans. The specified delinquency threshold will occur when either (1) mortgage loans with an aggregate outstanding principal balance of 25% or more of the aggregate outstanding principal balance of all of the mortgage loans (including any REO loans (or a portion of any REO loan in the case of a whole loan)) held by the issuing entity as of the end of the applicable collection period are delinquent loans or (2) at least 15 mortgage loans are delinquent loans as of the end of the applicable collection period and the outstanding certificate balance of such delinquent loans in the aggregate constitutes at least 20% of the aggregate outstanding principal balance of all of the mortgage loans (including any REO loans (or a portion of any REO loan in the case of a whole loan)) held by the issuing entity as of the end of the applicable collection period. The asset representations reviewer may be terminated and replaced without cause. Upon (i) the written direction of holders evidencing not less than 25% of the voting rights (taking into account realized losses, but without regard to the application of any appraisal reduction amounts to notionally reduce the certificate balance of the certificates) requesting a vote to terminate and replace the asset representations reviewer with a proposed successor asset representations reviewer that is an eligible asset representations reviewer, and (ii) payment by such holders to the certificate administrator of the reasonable fees and expenses to be incurred by the certificate administrator in connection with administering such vote, the certificate administrator will promptly provide notice to all certificateholders and the asset representations reviewer of such request by posting such notice on its internet website, and by mailing such notice to all certificateholders and the asset representations reviewer. Upon the written direction of holders of voting rights evidencing more than 75% of a Quorum, the Trustee will terminate all of the rights and obligations of the asset representations reviewer under the pooling and servicing agreement by written notice to the asset representations reviewer, and the proposed successor asset representations reviewer will be appointed. See “Pooling and Servicing Agreement—The Asset Representations Reviewer” in the Preliminary Prospectus.

Dispute Resolution

Provisions

The mortgage loan seller will be subject to the dispute resolution provisions set forth in the pooling and servicing agreement to the extent those provisions are triggered with respect to any mortgage loan and the mortgage loan seller will be obligated under the mortgage loan purchase agreement to comply with all applicable provisions and to take part in any mediation or arbitration proceedings that may result. Generally, in the event that a repurchase request as described in the Preliminary Prospectus is not “Resolved” within 180 days after the related mortgage loan seller receives such repurchase request, then the enforcing servicer will be required to send a notice to the initial requesting holder (if any) indicating the enforcing servicer’s intended course of action with respect to the repurchase request. If (a) the enforcing servicer’s intended course of action with respect to the repurchase request does not involve pursuing further action to exercise rights against the mortgage loan seller with respect to the repurchase request and the initial requesting holder, if any, or any other certificateholder or certificate owner wishes to exercise its right to refer the matter to mediation (including nonbinding arbitration) or arbitration, or (b) the enforcing servicer’s intended course of action is to pursue further action to exercise rights against the related mortgage loan seller with respect to the repurchase request but the initial requesting holder, if any, or any other certificateholder or certificate owner does not agree with the dispute resolution method selected by the enforcing servicer, then the initial requesting holder, if any, or such other certificateholder or certificate owner may deliver a written notice to the enforcing servicer indicating its intent to exercise its right to refer the matter to either mediation or arbitration. “Resolved” means, with respect to a repurchase request, (i) that the related material defect has been cured, (ii) the related mortgage loan has been repurchased in accordance with the related mortgage loan purchase agreement, (iii) a mortgage loan has been substituted for the related mortgage loan in accordance with the related mortgage loan purchase agreement, (iv) the mortgage loan seller made the loss of value payment, (v) a contractually binding agreement is entered into between the enforcing servicer, on behalf of the issuing entity, and the mortgage loan seller that settles the related mortgage loan seller’s obligations under the mortgage loan purchase agreement, or (vi) the related mortgage loan is no longer property of the issuing entity as a result of a sale or other disposition in accordance with the pooling and servicing agreement. See “Pooling and Servicing Agreement—Dispute Resolution Provisions” in the Preliminary Prospectus.

Deal Website

The certificate administrator will maintain a deal website including, but not limited to:

—all special notices delivered.

—summaries of final asset status reports.

—all appraisals in connection with an appraisal reduction plus any subsequent appraisal updates.

—an “Investor Q&A Forum” and a voluntary investor registry.

CERTAIN DEFINITIONS

■

“ADR”: For any hospitality property, average daily rate.

■

“Appraised Value”: With respect to each mortgaged property, the most current appraised value of such property as determined by an appraisal of the mortgaged property and in accordance with MAI standards made not more than four months prior to the origination date of the related mortgage loan. The appraisals for certain of the mortgaged properties state a “prospective value upon stabilization” and “prospective market value at completion” or similar value as well as an “as-is” value for such mortgaged properties assuming that certain events will occur with respect to the re-tenanting, renovation or other repositioning of the mortgaged property. With respect to a mortgage loan secured by the portfolio of mortgaged properties, the Appraised Value represents the “as-is” value for the portfolio of mortgaged properties as a collective whole, which may be higher than the aggregate of the “as-is” appraised value of the individual mortgaged properties. For purposes of calculating the Maturity Date/ARD LTV Ratio for certain mortgage loans, the “as stabilized” value of the related mortgaged property is the applicable Appraised Value in this Term Sheet. See “Description of the Mortgage Pool—Certain Calculations and Definitions” in the Preliminary Prospectus for a description of Maturity Date/ARD LTV Ratio.

■

“Borrower Sponsor”: The indirect owner, or one of the indirect owners, of the related borrower (in whole or in part) that may or may not have control of the related borrower. The Borrower Sponsor may be, but is not necessarily, the entity that acts as the guarantor of the non-recourse carveouts.

■

“MSA”: Metropolitan statistical area.

■

“Non-owned Junior Anchor(s)”: Tenants that occupy space equal to or greater than 10,000 SF at the related mortgaged property and less than 30,000 SF at the related mortgaged property, which occupied space is not owned by the related borrower and is not part of the collateral for the related mortgage loan.

■

“Non-owned Outparcel(s)”: Freestanding tenants that occupy space at the property that is separated from the rest of the tenants at the applicable mortgaged property which space occupied by those freestanding tenants is not owned by the related borrower and is not part of the collateral for the related mortgage loan.

“Non-Reduced Interests”: Each class of certificates (other than Class S, Class R or Class X certificates) that has an outstanding certificate balance, as may be notionally reduced by any appraisal reduction amounts and collateral deficiency amounts allocated to that class of certificates, equal to or greater than 25% of an amount equal to the initial certificate balance of that class of certificates minus all principal payments made on such class of certificates.

■

“Occupancy Cost”: With respect to any mortgaged property, total rental revenues divided by total sales.

CERTAIN DEFINITIONS (continued)

■

“Rating Agency Confirmation”: With respect to any matter, confirmation in writing (which may be in electronic form) by the rating agencies engaged by the depositor that a proposed action, failure to act or other event so specified will not, in and of itself, result in the downgrade, qualification or withdrawal of the then current rating assigned by that rating agency to any class of certificates (or, with respect to a matter that affects a serviced whole loan, any companion loan securities). However, such confirmation will be deemed received or not required in certain circumstances as further described in the Preliminary Prospectus.

■

“Soft Springing Hard Lockbox”: An account into which the related borrower is required to deposit, or cause the property manager to deposit, all rents collected until the occurrence of an event of default or one or more specified trigger events under the loan documents, at which time the lockbox account converts to a Hard Lockbox.

■

“Springing Lockbox”: An account that is not currently in place, but the related loan documents require the imposition of a lockbox account upon the occurrence of an event of default or one or more specified trigger events under the loan documents.

■

“Total Occupancy”: With respect to any particular mortgaged property, as of a certain date (or, in the case of a hospitality property, for a trailing 12-month period ending on a certain date), the percentage of net rentable square footage, available rooms, units or pads that are leased or rented (as applicable), for the aggregate leased space, available rooms, units or pads at the property, including any space that is owned by the related borrower and is part of the collateral in addition to any space that is owned by the applicable tenant and not part of the collateral for the related mortgage loan. In some cases Total Occupancy was based on assumptions regarding occupancy, such as the assumption that a certain tenant at the mortgaged property that has executed a lease, but has not yet taken occupancy and / or has not yet commenced paying rent, will take occupancy on a future date generally expected to occur within 12 months after the Cut-off Date, assumptions regarding the execution of leases that are currently under negotiation and are expected to be executed, assumptions regarding the renewal of particular leases, the taking of additional space by tenants that have agreed to do so as described under “Description of the Mortgage Pool—Tenant Issues” in the Preliminary Prospectus to the extent material and / or the assumptions regarding re-leasing of certain space at the related mortgaged property; or, in some cases, the exclusion of dark tenants, tenants with material aged receivables, tenants that may have already given notice to vacate their space, bankrupt tenants that have not yet affirmed their lease and certain additional leasing assumptions.

■

■

“Underwritten Expenses”: With respect to any mortgage loan or mortgaged property, an estimate of operating expenses, as determined by the related originator and generally derived from historical expenses at the mortgaged property(ies), the borrower’s budget or appraiser’s estimate, in some cases adjusted for significant occupancy increases and a market-rate management fee. We cannot assure you that the assumptions made with respect to any mortgaged property will, in fact, be consistent with that mortgaged property’s actual performance.

■

“Underwritten Net Cash Flow (NCF)”: With respect to any mortgage loan or mortgaged property, cash flow available for debt service, generally equal to the Underwritten NOI decreased by an amount that the related originator has determined for tenant improvements and leasing commissions and / or replacement reserves for capital items. Underwritten NCF does not reflect debt service or non-cash items such as depreciation or amortization.

■

“Underwritten Net Operating Income (NOI)”: With respect to any mortgage loan or mortgaged property, Underwritten Revenues less Underwritten Expenses, as both are determined by the related originator, based in part upon borrower supplied information (including but not limited to a rent roll, leases, operating statements and budget) for a recent period which is generally the 12 months prior to the origination date or acquisition date of the mortgage loan adjusted for specific property, tenant and market considerations. Historical operating statements may not be available for newly constructed mortgaged properties, mortgaged properties with triple net leases, mortgaged properties that have recently undergone substantial renovations and/or newly acquired mortgaged properties.

■

“Underwritten Revenues”: With respect to any mortgage loan or mortgaged property, an estimate of operating revenues, as determined by the related originator and generally derived from the rental revenue based on leases in place, leases that have been executed but the tenant is not yet paying rent, in certain cases leases that are being negotiated and are expected to be signed, in certain cases leases that provide for a tenant to take additional space as described under “Description of the Mortgage Pool—Tenant Issues” in the Preliminary Prospectus to the extent material, and in certain cases contractual rent increases generally within 14 months past the Cut-off Date (or with respect to the Apple Campus 3 mortgage loan, contractual rent steps represent the average over the lease term which expires in February 2031), in certain cases certain appraiser estimates of rental income, and in some cases adjusted downward to market rates, with vacancy rates equal to the mortgaged property’s historical rate, current rate, market rate or an assumed vacancy as determined by the related originator; plus any additional recurring revenue fees. Additionally, in determining rental revenue for multifamily rental, manufactured housing community and self storage properties, the related originator generally either reviewed rental revenue shown on the certified rolling 12-month operating statements or annualized the rental revenue and reimbursement of expenses shown on rent rolls or recent partial year operating statements with respect to the prior one- to 12-month period or in some cases may have relied on information provided in the appraisal for market rental rates and vacancy. In certain cases, with respect to mortgaged properties with leases with rent increases during the term of the related mortgage loan, Underwritten Revenues were based on the weighted average rent over the term of the mortgage loan. In certain cases, the related originator included revenue otherwise payable by a tenant but for the existence of an initial “free rent” period or a permitted rent abatement while the leased space is built out. We cannot assure you that the assumptions made with respect to any mortgaged property will, in fact, be consistent with that mortgaged property’s actual performance.

The Mortgaged Property. The Marina Heights State Farm Property is an approximately 2.03 million SF office campus located in Tempe, Arizona consisting of approximately (i) 1.97 million SF of office space, (ii) approximately 58,000 SF of dining, retail, and wellness space, and (iii) approximately 8,000 SF of management space. The Marina Heights State Farm Property is situated on approximately 20 acres of land located on the Rio Salado Parkway between Arizona State University and Tempe Town Lake, with access to Loop 202 and the Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport located approximately four miles from the Marina Heights State Farm Property. The Marina Heights State Farm Property consists of five office buildings that were built-to-suit as a super-regional headquarters for State Farm in 2015 through 2017 to serve the southwestern United States markets and are completely leased to State Farm pursuant to five separate triple net leases averaging more than 20 years, with annual 2.0% rent escalations and with the option to renew each lease for up to 20 additional years. The approximately 58,000 SF of dining, retail and wellness space is located on the ground floors of two separate office buildings. State Farm has taken occupancy in each of the five buildings and all in-place retail tenants have taken occupancy. The State Farm leases require the tenant to reimburse operating expenses at the Marina Heights State Farm Property. State Farm is an insurance company, with investment grade credit ratings of AA from S&P.

The Marina Heights State Farm Property was delivered to State Farm in 2015 through 2017 to meet the company’s need for a state-of-the-art campus to accommodate the consolidation of approximately 10,000 employees from across the southwest region. As part of this strategy, the Marina Heights State Farm Property was developed as a Class A office campus offering modern finishes and flexible office configurations for office, conference and training needs. The Marina Heights State Farm Property also offers retail, dining, and wellness amenities for employees and 7,991 parking spaces (approximately 3.9 spaces per 1,000 SF). The Marina Heights State Farm Property has large, raised floor plates, raised ceilings, modern building systems, along with marble and natural hardwood lobby accents and ground floor café and restaurant tenants. Furthermore, the campus offers access to Loop 202 and is approximately four miles from the Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport. The Marina Heights State Farm Property is also expected to be a future stop for the Tempe Streetcar (which is in an initial construction phase and is not expected to be completed prior to 2020), which is anticipated to provide access to the airport, downtown and central Phoenix, and west Mesa via the Valley Metro Light Rail.

■

Escrows. On each due date, during the continuance of a Marina Heights State Farm Trigger Period or after the ARD, the borrower is required to fund certain reserve accounts including but not limited to (i) a tax, ground rent and insurance reserve in an amount equal to one-twelfth of the amount that the lender reasonably estimates will be necessary to pay taxes, ground rent and insurance premiums over the then succeeding 12-month period (which will also be required to be funded following any failure of State Farm to pay all required taxes and insurance payments when due), (ii) a tenant improvements and leasing commissions reserve in an amount equal to $338,549 and (iii) a capital expenditure reserve in an amount equal to $50,782.

In addition, on each due date (a) during the continuance of a Marina Heights State Farm Trigger Period, (b) during the continuance of an event of default under the Marina Heights State Farm Whole Loan or (c) after the ARD, the related loan documents require an excess cash flow reserve as discussed under “—Lockbox and Cash Management” below. On the ARD, if the Marina Heights State Farm Whole Loan has not been repaid in full, any amounts then contained in the excess cash flow reserve are required to be applied toward prepayment of the Marina Heights State Farm Whole Loan.

A “Marina Heights State Farm Trigger Period” means any period during which (i) State Farm is in default under any lease beyond any applicable notice and cure period, (ii) State Farm is rated below Baa3 by Moody’s (to the extent that Moody’s is then rating State Farm) or BBB- by S&P, (iii) State Farm has surrendered, cancelled or terminated any of the State Farm leases or given written notice of its intent to surrender, cancel or terminate any of State Farm leases, (iv) State Farm fails to continuously occupy at least 50.0% of the aggregate space demised by all of the State Farm leases, or (v) State Farm is the subject of a voluntary or involuntary bankruptcy proceeding or the subject of any other proceeding under any reorganization, arrangement, adjustment of debt, relief of creditors, dissolution, insolvency or similar law of any jurisdiction or State Farm has otherwise dissolved, been adjudicated insolvent or bankrupt or made a general assignment for the benefit of creditors. A Trigger Period will no longer be continuing if a replacement tenant or replacement tenants that are each rated Baa3 or better by Moody’s and BBB- or better by S&P and have assumed the obligations of State Farm under its leases or have entered into a replacement lease(s) for the State Farm space.

■

Lockbox and Cash Management. The Marina Heights State Farm Whole Loan is structured with a hard lockbox and springing cash management. The related loan documents require the borrower to direct tenants to pay rent directly to a lender-controlled lockbox account and all cash revenues relating to the Marina Heights State Farm Property and all other money received by the borrower or the property manager with respect to the Marina Heights State Farm Property (other than tenant security deposits required to be held in escrow accounts) be deposited into such lockbox account or cash management account within one business day of receipt. Prior to the ARD, for so long as no Marina Heights State Farm Trigger Period or event of default under the Marina Heights State Farm Loan is continuing, all funds in the lockbox account are required to be swept into a borrower-controlled operating account on a daily basis. During the continuance of a Marina Heights State Farm Trigger Period, after the ARD or the continuance of an event of default under the Marina Heights State Farm Whole Loan, all funds in the lockbox account are required to be swept into a lender-controlled cash management account on a daily basis and all amounts on deposit in the cash management account after payment of debt service, required reserves (if the lender so elects, with respect to the continuance of an event of default) and operating expenses, are required to be reserved in an excess cash flow reserve account as additional collateral.

■

Property Management. The Marina Heights State Farm Property is currently managed by Transwestern Commercial Services Arizona L.L.C. pursuant to a management agreement. Under the related loan documents, the Marina Heights State Farm Property is required to remain managed by Transwestern Commercial Services Arizona L.L.C., a property manager meeting the qualifications set forth in in the related loan documents, or any other management company approved by the lender in accordance with the related loan documents and with respect to which a Rating Agency Confirmation has been received. The lender has the right to replace, or require the borrower to replace, the property manager and require the borrower to engage a property manager selected by the borrower (unless otherwise provided in the related loan documents), subject to the lender’s reasonable approval, (i) during the continuance of an event of default under the Marina Heights State Farm Whole Loan, (ii)

■

Additional Debt. The loan documents permit unsecured partner loans made to Corporate Properties Trust III, L.P. or any entity that owns a direct or indirect interest in Corporate Properties Trust III, L.P. if the borrower has no obligations thereunder. See “Description of the Mortgage Pool—Additional Indebtedness—Other Unsecured Indebtedness” in the Preliminary Prospectus.

■

Ground Lease. The borrower’s interest with respect to the Marina Heights State Farm Property is through a ground lease with the Arizona Board of Regents, a body corporate, for and on behalf of Arizona State University (the “Ground Lessor”) that commenced on August 16, 2013 and expires on August 16, 2112 (the “Ground Lease”). The borrower has one option to renew for a period of no fewer than 25 and no more than 99 years. The Ground Lease is structured with seven separate phases corresponding to the seven buildings. No rent payments are due with respect to any phase under the ground lease until the 8th anniversary of the day the first certificate of occupancy was issued for such phase. The rent commencement dates for the phases begin on October 13, 2023 and the final phase rent commences March 3, 2025. The maximum ground rent expense once rent commences for all phases is $4,375,033 per annum. There are no contractual ground lease increases. $30,905,569 of rent has previously been paid to the Ground Lessor. In addition to ground rent, the Ground Lease requires the tenant to cover certain additional costs and expenses, including but not limited to:

— annual payments to the City of Tempe, which includes a set of annual payments calculated on gross building space and number of office floors (a portion of these payments fund K-12 city schools) and a $309,315 annual municipal services fee;

— annual payments to the Rio Salado Community Facilities District equal to the Ground Lessor’s proportionate share of maintaining the adjacent public lake and park; and

— all taxes, assessments, utility fees or other charges imposed upon or that are a lien on the Marina Heights State Farm Property or the improvements. For example, pending the execution of the Streetcar Development Agreement in order to develop the Streetcar project, the borrower will be required to pay annual payments of $210,125.30 for 20 years, totaling an aggregate payment of $4,202,506.

The Marina Heights State Farm Property is exempt from property taxes because the Ground Lessor is a tax exempt government agency. The Ground Lease prohibits the Ground Lessor from transferring the fee to any entity that is not the State of Arizona or a political subdivision thereof that is exempt from property taxes.

■

Condominium. The Marina Heights State Farm Property has been divided into multiple condominium units. On the origination date the borrower represented that every condominium unit was owned by the borrower and was part of the collateral by way of the condominium units being part of the ground leasehold interest in the Marina Heights State Farm Property held by the borrower. The borrower further represented it owned 100% of the undivided interests in the common elements of the condominium, that the condominium units owned by the borrower were the only condominium units in the condominium, and that it controls 100% of the condominium association.

■

Terrorism Insurance. The borrower is required to maintain terrorism insurance in an amount equal to the full replacement cost of the Marina Heights State Farm Property, as well as 18 months of rental loss and/or business interruption coverage, together with a 12-month extended period of indemnity following restoration. If TRIPRA is no longer in effect, then the borrower’s requirement with respect to terrorism insurance will be capped at insurance premiums equal to two times the amount of the insurance premium payable in respect of the property and business interruption/rental loss insurance required under the related loan documents (without giving effect to the cost of terrorism and earthquake components of such casualty and business interruption/rental loss insurance). See “Risk Factors—Terrorism Insurance May Not Be Available for All Mortgaged Properties” in the Preliminary Prospectus.

The appraisal also provided a “prospective market value at completion” of $701,400,000 as of December 1, 2017, which assumes construction of the Apple Campus 3 Property was completed. As the conditions for completion were satisfied on December 1, 2017, the Appraised Value and related LTV calculations for the Apple Campus 3 Property reflects the “prospective market value at completion” unless otherwise stated herein. The appraiser also concluded to a “go dark” value of $566,750,000 as of November 7, 2017. Additionally, the appraisal also provided a “prospective market value at stabilization” value of $773,600,000 which assumes that contractual TI/LC obligations have been fulfilled and there is no outstanding free rent. The borrower deposited upfront reserves totaling $45,779,915 for such contractual TI/LC obligations and free rent (see “—Escrows” below).

■

Environmental Matters. According to a Phase I environmental report, dated November 20, 2017, the report identified a recognized environmental condition relating to soil gas and groundwater potentially being impacted by certain volatile organic compounds and other petroleum-related compounds. The volatile organic compounds detected in soil gas appear to be attributable to offsite sources that likely extends under the Apple Campus 3 Property from several upgradient sources in the vicinity and a nearby superfund site. In addition, based on a review of a 2017 “Draft” Soil Management Plan (“SMP”), prepared for the Apple Campus 3 Property, residual soil impacts from prior agricultural orchard operations have been identified, which consists of pesticides and arsenic above the unrestricted landfill disposal criteria. In addition, low levels of volatile organic compounds may be present in groundwater. According to the Draft SMP, a vapor intrusion membrane system (“VIMS”) has been installed underneath a portion of the Apple Campus 3 Property. Based on the presence of residual soil impacts and possible vapor intrusion concerns, they are considered a recognized environmental condition. The Phase I environmental report recommended the continued implementation of the SMP and vapor intrusion barrier.

The entities that own Twelve Oaks Mall and certain other Taubman assets are guarantors under Taubman’s primary unsecured revolving credit facility (net balance of $355 million as of September 30, 2017), $475 million unsecured term loan, and $300 million unsecured term loan, and are unencumbered assets under such facility and term loans. The proceeds of the Twelve Oaks Mall Whole Loan were used to repay a portion of the outstanding corporate loan, fund reserves and pay origination costs. As of February 28, 2018, the Twelve Oaks Mall Property was no longer included in the pool of assets supporting the aforementioned unsecured loans and the related guaranties had been released.

ESA Portfolio

On each due date, the borrowers are required to fund (i) a tax and insurance reserve in an amount equal to one-twelfth of the amount that the lender reasonably estimates will be necessary to pay taxes and insurance premiums over the then succeeding 12-month period, unless in the case of insurance premiums, the borrowers are maintaining a blanket policy in accordance with the related loan documents and there is no continuing event of default, and upon request of the lender, the borrowers provide evidence of renewals of such policies and payment of related premiums, and (ii) an FF&E reserve in the amount of the greater of (1) the monthly amount required to be reserved for the replacement of furniture, fixtures and equipment pursuant to the franchise agreement or (2) one-twelfth of 4% of the operating income for the ESA Portfolio Properties for the previous 12-month period (as determined on the last day of February of each year).

In addition, on each due date during the continuance of an ESA Portfolio Trigger Period or an event of default under the ESA Portfolio Loan, the related loan documents require an excess cash flow reserve as discussed under “—Lockbox and Cash Management” below.

An “ESA Portfolio Trigger Period” means any period (i) commencing when the debt yield as of the conclusion of any fiscal quarter falls below 10.4% until (a) the debt yield as of the conclusion of a single fiscal quarter is equal to or greater than 10.4% or (b) there is no existing event of default and the borrowers deposit with the lender a letter of credit in an amount that would cause the debt yield to exceed 10.4%, (ii) if monthly, quarterly or annual financial reports required under the related loan documents are not delivered to the lender when required until such reports are delivered and they indicate that no ESA Portfolio Trigger Period is ongoing and (iii) during the continuance of a Franchise Trigger Event.

A “Franchise Trigger Event” means any period (i) when the franchise agreement or management agreement, as applicable, is no longer is in full force and effect as to more than two of the ESA Portfolio Properties until a replacement franchise agreement or management agreement is in full force and effect, (ii) when more than two of the ESA Portfolio Properties are removed from the “Extended Stay America” brand, until such ESA Portfolio Properties are rebranded as “Extended Stay America” or as a comparable or better brand or (iii) the implementation of a property improvement plan (“PIP”) for any ESA Portfolio Property if the amount is in excess of $50,000 or if the aggregate amount of all required PIP for all affected Properties is in excess of $250,000, whether as a condition to entering a replacement franchise agreement with ESH Strategies Franchise LLC and/or management agreement with ESA Management LLC or another franchisor or licensor acceptable to the lender or the extension of the existing franchise agreement and/or management agreement, as applicable until (a) deposits are made in amounts equal to the estimated costs to complete any PIP within 10 business days of the implementation of such PIP or (b) evidence satisfactory to the lender in its sole discretion confirming that all PIP has been completed to the satisfaction of ESA Management LLC or the replacement franchisor, as applicable.

■

Lockbox and Cash Management. The ESA Portfolio Loan is structured with a hard lockbox and springing cash management. The related loan documents require the borrowers to require that all credit card receivables be remitted directly into the lockbox account and all cash revenues relating to the ESA Portfolio Properties and all other money received by the borrowers or the property manager with respect to the ESA Portfolio Properties (other than tenant security deposits) be deposited into such lockbox account or the cash management account once per week following receipt. For so long as no ESA Portfolio Trigger Period or event of default is continuing, all funds in the lockbox account are required to be swept into a borrower-controlled operating account on a daily basis. During the continuance of a ESA Portfolio Trigger Period or event of default, all funds in the lockbox account are required to be swept into a lender-controlled cash management account on a daily basis and all amounts on deposit in the cash management account after payment of debt service, required reserves and operating expenses, are required to be reserved in an excess cash flow reserve account as additional collateral.

U.S. INDUSTRIAL PORTFOLIO

■

Lockbox and Cash Management. The U.S. Industrial Portfolio Whole Loan is structured with a hard lockbox and springing cash management. The related loan documents require the borrower to direct tenants to pay rent directly to a lender-controlled lockbox account and all cash revenues relating to the U.S. Industrial Portfolio Properties and all other money received by the borrower, guarantors, a master lease party or the property manager with respect to the U.S. Industrial Portfolio Properties (other than tenant security deposits required to be held in escrow accounts) be deposited into such lockbox account or cash management account within one business day of receipt. For so long as no U.S. Industrial Portfolio Trigger Period or event of default under the U.S. Industrial Portfolio Whole Loan is continuing, all funds in the lockbox account are required to be swept into a borrower-controlled operating account on a daily basis. During the continuance of a U.S. Industrial Portfolio Trigger Period or event of default under the U.S. Industrial Portfolio Whole Loan, all funds in the lockbox account are required to be swept into the cash management account on a daily basis and all amounts on deposit in the cash management account after payment of debt service, required reserves (if the lender so elects, with respect to the continuance of an event of default) and operating expenses are required to be reserved in an excess cash flow reserve account.

■

Master Lease. The mortgage loan was structured with a master lease to be a Shari’ah compliant loan. Title to the related U.S. Industrial Portfolio Properties is held by wholly-owned single purpose subsidiaries of the borrower (the “Property Owners”), who master lease each related U.S. Industrial Portfolio Property to a single-purpose master lessee, which is indirectly owned by certain investors. The rent payable pursuant to the master lease is intended to cover the debt service payments required under the U.S. Industrial Portfolio Whole Loan, as well as reserve payments and any other sums due under the U.S. Industrial Portfolio Whole Loan. At origination, the lender received a fee mortgage from each Property Owner on its interest in the applicable U.S. Industrial Portfolio Property. The lender also secured a full subordination of the master lease and related operating lease. See “Description of the Mortgage Pool-Shari’ah Compliant Lending Structure” in the Preliminary Prospectus.

■

Operating Lease. An affiliate of the non-recourse carveout guarantor, SC USIP Operating Company, LLC (“Operating Lessee”), a single-purpose entity, leases the U.S. Industrial Portfolio Properties from the Master Lessees pursuant to a sublease agreement (the “Operating Lease”). The Operating Lessee, in turn, sub sub-leases the U.S. Industrial Portfolio Properties to end-user tenants. The Operating Lease is subordinate to the lien of the mortgages and the Operating Lease and the rent due thereunder are pledged to the lender as additional collateral for the U.S. Industrial Portfolio Loan under the mortgages. Upon foreclosure, the lender may terminate the Operating Lease and the Master Lease at its sole option without the payment of any termination fee and, pursuant to subordination non-disturbance and attornment agreements with each of the end-user tenants, can enter into a direct lease with such end-user tenants at the U.S. Industrial Portfolio Properties.

■

Release of Collateral. Provided no event of default under the U.S. Industrial Portfolio Whole Loan has occurred and is continuing, the borrower and its subsidiaries have the right after the earlier to occur of (i) the second anniversary of the closing date of the securitization into which the last U.S. Industrial Portfolio Companion Loan is deposited and (ii) the third anniversary of the origination of the U.S. Industrial Portfolio Whole Loan to obtain release of one or more of the U.S. Industrial Portfolio Properties subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, including, among others: (i) delivery of defeasance collateral in an amount equal to 115% of the allocated loan amount of the individual U.S. Industrial Portfolio Properties, (ii) after giving effect to such release, the debt service coverage ratio (calculated in accordance with the related loan documents) for the trailing 12-month period, recalculated to include only income and expense attributable to the portion of the U.S. Industrial Portfolio Properties remaining after the contemplated release and to exclude the interest expense on the aggregate amount defeased in connection with such release, is equal to or greater than the greater of (x) 2.23x and (y) the lesser of (i) 2.33x and (ii) debt service coverage ratio immediately prior to such release, and (iii) compliance with REMIC requirements.

■

In addition, Goldman Sachs Mortgage Company (regardless of whether it is then the lender), or its designee has a right of first refusal in connection with such permitted mezzanine debt. See “Description of the Mortgage Pool—Additional Indebtedness—Mezzanine Indebtedness” in the Preliminary Prospectus.

■

Terrorism Insurance. The borrower is required to maintain terrorism insurance in an amount equal to the full replacement cost of the U.S. Industrial Portfolio Properties, as well as 12 months of rental loss and/or business interruption coverage, together with a six-month extended period of indemnity following restoration. If TRIPRA is no longer in effect, then the borrower’s requirement will be capped at insurance premiums equal to two times the amount of insurance premiums payable in respect of the property and business interruption/rental loss insurance required under the related loan documents. See “Risk Factors—Terrorism Insurance May Not Be Available for All Mortgaged Properties” in the Preliminary Prospectus.

The Mortgage Loan. The mortgage loan (the “Brunswick Commons Loan”) is evidenced by a note in the original principal amount of $63,000,000 and is secured by a first mortgage encumbering the borrower’s fee simple interest in an anchored retail property in East Brunswick, New Jersey (the “Brunswick Commons Property”).

The note evidencing the Brunswick Commons Loan has an outstanding principal balance as of the Cut-off Date of $63,000,000 and an interest rate of 4.3835% per annum.

The Borrowers. The borrowers, six tenants-in-common, are Norvin Pin Oak North LLC, Norvin Pin Oak North II LLC, Norvin Pin Oak North III LLC, Norvin Pin Oak North IV LLC, Norvin Pin Oak North V LLC and Norvin Pin Oak North VI LLC, each a Delaware limited liability company and single-purpose entity. Legal counsel to the borrowers delivered a non-consolidation opinion in connection with the origination of the Pin Oak North Medical Office Loan. The non-recourse carveout guarantor is Norman Livingston, an indirect owner of the borrowers.

■

Escrows. On the origination date, the borrowers funded a tax reserve in the amount of $213,830.

On each due date, the borrowers are required to fund (i) a tax and insurance reserve in an amount equal to one-twelfth of the amount that the lender reasonably estimates will be necessary to pay taxes and insurance premiums over the then succeeding 12-month period, unless in the case of insurance premiums, the borrowers are maintaining a blanket policy in accordance with the related loan documents and there is no continuing event of default, and the borrowers provide evidence of payment of related premiums, (ii) a tenant improvements and leasing commissions reserve in the amount of $29,294, subject to a cap of $1,054,584 and (iii) a capital expenditure reserve in the amount of approximately $7,324.

In addition, on each due date during the continuance of a Pin Oak North Medical Office Trigger Period or an event of default under the Pin Oak North Medical Office Loan, the related loan documents require an excess cash flow reserve as discussed under “—Lockbox and Cash Management” below, unless the borrowers have deposited with lender a letter of credit in order to prevent a DSCR Trigger Event from occurring.

A “Pin Oak North Medical Office Trigger Period” means any period (i) commencing as of the last day of any 12-month period ending on the last day of a fiscal quarter during which the debt service coverage ratio (as calculated under the related loan documents) is less than 1.20x (which has not been cured by the borrowers posting cash or a letter of credit), until the debt service coverage ratio is equal to or greater than 1.20x for two consecutive fiscal quarters and (ii) if monthly, quarterly or annual financial reports required under the related loan documents are not delivered to the lender when required until such reports are delivered and they indicate that no Pin Oak North Medical Office Portfolio Trigger Period is ongoing.

■

Lockbox and Cash Management. The Pin Oak North Medical Office Loan is structured with a hard lockbox and in-place cash management. The related loan documents require the borrowers to direct tenants to pay rent directly to a lender-controlled lockbox account and all cash revenues relating to the Pin Oak North Medical Office Property and all other money received by the borrowers or the property manager with respect to the Pin Oak North Medical Office Property (other than tenant security deposits) be deposited into such lockbox account or the cash management account by the end of the third business day following receipt. All funds in the lockbox account are required to be swept into the cash management account at the end of each business day. For so long as no Pin Oak North Medical Office Trigger Period or event of default under the Pin Oak North Medical Office Loan is continuing, all funds in the cash management account in excess of those required to pay amounts due to the lender on the next due date (including any applicable reserves) are required to be swept into a borrower-controlled operating account on a daily basis. On each due date during the continuance of a Pin Oak North Medical Office Trigger Period or, at the lender’s discretion, during an event of default under the Pin Oak North Medical Office Loan, the related loan documents require that all amounts on deposit in the cash management account be used to pay debt service, required reserves and operating expenses, and that all remaining amounts be reserved in an excess cash flow reserve account.

The depositor has filed a registration statement (including the prospectus) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) (SEC File No. 333-207677) (the “Registration Statement”) for the offering to which this communication relates.

■

Unsecured Debt. As of the origination date, equity interests in three of the borrowers are held by a qualified intermediary in order to facilitate a reverse like-kind exchange. The membership interests are pledged by the qualified intermediary to investors in a 1031 exchange as collateral for loans made to the borrowers by such investors. The loan amount equals in the exact amount of the capital contributions ultimately to be made by the investors for their interest in the Pin Oak North Medical Office Property. Such amounts will be repaid out of the proceeds from the relinquished property that is part of the 1031 exchange or, if the related exchange is not completed within 185 days of the origination date, the debt obligation will automatically convert to an equity position in the borrowers. The loans are subject to a subordination and standstill agreement in favor of the lender.

■

Terrorism Insurance. The borrowers are required to maintain terrorism insurance in an amount equal to the full replacement cost of the Pin Oak North Medical Office Property, as well as 18 months of rental loss and/or business interruption coverage, together with a six month extended period of indemnity following restoration.

Escrows. The loan documents require the borrowers to fund the following monthly reserves during a Worldwide Plaza Trigger Period:

— Basic Carrying Costs Reserve: 1/12th of property taxes and insurance premiums reasonably estimated by the lender.

— Tenant Improvements Reserve: Approximately $2.00 per SF per annum on the rentable square footage of 1,693,382 at the Worldwide Plaza Property, subject to a cap of $10 million.

— Capital Expenditure Reserve: Approximately $0.25 per SF per annum on the gross square footage, subject to a cap of $2.5 million.

— Excess Cash Flow Reserve: all remaining excess cash flow after payment of debt service (including any applicable Mezzanine Loan debt service if no mortgage event of default is continuing) required reserves, operating expenses and capital expenditures (pursuant to an approved annual budget, for emergency expenditures, or as otherwise approved by the lender).

The borrowers are permitted at their election to substitute one or more letters of credit in lieu of cash reserves (other than for the excess cash flow reserve). The aggregate letters of credit and guaranties in lieu of reserves as described above and below with respect to the Cravath Reserve may not exceed $120,000,000 (the “Affiliate Support Limit”).

A “Cravath Rollover Reserve” beginning 12 months prior to the lease expiration of Cravath in August 2024, if a new or renewed Cravath lease has not been executed for all or substantially all of such space, or all or substantially all of the space leased by Cravath has not been re-leased, in each case in accordance with the terms of the loan agreement (a “Cravath Reserve Period”), the lender will trap all excess cash flow after debt service (including for any applicable mezzanine loans), operating expenses and capital expenditures (and, during a Worldwide Plaza Trigger Period, required reserves) until a reserve equal $42,286,860 has been accumulated. The borrowers are permitted to substitute a letter of credit or qualifying guaranty in lieu of cash reserves in an amount up to the amount that would not violate the Affiliate Support Limit. Upon the borrowers reletting at least 75% of such square footage, amounts in the Cravath Rollover Reserve in excess of the sum of (x) $100 per SF of space that has not been relet plus (y) any related unpaid tenant improvement costs, leasing commissions and free rent obligations under the replacement leases will be released to the borrowers.

A “Worldwide Plaza Trigger Period” means any period (a) when the debt yield as of the first day of any fiscal quarter based on the net operating income is less than 5.50% until the debt yield as of the first day of any fiscal quarter is at least 5.50%, (b) at the lender’s option, if certain financial statements required to be delivered by the borrowers are not delivered until such financials statements are delivered and reflect that no Worldwide Plaza Trigger Period pursuant to clause (a) is ongoing or (c) upon any event of default under a mezzanine loan until cured. The borrowers may cure a Worldwide Plaza Trigger Period under clause (a) by delivering cash, a letter of credit or a guaranty meeting certain requirements to post as additional collateral.

■

Lockbox and Cash Management. The Office Tower portion of the collateral securing the Worldwide Plaza Whole Loan is structured with a hard lockbox and springing cash management. The related loan documents require the borrowers to direct tenants to pay rent directly to a lender-controlled lockbox account and all cash revenues relating to the Worldwide Plaza Property and all other money received by the borrowers or the property manager with respect to the Worldwide Plaza Property (other than tenant security deposits) be deposited into such lockbox account by the end of the first business day following receipt. If no event of default or Worldwide Plaza Trigger Period is continuing, on each business day, all amounts in such lockbox account will be released to the borrowers’ operating account. On each business day during the continuance of an event of default under the Worldwide Plaza Whole Loan, a Cravath Reserve Period or a Worldwide Plaza Trigger Period, all funds in the lockbox account (less any required minimum balance) will be swept into a lender controlled cash management account and on each due date during the continuance of a Worldwide Plaza Trigger Period, Cravath Reserve Period or, at the lender’s discretion, during an event of default under the Worldwide Plaza Whole Loan, the related loan documents require that all amounts on deposit in the cash management account be used to pay debt service, required reserves and operating expenses, and that all remaining amounts be reserved in an excess cash flow reserve account.

The Mortgaged Property. The 90 Fifth Avenue Property is a 139,921 SF office/retail mixed use property located in New York, New York. The 90 Fifth Avenue Property was constructed in 1903 and renovated in 2016. The borrower sponsors indirectly acquired the 90 Fifth Avenue Property in 2000 from Forbes Inc through the acquisition of the leasehold interest followed by the acquisition of the fee interest. The 90 Fifth Avenue Property was fully leased from 2000 until 2013 when the 90 Fifth Avenue Property’s anchor tenant, Forbes Inc, defaulted on its lease and vacated nine floors of office space (floors 3 through 11). The borrower sponsors began a comprehensive renovation of approximately $13 million ($92 per SF) to modernize and reposition the 90 Fifth Avenue Property within the Midtown South market.

The 90 Fifth Avenue Property is 92.5% leased as of February 9, 2018 to three tenants: Urban Compass, Inc., TD Bank (retail branch) and AltSchool II, LLC.

The 90 Fifth Avenue Property is located on the northwest corner of West 14th Street and Fifth Avenue in the Union Square District, which is populated by media, architecture, technology and publishing firms. At the center of the district, Union Square Park features tree-lined paths, historic monuments and a popular farmer’s market.

As of February 9, 2018, the 90 Fifth Avenue Property was 92.5% leased based on SF to two office and one retail tenants. The tenants by SF are Urban Compass, Inc. (a real estate brokerage firm) (81.1% of SF, 76.9% of underwritten base rent), AltSchool II, LLC (education program that offers project based learning tailored to student’s progression) (8.6% of SF, 10.2% of underwritten base rent), and TD Bank (2.8% of SF, 12.9% of underwritten base rent).

■

■

Market Overview and Competition. The 90 Fifth Avenue Property is located on the northwest corner of West 14th Street and Fifth Avenue in the Madison/Union Square office submarket of Midtown South Manhattan. The Madison/Union Square submarket is populated by media, architecture, technology and publishing firms. At the center of the district, Union Square Park features tree-lined paths, historic monuments and a popular farmer’s market.

Midtown South is Manhattan’s smallest office market with 67.2 million SF of office space. The market is geographically segmented into five major submarkets: SoHo, Greenwich Village/NoHo, Madison/Union Square, Hudson Square/West Village, and Chelsea. Businesses in the fashion, art, advertising and high-tech industries have been migrating to Midtown South because many of the buildings cater to these companies. As opposed to the glass towers of Midtown, many buildings in Midtown South are old loft spaces. These are typically more desirable to creative industries because they provide open floor plans that can be utilized in many different ways, and create an open working environment. The market has only 49 Class A office buildings totaling 21.4 million SF. In comparison, Midtown has 295 Class A office buildings for a total of 181.5 million SF and Downtown has 51 office buildings totaling 54.1 million SF.

As of the first quarter of 2017, the Madison/Union Square office submarket consisted of approximately 32.1 million SF of office space and had a direct vacancy rate of 5.3% and overall weighted average asking rents of $68.80 per SF and direct weighted average Class A rents of $84.23 per SF.

Below is a detailed chart, as of the first quarter of 2017, of the Midtown South Office space:

SUMMARY OF CERTAIN RISK FACTORS

Investors should review the Preliminary Prospectus and the Registration Statement, including the description of risk factors contained in the Preliminary Prospectus and the Registration Statement, prior to making a decision to invest in the certificates offered by this Term Sheet. The Preliminary Prospectus and the Registration Statement will include more complete descriptions of the risks described below as well as additional risks relating to, among other things, risks related to specific mortgage loans and specific property types. Any decision to invest in the offered certificates should be made after reviewing the Preliminary Prospectus and the Registration Statement, conducting such investigations as the investor deems necessary and consulting the investor’s own legal, accounting and tax advisors in order to make an independent determination of the suitability and consequences of an investment in the offered certificates. Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Term Sheet have the respective meanings assigned to such terms in the Preliminary Prospectus or, if not defined therein, in the Registration Statement.

■

The Volatile Economy, Credit Crisis and Downturn in the Real Estate Market Have Adversely Affected and May Continue to Adversely Affect the Value of CMBS

—

In recent years, the real estate and securitization markets, including the market for commercial mortgage-backed securities (“CMBS”), as well as global financial markets and the economy generally, experienced significant dislocations, illiquidity and volatility. We cannot assure you that a dislocation in the CMBS market will not re-occur or become more severe.

■

The Offered Certificates May Not Be A Suitable Investment for You

—

The offered certificates are not suitable investments for all investors. In particular, you should not purchase any class of offered certificates unless you understand and are able to bear the risk that the yield to maturity and the aggregate amount and timing of distributions on the offered certificates are subject to material variability from period to period and give rise to the potential for significant loss over the life of the offered certificates.

—

An investment in the offered certificates should be considered only by sophisticated institutional investors with substantial investment experience with similar types of securities and who have conducted appropriate due diligence on the mortgage loans and the offered certificates.

■

The Offered Certificates Are Limited Obligations

—

The offered certificates, when issued, will represent beneficial interests in the issuing entity. The offered certificates will not represent an interest in, or obligation of, the sponsor, the depositor, the master servicer, the special servicers, the operating advisor, the asset representations reviewer, the certificate administrator, the trustee, the underwriters, or any of their respective affiliates, or any other person.

—

The primary assets of the issuing entity will be the notes evidencing the mortgage loans, and the primary security and source of payment for the mortgage loans will be the mortgaged properties and the other collateral described in the Preliminary Prospectus. Payments on the offered certificates are expected to be derived from payments made by the borrowers on the mortgage loans.

■

Mortgage Loans Are Nonrecourse and Are Not Insured or Guaranteed

—

The mortgage loans are not insured or guaranteed by any person or entity, governmental or otherwise.

—

Investors should treat each mortgage loan as a nonrecourse loan. If a default occurs, recourse generally may be had only against the specific properties and other assets that have been pledged to secure the loan. Consequently, payment prior to maturity is dependent primarily on the sufficiency of the net operating income of the mortgaged property. Payment at maturity is primarily dependent upon the market value of the mortgaged property and the borrower’s ability to sell or refinance the mortgaged property.

■

The Offered Certificates May Have Limited Liquidity and the Market Value of the Offered Certificates May Decline

—

Your certificates will not be listed on any national securities exchange or traded on any automated quotation systems of any registered securities association, and there is currently no secondary market for your certificates. While we have been advised by the underwriters that one or more of them, or one or more of their affiliates, currently intend to make a market in the offered certificates, none of the underwriters has any obligation to do so, any market-making may be discontinued at any time, and we cannot assure you that an active secondary market for the offered certificates will develop.

—

The market value of the offered certificates will also be influenced by the supply of and demand for CMBS generally. The supply of CMBS will depend on, among other things, the amount of commercial and multifamily mortgage loans, whether newly originated or held in the portfolios that are available for securitization.

The depositor has filed a registration statement (including the prospectus) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) (SEC File No. 333-207677) (the “Registration Statement”) for the offering to which this communication relates.

SUMMARY OF CERTAIN RISK FACTORS (continued)

■

Legal and Regulatory Provisions Affecting Investors Could Adversely Affect the Liquidity of the Offered Certificates

—

We make no representation as to the proper characterization of the offered certificates for legal investment, financial institution regulatory, financial reporting or other purposes, as to the ability of particular investors to purchase the offered certificates under applicable legal investment or other restrictions or as to the consequences of an investment in the offered certificates for such purposes or under such restrictions. Changes in federal banking and securities laws and other laws and regulations may have an adverse effect on issuers, investors, or other participants in the asset-backed securities markets including the CMBS market. While the general effects of such changes are uncertain, regulatory or legislative provisions applicable to certain investors may have the effect of limiting or restricting their ability to hold or acquire CMBS, which in turn may adversely affect the ability of investors in the offered certificates who are not subject to those provisions to resell their certificates in the secondary market.

—

Investors should be aware, and in some cases are required to be aware, of the risk retention and due diligence requirements in Europe (the “EU Risk Retention and Due Diligence Requirements”) which apply in respect of EEA-regulated credit institutions, alternative investment fund managers, investment firms and insurance and reinsurance undertakings. Amongst other things, such requirements restrict an investor who is subject to the EU Risk Retention and Due Diligence Requirements from investing in securitizations unless: (i) the originator, sponsor or original lender in respect of the relevant securitization has explicitly disclosed that it will retain, on an on-going basis, a net economic interest of not less than five percent in respect of certain specified credit risk tranches or securitized exposures; and (ii) such investor is able to demonstrate that they have undertaken certain due diligence in respect of various matters including but not limited to its certificate position, the underlying assets and (in the case of certain types of investors) the relevant sponsor or originator. Failure to comply with one or more of the requirements may result in various penalties including, in the case of those investors subject to regulatory capital requirements, the imposition of a punitive capital charge on the certificates acquired by the relevant investor.

None of the sponsor, the depositor, the issuing entity nor any other party to the transaction intends to retain a material net economic interest in the securitization constituted by the issue of the offered certificates in accordance with the EU Risk Retention and Due Diligence Requirements or to take any other action which may be required by EEA-regulated investors for the purposes of their compliance with the EU Risk Retention and Due Diligence Requirements or similar requirements. Consequently, the offered certificates may not be a suitable investment for EEA credit institutions, investment firms or the other types of EEA regulated investors mentioned above. As a result, the price and liquidity of the offered certificates in the secondary market may be adversely affected. EEA-regulated investors are encouraged to consult with their own investment and legal advisors regarding the suitability of the offered certificates for investment. None of the sponsor, the depositor, the issuing entity, the underwriters nor any other party to the transaction makes any representation to any prospective investor or purchaser of the Certificates regarding the regulatory treatment of their investment in the Certificates on the Closing Date or at any time in the future.

With effect from January 1, 2019, the current EU Risk Retention and Due Diligence Requirements will be replaced by those contained in Regulation (EU) 2017/2402 (the “Securitization Regulation”). Investors should be aware that there are material differences between the current EU Risk retention and Due Diligence Requirements and those in the Securitization Regulation. The Securitization Regulation will, amongst other things, apply also to (a) undertakings for collective investment in transferrable securities regulated pursuant to Directive (EU) 2009/65/EC and the management companies thereof (together, “UCITS”), and (b) institutions for occupational retirement provision falling within the scope of Directive (EU) 2016/2341 (subject to certain exceptions), and certain investment managers and authorized entities appointed by such institutions (together, “IORPs”). With regard to a securitization in respect of which the relevant securities are issued prior to January 1, 2019 (a “Pre-2019 Securitization”), as is the case with the Certificates, affected investors will continue to be subject to the current investment restrictions and due diligence requirements (and will not be subject to the provisions of the Securitization Regulation in that respect), including on and after that date. However, the Securitization Regulation makes no express provision as to the application of any investment restrictions or due diligence requirements, whether under the current requirements or under the Securitization Regulation, to UCITS or IORPs that hold or acquire any interest in respect of a Pre-2019 Securitization; and, accordingly, it is not known what requirements (if any) may be applicable thereto. Certain aspects of the Securitization Regulation will be supplemented by regulatory technical standards that have not been published or that have only been published in draft form and are not yet final. Prospective investors are themselves responsible for monitoring and assessing changes to the EU Risk Retention and Due Diligence Requirements and their regulatory capital requirements.

Recent changes in federal banking and securities laws, including those resulting from the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the “Dodd-Frank Act”) enacted in the United States, may have an adverse effect on issuers, investors, or other participants in the asset-backed securities markets. In particular, new capital regulations were issued by the U.S. banking regulators in July 2013; these regulations implement the increased capital requirements established under the Basel Accord and are being phased in over time. These new capital regulations eliminate reliance on credit ratings and otherwise alter, and in most cases increase, the capital requirements imposed on depository institutions and their holding companies, including with respect to ownership of asset -backed securities such as CMBS. Further changes in capital requirements have been announced by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision and it is uncertain when such changes will be implemented in the United States. When fully implemented in the United States, these changes may have an adverse effect with respect to investments in asset-backed securities, including CMBS. As a result of these regulations, investments in CMBS such as the Certificates by financial institutions subject to bank capital regulations may result in greater capital charges to these financial institutions and these new regulations may otherwise adversely affect the treatment of CMBS for their regulatory capital purposes.

Regulations were adopted on December 10, 2013 to implement Section 619 of the Dodd Frank Act (such statutory provision together with such implementing regulations, the “Volcker Rule”). The Volcker Rule generally prohibits “banking entities” (which is broadly defined to include U.S. banks and bank holding companies and many non-U.S. banking entities, together with their respective subsidiaries and other affiliates) from (i) engaging in proprietary trading, (ii) acquiring or retaining an ownership interest in or sponsoring a “covered fund” and (iii) entering into certain relationships with such funds. The Volcker Rule became effective on July 21, 201. Subject to certain

SUMMARY OF CERTAIN RISK FACTORS (continued)

exceptions, banking entities are required to be in conformance with the Volcker Rule by July 21, 2015. Under the Volcker Rule, unless otherwise jointly determined otherwise by specified federal regulators, a “covered fund” does not include an issuer that may rely on an exclusion or exemption from the definition of “investment company” under the Investment Company Act other than the exclusions contained in Section 3(c)(1) and Section 3(c)(7) of the Investment Company Act.

—

The issuing entity will be relying on an exclusion or exemption under the Investment Company Act contained in Section 3(c)(5) of the Investment Company Act or Rule 3a-7 under the Investment Company Act, although there may be additional exclusions or exemptions available to the issuing entity. The issuing entity is being structured so as not to constitute a “covered fund” for purposes of the Volcker Rule. The general effects of the Volcker Rule remain uncertain. Any prospective investor in the certificates, including a U.S. or foreign bank or a subsidiary or other bank affiliate, should consult its own legal advisors regarding such matters and other effects of the Volcker Rule.

—

The Financial Accounting Standards Board has adopted changes to the accounting standards for structured products. These changes, or any future changes, may affect the accounting for entities such as the issuing entity, could under certain circumstances require an investor or its owner generally to consolidate the assets of the issuing entity in its financial statements and record third parties’ investments in the trust fund as liabilities of that investor or owner or could otherwise adversely affect the manner in which the investor or its owner must report an investment in CMBS for financial reporting purposes.

—

For purposes of the Secondary Mortgage Market Enhancement Act of 1984, as amended, no class of offered certificates will constitute “mortgage related securities”.

—

In addition, this transaction is structured to comply with the Credit Risk Retention Rules as and to the extent set forth under “Credit Risk Retention” in the Preliminary Prospectus. We cannot assure you that the sponsor or the retaining third-party purchaser will at all times satisfy such credit risk retention requirements. At this time, it is unclear what effect a failure of the sponsor or the retaining third party purchaser to be in compliance with the Credit Risk Retention Rules at any time will have on the certificateholders or the market value or liquidity of the certificates.

■

Commercial, Multifamily and Manufactured Housing Community Lending is Dependent Upon Net Operating Income

—

The repayment of the mortgage loans in the pool (or related whole loans) will be dependent upon the ability of the related mortgaged properties to produce cash flow through the collection of rents. However, net operating income can be volatile and may be insufficient to cover debt service on a mortgage loan (or related whole loan) at any given time. The performance and/or value of a particular income-producing real property will depend on a number of variables, including but not limited to property type, geographic location, competition and sponsorship.

■

Risks Resulting from Various Concentrations

—

The performance of the pool of mortgage loans may be adversely impacted as a result of (i) mortgage loans that account for a disproportionately large percentage of the pool’s aggregate principal balance, (ii) a concentration of mortgage loans secured by the same mortgaged property types, (iii) a concentration of mortgage loans secured by mortgaged properties located in a particular geographic area, (iv) a concentration of mortgage loans secured by mortgaged properties with the same tenant(s) and (v) a concentration of mortgage loans with the same borrower or related borrowers. The effect of loan pool losses will be more severe if the losses relate to mortgage loans that account for a disproportionately large percentage of the pool’s aggregate principal balance. Likewise, mortgaged properties in which a single tenant makes up a significant portion of the rental income are more susceptible to interruptions of cash flow if that tenant’s business operations are negatively impacted or if such tenant fails to renew its lease.

—

A concentration of related borrowers, mortgaged property types, tenant occupancy or mortgaged properties in similar geographic regions can pose increased risks because a decline in the financial condition of the corporate family of the related borrowers, in a particular industry or business or in a particular geographic area would have a disproportionately large impact on the pool of mortgage loans.

■

Borrower May Be Unable To Repay Remaining Principal Balance on Maturity or Anticipated Repayment Date

—

Mortgage loans (or whole loans) with substantial remaining principal balances at their stated maturity date or anticipated repayment date involve greater risk than fully-amortizing mortgage loans. This is because the borrower may be unable to repay the loan at that time. A borrower’s ability to repay a mortgage loan (or whole loan) on its stated maturity date or anticipated repayment date typically will depend upon its ability either to refinance the mortgage loan (or whole loan) or to sell the mortgaged property at a price sufficient to permit repayment.

■

The Timing of Prepayments and Repurchases May Change Your Anticipated Yield

—

We are not aware of any relevant publicly available or authoritative statistics with respect to the historical prepayment experiences of commercial mortgage loans, including both voluntary prepayments, if permitted, and involuntary prepayments, such as prepayments resulting from casualty or condemnation, application of reserve funds, defaults and liquidations or repurchases upon breaches of representations and warranties or material document defects or purchases by a mezzanine lender, if any, pursuant to a purchase option or sales of defaulted mortgage loans.

—

Any changes in the weighted average lives of your certificates may adversely affect your yield.

—

The sponsor is the sole warranting party in respect of the mortgage loans sold by the sponsor to the depositor and the sole party with repurchase/substitution obligations in connection with a material breach of representation and warranty or a material document deficiency. We cannot assure you that the sponsor will repurchase or substitute any mortgage loan sold by it in connection with either a material breach of the sponsor’s representations and warranties or any material document defects.

■

Litigation Regarding the Mortgaged Properties or Borrowers May Impair Your Distributions

—

There may be pending or threatened legal proceedings against the borrowers and the managers of the mortgaged properties and their respective affiliates arising out of their ordinary business. Any such litigation may materially impair distributions to certificateholders and the RR Interest Owner if borrowers must use property income to pay judgments or litigation costs. We cannot assure you that any litigation or any settlement of any litigation will not have a material adverse effect on your investment.

SUMMARY OF CERTAIN RISK FACTORS (continued)

■

Appraisals May Not Reflect Current or Future Market Value of Each Property

—

Appraisals were obtained with respect to each of the mortgaged properties at or about the time of origination of the applicable mortgage loan by the related originator, or at or around the time of the acquisition of the mortgage loan by the sponsor. In general, appraisals represent the analysis and opinion of qualified appraisers and are not guarantees of present or future value.

—

Prospective investors should consider that the information set forth in this Term Sheet regarding appraised values or loan-to-value ratios may not accurately reflect past, present or future market values of the mortgaged properties. Additionally, with respect to the appraisals setting forth assumptions as to the “as-is,” “as stabilized” or other values prospective investors should consider that those assumptions may not be accurate and that the “as stabilized” or other values may not be the values of the related mortgaged properties prior to or at maturity.

■

Adverse Environmental Conditions at or Near Mortgaged Properties May Result in Losses

—

The issuing entity could become liable for a material adverse environmental condition at an underlying mortgaged property. Any such potential liability could reduce or delay payments on the offered certificates.

—

Although an environmental report was prepared for each mortgaged property securing a mortgage loan in connection with origination, it is possible that the environmental reports and/or supplemental “Phase II” sampling did not reveal all environmental liabilities, or that there are material environmental liabilities of which we are not aware. Also, the environmental condition of the mortgaged properties in the future could be affected by the activities of tenants or by third parties unrelated to the borrowers.

■

Insurance May Not Be Available or Adequate

—

Although the mortgaged properties are required to be insured, or permitted to be self-insured by a sole or significant tenant, against certain risks, there is a possibility of casualty loss with respect to the mortgaged properties for which insurance proceeds may not be adequate or which may result from risks not covered by insurance.

—

Even if terrorism insurance is required by the loan documents for a mortgage loan, that requirement may be subject to a cap on the cost of the premium for terrorism insurance that a borrower is required to pay or a commercially reasonable standard on the availability of the insurance.

—

We cannot assure you that all of the mortgaged properties are required to be or will be insured against the risks of terrorism and similar acts.

■

Risks Relating to a Bankruptcy of an Originator, the Sponsor or the Depositor, or a Receivership or Conservatorship of Goldman Sachs Bank USA

—

In the event of the bankruptcy or insolvency of an originator, the sponsor or the depositor, or a receivership or conservatorship of Goldman Sachs Bank USA, the parent entity of Goldman Sachs Mortgage Company (“GSMC”), it is possible that the issuing entity’s right to payment from or ownership of the mortgage loans could be challenged. If such challenge is successful, payments on the offered certificates would be reduced or delayed. Even if the challenge is not successful, payments on the offered certificates would be delayed while a court resolves the claim.

—

The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the “FDIC”) has adopted a rule, substantially revised and effective January 1, 2011, establishing a safe harbor (the “FDIC Safe Harbor”) from its repudiation powers for securitizations meeting the requirements of the rule (12 C.F.R. § 360.6). The transfers of the applicable mortgage loans by GSMC, to the depositor, will not qualify for the FDIC Safe Harbor. However, those transfers are not transfers by a bank, and in any event, even if the FDIC Safe Harbor were applicable to those transfers, the FDIC Safe Harbor is non-exclusive. Additionally, an opinion of counsel will be rendered on the Closing Date to the effect that the transfers of the applicable mortgage loans by GSMC to the depositor, would generally be respected as a sale in the event of a bankruptcy or insolvency of GSMC. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the FDIC, a creditor, bankruptcy trustee or another interested party, including an entity transferring a mortgage loan, as debtor-in-possession, could still attempt to assert that the transfer of a mortgage loan by any of the sponsors was not a sale. If such party’s challenge is successful, payments on the offered certificates would be reduced or delayed. Even if the challenge is not successful, payments on the offered certificates would be delayed while a court resolves the claim.

Potential Conflicts of Interest of the Sponsor, Underwriters, the Master Servicer, the Special Servicers, the Operating Advisor, the Asset Representations Reviewer, the Directing Holders, the Non-Serviced Whole Loans Directing Holder, Serviced Companion Loan Holders and any Mezzanine Lenders

—

The sponsor, the underwriters, the master servicer, the special servicers, the operating advisor, the asset representations reviewer, the applicable Directing Holder, the directing holder for the non-serviced whole loans under the related Controlling PSA or the holder of a serviced companion loan or a mezzanine loan, if any, or any of their respective affiliates may have interests when dealing with the mortgage loans that are in conflict with those of holders of the offered certificates, especially if the sponsor, the underwriters, the master servicer, the special servicers, the operating advisor, the asset representations reviewer, the applicable Directing Holder, the directing holder for the non-serviced whole loans under the related Controlling PSA or the holder of a serviced companion loan or a mezzanine loan, if any, or any of their respective affiliates holds certificates, or has financial interests in or other financial dealings with a borrower or an affiliate of the borrower. Each of these relationships may create a conflict of interest and should be considered carefully by you before you invest in any offered certificates.

■

Potential Conflicts of Interest in the Selection of the Underlying Mortgage Loans

—

The anticipated initial investor (or affiliated investors) in the Class F-RR and Class G-RR certificates (the “B-Piece Buyer”) was given the opportunity by the sponsor to perform due diligence on the mortgage loans originally identified by the sponsor for inclusion in the issuing entity, and to request the removal, re-sizing or change in other features of some or all of the mortgage loans. Actions of the B-Piece Buyer may be adverse to those of purchasers of the offered certificates.

The depositor has filed a registration statement (including the prospectus) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) (SEC File No. 333-207677) (the “Registration Statement”) for the offering to which this communication relates.

SUMMARY OF CERTAIN RISK FACTORS (continued)

■

Interests and Incentives of the Originators, the Sponsor and Their Affiliates May Not Be Aligned With Your Interests

—

The originators, the sponsor and their affiliates (including certain of the underwriters) expect to derive ancillary benefits from this offering of offered certificates and their respective incentives may not be aligned with those of purchasers of the offered certificates. The sponsor originated or purchased the mortgage loans in order to securitize the mortgage loans by means of a transaction such as this offering of the offered certificates. The sponsor will sell the applicable mortgage loans to the depositor (an affiliate of GSMC, the sponsor, of Goldman Sachs Bank USA, one of the originators, and of Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC, one of the underwriters) on the Closing Date in exchange for cash, derived from the sale of certificates to investors, and/or in exchange for certificates. A completed offering would reduce the originators’ exposure to the mortgage loans, except to the extent that GSMC or its “majority-owned affiliate” (as defined in the Credit Risk Retention Rules) is expected to hold the RR Interest as described in “Credit Risk Retention” in the Preliminary Prospectus. The originators made the mortgage loans with a view toward securitizing them and distributing the exposure by means of a transaction such as this offering of the offered certificates. The offering of offered certificates will effectively transfer the originators’ exposure to the mortgage loans to purchasers of the offered certificates and the other certificates of the same series.

—

The originators, the sponsor and their affiliates expect to receive various benefits, including compensation, commissions, payments, rebates, remuneration and business opportunities in connection with or as a result of this offering of offered certificates and their interests in the mortgage loans. Each of the foregoing relationships should be considered carefully by you before you invest in any offered certificates.

—

In addition, GSMC, the sponsor, or its “majority-owned affiliate” (as defined in the Credit Risk Retention Rules) is expected to hold the RR Interest as the RR Interest Owner, and GSMC is expected to be appointed as the initial risk retention consultation party by the RR Interest Owner. The risk retention consultation party may, on a strictly non-binding basis, consult with the special servicer and recommend that the special servicer take actions that conflict with the interests of holders of certain classes of the certificates.

■

Interests and Incentives of the Underwriter Entities May Not Be Aligned With Your Interests

—

The activities and interests of the underwriters and their respective affiliates (collectively, the “Underwriter Entities”) will not align with, and may in fact be directly contrary to, those of the certificateholders and the RR Interest Owner. The Underwriter Entities are part of global investment banking, securities and investment management firms that provide a wide range of financial services to a substantial and diversified client base that includes corporations, financial institutions, governments and high-net-worth individuals. As such, they actively make markets in and trade financial instruments for their own account and for the accounts of customers.

—

The Underwriter Entities’ activities include, among other things, executing large block trades and taking long and short positions directly and indirectly, through derivative instruments or otherwise. The securities and instruments in which the Underwriter Entities take positions, or expect to take positions, include loans similar to the mortgage loans, securities and instruments similar to the offered certificates and other securities and instruments. Underwriter Entities hold or may hold companion loans and/or mezzanine loans related to a mortgage loan in this securitization. Market making is an activity where the Underwriter Entities buy and sell on behalf of customers, or for their own account, to satisfy the expected demand of customers. By its nature, market making involves facilitating transactions among market participants that have differing views of securities and instruments. As a result, you should expect that the Underwriter Entities will take positions that are inconsistent with, or adverse to, the investment objectives of investors in the offered certificates.

—

If an Underwriter Entity becomes a holder of any of the certificates, through market-making activity or otherwise, any actions that it takes in its capacity as a certificateholder, including voting, providing consents or otherwise will not necessarily be aligned with the interests of other holders of the same class or other classes of the certificates. Similarly, the expected RR Interest Owner and the party expected to be designated to consult with the special servicer on their behalf as the risk retention consultation party is affiliated with an Underwriter Entity.

—

In addition, the Underwriter Entities will have no obligation to monitor the performance of the certificates or the actions of the master servicer, the special servicer, the certificate administrator, the trustee or the operating advisor and will have no authority to advise the master servicer, the special servicer, the certificate administrator, the trustee or the operating advisor or to direct their actions.

—

Each of the foregoing relationships should be considered carefully by you before you invest in any offered certificates.

■

Other Rating Agencies May Assign Different Ratings to the Certificates

—

Nationally recognized statistical rating organizations that the depositor did not engage to rate the offered certificates may nevertheless issue unsolicited credit ratings on one or more classes of offered certificates. If any such unsolicited ratings are issued, we cannot assure you that they will not be different from any ratings assigned by the rating agencies engaged by the depositor. The issuance of unsolicited ratings by any nationally recognized statistical rating organization on a class of the offered certificates that are lower than ratings assigned by a rating agency engaged by the depositor may adversely impact the liquidity, market value and regulatory characteristics of that class.

■

Tax Considerations

—

The offered certificates represent ownership, directly or through a grantor trust, of one or more regular interests in one or more real estate mortgage investment conduits (each a “REMIC”) for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

—

Special tax considerations may apply to certain types of investors. Prospective investors should consult their own tax advisors regarding tax implications of an investment in offered certificates.

—

State, local and other tax laws may differ substantially from the corresponding federal law. Prospective investors should consult with their own tax advisors with respect to the various state, local and other tax consequences of an investment in the offered certificates.
