Item 8.01.Other Events.

On September 30, 2024 (the “Closing Date”), Citigroup Commercial Mortgage Securities Inc. (the “Depositor”) caused the issuance, pursuant to a Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of September 1, 2024 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), between the Depositor, as depositor, Midland Loan Services, a Division of PNC Bank, National Association, as master servicer, Rialto Capital Advisors, LLC, as special servicer with respect to the Mortgage Pool and the Serviced Companion Loans (other than the Bronx Terminal Market Whole Loan), Situs Holdings, LLC, as special servicer solely with respect to the Bronx Terminal Market Whole Loan, Pentalpha Surveillance LLC, as operating advisor and as asset representations reviewer, Citibank, N.A., as certificate administrator, and Wilmington Savings Fund Society, FSB, as trustee, of the Benchmark 2024-V10 Mortgage Trust (the “Issuing Entity”), Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2024-V10 (the “Certificates”). Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

The Certificates consist of the following classes, designated as (i) the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class X-A, Class X-B, Class A-S, Class B and Class C Certificates (collectively, the “Public Certificates”) and (ii) the Class X-D, Class D, Class E-RR, Class F-RR, Class G-RR, Class J-RR and Class R Certificates (collectively, the “Private Certificates”).

On September 19, 2024, Citigroup Global Markets Inc. (“CGMI”), Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. (“DBSI”), Goldman Sachs & Co. LLC (“GS&Co.”), Bancroft Capital, LLC (“Bancroft”) and Drexel Hamilton, LLC (“Drexel” and, collectively with CGMI, DBSI, GS&Co. and Bancroft, in such capacity, the “Underwriters”), had entered into an agreement with the Depositor, dated September 19, 2024 (the “Underwriting Agreement”), with respect to the sale of the Public Certificates, which have an aggregate initial principal amount of $658,638,000.

The Depositor also entered into an agreement to sell the Private Certificates, which have an aggregate initial principal amount of $79,332,000, to CGMI, DBSI, GS&Co., Bancroft and Drexel (collectively in such capacity, the “Initial Purchasers”), pursuant to a purchase agreement, dated as of September 19, 2024 (the “Certificate Purchase Agreement”), among the Depositor and the Initial Purchasers. The Private Certificates will be sold in a transaction exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Act.

The Public Certificates were offered by the Underwriters for sale to the public, pursuant to the Depositor’s Preliminary Prospectus, dated September 16, 2024, and by the Prospectus, dated September 19, 2024 (the “Prospectus”), in negotiated transactions or otherwise at varying prices determined at the time of sale. In connection with the issuance, and sale to the Underwriters, of the Public Certificates, a legal opinion was rendered related to the validity of, and certain federal income tax considerations relating to, the Public Certificates, which legal opinion is attached hereto as Exhibit 5.

The net proceeds of the sale of the Certificates were applied to the purchase by the Depositor from Citi Real Estate Funding Inc. (“CREFI”), Goldman Sachs Mortgage Company and German American Capital Corporation of the mortgage loans backing the Certificates (the “Mortgage Loans”).  The net proceeds to the Depositor of the offering of the Certificates, after deducting expenses payable by the Depositor in connection with the issuance and distribution of the Certificates of $4,248,892, were approximately $759,206,190.  Of the expenses paid by the Depositor, approximately $319,337 were paid directly to affiliates of the Depositor, $50,000 in the form of fees were paid to the Underwriters and the Initial Purchasers, $0 were paid to or for the Underwriters and the Initial Purchasers, and $3,879,555 were other expenses.  All of the foregoing expense amounts are the Depositor’s

 

 

 

reasonable estimates of such expenses.  No underwriting discounts and commissions or finder’s fees were paid by the Depositor.

Further information regarding sales of the Public Certificates is set forth in the Underwriting Agreement (including, as to the price per class of Public Certificates, on Schedule II thereto) and in the Depositor’s Prospectus, dated September 19, 2024. The related registration statement (file no. 333-262701) was originally declared effective on April 22, 2022.

Part 43) promulgated under Section 15G of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Regulation RR”)) (the “Retaining Sponsor”), is satisfying its credit risk retention obligation under Regulation RR in connection with the securitization of the Mortgage Loans referred to above by the purchase on the Closing Date and holding by a third-party purchaser, which is RREF V - D AIV RR H, LLC of an “eligible horizontal residual interest” (as such term is defined in Regulation RR), consisting of all of the Class E-RR, Class F-RR, Class G-RR and Class J-RR Certificates.
