On November 20, 2013, RBS Commercial Funding Inc. (the “Depositor”) caused the issuance, pursuant to a Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of November 1, 2013 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), among the Depositor, as depositor, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as master servicer, Rialto Capital Advisors, LLC, as special servicer, Trimont Real Estate Advisors, Inc., as trust advisor, Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as certificate administrator, tax administrator and custodian, and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee, of the WFRBS Commercial Mortgage Trust 2013-C17, Commercial Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2013-C17 (the “Certificates”).

The Certificates will consist of the following classes, designated as (i) the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3, Class A-4, Class A-SB, Class A-S, Class X-A, Class X-B, Class B and Class C Certificates (collectively, the “Public Certificates”) and (ii) the Class X-C, Class D, Class E, Class F, Class G, Class V and Class R Certificates (collectively, the “Private Certificates”).

All of the Public Certificates, having an aggregate initial principal amount of $796,962,000, were sold to RBS Securities Inc. (“RBS”), Wells Fargo Securities, LLC (“WFS”), Deutsche Bank Securities Inc. (“DBSI”) and Barclays Capital Inc. (“Barclays”, and together with RBS, WFS and DBSI, the “Underwriters”), pursuant to an Underwriting Agreement, dated as of November 1, 2013 (the “Underwriting Agreement”), among the Depositor, The Royal Bank of Scotland plc (“RBS PLC”) and the Underwriters. RBS and WFS are acting as co-lead bookrunning managers. DBSI and Barclays are acting as co-managers. The Public Certificates were offered by the Underwriters for sale to the public, pursuant to the Depositor’s Base Prospectus, dated July 29, 2013, as supplemented by the Prospectus Supplement, dated November 6, 2013, in negotiated transactions or otherwise at varying prices determined at the time of sale.

All of the Private Certificates, having an aggregate initial principal amount of $107,392,517, were sold to RBS, WFS and DBSI (together with RBS and WFS, the “Initial Purchasers”), pursuant to a Certificate Purchase Agreement, dated as of November 1, 2013, among the Depositor, RBS PLC and the Initial Purchasers. The Private Certificates were sold in private placement transactions exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), pursuant to Section 4(2) of the Act.

The Certificates represent, in the aggregate, the entire beneficial ownership in the WFRBS Commercial Mortgage Trust 2013-C17 (the “Issuing Entity”), a common law trust fund formed under the laws of the State of New York pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The assets of the Issuing Entity consist primarily of 84 fixed-rate mortgage loans (the “Mortgage Loans”) secured by first liens on 134 commercial, multifamily and manufactured housing community properties.

The net proceeds of the sale of the Certificates were applied to the purchase of the Mortgage Loans by the Depositor from RBS PLC, RBSFP, Wells, Basis, Liberty, C-III and Rialto. 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 approximately $4,600,000, were approximately $952,944,500.
