Fitch does not rate the $8,938,000a class F, the $10,054,000a class G or the $29,047,404a class H. Fitch has withdrawn the expected rating on the interest-only class X-D certificates as they are no longer being offered. The final rating for the interest-only class X-C differs from the expected rating published on July 21, 2016 due to a change in class X-C's referenced classes. Class X-C's notional balance initially referenced class. Subsequent to the July 21, 2016 expected rating, class X-C's notional balance was updated to reference both class C and class D.

A)Privately placed pursuant to Rule 144A.

B)Notional amount and interest-only.

The certificates represent the beneficial ownership interest in the trust, primary assets of which are 32 loans secured by 54 commercial properties having an aggregate principal balance of $893,738,404 as of the cut-off date. The loans were contributed to the trust by JP Morgan Chase Bank, National Association and German American Capital Corporation.

Fitch reviewed a comprehensive sample of the transaction's collateral, including site inspections on 82.7% of the properties by balance and asset summary reviews and cash flow analysis of 91% of the pool.

KEY RATING DRIVERS

Leverage Lower than Recent Deals: The transaction has lower leverage than other recent Fitch-rated transactions. The pool's weighted average (WA) Fitch DSCR of 1.19x is better than both the YTD 2016 average of 1.16x and the 2015 average of 1.18x. The pool's WA Fitch LTV of 104.8% is better than both the YTD 2016 average of 107.5% and the 2015 average of 109.3%. Excluding the credit opinion loans (15% of the pool), the Fitch DSCR and LTV are 1.15x and 112.3%, respectively.

Investment-Grade Credit Opinion Loans: Two of the six largest loans in the pool have investment-grade credit opinions. Westfield San Francisco Centre (9.4% of the pool) is the largest loan in the pool and has an investment-grade credit opinion of 'Asf' on a standalone basis. The Shops at Crystals (5.6% of the pool) has an investment-grade credit opinion of 'BBB+sf' on a standalone basis. The implied credit enhancement levels for the conduit portion of the transaction for 'AAAsf' and 'BBB-sf' are 24.250% and 8.625%, respectively.

High Pool Concentration: The pool is more concentrated than other recent Fitch-rated multiborrower transactions. The top 10 loans comprise 64% of the pool, which is greater the YTD 2016 average of 54.8% and the 2015 average of 49.3%. The pool's loan concentration index (LCI) of 518 is above the YTD 2016 average of 422 and the 2015 average of 367. Additionally, the pool's sponsor concentration index (SCI) of 831 is significantly higher than the YTD 2016 average of 482 and the 2015 average of 410. Two sponsors, CIM Commercial Trust Corporation and Simon Property Group, each represent more than 10% of the pool with 17.2% and 14.5%, respectively.

RATING SENSITIVITIES

For this transaction, Fitch's net cash flow (NCF) was 11% below the most recent year's net operating income (NOI; for properties for which a full-year NOI was provided, excluding properties that were stabilizing during this period). Unanticipated further declines in property-level NCF could result in higher defaults and loss severities on defaulted loans and in potential rating actions on the certificates.

Fitch evaluated the sensitivity of the ratings assigned to DBJPM 2016-C3 certificates and found that the transaction displays average sensitivity to further declines in NCF. In a scenario in which NCF declined a further 20% from Fitch's NCF, a downgrade of the junior 'AAAsf' certificates to 'Asf' could result. In a more severe scenario, in which NCF declined a further 30% from Fitch's NCF, a downgrade of the junior 'AAAsf' certificates to 'BBBsf' could result. The presale report includes a detailed explanation of additional stresses and sensitivities on page 12.

USE OF THIRD-PARTY DUE DILIGENCE PURSUANT TO SEC RULE 17G-10

Fitch was provided with Form ABS Due Diligence-15E (Form 15') as prepared by Ernst & Young, LLP. The third-party due diligence described in Form 15E focused on a comparison and re-computation of certain characteristics with respect to each of the mortgage loans. Fitch considered this information in its analysis and it did not have an effect on Fitch's analysis or conclusions.
