Re: FIGRE Trust 2025-HE4 – Data File Procedures

We have performed the procedures described below on the specified attributes in an electronic data file entitled “HEL060325—FIGRE 2025-HE4_KPMG_Full.xlsx” provided by the Company on June 17, 2025, containing information on 4,245 home equity lines of credit (the “Mortgage Loans”) as of June 3, 2025 (the “Data File”), which we were informed are intended to be included as collateral in the offering by FIGRE Trust 2025-HE4. The Company is responsible for the specified attributes identified by the Company in the Data File.

The Specified Parties have agreed to and acknowledged that the procedures performed are appropriate to meet their intended purpose of assisting specified parties in evaluating the accuracy of the specified attributes in the Data File. This report may not be suitable for any other purpose. No other parties have agreed to or acknowledged the appropriateness of these procedures for the intended purpose or any other purpose.

The procedures performed may not address all the items of interest to a specified party of this report and may not meet the needs of all specified parties of this report and, as such, specified parties are responsible for determining whether the procedures performed are appropriate for their purposes.

The term “Source Documents” means copies of the Mortgage Loan Agreement, Servicing Statement, Servicing Portal Screenshots, Notice of Servicing Transfer, and Credit Report Data Document for each Selected Mortgage Loan (defined below) provided by the Company. We make no representation regarding the validity or accuracy of these documents, the execution of the Mortgage Loan Agreement by the borrower, or the validity of the borrower(s) signature(s).

 

   

The term “Instructions” means the instructions provided by the Company pertaining to a procedure, attribute, or methodology, as described in Exhibit B.

 

   

The term “Provided Information” means the Source Documents and Instructions.

The procedures we were instructed by the Company to perform and the associated findings are as follows:

 

A.

The Company instructed us to select a random sample of 387 Mortgage Loans from the 3,868 Mortgage Loans labeled as “FIGURE_HELOC” in the “loan_program” field in the Data File (the “Selected Mortgage Loans”). For purposes of this procedure, the Company informed us they used an approximately 10% basis to determine the number of Mortgage Loans we were instructed to randomly select from the Data File.

 

B.

For each Selected Mortgage Loan, we compared the specified attributes in the Data File listed in Exhibit A to the corresponding information included in the Source Documents, utilizing the Instructions, as applicable. The Specified Parties indicated that the absence of any of the information in the Source Documents or the inability to agree the indicated information from the Data File to the Source Documents for each of the attributes identified, utilizing the Instructions as applicable, constituted an exception. The Source Documents are listed in the order of priority.

We found such information to be in agreement without exception.

We were engaged by the Company to perform this agreed-upon procedures engagement and conducted our engagement in accordance with attestation standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, which involves us performing the specific procedures agreed to and acknowledged above and reporting on findings based on performing those procedures. We were not engaged to, and did not, conduct an examination or review, the objective of which would be the expression of an opinion or conclusion, respectively, on the specified attributes in the Data File. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion or conclusion. Had we performed additional procedures, other matters might have come to our attention that would have been reported.

We are required to be independent of the Company and to meet our other ethical responsibilities, in accordance with the relevant ethical requirements related to our agreed-upon procedures engagement.

The procedures performed were applied based on the information included in the Data File and Provided Information, without verification or evaluation of such information by us; therefore, we express no opinion or any other form of assurance regarding (i) the reasonableness of the information provided to us by the Company, (ii) the physical existence of the Mortgage Loans, (iii) the reliability or accuracy of the Provided Information which was used in our procedures, or (iv) matters of legal interpretation.

The procedures performed were not intended to address, nor did they address: (i) the conformity of the origination of the Mortgage Loans to stated underwriting or credit extension guidelines, standards, criteria or other requirements, (ii) the value of collateral securing any such Mortgage Loans being securitized, (iii) the compliance of the originator of the Mortgage Loans with federal, state, and local laws and regulations, or (iv) any other factor or characteristic of the Mortgage Loans that would be material to the likelihood that the issuer of the asset-backed securities will pay interest and principal in accordance with applicable terms and conditions. The procedures performed were not intended to satisfy any criteria for due diligence published by the nationally recognized statistical rating organizations (“NRSROs”).
