We (“us” or “PwC”) have performed the procedures enumerated below, which were agreed to by Progress Residential Master Trust (the “Company,” as the engaging party), Wells Fargo Securities, LLC, Deutsche Bank Securities Inc., Nomura Securities International, Inc., Pretium Securities, LLC, and RBC Capital Markets, LLC, who are collectively referred to herein as the “Specified Parties”, solely to assist you in performing certain procedures relating to the accuracy of certain attributes of the collateral assets (the “Properties”) included in the Final Data Tape (as defined below) with respect to the Progress Residential 2026-SFR2 securitization (the “Transaction”). The Company (the “Responsible Party”) is responsible for the accuracy of the attributes of the Properties included in the Final Data Tape.
In an agreed-upon procedures engagement, we perform specific procedures that the Specified Parties have agreed to and acknowledged to be appropriate for the intended purpose of the engagement and we report on findings based on the procedures performed. The procedures performed may not address all the items of interest to a user of this report and may not meet the needs of all users of this report and, as such, users are responsible for determining whether the procedures performed are appropriate for their purposes. The Specified Parties have agreed to and acknowledged that the procedures performed are appropriate for their purposes. This report may not be suitable for any other purpose.

In connection with the Transaction, for Procedure 1, the Specified Parties agreed on a sample size of 561 Properties (the “Sample Properties”), which the Specified Parties instructed us to randomly select from the pool of 2,156 Properties in the Final Data Tape (as defined below) identified by the Company as being the Properties that will collateralize the Transaction. We make no representations as to the adequacy of the sample size, nor do we draw any conclusions about the entire Final Data Tape based on the sample size and results of the procedures performed.
In connection with the Transaction, for Procedure 3, the Specified Parties instructed that the procedures be performed on the entire pool of Properties in the Final Data Tape identified by the Company as being the Properties that will collateralize the Transaction.

With respect to any terms or requirements of the Transaction documents that do not appear in this report, we performed no procedures and, accordingly, the procedures we performed would not ensure that any requirements are satisfied. Further, we have performed only the following agreed-upon procedures and therefore make no representations regarding the adequacy of disclosures or whether any material facts have been omitted from the Transaction documents.

For purposes of performing these agreed-upon procedures, no exceptions were reported for differences within the applicable “Tolerance Level” stated in Exhibit 1 of this AUP Report.
We make no representations regarding the methodologies or assumptions provided to us by the Company.
Except as described in this report, we performed no procedures to determine the accuracy or completeness of the information contained in the Data Files.
Data, Information and Documents Provided
The following definitions, unless otherwise indicated, have been adopted in presenting our procedures and findings:
The “Data Files” refer to the following files provided to us by the Company:
| Page 3 of 11 |
|
| o | An Excel file labeled “PROG 2026-SFR2 (21-3 Refi) BPO Order_2.26.26_v1 - Tie Out Report 03.12.26.xlsx” (the “BPO Results File”); and |
| o | An Excel file labeled “PROG 2026-SFR2_Accounting Detail_v3.xlsx” (the “Accounting Detail File”). |
Procedures Performed
| Procedure 1 | For each of the Sample Properties, using the information, instruction, and assumptions provided by the Company as listed in Exhibit 1, we compared the Sample Lease Attributes as of the Property Cut-Off Date, as shown in the Final Data Tape, to the corresponding information in the applicable Source Documents provided by the Company as of the Lease Review Date. For the purposes of our comparison procedures, we were instructed by the Company to use the logic enumerated in the applicable “Comparison Instructions” section of Exhibit 1. We make no representations regarding the methodologies or assumptions provided to us by the Company. |
For each Sample Lease Attribute, for the purposes of our comparison procedures, we were instructed by the Company to use the applicable “Tolerance Level” stated in Exhibit 1 as the maximum acceptable difference.
We compared the Sample Lease Attributes in the Final Data Tape for the Sample Properties to the Source Documents and found them to be in agreement.
| Procedure 2 | In the Final Data Tape, we identified 14 Properties where the MTM data attribute was equal to “Y”. Of these 14 Properties, 5 of the Properties (the “Month-to-Month Sample Properties”) were part of the Sample Properties. Using the MTM Support File provided by the Company, the Final Data Tape, and the methodology provided by the Company, we observed for each Month-to-Month Sample Property: |
| Page 4 of 11 |
|
| a) | the Occupancy data attribute was equal to “Occupied” in the Final Data Tape; |
| b) | the Date of Lease End Sample Lease Attribute was prior to the Property Cut-Off Date in the Final Data Tape; and |
| c) | as indicated in the MTM Support File, the tenant had been charged and paid rent for the month of January 2026, or if rent was unpaid, the Delinquent? data attribute was equal to “Y” in the Final Data Tape. |
Based on the procedure performed, we found the MTM data attribute shown in the Final Data Tape to be in agreement for the Month-to-Month Sample Properties.
| Procedure 3 | Using the information, instruction, and assumptions provided by the Company, for each of the Properties represented in the Final Data Tape, we performed the respective procedures for the data fields listed in Exhibit 2. The Company provided the Final Data Tape, the Supplemental Data Files, and certain calculation methodologies as identified in Exhibit 2 for the purposes of comparing or recalculating each characteristic and instructed us to use these methodologies for the purpose of our procedures. We make no representations regarding the methodologies or assumptions provided to us by the Company. |
In performing this procedure, we received one or more preliminary data files and performed certain procedures as set forth in Exhibit 2. The procedures identified differences, which were communicated to the Responsible Party. The Responsible Party revised one or more of the preliminary data files based on such communicated differences, where they determined it to be appropriate.
We performed this procedure in the Final Data Tape, and we either (i) compared the information in the Final Data Tape to the Supplemental Data Files, as applicable or (ii) compared the recalculated values to the corresponding values in the Final Data Tape, as applicable, and, in each case, found them to be in agreement.
This agreed-upon procedures engagement was conducted in accordance with attestation standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. We were not engaged to, and did not, conduct an audit or an examination engagement, the objective of which would be the expression of an opinion, or a review engagement, the objective of which would be the expression of a conclusion, on the accuracy of certain attributes of the Properties in the Final Data Tape. 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 to you.
In performing this engagement, we are required to be independent of the Responsible Party and to meet our ethical responsibilities, in accordance with the relevant ethical requirements related to our agreed-upon procedures engagement.
