Sample 2026-2 Owned Property and Lease Agreed-Upon Procedures
We have performed the procedures enumerated in Attachment A, which were agreed to and acknowledged as appropriate by the Property Manager, Issuers, ATLAS SP Securities, a division of Apollo Global Securities, LLC (“ATLAS SP”) and BofA Securities, Inc. (collectively, the “Specified Parties”), for the intended purpose of assisting the Specified Parties in evaluating the accuracy of certain information with respect to a pool consisting of (i) fee title to, and leasehold interests in ground leases on, commercial real estate properties (the “Owned Properties”) and (ii) each of the leases with respect to such Owned Properties and all payments required thereunder (the “Leases,” together with the Owned Properties, the “Collateral Pool”) relating to the Issuers’ securitization transaction. This report may not be suitable for any other purpose. The procedures performed may not address all of the items of interest to a user of the report and may not meet the needs of all users of the report and, as such, users are responsible for determining whether the procedures performed are appropriate for their purposes. The appropriateness of these procedures is solely the responsibility of the Specified Parties identified in this report. No other party acknowledged the appropriateness of the procedures. Consequently, we make no representation regarding the appropriateness of the procedures described in Attachment A, either for the purpose for which this report has been requested or for any other purpose.
The procedures performed and our associated findings are included in Attachment A.

This agreed-upon procedures engagement was conducted in accordance with attestation standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (the “AICPA”). An agreed-upon procedures engagement involves the practitioner performing specific procedures that the Specified Parties have agreed to and acknowledged to be appropriate for the purpose of the engagement and reporting on findings based on the procedures performed. We were not engaged to, and did not, conduct an examination to express an opinion or a review to express a conclusion in accordance with attestation standards established by the AICPA on any of the items referred to herein. 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.
The agreed-upon procedures described in this report were not performed for the purpose of:
| a. | Satisfying any criteria for due diligence published by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization (a “rating agency”) or |
| b. | Making any findings with respect to: |
| i. | Whether the origination of the Leases conformed to, or deviated from, stated underwriting or credit extension guidelines, standards, criteria or other requirements, |
| ii. | The value of the collateral securing the Collateral Pool, |
| iii. | Whether the originator(s) of the Leases complied with federal, state or local laws or regulations or |
| iv. | Any other factor or characteristic of the Collateral Pool that would be material to the likelihood that the issuers of the Notes will pay interest and principal in accordance with applicable terms and conditions. |
We are required to be independent of the Issuers and to meet our other ethical responsibilities, as applicable, for agreed-upon procedures engagements set forth in the Preface: Applicable to All Members and Part 1 – Members in Public Practice of the Code of Professional Conduct established by the AICPA. Independence requirements for agreed-upon procedures engagements are less restrictive than independence requirements for audit and other attestation services.
This report is intended solely for the information and use of the Specified Parties and is not intended to be, and should not be, used by anyone other than the Specified Parties. It is not intended to be, and should not be, used by any other person or entity, including investors and rating agencies, who are not identified in this report as Specified Parties but who may have access to this report as required by law or regulation.

Attachment A Page 1 of 3 |
Procedures performed and our associated findings
| 1. | For each Sample 2026-2 Owned Property and Lease, we compared the Sample Characteristics listed on Exhibit 1 to Attachment A, as shown on the Data File, to the corresponding information located in, or to the corresponding information we recalculated using information located in, the Sources and/or Data File, as applicable, subject to the instructions, assumptions and methodologies provided by the Property Manager, on behalf of the Issuers, described in the notes to Exhibit 1 to Attachment A and the succeeding paragraph(s) of this Item. Except for the information shown on Exhibit 2 to Attachment A, all such compared information was found to be in agreement. |
The Source(s) that we were instructed by the Property Manager, on behalf of the Issuers, to use for each Sample Characteristic are indicated on Exhibit 1 to Attachment A. Where more than one Source is listed for a Sample Characteristic, the Property Manager, on behalf of the Issuers, instructed us to note agreement if the value on the Data File for the Sample Characteristic agreed with the (a) corresponding information in at least one of the Sources or (b) information determined using the corresponding information in more than one of the Sources that are listed for such Sample Characteristic on Exhibit 1 to Attachment A. We performed no procedures to reconcile any differences that may exist between various Sources for any of the Sample Characteristics. In addition, if a particular Source contained multiple values for the same Sample Characteristic, the Property Manager, on behalf of the Issuers, instructed us to note agreement if the value on the Data File for the Sample Characteristic agreed with at least one of the values in the corresponding Source. We performed no procedures to reconcile any differences that may exist between various values in a Source for any Sample Characteristic.
We performed no procedures to determine the appropriateness, accuracy, completeness or reasonableness of the instructions, assumptions and methodologies provided by the Property Manager, on behalf of the Issuers, described in this Item.
| 2. | For (i) each commercial real estate property and lease on the 2026-1 Data File and Data File, except for any Related Series Owned Property and Lease with a Property ID of “P0002356,” as shown on the 2026-1 Data File (collectively, the “P0002356 Properties”), we compared the Property ID, as shown on the 2026-1 Data File, to the corresponding Property ID, as shown on the Data File, and (ii) the P0002356 Properties, we compared the contract ID, as shown on the 2026-1 Data File, to the corresponding contract ID, as shown on the Data File, and noted that: |
| a. | 1,370 commercial real estate properties and leases were included on both the 2026-1 Data File and Data File, including all of the Sample 2026-2 Owned Properties and Leases, |
| b. | 11 Related Series Owned Properties and Leases included on the 2026-1 Data File were not included on the Data File and |
| c. | Nine of the Owned Properties and Leases included on the Data File were not included on the 2026-1 Data File, none of which are Sample 2026-2 Owned Properties and Leases. |
|
Attachment A Page 2 of 3 |
| 3. | For each Related Series Owned Property and Lease included on the Data File, we compared the Sample Characteristics, as shown on the 2026-1 Data File, to the corresponding information, as shown on the Data File, subject to the additional instruction(s) described in the succeeding paragraph(s) of this Item. All such compared information was found to be in agreement. |
For the purpose of comparing the land FT and building FT Sample Characteristics, the Property Manager, on behalf of the Issuers, instructed us to round the land FT and building FT, both as shown on the 2026-1 Data File, to the nearest square foot.
For the purpose of this procedure, the Property Manager, on behalf of the Issuers, instructed us not to compare the:
| a. | Date of last bump in rent, date of next bump in rent, current consolidated payment and most recent aggregate unit FCCR Sample Characteristics due to the passage of time between the 2026-1 Statistical Cut-off Date and Statistical Cut-off Date and |
| b. | Non-Compared Sample Characteristic Information, as shown on the Exempt Property and Lease Data Files. |
We performed no procedures to determine the appropriateness, accuracy, completeness or reasonableness of the instructions, assumptions and methodologies provided by the Property Manager, on behalf of the Issuers, described in this Item.
| 4. | Using: |
| a. | Information on the Data File, |
| b. | Information on the Excess Collateral Schedules, as applicable, and |
| c. | The instructions, assumptions and methodologies provided by the Property Manager, on behalf of the Issuers, described in the succeeding paragraph(s) of this Item, |
we recalculated the current lease rate (collateral value) of each Owned Property and Lease. We compared this recalculated information to the corresponding information on the Data File and found such information to be in agreement.
For the purpose of this procedure, the Property Manager, on behalf of the Issuers, instructed us to recalculate the current lease rate (collateral value) of each Owned Property and Lease as the quotient of the:
| i. | Product of: |
| (a) | The sum of the current consolidated payments for each unique Property ID corresponding to the same contract ID, as shown on the Data File, and |
| (b) | 12 |
divided by
| ii. | Sum of the: |
| (a) | Sum of the consolidated collateral values for each unique Property ID corresponding to the same contract ID, as shown on the Data File, and |
| (b) | Excess collateral value corresponding to the related contract ID, as shown on the Excess Collateral Schedules, as applicable. |
|
Attachment A Page 3 of 3 |
For the purpose of this procedure, the Property Manager, on behalf of the Issuers, instructed us to round the current lease rate (collateral value), as shown on the Data File, and the current lease rate (collateral value), as recalculated above, of each Owned Property and Lease to the nearest 0.01%.
For the purpose of this procedure, the Property Manager, on behalf of the Issuers, instructed us not to recalculate the current lease rate (collateral value) for any Owned Property and Lease with a percentage rent clause (Y/N) of “Y,” as shown on the Data File.
We performed no procedures to determine the appropriateness, accuracy, completeness or reasonableness of the instructions, assumptions and methodologies provided by the Property Manager, on behalf of the Issuers, described in this Item.
| 5. | Using: |
| a. | Information on the Data File and |
| b. | The instructions, assumptions and methodologies provided by the Property Manager, on behalf of the Issuers, described in the succeeding paragraph(s) of this Item, |
we recalculated the remaining lease term (as of cut-off date) of each Owned Property and Lease. We compared this recalculated information to the corresponding information on the Data File and found such information to be in agreement.
For the purpose of this procedure, the Property Manager, on behalf of the Issuers, instructed us to calculate the adjusted rent commencement date (the “Adjusted Rent Commencement Date”) of each Owned Property and Lease as the:
| i. | First calendar day of the month of the rent commencement date if the rent commencement date, as shown on the Data File, occurred on the first business day of the related month or |
| ii. | First calendar day of the month following the month of the rent commencement date if the rent commencement date, as shown on the Data File, did not occur on the first business day of the related month. |
For the purpose of this procedure, the Property Manager, on behalf of the Issuers, instructed us to recalculate the remaining lease term (as of cut-off date) of each Owned Property and Lease as the difference between the:
| i. | Difference in months between the: |
| (a) | Adjusted Rent Commencement Date and |
| (b) | Statistical Cut-off Date and |
| ii. | Original lease term (months), as shown on the Data File. |
For the purpose of this procedure, the Property Manager, on behalf of the Issuers, instructed us not to recalculate the remaining lease term (as of cut-off date) for any Owned Property and Lease with a contract ID of <blank>, as shown on the Data File.
We performed no procedures to determine the appropriateness, accuracy, completeness or reasonableness of the instructions, assumptions and methodologies provided by the Property Manager, on behalf of the Issuers, described in this Item.
