Independent Accountants’ Report

on Applying Agreed-Upon Procedures

We have performed the procedures described below, related to certain information with respect to a portfolio of equipment contracts in connection with the proposed offering of CCG Receivables Trust 2023-2. Commercial Credit Group Inc. (the “Company”) is responsible for the information provided to us, including the information set forth in the Statistical Data File (as defined herein)

The Company has agreed to the procedures and acknowledged that the procedures performed are appropriate to meet the intended purpose of evaluating the accuracy of certain information set forth in the Statistical Data File. Additionally, Wells Fargo Securities, LLC (together with the Company, the “Specified Parties”) has agreed to the procedures and acknowledged that the procedures performed are appropriate for their purposes. 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. Consequently, we make no representations regarding the appropriateness of the procedures described below either for the purpose for which this report has been requested or for any other purpose.

We compared Characteristics 2. and 3. to the corresponding information set forth on or derived from the Lease Agreement, Promissory Note, including any amendments thereto (collectively, the “Agreement”).

We compared Characteristic 4. to the corresponding information set forth on or derived from the “Purchase Option Addendum.”

We compared Characteristic 5. to the corresponding information set forth on or derived from the “Security Agreement” or the Agreement.

We compared Characteristic 6. to the corresponding information set forth on or derived from the “Amortization Schedule” or “Extension Worksheet.”

We compared Characteristics 7. through 9. to the corresponding information set forth on or derived from the “Booking Worksheet.”

For purposes of our procedures and at your instruction:

 

   

with respect to our comparison of Characteristic 5., for the Sample Contract indicated in Appendix A, we noted a difference with respect to the customer state set forth on the Statistical Data File when compared to the customer state set forth on the Agreement and Security Agreement. For this Sample Contract, we were instructed to perform an additional procedure and compare the customer state set forth on the Statistical Data File to the corresponding information set forth on the “Accounting Worksheet;”

 

   

with respect to our comparison of Characteristic 4., differences of $1.00 or less are deemed to be in agreement;

 

   

with respect to our comparison of Characteristic 7., for those Sample Contracts comprised of multiple pieces of equipment (as indicated on the Booking Worksheet), we observed that the equipment type set forth on the Statistical Data File agrees to one of the equipment types listed on the Booking Worksheet for such Sample Contract; and

 

   

with respect to our comparison of Characteristic 9., for the Sample Contract indicated in Appendix B, we noted a difference with respect to the contract month of origination set forth on the Statistical Data File when compared to the contract month of origination set forth on the Booking Worksheet. For this Sample Contract, we were instructed to perform an additional procedure and compare the contract month of origination set forth on the Statistical Data File to the corresponding information set forth on screen shots from the Company’s servicing system the “Servicing System Screen Shot.”

The equipment contract documents described above, including any information obtained from the indicated system, and any other related documents used in support of the Characteristics were provided to us by representatives of the Company and are collectively referred to hereinafter as the “Contract Documents.” We were not requested to perform, and we did not perform, any procedures with respect to the preparation or verification of any of the information set forth on the Contract Documents and we make no representations concerning the accuracy or completeness of any of the information contained therein. In certain instances, our procedures were performed using data imaged facsimiles or photocopies of the Contract Documents. In addition, we make no representations as to whether the Contract Documents are comprehensive or valid instruments or reflect the current prevailing terms with respect to the corresponding Sample Contracts.


Agreed-Upon Procedures’ Findings

The results of the foregoing procedures indicated that the Characteristics set forth on the Statistical Data File were found to be in agreement with the above-mentioned Contract Documents.

******

We make no representations as to the (i) actual characteristics or existence of the underlying documents or data comprising the equipment contracts underlying the Statistical Data File or the conformity of their characteristics with those assumed for purposes of the procedures described herein, (ii) existence or ownership of the equipment contracts or (iii) reasonableness of any of the aforementioned assumptions, information or methodologies.

It should be understood that we make no representations as to questions of legal interpretation or as to the sufficiency for your purposes of the procedures enumerated in the preceding paragraphs.

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 (“AICPA”). An agreed-upon procedures engagement involves the practitioner performing specific procedures that the engaging party has 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 conduct, and did not conduct, an (i) audit conducted in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards or (ii) examination or a review engagement conducted in accordance with attestation standards established by the AICPA, the objective of which would be the expression of an opinion or conclusion, respectively, on the Statistical Data File. Accordingly, we do not express such an opinion or conclusion, or any other form of assurance, including reasonable assurance. Had we performed additional procedures, other matters might have come to our attention that would have been reported to you.

We are required to be independent of the Company 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 procedure engagements are less restrictive than independence requirements for audit and other attestation services.

None of the engagement, procedures or report was intended to address, nor did they address, the (i) conformity of the origination of the assets to stated underwriting or credit extension guidelines, standards, criteria or other requirements, (ii) value of collateral securing such assets or (iii) compliance of the originator of the assets with federal, state, and local laws and regulations.


None of the engagement, procedures or report were intended to satisfy, nor did they satisfy, any criteria for due diligence published by a nationally recognized statistical rating organization.
