We have performed the procedures described below, related to certain information with respect to a portfolio of automobile loans in connection with the proposed offering of GLS Auto Select Receivables Trust 2024- 3, Automobile Receivables-Backed Notes. Global Lending Services LLC (the “Company”) is responsible for the information provided to us, including the information set forth in the Statistical Loan File (as defined herein).

Additionally, BMO Capital Markets Corp., (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.

 

 

Agreed-Upon Procedures

 

On May 29, 2024, representatives of the Company provided us with a computer-generated automobile loan data file and related record layout containing data, as represented to us by the Company, as of May 28, 2024, with respect to 6,999 automobile loans (the “Statistical Loan File”). At the Company’s instruction, we randomly selected 150 automobile loans from the Statistical Loan File (the “Sample Loans”) and performed certain comparisons and recomputations for each of the Sample Loans relating to the automobile loan characteristics (the “Characteristics”) set forth on the Statistical Loan File and indicated below.

 

 

Characteristics

1. Vehicle identification number (“VIN”) 7. Vehicle model
2. Origination date 8. Vehicle model year
3. Original amount financed 9. Borrower state
4. Original term to maturity 10. Original monthly P&I payment
5. Original annual percentage rate (“APR”) 11. Model type (new/used)
6. Vehicle make 12. FICO score

 

We compared Characteristics 1. through 8. to the corresponding information set forth on the Installment Sales Contract, the Revised Truth-in-Lending Disclosure or Contract Correction Letter (collectively, the “Contract”) and to the Company’s loan servicing system (the “Servicing System”).

We compared Characteristic 9. to the corresponding information set forth on the Servicing System.

 

We compared Characteristics 10. and 11. to the corresponding information set forth on the Contract and to the Company’s loan origination system (the “Origination System”).

 

We compared Characteristic 12. to the corresponding information set forth on the Origination System.

 

Further, we compared Characteristic 1. to the Title Certificate or Application for Title (collectively, the “Title Certificate”).

 

For purposes of our procedures and at your instruction:

 

  · with respect to our comparison of Characteristic 10., differences of $2.00 or less are deemed to be “in agreement”; and

 

·with respect to our comparison of Characteristic 12., in those instances where we observed both a borrower and co-borrower FICO score on the Origination System, we compared the higher FICO score, as set forth on the Origination System, to the FICO score set forth on the Statistical Loan File.

 

In addition to the procedures described above, for each of the Sample Loans, we observed the existence of the following:

 

· a Title Certificate (as defined above);

 

· the security interest of the Company is indicated on a Title Certificate;

 

· a Credit Application or an Application for Financing (collectively, the “Application”) for those Sample Loans not originated or refinanced on a specified platform, as indicated by representatives of the Company;

 

·a Credit Bureau Report for the borrower and co-borrower (if applicable) (as set forth on the Origination System);

 

· a Truth-in-Lending Disclosure Statement; and

 

· the Agreement to Provide Insurance, Verification of Insurance, Policy Declaration, Certificate of Insurance, Insurance Identification Card, Insurance Verification Request, Insurance Application, Binder of Insurance, Proof of Insurance, Lien Holder Service Center Summary or other related correspondence (collectively, the “Agreement to Provide Insurance”).

 

The automobile loan documents described above, including any information obtained from the indicated systems, 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 “Loan 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 Loan 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 Loan Documents. In addition, we make no representations as to whether the Loan Documents are comprehensive or valid instruments or reflect the current prevailing terms with respect to the corresponding Sample Loans.

The results of the foregoing procedures indicated that the Characteristics set forth on the Statistical Loan File were found to be in agreement with the above-mentioned Loan Documents, except as indicated in Appendix A. Supplemental information is contained in Appendix B.

 

******

 

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

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 Loan 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.
