Dear Sirs/Madams,

**2023 ANNUAL AGREED UPON PROCEDURES IN RELATION TO THE HOLMES MASTER ISSUER PLC RESIDENTIAL MORTGAGE-BACKED NOTE PROGRAMME**

We have performed the procedures enumerated below on certain mortgage loans (the "Loan Pool"), which were agreed to by the Issuer, the Seller and the Arranger (as defined in the Engagement Letter). The procedures were performed to assist you in evaluating the validity of certain characteristics of the Loan Pool. This agreed upon procedures engagement was conducted in accordance with attestation standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. The appropriateness of these procedures is solely the responsibility of the Issuer, the Seller and the Arranger. Consequently, we make no representation regarding the appropriateness of the procedures described below either for the purpose for which this report has been requested or for any other purpose.

The Issuer and the Seller shall be solely responsible for providing accurate and complete information requested by Deloitte necessary to perform the procedures.

![](deloitte2.jpg)

The procedures that we performed and our findings are as follows:

**1. Scope of our work and factual findings**

The procedures performed were as defined in Appendix 2 of the Engagement Letter (the "Agreed Upon Procedures").

The Seller provided us with a data file 'Loan_List.xlsx' (the "First Pool Run") containing a loan identifier for each of the 23,406 loans in the Loan Pool.

A random sample of 456 loans was selected from the First Pool Run using the sampling approach below (the "Sample").

The Seller then provided the data file 'HOL_AUD_DEC22_Final_Audit.xlsx' containing information for each loan in the Sample (the "Sample Pool") as at 31 December 2022 (the "Cut-off Date").

We have carried out the Agreed upon Procedures on the Sample Pool during the period 20 January to 17 February 2023.

**The sampling approach**

Sampling confidence is the probability that the actual errors, within a total population, are contained within the range of an estimate. Precision is the range of that estimate. The precision limit is the estimated maximum predicted number of errors within the total population. Sampling confidence and precision are stated in percentages.

Attribute sampling is a method of assessing the rate of occurrences of a specified attribute in a population and requires agreed upon procedures in relation to certain characteristics of a random sample of individual loans. In this case the Agreed Upon Procedures related to the documentation and procedures that support the Sample Pool contained in the First Pool Run.

Our method of calculating attribute sample sizes is based on the binomial probability distribution.

Statistical tests can only provide estimates of the error.

The procedures we have undertaken, set out in paragraphs 2.1 to 2.24 under the pool agreed upon procedures section below, has been limited to confirming that the selected attribute from the First Pool Run information relating to the Sample Pool agreed to the original loan documentation or copies thereof provided to us in the loan file. We are entitled to assume that the loan documentation is correct and we have not sought to independently verify this information. The loan documentation used in these Agreed upon Procedures was the offer letter, additional borrowing offer letter, credit limit review, Certificate of Title ("COT"), the completion letter, Official Copy of Register Entries, original or latest valuation report (the "valuation report") or subsequent valuer's letter, the ANMF system, (the "System") and the data file 'HOL_AUD_DEC22 v1.xlsx' (the "System extract").

**Objectives**

On the assumption that the information in the First Pool Run is a complete and accurate representation of the Loan Pool, the sample sizes chosen were designed with the objective of us being able to state that we are 99% confident that not more than 1% of the population of the First Pool Run contained an error in the relevant attribute. Where errors were found in the Sample Pool, we have re-calculated the percentage errors that there might be in the First Pool Run and noted the revised percentage below. It is for you to ensure you understand this basis of reporting and to determine whether the errors are acceptable to you and for the purposes of the Update.

**2. Pool agreed upon procedures**

For each loan in the Sample Pool we carried out the following agreed upon procedures and have given a confidence and precision percentage for each procedure.

For the purposes of this report, the failure of a single attribute is termed an error.

2.1. Borrower
 Name(s)

In cases where the surname of one borrower changed to the surname of a joint borrower, we were informed by the management of the Seller that such changes are as a result of changes in the marital status of the borrowers. For the avoidance of doubt, we did not check that any change in the surname of the borrower was due to a change in their marital status, as no evidence of changes to the marital status was available in the mortgage files. In relation to tests 2.1.1-2.1.2 below, substantially agreed is defined as being able to identify the borrower name(s) where minor spelling errors or reversals of initials had occurred.

2.1.1. For
 each loan in the Sample Pool, we confirmed whether the borrower name(s) shown on the Sample
 Pool substantially agreed to that shown on the offer letter, additional borrowing offer letter
 or credit limit review. We found that the borrower name(s) shown on the Sample Pool substantially
 agreed to the offer letter, additional borrowing offer letter or credit limit review, except
 for 1 case.

 We found that the borrower name(s) shown on the Sample Pool substantially agreed to the COT
 or Official Copy of Register Entries, with no exception.

As a result of the procedures performed there is a 99% confidence that not more than 1% of the First Pool Run contained errors.

2.2. Property
 Address

We were instructed by the management of the Seller that this procedure should not include agreeing the postcode if other segments of the property address were sufficient to identify the property. In addition, for new build properties, we were instructed by the management of the Seller that, where the original plot address and final full postal address differ, these differences are expected as a mortgage progresses from application to completion and thus these should not be considered to be errors if the property address was not substantially changed. For the avoidance of doubt, if the postcode was missing, incomplete or incorrect, or if the original plot address and final full postal address did not substantially differ, they were not considered to be an error. In relation to tests 2.2.1-2.2.3 below, substantially agreed is defined as being able to identify the property address where minor spelling errors has occurred.

2.2.1 For
 each loan in the Sample Pool, we confirmed whether the property address shown on the Sample
 Pool substantially agreed with that shown on the offer letter, additional borrowing offer
 letter or credit limit review. We found that the property address shown on the Sample Pool
 substantially agreed to the offer letter, additional borrowing offer letter or credit limit
 review, except for 1 case.
