Management's Responsibility for the Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of consolidated financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error. Auditor's Responsibility Our responsibihty is to express an opinion on these consolidated financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free from material misstatement. An audit involves performing procedures to obtain audit evidence about the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements. The procedures selected depend on the auditor's judgment, including the assessment of the risks of material misstatement of the consolidated financial statements, whether due to fraud or error. In making those risk assessments, the auditor considers internal control relevant to the entity's preparation and fair presentation of the consolidated financial statements in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity's internal control. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes evaluating the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overaH presentation of the consolidated financial statements. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.

Nature of Business Velocity Portfolio Group, Inc. (the "Company" ) consists of the following entities: Velocity Investments, L.L.C. ("Velocity" ) was established to invest in consumer receivable portfolios purchased in the secondary market. Velocity purchases consumer receivable portfolios at a discount and then liquidates these portfolios through legal collection means. Velocity Investments SPV I, LLC ("Velocity SPV") was formed on February 12, 2010 to invest in consumer receivable portfolios purchased in the secondary market. On October 12, 2010, the Company acquired full interest in the Veiocity SPV. Velocity Servicing, LLC ("VS") was formed on August 18, 2010 to provide servicing of third party accounts receivable through the legal collection process. 2. Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Principles of Consolidation The consolidated financial statements of the Company are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less, when acquired, to be cash equivalents. Restricted Cash Under the terms of the Credit Facility (as defined in Note 5), collection proceeds from the consumer receivables portfolios securing loans are maintained in a separate account until disbursed. Disbursements of these funds are generaily performed monthly for debt and interest payments. In addition, under the Credit Facility, the Company maintains a restricted reserve account from which funds are held solely to remit to lender for disbursement through distributionlrepayment arrangement under Credit Facility. Restricted cash was 5 't December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Concentration of Credit Risk Financial instruments, which potentially expose the Company to concentrations of credit risk, consist primarily of cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and consumer receivables. The Company places its cash and cash equivalents primariiy in three financial institutions. At times, cash balances may be in excess of the amounts insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation ("FDIC" ). Management considers the risk of loss to be minimal. As of December 31, 2019 and 2018, there were no significant concentrations of receivables, payables, or related credit risks. During the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, four entities accounted for 96% and three entities accounted for 85K of portfolio purchases, respectively. 10 CONFIDENTIAL VEL00029 Velocity Portfolio Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements Revenue Recognition Consumer Receivables, net The Company purchases consumer receivable portfolios at a substantial discount from their face amount due to a deterioration of credit quality between the time of origination and the Company's acquisition of the portfolios. Upon acquisition, the Company reviews each consumer receivable portfolio to determine whether each such portfolio is to be accounted for individually or whether such portfolio wiil be assembled into static pools of consumer receivable portfolios based on common risk characteristics. The Company is unable to develop reasonable estimates of the customer receivable portfolios cash flows due to uncertainties related to the timing of the collections of the older judgments purchased as a result of the economic environment, and the lack of validation of certain account components, and therefore, records revenue using the cost recovery method. Under the cost recovery method, no revenue is recognized until the Company has fully collected the cost of the pool. There can be no assurance as to when or if the carrying value will be recovered. The Company estimates and capitalizes certain fees paid and to be paid to third parties related to the direct acquisition and coHection of a portfolio of accounts. These fees are added to the cost of the individual portfolio. An offsetting liability is included as "Accrued court costs" on the Consolidated Balance Sheets which is reduced by actual expenditures as paid. The Company records consumer receivables net of valuation allowances for aH acquired loans subject to ASC 310-30 "Loan and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality" to reflect only those losses incurred after acquisition. Third Party Servicing Revenue The Company pays certain legal costs in advance on behalf of its third-party servicing revenue customers and these costs are included within other assets in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. All cash received against the third-party receivables are offset against the advance until the advance is satisfied. As warranted by facts and circumstances, the Company annualiy assesses the recoverability of the advanced legal costs. The Company did not have any impairment indicators during the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018. Advanced court costs at December 31, 2019 and 2018 were 578,966 and 5-, respectively, and are recorded within Other Assets in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. During the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, VS generated 100% of its revenue from recovery of delinquent accounts receivable on behalf of its customers through a contingency based fee. The contingency fee revenue is recognized upon collection of funds by VS or its client as this is when all revenue recognition criteria have been met. Use of Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. Significant estimates 11 CONFIDENTIAL VEL00030 Velocity Portfolio Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements include the useful lives of capital assets and depreciation expense, residual interest liability and accrued court costs. Fair Value of Financial Instruments Fair value is a market-based measurement, which is defined as the price that would be received to seli an asset or transfer a liabiiity in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Valuation techniques for fair value measurements include the market approach (comparable market prices), the income approach (present value of future income or cash flow) and the cost approach (cost to replace the service capacity of an asset or replacement cost), which are each based upon observable and unobservable inputs. Observable inputs reflect market data obtained from independent sources, while unobservable inputs reflect the Company's market assumptions. The Company utilizea'a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes inputs to fair value measurement techniques into three broad levels: ~ Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices for identicai assets or liabilities in active markets. ~ Level 2: Observable inputs other than quoted prices that are directly or indirectly observable for the asset or (iabi(ity, including quoted prices for similar asset or liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for similar or identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active; and mode-derived valuations whose inputs are observable or whose significant value drivers are observable. ~ Level 3: Unobservable inputs that reflect the reporting entity's own assumptions. The asset's or liability's fair value measurement level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. Valuation techniques used need to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs. The fair value of long-term debt approximates the carrying value, as the Company's credit facilities bear interest at market-based interest rates. The changes in the carrying amount of the residual interest liability for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 201 8 are as foilows: Balance as of December 31, 2017 Fair value adjustment Balance as of December 31, 2018 Fair value adjustment Balance as of December 31, 2019 12 CONF IDENTIAL VEL00031 Velocity Portfolio Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements Fair Value Measurement as of December 31, 2019 Quoted Prices Significant In Active Other Markets for Observable Identical Assets Inputs 1 2 Significant Unobservable Inputs 3 Residual Interest Total Residual interest liability measured at fair value on a recurring basis is summarized below: Total Residuai Interest Liability Total Fair Value Measurement as of December 31, 2018 Quoted Prices Significant In Active Other Significant Markets for Observable Unobservabie Identical Assets Inputs Inputs (Level 1) (Level 2) (Level 3) 5 - S 5 - S - S Total The foHowing is quantitative information about significant unobservable inputs (level 3) for the Company as of December 31, 2019 and 201 8: Fair value at 12/31/2019 Va(uation technique Unobservable Inputs Value Residual Interest Liability Discounted Cash Flow Discount rate 20K Fair value at 12/31/2018 Valuation technique Unobservable inputs Value Residual Interest Liability Discounted Cash Flow Discount rate 20K The remainder of this page intentionaiiy left b(ank 13 CONFIDENTIAL VEL00032 Velocity Portfolio Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements Property and Equipment, net Property and equipment are recorded at cost and depreciated using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The Company provides for depreciation, as follows: Software and computer equipment Furniture and fixtures Office equipment Leasehold improvements Estimated Useful Life 3-5 years 5 years 5-7 years Shorter of estimated useful life or lease term income Taxes In accordance with ASC-740 "Income Taxes" the Company recognizes deferred tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the financial statements or tax returns. Under this method, deferred tax liabilities and assets are determined based on the difference between the financial statement and tax bases of assets and liabilities using enacted tax rates in effect for the year in which the differences are expected to reverse. The Company records a valuation allowance against any portion of the deferred income tax asset when it believes, based upon the weight of available evidence, it is more likely than not that some portion of the deferred asset will not be realized. The Company recognizes a tax benefit from an uncertain position only if it is more likely than not the position is sustainable, based solely on its technical merits and consideration of the relevant taxing authority's widely understood administrative practices and precedents. If this threshold is met, the Company measures the tax benefit as the largest amount of benefit that is greater than fifty percent likely being realized upon ultimate settlement. The Company is subject to potential examination by taxing authorities in various jurisdictions. The open tax years under potential examination vary by jurisdiction. The Company recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. As of December 31, 2019 and 2018, the Company did not record any uncertain tax liability. Debt Discount In December 2016, as noted below, the Company issued 300,000 warrants to a related party, for the purchase of Common Stock in connection with a 51,500,000 promissory note payable. The fair value of the warrants was 548,000 was recorded as Additional Paid-In Capital and a debt discount against the related party note payable. As of December 31, 2019 and 2018, the debt discount recorded against the related party note payable was 5- and 516,000, respectively. Amortization of the debt discount for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 was $ 16,000. 14 CONFIDENTIAL VEL00033 Velocity Portfolio Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial. Statements Residual Interest Liability The Company records the fair value of the residual interest (Notes 5 and 6) as a component of debt in the accompanying Consolidated Balance Sheets. The liability is marked to market each reporting period and the change is reflected as an increase/decrease in interest expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The residual interest liability was $26,099,583 and 521,602,303 as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. The residual interest liability is calculated based upon a discounted cash flows model and includes assumptions such as discount rates, time to collection, participation interest percentages, and various other assumptions. Warrants The Company relies on the guidance provided by ASC Topic 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity, to classify convertible instruments, such as the Company's warrants. The Company first determines whether a financial instrument should be classified as a liability. The Company will determine the liability classification if the financial instrument is mandatorily redeemable, or if the financial instrument, other than outstanding shares, embodies a conditional obligation that the Company must or may settle by issuing a variable number of its equity shares. Once the Company determines that a financial instrument should not be classified as a liability, the Company determines whether the financial instrument should be presented between the liability section and the equity section of the consolidated balance sheet ("temporary equity"). The Company will determine temporary equity classification if the redemption of the warrants or other financial instrument is outside the control of the Company (i.e. at the option of the holder). Otherwise, the Company accounts for the financial instrument as permanent equity. On December 21, 2016, the Company issued 300,000 warrants to a related party, for the purchase of Common Stock in connection with a 51,500,000 promissory note payable. The warrants vested upon issuance and have a three-year term with an exercise price of $0.50 and are classified as equity. The 548,000 fair value of the warrants was recorded as Additional Paid-In Capital and a debt discount against the related party note payable, respectively. On December 31, 2019, the related party exercised the warrant and purchased 300,000 shares of common stock at the exercise price of 50.50. The Company received cash proceeds of $ 150,000 of which 5300 was recorded as Common Stock at par value 50.001, and 5149,700 was recorded as Additional Paid-In Capital. Notes Receivable Notes receivable are valued at management's estimate of the amount that will ultimately be collected which approximate fair value. The Company ceases accrual of interest when the Company can no longer assert that the likelihood of collection is probable. Accounts are written off when they are deemed uncollectible. During the year ended December 31, 2014, the Company entered into agreements with various parties for the purchases of consumer receivable portfolios. Under these agreements, the Company loans the parties funds for the purchase of portfolios. The loans were to be repaid through proceeds from portfolio collections and had various maturity dates ranging from March to June 2016. The loans bear interest at a rate of 13K per annum. Due to collection uncertainty, the Company placed a reserve in the amount of 523,585 and $30,156 to fully reserve these notes receivable at December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. 15 CONFIDENTIAL VEL00034 Velocity Portfolio Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements Earnings per Share Basic earnings per share are computed based on the weighted average number of common stock shares outstanding during each period. Outstanding shares of common stock were 9,808,221 and 9,458,221 for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. Dilutive shares have not been presented as the effect would be anti-dilutive. Legal The Company is party to various legal proceedings that arise in the normal course of business. In the present opinion of management, none of these proceedings, individually or in the aggregate, are likely to have a material adverse effect on the financial position or results of operations or cash flows of the Company. However, management cannot provide assurance that any adverse outcome would not be material to the Company's financial position or consolidated resuits of operations or cash flows. Investment in Galaxy Asset Management, LLC On January 15, 2017, the Company purchased 20,000 membership units or 20% of Galaxy Asset Management LLC. In acquiring this interest, the Company is also responsible for 20/ of the operating costs of Galaxy Asset Management. Additionally, Galaxy Asset Management, LLC performing services for the Company. The Company accounts for its 20X equity interest in Galaxy Asset Management under the equity method of accounting.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update ("ASU") 2014-09 that introduces a new five-step revenue recognition model in which an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. This ASU also requires disclosures sufficient to enable users to understand the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers, including qualitative and quantitative disclosures about contracts with customers, significant judgments and changes in judgments, and assets recognized from the costs to obtain or fulfill a contract. This standard is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within that 16 CONFIDENTIAL VEL00035 Velocity Portfolio Group, inc. and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements reporting period. The Company evaluated the new guidance and notes that the Company's investment in consumer receivable portfolios is outside of the scope of Topic 606 since it is accounted for in accordance with ASC 310-30 "I oans and Debt Securities Acquired with Deteriorated Credit Quality." In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-02, Leases. The new standard establishes a right-of use (ROU) model that requires a lessee to record a ROU asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. Leases wili be classified as either finance or operating, with classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the income statement. The guidance was initially effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2019. In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-10, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses, Derivatives and Hedging, and Leases: Effective Dates. The amendment deferred the effective dates for Leases by an additional year to annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2020. In June 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-05, Revenue from Contracts with Customers and Leases. The amendment deferred the effective dates for leases by an additional year to annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2021. The Company is currently evaluating the new guidance to determine the impact, if any, it will have on its financial statements and related disclosures. In August 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-15, Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments. The guidance addresses the classification of cash flows related to debt repayment or extinguishment costs, settlement of zero-coupon debt instruments or debt instruments with coupon rates that are insignificant in relation to the effective interest rate of the borrowing, contingent consideration payments made after a business combination, proceeds from the settlement of insurance claims and corporate-owned life insurance, distributions received from equity method investees and beneficial interest in securitization transactions. This update is effective for all annual periods beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. The adoption of this standard did not have material impact on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures. In November 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-18, Restricted Cash, that includes specific guidance on the classification and presentation of changes in restricted cash and cash equivalents in the statement of cash flows. The amendments in this ASU require that a statement of cash flows explain the change during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents, and amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents. Amounts generally described as restricted cash or restricted cash equivalents will be included with cash and cash equivalents when reconciling the beginning of the period and end of the period total amounts shown on the statement of cash flows. The ASU will be applied using a retrospective transition method to each period presented. The Company adopted the amendments in this ASU on January 1, 2019. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company's consoiidated balance sheets and results of operations. In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, that changes the impairment model for most financiai assets and certain other instruments. For receivables, loans and other instruments, entities will be required to use a new forward-looking "expected loss" model that generally will result in the earlier recognition of allowance for losses. For available-for-sale debt securities with unrealized losses, entities will measure credit losses in a manner similar to current practice, except the losses will be recognized as allowances instead of reductions in the amortized cost of the securities. In addition, an entity will have to disclose significantly more information about allowances, credit quality indicators and past due securities. The new provisions will be applied as a cumulative-effect adjustment to retained earnings. This update was initially effective for annual periods beginning after December 17 CONF IOENTIAL VEL00036 Velocity Portfolio Group, Inc. and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements 15, 2020. In November 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-10, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses, Derivatives and Hedging, and Leases: Effective Dates. The amendment deferred the effective dates for Credit Losses to annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2022. The Company is currently evaluating the requirements of this guidance and has not yet determined the impact of its adoption on the Company's consolidated financial position, results of operations and cash flows. 3. Consumer Receivables, net Consumer receivables activity is as follows: Years ended December 31, Balance, beginning of year Acquisitions and capitalized costs Cash collections Income recognized Balance, end of year 2019 2018 In any given period, the Company may be required to record valuation allowances due to poois of receivables which are not expected to be recovered. Factors that may contribute to the recording of valuation allowances may include both internal as well as external factors. External factors which may have an impact on the collectability, and subsequently to the overail profitability of purchased pools of defaulted consumer receivables would include: overall market pricing for pools of consumer receivables (which is driven by both supply and demand), new laws or regulations relating to collections, new interpretations of existing laws or regulations, and the overall condition of the economy. Internal factors which may have an impact on the collectability, and subsequently the overall profitability of purchased pools of defaulted consumer receivables would include: necessary revisions to initial and post-acquisition scoring and modeling estimates, non-optimal operational activities (which relates to the collection and movement of accounts on both the cogection floor of the Company and external channels), as well as decreases in productivity related to turnover and tenure of the Company's collection staff. For the years ended, December 31, 2019 and 2018, the Company did not incur any allowance charges.
