FAIR VALUE OF ASSETS AND LIABILITIES | Fair Value of Assets and LiabilitiesProsper measures the fair value of assets and liabilities in accordance with its fair value hierarchy which prioritizes information used to measure fair value and the effect of fair value measurements on earnings and provides for enhanced disclosures determined by the level within the hierarchy of information used in the valuation. The Company applies this framework whenever other standards require (or permit) assets or liabilities to be measured at fair value. Assets and liabilities carried at fair value on the balance sheets are classified among three levels based on the observability of the inputs used to determine fair value: Level 1 — The valuation is based on quoted prices in active markets for identical instruments. Level 2 — The valuation is based on observable inputs such as quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-based valuation methodologies for which all significant assumptions are observable in the market. Level 3 — The valuation is based on unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the instrument. Level 3 valuations are typically performed using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar methodologies, which incorporate management’s own estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the instrument or valuations that require significant management judgment or estimation. Fair values of assets or liabilities are determined based on the fair value hierarchy, which requires an entity to maximize the use of quoted prices and observable inputs and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. Various valuation methodologies are utilized, depending on the nature of the financial instrument, including the use of market prices for identical or similar instruments, or discounted cash flow models. When possible, active and observable market data for identical or similar financial instruments are utilized. Alternatively, fair value is determined using assumptions that management believes a market participant would use in pricing the asset or liability. Prosper did not transfer any assets or liabilities in or out of Level 3 for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 or September 30, 2020. Financial Instruments Recorded at Fair Value The fair value of the Borrower Loans, Loans Held for Sale, Notes, Certificates Issued by Securitization Trust, Servicing Rights and loan trailing fee liability are estimated using discounted cash flow methodologies based upon a set of valuation assumptions. The primary assumptions used in the discounted cash flow model include default and prepayment rates primarily derived from historical performance and discount rates applied to each credit grade based on the perceived credit risk of each credit grade. The Convertible Preferred Stock Warrant Liability is valued using a Black-Scholes option pricing model. Refer to Note 12 for further details. The following tables present the fair value hierarchy for assets and liabilities measured at fair value (in thousands): September 30, 2021 Level 1 Inputs Level 2 Inputs Level 3 Inputs Total Assets: Borrower Loans, at Fair Value $ — $ — $ 254,680 $ 254,680 Loans Held for Sale at Fair Value — — 285,920 285,920 Servicing Assets — — 8,701 8,701 Total Assets $ — $ — $ 549,301 $ 549,301 Liabilities: Notes, at Fair Value $ — $ — $ 253,242 $ 253,242 Convertible Preferred Stock Warrant Liability — — 249,164 249,164 Loan Trailing Fee Liability — — 2,183 2,183 Total Liabilities $ — $ — $ 504,589 $ 504,589 December 31, 2020 Level 1 Inputs Level 2 Inputs Level 3 Inputs Total Assets: Borrower Loans, at Fair Value $ — $ — $ 378,263 $ 378,263 Loans Held for Sale at Fair Value — — 274,621 274,621 Servicing Assets — — 9,242 9,242 Total Assets $ — $ — $ 662,126 $ 662,126 Liabilities: Notes, at Fair Value $ — $ — $ 208,379 $ 208,379 Certificates Issued by Securitization Trust, at Fair Value — — 22,917 22,917 Convertible Preferred Stock Warrant Liability — — 112,319 112,319 Loan Trailing Fee Liability — — 2,233 2,233 Total Liabilities $ — $ — $ 345,848 $ 345,848 As PMI’s Borrower Loans, Loans Held for Sale, Notes, Certificates Issued by Securitization Trust, Convertible Preferred Stock Warrant Liability, servicing assets and loan trailing fee liability do not trade in an active market with readily observable prices, the Company uses significant unobservable inputs to measure the fair value of these assets and liabilities. Financial instruments are categorized in the Level 3 valuation hierarchy based on the significance of unobservable factors in the overall fair value measurement. These fair value estimates may also include observable, actively quoted components derived from external sources. As a result, gains and losses for assets and liabilities within the Level 3 category may include changes in fair value that were attributable to both observable and unobservable inputs. Prosper did not transfer any assets or liabilities in or out of Level 3 for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020. Significant Unobservable Inputs The following tables present quantitative information about the ranges of significant unobservable inputs used for the Company’s Level 3 fair value measurements at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020: Range Borrower Loans, Loans Held for Sale and Notes: September 30, 2021 December 31, 2020 Discount rate 4.6% - 15.1% 4.5% - 17.7% Default rate 2.0% - 16.9% 2.3% - 17.9% Range Certificates Issued by Securitization Trust: December 31, 2020 Discount rate 3.3% - 16.0% Default rate 3.2% - 15.3% Prepayment rate 7.6% - 35.4% Borrower Loans held in consolidated securitization trusts and the associated Certificates Issued by Securitization Trust were deconsolidated from the Company’s balance sheet as of September 27, 2021 (Note 6), and as a result the tables above exclude these financial instruments. Refer to the section below for information about the inputs used to measure the fair value of these Borrower Loans and Certificates Issued by Securitization Trust. Range Servicing Assets: September 30, 2021 December 31, 2020 Discount rate 15.0% - 25.0% 15.0% - 25.0% Default rate 1.6% - 14.7% 1.9% - 17.7% Prepayment rate 10.3% - 29.1% 12.4% - 28.9% Market servicing rate (1) (2) 0.648% - 0.842% 0.625% - 0.818% (1) Servicing assets associated with loans enrolled in a relief program offered by the Company in response to the COVID-19 pandemic as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 were measured using a market servicing rate assumption of 84.2 basis points. This rate was estimated using a multiplier consistent with observable market rates for other loan types, applied to the base market servicing rate assumption of 64.8 basis points. (2) Excludes collection fees that would be passed on to a hypothetical third-party servicer. As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the market rate for collection fees and non-sufficient fund fees was assumed to be 6 basis points and 7 basis points, respectively, for a total market servicing rate range of 70.8 - 90.2 basis points and a total market servicing rate of 69.5 - 88.8 basis points, respectively. Range Loan Trailing Fee Liability September 30, 2021 December 31, 2020 Discount rate 15.0% - 25.0% 15.0% - 25.0% Default rate 1.6% - 14.7% 1.9% - 17.7% Prepayment rate 10.3% - 29.1% 12.4% - 28.9% At September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the discounted cash flow methodology used to estimate the Notes fair values used the same projected cash flows as the related Borrower Loans. Deconsolidated Assets and Liabilities As discussed in Note 6, the Company deconsolidated its Borrower Loans held in securitization trusts and Certificates Issued by Securitization Trust on September 27, 2021. The amounts deconsolidated for these financial instruments represent their estimated fair value on that date. Borrower Loan fair value measurements were determined using significant unobservable inputs, as described in the previous section. Key assumptions for the valuation of Borrower Loans are presented in the following table (in thousands, except percentages): Borrower Loans September 27, 2021 Fair value, using the following assumptions: $ 78,361 Weighted-average discount rate 9.26 % Weighted-average default rate 8.13 % Because the residual certificates held by the Company were sold in a market transaction to an unrelated third party, it was determined that the sales price was a fair representation of their fair value. Market assumptions were derived from the sale and utilized to estimate the fair value of the risk retention interests as well. Key assumptions for the valuation of Certificates Issued by Securitization Trust are presented in the following table (in thousands, except percentages): Certificates Issued by Securitization Trust September 27, 2021 Fair value, using the following assumptions: $ 13,979 Weighted-average discount rate 7.99 % Weighted-average default rate 7.68 % Weighted-average prepayment rate 17.94 % Changes in

The effect on fair value of a variation in assumptions generally cannot be determined because the relationship of the change in assumptions to the fair value may not be linear. Additionally, the impact of a variation in a particular assumption on the fair value is calculated while holding other assumptions constant. In reality, changes in one factor may lead to changes in other factors, which could impact the above hypothetical effects.

FAIR VALUE OF ASSETS AND LIABILITIES | Fair Value of Assets and Liabilities PFL has elected to record certain financial instruments at fair value on the balance sheet. PFL classifies Borrower Loans, Loans Held for Sale and Notes as financial instruments and assesses their fair value each on a quarterly basis for financial statement presentation purposes. Gains and losses on these financial instruments are shown separately on the condensed consolidated statements of operations. As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the discounted cash flow methodology used to estimate the Notes fair values used the same projected cash flows as the related Borrower Loans. As demonstrated in the table below, the fair value adjustments for Borrower Loans were largely offset by the fair value adjustments of the Notes due to the borrower payment dependent design of the Notes and because the principal balances of the Borrower Loans approximated the principal balances of the Notes. Assets and liabilities carried at fair value on the balance sheets are classified among three levels based on the observability of the inputs used to determine fair value: Level 1 — The valuation is based on quoted prices in active markets for identical instruments. Level 2 — The valuation is based on observable inputs such as quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets, quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active, and model-based valuation methodologies for which all significant assumptions are observable in the market. Level 3 — The valuation is based on unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the instrument. Level 3 valuations are typically performed using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar methodologies, which incorporate management’s own estimates of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the instrument or valuations that require significant management judgment or estimation. Fair values of assets or liabilities are determined based on the fair value hierarchy, which requires an entity to maximize the use of quoted prices and observable inputs and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. Various valuation methodologies are utilized, depending on the nature of the financial instrument, including the use of market prices for identical or similar instruments, or discounted cash flow models. When possible, active and observable market data for identical or similar financial instruments are utilized. Alternatively, fair value is determined using assumptions that management believes a market participant would use in pricing the asset or liability. PFL did not transfer any assets or liabilities in or out of Level 3 for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 or 2020. Financial Instruments Recorded at Fair Value The fair value of the Borrower Loans and Notes are estimated using discounted cash flow methodologies based upon a set of valuation assumptions. The primary cash flow assumptions used to value such Borrower Loans and Notes include default and prepayment rates derived primarily from historical performance and discount rates that reflect estimates of the rates of return that investors would require when investing in financial instruments with similar characteristics. The following tables present the fair value hierarchy for assets and liabilities measured at fair value (in thousands): September 30, 2021 Level 1 Inputs Level 2 Inputs Level 3 Inputs Total Assets: Borrower Loans, at Fair Value $ — $ — $ 254,680 $ 254,680 Servicing Assets — — 9,968 9,968 Total Assets $ — $ — $ 264,648 $ 264,648 Liabilities: Notes, at Fair Value $ — $ — $ 253,242 $ 253,242 Loan Trailing Fee Liability — — 2,183 2,183 Total Liabilities $ — $ — $ 255,425 $ 255,425 December 31, 2020 Level 1 Inputs Level 2 Inputs Level 3 Inputs Total Assets: Borrower Loans, at Fair Value $ — $ — $ 209,670 $ 209,670 Servicing Assets — — 11,088 11,088 Total Assets $ — $ — $ 220,758 $ 220,758 Liabilities: Notes, at Fair Value $ — $ — $ 208,379 $ 208,379 Loan Trailing Fee Liability — — 2,233 2,233 Total Liabilities $ — $ — $ 210,612 $ 210,612 As PFL’s Borrower Loans, Notes, Servicing Assets and loan trailing fee liability do not trade in an active market with readily observable prices, PFL uses significant unobservable inputs to measure the fair value of these assets and liabilities. Financial instruments are categorized in the Level 3 valuation hierarchy based on the significance of unobservable factors in the overall fair value measurement. These fair value estimates may also include observable, actively quoted components derived from external sources. As a result, the realized and unrealized gains and losses for assets and liabilities within the Level 3 category may include changes in fair value that were attributable to both observable and unobservable inputs. Significant Unobservable Inputs The following tables present quantitative information about the significant unobservable inputs used for PFL’s Level 3 fair value measurements at the dates presented: Range Borrower Loans and Notes September 30, 2021 December 31, 2020 Discount rate 4.6% - 15.0% 5.3% - 16.1% Default rate 2.0% - 14.0% 2.6% - 16.2% Range Servicing Assets September 30, 2021 December 31, 2020 Discount rate 15.0% - 25.0% 15.0% - 25.0% Default rate 1.6% - 14.7% 1.9% - 17.7% Prepayment rate 10.3% - 29.1% 12.4% - 28.9% Market servicing rate (1) (2) 0.648% - 0.842% 0.625% - 0.818% (1) Servicing assets associated with loans enrolled in a relief program offered by the Company in response to the COVID-19 pandemic as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 were measured using a market servicing rate assumption of 84.2 basis points. This rate was estimated using a multiplier consistent with observable market rates for other loan types, applied to the base market servicing rate assumption of 64.8 basis points. (2) Excludes collection fees that would be passed on to a hypothetical third-party servicer. As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the market rate for collection fees and non-sufficient fund fees was assumed to be 6 basis points and 7 basis points, respectively, for a total market servicing rate range of 70.8 - 90.2 basis points and a total market servicing rate of 69.5 - 88.8 basis points, respectively.

Notes September 30, 2021 December 31, 2020 Fair value, using the following assumptions: $ 253,242 $ 208,379 Weighted-average discount rate 6.71 % 8.93 % Weighted-average default rate 10.66 % 12.26 % Fair value resulting from: 100 basis point increase in discount rate $ 250,713 $ 206,528 200 basis point increase in discount rate $ 248,247 $ 204,720 Fair value resulting from: 100 basis point decrease in discount rate $ 255,838 $ 210,274 200 basis point decrease in discount rate $ 258,503 $ 212,217 Fair value resulting from: 10 percent increase in default rate $ 251,021 $ 206,304 20 percent increase in default rate $ 248,814 $ 204,238 Fair value resulting from: 10 percent decrease in default rate $ 255,477 $ 210,463 20 percent decrease in default rate $ 257,727 $ 212,558 Key economic assumptions are used to compute the fair value of Servicing Assets. The sensitivity of the current fair value to immediate changes in assumptions at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 for Servicing Assets are presented in the following table (in thousands, except percentages). Servicing Assets September 30, 2021 December 31, 2020 Fair value, using the following assumptions: $ 9,968 $ 11,088 Weighted-average market servicing rate 0.650 % 0.631 % Weighted-average prepayment rate 18.89 % 19.84 % Weighted-average default rate 11.83 % 12.78 % Fair value resulting from: Market servicing rate increase of 0.025% $ 9,333 $ 10,424 Market servicing rate decrease of 0.025% $ 10,602 $ 11,752 Fair value resulting from: Applying a 1.1 multiplier to prepayment rate $ 9,774 $ 10,874 Applying a 0.9 multiplier to prepayment rate $ 10,164 $ 11,304 Fair value resulting from: Applying a 1.1 multiplier to default rate $ 9,836 $ 10,936 Applying a 0.9 multiplier to default rate $ 10,100 $ 11,239 These sensitivities are hypothetical and should be evaluated with care. The effect on fair value of a variation in assumptions generally cannot be determined because the relationship of the change in assumptions to the fair value may not be linear. Additionally, the impact of a variation in a particular assumption on the fair value is calculated while holding other assumptions constant. In reality, changes in one factor may lead to changes in other factors, which could impact the above hypothetical effects. |
