Ladies and Gentlemen:

        Reference is hereby made to that certain (i) Naming Rights Agreement dated as of February 28, 2017 by and among Banc of California, National Association (“BOC”), LAFC Sports, LLC (“LAFC TeamCo”), LAFC StadiumCo, LLC (“LAFC StadCo”) (LAFC TeamCo and LAFC StadCo may individually or collectively be referred to herein as “LAFC”) and LAFC Partners, LLLP (“LAFC Parent”) (the “Naming Rights Agreement”); (ii) Sponsor Agreement dated as of February 28, 2017 by and between LAFC TeamCo, BOC, LAFC Parent, LAFC StadCo, LAFC Sports Foundation, and LAFC AncillaryCo, LLC (the “Sponsor Agreement”); (iii) Community Engagement Agreement dated as of February 28, 2017 by and between BOC and LAFC TeamCo (the “Community Engagement Agreement”); (iv) Los Angeles Football Club Stadium Suite Lease Agreement dated as of April 27, 2018 by and between LAFC TeamCo and BOC (the “Existing Suite Agreement”); and (v) Sublease Agreement dated as of December 2018 by and between BOC and LAFC StadCo (“ATM Sublease Agreement”), with respect and relating to the naming rights, sponsorship and other agreements among such parties (each such agreement, together with any and all other agreements among any of such LAFC and BOC parties, are referred to herein collectively as the “Agreements”, provided that neither this letter agreement (this “Letter Agreement”) nor the Suite License Agreement (as defined below) is or shall be deemed an “Agreement” for purposes of this Letter Agreement). Capitalized terms used herein without definition have the meanings set forth in the Naming Rights Agreement. As used herein, the term “party” shall mean, as the context requires, (a) an entity listed on the signature page hereof or (b) BOC, on the one hand, and all of the entities listed on the signature page hereof other than BOC, on the other hand.

        For good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the parties hereby agree as follows:

1.Amendment of the Naming Rights Agreement.

a.Section 10.B of the Naming Rights Agreement is hereby amended as follows:

“Additional Termination Rights of Sponsor. Sponsor may terminate this Agreement upon: (a) the Team’s failure to operate as an active MLS franchise pursuant to League Rules; (b) any Force Majeure event that results in closure of all or any material portion of the Facility to the public for a period equal to or greater than six (6) consecutive calendar months; (c) any permanent relocation of the Team to any venue other than the Facility, other than ordinary course travel for Games that are not Home Games, and other than as expressly permitted by

the Non-Relocation Agreement; (dc) any Team Change of Control in which the successor-in-interest of LAFC in and to the Team does not agree to honor all of the LAFC Parties’ obligations under this Agreement; and (ed) proper termination of the Lease.”

b.Except as expressly set forth in this Letter Agreement, and subject to Paragraph 3 below (Termination of the Agreements), all of the provisions of each of the Agreements are and shall otherwise remain unmodified and in full force and effect (including without limitation any financial literacy program and/or community events that are to be effected under the Community Engagement Agreement) until their expiration or termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Agreements, BOC shall not be required to make any payments under any of the Agreements or to satisfy any of its obligations under any of the Agreements (i) from and after the date hereof until the date as of which the first LAFC MLS regular season home match is played at the Stadium after the date hereof with not fewer than 5,500 attendees having tickets granting access to the Stadium for such match in attendance at the Stadium for such match (the “Recommencement Date”), provided that in no event shall such obligations survive the Termination (as defined below), except as set forth in Paragraph 3(c) of this Letter Agreement, or (ii) during any Subsequent Shutdown Period (as defined below). Except as set forth in the following sentence, BOC shall not be deemed in breach or default under any of the Agreements for any failure to perform any of its obligations under any of the Agreements after the execution hereof. As of (or as promptly as reasonably practicable following) the later of the Recommencement Date and the date which is five business days after BOC’s receipt of written notice as to the date of the Recommencement Date (and provided such date takes place prior to the Termination, as defined below), BOC’s obligations under the Agreements shall recommence in accordance with the terms thereof until the effectiveness of the Termination (subject to such adjustments thereto as are appropriate under the circumstances, as agreed to by the parties in good faith), with any of BOC’s payment obligations and/or BOC’s obligations to incur expenses under the Agreements being deemed pro-rated on a 1/366 per day basis for the period commencing on the Recommencement Date and concluding as of the effectiveness of the Termination and being deemed satisfied if paid or incurred on or prior to December 31, 2020, provided that, in the event of a Subsequent Shutdown Period, (x) BOC’s obligations under the Agreements shall not apply during any Subsequent Shutdown Period and (y) no days during any Subsequent Shutdown Period shall be counted in the numerator for purposes of calculating BOC’s pro-rated payment obligations and obligations to incur expenses as described in this sentence.

For purposes of this Letter Agreement, “Subsequent Shutdown Period” shall mean any period after the Recommencement Date during which the MLS has suspended or cancelled the MLS season or MLS matches are no longer permitted (by the MLS, SUM, governmental authorities or otherwise) to be played at the Stadium with at least 5,500 attendees having tickets granting access to the Stadium for such match in attendance at the Stadium for such match.

CONFIDENTIAL		EXECUTION COPY

By way of example and not limitation, in the event that the period commencing on the Recommencement Date (assuming the Recommencement Date takes place prior to the effectiveness of the Termination) and concluding on the date of the effectiveness of the Termination were to consist of 100 days and there was a Subsequent Shutdown Period of 20 days during such period, the amount payable by BOC pursuant to Exhibit 13 of the Naming Rights Agreement with respect to such period (other than the Subsequent Shutdown Period, with respect to which no amount would be payable pursuant to the Agreements) would equal $1,205,050.93 (which, for the avoidance of doubt, would be in addition to, and in no way reduced by, the approximately$2,750,000 fee already paid to LAFC for 2020).

2.Consideration.

a.Within five (5) business days following the date hereof, BOC shall pay $20,100,000 (“Buyout Fee”) in one single lump sum to LAFC by wire transfer of immediately available funds into an account designated by LAFC on or prior to the date hereof.In the event that any portion of the Buyout Fee is not paid when due, BOC shall pay LAFC interest on the unpaid portion of the Buyout Fee at a rate equal to the “prime rate” published in the Wall Street Journal from time to time, from (and including) the date such amount was due to (but excluding) the date such amount is paid.

b.Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any of the Agreements, and except as otherwise set forth in this Letter Agreement, any and all monies received by LAFC to-date under the Agreements are hereby deemed to be non-refundable and are not subject to be returned by LAFC for any reason whatsoever.

3.Termination of the Agreements.

a.Unless otherwise terminated earlier, and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any of the Agreements, all of the Agreements shall each automatically (without any further action required of any party) terminate, and are hereby terminated, effective as of 11:59pm Pacific time on December 31, 2020.

b.Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in any of the Agreements, the Agreements then in effect may be terminated prior to 11:59pm Pacific time on December 31, 2020 by LAFC following written notice to BOC (“Notice of Termination”) at any time after it reaches agreement for (i) a naming rights arrangement or (ii) a sponsorship arrangement with any person or entity in or for the financial services category (any such agreement which BOC hereby expressly agrees may be reached by or on behalf of LAFC without the need for any approvals or waivers that might otherwise have been required under one or more of the Agreements), effective on the receipt by BOC from LAFC of the payment contemplated by Paragraph 3(d) hereof (or, if later, 10 days after delivery of the Notice of Termination), provided that (i) such termination shall not be effective until at least 10 days after delivery of Notice of Termination (with LAFC and BOC to work together diligently and in good faith during such 10 day period to
