ADVISORY AGREEMENT

THIS ADVISORY AGREEMENT (the “Agreement”) is dated for reference purposes as of August 23, 2021, by and between Five Point Operating Company, LP, a Delaware limited partnership (the “Company”), and Emile Haddad, an individual (the “Advisor”).
RECITALS

A.    Advisor is the Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”), President and Chairman of the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Five Point Holdings, LLC (“FPH”), the parent company of the Company. Advisor is also the founder and an employee of the Company’s subsidiary, Five Point Communities Management, Inc. (“FPCM”).

B.    Through certain subsidiaries or joint ventures, the Company owns and develops some of the largest mixed-use, planned communities in California, including projects in San Francisco, Los Angeles and Orange Counties (individually, a “Project” and collectively, the “Projects”).

C.    The Company and Advisor have announced that Advisor has been elected as Chairman Emeritus of the Company in recognition of his status as a founder of and for his service to FPH and has resigned his positions as CEO, President and Chairman of FPH. As of the “Effective Date” (defined below), Advisor will be leaving his employment at FPCM, so that Advisor can spend more time and attention advising the Company and its affiliates on new ventures and initiatives the Company and its affiliates may consider pursuing within its existing communities.

D.    Given Advisor’s knowledge of the Projects and the markets in which they are located, his expertise in entitling, planning, developing and operating communities of this size and scale, and his relationships with business and community leaders in the state and local communities, the Company desires to engage Advisor as an advisor to the Company and the Board of Directors of FPH (the “Board”) following the resignation and cessation of service described above, pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement. The Company and Advisor are sometimes referred to herein individually as a “Party” and collectively as the “Parties.”

AGREEMENT

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements set forth herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Parties hereby agree as follows:
1.Effectiveness. This Agreement shall become effective (the “Effective Date”) as of immediately following the date the Advisor’s resignation and cessation of service of the Advisor as CEO and President is effective, which is determined to be as of September 30, 2021,



unless it otherwise becomes effective as provided in Section 2(g) of the Transition Agreement (as defined below).
2.Services and Compensation.
(a)During the term of this Agreement, the Advisor shall serve as a senior advisor to the Company and shall perform such services as are mutually agreed upon between the Advisor, on the one hand, and the Company on the other hand (through the Board and the executive management team of the Company and FPH), which services may include (among other things) assessing new ventures and initiatives the Company and its affiliates have been or will be considering within its communities, and reviewing and assessing the business plans and strategy of the Company and its affiliates (collectively, the “Services”). The Parties hereby agree that the Services provided hereunder do not include “lobbying” as that term is defined under state law (including the Political Reform Act, Gov. Code Section 81000 et seq.) or local law (including any municipal code of any County or City). Neither Advisor nor the Company shall classify payments made to Advisor hereunder as payments made to lobbyists or lobbying firms on any lobby disclosure reports filed by Advisor or the Company. If a question arises regarding lobbying activities, the Company and Advisor agree to discuss immediately and take appropriate action, including amendments to this Agreement and compensation paid or payable to Advisor to conform to applicable law. Advisor shall provide the Services at such locations as Advisor determines are appropriate; provided that Advisor agrees to make himself reasonably available for meetings at the Company’s headquarters if required in connection with the Services as provided in Section 2(b) below.

During the term of this Agreement, the Company shall provide the Advisor with use of office space at the Company’s headquarters, as well as administrative support from his executive assistant, as of the date hereof, or any successor executive assistant (if his executive assistant as the date is no longer employed by the Company and its affiliates). In performing the Services, the Advisor will solely report to the Board, the Executive Chairman of the Board and/or the President of FPH.
(c)In consideration for the performance of the Services during the term of this Agreement, the Company shall pay to the Advisor a cash retainer upon the terms and conditions set forth on Exhibit A attached hereto and Advisor shall continue to vest in his

2


outstanding equity awards as set forth on Exhibit A attached hereto in accordance with their terms (as modified by the Transition Agreement and this Agreement).
(d)The Company shall reimburse the Advisor for reasonable expenses, such as travel, lodging, and meal expenses, incurred by the Advisor at the Company’s request or with the Company’s approval, consistent with the Company’s generally applicable policies for non-employee directors or as otherwise agreed by the Executive Chairman of the Board or the President of FPH, in each case, within thirty (30) days after submission of reasonably detailed supporting documentation.
(e)Advisor acknowledges and agrees that, except as provided in this Section 2 or Section 4 below, or in the Employment Transition Agreement, dated as of the date hereof, between the Parties (the “Transition Agreement”), no other amounts, fees, bonuses, equity awards, benefits or other form of compensation, whether monetary or otherwise, shall become due and owing from the Company to Advisor resulting from Advisor’s performance of the Services, unless set forth in writing and signed by the Executive Chairman of the Board.

Advisor further acknowledges and understands that Advisor’s unauthorized disclosure of any Confidential Information would be extremely prejudicial to the Company. Therefore, Advisor shall not disclose to any person or entity any Confidential Information unless such disclosure is authorized in writing by the Company. If Advisor discloses or threatens to disclose Confidential Information in violation of his obligations under this Section 5(a), the Company shall be entitled to seek temporary or permanent injunctive relief prohibiting the disclosure of such Confidential Information. If Advisor is served with any subpoena or other legal process seeking the compelled disclosure of the Company’s Confidential Information, Advisor shall notify the Company within twenty-four (24) hours after Advisor’s receipt of such legal process. The Company may, in its sole and absolute discretion and at the Company’s sole expense, contest the disclosure of such Confidential Information sought under such legal process. Only after a final order of a court of competent jurisdiction requiring the disclosure of such Confidential Information may Advisor disclose such Confidential Information as required by law. This prohibition of disclosure of Confidential Information shall survive the termination of this Agreement.
6.Independent Contractor. The Advisor expressly acknowledges and agrees that he is solely an independent contractor and the Advisor shall not be construed to be an employee of the Company. The Advisor shall have no authority to act on behalf of or to enter into any contract, incur any liability or make any representation on behalf of the Company. The Company shall not be obligated to (a) pay on the account of the Advisor, any unemployment tax or other taxes required under the law to be paid with respect to employees, (b) withhold any monies from the fees of the Advisor for income tax purposes or (c) provide the Advisor with any benefits, including without limitation health, welfare, pension, retirement, or any kind of insurance benefits, including workers’ compensation insurance.

15.    Section 409A. To the extent applicable, this Agreement shall be interpreted in accordance with the applicable exemptions from Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code (the “Code”). To the extent that any provision of the Agreement is ambiguous as to its compliance with Section 409A of the Code, the provision shall be read in such a manner that no payments payable under this Agreement shall be subject to an “additional tax” as defined in Section 409A(a)(1)(B) of the Code.
