PROXY STATEMENT

ANNUAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS
To Be Held on June 6, 2019

INFORMATION CONCERNING VOTING AND SOLICITATION
General
Your proxy is solicited on behalf of the board of directors (our " Board ") of Five Point Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (as used herein, the " Company ," " we ," " us " or " our "), for use at our 2019 Annual Meeting of Shareholders to be held on June 6, 2019 at 1:00 p.m. local time at the Company's corporate offices, located at 15131 Alton Parkway, Irvine, California 92618, or at any continuation, postponement or adjournment thereof (the " Annual Meeting "), for the purposes discussed in this proxy statement and in the accompanying Notice of Annual Meeting of Shareholders and any other business properly brought before the Annual Meeting. Proxies are solicited to give all shareholders of record an opportunity to vote on matters properly presented at the Annual Meeting.
We have elected to provide access to our proxy materials over the Internet. Accordingly, we are sending a Notice of Internet Availability of Proxy Materials (the " Notice ") to our shareholders of record, while brokers and other nominees who hold shares on behalf of beneficial owners will be sending their own similar notice. All shareholders will have the ability to access the proxy materials on the website referred to in the Notice or request to receive a printed set of the proxy materials. Instructions on how to request a printed copy by mail or electronically may be found on the Notice and on the website referred to in the Notice, including an option to request paper copies on an ongoing basis. On or about April 26, 2019, we intend to make this proxy statement available on the Internet and to mail the Notice to all shareholders entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting. We intend to mail this proxy statement, together with a proxy card, to those shareholders entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting who have properly requested paper copies of such materials, within three business days of such request.
Some banks, brokers and other nominee record holders may be participating in the practice of "householding" proxy materials. This means that only one copy of our proxy materials or the Notice, as applicable, may have been sent to multiple shareholders in the same house. We will promptly deliver a separate Notice and, if requested, a separate proxy statement and annual report, to each shareholder that makes a request using the procedure set forth on the Notice.
Important Notice Regarding the Availability of Proxy Materials for the 2019 Annual Meeting of Shareholders to be Held on June 6, 2019.
The Notice of Annual Meeting, this proxy statement, our 2018 Annual Report and a sample proxy card are available at www.proxyvote.com . You are encouraged to access and review all of the important information contained in the proxy materials before voting.
Who Can Vote, Outstanding Shares
You are entitled to vote if you were a shareholder of record of either our Class A common shares or our Class B common shares (referred to collectively herein as " Common Shares ") as of the close of business on April 9, 2019 (the " Record Date "). As of the close of business on the Record Date, 68,746,555 of our Class A common shares and 79,275,234 of our Class B common shares were outstanding. Holders of Common Shares as of the Record Date are entitled to one vote for each Common Share held on all matters to be voted upon at the Annual Meeting. Your shares may be voted at the Annual Meeting only if you are present in person or represented by a valid proxy.
Voting of Shares
Any shareholder as of the Record Date may vote by attending the Annual Meeting and voting in person or by submitting a proxy. The method of voting by proxy differs (1) depending on whether you are viewing this proxy statement on the Internet or receiving a paper copy and (2) for shares held as a record holder and shares held in "street name."
Record Holders . If you hold your shares as a record holder and you are viewing this proxy statement on the Internet, you may vote by submitting a proxy over the Internet by following the instructions on the website referred to in the Notice previously mailed to you. You may request paper copies of the proxy statement and proxy card by following the instructions on the Notice. If you hold your shares as a record holder and you are reviewing a paper copy of this proxy statement, you may vote your shares by completing, dating and signing the proxy card that was included with the proxy statement and promptly returning it in the pre-addressed, postage paid envelope provided to you, or by submitting a proxy over the Internet or by telephone by following the instructions on the proxy card.

1



Street Name . If you hold your shares in street name, which means your shares are held of record by a broker, bank or nominee, you will receive a notice from your broker, bank or other nominee that includes instructions on how to vote your shares. Your broker, bank or nominee will allow you to deliver your voting instructions over the Internet and may also permit you to vote by telephone. In addition, you may request paper copies of the proxy statement and proxy card from your broker by following the instructions on the Notice provided by your broker.
Shareholders may provide voting instructions by telephone by calling toll free 1-800-690-6903 from the U.S. or Canada, or via the Internet at  www.proxyvote.com  at any time before 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on June 5, 2019. Telephone and Internet voting access is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week until 11:59 p.m. Eastern Time on June 5, 2019. Please have your notice and proxy control number in hand when you telephone or visit the website. If you vote through the Internet, you should be aware that you may incur costs to access the Internet, such as usage charges from telephone companies or Internet service providers and that these costs must be borne by you. If you vote by Internet or telephone, then you need not return a written proxy card by mail.
YOUR VOTE IS VERY IMPORTANT. You should submit your proxy even if you plan to attend the Annual Meeting. If you properly give your proxy and submit it to us in time to vote, one of the individuals named as your proxy will vote your shares as you have directed.
All shares entitled to vote and represented by properly submitted proxies (including those submitted electronically, telephonically and in writing) received before the polls are closed at the Annual Meeting, and not revoked or superseded, will be voted at the Annual Meeting in accordance with the instructions indicated on those proxies. If, as a record holder, you do not indicate your voting directions on your signed proxy, your shares will be voted according to the recommendation of our Board, as follows:
" FOR " the election of each of Richard Beckwitt, William Browning and Michael Rossi to the Board for a three-year term expiring at our 2022 annual meeting of shareholders;
" FOR " the approval of the Five Point Holdings, LLC Amended and Restated 2016 Incentive Award Plan; and
" FOR " the ratification of the selection of Deloitte & Touche LLP as our independent registered public accountants for the year ending December 31, 2019.
The proxy gives each of Emile Haddad and Michael Alvarado discretionary authority to vote your shares in accordance with his best judgment with respect to all additional matters that might come before the Annual Meeting and any continuation, postponement or adjournment of the Annual Meeting. If you hold your shares in street name and do not give direction to your broker on how to vote your shares, your broker does not have authority to vote on the election of the directors or the amendment and restatement of the Five Point Holdings, LLC 2016 Incentive Award Plan. Your broker does have discretion to vote on the ratification of the selection of the independent auditors.
Revocation of Proxy
If you are a shareholder of record, you may revoke your proxy at any time before your proxy is voted at the Annual Meeting by taking any of the following actions:
delivering to our secretary a signed written notice of revocation, bearing a date later than the date of the proxy, stating that the proxy is revoked;
signing and delivering a new paper proxy, relating to the same shares and bearing a later date than the original proxy;
authorizing another proxy by telephone or over the Internet (your most recent telephone or Internet authorization will be used); or
attending the Annual Meeting and voting in person.
Attendance at the Annual Meeting will not, by itself, revoke a proxy. Written notices of revocation and other communications with respect to the revocation of the Company proxies should be addressed to the mailing address of our principal executive offices and must be received prior to the Annual Meeting:
Five Point Holdings, LLC
15131 Alton Parkway, 4th Floor
Irvine, California 92618
Attn: Secretary

2



If your shares are held in "street name," you may change your vote by submitting new voting instructions to your broker, bank or other nominee. You must contact your broker, bank or other nominee to find out how to do so. See "voting in person" below regarding how to vote in person if your shares are held in street name.
Attending the Annual Meeting
Shareholders who wish to attend the Annual Meeting will be required to present: (1) verification of ownership of our Common Shares, such as a bank or brokerage firm account statement showing your ownership of the shares as of the record date or a letter from the broker or other nominee confirming your ownership; and (2) a valid government-issued picture identification, such as a driver’s license or passport. No cameras, recording equipment, electronic devices, large bags, briefcases or packages will be permitted in the Annual Meeting.
Voting in Person
If you plan to attend the Annual Meeting and wish to vote in person, you will be given a ballot at the Annual Meeting. Please note, however, that if your shares are held in "street name," which means your shares are held of record by a broker, bank or other nominee, and you wish to vote at the Annual Meeting, you must bring to the Annual Meeting a legal proxy from the record holder of the shares, which is the broker or other nominee, authorizing you to vote at the Annual Meeting.
Quorum and Votes Required
All votes will be tabulated by the inspector of elections appointed for the Annual Meeting, who will separately tabulate affirmative and negative votes and abstentions. The inspector of elections will also determine whether a quorum is present. A majority in voting power of the outstanding shares entitled to vote, present in person, or represented by proxy, will constitute a quorum at the Annual Meeting. Shares held by persons attending the Annual Meeting but not voting, shares represented by proxies that reflect abstentions as to a particular proposal, and broker "non-votes" will be counted as present for purposes of determining a quorum.
Brokers or other nominees who hold shares in "street name" for a beneficial owner of those shares typically have the authority to vote in their discretion on "routine" proposals when they have not received instructions from beneficial owners. However, without specific instruction from the beneficial owner, brokers or other nominees are not allowed to exercise their voting discretion with respect to the election of directors or for the approval of matters which are considered to be "non-routine." These non-voted shares are referred to as "broker non-votes." Only Proposal 3 (ratifying the appointment of our independent registered public accounting firm) is considered a routine matter. Proposal 1 (election of directors) and Proposal 2 (approving the amendment and restatement of the Five Point Holdings, LLC 2016 Incentive Award Plan) are considered non-routine matters, and without your instruction, your broker or other nominee cannot vote your shares. Broker non-votes are not considered as having voted for purposes of determining the outcome of a vote. Abstentions may be specified for all proposals except the election of directors, but your vote may be "withheld" in the election of directors. Shareholder approval of each proposal requires the following votes:
Proposal 1 - Election of Directors . Directors will be elected by a plurality of the votes cast. Thus, the three nominees receiving the highest number of shares voted "FOR" their election will be elected. Abstentions will not be counted in determining which nominees received a plurality of votes cast since abstentions do not represent votes cast for or against a candidate. Brokers do not have discretionary authority to vote on the election of directors. Broker non-votes will not affect the outcome of the election of directors because brokers are not able to cast their votes on this proposal.
Proposal 2 - Approval of the Five Point Holdings, LLC Amended and Restated 2016 Incentive Award Plan . The affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast by shareholders entitled to vote is required for the approval of the Five Point Holdings, LLC Amended and Restated 2016 Incentive Award Plan (meaning that of the shares represented at the meeting and entitled to vote, a majority of them must be voted "FOR" the proposal for it to be approved). Abstentions will have the same effect as voting against this proposal because they represent shares present in person or by proxy and entitled to vote. Brokers do not have discretionary authority to vote on this proposal. Broker non-votes will not affect the outcome of this election because brokers are not entitled to cast their votes on this proposal.
Proposal 3 - Ratification of the Selection of Our Independent Auditors . The affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast by shareholders entitled to vote is required for the ratification of the selection of Deloitte & Touche LLP as our independent auditors (meaning that of the shares represented at the meeting and entitled to vote, a majority of them must be voted "FOR" the proposal for it to be approved). Abstentions will have the same effect as voting against this proposal because they represent shares present in person or by proxy and entitled to vote. Brokers have discretionary authority to vote on the ratification of our independent auditors, thus broker

3



non-votes are generally not expected to result from the vote on this proposal but shall be counted for purposes of determining a quorum.
Solicitation of Proxies
Our Board is soliciting proxies for the Annual Meeting from our shareholders. We will bear the entire cost of soliciting proxies from our shareholders. In addition to the solicitation by mail, the Company, our officers, employees and agents may solicit proxies by telephone, by facsimile, by email or in person. We do not expect to use a proxy solicitor to assist in the solicitation of proxies for the Annual Meeting. Copies of solicitation materials will be furnished to banks, brokers, fiduciaries and custodians holding shares in their names that are beneficially owned by our shareholders, so they may forward the solicitation materials to the beneficial owners and secure those beneficial owners’ voting instructions. We may reimburse persons representing beneficial owners for their costs of forwarding the solicitation materials to the beneficial owners.
Shareholder List
A list of shareholders entitled to vote at the Annual Meeting will be available for examination by any shareholder for any purpose germane to the Annual Meeting during ordinary business hours at our corporate offices located at 15131 Alton Parkway, 4th Floor, Irvine, California 92618 for the ten days prior to the Annual Meeting and also at the Annual Meeting.
Explanatory Note
The Company closed its initial public offering (" IPO ") on May 15, 2017. We are an "emerging growth company" as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, and we are eligible to take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to companies that are not "emerging growth companies." These provisions include, among other matters:
an exemption from the auditor attestation requirement in the assessment of our internal control over financial reporting;
reduced disclosure about our executive compensation arrangements and an exemption from the requirement to include a Compensation Discussion and Analysis section in this proxy statement; and
an exemption from the requirement to seek non-binding advisory votes on executive compensation.
We will remain an "emerging growth company" until the earlier of (1) the last day of the fiscal year (a) following the fifth anniversary of the completion of our IPO (December 31, 2022), (b) in which we have total annual gross revenue of at least $1.07 billion or (c) in which we are deemed to be a large accelerated filer, which means, among other things, that the market value of our Class A common shares held by non-affiliates is at least $700 million as of the last business day of our most recently completed second fiscal quarter, and (2) the date on which we have issued more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt during the prior three-year period.
Forward-Looking Statements
This proxy statement contains "forward-looking statements" (as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995). These statements are based on our current expectations and involve risks and uncertainties, which may cause results to differ materially from those set forth in the statements. The forward-looking statements may include statements regarding actions to be taken by us. We undertake no obligation to publicly update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Forward-looking statements should be evaluated together with the many uncertainties that affect our business, particularly those mentioned in the risk factors in Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 and in our subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and our Current Reports on Form 8-K.

PROPOSAL 1

ELECTION OF DIRECTORS
Board Structure and Nominees
Pursuant to the terms of our Second Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement (our " Operating Agreement "), the Board shall consist of between three (3) and thirteen (13) directors with the exact number of directors to be fixed exclusively by the Board. The Board last fixed the authorized number of directors at thirteen (13). We currently have eleven (11) directors and two (2) vacant Board seats. The vacant Board seats resulted from the resignation of two Class I directors immediately prior to our IPO in May 2017. The directors are divided into three classes: Class I, which currently consists of two directors and two vacancies; Class II, which currently consists of five directors; and Class III, which currently consists of four directors. Each director serves a term of three years. At each annual meeting of shareholders, the term of one class expires. The term of the Class I directors expires at this Annual Meeting.
The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and the Board have determined to rebalance the number of directors in each Board class in order to make the class sizes of approximately equal size in accordance with the requirements of our Operating Agreement and the New York Stock Exchange (" NYSE "). As current Class I directors, the Board seats of Messrs. Beckwitt and Browning will expire at the Annual Meeting. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and the Board have determined to nominate Mr. Rossi (currently a Class II director) to be elected to fill one of the current Class I vacancies. In connection with the Annual Meeting, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and the Board intends to (i) maintain the size of the Board at thirteen (13) directors, (ii) reclassify Mr. Rossi from a Class II to a Class I director, which is contingent upon Mr. Rossi's election as a Class I director, and (iii) maintain one vacant Class I seat and one vacant Class II seat, such that following the annual meeting there will be three Class I directors with one vacant seat, four Class II directors with one vacant seat, and four Class III directors.
If elected, Messrs. Beckwitt, Browning and Rossi would each serve a three-year term expiring at the close of our 2022 Annual Meeting or until their successors are duly elected. Biographical information on each of the nominees is furnished below under "Director Biographical Information."
Set forth below is information as of April 9, 2019 regarding each of our directors, including each director nominee.

(" Castlelake ")).

These arrangements with respect to election of directors terminated upon completion of the IPO.

PROPOSAL 2

APPROVAL OF THE FIVE POINT HOLDINGS, LLC
AMENDED AND RESTATED 2016 INCENTIVE AWARD PLAN
Background

We are asking our shareholders to approve the Five Point Holdings, LLC Amended and Restated 2016 Incentive Award Plan (the " Amended Plan "), which amends and restates the Five Point Holdings, LLC 2016 Incentive Award Plan (the " Prior Plan ") in its entirety. The Prior Plan was originally adopted by our Board on May 2, 2016. On April 12, 2019, our Board unanimously approved the Amended Plan, which will become effective upon shareholder approval. The Amended Plan makes the following material changes to the Prior Plan:
increases the number of shares authorized for issuance by 3,209,326 shares (the " Share Reserve Increase ");
imposes a minimum twelve-month vesting period upon grant for all awards, provided that up to 5% of the shares available for issuance from and after the effective date of the Amended Plan may be granted without respect to such minimum vesting requirement;
provides that dividends and dividend equivalents may not be paid on awards subject to vesting conditions unless and until such conditions are met;
clarifies that shares underlying any issued share appreciation rights that are retained by the Company to account for the exercise price of such share appreciation rights are counted against the maximum number of shares available for issuance under the Amended Plan;
extends the term from May 2, 2026 through June 6, 2029; and
removes certain provisions that were required for awards to qualify for the performance-based compensation exception to the deduction limitation under Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code (the " Code ") prior to its repeal under the legislation commonly known as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017.

If approved by our shareholders, the Amended Plan will become effective on the date of the Annual Meeting. A copy of the Amended Plan is included as Appendix A to this proxy statement.

Shareholder Approval Requirement

Approval of the Amended Plan will constitute approval pursuant to the NYSE shareholder approval requirements applicable to equity compensation plans and approval pursuant to the shareholder approval requirements of Section 422 of the Code relating to ISOs. If our shareholders do not approve the Amended Plan pursuant to this Proposal 2, then the proposed additional shares under the Share Reserve Increase will not become available for issuance and the Prior Plan will remain in effect without any of the changes contained in the Amended Plan.

Shares Available for Issuance

Under the Prior Plan, a total of 8,500,822 shares were authorized for issuance. As of April 9, 2019, (i) 3,247,109 shares have been issued and have vested and are no longer subject to forfeiture, (ii) 3,458,543 shares have been issued but are unvested and remain subject to forfeiture (and would thereafter be available for future issuance), and (iii) 1,795,170 shares remain available for issuance. If the Amended Plan is approved, the reserved shares would increase by 3,209,326 shares compared to the Prior Plan, which would increase the aggregate award limit under the Amended Plan from 8,500,822 shares to 11,710,148 shares. The incremental 3,209,326 shares, if approved, would, together with the 1,795,170 shares that are available for immediate issuance under the Prior Plan, provide for 5,004,496 shares being available for issuance immediately following approval of the Amended Plan. By increasing the share reserve, we will be able to continue to grant equity awards to help create long-term participation in the Company and, thereby, attract, retain, motivate and reward our employees, directors and consultants. The Board believes that the effective use of share-based long-term incentive compensation is vital to the Company's future performance and aligns the incentives of our employees, directors and consultants with the interests of the Company's shareholders. If our shareholders approve this Proposal 2, we anticipate we will have sufficient shares to provide us with enough shares for awards for approximately the next two years, assuming we continue to grant awards consistent with our current practices. Usage under the Amended Plan will also be dependent upon the price of our shares, hiring activity during the next few years and forfeitures of outstanding awards under the Prior Plan. We cannot predict our future equity grant practices,

10



the future price of our shares or future hiring activity with any degree of certainty at this time, and the share reserve under the Amended Plan could last for a shorter or longer period of time.

The table below summarizes the number of outstanding awards and the number of shares available under the Prior Plan as of April 9, 2019. The closing price of our Class A common shares on April 9, 2019 was $7.67.

Background for the Determination of the Share Reserve Under the Amended Plan

In its determination to approve the Amended Plan, the Board was primarily motivated by a desire to ensure the Company has an available pool of shares from which to grant long-term equity incentive awards, which we believe is a primary incentive and retention mechanism for our employees, directors and consultants. In determining the number of shares by which to increase the reserve under the Amended Plan, the Board reviewed the Compensation Committee’s recommendations, which were based on an analysis prepared by and recommendations of The POE Group, Inc. (" POE "), the Compensation Committee’s independent compensation consultant.

In determining whether to approve the Amended Plan, including the Share Reserve Increase, our Compensation Committee and Board of Directors considered the following:

The number of shares to be reserved for issuance under the Amended Plan represents an increase of 3,209,326 shares from the aggregate number of shares reserved for issuance under the Prior Plan, resulting in a total of 5,004,496 shares being immediately available for issuance following approval of the Amended Plan.
The remaining reserve for future awards under the Prior Plan as of April 9, 2019 was 1,795,170 shares or 1.2% of our outstanding Class A common shares and Class B common shares. At the end of fiscal years 2017 and 2018, our total overhang rate attributable to the number of shares subject to equity compensation awards outstanding at the end of the fiscal year (calculated by dividing (1) the sum of the number of shares subject to equity awards that were unvested and outstanding at the end of the fiscal year plus shares remaining available for issuance for future awards at the end of the fiscal year by (2) the number of Class A common shares and Class B common shares outstanding at the end of the calendar year), was approximately 4.7% and 4.1%, respectively, and as of April 9, 2019 (calculated at April 9, 2019), it was approximately 3.5%.

11



In calendar years 2017 and 2018, equity awards representing a total of approximately 453,172 shares and 1,724,268 shares, respectively, were granted under the Prior Plan, all of which were granted as full value restricted share awards (and none were granted as options), for an annual equity burn rate of 0.3% and 1.2%, respectively. This level of equity awards represents a two-year average burn rate of 0.8%. Annual equity burn rate is calculated by dividing the number of Class A common shares subject to equity awards granted during the year by the number of Class A common shares and Class B common shares outstanding at the end of the year.
For 2019 through April 9, 2019, we granted equity awards under the Prior Plan covering a total of 2,286,819 shares, all of which were granted as full value restricted share awards or restricted share units and include 1,164,467 performance awards granted at the "maximum" performance level. We anticipate that this will be the majority of shares awarded for 2019. Our estimated annual burn rate for 2019 is 1.5%.
Other factors that shareholders may consider in evaluating the proposal to approve the Amended Plan include:
If we exhaust current share reserves under the Prior Plan without approval of the Amended Plan, we would lose an important compensation tool aligned with shareholder interests to attract, motivate and retain highly qualified talent.
If the Amended Plan is approved, we estimate that the proposed aggregate share reserve under the Amended Plan would be sufficient for approximately two years of awards, assuming we continue to grant awards consistent with our current practices and noting that future circumstances may require us to change our equity grant practices.
In evaluating the proposal to approve the Amended Plan, shareholders may also consider the provisions in the Amended Plan, which we believe are consistent with best practices in equity compensation and further protect our shareholders’ interests. Such provisions include:

Shares tendered by participants to satisfy the exercise price or tax withholding obligation with respect to any award will not be "added back" to the shares available for issuance under the Amended Plan. Shares subject to a share appreciation right that are not issued in connection with the share settlement of the share appreciation right on exercise, and shares purchased on the open market with the cash proceeds from the exercise of options are also not added back to the shares available for issuance under the Amended Plan.
Awards issued under the Amended Plan may not be repriced without shareholder approval.
Dividends and dividend equivalents may not be paid on awards subject to vesting conditions unless and until such conditions are met.
With certain exceptions, awards or portions of an award granted under the Amended Plan may not vest earlier than the first anniversary of the award's grant date.
The Amended Plan is administered by our Compensation Committee, which is composed entirely of independent directors.

In light of the factors described above, and the fact that the ability to continue to grant equity compensation is vital to our ability to continue to attract and retain employees in the competitive labor markets in which we compete, the Board has determined that the size of the share reserve under the Amended Plan is reasonable and appropriate at this time.

Description of the Amended Plan

The following sets forth a description of the material features and terms of the Amended Plan. The following summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Amended Plan, which is attached hereto as Appendix A.

Plan Administration . The Compensation Committee of our Board is the administrator of the Amended Plan. The Compensation Committee is composed solely of non-employee directors, as defined under Rule 16b-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the " Exchange Act "), and "independent directors" within the meaning of the rules of the NYSE.

The Compensation Committee has the authority to, among other things:

construe and interpret the Amended Plan;
make rules and regulations relating to the administration of the Amended Plan;
designate eligible persons to receive awards;
establish the terms and conditions of awards; and

12



determine whether the awards or any portion thereof will contain time-based restrictions or performance-based restrictions, and, with respect to performance-based awards, the criteria for achievement of performance goals, as set forth in more detail below.

The Compensation Committee may delegate its authority to administer the Amended Plan from time to time, subject to certain limitations. Any references to Compensation Committee in this summary of the Amended Plan include any such delegatee.

Eligibility . The Compensation Committee will designate those employees, consultants and non-employee directors who are to receive awards under the Amended Plan. As of March 31, 2019, there were 10 non-employee directors and approximately 175 employees and five consultants who would be eligible to receive awards under the Amended Plan.

Shares Authorized . Subject to adjustment in the event of a merger, recapitalization, share split, reorganization or similar transaction, the maximum aggregate number of Class A common shares available for issuance under the Amended Plan is 11,710,148, all of which may be made subject to incentive share options, and the maximum aggregate number of incentive units of Five Point Operating Company, LP (the " Operating Company ") (referred to as " LTIP Units ") available for issuance under the Amended Plan is 11,710,148, less the number of Class A common shares made subject to awards (such that the maximum number of Class A common shares and LTIP Units available under the Amended Plan is 11,710,148). As of the date hereof, awards have been made under the Amended Plan with respect to 6,705,652 of our Class A common shares and no LTIP Units.

Our Class A common shares or LTIP Units that are subject to or underlie awards which expire or for any reason are canceled, terminated, forfeited, fail to vest or for any other reason are not paid or delivered under the Amended Plan will again be available for issuance in connection with future awards granted under the Amended Plan. Our Class A common shares or LTIP Units surrendered or withheld as payment of either the exercise price of an award or withholding taxes in respect of such an award will be counted against the Amended Plan limits and will not again be available for issuance in connection with future awards.

Individual Limits . In respect of each participant who is not a non-employee director, the aggregate number of Class A common shares subject to options and share appreciation rights awarded during any calendar year may not exceed 631,912 Class A common shares, and the aggregate number of Class A common shares and LTIP Units made subject to awards other than options and share appreciation rights during any calendar year may not exceed 631,912 shares and LTIP Units in the aggregate. Each of these limits is subject to adjustment in the event of a merger, recapitalization, share split, reorganization or similar transaction.

Types of Awards . The Amended Plan provides for the grant of share options, restricted shares, RSUs, performance awards (which include, but are not limited to, cash bonuses), distribution equivalent awards, deferred share awards, share payment awards, share appreciation rights, other incentive awards (which include, but are not limited to, LTIP Unit awards) and performance share awards.

Options.  Options to purchase Class A common shares may be granted alone or in tandem with share appreciation rights. A share option may be granted in the form of a non-qualified share option or an incentive share option (i.e., an incentive stock option within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code). All shares available under the Amended Plan may be made subject to incentive share options, but no incentive share options will be granted to any person who is not an employee of the Company, the Operating Company or a majority owned subsidiary corporation. The price at which a share may be purchased under an option (the "exercise price") will be determined by the Compensation Committee, but may not be less than the fair market value of our Class A common shares on the date the option is granted. The Compensation Committee may establish the term of each option, but no option may be exercisable after 10 years from the grant date. The amount of incentive share options that become exercisable for the first time in a particular year cannot exceed a value of $100,000 per participant, determined using the fair market value of the shares on the date of grant. No options have been granted under the Prior Plan through the date of this Proxy Statement.

An optionee generally will not recognize taxable income upon the grant of a nonqualified share option. Rather, at the time of exercise of such option, the optionee will recognize ordinary income for income tax purposes in an amount equal to the excess of the fair market value of the shares purchased over the exercise price. The employer will generally be entitled to a tax deduction at such time and in the same amount that the optionee recognizes ordinary income. An optionee will not recognize any ordinary income upon the grant or timely exercise of an incentive share option. Exercise of an incentive share option generally will be timely if made during its term and if the optionee remains an employee at all times during the period beginning on the date of grant and ending on the date three months before the date of exercise. The tax consequences of an untimely exercise of an incentive share option will be determined in accordance with the rules applicable to nonqualified share

13



options. If shares acquired pursuant to the exercise of an incentive share option are disposed of by the optionee prior to the expiration of two years from the date of grant or within one year from the date of exercise (a so-called "disqualifying disposition"), any gain realized by the optionee generally will be taxable at the time of such disqualifying disposition as follows: (i) at ordinary income rates to the extent of the difference between the exercise price and the lesser of the fair market value of the shares on the date the option is exercised or the amount realized on such disqualifying disposition; and (ii) if the stock is a capital asset of the optionee, as short-term or long-term capital gain (depending upon the length of time such shares were held by the optionee) to the extent of any excess of the amount realized on such disqualifying disposition over the sum of the exercise price and any ordinary income recognized by the optionee. In such case, the employer may claim an income tax deduction at the time of such disqualifying disposition for the amount taxable to the optionee as ordinary income.

SAR s. Share appreciation rights (" SARs ") may be granted either alone or in tandem with share options. The exercise price of a SAR must be equal to or greater than the fair market value of our Class A common shares on the date of grant. The Compensation Committee may establish the term of each SAR, but no SAR will be exercisable after 10 years from the grant date.

Restricted Shares/RSUs . Restricted shares and RSUs may be issued to eligible participants, as determined by the Compensation Committee. The restrictions on such awards are determined by the Compensation Committee, and may include time based, performance-based and service-based restrictions. RSUs may be settled in cash, Class A common shares or a combination thereof. Holders of restricted shares will have voting rights during the restriction period. Holders of restricted shares and restricted share units will not receive distributions or distribution equivalents unless and until the underlying restricted shares or RSUs have vested.

Performance Awards . Performance awards may be issued to any eligible individual, as deemed by the Compensation Committee. The value of performance awards may be linked to the performance criteria identified below, or to other specific criteria determined by the Compensation Committee. Performance awards may be paid in cash, shares or a combination of both, as determined by the Compensation Committee. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, performance awards may be granted in the form of a cash bonus payable upon the attainment of objective performance goals or such other criteria as are established by the Compensation Committee.

Distribution Equivalent Awards . Distribution equivalent awards may be granted either alone or in tandem with other awards, as determined by the Compensation Committee. Distribution equivalent awards are based on the distributions that are declared on our Class A common shares, to be credited as of the distribution payment dates during the period between the date that the distribution equivalent awards are granted and such dates that the distribution equivalent awards terminate or expire. If distribution equivalents are granted with respect to shares covered by another award, the distribution equivalent may be paid out at the time and to the extent that vesting conditions of the award shares are satisfied. Distribution equivalent awards can be converted to cash or Class A common shares by a formula determined by the Compensation Committee. Distribution equivalents are not payable with respect to share options or share appreciation rights unless otherwise determined by the Compensation Committee.

Share Payment Awards . Share payments may be issued to eligible participants, as determined by the Compensation Committee. The number of shares of any share payment may be based upon performance criteria or any other specific criteria. Share payment awards may be made in lieu of base salary, bonus, fees or other cash compensation otherwise payable to such eligible individual.

Deferred Share Awards . Deferred share awards may be issued to eligible participants, as determined by the Compensation Committee. The number of shares of deferred shares will be determined by the Compensation Committee and may be based on performance criteria or other specific criteria. Shares underlying a deferred share award which is subject to a vesting schedule or other conditions or criteria set up by the Compensation Committee will not be issued until such vesting requirements or other conditions or criteria, as applicable, have been satisfied. Unless otherwise provided by the Compensation Committee, a holder of a deferred share award will have no rights as a shareholder until the award has vested and the shares have been issued.

Performance Share Awards . Performance share awards may be granted to any eligible individual who is selected by the Compensation Committee. Vesting of performance share awards may be linked to any one or more performance criteria or time-vesting or other criteria, as determined by the Compensation Committee.

Other Incentive Awards . Other incentive awards may be issued to eligible participants, as determined by the Compensation Committee. Such other incentive awards may cover shares or the right to purchase shares or have a value derived from the value of, or an exercise or conversion privilege at a price related to, or otherwise payable in or based on shares, shareholder

14



value, or shareholder return. Other incentive awards may be linked to any one or more of the performance criteria or other specific performance criteria determined appropriate by the Compensation Committee and may be paid in cash or shares. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, LTIP Units may be granted in such amount and subject to such terms and conditions as may be determined by the Compensation Committee; provided, however, that LTIP Units may only be issued to an eligible individual for the performance of services to or for the benefit of the Operating Company (1) in the eligible individual’s capacity as a member of the Operating Company, (2) in anticipation of the eligible individual becoming a member of the Operating Company or (3) as otherwise determined by the Compensation Committee, provided that the LTIP Units are intended to constitute "profits interests" within the meaning of the Internal Revenue Code, as well as applicable revenue procedures. The Compensation Committee will specify the conditions and dates upon which the LTIP Units will vest and become nonforfeitable. LTIP Units will be subject to the terms and conditions of the agreement governing the Operating Company and such other restrictions, including restrictions on transferability, as the Compensation Committee may impose. These restrictions may lapse separately or in combination at such times, pursuant to such circumstances, in such installments, or otherwise, as the Compensation Committee determines at the time of the grant of the award or thereafter.

Performance-Based Awards . Without limiting the description of Performance Awards above, the Compensation Committee can issue performance-based awards under the Amended Plan.

The performance goals may be based upon performance criteria established by our Compensation Committee, which may include one or more of the following performance criteria: (1) net earnings (either before or after one or more of the following: (A) interest, (B) taxes, (C) depreciation, (D) amortization and (E) non-cash equity-based compensation expense); (2) gross or net sales or revenue; (3) net income (either before or after taxes); (4) adjusted net income; (5) operating earnings or profit; (6) cash flow (including, but not limited to, operating cash flow and free cash flow); (7) return on assets; (8) return on capital; (9) return on shareholders’ equity; (10) total shareholder return; (11) return on sales; (12) gross or net profit or operating margin; (13) costs; (14) funds from operations; (15) expenses; (16) working capital; (17) earnings per share; (18) adjusted earnings per share; (19) price per share; (20) implementation or completion of critical projects; (21) market share; (22) economic value; (23) debt levels or reduction; (24) sales-related goals; (25) comparisons with other stock market indices; (26) operating efficiency; (27) customer satisfaction and/or growth; (28) employee satisfaction; (29) financing and other capital raising transactions; (30) recruiting and maintaining personnel; (31) year-end cash; (32) inventory; (33) average transaction size; (34) employee retention; and (35) capital expenditures, any of which may be measured either in absolute terms for the Company or any operating unit of the Company or as compared to any incremental increase or decrease or as compared to results of a peer group or to market performance indicators or indices.

Performance criteria may be measured either in absolute terms for our company or any operating unit of our company or as compared to results of a peer group or to market performance indicators. Further, the Compensation Committee may provide objectively determinable adjustments be made to one or more of the performance goals. Such adjustments may include: (1) items related to a change in accounting principle; (2) items relating to financing activities; (3) expenses for restructuring or productivity initiatives; (4) other non-operating items; (5) items related to acquisitions; (6) items attributable to the business operations of any entity acquired by our company during the performance period; (7) items related to the disposal or sale of a business or segment of a business; (8) items related to discontinued operations that do not qualify as a segment of a business under applicable accounting standards; (9) items attributable to any share distribution, share split, combination or exchange of shares occurring during the performance period; (10) any other items of significant income or expense which are determined to be appropriate adjustments; (11) items relating to unusual or extraordinary corporate transactions, events or developments; (12) items related to amortization of acquired intangible assets; (13) items that are outside the scope of our company’s core, on-going business activities; (14) items relating to changes in tax laws; (15) items relating to asset impairment charges; (16) items relating to gains or losses for litigation, arbitration and contractual settlements; or (17) items relating to any other unusual or nonrecurring events or changes in applicable laws, accounting principles or business conditions.

The Compensation Committee may designate additional performance criteria on which performance goals may be based, and may adjust, modify or amend the aforementioned performance criteria.

Change in Control . In the event of a change in control of the Company, unless otherwise provided in an award agreement, if an award is not assumed by the acquirer or, where an award is assumed, the participant’s employment or service is terminated by us without cause or by the participant for good reason on or after the effective date of the change in control but prior to twenty-four months following the change in control, then: (i) any unvested or unexercisable portion of any award carrying a right to exercise shall become fully vested and exercisable and (ii) the restrictions, deferral limitations, payment conditions and forfeiture conditions applicable to an award shall lapse and such awards shall be deemed fully vested and any performance conditions imposed with respect to such awards shall be deemed to be achieved at the target level of performance (or, where there has been a qualifying termination of employment following award assumption, at the actual level of performance if greater).

15




Amendment and Termination . Our Board may at any time terminate, suspend or discontinue the Amended Plan. Our Board may amend the Amended Plan at any time, provided that any increase in the number of shares available for issuance under the plan must be approved by our shareholders. In addition, our Board may not, without shareholder approval, amend any outstanding award to increase or reduce the price per share or to cancel and replace an award with cash or another award, including another option or share appreciation right having a price per share that is less than, greater than or equal to the price per share of the original award. Unless sooner terminated, the Amended Plan will expire ten years after its effective date (June 6, 2029), though awards granted before any termination will continue in effect in accordance with their terms.

Registration with the Securities and Exchange Commission

If the Amended Plan is approved by shareholders, we expect to file a Registration Statement on Form S-8 with the Securities and Exchange Commission to register the additional number of common shares that will be issuable under the Amended Plan.

New Plan Benefits

The number of awards that our named executive officers, directors, other executive officers and other employees may receive under the Amended Plan in the future will be determined in the discretion of the Board or Compensation Committee, and neither the Board nor the Compensation Committee has made any determination to make future grants to any persons under the Amended Plan as of the date of this proxy statement. Therefore, it is not possible to determine the future benefits that will be received by these participants under the Amended Plan.

Plan Benefits

The table below sets forth summary information concerning the number of Class A common shares subject to equity awards granted to certain persons under the Prior Plan from its inception through April 9, 2019. Certain awards set forth in this table for the named executive officers were granted in 2019 for service in 2018 and therefore also are included in the Summary Compensation Table set forth in this proxy statement and are not additional awards. Certain awards set forth in this table for the non-employee directors were granted in 2019 and therefore are not included in the Non-Employee Director Compensation Table set forth in this proxy statement.

CORPORATE GOVERNANCE
Corporate Governance Guidelines
Our Board has adopted corporate governance guidelines that serve as a flexible framework within which our Board and its committees operate. These guidelines cover a number of areas including board membership criteria and director qualifications, director responsibilities, board agenda, roles of the chairman of the board and chief executive officer, meetings of independent directors, committee responsibilities and assignments, board member access to management and independent advisors, director communications with third parties, director compensation, director orientation and continuing education, evaluation of senior management and management succession planning. Our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee reviews our corporate governance guidelines at least once a year and, if necessary, recommends changes to our Board. Additionally, our Board has adopted independence standards as part of our corporate governance guidelines. A copy of our corporate governance guidelines is available on our website at www.fivepoint.com. Our website and the information contained therein or connected thereto is not incorporated, or deemed to be incorporated, into this report.
Board Composition
Our business affairs are managed under the direction of our Board. Our Operating Agreement provides that our Board shall consist of between three (3) and thirteen (13) directors with the exact number of directors to be fixed exclusively by the Board. The Board last fixed the authorized number of directors at thirteen (13). We currently have eleven (11) directors and two (2) vacant Board seats. The vacant Board seats resulted from the resignation of two Class I directors immediately prior to our IPO in May 2017. The directors are divided into three classes: Class I, which currently consists of two directors and two vacancies; Class II, which currently consists of five directors; and Class III, which currently consists of four directors. Each director serves a term of three years. At each annual meeting of shareholders, the term of one class expires. The term of the Class I directors expires at this Annual Meeting. The terms of the Class II and Class III directors expire in 2020 and 2021, respectively. Any additional directorships resulting from an increase in the number of directors will be distributed among the three classes so that, as nearly as possible, each class will consist of one-third of our directors. Election of directors is decided by a plurality of the votes cast.
The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and the Board have determined to rebalance the number of directors in each Board class in order to make the class sizes of approximately equal size in accordance with the requirements of our Operating Agreement and the NYSE. As current Class I directors, the board seats of Messrs. Beckwitt and Browning will expire at the Annual Meeting. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and the Board have determined to nominate Mr. Rossi (currently a Class II director) to be elected to fill one of the current Class I vacancies. In connection with the Annual Meeting, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and the Board intend to (i) maintain the size of the Board at thirteen (13) directors, (ii) reclassify Mr. Rossi from a Class II to a Class I director, which is contingent upon Mr. Rossi's election as a Class I director, and (iii) maintain one vacant Class I seat and one vacant Class II seat, such that following the annual meeting there will be three Class I directors with one vacant seat, four Class II directors with one vacant seat, and four Class III directors.
Arrangements Concerning Selection of Directors
Our current directors were selected in accordance with the terms of a voting and standstill agreement that we entered into with certain of our pre-IPO shareholders (including Mr. Haddad, Lennar and entities affiliated with Castlelake). The parties to this agreement agreed to take all actions reasonably necessary to cause our Board to consist of the following thirteen (13) directors: (i) one director designated by Mr. Haddad (Mr. Haddad); (ii) one director designated by the entities affiliated with Castlelake (Mr. Carruthers); (iii) three directors designated by Lennar (Messrs. Miller, Beckwitt and Jaffe); (iv) three directors designated by the group of other pre-IPO shareholders (Mr. Winer, Daniel Pine and Joshua Kirkham); and (v) five directors designated by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee of our Board (Ms. Brown and Messrs. Hunt, Browning, Foster and Rossi). On April 12, 2017, Messrs. Pine and Kirkham resigned as directors, effective as of the day prior to the date on which our registration statement for the IPO became effective. These arrangements with respect to election of directors terminated upon completion of the IPO.
Director Independence
Our Class A common shares are listed on the NYSE. Under the rules of the NYSE, independent directors must comprise a majority of a listed company’s board of directors. In addition, the rules of the NYSE require that, subject to specified exceptions, each member of a listed company’s audit, compensation and nominating and corporate governance committees must be independent. Under the rules of the NYSE, a director is independent only if, among other things, our Board makes an affirmative determination that the director has no material relationship with us. Our Board has determined that Kathleen Brown, William Browning, Evan Carruthers, Jonathan Foster, Michael Rossi and Michael Winer are "independent," as that

17



term is defined in the NYSE rules, for purposes of serving on our Board. Our independent directors meet regularly in executive sessions without the presence of our Chairman and our other officers. In addition to our Audit Committee and Conflicts Committee, both the Compensation Committee and Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee are comprised exclusively of members of the Board who meet the independence requirements set forth by the Securities and Exchange Commission (" SEC ") and the NYSE.
Board Committees
Our Board has the authority to appoint committees and, subject to certain exceptions, to delegate to such committees the power and authority of our Board to manage our business affairs and administrative functions. Our Board has established an Audit Committee, a Compensation Committee, a Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and a Conflicts Committee. Each of these committees is comprised exclusively of independent directors. The principal functions and composition of these committees are briefly described below. Members serve on these committees until their resignation or until otherwise determined by our Board. Additionally, our Board may from time to time establish certain other committees to facilitate the management of our Company. Copies of our audit, compensation and nominating and corporate governance committee charters are available on our website at www.fivepoint.com. Our website and the information contained therein or connected thereto is not incorporated, or deemed to be incorporated, into this report.
Audit Committee
The Audit Committee was established in accordance with Rule 10A-3 under the Exchange Act and the NYSE rules. The primary duties of the Audit Committee are to, among other things:
determine the appointment, compensation, retention and oversight of the work of our independent registered public accounting firm;
review and approve in advance all permitted non-audit engagements and relationships between us and our independent registered public accounting firm;
evaluate our independent registered public accounting firm’s qualifications, independence and performance;
obtain and review a report from our independent registered public accounting firm describing its internal quality-control procedures, any material issues raised by the most recent review and all relationships between us and our independent registered public accounting firm;
review and discuss with our independent registered public accounting firm their audit plan, including the timing and scope of audit activities;
review our consolidated financial statements;
review our critical accounting policies and practices;
review the adequacy and effectiveness of our accounting and internal control policies and procedures;
oversee the performance of our internal audit function;
review with our management all significant deficiencies and material weaknesses in the design and operation of our internal controls;
review with our management any fraud that involves management or other employees who have a significant role in our internal controls;
establish procedures for the receipt, retention and treatment of complaints regarding internal accounting controls or auditing matters and the confidential, anonymous submission by employees of concerns regarding questionable accounting or auditing matters;
prepare the reports required by the rules of the SEC to be included in our annual proxy statement;
discuss with our management and our independent registered public accounting firm the results of our annual audit and the review of our quarterly consolidated financial statements; and
oversee our compliance with legal, ethical and regulatory requirements.
The Audit Committee provides an avenue of communication among management, the independent registered public accounting firm and the Board. The Audit Committee has the power to investigate any matter brought to its attention within the scope of its duties. It also has the authority to retain counsel and advisors to fulfill its responsibilities and duties. The Audit Committee is comprised of individuals who meet the independence requirements set forth by the SEC and the NYSE, and it operates under a written Audit Committee charter. Each member of the Audit Committee is financially literate in accordance

18



with the NYSE requirements. The Audit Committee also has at least one member who meets the definition of an "audit committee financial expert" under SEC rules and regulations. The current members of the Audit Committee are Kathleen Brown, Michael Winer and William Browning, who is its chair. The Board has determined that William Browning meets the requirements of an audit committee financial expert under SEC rules.
Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee
The primary responsibilities of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee are to, among other things:
assist in identifying, recruiting and evaluating individuals qualified to become members of our Board, consistent with criteria approved by our Board and the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee;
recommend to our Board individuals qualified to serve as directors and on committees of our Board;
advise our Board with respect to board composition, procedures and committees;
recommend to our Board certain corporate governance matters and practices; and
conduct an annual self-evaluation for our Board.
The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is comprised of individuals who meet the independence requirements set forth by the SEC and the NYSE, and it operates under a written Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee charter. The current members of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee are Michael Winer, Evan Carruthers and Michael Rossi, who is its chair.
The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee considers possible candidates for nomination as directors suggested by management and by shareholders and others, if there are any. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee would evaluate the suitability of any potential candidates recommended by shareholders in the same manner as other candidates recommended to the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. Our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is responsible for reviewing with our Board, on an annual basis, the appropriate characteristics, skills and experience required for our Board as a whole and its individual members. In evaluating the suitability of individual candidates (both new candidates and current Board members), the members of our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, in recommending candidates for election, and our Board, in approving (and, in the case of vacancies, appointing) such candidates, will consider many factors, including each candidate's knowledge, experience, skills, expertise and diversity. While the Company values diversity and the Board considers diversity in its evaluation process, it has not adopted a specific policy regarding Board diversity. Our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee may delegate any or all of its responsibilities to a subcommittee of the Committee to the extent permitted by applicable law. 
Consideration of Shareholder-Recommended Director Nominees
Our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will consider director nominee recommendations submitted by our shareholders. Shareholders who wish to recommend a director nominee may submit their suggestions to our principal executive offices by sending a letter describing the nominee’s name and qualifications to Five Point Holdings, LLC, Attention Secretary, 15131 Alton Parkway, 4th Floor, Irvine, California 92618.  Recommendations submitted by shareholders will be considered in the same manner as recommendations received from other sources.
Our Operating Agreement also permits shareholders to nominate directors for election at an annual shareholder meeting.  See "Other Matters-Shareholder Proposals and Nominations."
Compensation Committee
The primary responsibilities of the Compensation Committee are to, among other things:
review executive compensation plans and their goals and objectives, and make recommendations to our Board, as appropriate;
evaluate the performance of our executive officers;
review and approve the compensation of our executive officers, including salary, bonus and equity incentive awards;
review and recommend to our Board the compensation of our directors;
review our overall compensation philosophy, compensation plans and benefits programs;
administer our share and equity incentive programs; and
prepare an annual Compensation Committee report for inclusion in our proxy statement (when we no longer qualify as an "emerging growth company").

19



The Compensation Committee is comprised of individuals who meet the independence requirements set forth by the SEC and the NYSE, and it operates under a written Compensation Committee charter. The members of the Compensation Committee are "non-employee directors" (within the meaning of Rule 16b-3 under the Exchange Act). The current members of the Compensation Committee are Michael Rossi, Evan Carruthers and Michael Winer, who is its chair.
Use of Compensation Consultant and Role of Management
Our Compensation Committee is committed to staying apprised of current issues and emerging trends and to ensuring that our executive compensation program remains aligned with best practice. To this end, our Compensation Committee has engaged the services of The POE Group, Inc. (" POE ") to assist it in evaluating executive compensation matters.
During 2018, POE only provided services to our Compensation Committee and such services were related primarily to executive or non-employee director compensation. POE also provided additional services related to the design of the Five Point Holdings, LLC Senior Management Severance and Change in Control Plan. The Compensation Committee solicited and approved such additional services by POE. While conducting assignments, POE interacts with our management when appropriate. The Company's Chief Executive Officer annually reviews each executive officer's performance with the Compensation Committee and makes recommendations to the Compensation Committee with respect to the appropriate base salary and incentive compensation program for each executive officer other than himself. The Compensation Committee takes these proposals into consideration, among other matters, when making compensation decisions. POE reports directly to our Compensation Committee with respect to executive and non-employee director compensation matters, and the Compensation Committee may replace it or hire additional consultants at any time. POE provided our Compensation Committee with compensation data related to executives at public real estate development companies and homebuilders, helped the Committee select appropriate performance measures and goals, and advised the Compensation Committee regarding evolving compensation best practices and trends. Specifically, POE provided information relating to competitiveness of pay levels, compensation plan design, pool availability, specific equity grant matters, market trends, risk assessment and management, and technical considerations concerning named executive officers, other executives and non-employee directors. During 2018, at the request of the Compensation Committee, a representative of POE attended certain Committee meetings.
Each year, our Compensation Committee reviews the independence of its compensation consultants and other advisors. In performing its analysis, our Compensation Committee considers the factors set forth in SEC rules and NYSE listing standards. After review and consultation with POE, our Compensation Committee determined that POE is independent and there is no conflict of interest resulting from retaining POE currently or during the year ended December 31, 2018.
For further information on our executive officers’ compensation, please see "Executive Compensation."
Conflicts Committee
The primary responsibilities of the Conflicts Committee are to, among other things:
establish and oversee policies and procedures governing conflicts of interest that may arise through related person transactions;
periodically review and update as appropriate these policies and procedures;
review and approve or ratify any related person transaction and other matters which may pose conflicts of interest, other than related person transactions that are pre-approved pursuant to our Related Person Transaction Approval and Disclosure Policy, described under “Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions—Review and Approval of Related Person Transactions;” and
advise, upon request, our Board or any other committee of our Board on actions or matters involving conflicts of interest.
The Conflicts Committee is comprised of individuals who meet the independence requirements set forth by the SEC and the NYSE, and it operates under a written Conflicts Committee charter. The current members of the Conflicts Committee are Jonathan Foster, William Browning and Kathleen Brown, who is its chair.
Board Leadership Structure
Our Operating Agreement permits the roles of Chairman and CEO to be filled by the same or different individuals. Our Board selects our Chairman and our CEO in the manner it considers in the best interests of the Company and our shareholders at any given point in time.
At this time, our Board believes that the Company and our shareholders are best served by having Mr. Haddad serve as our Chairman and CEO. The combined Chairman and CEO role provides centralized leadership that enhances communication between management and our Board and serves as an efficient structure for addressing material business matters in a timely manner. We believe that the combined Chairman and CEO role is counter-balanced by the six independent directors serving on

20



our Board, our independent committee chairs, the three directors that also serve as executive officers of our largest shareholder, and our lead independent director.
Our corporate governance guidelines provide for the appointment by the Board of a lead independent director. Mr. Rossi is currently our lead independent director and brings to this role considerable skill and experience, as described above in "Proposal 1 - Election of Directors." The role of our lead independent director is designed to further promote the independence of our Board and appropriate oversight of management and to facilitate free and open discussion and communication among the independent directors.
The responsibilities of our lead independent director are set forth in our corporate governance guidelines and include:
presiding over all meetings of the independent directors;
presiding over all Board meetings at which the Chairman is not present;
serving as liaison between the independent directors and management;
presiding over meetings of shareholders at the request of the Board;
conveying recommendations of the independent directors to the Board;
previewing information sent to the Board as necessary; and
approving meeting schedules to ensure that there is sufficient time for discussion of all agenda items.
The lead independent director also has the authority to call meetings of the independent directors.
We believe this current leadership structure with the combined Chairman and CEO leadership role and a lead independent director allows our Board to provide insight and direction on important strategic initiatives while also promoting efficient oversight of management and our business. The Board evaluates the role of Chairman and CEO on an annual basis to determine whether our leadership structure is continuing to best serve us and our shareholders.
Annual Board Evaluation
Pursuant to the charter of our Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and our corporate governance guidelines, the Nominating and Governance Committee leads an annual evaluation of the Board, and each committee of the Board leads an annual self-evaluation. The evaluations are designed to assess whether the Board and its committees function and are staffed effectively and to identify opportunities for improving Board and committee meetings and effectiveness. In fiscal year 2018, the Board completed an evaluation process focusing on the experience, qualifications, attributes and skills of each individual director, the effectiveness of the performance of the Board as a whole and each of the Board’s committees.
Risk Oversight
We face a number of risks, including risks relating to our financial condition, development activities, operations, litigation and strategic direction. Management is responsible for the day‑to‑day management of risks we face, while our Board has responsibility for the oversight of risk management, both on its own and through its committees.
The role of the Board in overseeing the management of our risks is conducted primarily through committees of the Board, as disclosed in the descriptions of each of the committees above and in the charters of each of the committees. For example, our Audit Committee is responsible for discussing guidelines and policies governing the process by which senior management of the Company and the internal auditing department assess and manage the Company’s exposure to risk, as well as identifying the Company’s major financial risk exposures and the steps management has taken to monitor and control such exposures. Additionally, our Compensation Committee oversees our incentive compensation arrangements to confirm that incentive pay arrangements do not encourage unnecessary risk-taking.
The Board (or the appropriate committee in the case of risks that are under the purview of a particular committee) discusses with management our major risk exposures, the potential impact on us, and the steps we take to manage them. At each regular meeting of our Board , the chair of each committee reports to the full Board regarding the matters reported and discussed at any committee meetings, including any matters relating to risk assessment or risk management, which enables the Board to fulfill its risk oversight role.
Policy on Hedging of Company Shares
The Company recognizes that hedging against losses in Company shares is not appropriate or acceptable trading activity for the Company's directors and executive officers. The Company's corporate governance guidelines prohibit our directors and executive officers from engaging in various hedging activities. The guidelines prohibit any form of hedging or monetization transaction (such as zero-cost collars or forward sale contracts) involving Company common shares.

21



Board and Committee Meeting Attendance
For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018, there were six meetings of the Board, seven meetings of the Audit Committee, six meetings of the Conflicts Committee, five meetings of the Compensation Committee and four meetings of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. During 2018, each member of the Board attended in person or participated in 75% or more of the aggregate of (i) the total number of meetings of the Board (held during the period for which such person has been a director), and (ii) the total number of meetings held by all committees of the Board on which such person served (during the periods that such person served), except for Evan Carruthers who attended or participated in 73% of such meetings. The independent directors of our Board regularly meet in executive session without management or other employees present.
Director Attendance at Annual Meeting of Shareholders
Directors are generally expected to attend the annual meeting of shareholders. We did not hold an annual meeting of shareholders in 2018.
Shareholder Communications with the Board
Shareholders may send written communications to the Board or to specified individuals on the Board, by writing to: Five Point Holdings, LLC, 15131 Alton Parkway, 4th Floor, Irvine, California 92618, Attention: Secretary. Shareholders should indicate on the outside of any envelope that the communication is intended for (i) the Board, (ii) the Chair of the Board, (iii) a specific committee of the Board, (iv) the lead independent director or (v) any other director. The Secretary will review all correspondence for the sole purpose of determining whether the contents represent a message to the Company’s directors. Any contents that are not in the nature of advertising, promotions of a product or service, or patently offensive material will be forwarded promptly to the addressee. In the case of communications to the Board or any group or committee of directors, the Secretary will make sufficient copies of the contents to send to each director who is a member of the group or committee to which the envelope is addressed.
Code of Business Conduct and Ethics
Our Board has established a code of business conduct and ethics that applies to all of our officers, directors and employees, including those officers responsible for financial reporting. Among other matters, our code of business conduct and ethics is designed to deter wrongdoing and to promote:
honest and ethical conduct, including the ethical handling of actual or apparent conflicts of interest between personal and professional relationships;
full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure in our SEC reports and other public communications;
compliance with laws, rules and regulations;
prompt internal reporting of violations of the code to appropriate persons identified in the code; and
accountability for adherence to the code of business conduct and ethics.
Our code of business conduct and ethics also provides that our non-employee directors are not obligated to limit their interests or activities in their non-director capacities or to notify us of any opportunities that may arise in connection therewith, even if the opportunities are complementary to, or in competition with, our businesses.
Any waiver of the code of business conduct and ethics for our directors or officers may be made only by our Board or one of our board committees, and will be promptly disclosed as required by law or the NYSE rules. A copy of our code of business conduct and ethics is available on our website at www.fivepoint.com. Our website and the information contained therein or connected thereto is not incorporated, or deemed to be incorporated, into this report.

SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF DIRECTORS AND EXECUTIVE OFFICERS AND
CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS
The following table sets forth information regarding the beneficial ownership of our Class A common shares and our Class B common shares, by:
each person known by us to beneficially own more than 5% of any class of our outstanding common shares;
each of our directors;
each of our named executive officers; and
all directors and executive officers as a group.
The number of shares and percentage of beneficial ownership is based on 68,746,555 Class A common shares and 79,275,234 Class B common shares issued and outstanding as of March 31, 2019. Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with the rules of the SEC and generally includes any shares over which a person exercises sole or shared voting or investment power. Common shares that a person has the right to acquire within 60 days are deemed to be outstanding and beneficially owned by the person, but are not deemed outstanding for purposes of computing the percentage of beneficial ownership for any other person. The number of Class A common shares shown as beneficially owned in the table (i) includes Class A common shares issuable upon conversion of outstanding Class B common shares and (ii) does not include shares that may be issued in exchange for Class A units of the Operating Company, as we may instead choose to pay cash in exchange for such units. Except as indicated by the footnotes below, we believe, based on the information furnished to us, that the persons and entities named in the table below have the sole voting and investment power with respect to all common shares that they beneficially own, subject to community property laws where applicable.
Unless otherwise indicated, all shares are owned directly. Except as indicated in the footnotes to the table below, the business address of the shareholders listed below is the address of our principal executive office, 15131 Alton Parkway, 4th Floor, Irvine, California 92618.

EXECUTIVE COMPENSATION
The compensation payable to our senior executive officers is determined by our Compensation Committee.

We are also electing to include compensation information for our other Co-Chief Operating Officer, Ms. Jochim, and our Chief Financial Officer, Mr. Higgins.

The amounts reported in the "Equity Awards" column represent the aggregate grant date fair value of equity awards in the form of restricted share or restricted share units (time-based vesting and performance-based vesting) computed in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board Accounting Standards Codification 718, Compensation—Stock Compensation ("ASC Topic 718"). The valuation assumptions are further described in Note 16, "Share-Based Compensation," in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC for the year ended December 31, 2018. With respect to the performance-based restricted share and restricted share unit awards, a Monte-Carlo approach was used to calculate the grant date fair value that reflects the most probable outcome of the performance conditions as of the grant date, which, for the 2018 performance-based awards granted in January 2019 to the Named Executive Officers, was 19.3% of the target number of restricted shares granted. If the maximum level of performance of 150% of target number of restricted shares granted is achieved with respect to the performance-based restricted shares granted for the 2018 award, the grant date values would be $1,875,000 for Mr. Haddad and $1,125,000 for each of Messrs. Alvarado, Bonner and Higgins and Ms. Jochim. Equity award amounts for 2017 are comprised of only time-based restricted shares granted in January 2018 for 2017 service.
Narrative to Summary Compensation Table
Employment agreements. None of our Named Executive Officers is party to an employment agreement with us. The Named Executive Officers are eligible for customary employee benefits, including a 401(k) plan and welfare benefits such as medical, dental, life and disability benefits, on a basis commensurate with the participation of other salaried employees of the Operating Company or its affiliates.
Non-equity Incentive Plan Compensation. In 2017 and 2018, each of the Named Executive Officers participated in an annual bonus compensation program. The award amounts for such years represent amounts paid by reason of attainment of a year-end cash availability requirement and individual performance metrics determined by the Compensation Committee.
Equity grants. Equity award amounts for 2017 reflect unvested restricted shares granted in January 2018 for 2017 service (the " 2017 Awards "). The 2017 Awards vest in three equal annual installments, with the first vesting on January 15, 2019. Vesting of the 2017 Awards made to the Named Executive Officers is generally subject to continued service to the Company. Upon a change in control, the 2017 Awards will vest in full if not assumed or substituted.
Equity award amounts for 2018 reflect unvested restricted shares and restricted share units granted in January 2019 for 2018 service (the " 2018 Awards "). Each Named Executive Officer’s 2018 Award consisted of an equal number of

26



performance-based and time-based restricted shares, plus a grant of an additional 50% of the performance-based restricted shares in the form of performance-based restricted share units. Vesting of all time-based restricted share awards made to the Named Executive Officers as part of the 2018 Awards is generally subject to continued service to the Company. Upon a change in control, the time-based 2018 Awards will vest in full if not assumed or substituted. Vesting of the performance-based restricted share awards made to the Named Executive Officers as part of the 2018 Awards will occur over three years, subject to the achievement of share price-based performance conditions. In the event of a change in control, the performance-based restricted share awards and restricted share units will vest at the greater of target or actual performance if not assumed or substituted and, if assumed or substituted, will convert into purely time-based awards at the target level of performance.
Outstanding Equity Awards at 2018 Fiscal Year End
The following table sets forth unvested equity awards held by the Named Executive Officers as of December 31, 2018 :

Potential Payments upon Termination or Change in Control
The Five Point Holdings, LLC Senior Management Severance and Change in Control Plan (the " Severance Plan ") provides severance benefits upon a qualifying termination of employment (a termination by the Company without "Cause," a termination by reason of death, "Disability" or "Retirement" or, in some circumstances, a termination by the participant for "Good Reason," as all such terms are defined in the Severance Plan).
Upon termination by the Company without Cause more than two years after and not less than six months before the consummation of a transaction that constitutes a "Change in Control" within the meaning of the Severance Plan, a participant is entitled to the following benefits, subject to execution of a release of claims against the Company:
a lump sum cash payment equal to 1- ½ times (2 times in the case of the CEO) the sum of the participant’s base salary and the average of the annual bonus payable in respect of the three calendar years (or, if less, for all calendar years of employment) preceding the date of termination;
a lump sum cash payment equal to the participant's pro-rata annual bonus at target for the year of termination; and
continued health, dental and vision benefits at the cost provided to active employees for one year (two years in the case of the CEO).
If such a qualifying termination occurs (or a termination by the participant for Good Reason occurs) within two years following a Change in Control (or within six months preceding a Change in Control where the termination occurs at the request of or by reason of circumstances requested by a potential acquirer), the severance multiple described in the first bullet above would be three for the CEO and two for all other participants.

27



Upon a termination by reason of death, disability or retirement (subject, in the case of retirement, to execution of a release of claims against the Company), a participant is entitled receive a lump sum cash payment equal to the participant's pro-rata annual bonus at target for the year of termination.
The Severance Plan provides that if a participant receives any amount, whether under the Severance Plan or otherwise, that is subject to the excise tax imposed pursuant to Section 4999 of the Internal Revenue Code, the amount of the payments to be made to the participant will be reduced to the extent necessary to avoid imposition of the excise tax, but only if the net amount of the reduced payments exceeds the net amount that the participant would receive following imposition of the excise tax and all income and related taxes.

Deloitte & Touche has been the Company's independent registered accounting firm since 2009. When conducting its latest review of Deloitte & Touche, the Audit Committee actively engaged with Deloitte & Touche's engagement partner and senior leadership, where appropriate, and considered among other factors: the professional qualifications of Deloitte & Touche and that of the lead audit partner and other key engagement partners, Deloitte & Touche's historical and recent performance on the Company's audits, Deloitte & Touche's fees, Deloitte & Touche's independence and independence policies, and Deloitte & Touche's tenure as the Company's independent registered public accounting firm and its related depth of understanding of the Company's business, industry, and accounting policies and practices (including its process to rotate the lead audit partner in accordance with PCAOB standards). As a result of this evaluation, the Audit Committee and Board approved the appointment Deloitte & Touche, subject to shareholder ratification.
Shareholder ratification of the selection of Deloitte & Touche as our independent registered public accountants is not required by law. However, our Board has decided that it is desirable to submit the selection of Deloitte & Touche to the shareholders for ratification. If the shareholders fail to ratify the selection, our Audit Committee will reconsider whether or not to retain Deloitte & Touche. Even if the selection is ratified, our Audit Committee in its discretion may direct the appointment of a different independent accounting firm at any time during the year if our Audit Committee determines that such a change would be in our and our shareholders’ best interests.

Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures for Audit and Permitted Non-Audit Services
The Audit Committee has established policies and procedures requiring that it pre-approve all audit and non-audit services to be provided by the independent registered public accounting firm to our Company.

The Audit Committee member to whom such authority is delegated must report, for informational purposes only, any pre-approval decisions to the Audit Committee at its next scheduled meeting. Consistent with these policies and procedures, the Audit Committee approved all of the services rendered by Deloitte & Touche LLP during fiscal years 2018 and 2017.

Audit Committee Report
Our Audit Committee issued the following report for inclusion in this proxy statement for the Annual Meeting.
The Audit Committee oversees the Company’s financial reporting process on behalf of the Company’s Board. The Company’s management has the primary responsibility for the Company’s financial statements, for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting, and for assessing the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting. In fulfilling its oversight responsibilities, the Committee reviewed and discussed with Company management the audited consolidated financial statements and the related schedule in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, including a discussion of the quality, not just the acceptability, of the accounting principles, the reasonableness of significant judgments, and the clarity of disclosures in the financial statements. The Committee is governed by a charter, and the Committee is comprised solely of independent directors as defined by the New York Stock Exchange listing standards and Rule 10A-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
The Committee discussed with the Company’s internal auditors and its independent auditor, Deloitte & Touche LLP, the overall scope and plans for their respective audits. The Committee meets with the internal auditors and Deloitte & Touche LLP, with and without management present, to discuss the results of their examinations, their evaluations of the Company’s internal control, and the overall quality of the Company’s financial reporting.
The Committee reviewed with Deloitte & Touche LLP, which is responsible for expressing an opinion on the conformity of those audited consolidated financial statements and related schedule with generally accepted accounting principles, its judgments

CERTAIN RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PERSON TRANSACTIONS
The Great Park Venture
The Great Park Neighborhoods is being developed by Heritage Fields LLC (the " Great Park Venture "). Interests in the Great Park Venture consist of percentage interests and legacy interests. Legacy interests are membership interests in the Great Park Venture that entitle holders to receive priority distributions from the Great Park Venture in an aggregate amount equal to $565 million ($355 million of which had been paid as of December 31, 2018). After the legacy interests have received their full priority distributions, all subsequent distributions would be made on percentage interests. We own a 37.5% percentage interest in the Great Park Venture. Lennar owns a 25% legacy interest in the Great Park Venture, and Lennar and an affiliate of Castlelake also own interests in an entity (" FPC-HF ") that owns a 12.5% legacy interest in the Great Park Venture. In June 2018, we purchased an interest in FPC-HF from our CEO, Emile Haddad, for approximately $1.8 million. We expect to receive distributions of approximately $2.8 million with respect to this interest as the Great Park Venture makes the remaining priority distributions to the holders of the legacy interests. In 2018, the Great Park Venture made aggregate distributions of $235 million to holders of its legacy interests.
We provide management services to the Great Park Venture pursuant to a development management agreement. As the development manager for the Great Park Venture, we recognized $35.1 million in revenue in 2018 related to management fees comprised of a base fee, project team reimbursement and incentive compensation. FPC-HF and an affiliate of Lennar hold Class B partnership interests in Five Point Communities, LP (" FP LP "), one of our subsidiaries involved in development management of the Great Park Neighborhoods. Holders of Class B partnership interests in FP LP are entitled to receive their pro rata portion of any incentive compensation payments under the development management agreement that are attributable to the legacy interests. No incentive compensation payments were paid by the Great Park Venture to the companies that managed the Great Park Venture in 2018.
Treasure Island
We previously entered into an agreement pursuant to which we provide development management services with respect to the Treasure Island community. We terminated this agreement as of December 31, 2018. The Treasure Island community is owned by a joint venture in which Lennar owns an interest. We received $2.1 million in management fees in 2018.
Concord
We have entered into an agreement pursuant to which we provide development management services with respect to the Concord community. An affiliate of Lennar has the right to acquire the first phase of the Concord community. We received $1.9 million in management fees in 2018.
Lennar-CL Venture
We have entered into an agreement with affiliates of a joint venture between affiliates of Lennar and Castlelake (the " Lennar-CL Venture ") pursuant to which we provide development management services with respect to the property owned by the Lennar-CL Venture. We received $0.4 million in management fees in 2018.
Entitlement Transfer Agreement
In December 2016, we entered into an agreement with the Lennar-CL Venture pursuant to which the Lennar-CL Venture agreed to transfer to us entitlements for the right to construct (1) at least 172 homesites (or, if greater, the number of entitled homesites that are not developed or to be developed by or on behalf of a municipal development agency (the " San Francisco Agency ") or by residential developers on the Phase 1 Land) and (2) at least 70,000 square feet of retail space (or, if greater, the amount of entitled retail space that is not developed or to be developed by or on behalf of the San Francisco Agency or by commercial developers on the Phase 1 Land) for use in the development of other portions of the Candlestick and The San Francisco Shipyard developments. The Company successfully received the necessary government approvals to effectuate the transfer of the entitlements in 2018, relinquished its rights to certain variable compensation related to the Candlestick purchase and sale agreements and received the additional entitlements.
Candlestick Retail Project
The Shipyard Communities, LLC (the " San Francisco Venture ") previously entered into a project with a joint venture (the " Mall Venture ") between an affiliate of The Macerich Company (" Macerich ") and a venture between Lennar and Castlelake to construct an urban retail outlet shopping district at Candlestick (the " Retail Project "). Construction of the Retail Project commenced in 2015 with the demolition of the Candlestick Park stadium and other infrastructure work. In early 2019, however, we and the members of the Mall Venture decided not to proceed with the Retail Project. Accordingly, on February 13, 2019, transactions related to the termination of the Retail Project were consummated, which resulted in the termination of the

34



obligation of the San Francisco Venture to convey parcels of property on which the Retail Project was intended to be developed by the Mall Venture. The San Francisco Venture was also released from certain development obligations. In return, the San Francisco Venture repaid Macerich a $65.1 million obligation related to a promissory note in the same principal amount, plus approximately $5.5 million of accrued interest associated with the promissory note. The San Francisco Venture also issued an aggregate of 436,498 of its Class A units (while we concurrently issued 436,498 Class B common shares) to affiliates of Lennar and Castlelake. 
In addition, an affiliate of Lennar agreed to contribute $25 million to the San Francisco Venture in exchange for the issuance of 25 million units of a new class of membership interest, designated as “Class C Units” (the “ Class C Units ”), redeemable at a price of $1 per Class C Unit. The holders of Class C Units are not entitled to receive distributions. In connection with the issuance of the Class C Units, the San Francisco Venture agreed to spend $25 million on the development of infrastructure and/or parking facilities at the Company’s Candlestick development. Provided that Lennar completes the construction of a certain number of new homes in Candlestick as contemplated under its agreements with the Company, the San Francisco Venture is required to redeem the Class C Units if and when the Company receives reimbursements from the Mello-Roos communities facilities district (“ CFD Reimbursements ”) formed for the Candlestick project, in an aggregate amount equal to 50% of any CFD Reimbursements up to a maximum amount of $25 million. Upon a liquidation of the San Francisco Venture, the holders of Class C Units are entitled to a liquidation preference in an aggregate amount equal to 50% of the cumulative amount of all CFD Reimbursements received, less the aggregate amount previously paid to redeem Class C Units. The maximum amount payable by the San Francisco Venture pursuant to redemptions or liquidation of the Class C Units is $25 million.
Review and Approval of Related Person Transactions
Our Board has adopted a written policy regarding the approval of any related person transactions, which (subject to certain limited exceptions) includes any transaction or series of transactions in which we or any of our subsidiaries is or are to be a participant, the amount involved exceeds $120,000 and a "related person" (as defined under SEC rules) has a direct or indirect material interest. Under the policy, a related person must promptly disclose to our Chief Legal Officer any proposed related person transaction and all material facts about the proposed transaction. Our Chief Legal Officer will then assess and promptly communicate that information to our Conflicts Committee. Based on our Conflicts Committee’s consideration of all of the relevant facts and circumstances, our Conflicts Committee will decide whether or not to approve such transaction and will generally approve only those transactions that it determines are in, or are not inconsistent with, our best interests. If we become aware of an existing related person transaction that has not been pre-approved under this policy, the transaction will be referred to our Conflicts Committee, which will evaluate all options available, including ratification, revision or termination of such transaction. Our policy requires any member of the Conflicts Committee who may be interested in a related person transaction to recuse himself or herself from any consideration of such related person transaction. As a result of our relationship with Lennar, land sales to Lennar and other transactions with Lennar that exceed the $120,000 threshold are subject to our policy regarding related person transactions.

OTHER MATTERS
Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance
Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act requires our executive officers, directors and persons who own more than ten percent of a registered class of our equity securities to file reports of ownership and changes in ownership with the SEC and the NYSE. Executive officers, directors and greater than ten percent shareholders are required by SEC regulation to furnish us with copies of all Section 16(a) forms they file.
Based solely on our review of the copies of such forms furnished to us and the written representations from certain of the reporting persons that no other reports were required, we believe that all executive officers, directors and greater than ten percent beneficial owners during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018 complied with the reporting requirements of Section 16(a).
Shareholder Proposals and Nominations
Proposals Pursuant to Rule 14a-8 . Pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act, shareholders may present proper proposals for inclusion in the proxy statement and for consideration at our next Annual Meeting of shareholders. To be eligible for inclusion in the 2020 proxy statement, your proposal must be received by us no later than December 28, 2019 and must otherwise comply with Rule 14a-8. While our Board will consider shareholder proposals, we reserve the right to omit from the proxy statement shareholder proposals that we are not required to include under the Exchange Act, including Rule 14a-8.
Proposals and Nominations Pursuant to Our Operating Agreement . Under our Operating Agreement, in order to nominate a director or bring any other business before the shareholders at the 2020 annual meeting of shareholders that will not be included in our proxy statement, you must notify us in writing and such notice must be delivered to or be mailed and received by us at the principal offices of the Company, at Five Point Holdings, LLC, c/o Secretary, 15131 Alton Parkway, 4th Floor, Irvine, California 92618, no earlier than January 8, 2020 and no later than February 7, 2020, unless our 2020 annual meeting of shareholders is not within twenty-five (25) days before or after the anniversary of our 2019 annual meeting of shareholders, in which case the notice must be received not later than the close of business on the tenth (10 th ) day following the day on which such notice of the date of the annual meeting was mailed or such public disclosure of the date of the 2020 annual meeting was made, whichever occurs first. For proposals not made in accordance with Rule 14a-8, you must comply with specific procedures set forth in our Operating Agreement and the nomination or proposal must contain the specific information required by our Operating Agreement. You may write to our Secretary at 15131 Alton Parkway, 4th Floor, Irvine, California 92618 to deliver the notices discussed above and to request a copy of the relevant Operating Agreement provisions regarding the requirements for making shareholder proposals and nominating director candidates pursuant to our Operating Agreement.
Householding of Proxy Materials
The SEC has adopted rules that permit companies and intermediaries (such as banks and brokers) to satisfy the delivery requirements for proxy statements and annual reports with respect to two or more shareholders sharing the same address by delivering a single proxy statement addressed to those shareholders. This process, which is commonly referred to as "householding," potentially means extra convenience for shareholders and cost savings for companies.
In accordance with the rules and regulations adopted by the SEC, we have elected to provide access to our proxy materials to our shareholders via the Internet. Accordingly, a notice of Internet availability of proxy materials has been mailed to our shareholders. Shareholders have the ability to access the proxy materials at  www.proxyvote.com , or request that a printed set of the proxy materials be sent to them, by following the instructions set forth on the Notice mailed to them. Some banks, brokers and other nominee record holders may be participating in the practice of "householding" proxy materials. This means that only one copy of our proxy materials or the Notice, as applicable, may have been sent to multiple shareholders in the same house. We will promptly deliver a separate Notice and, if requested, a separate proxy statement and annual report, to each shareholder that makes a request using the procedure set forth on the Notice. Shareholders who currently receive multiple copies of proxy materials at their address and would like to request householding of their communications, or would like additional copies of materials, may contact the Householding Department of Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. at 51 Mercedes Way, Edgewood, New York 11717, or at 1-866-540-7095, or at sendmaterial@proxyvote.com.
Where You Can Find More Information
The Company files annual, quarterly and current reports, proxy statements and other information with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Exchange Act. We make available free of charge on or through our Internet website at www.fivepoint.com ., our reports and other information filed with or furnished to the SEC and amendments to those reports filed or furnished pursuant to Section 13(a) or 15(d) of the Exchange Act as soon as reasonably practicable after we electronically

36



file such material with, or furnish it to, the SEC. The SEC's Internet website, www.sec.gov, also contains reports, proxy statements and other information about issuers, like us, who file electronically with the SEC.
WE WILL PROVIDE, WITHOUT CHARGE, ON THE WRITTEN REQUEST OF ANY SHAREHOLDER, A COPY OF OUR 2018 ANNUAL REPORT ON FORM 10-K, WITHOUT EXHIBITS, INCLUDING THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND THE FINANCIAL STATEMENT SCHEDULES REQUIRED TO BE FILED WITH THE SEC PURSUANT TO RULE 13A-1. SHAREHOLDERS SHOULD DIRECT SUCH REQUESTS TO THE COMPANY’S SECRETARY AT 15131 ALTON PARKWAY, 4TH FLOOR, IRVINE, CALIFORNIA 92618, OR BY EMAIL AT investor.relations@fivepoint.com.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in any of our previous filings under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, or the Exchange Act, which might incorporate future filings made by us under those statutes, the Audit Committee Report will not be incorporated by reference into any of those prior filings, nor will any such report be incorporated by reference into any future filings made by us under those statutes. In addition, references to our website in this proxy statement are not intended to function as hyperlinks and information on our website, other than our proxy statement, notice and form of proxy, is not part of the proxy soliciting material and is not incorporated herein by reference.

As of the date of this proxy statement, our Board knows of no other business that will be presented for consideration at the Annual Meeting. If other proper matters are presented at the Annual Meeting, however, it is the intention of the proxy holders named in the Company’s form of proxy to vote the proxies held by them in accordance with their best judgment.

ARTICLE III
SHARES SUBJECT TO THE PLAN
3.1 Number of Shares .
(a) Subject to Sections 3.1(c) and 12.2 hereof, the maximum aggregate number of Shares available for issuance under the Plan together with the number of LTIP Units available for issuance under the Plan (collectively, the “ Award Limit ”) shall be that number of Shares remaining available for issuance under the Plan immediately before the Effective Date and not then subject to an Award under the Plan plus 3,209,326 Shares, in each case as of the Effective Date, plus the number of Shares or LTIP Units that again become available for issuance on or after the Effective Date pursuant to Section 3.1(b) hereof, with each Share and LTIP Unit counted as one (1) for purposes of this Section 3.1(a). All Shares available for issuance under the Plan may be issued with respect to Incentive Share Options.
(b) For purposes of this Section 3.1, if an Award entitled the holder thereof to receive or purchase Shares or LTIP Units, the number of Shares or LTIP Units covered by such Award or to which such Award relates shall be counted on the date of grant of such Award against the aggregate number of Shares or LTIP Units available for granting Awards under the Plan. Shares or LTIP Units that are subject to or underlie Awards which expire or for any reason are cancelled, terminated, forfeited, fail to vest, or for any other reason are not paid or delivered under the Plan shall again be available for issuance in connection with future Awards granted under the Plan. To the extent Shares or LTIP Units are not delivered because they are used to satisfy the applicable tax withholding obligation, such Shares or LTIP Units will be deemed to have been delivered for purposes of determining the maximum number of Shares or LTIP Units available for delivery under the Plan and will not be available for future issuance under the Plan. Moreover, Shares purchased on the open market with cash proceeds generated by the exercise of an Option will not increase or replenish the number of Shares available for grant. In the event that Shares or LTIP Units are delivered in respect of an Award, all of the Shares or LTIP Units subject to the Award (and not only the actual number of Shares or LTIP Units actually issued to Participants) shall be considered in calculating the maximum number of Shares or LTIP Units available for delivery under the Plan (including Shares underlying a Share Appreciation Right that are retained by the Company to account for the exercise price of such Share Appreciation Right). Shares or LTIP Units surrendered or withheld as payment of either the exercise price of an Award and/or withholding taxes in respect of such an Award shall be counted against the award limits of this Plan and shall not again be available for issuance in connection with future Awards. If any Shares have been pledged as collateral for indebtedness incurred by a Participant in connection with the exercise of an Award and such Shares are returned to the Company in satisfaction of such indebtedness, such Shares shall not again be available for issuance.
(c) Substitute Awards shall not reduce the Shares or LTIP Units authorized for grant under the Plan. Additionally, in the event that a company acquired by the Company or any Affiliate, or with which the Company or any Affiliate combines, has shares available under a pre-existing plan approved by its shareholders and not adopted in contemplation of such acquisition or combination, the shares or units available for grant pursuant to the terms of such pre-existing plan (as adjusted, to the extent appropriate, using the exchange ratio or other adjustment or valuation ratio or formula used in such acquisition or combination to determine the consideration payable to the holders of common shares of the entities party to such acquisition or combination) may be used for Awards under the Plan in the Board’s discretion at the time of such acquisition or combination, as applicable, and shall not reduce the Shares or LTIP Units authorized for grant under the Plan; provided, however, that Awards using such available shares or units shall not be made after the date awards or grants could have been made under the terms of the pre-existing plan, absent the acquisition or combination, and shall only be made to individuals who were not employed by or providing services to the Company or its Affiliates immediately prior to such acquisition or combination.
3.2 Shares Distributed . Any Shares distributed pursuant to an Award may consist, in whole or in part, of authorized and unissued Shares, treasury Shares or Shares purchased on the open market.
3.3 Individual Award Limits . Notwithstanding any provision in the Plan to the contrary, and subject to Section 12.2 hereof, in respect of a Participant who is not a Non-Employee Director:
(a) the aggregate number of Shares subject to Options and Share Appreciation Rights awarded to any one Participant during any calendar year may not exceed 631,912 Shares; and

A- 6



(b) the aggregate number of Shares and LTIP Units subject to Awards other than Options and Share Appreciation Rights awarded to any one Participant during any calendar year may not exceed 631,912 Shares and LTIP Units in the aggregate.

4.2 Award Agreement . Each Award shall be evidenced by an Award Agreement stating the terms and conditions applicable to such Award, consistent with the requirements of the Plan and any applicable Program.

4.4 At-Will Service . Nothing in the Plan or in any Program or Award Agreement hereunder shall confer upon any Participant any right to continue as an Employee, Director or Consultant of the Company or any Affiliate, or shall interfere with or restrict in any way the rights of the Company or any Affiliate, which rights are hereby expressly reserved, to discharge any Participant at any time for any reason whatsoever, with or without cause, and with or without notice, or to terminate or change all other terms and conditions of any Participant’s employment or engagement, except to the extent expressly provided otherwise in a written agreement between the Participant and the Company or any Affiliate.
4.5 Foreign Participants . Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, in order to comply with the laws in other countries in which the Company and its Affiliates operate or have Employees, Non-Employee Directors or Consultants, or in order to comply with the requirements of any foreign securities exchange, the Administrator, in its sole discretion, shall have the power and authority to: (a) determine which Affiliates shall be covered by the Plan; (b) determine which Eligible Individuals outside the United States are eligible to participate in the Plan; (c) modify the terms and conditions of any Award granted to Eligible Individuals outside the United States to comply with applicable foreign laws or listing requirements of any such foreign securities exchange; (d) establish subplans and modify exercise procedures and other terms and procedures, to the extent such actions may be necessary or advisable (and any such subplans and/or modifications shall be attached to the Plan as appendices); provided, however, that no such subplans and/or modifications shall increase the Award Limit or Individual Award Limits contained in Sections 3.1 and 3.3 hereof, respectively; and (e) take any action, before or after an Award is made, that it deems advisable to obtain approval or comply with any necessary local governmental regulatory exemptions or approvals or listing requirements of any such foreign securities exchange. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrator may not take any actions hereunder, and no Awards shall be granted, that would violate the Code, the Exchange Act, the Securities Act, the rules of the securities exchange or automated quotation system on which the Shares are listed, quoted or traded or any other applicable law.
4.6 Stand-Alone and Tandem Awards . Awards granted pursuant to the Plan may, in the sole discretion of the Administrator, be granted either alone, in addition to or in tandem with, any other Award granted pursuant to the Plan. Awards granted in addition to or in tandem with other Awards may be granted either at the same time as or at a different time from the grant of such other Awards.
4.7 Minimum Vesting Requirement . Except as provided in Sections 11.4 and 12.2 hereof, any Awards granted under the Plan (other than Awards representing a maximum of five percent (5%) of the Shares reserved for issuance under the Plan pursuant to Section 3.1 hereof) shall be granted subject to a minimum vesting period of at least twelve (12) months.
4.8 No Dividends on Unvested Awards . Without limiting Sections 7.2 and 8.2 hereof, any dividend or Distribution Equivalent payable in respect of Shares subject to an Award issued hereunder shall be subject to the same restrictions, conditions and risks of forfeiture as apply to the underlying Shares.

ARTICLE V
GRANTING OF OPTIONS
5.1 Granting of Options to Eligible Individuals . The Committee is authorized to grant Options to Eligible Individuals from time to time, in its sole discretion, on such terms and conditions as it may determine which shall not be inconsistent with the Plan.
5.2 Qualification of Incentive Share Options . No Incentive Share Option shall be granted to any person who is not an Employee of the Company or any “parent corporation” or “subsidiary corporation” of the Company (as defined in Sections 424(e) and 424(f) of the Code, respectively). No person who qualifies as a Greater Than 10% Shareholder may be granted an Incentive Share Option unless such Incentive Share Option conforms to the applicable provisions of Section 422 of the Code. Any Incentive Share Option granted under the Plan may be modified by the Administrator, with the consent of the Participant, to disqualify such Option from treatment as an “incentive stock option” under Section 422 of the Code. To the extent that the aggregate fair market value of shares with respect to which “incentive stock options” (within the meaning of Section 422 of the Code, but without regard to Section 422(d) of the Code) are exercisable for the first time by a Participant during any calendar year under the Plan and all other plans of the Company and any Affiliate corporation thereof exceeds $100,000, the Options shall be treated as Non-Qualified Share Options to the extent required by Section 422 of the Code. The rule set forth in the preceding sentence shall be applied by taking Options and other “incentive stock options” into account in the order in which they were granted and the Fair Market Value of shares shall be determined as of the time the respective options were granted. In addition, to the extent that any Options otherwise fail to qualify as Incentive Share Options, such Options shall be treated as Nonqualified Share Options.
5.3 Option Exercise Price . Except as provided in Section 5.6 hereof, the exercise price per Share subject to each Option shall be set by the Administrator, but shall not be less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date the Option is granted (or, as to Incentive Share Options, on the date the Option is modified, extended or renewed for purposes of Section 424(h) of the Code). In addition, in the case of Incentive Share Options granted to a Greater Than 10% Shareholder, such price shall not be less than one hundred ten percent (110%) of the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date the Option is granted (or the date the Option is modified, extended or renewed for purposes of Section 424(h) of the Code).
5.4 Option Term . The term of each Option shall be set by the Committee in its sole discretion; provided, however, that the term shall not be more than ten (10) years from the date the Option is granted, or five (5) years from the date an Incentive Share Option is granted to a Greater Than 10% Shareholder. The Administrator shall determine the time period, including the time period following a Termination of Service, during which the Participant has the right to exercise the vested Options, which time period may not extend beyond the stated term of the Option. Except as limited by the requirements of Section 409A or Section 422 of the Code, the Committee may extend the term of any outstanding Option, and may extend the time period during which vested Options may be exercised, in connection with any Termination of Service of the Participant, and, subject to Section 12.1 hereof, may amend any other term or condition of such Option relating to such a Termination of Service.
5.5 Option Vesting .
(a) The terms and conditions pursuant to which an Option vests in the Participant and becomes exercisable shall be determined by the Committee and set forth in the applicable Award Agreement. Such vesting may be based on service with the Company or any Affiliate, any of the Performance Criteria, or any other criteria selected by the Committee. At any time after the grant of an Option, the Committee may, in its sole discretion and subject to whatever terms and conditions it selects, accelerate the vesting of the Option, including following a Termination of Service; provided, that in no event shall an Option become exercisable following its expiration, termination or forfeiture.
(b) No portion of an Option which is unexercisable at a Participant’s Termination of Service shall thereafter become exercisable, except as may be otherwise provided by the Committee either in an applicable Program, the applicable Award Agreement or by action of the Administrator following the grant of the Option.
5.6 Substitute Awards . Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Article V to the contrary, in the case of an Option that is a Substitute Award, the price per Share of the Shares subject to such Option may be less than the Fair Market Value per share on the date of grant, provided, however, that the exercise price of any Substitute Award shall be determined in accordance with the applicable requirements of Sections 424 and 409A of the Code.
5.7 Substitution of Share Appreciation Rights . The Committee may, in its sole discretion, substitute an Award of Share Appreciation Rights for an outstanding Option at any time prior to or upon exercise of such Option; provided, however, that such Share Appreciation Rights shall be exercisable with respect to the same number of Shares for which such substituted Option would have been exercisable, and shall also have the same exercise price and remaining term as the substituted Option.

7.4 Repurchase or Forfeiture of Restricted Shares .

(ii) No Award or interest or right therein shall be liable for the debts, contracts or engagements of the Participant or his or her successors in interest or shall be subject to disposition by transfer, alienation, anticipation, pledge, hypothecation, encumbrance, assignment or any other means whether such disposition be voluntary or involuntary or by operation of law by judgment, levy, attachment, garnishment or any other legal or equitable proceedings (including bankruptcy) unless and until such Award has been exercised, or the Shares underlying such Award have been issued, and all restrictions applicable to such Shares have lapsed, and any attempted disposition of an Award prior to the satisfaction of these conditions shall be null and void and of no effect, except to the extent that such disposition is permitted by clause (i) of this provision; and

(b) Notwithstanding Section 10.3(a) hereof, the Administrator, in its sole discretion, may determine to permit a Participant or a Permitted Transferee of such Participant to transfer an Award other than an Incentive Share Option (unless such Incentive Share Option is to become a Non-Qualified Share Option) to any one or more Permitted Transferees of such Participant, subject to the following terms and conditions: (i) an Award transferred to a Permitted Transferee shall not be assignable or transferable by the Permitted Transferee (other than to another Permitted Transferee of the applicable Participant) other than by will or the laws of descent and distribution; (ii) an Award transferred to a Permitted Transferee shall continue to be subject to all the terms and conditions of the Award as applicable to the original Participant (other than the ability to further transfer the Award); and (iii) the Participant (or transferring Permitted Transferee) and the Permitted Transferee shall execute any and all documents requested by the Administrator, including without limitation, documents to (A) confirm the status of the transferee as a Permitted Transferee, (B) satisfy any requirements for an exemption for the transfer under applicable federal, state and foreign securities laws and (C) evidence the transfer.

(c) Notwithstanding Section 10.3(a) hereof, a Participant may, in the manner determined by the Administrator, designate a beneficiary to exercise the rights of the Participant and to receive any distribution with respect to any Award upon the Participant’s death. A beneficiary, legal guardian, legal representative, trustee or other person claiming any rights pursuant to the Plan is subject to all terms and conditions of the Plan and any Program or Award Agreement applicable to the Participant, except to the extent the Plan, the Program and the Award Agreement otherwise provide, and to any additional restrictions deemed necessary or appropriate by the Administrator.

If no beneficiary has been designated or survives the Participant, payment shall be made to the person entitled thereto pursuant to the Participant’s will or the laws of descent and distribution. Subject to the foregoing, a beneficiary designation may be changed or revoked by a Participant at any time provided the change or revocation is delivered to the Administrator prior to the Participant’s death.
10.4 Conditions to Issuance of Shares .
(a) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, neither the Company nor its Affiliates shall be required to issue or deliver any certificates or make any book entries evidencing Shares pursuant to the exercise of any Award, unless and until the Administrator has determined, with advice of counsel, that the issuance of such Shares is in compliance with all applicable laws, regulations of governmental authorities and, if applicable, the requirements of any exchange on which the Shares are listed or traded, and the Shares are covered by an effective registration statement or applicable exemption from registration. In addition to the terms and conditions provided herein, the Administrator may require that a Participant make such reasonable covenants, agreements, and representations as the Administrator, in its discretion, deems advisable in order to comply with any such laws, regulations, or requirements.
(b) All Share certificates delivered pursuant to the Plan and all Shares issued pursuant to book entry procedures are subject to any stop-transfer orders and other restrictions as the Administrator deems necessary or advisable to comply with federal, state, or foreign securities or other laws, rules and regulations and the rules of any securities exchange or automated quotation system on which the Shares are listed, quoted, or traded. The Administrator may place legends on any Share certificate or book entry to reference restrictions applicable to the Shares.
(c) The Administrator shall have the right to require any Participant to comply with any timing or other restrictions with respect to the settlement, distribution or exercise of any Award, including a window-period limitation, as may be imposed in the sole discretion of the Administrator.
(d) No fractional Shares shall be issued and the Administrator shall determine, in its sole discretion, whether cash shall be given in lieu of fractional Shares or whether such fractional Shares shall be eliminated by rounding down.
(e) Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan, unless otherwise determined by the Administrator or required by any applicable law, rule or regulation, the Company and/or its Affiliates may, in lieu of delivering to any Participant certificates evidencing Shares issued in connection with any Award, record the issuance of Shares in the books of the Company (or, as applicable, its transfer agent or share plan administrator).

(i) If a Change in Control occurs and a Participant’s employment or service is terminated by the Company, its successor or an Affiliate thereof without Cause or by the Participant for Good Reason on or after the effective date of the Change in Control but prior to twenty-four (24) months following the Change in Control, then: (i) any unvested or unexercisable portion of any Award carrying a right to exercise shall become fully vested and exercisable; and (ii) the restrictions, deferral limitations, payment conditions and forfeiture conditions applicable to an Award granted under the Plan shall lapse and such Awards shall be deemed fully vested and any performance conditions imposed with respect to such Awards shall be deemed to be achieved at the target level of performance or, if greater, the actual level of performance.
(ii) Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 12.2(d), with respect to each outstanding Award that is not assumed or substituted in connection with a Change in Control, then immediately prior to the occurrence of the Change in Control: (i) any unvested or unexercisable portion of any Award carrying a right to exercise shall become fully vested and exercisable; and (ii) the restrictions, deferral limitations, payment conditions and forfeiture conditions applicable to an Award granted under the Plan shall lapse and such Awards shall be deemed fully vested and any performance conditions imposed with respect to such Awards shall be deemed to be achieved at the target level of performance.
(iii) For purposes of this Section 12.2(d), Awards shall be considered assumed or substituted for if, upon the occurrence of a Change in Control after which there will be a generally recognized U.S. public market for (1) the Shares, (2) common stock for which Shares are exchanged, or (3) the common stock of a successor or acquirer entity or any direct or indirect parent thereof (such publicly traded stock, “ Public Shares ), the then outstanding Awards are assumed, exchanged or substituted for by a successor or acquirer entity or any direct or indirect parent thereof such that following the Change in Control, the Awards relate to such Public Shares and, except as otherwise provided by this Section 12.2(d), remain subject to such terms and conditions that were applicable to the Awards prior to the Change in Control.
(e) The Administrator may, in its sole discretion, include such further provisions and limitations in any Award, agreement or certificate, as it may deem equitable and in the best interests of the Company that are not inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan.
(f) No adjustment or action described in this Section 12.2 or in any other provision of the Plan shall be authorized to the extent that such adjustment or action would cause the Plan to violate Section 422(b)(1) of the Code. Furthermore, no such adjustment or action shall be authorized with respect to any Award to the extent such adjustment or action would result in short-swing profits liability under Section 16 of the Exchange Act or violate the exemptive conditions of Rule 16b-3 of the Exchange Act unless the Administrator determines that the Award is not to comply with such exemptive conditions.
(g) The existence of the Plan, any Program, any Award Agreement and/or any Award granted hereunder shall not affect or restrict in any way the right or power of the Company or the shareholders of the Company to make or authorize any adjustment, recapitalization, reorganization or other change in the Company’s capital structure or its business, any merger or consolidation of the Company, any issue of shares or units or of options, warrants or rights to purchase shares or of bonds, debentures, preferred or prior preference shares whose rights are superior to or affect the Shares or the rights thereof or which are convertible into or exchangeable for Shares, or the dissolution or liquidation of the Company, or any sale or transfer of all or any part of its assets or business, or any other corporate act or proceeding, whether of a similar character or otherwise.
(h) No action shall be taken under this Section 12.2 which shall cause an Award to fail to comply with Section 409A of the Code or an exemption therefrom, in either case, to the extent applicable to such Award, unless the Administrator determines any such adjustments to be appropriate.

12.5 Effect of Plan upon Other Compensation Plans . The adoption of the Plan shall not affect any other compensation or incentive plans in effect for the Company or any Affiliate. Nothing in the Plan shall be construed to limit the right of the Company or any Affiliate: (a) to establish any other forms of incentives or compensation for Employees, Directors or Consultants of the Company or any Affiliate or (b) to grant or assume options or other rights or awards otherwise than under the Plan in connection with any proper corporate purpose, including, without limitation, the grant or assumption of options in connection with the acquisition by purchase, lease, merger, consolidation, or otherwise, of the business, securities, or assets of any corporation, partnership, limited liability company, firm, or association.
12.6 Compliance with Laws . The Plan, the granting and vesting of Awards under the Plan and the issuance and delivery of Shares and the payment of money under the Plan or under Awards granted or awarded hereunder are subject to compliance with all applicable federal, state, local and foreign laws, rules, and regulations (including but not limited to state, federal and foreign securities law and margin requirements) and the rules of any securities exchange or automated quotation system on which the Shares are listed, quoted, or traded, and to such approvals by any listing, regulatory, or governmental authority as may, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, be necessary or advisable in connection therewith. Any securities delivered under the Plan shall be subject to such restrictions and the person acquiring such securities shall, if requested by the Company, provide such assurances and representations to the Company as the Company may deem necessary or desirable to assure compliance with all applicable legal requirements. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Plan and Awards granted or awarded hereunder shall be deemed amended to the extent necessary to conform to such laws, rules and regulations.
12.7 Titles and Headings, References to Sections of the Code or Exchange Act . The titles and headings of the sections in the Plan are for convenience of reference only and, in the event of any conflict, the text of the Plan, rather than such titles or headings, shall control. References to sections of the Code or the Exchange Act shall include any amendment or successor thereto.
12.8 Governing Law . The Plan and any programs and agreements hereunder shall be administered, interpreted and enforced under the internal laws of the State of Delaware without regard to its principles regarding conflicts of laws.
12.9 Section 409A . The Plan as well as payments and benefits under the Plan are intended to be exempt from, or to the extent subject thereto, to comply with Section 409A of the Code, and, accordingly, to the maximum extent permitted, the Plan shall be interpreted in accordance therewith. Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, to the extent required in order to avoid accelerated taxation and/or tax penalties under Section 409A of the Code, a Participant shall not be considered to have terminated employment or service for purposes of the Plan and no payment shall be due to the Participant under the Plan or any Award until the Participant would be considered to have incurred a “separation from service” from the Company and its Affiliates within the meaning of Section 409A of the Code. Any payments described in the Plan that are due within the “short term deferral period” as defined in Section 409A of the Code shall not be treated as deferred compensation unless applicable law requires otherwise. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan, to the extent that any Awards (or any other amounts payable under any plan, program or arrangement of the Company or any of its Affiliates) are payable upon a separation from service and such payment would result in the imposition of any individual tax and penalty interest charges imposed under Section 409A of the Code, the settlement and payment of such awards (or other amounts) shall instead be made on the first business day after the date that is six (6) months following such separation from service (or death, if earlier). Each amount to be paid or benefit to be provided under the Plan shall be construed as a separate identified payment for purposes of Section 409A of the Code. The Company makes no representation that any or all of the payments or benefits described in the Plan will be exempt from or comply with Section 409A of the Code and makes no undertaking to preclude Section 409A of the Code from applying to any such payment. The Participant shall be solely responsible for the payment of any taxes and penalties incurred under Section 409A of the Code. Notwithstanding any provision of the Plan to the contrary, in the event that the Administrator determines that any Award may be subject to Section 409A of the Code, the Administrator may adopt such amendments to the Plan, any applicable Program and the Award Agreement or adopt other policies and procedures (including amendments, policies and procedures with retroactive effect), or take any other actions, that the Administrator determines are necessary or appropriate to avoid the imposition of taxes on the Award under Section 409A of the Code, either through compliance with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code or with an available exemption therefrom.
12.10 No Rights to Awards . No Eligible Individual or other person shall have any claim to be granted any Award pursuant to the Plan, and neither the Company nor the Administrator is obligated to treat Eligible Individuals, Participants or any other persons uniformly.
12.11 Unfunded Status of Awards . The Plan is intended to be an “unfunded” plan for incentive compensation. With respect to any payments not yet made to a Participant pursuant to an Award, nothing contained in the Plan or any Program or Award Agreement shall give the Participant any rights that are greater than those of a general creditor of the Company or any Affiliate.
12.12 Indemnification . To the extent provided in the Company’s organizational documents or in any individual agreement with a member of the Board and any officer or other employee to whom authority to administer any component of

A- 19



the Plan is delegated, such individuals shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Company from any loss, cost, liability, or expense that may be imposed upon or reasonably incurred by such member in connection with or resulting from any claim, action, suit, or proceeding to which he or she may be a party or in which he or she may be involved by reason of any action or failure to act pursuant to the Plan and against and from any and all amounts paid by him or her in satisfaction of judgment in such action, suit, or proceeding against him or her.
12.13 Relationship to other Benefits . No payment pursuant to the Plan shall be taken into account in determining any benefits under any pension, retirement, savings, profit sharing, group insurance, welfare, or other benefit plan of the Company or any Affiliate except to the extent otherwise expressly provided in writing in such other plan or an agreement thereunder.
12.14 Expenses . The expenses of administering the Plan shall be borne by the Company and its Affiliates.
