On October 16, 2024, upon the recommendation of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, and pursuant to the Second Amended and Restated Limited Liability Company Agreement of Five Point Holdings, LLC (the “Company”), the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) elected Sam Levinson as a Class I director, effective immediately, with an initial term expiring at the 2025 annual meeting of the Company’s shareholders. The Board has determined that Mr. Levinson is independent under applicable standards.
Mr. Levinson, age 50, is the Chief Investment Officer at Glick Family Investments (“Glick”), a private family office located in New York, New York, where he has overseen private equity investments since 2004. Mr. Levinson has served as Co-Chairman of the Board of Directors of Clipper Realty Inc. (NYSE: CLPR) since 2015. Previously, he was a member of the Board of Directors of Stonegate Mortgage Corporation (NYSE: SGM) from 2013 until its acquisition by Home Point Financial in May 2017, serving as Chairman of the Compensation Committee. Mr. Levinson served as a director of Canary Wharf Group, a U.K. property developer and manager of over 16 million square feet of Class A office and retail space, from 2004 until its sale in 2015, including as a member of the Operating Committee and Chairman of the Audit Committee. Mr. Levinson has also served as a non-executive director of American European Group Insurance Company since 2006 and Dynasty Financial Partners, LLC, which provides investment and technology platforms for independent financial, investment, and wealth management advisors, since 2011.

In connection with his appointment to the Board, Mr. Levinson is eligible to receive compensation in accordance with the Company’s standard compensation program for non-employee directors, as such program may be amended from time to time, including a prorated equity award.
Mr. Levinson has entered into the Company’s standard form of indemnification agreement for its directors and officers.
There are no arrangements or understandings between Mr. Levinson and any other person pursuant to which he was selected to serve on the Board. Mr. Levinson has no family relationship (within the meaning of Item 401(d) of Regulation S-K) with any director, executive officer or person nominated or chosen by the Company to become a director or executive officer. There are no transactions in which the Company is or was a participant and in which Mr. Levinson or any of his immediate family members (within the meaning of Item 404 of Regulation S-K) had or will have a direct or indirect material interest subject to disclosure under Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K.
Further, on October 16, 2024, the Company announced that Evan Carruthers, who has served as a member of the Board since 2009, informed the Board of his decision to resign from the Board, effective as of the close of the sale to Glick of the equity interests in the Company and its subsidiaries owned by Castlelake, L.P., of which Mr. Carruthers is the Chief Executive Officer, Managing Partner and Chief Investment Officer. Mr. Carruthers has been a valuable member of the Board. His decision to resign from the Board was not the result of any disagreement with the Company.
