Subject to regulatory restrictions, market conditions and other factors, the Reporting Persons may purchase additional securities of the Issuer, maintain their present ownership of securities of the Issuer or sell some or all of the securities of the Issuer. The Reporting Persons may modify their plans depending on the Reporting Persons’ evaluation of various factors, including the investment potential of the Class A Common Shares, the Issuer’s business prospects and financial position, other developments concerning the Issuer, opportunities that may be available to the Issuer, the price level and availability of the Class A Common Shares, available opportunities to acquire or dispose of the Class A Common Shares, conditions in the securities markets and general economic and industry conditions, reinvestment opportunities and other factors deemed relevant by the Reporting Persons. In connection with the activities described above, the Reporting Persons intend to communicate with, and express their views to, the board of directors and management of the Issuer and may communicate with, and express their views to, other persons regarding the Issuer, including, without limitation, other stockholders of the Issuer and potential strategic or financing partners.

Except as described in this Item 4, the Reporting Persons currently have no plans or proposals that relate to or would result in any transaction, event or action set forth in subsections (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D. The Reporting Persons reserve the right to formulate plans or make proposals, and take such action with respect thereto, including any or all of the items set forth in subsections (a) through (j) of Item 4 of Schedule 13D and any other actions, as they may determine.

The foregoing percentage calculation is based on 69,358,504 Class A Common Shares of the Issuer outstanding as of October 11, 2024, as reported on the Form 10-Q filed by the Issuer on October 18, 2024.

Item 6. Contracts, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships with Respect to Securities of the Issuer

Item 4 above summarizes certain provisions of the Share Purchase Agreement and is incorporated herein by reference. A copy of the Share Purchase Agreement is attached as an exhibit to this statement, and is incorporated herein by reference.

In addition, as a result of the transactions contemplated by the Share Purchase Agreement, GFFP Holdings is the record holder of an aggregate of (i) 7,101,625 Class A Units of Five Point Operating Company, LP (the “Operating Company Class A Units”), (ii) 11,863,697 Class A Units of The Shipyard Communities, LLC (the “Shipyard Communities Class A Units”), and (iii) 18,965,322 Class B Common Shares of the Issuer. Pursuant to the Limited Partnership Agreement of Five Point Operating Company, LP and the Second Amended and Restated Operating Agreement of The Shipyard Communities, LLC, the Shipyard Communities Class A Units are exchangeable at any time for an equal number of Operating Company Class A Units, which in turn are exchangeable at the option of the Issuer for either (a) Class A Common Shares on a one-for-one basis or (b) cash in an amount equal to the market value of such shares at the time of exchange. Upon an exchange of Operating Company Class A Units for Class A Common Shares, an equal number of Class B Common Shares will automatically convert to Class A Common Shares on a 1-for-0.0003 basis.

On May 2, 2016, the Issuer and certain of the Sellers (the “Seller TRA Entities”), among other current and former holders of Operating Company Class A Units and holders of Shipyard Communities Class A Units, entered into a Tax Receivable Agreement. The Tax Receivable Agreement provides for payments by the Issuer to such investors or their successors in aggregate amounts equal to 85% of the cash savings, if any, in income tax that the Issuer realizes as a result of (i) increases in tax basis that are attributable to exchanges of Operating Company Class A Units for the Class A Common Shares or cash or certain other taxable acquisitions of equity interests by the Issuer, (ii) allocations that result from the application of the principles of Section 704(c) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, and (iii) tax benefits related to imputed interest or guaranteed payments deemed to be paid or incurred by the Issuer as a result of the Tax Receivable Agreement. Pursuant to the Share Purchase Agreement, GFFP Holdings assumed all of the Seller TRA Entities’ interests under the Tax Receivable Agreement at the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Share Purchase Agreement. In connection with assumption of the Seller TRA Entities’ interests under the Tax Receivable Agreement, GFFP Holdings became a party to the Tax Receivable Agreement.
