Forward-looking Statements
When used in this presentation and in documents filed with or furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), or other public shareholder
communications, or in oral statements made with the approval of an authorized executive officer, the words or phrases “believe,” “will,” “should,” “will likely result,”
“are expected to,” “will continue,” “is anticipated,” “estimate,” “project,” “plans,” or similar expressions are intended to identify “forward-looking statements” within
the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on any forward-looking statements, which speak
only as of the date made. These statements may relate to future financial performance, strategic plans or objectives, revenue, expense or earnings projections, or other
financial items of Banc of California Inc. and its affiliates (“BANC,” the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our”). By their nature, these statements are subject to numerous
uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those anticipated in the statements.
Factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results anticipated or projected include, but are not limited to, the following: (i) the outcome of any
legal proceedings that may be instituted against the Company with respect to the recently completed Banco Popular (“BPOP”) transaction, or the associated direct
registered sale of common stock to entities managed by Oaktree Capital Management and Patriot Financial Partners, LP (the “Investors”); (ii)  risks that the BPOP
transaction, the sale of common stock to the Investors, or the Company’s recently completed acquisitions, including the acquisitions of The Private Bank of California,
CS Financial, Inc., and The Palisades Group, may disrupt current plans and operations, the potential difficulties in customer and employee retention as a result of those
transactions and the amount of the costs, fees, expenses and charges related to those transactions; (iii) the credit risks of lending activities, which may be affected by
further deterioration in real estate markets and the financial condition of borrowers, may lead to increased loan and lease delinquencies, losses and nonperforming
assets in our loan portfolio, and may result in our allowance for loan and lease losses not being adequate to cover actual losses and require us to materially increase
our loan and lease loss reserves; (iv) the quality and composition of our securities and loan portfolios; (v) changes in general economic conditions, either nationally or in
our market areas; (vi) continuation of the historically low short-term interest rate environment, changes in the levels of general interest rates, and the relative
differences between short- and long-term interest rates, deposit interest rates, our net interest margin and funding sources; (vii) fluctuations in the demand for loans
and leases, the number of unsold homes and other properties and fluctuations in commercial and residential real estate values in our market area; (viii) results of
examinations of us by regulatory authorities and the possibility that any such regulatory authority may, among other things, require us to increase our allowance for
loan and lease losses, write-down asset values, increase our capital levels, or affect our ability to borrow funds or maintain or increase deposits, which could adversely
affect our liquidity and earnings; (ix) legislative or regulatory changes that adversely affect our business, including changes in regulatory capital or other rules; (x) our
ability to control operating costs and expenses; (xi) staffing fluctuations in response to product demand or the implementation of corporate strategies that affect our
work force and potential associated charges; (xii) errors in our estimates in determining fair value of certain of our assets, which may result in significant declines in
valuation; (xiii) the network and computer systems on which we depend could fail or experience a security breach; (xiv) our ability to attract and retain key members of
our senior management team; (xv) costs and effects of litigation, including settlements and judgments; (xvi) increased competitive pressures among financial services
companies; (xvii) changes in consumer spending, borrowing and saving habits; (xviii) adverse changes in the securities markets; (xix) earthquake, fire or other natural
disasters affecting the condition of real estate collateral; (xx) the availability of resources to address changes in laws, rules or regulations or to respond to regulatory
actions; (xxi) inability of key third-party providers to perform their obligations to us; (xxii) changes in accounting policies and practices, as may be adopted by the
financial institution regulatory agencies or the Financial Accounting Standards Board or their application to our business or final audit adjustments, including additional
guidance and interpretation on accounting issues and details of the implementation of new accounting methods; (xxiii) war or terrorist activities; and (xxiv) other
economic, competitive, governmental, regulatory, and technological factors affecting our operations, pricing, products and services and the other risks described in this
report and from time to time in other documents that we file with or furnish to the SEC. You should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements, and we
undertake no obligation to update any such statements to reflect circumstances or events that occur after the date on which the forward-looking statement is made.
