Slide 1

When used in this presentation and in documents filed with or furnished to the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), in press releases or other public stockholder 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) a pending investigation by the SEC may result in adverse findings, reputational damage, the imposition of sanctions, increased costs and other negative consequences; (ii) management time and resources may be diverted to address the pending SEC investigation as well as any related litigation, litigation initiated by stockholders and other litigation; (iii) the costs and effects of litigation, including settlements and judgments; (iv) risks that the Company’s merger and acquisition transactions may disrupt current plans and operations and lead to difficulties in customer and employee retention, risks that the costs, fees, expenses and charges related to these transactions could be significantly higher than anticipated and risks that the expected revenues, cost savings, synergies and other benefits of these transactions might not be realized to the extent anticipated, within the anticipated timetables, or at all; (v) risks that funds obtained from capital raising activities will not be utilized efficiently or effectively; (vi) a worsening of current economic conditions, as well as turmoil in the financial markets; (vii) the credit risks of lending activities, which may be affected by 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 and lease 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; (viii) the quality and composition of our securities portfolio; (ix) changes in general economic conditions, either nationally or in our market areas, or changes in financial markets; (x) continuation of or changes in the historically low short-term interest rate environment, changes in the levels of general interest rates, volatility in the interest rate environment, the relative differences between short- and long-term interest rates, deposit interest rates, our net interest margin and funding sources; (xi) 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; (xii) our ability to develop and maintain a strong core deposit base or other low cost funding sources necessary to fund our activities; (xiii) results of examinations of us by regulatory authorities and the possibility that any such regulatory authority may, among other things, limit our business activities, require us to change our business mix, increase our allowance for loan and lease losses, write-down asset values or increase our capital levels, or affect our ability to borrow funds or maintain or increase deposits, any of which could adversely affect our liquidity and earnings; (xiv) legislative or regulatory changes that adversely affect our business, including, without limitation, changes in tax laws and policies and changes in regulatory capital or other rules, as well as additional regulatory burdens that result from our growth to over $10 billion in total assets; (xv) our ability to control operating costs and expenses; (xvi) staffing fluctuations in response to product demand or the implementation of corporate strategies that affect our work force and potential associated charges; (xvii) errors in estimates of the fair values of certain of our assets and liabilities, which may result in significant changes in valuation; (xviii) the network and computer systems on which we depend could fail or experience a security breach; (xix) our ability to attract and retain key members of our senior management team; (xx) increased competitive pressures among financial services companies; (xxi) changes in consumer spending, borrowing and saving habits; (xxii) adverse changes in the securities markets; (xxiii) earthquake, fire or other natural disasters affecting the condition of real estate collateral; (xxiv) the availability of resources to address changes in laws, rules or regulations or to respond to regulatory actions; (xxv) inability of key third-party providers to perform their obligations to us; (xxvi) 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; (xxvii) share price volatility and reputational risks, related to, among other things, speculative trading and certain traders shorting our common shares and attempting to generate negative publicity about us; (xxviii) war or terrorist activities; and (xix) other economic, competitive, governmental, regulatory, and technological factors affecting our operations, pricing, products and services and the other risks described 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.

This presentation contains certain financial measures determined by methods other than in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). These measures include noninterest expense from continuing operations, operating expense from continuing operations, and diluted earnings per share from continuing operations, adjusted for non-recurring items, each excluding loss on investments in alternative energy partnerships and the latter two also reflecting adjustments for non-recurring items. Management believes that these particular measures provide useful supplemental information in understanding our core operating performance. These measures should not be viewed as substitutes for measures determined in accordance with GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non‐GAAP measures that may be presented by other companies. Reconciliations of these measures to measures determined in accordance with GAAP are contained on slides 10, 14, 20, and 23 of this presentation. Non-GAAP measures in this presentation also include tangible equity to tangible assets, tangible common equity to tangible assets, return on average tangible common equity, and adjusted efficiency ratio including the pre-tax effect of investments in alternative energy partnerships. These particular measures are used by management in its analysis of the Company's capital strength and the performance of the Company’s businesses. Banking and financial institution regulators also exclude goodwill and other intangible assets from total stockholders' equity when assessing the capital adequacy of a financial institution. Management believes the presentation of these measures excluding the impact of these items provides useful supplemental information that is essential to a proper understanding of the capital and financial strength of the Company and the performance of its businesses. These measures should not be viewed as substitutes for results determined in accordance with GAAP, nor are they necessarily comparable to non-GAAP measures that may be presented by other companies. Reconciliations of these measures to measures determined in accordance with GAAP are contained on slides 20-23 of this presentation. Non-GAAP Financial Information
