Ladies and Gentlemen:


 


This letter agreement
(this “Letter Agreement”) is being delivered to LF Capital Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation
(“Parent”) in accordance with Section 1.3(b)(iv) of that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated
as of August 31, 2020 (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among Parent, LFCA Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware
corporation and a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent (“Merger Sub”), Landsea Homes Incorporated
(the “Company”) and Landsea Holdings Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Seller”),
pursuant to which, inter alia, the Company will merge with and into Merger Sub, with the Company surviving on the terms
and subject to the conditions set forth therein (the “Business Combination”). Capitalized terms used
but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Merger Agreement.


 


In order to induce
Parent, the Company, Merger Sub and Level Field Capital, LLC to enter into the Merger Agreement and for other good and valuable
consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Seller hereby agrees with Parent as follows:


 


1.    (a)
The Seller agrees that it shall not Transfer any Parent Shares until the earlier of (A) one year following the completion of the
Business Combination and (B) subsequent to the completion of the Business Combination, (x) if the last sale price of the Parent
Class A Stock equals or exceeds $12.00 per share as quoted on Nasdaq (adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations,
recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days following
the completion of the Business Combination or (y) the date following the completion of the Business Combination on which Parent
completes a liquidation, merger, capital stock exchange, reorganization or other similar transaction that results in all of the
Parent’s stockholders having the right to exchange their Parent Shares for cash, securities or other property (the “Parent
Shares Lock-up Period”).


 


(b) The Seller agrees
that it shall not Transfer any Parent Warrants (or Parent Class A Stock issued or issuable upon the exercise of Parent Warrants)
until 30 days after the completion of the Business Combination (the “Parent Warrants Lockup Period”).


 


(c) Notwithstanding
the provisions set forth in paragraphs 1(a) and (b), Transfers of the Parent Shares or Parent Class A Stock issued or issuable
upon the exercise or conversion of the Parent Warrants that are held by the Seller are permitted (a) to the Seller’s officers
or directors, any affiliates or family members of any of the Seller’s officers or directors, any shareholder of the Seller,
or any affiliates of the Seller; (b) in the case of an individual, transfers by gift to a member of the individual’s immediate
family, to a trust, the beneficiary of which is a member of the individual’s immediate family or an affiliate of such person,
or to a charitable organization; (c) in the case of an individual, transfers by virtue of laws of descent and distribution upon
death of the individual; (d) in the case of an individual, transfers pursuant to a qualified domestic relations order; (e) transfers
by private sales; (f) transfers in the event of the Parent’s liquidation; (g) transfers by virtue of the laws of the State
of Delaware or the Seller’s limited liability company agreement upon dissolution of the Seller; and (h) in the event of
the Parent’s merger, capital stock exchange, reorganization or other similar transaction which results in all of the Parent’s
stockholders having the right to exchange their Parent Shares for cash, securities or other property subsequent to the completion
of the Business Combination; provided, however, that in the case of clauses (a) through (e), these permitted transferees
must enter into a written agreement, in form and substance reasonably acceptable to Parent, agreeing to be bound by the restrictions
herein.

2.       As
used herein, “Transfer” shall mean the (a) sale or assignment of, offer to sell, contract or agreement
to sell, grant of any option to purchase or otherwise dispose of or agreement to dispose of, directly or indirectly, or establishment
or increase of a put equivalent position or liquidation with respect to or decrease of a call equivalent position within the meaning
of Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and the rules and regulations of the Commission promulgated
thereunder with respect to, any security, (b) entry into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or
in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of any security, whether any such transaction is to be settled by delivery
of such securities, in cash or otherwise or (c) public announcement of any intention to effect any transaction specified in clause
(a) or (b); provided, however, that nothing in this paragraph 2 shall prevent (i) a pledge or hypothecation of any
Parent Shares as collateral to a third party loan, (ii) a Transfer to any holder of phantom stock or equivalent security of the
Seller that has vested, as determined by the board of directors of the Seller, in satisfaction of such vested phantom stock or
equivalent security of the Seller, or (iii) a Transfer to an Affiliate; provided, further, that any transferee,
other than a transferee under paragraphs 2(i) or 2(ii), (x) agrees to be bound to the terms and conditions of this Letter Agreement
and (y) executes a joinder to this Letter Agreement in a form and substance reasonably acceptable to Parent.


 


3.       This
Letter Agreement constitutes the entire agreement and understanding of the parties hereto in respect of the subject matter hereof
and supersedes all prior understandings, agreements, or representations by or among the parties hereto, written or oral, to the
extent they relate in any way to the subject matter hereof or the transactions contemplated hereby. This Letter Agreement may
not be changed, amended, modified or waived (other than to correct a typographical error) as to any particular provision, except
by a written consent from Parent.


 


4.       The
Seller may not assign either this Letter Agreement or any of its rights, interests, or obligations hereunder without the prior
written consent of Parent. Any purported assignment in violation of this paragraph shall be void and ineffectual and shall not
operate to transfer or assign any interest or title to the purported assignee. This Letter Agreement shall be binding on the Seller
and any of its successors, heirs, assigns and permitted transferees.


 


5.       This
Letter Agreement shall be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without
giving effect to conflicts of law principles that would result in the application of the substantive laws of another jurisdiction.
The parties hereto (i) all agree that any action, proceeding, claim or dispute arising out of, or relating in any way to, this
Letter Agreement shall be brought and enforced in the courts of New York City, in the State of New York, and irrevocably submit
to such jurisdiction and venue, which jurisdiction and venue shall be exclusive and (ii) waive any objection to such exclusive
jurisdiction and venue or that such courts represent an inconvenient forum.


 


6.       The
Seller represents and warrants that it has never been suspended or expelled from membership in any securities or commodities exchange
or association or had a securities or commodities license or registration denied, suspended or revoked. The Seller’s questionnaire
furnished to Parent, as applicable, is true and accurate in all respects. The Seller represents and warrants that (A) it is not
subject to or a respondent in any legal action for any injunction, cease-and-desist order or order or stipulation to desist or
refrain from any act or practice relating to the offering of securities in any jurisdiction and (B) it has never been convicted
of, or pleaded guilty to, any crime (i) involving fraud, (ii) relating to any financial transaction or handling of funds of another
person, or (iii) pertaining to any dealings in any securities and it, he or she is not currently a defendant in any such criminal
proceeding.

Seller hereby agrees and acknowledges that: (i) Parent would be irreparably injured in the event of a breach by Seller of its,
his or her obligations under paragraphs 1(a), 1(b), 4 or 6 of this Letter Agreement; (ii) monetary damages may not be an adequate
remedy for such breach; and (iii) the non-breaching party shall be entitled to injunctive relief, in addition to any other remedy
that such party may have in law or in equity, in the event of such breach.


 


8.       Any
notice, consent or request to be given in connection with any of the terms or provisions of this Letter Agreement shall be in
writing and shall be sent by express mail or similar private courier service, by certified mail (return receipt requested), by
hand delivery, pdf or facsimile transmission.

Letter Agreement shall terminate upon the earliest to occur of (a)(i) with respect to the Parent Shares subject to this Agreement,

and shares of Parent Class A Stock issued or issuable upon the exercise of such Parent Warrants, the expiration of the Parent
Warrants Lock-up Period, and (b) the termination of the Merger Agreement in accordance with its terms.
