INCENTIVE EQUITY PLAN 
 1. Purpose of Plan. This 2009 Incentive Equity Plan (the “Plan”) of loanDepot.com, LLC, a
Delaware limited liability company (the “Company”), adopted by the Board of the Company on December 30, 2009, for employees, managers, consultants and advisers of the Company and its Subsidiaries (including, without limitation,
Trilogy Management Investors, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, which will hold Class Z Common Units on behalf of certain employees, managers, consultants and advisers of the Company and its Subsidiaries), is intended to advance the best
interests of the Company and its Subsidiaries by providing those persons who have a substantial responsibility for their management and growth with additional incentives by allowing such persons to acquire an equity interest in the Company and
thereby encouraging them to contribute to the success of the Company and its Subsidiaries and, in the case of employees, to remain in their employ. The availability and offering of Class Z Common Units under the Plan also is intended to increase the
Company and its Subsidiaries’ ability to attract and retain individuals of exceptional managerial talent upon whom, in large measure, the sustained progress, growth, and profitability of the Company and its Subsidiaries depends. The Plan is
intended to be a compensatory benefit plan within the meaning of Rule 701 of the Securities Act and, unless and until the Class Z Common Units are publicly traded, the issuance of Class Z Common Units pursuant to the Plan is intended to qualify for
the exemption from registration under the Securities Act provided by Rule 701.
