If the Company shall institute any action or proceeding to enforce any   such Restrictive Covenant, the Executive hereby waives the claim or defense   that the Company or any of its affiliates has an adequate remedy at law and   agrees not to assert in any such action or proceeding the claim or defense   that the Company or any of its affiliates has an adequate remedy at law. 11.

(a) Notwithstanding anything herein   to the contrary: (i) any payments made to the Executive pursuant to this   Agreement or otherwise are subject to and conditioned upon their compliance   with 12 U.S.C. 1828(k) and 12 C.F.R. Part 359 regarding golden parachute and   indemnification payments; (ii) no annual bonus, incentive compensation,   severance pay, or golden parachute payments or benefits shall be paid,   provided, or accrued under this Agreement or otherwise to the extent it would   violate Section Ill of Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008, as   amended ("EESA"), and the Interim Final Ru1e (as hereinafter   defined); (iii) no payment or benefit shall be paid or provided under this   Agreement or otherwise to the extent that it would violate any agreement   between or among the Company and the Board of Governors of the Federal   Reserve System, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency or any other   governmental entity or agency, provided that the Company shall use   commercially reasonable efforts to negotiate the authority and right to make   all payments and provide all benefits to the Executive as and when   contemplated by this Agreement; and (iv) subject to, and in accordance with,   the interim final rule promulgated pursuant to Sections IOI(a), 101(c)(5),   and 111 ofEESA (the "Interim Final Rule"), the Executive shall be   required to repay to the Company the amount of any bonus payment (as defined   in the Interim Final Rule) made during the TARP period (as defined in the   Interim Final Rule) to the extent that the bonus payment was based on   materially inaccurate financial statements (which includes, but is not   limited to, statements of earnings, revenues, or gains) or any other   materially inaccurate performance metric criteria. (b) In the event that the   amounts and benefits payable pursuant to this Agreement, when added to other   amounts and benefits which may become payable to the Executive by the Company   and any affiliated company, are such that the Executive becomes subject to   the excise tax provisions of Section 4999 of the Code relating to   "excess parachute payments" as defined for purposes of Section 280G   of the Code, the Company shall pay the Executive such additional amount or   amounts as will result in the Executive's retention of a net amount, after   the payment of all federal, state and local excise, employment and income   taxes on such payments and the value of such benefits, equal to the net   amount the Executive would have retained had the initially calculated payment   and benefits not been subject to such excise tax provisions. For purposes of   the preceding sentence, the Executive shall be deemed to be subject to the   highest marginal federal, relevant state and relevant local tax rate   applicable to an individual resident in Los Angeles, California. All   calculations required to be made under this subsection shall be made by the   Company's independent public accountants, subject to the right of Executive's   representative to review the same. All such amounts required to be paid by   Execution Copy Page 11 of16 I 0904-00002/2781363.3 


    




 










this Section   shall be paid at the time any withholding may be required by the Company, or   any taxes may be required to be paid by the Executive, under applicable law,   and any additional amounts to which the Executive may be entitled shall be   paid or reimbursed no later than fifteen (15) days following confirmation of   such amount by the Company's independent public accountants. In the event any   amounts paid hereunder are subsequently determined to be in error, due to   estimates required for calculation of such payments being proving to be   inaccurate or otherwise, the parties hereto agree to reimburse each other to   correct such error, as appropriate, and to pay interest thereon at the   applicable federal rate (as determined pursuant to Code Section 1274) for the   period of time such erroneous amount remained outstanding and unreimbursed.   The parties hereto recognize that the actual implementation of the provisions   of this Section 11(b) are complex and agree to deal with each other in good   faith to resolve any questions or disagreements arising with respect hereto.   12. Section 409A. This Agreement is intended to comply with the requirements   of Section 409A of the Code (including the exceptions thereto), to the extent   applicable, and the parties' Agreement shall be interpreted in accordance   with such requirements. If any provision contained in the Agreement conflicts   with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code (or the exemptions intended   to apply under the Agreement), the Agreement shall be deemed to be reformed   to comply with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code (or the   applicable exemptions thereto). Notwithstanding anything to the contrary   herein, for purposes of determining the Executive's entitlement to the   Severance Payments, (i) the Service Period shall not be deemed to have   terminated unless and until the Executive incurs a "separation from   service" as defined in Section 409A ofthe Code, and (ii) the term   "Date of Termination" shall mean the effective date of the   Executive's separation from service. Reimbursement of any expenses provided   for in this Agreement shall be made promptly upon presentation of   documentation in accordance with the Company's policies (as applicable) with   respect thereto as in effect from time to time (but in no event later than   the end of calendar quarter following the year such expenses were incurred);   provided, however, in no event shall the amount of expenses eligible for   reimbursement hereunder during a calendar year affect the expenses eligible   for reimbursement in any other taxable year. Notwithstanding anything to the   contrary herein, if a payment or benefit under this Agreement is due to a   "separation from service" for purposes of the rules under Treas.   Reg. § 1.409A-3(i)(2) (payments to specified employees upon a separation from   service) and the Executive is determined to be a "specified   employee" (as determined under Treas. Reg. § 1.409A-1(i) and related   Company procedures), such payment shall, to the extent necessary to comply   with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code, be made on the later of(x)   the date specified by the foregoing provisions of this Agreement or (y) the   date that is six (6) months after the date of the Executive's separation from   service (or, if earlier, the date of the Executive's death). Any installment   payments that are delayed pursuant to this Section 12 shall be accumulated   and paid in a lump sum on the first day of the seventh month following the   Date ofTermination (or, if earlier, upon the Executive's death) and the   remaining installment payments shall begin on such date in accordance with   the schedule provided in this Agreement. The Severance Payments are intended   not to constitute deferred compensation subject to Section 409A of the Code   to the extent such Severance Payments are covered by (i) the "short-term   deferral exception" set forth in Treas. Reg. § 1.409A-1(b)(4), (ii) the   "two Execution Copy Page 12 of16 I 0904-00002!2781363.3 


    




 










times severance   exception" set forth in Treas. Reg. § 1.409A-l(b)(9)(iii), or (iii) the   "limited payments exception" set forth in Treas. Reg. §   1.409A-l(b)(9)(v)(D). The short-term deferral exception, the two times   severance exception and the limited payments exception shall be applied to   the Severance Payments in order of payment in such manner as results in the   maximum exclusion of such Severance Payments from treatment as deferred   compensation under Section 409A of the Code. Each installment of the Severance   Payments shall be deemed to be a separate payment for purposes of Section   409A of the Code. 13. Legal Fees. The Company shall promptly reimburse the   Executive for her reasonable legal fees incurred in connection with the   negotiation and preparation of this Agreement. 14. Miscellaneous. (a) Any   notice or other communication required or permitted under this Agreement   shall be effective only if it is in writing and shall be deemed to be given   when delivered personally or one (1) day after it is sent by a reputable   overnight courier service (with evidence of delivery) and, in each case,   addressed as follows (or if it is sent through any other method agreed upon   by the parties): If to BFC: Broadway Financial Corporation Attn: Chief   Executive Officer 5055 Wilshire Boulevard, Suite 500 Los Angeles, CA 90036 If   to the Bank: Broadway Federal Bank, f.s.b.

(b) This   Agreement together with the Broadway Financial Corporation Award Agreement   dated February 24, 2016 (the "2016 Stock Option Agreement"), and   the rights of the Executive pursuant to the ESOP shall constitute the entire   agreement among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof,   and supersede and replace any and all prior understandings or agreements with   respect to the subject matter hereof.

(c) Only an   instrument in writing signed by the parties hereto may amend this Agreement,   and any provision hereof may be waived only by an instrument in writing   signed by the party or parties against whom or which enforcement of such   waiver is sought. The failure of any party hereto at any time to require the   performance by any other party hereto of any provision hereof shall in no way   affect the full right to require such performance at any time thereafter, nor   shall the waiver by any party hereto of a breach of any provision hereof be   taken or held to be a waiver of any succeeding breach of such provision or a   waiver of the provision itself or a waiver of any other provision of this   Agreement. (d) In the event that any provision is determined to be invalid or   unenforceable, in whole or in part, such determination shall in no way affect   any other provisions of this Agreement, or the validity or enforcement of the   remainder of this Agreement, and any provisions(s) thus affected shall be   modified to the extent necessary to bring the affected provision(s) within   the applicable requirements ofthe then-current Jaw. (e) The Company shall use   its commercially reasonable efforts to arrange for any successor (whether   direct or indirect, by purchase, merger, consolidation or otherwise) to all   or substantially all ofthe business and/or assets ofthe Company to assume   this Agreement in the same manner and to the same extent that the Company   would have been required to perform it if no such succession had taken place.   As used in this Agreement, the term "Company" shall mean the   Company and any such successor (or successors) that assumes this Agreement,   by operation of law or otherwise. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no such   assignment or assumption shall relieve the Company of any obligations   hereunder. (f) The parties hereto shall cooperate with each other and take   all actions, including obtaining, any governmental or stockholder approval,   that any of them may determine in good faith to be required to carry out the   terms of this Agreement. (g) The Company may withhold from any amounts   payable to the Executive hereunder all federal, state, city or other taxes   that the Company may reasonably determine are required to be withheld   pursuant to any applicable law or regulation (it being understood, that the   Executive shall be responsible for payment of all taxes in respect of the   payments and benefits provided herein). (h) In the event that the Executive   shall perform services for the Bank or any other affiliate or subsidiary of   BFC, any compensation or benefits provided to the Executive by such other   employer shall be applied to offset the obligations of BFC hereunder, it   being intended that this Agreement set forth the aggregate compensation and   benefits payable to the Executive for all services to the Company and all of   its affiliates and subsidiaries. BFC shall reimburse the Bank for   compensation or benefits paid or provided by the Bank to the Executive to the   extent attributable to the Executive's performance of services for BFC in   accordance with the applicable reimbursement policies ofBFC and the Bank.

(a) Written notice of desire   to arbitrate shall describe the factual basis of all claims asserted   ("Claim"), and shall be served on the other party as set forth in   Section 14(a) of this Agreement. If written notice of desire to arbitrate is   not served within the applicable time period, the party who failed timely to   serve notice will be deemed to have waived the right to further contest the   Claim, and will be deemed to have accepted the other party's last stated   position on the Claim.

(i) Either party, in the   party's sole discretion, may, in writing, waive, in whole or in part, the   other's failure to follow any time limit or other requirement set forth in   this Agreement, except that neither party can waive any statute of limitation   for filing the Claim.

shall set forth   the facts and reasons that support the Award. The Award shall be final and   binding on the Company and the Executive. The parties agree, however, that a   court of competent jurisdiction has the right to set aside the decision of   the arbitrator, if the arbitrator, in rendering his or her award, committed   an error oflaw that affected the remedy or damages awarded. (1) The Company   will pay all administration fees associated with the arbitration over and   above those that the Executive would have to pay in a court proceeding and   the cost of arbitrator, it being the parties' intention that the Executive   not bear any costs that the Executive would not be required to bear in a court   proceeding, to the extent that the Executive would be required to pay for   filing fees and transcript fees in a court proceeding the Executive will   remain responsible for such fees. Notwithstanding any provisions to the   contrary found in such procedures, in the event of final and binding   arbitration pursuant to this paragraph, except for the arbitrator's fees   which the Company shall be responsible for paying, each party will be   responsible for paying its own costs and attorneys' fees in connection with the   arbitration. The arbitrator shall not be authorized to award the prevailing   party costs and attorneys' fees, except as expressly provided by statute. (m)   The Company and the Executive understand that developments in case law and   legislation may affect the enforceability of arbitration provisions such as   this. It is the parties' intention and desire that this Addendum A is   compliant with current law at the time either party seeks its enforcement.   Accordingly, if any one or more of the provisions of this Addendum A is   deemed to be unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall continue in full   force and effect in accordance with Section 12(d) of this Agreement. (n) Each   of the parties acknowledges that she or it has carefully read and understands   this Addendum A and agrees to be bound by and comply with all of its terms.   Each of the parties acknowledges such party's voluntary agreement to   arbitrate claims and understands and acknowledges that by signing this   Agreement, such party is giving up the right to a jury trial and to a trial   in a court of law.
