    SETTLEMENT AND RELEASE AGREEMENT

     

    This Settlement and Release Agreement ("Agreement") is entered into as of March 24, 2021 by
        and between Robert C. Davidson ("Davidson"), on the one hand, and Broadway Financial Corporation, a Delaware
        corporation, and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Broadway Federal Bank, f.s.b. (Broadway Financial Corporation and Broadway Federal Bank, f.s.b., being collectively referred to herein as "Broadway"), on the other hand, on the basis
        of the following facts:

     

    A.  Broadway has maintained a director emeritus policy for many years, the most recent statement of the terms of which is set forth in the
        Director Emeritus Policy (the "Emeritus Policy") that was approved by the boards of directors of Broadway (collectively, the "Board") on April 29, 2020 and which is applicable only to those persons who were directors of Broadway of
        record as of or prior to January 1, 2019 and who are appointed as Directors Emeritus by the Board based on the length and quality of their service on the Board as provided in the Emeritus Policy.

     

    B.  Broadway Financial Corporation has entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with CFBanc Corporation ("CFBanc"), dated as of
        August 25, 2020, pursuant to which CFBanc will be merged with and into Broadway Financial Corporation (the "Merger"), with five directors from CFBanc and four directors from Broadway to serve on the board of directors of Broadway Financial
        Corporation in its capacity as the Surviving Entity in such merger with CFBanc. Capitalized terms defined in the Agreement and Plan of Merger are used in this Agreement as so defined.

     

    C.  CFBanc does not have a policy similar to the Emeritus Policy and has firmly indicated that it does not desire to establish such a policy,
        and has further indicated its strong desire that all directors of the Surviving Corporation have equal rights of compensation relating to their service as directors.

     

    D.  The Board has determined that it is in the best interests of Broadway and their stockholders that the Emeritus Policy be terminated in
        connection with the completion of the Merger so as to remove any potential division or disagreement that might arise among the directors of the Surviving Entity if the Emeritus Program were continued solely with respect to the pre-merger directors
        of the Corporation.

     

    E.  Davidson has been asked, and has agreed, to continue his service as a director of the Surviving Entity and its subsidiary bank following
        the completion of the Merger rather than retire from the Board at the Effective Time of the Merger and become eligible at that time to be for considered for appointment by the Board to the status of Director Emeritus pursuant to the Emeritus
        Policy. Having so agreed, Davidson acknowledges that he will not be eligible for designation as a Director Emeritus pursuant to the Emeritus Policy at any time hereafter, regardless of the length of his service as a director of the Surviving Entity
        and its subsidiary bank.

        confirmed by Davidson, in consideration of the execution and delivery by Davidson of this Settlement and Release Agreement.

     

    2.  Davidson hereby waives, relinquishes and releases, and agrees not to maintain any legal or equitable action to obtain or otherwise pursue,
        any and all claims, whether now known to him or unknown, that he may have or may hereafter claim to have relating to or arising out of the Emeritus Policy, including, without limitation, any claim of entitlement to payments or other benefits
        arising out of or relating to the Emeritus Policy.

     

    3.  This Agreement sets forth the entire agreement and understanding of the parties hereto with respect to the termination of the Emeritus Plan
        and supersedes any prior or contemporaneous agreements or understandings relating to such subject matter.

     

    4.  This Agreement, and all claims or causes of action (whether in contract, in tort or pursuant to statute) that may be based upon, arise out
        of or relate to this Agreement, or the negotiation, execution or performance hereof shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to the conflicts of laws principles thereof, except
        to the extent, if any, that such law is preempted by applicable federal laws of the United States.

THE STOCKHOLDERS LISTED HEREIN 

Dated as of March 29, 2021 
 THIS
STOCK REPURCHASE AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made and entered into as of March 29, 2021 by and between Open Lending Corporation, a Delaware corporation (“Open Lending”) and the
stockholders of Open Lending set forth on Exhibit A attached hereto (each a “Seller” and collectively, the “Sellers”). 

WHEREAS, Open Lending and Sellers propose to enter into a transaction whereby the Sellers shall sell to Open Lending, and Open Lending shall purchase from the
Sellers, shares of Open Lending’s Common Stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”) as set forth in this Agreement (the “Repurchase Transaction”); and 

WHEREAS, certain stockholders of Open Lending have proposed to sell through an underwritten public offering (the “Secondary Offering”)
shares of Open Lending’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share. 
 NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the foregoing, of the mutual promises herein
set forth, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, it is hereby agreed as follows: 

ARTICLE I 

REPURCHASE 
 Section 1.1
Repurchase of Common Stock. 
 (a) Under the terms and subject to the conditions hereof and in reliance upon the representations, warranties and
agreements contained herein, at the Closing (as defined below), the Sellers shall sell to Open Lending such aggregate number of shares of Common Stock (such aggregate amount, the “Repurchased Shares”) equal to
$20.0 million (the “Purchase Price”), divided by the price at which the shares of Common Stock are sold to the public in the Secondary Offering, less the underwriting discount. 

Section 1.2 Closing . The closing (the “Closing”) of the purchase of the Seller Shares shall be held at the offices of
Open Lending immediately subsequent to the satisfaction or waiver of the conditions set forth in Articles V and VI herein (the “Closing Date”), by telephonic meeting on such date or at such other time, date or place as Seller
and Open Lending may agree in writing. 
 Section 1.3 Deliveries. 

(a) At the Closing, each Seller shall deliver or cause to be delivered to Open Lending (collectively, the “Seller Closing
Deliveries”): 

	 	(i)	 such Sellers’ pro rata portion (as determined by such Seller’s participation in the Secondary
Offering) of the Repurchase Shares (such pro rata portion of the Repurchase Shares, the “Seller Shares”) to Open Lending require, free and clear of any Lien (as defined below); and 

 

	 	(ii)	 a completed and executed original copy of Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) Form W-9 or IRS Form W-8BEN, as applicable. 

 (b) At the Closing,
Open Lending shall deliver to each Seller their pro rata portion of the Purchase Price (such pro rata portion, the “Seller’s Purchase Price”), payable by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account or
accounts that such Seller shall designate in writing at least two business days prior to the Closing Date. 
 ARTICLE II 

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF SELLERS 

Each Seller hereby represents and warrants to Open Lending as follows: 

Section 2.1 Title to Seller Shares . As of the Closing, such Seller shall own and shall deliver such Seller’s Seller Shares, free and clear of
any and all option, call, contract, commitment, mortgage, pledge, security interest, encumbrance, lien, tax, claim or charge of any kind or right of others of whatever nature, other than any arising out of, resulting from or in connection with any
agreement, arrangement or understanding between such Seller or any of its subsidiaries and Open Lending (collectively, a “Lien”). 

Section 2.2 Authority Relative to this Agreement . Such Seller has the requisite power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and to
consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. To the extent such Seller is an entity, the execution and delivery of this Agreement by such Seller and the consummation by Seller of the transactions contemplated hereby, including the sale of the
such Seller’s Seller Shares, has been duly authorized by the board of directors (or similar governing body) of such Seller and no other corporate, stockholder, member or similar proceedings on the part of such Seller are necessary to authorize
this Agreement or for such Seller to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. This Agreement has been duly and validly executed and delivered by such Seller and constitutes the valid and binding obligations of such Seller, enforceable
against such Seller in accordance with its terms, except as may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or other equitable remedies. 
 Section 2.3
Approvals. No material consent, approval, authorization or order of, or registration, qualification or filing with, any court, regulatory authority, governmental body or any other third party is required to be obtained or made by such Seller
for the execution, delivery or performance by such Seller of this Agreement or the consummation by such Seller of the transactions contemplated hereby. 

Section 2.4 Receipt of Information. Each Seller has received all the information it considers necessary or appropriate for deciding whether to
dispose of such Seller’s Seller Shares. Such Seller had an opportunity to ask questions and receive answers from Open Lending regarding the terms and conditions of Open Lending’s purchase of such Seller’s Seller Shares and the
business and financial condition of Open Lending and to obtain additional information (to the extent Open Lending possessed such information or could acquire it without unreasonable effort or expense) necessary to verify the accuracy of any
information furnished to it or to which it had access. Such Seller has not received, or relying on, any representations or warranties from Open Lending, other than as provided herein. 

 ARTICLE III 

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF OPEN LENDING 

Open Lending hereby represents and warrants to Sellers as follows: 

Section 3.1 Authority Relative to this Agreement. Open Lending has the requisite corporate power and authority to execute and deliver this
Agreement and consummate the transactions contemplated hereby. The execution and delivery of this Agreement by Open Lending, and the consummation by Open Lending of the transactions contemplated hereby, including the purchase of the Seller Shares

transactions contemplated hereby. This Agreement has been duly and validly executed and delivered by Open Lending and constitutes the valid and binding obligations of Open Lending, enforceable against Open Lending in accordance with its terms,
except as may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or other equitable remedies. 
 Section 3.2 Approvals. No material consent, approval,
authorization or order of, or registration, qualification or filing with, any court, regulatory authority, governmental body or any other third party is required to be obtained or made by Open Lending for the execution, delivery or performance by
Open Lending of this Agreement or the consummation by Open Lending of the transactions contemplated hereby. 
 Section 3.3 Funds. Open Lending

Section 4.2 Public Announcements. Except as may be required by applicable law, neither party hereto shall make any public announcements or
otherwise communicate with any news media with respect to this Agreement or any of the transactions contemplated hereby (a “Public Announcement”), without prior consultation with the other parties as to the timing and contents of any such
announcement or communications; provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall prevent any party from promptly making any filings with any governmental entity or disclosures with the stock exchange, if any, on which such party’s capital
stock is listed, as may, in its judgment, be required in connection with the execution and delivery of this Agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby. 

Section 4.3 Withholding. Open Lending shall pay the Seller’s Purchase Price to each Seller, free and clear of, and without reduction or
withholding for, any taxes. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each Seller shall indemnify Open Lending against any and all taxes (and any and all related losses, claims, liabilities, penalties, interest, and expenses) incurred by or asserted against
Open Lending by the IRS or any other governmental authority as a result of Open Lending’s failure to deduct and withhold the proper amount of tax from the Seller’s Purchase Price for any reason, including, without limitation, the treatment

 ARTICLE VII 

MISCELLANEOUS 
 Section 7.1
Termination. This Agreement may be terminated prior to the Closing as follows: (i) at any time on or prior to the Closing, by mutual written consent of each Seller and Open Lending or (ii) at the election of the Sellers or Open
Lending by written notice to the other party hereto after 5:00 p.m., New York time, on April 15, 2021, if the Closing shall not have occurred, unless such date is extended by the mutual written consent of the Sellers and Open Lending;
provided, however, that the right to terminate this Agreement pursuant to this clause (ii) shall not be available to a party whose failure or whose subsidiaries’ or affiliate’s failure to perform or observe in any material
respect any of its obligations under this Agreement in any manner shall have been the principal cause of or resulted in the failure of the Closing to occur on or before such date. 

Section 7.2 Savings Clause. No provision of this Agreement shall be construed to require any party or its affiliates to take any action that would
violate any applicable law (whether statutory or common), rule or regulation. 
 Section 7.3 Amendment and Waiver. This Agreement may not be
amended except by an instrument in writing signed on behalf of each of the parties hereto. The failure of any party to enforce any of the provisions of this Agreement shall in no way be construed as a waiver of such provisions and shall not affect
the right of such party thereafter to enforce each and every provision of this Agreement in accordance with its terms. 
 Section 7.4
Severability. The provisions of this Agreement shall be deemed severable and the invalidity or unenforceability of any provision shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the other provisions hereof. Any term or provision of this
Agreement which is invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to that jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such invalidity or unenforceability without rendering invalid or unenforceable the remaining terms and provisions of this
Agreement in any other jurisdiction and a suitable and equitable provision shall be substituted therefor in order to carry out, so far as may be valid and enforceable, the intent and purpose of such invalid or unenforceable provision. 

Section 7.5 Entire Agreement. Except as otherwise expressly set forth herein, this Agreement, together with the several agreements and other
documents and instruments referred to herein or therein or annexed hereto and executed contemporaneously herewith, embody the complete agreement and understanding among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede and
preempt any prior understandings, agreements or representations by or among the parties, written or oral, that may have related to the subject matter hereof in any way. 

 Section 7.6 Successors and Assigns. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights or obligations
of any party under this Agreement shall be assigned, in whole or in part by any party without the prior written consent of the other parties. 

Section 7.7 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in separate counterparts each of which shall be an original and all of which taken
together shall constitute one and the same agreement. 
 Section 7.8 Remedies. 

(a) Each party hereto acknowledges that monetary damages would not be an adequate remedy in the event that each and every one of the covenants or agreements
in this Agreement are not performed in accordance with their terms, and it is therefore agreed that, in addition to and without limiting any other remedy or right it may have, the non-breaching party shall
have the right to an injunction, temporary restraining order or other equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction enjoining any such breach and enforcing specifically each and every one of the terms and provisions hereof. Each party
hereto agrees not to oppose the granting of such relief in the event a court determines that such a breach has occurred, and to waive any requirement for the securing or posting of any bond in connection with such remedy. 

(b) All rights, powers and remedies provided under this Agreement or otherwise available in respect hereof at law or in equity shall be cumulative and not
alternative, and the exercise or beginning of the exercise of any thereof by any party shall not preclude the simultaneous or later exercise of any other such right, power or remedy by such party. 

Section 7.9 Notices. All notices and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed given if delivered personally, sent by
electronic mail, telecopied (upon telephonic confirmation of receipt), on the first business day following the date of dispatch if delivered by a recognized next day courier service, or on the third business day following the date of mailing if
delivered by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid. All notices hereunder shall be delivered as set forth below, or pursuant to such other instructions as may be designated in writing by the party to receive such

Section 7.10 Governing Law; Consent to Jurisdiction. 

(a) This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware without giving effect to the principles of
conflicts of law. Each of the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally consents to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or any court of the United States located in the State of
Delaware, for any action, proceeding or investigation in any court or before any governmental authority (“Litigation”) arising out of or relating to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby. Each of the parties
hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waives, and agrees not to assert, by way of motion, as a defense, counterclaim or otherwise, in any such Litigation, the defense of sovereign immunity, any claim that it is not personally subject to the
jurisdiction of the aforesaid courts for any reason other than the failure to serve process in accordance with this Section 7.10, that it or its property is exempt or immune from jurisdiction of any such court or from any legal process
commenced in such courts (whether through service of notice, attachment prior to judgment, attachment in aid of execution of judgment, execution of judgment or otherwise), and to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, that the Litigation in
any such court is brought in an inconvenient forum, that the venue of such Litigation is improper, or that this Agreement, or the subject matter hereof, may not be enforced in or by such courts and further irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent
permitted by applicable law, the benefit of any defense that would hinder, fetter or delay the levy, execution or collection of any amount to which the party is entitled pursuant to the final judgment of any court having jurisdiction. Each of the
parties irrevocably and unconditionally waives, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, any and all rights to trial by jury in connection with any Litigation arising out of or relating to this Agreement or the transactions contemplated
hereby. 
 (b) Each of the parties expressly acknowledges that the foregoing waiver is intended to be irrevocable under the laws of the State of Delaware
and of the United States of America; provided that consent by Sellers and Open Lending to jurisdiction and service contained in this Section 7.10 is solely for the purpose referred to in this Section 7.10 and shall not be deemed to
be a general submission to said courts or in the State of Delaware other than for such purpose. 
 Section 7.11 Interpretation. The headings
contained in this Agreement are for reference purposes only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. Whenever the words “include”, “includes” or “including” are used in this
Agreement, they shall be deemed to be followed by the words “without limitation”.
