Banc of California, Inc. (BANC) Information Request Form

Levi & Korsinsky, LLP announces the commencement of a class action lawsuit in the USDC for the Central District of California on behalf of shareholders of Banc of California, Inc. (NYSE: BANC) who purchased shares between
August 7, 2015 and January 23, 2017.

The complaint alleges that throughout the Class Period, Defendants made materially false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose material adverse facts, including: (1) that the Company had extensive ties to an alleged “fraudster” named Jason Galanis (“Galanis”); (2) that, given Galanis’ history, the Company’s ties to Galanis created substantial regulatory risk; (3) that revelation of Galanis’ ties to the Company could cause a substantial decline in the market price of the Company’s securities; (4) that the Company allegedly misled investors concerning the Company’s connections with Galanis; and (5) that, as a result of the foregoing, Defendants’ positive statements about Banc of California’s business, operations, and prospects, were false and misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis.
