Section 2.02  Maturity. The date upon which the Notes shall become due and payable at final maturity, together with any accrued and unpaid interest then owing, is March 15, 2026 (the “Maturity Date”).

Except as provided in Section 3.05 of the Base Indenture, the Notes will be issued only in book-entry form and will be represented by one or more Global Notes (as defined below) registered in the name of or held by The Depository Trust Company (and any successor thereto) (“DTC”) or its nominee. Principal or the Redemption Price, if any, of a Note shall be payable to the Person in whose name that Note is registered on the Maturity Date or Redemption Date, as the case may be, provided that principal of, the Redemption Price, if any, of and interest on the Notes represented by one or more Global Notes (as hereinafter defined) registered in the name of or held by DTC or its nominee will be payable in immediately available funds to DTC or its nominee, as the case may be, as the registered Holder of such Global Notes. The principal of any certificated Notes will be payable at the Place of Payment set forth below; provided, however, that payment of interest may be made at the option of the Company by check mailed to the Person entitled thereto at such address as shall appear in the Security Register or by wire transfer to an account appropriately designated by the Person entitled to payment; provided that the Paying Agent shall have received written notice of such account designation at least five Business Days prior to the date of such payment (subject to surrender of the relevant Note in the case of a payment of interest on the Maturity Date). 
The Notes shall have such other terms as are set forth in the form thereof attached hereto as Exhibit A. 
The Security Registrar and Paying Agent for the Notes shall initially be the Trustee. 
The Place of Payment for the Notes shall be an office or agency of the Company maintained for such purpose in New York, New York, which shall initially be the Corporate Trust Office located at 150 East 42nd Street, 40th Floor, New York, New York 10017. 
The Notes will be issuable and may be transferred only in denominations of $1,000 or any amount in excess thereof that is an integral multiple of $1,000. The amounts payable with respect to the Notes shall be payable in U.S. Dollars. 
Section 2.04  Global Note. The Notes shall be issued initially in the form of one or more fully registered global notes (each such global note, a “Global Note”) registered in the name of DTC or its nominee and deposited with DTC or its designated custodian or such other Depositary as any officer of the Company 

5
LEGAL02/36211044v9




may from time to time designate. Unless and until a Global Note is exchanged for Notes in certificated form, such Global Note may be transferred, in whole but not in part, and any payments on the Notes shall be made, only to DTC or a nominee of DTC, or to a successor Depositary selected or approved by the Company or to a nominee of such successor Depositary as provided in the Indenture. 
Section 2.05  Interest.
(a)     The Notes will bear interest at a fixed rate of 6.00% per annum from and including March 14, 2016 or, with respect to any Notes issued after such date, the date of issue, to, but excluding, March 15, 2021 or, if earlier, the date on which the Redemption Price of the Notes has been paid in full or a sum sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of the Notes has been made available for payment (the “Fixed Rate Period”).  Interest accrued on the Notes during the Fixed Rate Period will be payable semi-annually in arrears on March 15 and September 15 of each year (each such date a “Fixed Period Interest Payment Date”), commencing on September 15, 2016, to the Persons in whose names the relevant Notes are registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such Fixed Period Interest Payment Date, except as provided in Section 2.05(d) hereof. Interest payable on any Fixed Period Interest Payment Date or the Redemption Date (if occurring during the Fixed Rate Period), if any, with respect to the Notes shall be the amount of interest accrued from, and including, the immediately preceding Fixed Rate Interest Payment Date in respect of which interest has been paid or duly provided for (or from and including the initial original issue date of Notes of the 2026 Series, if no interest has previously been paid or duly provided for with respect to any of the Notes of the 2026 Series) to, but excluding, such Fixed Rate Interest Payment Date or Redemption Date, if any, as the case may be.
 (b)     The Notes will bear a floating interest rate from and including March 15, 2021 or, with respect to any Notes issued after such date, the date of issue, to, but excluding, the Maturity Date or the date on which the Redemption Price of the Notes has been paid in full or a sum sufficient to pay the Redemption Price of the Notes has been made available for payment (the “Floating Rate Period”).  The floating interest rate will be equal to Three-Month LIBOR for each applicable Floating Rate Interest Period plus 470.4 basis points.  Absent gross negligence or willful misconduct on its part, the Trustee shall have no liability for any calculation of any interest amount nor shall it have any liability for any information used in connection with such calculation.  Interest accrued on the Notes during the Floating Rate Period will be payable quarterly in arrears on March 15, June 15, September 15 and December 15 of each year (each such date, a “Floating Period Interest Payment Date,” and together with a Fixed Period Interest Payment Date, an “Interest Payment Date”), commencing on June 15, 2021, to the Persons in whose names the relevant Notes are registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such Floating Period Interest Payment Date, except as provided in Section 2.05(d) hereof.  Interest payable on any Floating Period Interest Payment Date, the Maturity Date or the Redemption Date (if occurring during the Floating Rate Period), if any, with respect to the Notes shall be the amount of interest accrued during the applicable Floating Rate Interest Period.
(c)     Interest will be computed on the basis of (i) a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months during the Fixed Rate Period, and (ii) a 360-day year and the number of days actually elapsed in a Floating Rate Interest Period during the Floating Rate Period. If any Fixed Rate Interest Payment Date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the Company will postpone the interest payment to the next succeeding Business Day (and no additional interest will accrue on the amount payable for the period from and after such scheduled Fixed Rate Interest Payment Date).  If any Floating Rate Interest Payment Date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the Company will postpone the interest payment to the next succeeding Business Day unless the next succeeding Business Day falls in the next calendar month, in which 

6
LEGAL02/36211044v9




case the Floating Period Interest Payment Date will instead be the immediately preceding day that is a Business Day and interest will accrue to the Floating Period Interest Payment Date as so adjusted.
(d)     In the event that the Maturity Date for any Note falls on a day that is not a Business Day, then the related payments of principal of, and interest on, the Notes may be made on the next succeeding day that is a Business Day (and no additional interest will accrue on the amount payable for the period from and after the Maturity Date). Interest due on the Maturity Date (whether or not an Interest Payment Date) of any Notes will be paid to the Person to whom principal of such Notes is payable. 
Section 2.06  Subordination. The Company, for itself, its successors and assigns, covenants and agrees, and each Holder of Notes by the Holder’s acceptance thereof, likewise covenants and agrees, that the indebtedness evidenced by the Notes and the payment of the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on each and all of the Notes is and will be expressly subordinated in right of payment to the prior payment in full of all Senior Company Indebtedness and, in certain circumstances, to Other Company Obligations, in each case, to the extent and in the manner described in Section 15.01 of the Base Indenture. 
Section 2.07  Events of Default. All of the Events of Default and Defaults set forth in Section 5.01 of the Base Indenture will apply with respect to the Notes; provided that the reference to “90 days” in Section 5.01(b)(3) of the Base Indenture shall be replaced with “60 days”.
Section 2.08  No Sinking Fund. The Notes are not entitled to the benefit of any sinking fund. 
Section 2.09  No Conversion or Exchange Rights. The Notes shall not be convertible into or exchangeable for any equity securities, other securities or other assets of the Company or any Subsidiary. 
Section 2.10  No Defeasance or Covenant Defeasance. Sections 13.02 and 13.03 of the Base Indenture shall not be applicable to the Notes. 
ARTICLE 3 
REDEMPTION OF THE NOTES 
Section 3.01  Redemption. The Notes shall not be redeemable prior to the Maturity Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, the Company may, at its option, redeem the Notes (a) in whole or in part on or after March 15, 2021 and (b) in whole, but not in part, at any time within 90 days following the occurrence of (i) a Tax Event, (ii) a Regulatory Capital Treatment Event or (iii) the Company becoming required to register as an investment company pursuant to the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Any such redemption will be at a Redemption Price equal to the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the Redemption Date fixed by the Company, provided that, for avoidance of doubt, the payment of such accrued and unpaid interest paid as a part of the Redemption Price shall satisfy in full the obligation of the Company to pay accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes redeemed from and including the most recent Interest Payment Date on which all accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes was paid or provided for through, but excluding, the Redemption Date. No such redemption of the Notes by the Company prior to the Maturity Date shall be made without the prior approval of the Federal Reserve Board if such prior approval is or will be required at the scheduled Redemption Date in order for the Notes to qualify as tier 2 capital of the Company under the rules and guidelines of the Federal Reserve Board. The provisions of Article XI of the Base Indenture shall apply to any redemption of the Notes pursuant to this Article 3.

This Note will bear interest at a fixed rate of 6.00% per annum from and including March 14, 2016 to but excluding March 15, 2021 (or earlier redemption) (the “Fixed Rate Period”).  Interest accrued on this Note during the Fixed Rate Period will be payable semi-annually in arrears on March 15 and September 15 of each year (each such date a “Fixed Period Interest Payment Date”), commencing on September 15, 2016.  
This Note will bear a floating interest rate from and including March 15, 2021 to but excluding the Maturity Date (or earlier redemption) (the “Floating Rate Period”).  The floating interest rate will be equal to Three-Month LIBOR for each applicable Floating Rate Interest Period plus 470.4 basis points.  Interest accrued on this Note during the Floating Rate Period will be payable quarterly in arrears on March 15, June 15, September 15 and December 15, of each year (each such date, a “Floating Period Interest Payment Date”, together with a Fixed Period Interest Payment Date, an “Interest Payment Date”).

If such rate is not available at such time for any reason, then the rate for that Floating Rate Interest Period will be determined by such alternate method as reasonably selected by the Company.
Interest will be computed on the basis of (i) a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months during the Fixed Rate Period, and (ii) a 360-day year and the number of days actually elapsed in a Floating Rate Interest Period during the Floating Rate Period.  The interest so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date will, as provided in such Indenture, be paid to the Person in whose name this Note, or any predecessor Note, is registered at the close of business on the Regular Record Date for such Interest Payment Date; provided that the interest due on the Maturity Date (whether or not an Interest Payment Date) of a Note of the series of Securities of which this Note is a part will be paid to the Person to whom principal of such Note is payable.

REVERSE OF NOTE 
EVERBANK FINANCAL CORP 
6.00% FIXED-TO-FLOATING RATE SUBORDINATED NOTES DUE 2026 
This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of Securities of the Company of a series designated as the “6.00% Fixed-to-Floating Rate Subordinated Notes due 2026” (herein called the “Notes”) initially issued in an aggregate principal amount of $90,000,000 on March 14, 2016. Such series of Securities has been established pursuant to, and is one of an indefinite number of series of subordinated debt securities of the Company issued or issuable under and pursuant to, the Indenture (the “Base Indenture”) dated as of June 30, 2015, between the Company and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Trustee (herein called the “Trustee,” which term includes any successor trustee), as supplemented and amended by the First Supplemental Indenture between the Company and the Trustee, dated as of June 30, 2015, thereto (the “First Supplemental Indenture”) and the Second Supplemental Indenture between the Company and the Trustee, dated as of March 14, 2016, thereto (the “Second Supplemental Indenture”  and the Base Indenture as supplemented and amended by the First Supplemental Indenture and the Second Supplemental Indenture the “Indenture”), to which Indenture and any other indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and the Persons in whose names Notes are registered on the Security Register from time to time and of the terms upon which the Notes are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. The terms, conditions and provisions of the Notes are those stated in the Indenture, those made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended, and those set forth in this Note. To the extent that the terms, conditions and provisions of this Note modify, supplement or are inconsistent with those of the Indenture, then the terms, conditions and other provisions of this Note shall govern to the extent such terms, conditions and other provisions of this Note are not inconsistent with the terms, conditions and provisions made part of the Indenture by reference to the Trust Indenture Act of 1939, as amended. 
All capitalized terms used in this Note and not defined herein that are defined in the Base Indenture or the Second Supplemental Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Base Indenture or the Second Supplemental Indenture. If any capitalized term used in this Note and defined herein is also defined in the Base Indenture or the Second Supplemental Indenture, in the event of any conflict in the meanings ascribed to such capitalized term, the definition of the capitalized term in this Note shall control. 
The indebtedness of the Company evidenced by the Notes, including the principal thereof and interest thereon, is subordinate and junior in right of payment to obligations of the Company constituting the Senior Company Indebtedness (as defined in the Base Indenture) and, in certain circumstances, to Other Company Obligations (as defined in the Base Indenture), in each case, on the terms and subject to the terms and conditions as provided and set forth in Article XV of the Base Indenture and shall rank pari passu in right of payment with all other Notes and with all other unsecured subordinated indebtedness of the Company issued under the Indenture and not by its terms subordinate and junior in right of payment to the promissory notes, bonds, debentures or other evidences of indebtedness of types that include the Notes. Each Holder of this Security, by the acceptance hereof, agrees to and shall be bound by such provisions of the Indenture and authorizes and directs the Trustee on his behalf to take such actions as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the subordination so provided. 
The Notes are intended to be treated as tier 2 capital (or its then equivalent if the Company were subject to such capital requirement) for purposes of capital adequacy guidelines of the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (or any successor regulatory authority with jurisdiction over bank holding

companies) (the “Federal Reserve Board”) as then in effect and applicable to the Company. If an Event of Default with respect to Notes shall occur and be continuing, the principal and interest owed on the Notes shall only become due and payable in accordance with the terms and conditions set forth in Article V of the Base Indenture and Section 2.07 of the Second Supplemental Indenture. Accordingly, the Holder of this Note has no right to accelerate the maturity of this Note in the event the Company fails to pay interest on any of the Notes or fails to perform any other obligations under the Notes or in the Indenture that are applicable to the Notes other than in the case of an Event of Default.
The Notes of this series shall not be redeemable prior to the Maturity Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, the Company may redeem the Notes: (a) in whole or in part on or after March 15, 2021 and (b) in whole, but not in part, at any time within 90 days following the occurrence of (i) a Tax Event, (ii) a Regulatory Capital Treatment Event or (iii) the Company becoming required to register as an investment company pursuant to the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. No such redemption of the Notes by the Company prior to the Maturity Date shall be made without the prior approval of the Federal Reserve Board if such prior approval is or will be required at the scheduled Redemption Date in order for the Notes to qualify as tier 2 capital of the Company under the rules and guidelines of the Federal Reserve Board.
The Notes of this series are not entitled to the benefit of any sinking fund. The Notes are not convertible into or exchangeable for any of the equity securities, other securities or assets of the Company or any Subsidiary.
The Base Indenture provisions relating to defeasance and covenant defeasance in Sections 13.02 and 13.03 of the Base Indenture shall not be applicable to the Notes.
The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Company and the rights of the Holders of the Notes at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Notes of each series (each series voting as a class) affected thereby and at the time Outstanding. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of specified percentages in principal amount of the Notes of a series at the time Outstanding, on behalf of the Holders of all Notes of such series, to waive certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Note shall be conclusive and binding upon such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon this Note.
As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Note is registrable in the Security Register, upon surrender of this Note for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Company in any place where the principal of and interest on this Note are payable, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Company and the Security Registrar duly executed by the Holder hereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Notes of this series, of authorized denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.
