AMENDED AND RESTATED CHANGE IN CONTROL COMPENSATION AGREEMENT 

BETWEEN 
 OFG BANCORP

 AND 

JOSÉ R. FERNÁNDEZ 

Agreement made as of the 28th day July, 2021, by and between OFG Bancorp, a Puerto Rico corporation and a financial holding company with
principal offices in San Juan, Puerto Rico (hereinafter referred to as “OFG”) and José R. Fernández, of legal age, married, business executive and resident of San Juan, Puerto Rico (hereinafter referred to as the
“Executive Officer”). 
 WITNESSETH: 

WHEREAS, on December 15, 2004, OFG and the Executive Officer entered into a Change In Control Compensation Agreement (the “2004
Agreement”); 
 WHEREAS, the Executive Officer is presently the President and Chief Executive Officer of OFG; 

WHEREAS, it is in the best interest of OFG to continue to promote the retention of the Executive Officer’s services on behalf of OFG by
reducing concerns that the Executive Officer may be adversely affected in the event of change in control of OFG as defined herein below; 

WHEREAS, OFG and the Executive Officer wish to amend and restate the 2004 Agreement to set forth the terms and conditions for the payment by
OFG of certain compensation to the Executive Officer in the event of a termination of Executive Officer’s employment as a result of a change in control of OFG; 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants set forth herein, OFG and the Executive Officer do hereby agree as follows: 

 

	 	1.	 TERM. 



This Agreement shall be in full force and effect so long as the Executive Officer is employed by the Company. 

 

	 	2.	 TERMINATION OF EMPLOYMENT DUE TO A CHANGE IN CONTROL 



 

	 	A.	 In the event there is a Change in Control of OFG (as defined herein below) while this Agreement is in effect
and as a result thereof or within one (1) year after the 















	 	
Change in Control, the Executive Officer’s employment with OFG is terminated by OFG or its successor in interest, the Executive Officer shall be entitled to the cash payment compensation
determined as provided in subparagraph B below. 

  

	 	B.	 The cash payment compensation shall be in an amount equal to three (3) times the sum of the Executive
Officer’s annual base salary at the time the termination of his employment occurs and the last cash bonus paid to the Executive Officer prior to the termination of his employment. 



 

	 	C.	 The cash payment compensation shall be in lieu of any other payments which the Executive Officer may be
entitled to receive by law, contract or otherwise. The cash payment compensation shall be due and payable in a lump sum to the Executive Officer on or before the thirtieth (30th) day following the termination of the Executive Officer’s
employment. The receipt of the cash payment compensation shall not affect the rights of the Executive Officer to any vested benefits or accrued compensation, including bonuses. 



 

	 	D.	 For purposes of this Agreement, a “Change in Control of OFG” shall be deemed to have occurred if any
Person or persons acting as a group within the meaning of Sections 13 (d) and 14(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), is or becomes the Beneficial Owner (as defined in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of securities of OFG representing 25% or more of either the then outstanding shares of common stocks of OFG or the combined voting power of OFG’s then
outstanding securities and if individuals who on the date hereof are members of OFG’s Board of Directors cease for any reason to constitute at least a majority thereof, unless the appointment election or nomination of each new director who was
not a director on the date hereof has been approved by at least two-thirds of the directors in office on the date hereof. 



 

	 	E.	 For purposes of this Agreement, “Person” shall have the meaning given in Section 3(a)(9) of the
Exchange Act, except that such term shall not include (i) OFG or any of its subsidiaries; (ii) an individual who on the date of this Agreement is a director or officer of OFG or any of its subsidiaries, or a beneficial owner of more than
ten percent (10%) of OFG’s outstanding securities; (iii) a trustee or other fiduciary holding securities under an employee benefit plan of OFG or any of its subsidiaries; (iv) an underwriter temporarily holding securities pursuant to
an offering of such securities; or (v) a corporation or entity owned, directly or indirectly, by the stockholders of OFG in substantially the same proportion as their ownership of stock of OFG on the date of this Agreement.



  

	 	F.	 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, any event or transaction which would otherwise constitute a
Change in Control of OFG (hereinafter referred to as a “Transaction”) shall not constitute a Change in Control of OFG for purposes of this Agreement if the Executive Officer participates as an acquirer in the Transaction or as an equity
investor or stockholder of the acquiring entity or any of its affiliates and thus, the Executive Officer shall not be entitled to receive the benefits provided for in this Agreement.
