(h) The Notes shall be unsecured senior obligations of the Company and will rank equally in right of payment with all of its other existing

 SECTION
2.02 Interest. The Notes shall bear interest at a rate equal to 7.000% per annum computed on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. Interest on the Notes will accrue from July 1, 2014 or from the most
recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for, as the case may be until the principal thereof and premium, if any, is paid or made available for payment. Interest is payable semi-annually on January 1 and
July 1 of each year (each, an “Interest Payment Date”), commencing January 1, 2015, to the Person in whose name the Notes were registered at the close of business on the immediately preceding Regular Record Date (except that
payment of interest due at the Stated Maturity will be made to the Person to whom payment of the principal of the Notes will be made). 

  
 4 

 SECTION 2.03 Payment of Principal, Interest and Other Amounts. 

(a) If any Interest Payment Date or other payment date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the payment due on that date may be made on

appointed under the Indenture to the Depositary or its nominee, as the Holder of the Global Security. Initially, the Paying Agent for the Notes will be The Bank of New York Mellon. The Company may change the Paying Agent or Registrar without prior
notice to the Holders of the Notes, and in such an event the Company may act as Paying Agent or Registrar. Payments of principal of, premium, if any, and interest on the Notes represented by a Global Security shall be made by wire transfer of
immediately available funds; provided, however, that in the case of payments of principal and premium, if any, such Global Security is first surrendered to the Paying Agent. 

SECTION 2.04 Optional Redemption. 

(a) Prior to June 1, 2019 (the “Early Call Date”), the Notes will be redeemable at the Company’s option, in whole at
any time or in part from time to time, at a Redemption Price equal to the greater of (1) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed or (2) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal of and
interest on the Notes to be redeemed that would be due after the related Redemption Date and on or prior to the Early Call Date (exclusive of any interest accrued to such Redemption Date), discounted to such Redemption Date on a semiannual basis
(assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate plus 50 basis points, plus in each case unpaid interest, if any, accrued to, but not including, such Redemption Date. Notwithstanding Section 1104 of the
Indenture, notice of the foregoing redemption need not set forth the Redemption Price but only the manner of calculation thereof. Promptly after the calculation of such Redemption Price, the Company shall give the Trustee notice thereof and the
Trustee shall not be responsible for such calculation. If the Company redeems the Notes on or after the Early Call Date, the Notes will be redeemed at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be so redeemed, plus
accrued and unpaid interest to the Redemption Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, interest will be payable to Holders of the Notes on the Regular Record Date applicable to an Interest Payment Date falling on or before a date of redemption. Notice
of any such redemption shall be given not less than 30 nor more than 60 days before the Redemption Date in the manner provided in Section 1104 of the Indenture. 

(b) In the event that following the date hereof, there occurs a change in law or regulation or interpretation thereof and as a result thereof
the Company or any agent thereof is required by law or regulation to pay any Additional Amounts pursuant to Section 1010 of the Indenture, then the Notes will be redeemable at the Company’s option, in whole but not in part, at any time
upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ notice given to the Holders as provided in Section 1104 of the Indenture at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes together with accrued interest thereon to the
Redemption Date; provided however, the adoption of the “Proposed Legislation” as defined and described in the prospectus supplement relating to the Notes dated June 26, 2014 and filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange
Commission on June 27, 2014, shall not constitute such a change in law or regulation or interpretation thereof. 

  
 5 

 SECTION 2.05 Restrictive Covenants. Section 1009 of the Indenture (under the heading
“Limitation Upon Creation of Liens on Voting Stock of Material Banking Subsidiaries”) shall not apply to the Notes. 
 SECTION
2.06 Events of Default. 
 (a) Section 501(5) of the Indenture shall not apply to the Notes. 

(b) The events described in Sections 501(6) and 501(7) of the Indenture shall constitute an Event of Default with respect to the Notes only if

or sufficiency of this Eighth Supplemental Indenture or for or in respect of the recitals contained herein, all of which are made solely by the Company.

 POPULAR,
INC. 
 7.000% SENIOR NOTE DUE 2019 

Popular, Inc., a corporation duly organized and existing under the laws of the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico (hereinafter called the
“Company”, which term includes any successor Person under the Indenture), for value received, hereby promises to pay to Cede & Co., or registered assigns, the principal sum of
                     U.S. dollars or such other principal sum as shall be set forth on the Schedule of Increases and Decreases attached hereto on
July 1, 2019 (the “Stated Maturity Date”) and to pay interest thereon, from July 1, 2014 or from the most recent Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid or duly provided for,
semi-annually on January 1 and July 1 in each year, commencing January 1, 2015 (each, an “Interest Payment Date”), and at the Maturity of the principal hereof, until the
principal hereof is paid or made available for payment. 

  
 8 

 The interest rate will be a rate equal to 7.000% per annum computed on the basis of a
360-day year consisting of twelve 30- day months. If any Interest Payment Date falls on a day that is not a Business Day, the payment of interest due on that day may be made on the next succeeding Business Day. No interest will accrue on the amount
so payable for the period from or after such Interest Payment Date to the date of that payment on the next succeeding Business Day. Notwithstanding the foregoing, interest on any principal that is overdue shall be payable on demand. 

The interest so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date will, as provided in the Indenture, be paid to
the Person in whose name this Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on the fifteenth calendar day of December or June, as applicable (whether or not a Business Day, as such term is defined on the
reverse hereof), immediately preceding such Interest Payment Date (a “Regular Record Date”) (except that payment of interest due at the Stated Maturity will be made to the Person to whom payment of the principal of this Security
will be made). Any interest so payable, but not punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date will forthwith cease to be payable to the Holder on such Regular Record Date and such Defaulted Interest either may be paid to the
Person in whose name this Security (or one or more Predecessor Securities) is registered at the close of business on a Special Record Date for the payment of such Defaulted Interest to be fixed by the Trustee, notice whereof shall be given to the
Holder of this Security not less than 10 days prior to such Special Record Date, or may be paid in any other lawful manner not inconsistent with the requirements of any securities exchange on which this Security may be listed, and upon such notice
as may be required by such exchange, all as more fully provided in the Indenture. 
 Except as provided in the next paragraph, payment of
any amount payable on this Security will be made in U.S. dollars at the office or agency of the Company maintained for that purpose in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York (or at any other office or agency maintained by the Company for
that purpose), against surrender of this Security in the case of any payment due at the Maturity of the principal hereof; provided, however, that, at the option of the Company and subject to the next paragraph, payment of interest may
be made by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto as such address shall appear in the Security Register. 
 Payment of
any amount payable on this Security will be made in U.S. dollars by wire transfer of immediately available funds to an account maintained by the payee with a bank located in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York, if (i) the principal
of this Security is at least $10,000,000 and (ii) the Holder entitled to receive such payment transmits a written request for such payment to be made in such manner to the Paying Agent at its Corporate Trust Office, Attention: Corporate Trust
Department, on or before the Regular Record Date preceding the day on which such payment is to be made; provided that, in the case of any such payment due at the Maturity of the principal hereof, this Security must be surrendered at the
office or agency of the Company maintained for that purpose in the Borough of Manhattan, The City of New York (or at any other office or agency maintained by the Company for that purpose) in time for the Paying Agent to make such payment in such
funds in accordance with its normal procedures. Any such request made with respect to any payment on this Security payable to a particular Holder will remain in effect for all later payments on this Security payable to such Holder, unless such
request is revoked on or before the Regular Record Date preceding the day on which such payment is to be made, in which case such revocation shall be effective for such 

  
 9 

 
payment and all later payments; provided that in the case of any payment due at Maturity of the principal of this Security to be effective any request for revocation must be made no later
than the 15th day prior to the Maturity of the principal of this Security. In the case of any payment of interest payable on an Interest Payment Date, such written request must be made by the Person who is the registered Holder of this Security on
the relevant Regular Record Date. The Company will pay any administrative costs imposed by banks in connection with making payments by wire transfer with respect to this Security, but any tax, assessment or other governmental charge imposed upon any
payment will be borne by the Holder of this Security and may be deducted from the payment by the Company or the Paying Agent. 

Notwithstanding any provision of this Security or the Indenture, the Company may make any and all payments of principal, premium (if any) and
interest on this Security pursuant to the applicable procedures of the Depositary for this Security as permitted in the Indenture. 

Notwithstanding any provision of this Security or the Indenture, if any amount of principal, premium (if any) or interest would otherwise be
due on this Security on a day (the “Specified Day”) that is not a Business Day, such amount may be paid or made available for payment on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if such amount were paid on
the Specified Day. No interest shall accrue as a result of the delayed payment. The provisions of this paragraph shall apply to the Security in lieu of the provisions of Section 113 of the Indenture. 

Reference is hereby made to the further provisions of this Security set forth on the reverse hereof, which further provisions shall for all
purposes have the same effect as if set forth at this place. 
 Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the
Trustee by manual signature, this Security shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.

 (Reverse of Security) 

This Security is one of a duly authorized issue of securities of the Company (herein called the “Securities”), all issued and
to be issued in one or more series under a senior indenture, dated as of February 15, 1995 (the “Original Indenture”), as supplemented by the First Supplemental Indenture, dated as of May 8, 1997, the Second Supplemental
Indenture, dated as of August 5, 1999, the Third Supplemental Indenture, dated as of September 10, 2008, the Fourth Supplemental Indenture, dated as of September 25, 2008, the Fifth Supplemental Indenture, dated as of
September 25, 2008, the Sixth Supplemental Indenture, dated as of March 15, 2010, the Seventh Supplemental Indenture, dated as of March 15, 2010 and the Eighth Supplemental Indenture, dated as of July 1, 2014 (the “Eighth
Supplemental Indenture”) (together herein, with the Original Indenture, called the “Indenture”, which term shall have the meaning assigned to it in such instrument), duly executed and delivered by the Company to The Bank of New
York Mellon (successor in interest to J.P. Morgan Trust Company, National Association), as Trustee (herein called the “Trustee”, which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), and reference is hereby made to the
Indenture for a statement of the respective rights, limitations of rights, duties and immunities thereunder of the Company, the Trustee and the Holders of the Securities and of the terms upon which the Securities are, and are to be, authenticated
and delivered. 
 This Security is one of the series designated on the face hereof, initially limited to an aggregate principal amount of
FOUR HUNDRED FIFTY MILLION U.S. dollars, which amount may be increased at the option of the Company if in the future it determines that it may wish to sell additional Securities of this series. References herein to “this series” mean the
series of securities designated on the face hereof. 
 The Securities of this series are issuable only in registered form without coupons in
“Authorized Denominations”, which term shall mean $2,000 and any integral multiples of $1,000 in excess thereof. 
 For all
purposes of this Security, the term “Business Day” means each Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday or Friday that is neither a legal holiday nor a day on which commercial banking institutions in New York City generally are
authorized or required by law, regulation or executive order to close. 
 References in this Security to “U.S. dollars”
shall mean, as of any time, the coin or currency that is then legal tender for the payment of public and private debts in the United States of America. 

Prior to June 1, 2019 (the “Early Call Date”), the Securities of this series will be redeemable at the Company’s
option, in whole at any time or in part from time to time, at a redemption price equal to the greater of (1) 100% of the principal amount of the Securities of this series to be redeemed or (2) the sum of the present values of the remaining
scheduled payments of principal of and interest on the Securities of this Series to be redeemed that would be due after the related Redemption Date and on or prior to the Early Call Date (exclusive of any interest accrued to such Redemption Date),
discounted to such Redemption Date on a semiannual basis 

  
 12 

 
(assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at the Treasury Rate (as defined in the Eighth Supplemental Indenture) plus 50 basis points, plus in each case unpaid interest, if
any, accrued to, but not including, such Redemption Date. If the Company redeems the Securities of this series on or after the Early Call Date, the Securities of this series will be redeemed at a Redemption Price equal to 100% of the principal
amount of the Securities of this series to be so redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest to the Redemption Date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, interest will be payable to Holders of the Securities of this series on the Regular Record Date
applicable to an Interest Payment Date falling on or before a date of redemption. Notice of any such redemption shall be given not less than 30 nor more than 60 days before the Redemption Date in the manner provided in Section 1104 of the
Indenture. 
 In the event that following the date of the Eighth Supplemental Indenture, there occurs a change in law or regulation or
interpretation thereof and as a result thereof the Company or any agent thereof is required by law or regulation to pay any Additional Amounts pursuant to Section 1010 of the Indenture, then the Securities of this series will be redeemable at
the Company’s option, in whole but not in part, at any time upon not less than 30 nor more than 60 days’ notice given to the Holders as provided in Section 1104 of the Indenture at the principal amount of the Securities of this series
together with accrued interest thereon to the Redemption Date; provided however, the adoption of the “Proposed Legislation” as defined and described in the prospectus supplement relating to the Securities of this series dated
June 26, 2014 and filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on June 27, 2014, shall not constitute such a change in law or regulation or interpretation thereof. 

As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Security is registrable in the
Security Register, upon surrender of this Security for registration of transfer at the office or agency of the Company in any place where the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on this Security 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 or her attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Securities of this
series and of like tenor, of Authorized Denominations and for the same aggregate principal amount, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees. 

As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Securities of this series are exchangeable for a like
aggregate principal amount of Securities of this series and of like tenor of a different Authorized Denomination, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same. 

No service charge shall be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Company may require payment of a sum sufficient to
cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith. 
 Prior to due presentment of this Security for registration of
transfer, the Company, the Trustee and any agent of the Company or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Security is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, whether or not this Security be overdue, and neither the Company nor
the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary. 

  
 13 

 If this Security is a Global Security, this Security shall be subject to the provisions of the
Indenture relating to Global Securities, including the limitations in Section 305 thereof on transfers and exchanges of Global Securities. 

Section 1009 of the Indenture shall not apply to the Securities of this series. 

Section 501(5) of the Indenture shall not apply to the Securities of this series. The events described in Sections 501(6) and 501(7) of
the Indenture shall constitute an Event of Default with respect to the Securities of this series only if they occur with respect to the Company and not with respect to any Material Banking Subsidiary. 

If an Event of Default with respect to Securities of this series shall occur and be continuing, the principal of the Securities of this series
may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture. 
 As provided in and subject to the provisions
of the Indenture, the Holder of this Security shall not have the right to institute any proceeding with respect to the Indenture or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee or for any other remedy thereunder, unless such Holder shall have
previously given the Trustee written notice of a continuing Event of Default with respect to the Securities of this series, the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount of the Securities of this series at the time Outstanding shall have made
written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in respect of such Event of Default as Trustee and offered the Trustee indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it, and the Trustee shall not have received from the Holders of a majority in
principal amount of Securities of this series at the time Outstanding a direction inconsistent with such request, and shall have failed to institute any such proceeding, for 60 days after receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity. The
foregoing shall not apply to any suit instituted by the Holder of this Security for the enforcement of any payment of principal hereof or any premium or interest hereon on or after the respective due dates expressed herein. 

No reference herein to the Indenture and no provision of this Security or of the Indenture shall alter or impair the obligation of the
Company, which is absolute and unconditional, to pay the principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on this Security at the times, place and rate, and in the coin or currency, herein prescribed. 

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 Securities of each series to be affected under the Indenture at any time by the Company and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities at the
time Outstanding of each series to be affected. The Indenture also contains provisions (i) permitting the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities at the time Outstanding of a series, on behalf of the Holders of all
Securities of such series, to waive compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture and (ii) permitting the Holders of a majority in principal amount of the Securities at the time Outstanding of any series to be affected
under the Indenture, on behalf of the Holders of all Securities of such series, to waive certain past defaults under the Indenture and their consequences. Any such consent or waiver by the Holder of this Security shall be conclusive and binding upon
such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Security and of any Security 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 Security. 

  
 14 

 This Security and the Indenture shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws
of the State of New York. 
 All terms used in this Security that are defined in the Indenture shall have the meaning assigned to
them in the Indenture.
