3.625% SENIOR NOTE DUE 2026 

RAYMOND JAMES FINANCIAL, INC., a Florida corporation (herein called the “Company,” which term includes any successor corporation
under the Indenture referred to on the reverse hereof), for value received, hereby promises to pay to Cede & Co. or its registered assigns, the principal sum of FIVE HUNDRED MILLION DOLLARS on September 15, 2026 (except to the extent
redeemed or repaid prior to that date). The Company shall pay interest on such principal amount at the rate of 3.625% per annum, until payment of such principal amount has been made or duly provided for, semi-annually in arrears on
March 15 and September 15 of each year (each, an “Interest Payment Date”). Interest shall be payable on each Interest Payment Date, commencing on March 15, 2017, and at the stated maturity or earlier redemption or repayment
(the “Maturity Date”). If the Company shall default in the payment of interest due on any Interest Payment Date, then this Note shall bear interest from the next preceding Interest Payment Date to which interest has been paid, or, if no
interest has been paid on the Notes, from July 12, 2016 (the “Original Issue Date”). 
 Interest on this Note shall accrue
from the Original Issue Date until the principal amount is paid or duly provided for. Interest (including payments for partial periods) shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. Interest payable on this Note on any

 
Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date shall include interest accrued from, and including, the preceding Interest Payment Date in respect of which interest has been paid or duly provided for
(or from, and including, the Original Issue Date, if no interest has been paid or duly provided for) to, but excluding, such Interest Payment Date or the Maturity Date, as the case may be. If the Maturity Date or any Interest Payment Date falls on a
day which is not a Business Day (as defined below), principal of or interest payable with respect to the Maturity Date or such Interest Payment Date shall be paid on the succeeding Business Day, except that, if such Business Day is in the next
succeeding calendar year, such payment shall be made on the immediately preceding Business Day, in each case with the same force and effect as if made on the Maturity Date or such Interest Payment Date, and no additional interest shall accrue as a
result of that postponement. The interest so payable, and punctually paid or duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date shall be paid to the person in whose name this Note (or one or more predecessor Notes evidencing all or a portion of the
same debt as this Note) is registered at the close of business on the regular record date for such Interest Payment Date, whether or not a Business Day. As long as this Note is in book-entry only form, the regular record date shall be the close of
business on the Business Day next preceding such Interest Payment Date. If, pursuant to the terms of the Indenture, this Note is no longer in book-entry only form, the record date shall be the close of business on March 1 and September 1
preceding an Interest Payment Date. “Business Day” means any weekday that is not a legal holiday in New York, New York or St. Petersburg, Florida and that is not a day on which banking institutions in those cities are authorized or
required by law or regulation to be closed. 
 The principal of and interest on this Note are payable in immediately available funds in such
coin or currency of the United States as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts, at the office or agency of the Company designated as provided in the Indenture. However, interest may be paid, at the option of
the Company, by check mailed to the person entitled thereto at his address last appearing on the registry books of the Company relating to the Notes. Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, payments of principal of and interest payable on the
Maturity Date shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to a designated account maintained in the United States upon (i) receipt of written notice by the Issuing and Paying Agent (as described on the reverse hereof) from the
registered holder hereof not less than one Business Day prior to the due date of such principal and (ii) presentation of this Note to the Issuing and Paying Agent, at The Bank of New York Mellon Trust Company, N.A., 101 Barclay Street, New
York, New York, 10286. Any interest not punctually paid or duly provided for shall be payable as provided in such Indenture.

called the “Trustee,” which term includes any successor trustee under the Indenture), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights thereunder of the Company,
the Trustee, and the holders of the Notes, and the terms upon which the Notes are, and are to be, authenticated and delivered. The series of which this Note is a part also is designated as the Company’s 3.625% Senior Notes due 2026 (herein
called the “Series”), initially in the principal amount of $500,000,000. The Trustee initially shall act as Security Registrar, Transfer Agent, Authenticating Agent and Issuing and Paying Agent in connection with the Notes. 

SECTION 2. No Sinking Fund. This Note is not subject to any sinking fund. 

SECTION 3. Redemption and Repayment. (a) The Company may, at its option, and subject to the terms and conditions of Article 3 of
the Indenture and Section 2.6 of the Fifth Supplemental Indenture dated as of July 12, 2016 (the “Fifth Supplemental Indenture”), redeem the Notes of this Series, in whole at any time or in part from time to time prior to the
Maturity Date, at a redemption price equal to the greater of (x) 100% of the principal amount of the Notes so redeemed, or (y) the sum of the present values of the remaining scheduled payments of principal and interest thereon (not
including any such portion of such payments of interest accrued as of the redemption date), discounted to the redemption date on a semi-annual basis (assuming a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months) at a discount rate equal to the
Treasury Rate (as defined below), plus 35 basis points, plus an amount equal to accrued and unpaid interest thereon to the redemption date. Notwithstanding the foregoing, installments of interest on the Notes that are due and payable on Interest
Payment Dates falling on or prior to a redemption date shall be payable on the Interest Payment Date to the holders of the Notes as of the close of business on the relevant record date according to the Notes and the Indenture. 

(b) Notice of any redemption shall be mailed at least 30 days but not more than 60 days before the redemption date to each holder of the Notes
to be redeemed. Unless the Company defaults in payment of the redemption price, on and after the redemption date, interest shall cease to accrue on the Notes or portions thereof called for redemption. If less than all of the Notes are to be
redeemed, the Notes shall be selected by the Trustee by a method the Trustee deems appropriate. 
 (c) Prior to publishing any notice of
redemption in connection with a redemption pursuant to Section 3(a)(ii) hereof, the Company will deliver to the Trustee a certificate signed by the Chief Financial Officer or a Senior Vice President of the Company stating that the Company is
entitled to redeem the Notes and that the conditions precedent to redemption have occurred. 

 For purposes of the above: 

“Comparable Treasury Issue” means the United States Treasury security selected by the Quotation Agents as having a maturity
comparable to the remaining term of the Notes to be redeemed that would be utilized, at the time of selection in accordance with customary financial practice, in pricing new issues of corporate debt securities of comparable maturity to the remaining
term of the Notes. 
 “Comparable Treasury Price” means, with respect to any redemption date, (1) the average of four
Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations for such redemption date, after excluding the highest and lowest such Reference Dealer Quotations, (2) if more than one but fewer than four such Reference Dealer Quotations is provided, the average of all
such quotations, or (3) if only one Reference Treasury Dealer Quotation is provided, such quotation. 
 “Quotation Agents”
means the Reference Treasury Dealers appointed by the Company. 
 “Reference Treasury Dealers” means (1) Merrill Lynch,
Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated and J.P. Morgan Securities LLC (or their affiliates that are Primary Treasury Dealers) and their respective successors; provided, however, that if any of the foregoing shall cease to be a primary U.S.
Government securities dealer in New York City (a “Primary Treasury Dealer”), the Company shall substitute therefore another Primary Treasury Dealer, and (2) any other Primary Treasury Dealers selected by the Company. 

“Reference Treasury Dealer Quotations” means, with respect to each Reference Treasury Dealer and any redemption date the average, as
determined by the Trustee, of the bid and asked prices for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed in each case as a percentage of its principal amount) quoted in writing to the Trustee by such Reference Treasury Dealer at 5:00 p.m., New York City
time, on the third Business Day preceding such redemption date. 
 “Treasury Rate” means, with respect to any redemption date, the
rate per annum equal to the semi-annual equivalent yield to maturity of the Comparable Treasury Issue, assuming a price for the Comparable Treasury Issue (expressed as a percentage of its principal amount) equal to the Comparable Treasury Price for
such redemption date. 
 SECTION 4. Defeasance. The provisions of Article 14 of the Indenture do not apply to the Notes of this
Series. 
 SECTION 5. Events of Default. If an Event of Default (as defined in the Fifth Supplemental Indenture as (i) an Event

secured or evidenced, any indebtedness of the Company or any Principal Subsidiary (as defined in the Indenture) for money borrowed, whether such indebtedness currently exists or shall be created in the future, which has occurred and has resulted in
such indebtedness becoming or being declared due and payable) shall occur with respect to the Notes, the principal of all the Notes may be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture. 

 SECTION 6. Modifications and Waivers. 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 under the Indenture at any time by the Company with the consent of the holders of not less than 66 2⁄3% in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding and all other Securities then outstanding under the Indenture and affected by such amendment and
modification. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the holders of a majority in aggregate principal amount of the Notes then outstanding and all other Securities then outstanding under the Indenture and affected thereby, on behalf of
the holders of all such Securities, to waive compliance by the Company with certain provisions of the Indenture and 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.

successor corporation, whether by virtue of any constitution, statute, or rule of law, or by the enforcement of any assessment or penalty or otherwise, all such liability being, by the acceptance hereof and as part of the consideration for issue
