As previously disclosed, the new agreement includes a 10-year extension of the Merchant Acquiring Independent Sales Organization Agreement (the \u201cISO Agreement\u201d), a 5-year extension of the ATH Network Participation Agreement and a 3-year extension of the Master Services Agreement (&#8220;MSA&#8221;).

Modifications to the MSA include the elimination of the exclusivity requirement, the inclusion of annual MSA minimums through 2028, a 10% discount on certain MSA services beginning in October 2025, and adjustments to the previous CPI pricing escalator clause. The agreement also calls for the sale to Popular of certain assets in exchange for approximately 4.6 million shares of Popular owned Evertec stock. In addition, subsequent to the closing of the Popular transaction, Popular has agreed to take certain actions to ensure that Evertec is no longer deemed a \u201csubsidiary\u201d of Popular for purposes of the Bank Holding Company Act, including reducing Popular&#8217;s voting interest in Evertec to 4.5% over the next three months through either the sale of shares or conversion to non-voting preferred shares.<\/p>\n<p>Goldman Sachs &amp; Co.
