EXPLANATORY NOTE

This Current Report on Form 8-K/A (this “Amendment No. 1”) amends and supplements the Current Report on Form 8-K filed by EVERTEC, Inc. (the “Company”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission on February 18, 2015 (the “Original Form 8-K”), to disclose the compensation payable to Brian J. Smith in connection with his appointment to the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) pursuant to the Company’s recently revised independent director compensation policy.

Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

(d)

On February 13, 2015, the Board appointed Mr. Smith to the Board effectively immediately. Mr. Smith’s appointment to the Board was reported under Item 5.02 of the Original Form 8-K; such disclosure is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. Although at the time of the filing of the Original Form 8-K the amount of Mr. Smith’s annual compensation had been determined and was described in the Original Form 8-K, certain details concerning the form of the compensation had not yet been determined or have since changed.

On February 25, 2015, upon the recommendations of the Compensation Committee of the Board (the “Compensation Committee”), the Board approved a revised independent director compensation policy that modified the form of compensation payable to independent directors, including Mr. Smith. Although the revised policy does not modify the amount of compensation payable to independent directors, the revised policy changes the form of equity compensation to independent directors from restricted stock units to restricted stock. The revised policy also establishes a default allocation of the equity and cash components of independent directors’ annual compensation at 50% each for independent directors other than the Chairman of the Board, and at 62.5% and 37.5%, respectively, for the Chairman of the Board. The revised policy allows each independent director to elect to accept all or a portion of his or her default cash component in the form of restricted stock in lieu of cash. Restricted stock granted pursuant to the revised policy will vest on the day preceding the Company’s annual meeting of stockholders that immediately follows the date of grant or upon the independent director’s earlier death or disability, provided in each case that the independent director is then providing services to the Company.

On March 6, 2015, the Compensation Committee granted Mr. Smith’s restricted stock award consistent with the foregoing description.
