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

 

The Board of Directors of OFG Bancorp (the “Company”) continues to broaden and strengthen its membership by selecting experienced individuals from different backgrounds. On April 24, 2013, the Company’s Board of Directors increased the number of seats on the Board from seven to nine and appointed Rafael Martínez-Margarida, a certified public accountant with over 40 years experience and former Managing Partner of PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP, San Juan, Puerto Rico, as a new member of the Board.  The appointment of Mr. Martínez-Margarida is effective immediately. Mr. Martínez-Margarida was not named to any Board committee at the time of his appointment, but it is expected that he will eventually be named to one or more committees.

 

There is no arrangement or understanding between Mr. Martínez-Margarida and any other persons pursuant to which he was appointed to the Company’s Board of Directors, nor has Mr. Martínez-Margarida entered into or amended any material plan, contract or arrangement in connection with such appointment. Excluding transactions involving the Company’s banking subsidiary, Oriental Bank, as a depositary of funds, there has been no transaction, arrangement or relationship (or series of similar transactions, arrangements or relationships) since the beginning of the Company’s last fiscal year, or any currently proposed transaction, arrangement or relationship (or series of similar transactions, arrangements or relationships), in which the Company (or any of its subsidiaries) was or is to be a participant and the amount involved exceeds $120,000, and in which Mr. Martínez-Margarida or any member of his immediate family had or will have a direct or indirect material interest.
