The $11.1 million difference between the book value of Series A Preferred Stock and related warrants versus the redemption cost increased Additional Paid in Capital. Also reflected in September 8, 2011 Successor Company was $5.1 million of the Company’s underwriting costs associated with the NAFH Investment.
In addition, the acquisition method of accounting requires the reclassification of retained earnings from periods prior to the acquisition to be recognized as common share equity and the elimination of any accumulated other comprehensive income or loss and surplus within the Company’s Shareholders’ Equity section of the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements. Also impacting the mix but not the total amount of shareholders’ equity, was the reduction in the par value of the Company’s common stock from $2 to $0.01 per share.

NOTE 1 — PRINCIPLESBASIS OF CONSOLIDATIONPRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Green Bankshares, Inc. (the “Company”) and its wholly owned subsidiary, GreenBank (the “Bank”), have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X as promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011periods presented are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2011. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010. Certain amounts from prior period financial statements have been reclassified
The Company is a bank holding company headquartered in Greeneville, Tennessee. Prior to conformSeptember 7, 2011, the Company conducted its business primarily through its wholly-owned subsidiary, GreenBank (together with its successor entities following the Merger (as defined below), the “Bank”). As described in additional detail in Note 2, on September 7, 2011 (the “Merger Date”), the Bank merged (the “Merger”) with and into Capital Bank, National Association (“Capital Bank, NA”), a subsidiary of our majority shareholder, North American Financial Holdings, Inc. (“NAFH”) in an all-stock transaction, with Capital Bank, NA as the surviving entity. The Company’s approximately 34% ownership interest in Capital Bank, NA is recorded as an equity-method investment in that entity. As of September 30, 2011, the Company’s investment in Capital Bank, NA totaled $312,432 which reflected the Company’s pro rata ownership of Capital Bank, NA’s total shareholders’ equity. In periods subsequent to the current year’s presentation.Merger Date, the Company will adjust this equity investment balance based on its equity in Capital Bank, NA’s net income and comprehensive income. In connection with the Merger, assets and liabilities of the Bank were de-consolidated from the Company’s balance sheet resulting in a significant decrease in the total assets and total liabilities of the Company in the third quarter of 2011. Accordingly, as of September 30, 2011, no investments, loans or deposits are reported on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet. Subsequent to the Merger Date, the Company’s significant assets and liabilities are comprised of cash, its equity method investment in Capital Bank, NA, deferred income tax accounts and trust preferred securities. The Company’s operating results subsequent to the Merger Date include the Company’s proportionate share of equity method income from Capital Bank, NA and interest expense resulting from the outstanding trust preferred securities issued by the Company. Unless otherwise specified, this report describes Green Bankshares, Inc. and its subsidiaries including GreenBank through the Merger Date, and subsequent to that date, includes only Green Bankshares, Inc, and its equity method investment in Capital Bank, NA.
On September 7, 2011, pursuant to the NAFH Investment, GreenBank, the Company’s previously wholly-owned subsidiary, was merged with and into Capital Bank, NA., a subsidiary of NAFH, with Capital Bank, NA as the surviving entity. As a result of the Merger, the Company received shares of Capital Bank, NA equating to an approximately 34% ownership interest in Capital Bank, NA. As the Company is a majority owned subsidiary of NAFH, the Merger was a restructuring transaction between commonly-controlled entities. The difference between the amount of the Company’s initial equity method investment in Capital Bank, NA., subsequent to the Merger, and the Company’s investment in GreenBank, immediately preceding the Merger, was accounted for as an increase in additional paid in capital of $15,960. As the Company began to account for its investment in the combined entity under the equity method, the change in the balance of the Company’s equity method investment between September 7, 2011 and September 30, 2011 resulting from the Company’s proportional share of earnings of $1,134 was recorded as “Equity method income in Capital Bank, NA,” in the Company’s Consolidated Statement of Income for the period. At September 30, 2011, the Company’s net investment of $312,432 in Capital Bank, NA, was recorded in the Consolidated Balance Sheet as “Investment in Capital Bank, NA.”
As the period from September 8, 2011 through September 30, 2011 (the “Successor Period”) is not a normal interim financial reporting period (ie. a calendar month, quarter or year) for Capital Bank, NA, condensed income statement information for the Company’s equity method investee, Capital Bank, NA was omitted from this Form 10-Q as management believes the inclusion herein would not be meaningful. Capital Bank, NA’s financial reporting process involves significant accounting estimates which are performed and updated only monthly or quarterly and no pro-ration or other cut-off was performed as of the Merger date by Capital Bank, NA. For this reason, the Company’s equity in income from Capital Bank, NA for the Successor Period was computed by multiplying the Company’s proportional ownership interest in Capital Bank, NA by the net income of Capital Bank, NA, during the month of September. The proportional ownership of each shareholder of Capital Bank, NA was computed by dividing the weighted average shares owned by each investor by the total weighted average shares of Capital Bank, NA outstanding during the month of September. In future periods, condensed income statement information for Capital Bank, NA will be disclosed for each quarterly reporting period. Beginning in 2012, the quarterly disclosure will be supplemented with the presentation of Capital Bank, NA’s condensed income statement for the calendar year to date.
As used in this document, the terms “we,” “us,” “our,” “Green Bankshares,” and “Company” mean Green Bankshares, Inc. and its subsidiaries (unless the context indicates another meaning) and the term “Bank” means GreenBank, and, after the Merger, its successor entities.

Green Bankshares and Subsidiaries
Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Amounts in thousands except share and per share data)
Acquisition accounting requires that the assets purchased, the liabilities assumed, and non-controlling interests all be reported in the acquirer’s financial statements at their fair value, with any excess of purchase consideration over the net assets being reported as goodwill. Application of the push down method of accounting requires that the valuation of assets, liabilities, and non-controlling interests be recorded in the acquiree’s records as well. Accordingly, the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements and transactional records prior to the NAFH Investment reflect the historical accounting basis of assets and liabilities and are labeled “Predecessor Company,” while such records subsequent to the NAFH Investment are labeled “Successor Company” and reflect the push down basis of accounting for the new fair values in the Company’s financial statements. This change in accounting basis is represented in the Consolidated Financial Statements by a vertical black line which appears between the columns entitled “Predecessor Company” and “Successor Company” on the statements and in the relevant notes. The black line signifies that the amounts shown for the periods prior to and subsequent to the NAFH Investment are not comparable.
In addition to the new accounting basis established for assets, liabilities and noncontrolling interests, acquisition accounting also requires the reclassification of any retained earnings from periods prior to the acquisition to be recognized as common share equity and the elimination of any accumulated other comprehensive income or loss and surplus within the Company’s Shareholders’ Equity section of the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements. Accordingly, retained earnings and accumulated other comprehensive income at September 30, 2011 represents only the results of operations subsequent to September 7, 2011, the date of the NAFH Investment.
NOTE 2 — ACQUISITION
On September 7, 2011, the Company completed the issuance and sale of 119.9 million shares of its common stock to NAFH for gross consideration of $217,019 less $750 thousand of NAFH’s expenses which were reimbursed by the Company. The total consideration was comprised of $147.6 million of cash and the Company’s Series A Preferred Stock and warrant to purchase shares of common stock issued by the Company to the U.S. Treasury in connection with the Troubled Asset Relief Program (“TARP”) which were repurchased by NAFH and contributed to the Company at fair value of $68.7 million as a component of the NAFH investment consideration. Subsequently the Company cancelled the Series A Preferred Stock. In connection with the NAFH Investment, each Company shareholder as of September 6, 2011 received one contingent value right per share (“CVR”) that entitles the holder to receive up to $0.75 in cash per CVR at the end of a five-year period based on the credit performance of GreenBank’s then existing loan portfolio as of May 5, 2011.
As a result of the NAFH Investment, NAFH now owns approximately 90% of the voting securities of the Company and followed the acquisition method of accounting and applied “acquisition accounting.” Acquisition accounting requires that the assets purchased, the liabilities assumed, and non-controlling interests all be reported in the acquirer’s financial statements at their fair value, with any excess of purchase consideration over the net assets being reported as goodwill. As part of the valuation, intangible assets were identified and a fair value was determined as required by the accounting guidance for business combinations. Accounting guidance also allows the application of “push down accounting,” whereby the adjustments of assets and liabilities to fair value and the resultant goodwill are shown in the financial statements of the acquiree.
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The methodology used to obtain the fair values to apply acquisition accounting is described in Note 7 “Fair Value Disclosures” of these Consolidated Financial Statements.
The following table summarizes the NAFH Investment and Company’s opening balance sheet as of September 8, 2011 adjusted to fair value:

(Amounts in thousands except share and per share data)
The above estimated fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed are based on the information that was available to make preliminary estimates of the fair value. While the Company believes that information provides a reasonable basis for estimating the fair values, it expects to obtain additional information and evidence during the measurement period (not to exceed one year from the acquisition date) that may result in changes to the estimated fair value amounts. Thus, the provisional measurements of fair value reflected are subject to change as other confirming events occur including the receipt and finalization of updated appraisals. Such changes could be significant. The Company expects to finalize the valuation and complete the purchase price allocation as soon as practicable but no later than one year from the acquisition date. Subsequent adjustments, if any, will be retrospectively reflected in future filings.
A summary and description of the assets, liabilities and non-controlling interests fair valued in conjunction with applying the acquisition method of accounting is as follows:
Cash and Cash Equivalents
The cash and cash equivalents, which include proceeds from the NAFH Investment, held at acquisition date approximated fair value on that date and did not require a fair value adjustment.
Investment Securities
Investment securities are reported at fair value at acquisition date. To account for the NAFH Investment, the difference between the fair value and par value became the new premium or discount for each security held by the Company. The fair value of investment securities is primarily based on values obtained from third parties pricing models which are based on recent trading activity for the same or similar securities.
The fair value of the investment securities is primarily based on values obtained from third parties that are based on recent activity for the same or similar securities. Immediately before the acquisition, the investment portfolio had an amortized cost of $174,841 and was in a net unrealized loss position of $392. The difference between the fair value and the current par value was recorded as the new premium or discount on a security by security basis.
Loans
All loans in the loan portfolio were adjusted to estimated fair value at the NAFH Investment date. Upon analyzing estimated credit losses as well as evaluating differences between contractual interest rates and market interest rates at acquisition, the Company recorded a loan fair value discount of $165,708. All acquired loans were considered to be acquired impaired loans with the exception of certain consumer revolving lines of credit. Subsequent to the NAFH Investment, acquired impaired loans will be accounted for as described in Critical Accounting Policies.
Premises and Equipment
Premises and equipment was adjusted to report these assets at their acquisition date fair values. To account for the NAFH Investment in premises and equipment, the difference between the fair value and book value was recorded by the Company for each asset. The total adjustment to premises and equipment resulted in a net write down of $4,051. The estimates of fair value of premises and equipment were primarily based on values obtained from third parties including property appraisers and other asset valuation providers whose methods, models and assumptions were reviewed and accepted by management after being deemed reasonable and consistent with industry practice.

(Amounts in thousands except share and per share data)
Goodwill
Goodwill represents the excess of purchase price over the fair value of acquired net assets. This acquisition was nontaxable and, as a result, there is no tax basis in the resulting goodwill. Accordingly, none of the goodwill associated with the acquisition is deductible for tax purposes.
Core Deposit Intangible
Other than goodwill, the only other intangible asset identified as part of the valuation of the Company was the Core Deposit Intangible (“CDI”) which is amortized as noninterest expense over its estimated useful life. The estimated fair value of the CDI at the acquisition date was $11,900. This amount represents the present value of the difference between a market participant’s cost of obtaining alternative funds and the cost to maintain the acquired deposit base. The present value is calculated over the estimated life of the acquired deposit base and will be amortized on a straight line basis over an eight year period. Deposit accounts evaluated for the CDI were demand deposit accounts, money market accounts and savings accounts.
Deferred Tax Asset
As a result of the application of the acquisition method of accounting a net deferred tax asset of $53,407 was recognized at acquisition date. The net deferred tax asset is primarily related to the recognition of differences between certain tax and book bases of assets and liabilities related to the acquisition method of accounting, including fair value adjustments discussed elsewhere in this section, along with federal and state net operating losses that the Company determined to be realizable as of the acquisition date. A valuation allowance is recorded for deferred tax assets, including net operating losses, if the Company determines that it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized.
Other Assets
The most significant other assets which are reported at fair value in the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements at each reporting period and that were reviewed for valuation adjustments as part of the acquisition accounting were $71,914 in repossessed assets and other owned real estate, the $32,247 cash surrender value of bank owned life insurance policies, $12,734 in FHLB investment stock and $5,529 in prepaid FDIC assessments. It was deemed not practicable to determine the fair value of FHLB due to restrictions placed on their transferability.
Various other assets held by the Company did not have a fair value adjustment as part of acquisition accounting since their carrying value approximated fair value such as accrued interest receivable.
Deposits
Time deposits were not included in the CDI valuation. Instead, a separate valuation of term deposit liabilities was conducted due to the contractual time frame associated with these liabilities. Term deposits evaluated for acquisition accounting consisted of certificates of deposit (“CDs”). The fair value of these deposits was determined by first stratifying the deposit pool by maturity and calculating the interest rate for each maturity period. Then cash flows were projected by period and discounted to present value using current market interest rates.
The outstanding balance of CDs at acquisition date was $588,799, and the estimated fair value premium totaled $9,234. The Company will amortize these premiums into income as a reduction of interest expense on a level-yield basis over the weighted average term.
Long-term and Other Borrowings
Included in borrowings are FHLB advances and repurchase agreements. Fair values for FHLB advances were estimated by developing cash flow estimates for each of these debt instruments based on scheduled principal and interest payments, current market interest rates, and prepayment penalties. Once the cash flows were determined, a market rate for comparable debt was used to discount the cash flows to the present value. The outstanding balance of FHLB advances at acquisition date was $170,398 and the estimated fair value premium totals $12,600. The Company will amortize the premium into income as reductions of interest expense on a level-yield basis over the contractual term of each debt instrument. No adjustment was made to overnight repurchase agreements of $15,388 for which carrying value approximated fair value.

Included in subordinated debt are variable rate trust preferred securities issued by the Company. Fair values for the trust preferred securities were estimated by developing cash flow estimates for each of these debt instruments based on scheduled principal and interest payments and current market interest rates. Once the cash flows were determined, a market rate for comparable subordinated debt was used to discount the cash flows to the present value. The outstanding balance of trust preferred securities and subordinated debt at acquisition date was $88,662 and the estimated fair value discount on each totaled $45,102. The Company will accrete the discount as an increase to interest expense on a level-yield basis over the contractual term of each debt instrument.
Contingent Value Rights
In connection with the NAFH Investment, each existing shareholder as of September 6, 2011 received one contingent value right per share that entitles the holder to receive up to $0.75 in cash per CVR at the end of a five-year period based on the credit performance of GreenBanks’s existing loan portfolio as of May 5, 2011. The Company estimated the fair value of these CVRs at $520 which was based on its estimate of credit losses on the existing loan portfolio over the five-year life of these instruments. These CVRs were recorded at fair value in other liabilities in acquisition accounting.
Non-controlling Interest
In determining the estimated fair value of the non-controlling interest, the Company utilized the closing market price of its common stock on the acquisition date of $2.02 and multiplied this stock price by the number of outstanding non-controlling shares at that date.
Transaction Expenses
As required by the NAFH Investment, the Company incurred and reimbursed third party expenses of $750 which were recorded as a reduction of proceeds received from the issuance of common shares to NAFH. The Company also incurred $5.1 million of underwriting costs associated with the NAFH Investment.
There were no indemnification assets in this transaction, nor was there any contingent consideration to be recognized except for contingent value rights. In connection with the NAFH Investment, each Company shareholder as of September 6, 2011 received one contingent value right per share (“CVR”) that entitles the holder to receive up to $0.75 in cash per CVR at the end of a five-year period based on the credit performance of GreenBank’s then existing loan portfolio as of May 5, 2011.

The Predecessor Company reviewsreviewed its investment portfolio on a quarterly basis judging each investment for other-than-temporary impairment (“OTTI”). Management doesdid not have the intent to sell any of the temporarily impaired investments and believes it is more likely than not that the Company will not have to sell any such securities before a recovery of cost. The OTTI analysis focuses on the duration and amount a security is below book value and assesses a calculation for both a credit loss and a non-credit loss for each measured security considering the security’s type, performance, underlying collateral, and any current or potential debt rating changes. The OTTI calculation for credit loss is reflected in the income statement while the non-credit loss is reflected in other comprehensive income (loss).
The Predecessor Company holdsheld a single issue trust preferred security issued by a privately held bank holding company. The bank holding company deferred its interest payments beginning in the second quarter of 2009, and we have placed the security on non-accrual. The Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis entered into an agreement with the bank holding company on October 22, 2009 which was made public on October 30, 2009. Among other provisions of the regulatory agreement, the bank holding company must strengthen its management of operations, strengthen its credit risk management practices, and submit a capital plan. As of June 30,September 7, 2011 no other communications between the bank holding company and the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis have been made public. Our estimated fair value implies an unrealized loss of $37,$199, related primarily to illiquidity. The Company did not recognize other-than-temporary impairment on the security for the three and six months ended June 30,periods from January 1 to September 7, 2011 or July 1 to September 7, 2011. Cumulative other-than-temporary impairment recognized for this security is $854.
The Predecessor Company holdsheld a private label class A21 collateralized mortgage obligation that was analyzed for the quarter ended June 30, 2011 with multiple stress scenarios using conservative assumptions for underlying collateral defaults, loss severity, and prepayments.period ending September 7, 2011. The security’s estimated fair value implies an unrealized loss of $74, an improvement of $30 compared to December 31, 2010.$74. The Company did not recognize a write-down through non-interest income representing other-than-temporary impairment on the security for the three and six months ended June 30,periods from January 1 to September 7, 2011 or July 1 to September 7, 2011.

The Bank managesPredecessor Company managed the loan portfolio by assigning one of nine credit risk ratings based on an internal assessment of credit risk. The credit risk categories are prime, desirable, satisfactory I or pass, satisfactory II, acceptable with care, management watch, substandard, and loss.
Prime credit risk rating: Assets of this grade are the highest quality credits of the Bank. They exceed substantially all the Bank’s underwriting criteria, and provide superior protection for the Bank through the paying capacity of the borrower and value of the collateral. The Bank’s credit risk is considered to be negligible. Included in this section are well-established borrowers with significant, diversified sources of income and net worth, or borrowers with ready access to alternative financing and unquestioned ability to meet debt obligations as agreed. A loan secured by cash or other highly liquid collateral, where the Bank holds such collateral, may be assigned this grade.

NOTE 34 — LOANS (Continued)
Desirable credit risk rating: Assets of this grade also exceed substantially all of the Bank’s underwriting criteria; however, they may lack the consistent long-term performance of a Prime rated credit. The credit risk to the Bank is considered minimal on these assets. Paying capacity of the borrower is still very strong with favorable trends and the value of the collateral is considered more than adequate to protect the Bank. Unsecured loans to borrowers with above-average earnings, liquidity and capital may be assigned this grade.
Satisfactory I credit risk rating or pass credit rating: Assets of this grade conform to all of the Bank’s underwriting criteria and evidence a below-average level of credit risk. Borrower’s paying capacity is strong, with stable trends. If the borrower is a company, its earnings, liquidity and capitalization compare favorably to typical companies in its industry. The credit is well structured and serviced. Secondary sources of repayment are considered to be good. Payment history is good, and borrower consistently complies with all major covenants.
Satisfactory II credit risk rating: Assets of this grade conform to substantially all of the Bank’s underwriting criteria and evidence an average level of credit risk. However, such assets display more susceptibility to economic, technological or political changes since they lack the above-average financial strength of credits rated Satisfactory Tier I. Borrower’s repayment capacity is considered to be adequate. Credit is appropriately structured and serviced; payment history is satisfactory.
Acceptable with care credit risk rating: Assets of this grade conform to most of the Bank’s underwriting criteria and evidence an acceptable, though higher than average, level of credit risk. However, these loans have certain risk characteristics that could adversely affect the borrower’s ability to repay, given material adverse trends. Therefore, loans in this category require an above-average level of servicing or show more reliance on collateral and guaranties to preclude a loss to the Bank, should material adverse trends develop. If the borrower is a company, its earnings, liquidity and capitalization are slightly below average, when compared to its peers.
Management watch credit risk rating: Assets included in this category are currently protected but are potentially weak. These assets constitute an undue and unwarranted credit risk but do not presently expose the Bank to a sufficient degree of risk to warrant adverse classification. However, Management Watch assets do possess credit deficiencies deserving management’s close attention. If not corrected, such weaknesses or deficiencies may expose the Bank to an increased risk of loss in the future. Management Watch loans represent assets where the Bank’s ability to substantially affect the outcome has diminished to some degree, and thus it must closely monitor the situation to determine if and when a downgrade is warranted.
Substandard credit risk rating: Substandard assets are inadequately protected by the current net worth and financial capacity of the borrower or of the collateral pledged, if any. Assets so classified must have a well-defined weakness or weaknesses that jeopardize the liquidation of the debt. They are characterized by the distinct possibility that the Bank will sustain some loss if the deficiencies are not corrected. Loss potential, while existing in the aggregate amount of substandard assets, does not have to exist in individual assets classified as Substandard.
Loss credit rating: These assets are considered uncollectible and of such little value that their continuance as assets is not warranted. This classification does not mean that an asset has absolutely no recovery or salvage value, but rather it is not practical or desirable to defer writing off a basically worthless asset even though partial recovery may be affected in the future. Losses should be taken in the period in which they are identified as uncollectible.

A substantial portion of the Predecessor Company’s commercial real estate loans arewas secured by real estate in markets in which the Company is located. These loans are often restructuredstructured with interest reserves to fund interest costs during the construction and development period. Additionally, certain of these loans are structured with interest-only terms. A portion of the consumer mortgage and commercial real estate portfolios were originated through the permanent financing of construction, acquisition and development loans. The prolonged economic downturn has negatively impacted many borrower’s and guarantors’ ability to make payments under the terms of the loans as their liquidity has been depleted. Accordingly, the ultimate collectability of a substantial portion of these loans and the recovery of a substantial portion of the carrying amount of other real estate owned are susceptible to changes in real estate values in these areas. Continued economic distress could negatively impact additional borrowers’ and guarantors’ ability to repay their debt which will make more of the Company’s loans collateral dependent.

The Predecessor Company may elect to formally restructure a loan due to the weakening credit status of a borrower so that the restructuring may facilitate a repayment plan that minimizes the potential losses that the Company may have to otherwise incur. At June 30, 2011, the Company had $44,580 of restructured loans of which $23,183 was classified as non-accrual and the remaining were performing. The Company had taken charge-offs of $3,181 on the restructured non-accrual loans as of June 30, 2011. At December 31, 2010, the Company had $49,537 of restructured loans of which $9,597 was classified as non-accrual and the remaining were performing. The Company had taken charge-offs of $843 on the restructured non-accrual loans as of December 31, 2010.
The aggregate amount of loans to executive officers and directors of the Predecessor Company and their related interests was approximately $6,784 and $7,848 at June 30, 2011 and December 31, 2010, respectively.

NOTE 45 — EARNINGS PER SHARE OF COMMON STOCK
Basic earnings (loss) per share (“EPS”) of common stock is computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share of common stock is computed by dividing net income available to common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares and potential common shares outstanding during the period. Stock options, warrants and restricted common shares are regarded as potential common shares. Potential common shares are computed using the treasury stock method. For the threeperiods from July 1, 2011 to September 7, 2011 and six months ended June 30,from January 1, 2011 978,659to September 7, 2011, 976,659 options and warrants are excluded from the effect of dilutive securities because they are anti-dilutive;anti-dilutive, given the Predecessor’s net loss available to common shareholders; 1,017,645 options are similarly excluded from the effect of dilutive securities for the three and sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2010. For the period from September 8, 2011 through September 30, 2011, though the Successor Company generated net income available to common shareholders, 341,115 options continue to be excluded from the effect of dilutive securities because the options’ exercise prices exceed current market prices.
The following is a reconciliation of the numerators and denominators used in the basic and diluted earnings per share computations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010:computations:

NOTE 56 — SEGMENT INFORMATION
The Successor’s Company has a single operating segment, its 34% ownership of Capital Bank, NA, which is accounted for using the equity method. Thus, segment information is not relevant for the Successor Company. Given the NAFH Investment and Bank Merger, and as segment information has been previously reported through June 30, 2011, management determined that segment information for the July 1, 2011 through September 7, 2011 Predecessor period would not be meaningful.
The Predecessor Company’s operating segments include banking, mortgage banking, consumer finance, automobile lending and title insurance. The reportable segments are determined by the products and services offered, and internal reporting. Loans, investments and deposits provide the revenues in the banking operation; loans and fees provide the revenues in consumer finance and mortgage banking and insurance commissions provide revenues for the title insurance company. Consumer finance, automobile lending and title insurance do not meet the quantitative threshold on an individual basis, and are therefore shown below in “Other Segments”. Mortgage banking operations are included in “Bank”. All operations are domestic.
SegmentPredecessor Company segment performance is evaluated using net interest income and non-interest income. Income taxes are allocated based on income before income taxes, and indirect expenses (includes management fees) are allocated based on time spent for each segment. Transactions among segments are made at fair value. Information reported internally for performance assessment follows.

NOTE 67 — FAIR VALUE DISCLOSURES
Following completion of the NAFH Investment, and the Merger of GreenBank into Capital Bank, NA, the Company’s primary asset is its ownership of approximately 34% of Capital Bank, NA, recorded as an equity-method investment in that entity.
Fair value is defined as the exchange price that would be received for an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”), also establishes a fair value hierarchy which requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. The standard describes three levels of inputs that may be used to measure fair value:
Level 1
Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 1 assets and liabilities include debt and equity securities and derivative contracts that are traded in an active exchange market, as well as certain U.S. Treasury, other U.S. Government and agency mortgage-backed debt securities that are highly liquid and are actively traded in over-the-counter markets.
Level 2
Observable inputs other than Level 1 prices, such as quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities; quoted prices in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. Level 2 assets and liabilities include debt securities with quoted prices that are traded less frequently than exchange-traded instruments and derivative contracts whose value is determined using a pricing model with inputs that are observable in the market or can be derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data. This category generally includes certain U.S. Government and agency mortgage-backed debt securities, corporate debt securities, derivative contracts and residential mortgage loans held-for-sale.
Level 3
Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and that are significant to the fair value of the assets or liabilities. Level 3 assets and liabilities include financial instruments whose value is determined using pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies, or similar techniques, as well as instruments for which the determination of fair value requires significant management judgment or estimation. This category generally includes certain private equity investments, retained residual interests in securitizations, residential mortgage servicing rights, and highly structured or long-term derivative contracts.
Following is a description of valuation methodologies used for assets and liabilities recorded at fair value.
Investment Securities Available-for-Sale
Investment securities available-for-sale are recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. Fair value measurement is based upon quoted prices of like or similar securities, if available and these securities are classified as Level 1 or Level 2. If quoted prices are not available, fair values are measured using independent pricing models or other model-based valuation techniques such as the present value of future cash flows, adjusted for the security’s credit rating, prepayment assumptions and other factors such as credit loss assumptions and are classified as Level 3.
Loans Held for Sale
Loans held for sale are carried at the lower of cost or market value. The fair value of loans held for sale is based on what secondary markets are currently offering for portfolios with similar characteristics. As such, the Company classifies loans held for sale subjected to nonrecurring fair value adjustments as Level 2.

NOTE 67 — FAIR VALUE DISCLOSURES (continued)
Impaired Loans

The Company does not record loans at fair value on a recurring basis. However, from time to time, a loan is considered impaired and an allowance for loan losses is established. Loans for which it is probable that payment of interest and principal will not be made in accordance with the contractual terms of the loan agreement are considered impaired. Once a loan is identified as individually impaired, management measures impairment in accordance with GAAP. The fair value of impaired loans is estimated using one of several methods, including collateral value, market value of similar debt, enterprise value, liquidation value and discounted cash flows. Those impaired loans not requiring an allowance represent loans for which the fair value of the expected repayments or collateral exceed the recorded investments in such loans. At June 30, 2011,December 31, 2010, substantially all of the total impaired loans were evaluated based on either the fair value of the collateral or its liquidation value. In accordance with GAAP, impaired loans where an allowance is established based on the fair value of collateral require classification in the fair value hierarchy. When the fair value of the collateral is based on an observable market price or a current appraised value, the Company records the impaired loan as nonrecurring Level 2. When an appraised value is not available or management determines the fair value of the collateral is further impaired below the appraised value and there is no observable market price, the Company records the impaired loan as nonrecurring Level 3.
Other Real Estate
Other real estate, consisting of properties obtained through foreclosure or in satisfaction of loans, is reported at fair value, determined on the basis of current appraisals, comparable sales, and other estimates of value obtained principally from independent sources, adjusted for estimated selling costs. At the time of foreclosure, any excess of the loan balance over the fair value of the real estate held as collateral is treated as a charge against the allowance for loan losses. Gains or losses on sale and any subsequent adjustments to the value are recorded as a component of foreclosed real estate expense. Other real estate is included in Level 3 of the valuation hierarchy.

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair values for financial instruments that are not disclosed previously in this note. The carrying amount is considered to estimate fair value for cash and short-term instruments, demand deposits, liabilities for repurchase agreements, variable rate loans or deposits that reprice frequently and fully, and accrued interest receivable and payable. For fixed rate loans or deposits and for variable rate loans or deposits with infrequent repricing or repricing limits, the fair value is estimated by discounted cash flow analysis using current market rates for the estimated life and credit risk. No adjustment has been made for illiquidity in the market on loans as there is no information from which to reasonably base this estimate. Liabilities for FHLB advances and notes payable are estimated using rates of debt with similar terms and remaining maturities. Fair values for subordinated debentures is estimated by discounting future cash flows using current market rates for similar non-investment grade and unrated instruments. The fair value of off-balance sheet items is based on the current fees or costs that would be charged to enter into or terminate such arrangements, which is not material. The fair value of commitments to sell loans is based on the difference between the interest rates at which the loans have been committed to sell and the quoted secondary market price for similar loans, which is not material.

NOTE 78 — CAPITAL
The Company gave notice on November 9, 2010 to the U.S. Treasury Department thatOn September 7, 2011, the Company was suspendingcompleted the paymentissuance and sale of regular quarterly cash dividends on119.9 million shares of its common stock to NAFH for approximately $217 million in consideration. Also in connection with the NAFH Investment, all of the Company’s Fixed Rate Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series A, and related warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock issued to the U.S. Treasury Department. The dividends, which are cumulative, will continue to be accrued for payment inthrough the future and will be reported for the duration of the deferral period as a preferred dividend requirement that is deducted from net income for financial statement purposes. Additionally the Company, following consultation with the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta (“FRB”) has exercised its rights beginning in the fourth quarter of 2010 to defer regularly scheduledTARP were repurchased by NAFH.
During September 2011, NAFH paid interest payments on all of its issuesseries of junior subordinated debentures having an outstanding principal amount of $88.7 million, relating to outstanding trust preferred securities (“TRUPs”). Under the terms of the trust documents associated with these debentures, the Company may defer, for which payments of interest for up to 20 consecutive quarterly periods without default or penalty. The regular scheduled interest payments will continue to be accrued for paymenthad been deferred beginning in the future and reported as an expense for financial statement purposes. Together,fourth quarter of 2010.
During the deferralthird quarter of interest payments on TRUPs and suspension of dividend payments to the U.S. Treasury Department will preserve approximately $5.1 million per year in Bank level capital; however, capital at the Company level is still reduced. The deferral also saves the same amount in liquidity at the Company level. The approximate amount of accrued but unpaid interest on subordinated debt and preferred stock dividend was $4,669 as of June 30, 2011.
On May 2, 2011, the Bank received notice from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”)FDIC and the Tennessee Department of Financial Institutions (“TDFI”) that, asTDFI issued a result of those agencies’ findings in their most recently completed joint safety and soundness examination, the agencies would be seeking a formal enforcement actionconsent order against the Bank aimed at strengthening the Bank’s operations and its financial condition, and that accordingly, the FDIC was pursuing the issuance of a consent order against the Bank and the TDFI was pursuing the issuance of a written agreement against the Bank.condition. The Company believes that the final terms of the order and written agreement will containorder’s provisions included requirements similar to those that the Bank has already informally committed to comply with, including requirements to maintain the Bank’s capital ratios above those levels required to be considered “well-capitalized” under federal banking regulations. As a result of the subsequent Bank merger, the consent order is no longer in effect.
The Company’s and the Bank’s regulatory capital ratios as of June 30, 2011, and the minimum ratios required to be met under the federal statutory and regulatory guidelines as well as the minimum ratios the Bank has informally ommitted to its regulators that it will maintain are set forth below:

NOTE 9 —INVESTMENT AGREEMENT WITH NORTH AMERICAN FINANCIAL HOLDINGS, INC.
On May 5, 2011, the Company and the Bank entered into an Investment Agreement with North American Financial Holdings, Inc. (“North American”) pursuant to which North American has agreed to acquire approximately 120 million shares of the Company’s common stock at a per share purchase price of $1.81, for a total investment of approximately $217 million. The transaction, which is subject to shareholder and regulatory approval, as well as the satisfaction of other customary closing conditions, is expected to be consummated in the third quarter of 2011. In connection with the investment, the Company expects that North American will enter into a binding agreement with the U. S. Department of Treasury to purchase all of the outstanding shares of the Company’s Fixed Rate Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series A, and related warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s Common Stock.
(Continued)

31


In connection with the investment by North American, the Company’s shareholders as of a record date to be fixed near the closing of that transaction will receive a contingent value right, entitling them to cash proceeds of up to $0.75 per share of common stock based on the credit performance of the Bank’s legacy loan portfolio over the five-year period following closing.
If an Acquisition Proposal (as defined in the Investment Agreement) is made to the Company or its subsidiaries and thereafter the Investment Agreement is terminated because (i) the required approvals of the Company’s shareholders are not obtained; (ii) the Company breaches its obligations under the non-solicitation/exclusivity provisions; or (iii) the Company breaches a covenant of the Investment Agreement (and fails to cure such breach in the time allowed in the Investment Agreement) that causes the failure of a closing condition to be satisfied, then the Company will owe North American a $750,000 expense reimbursement immediately and, if an alternative transaction is entered into within twelve (12) months of the termination of the deal, an $8,000,000 termination fee at the time the agreement for the new transaction is entered into. If an Acquisition Proposal is made, and thereafter the Investment Agreement is terminated by North American because the Board of Directors has withdrawn its recommendation that the shareholders approve the transactions or recommended a competing transaction, a $750,000 expense reimbursement would be payable immediately and $4,000,000 of the termination fee would be payable immediately, with the remaining $4,000,000 payable if the Company enters into an agreement for an alternative transaction within 12 months of the termination of the deal.
In addition, on May 5, 2011, the Company also entered into a Stock Option Agreement (the “Option Agreement”) with North American, pursuant to which the Company granted an option (the “Option”) to purchase up to 2,628,183 shares of Common Stock (not to exceed 19.9% of the issued and outstanding shares of the Company) at a price equal to the closing price on the first trading day following the date of the Investment Agreement (the “Option Price”). Pursuant to the Option Agreement, the Option will be exercisable under certain circumstances in connection with certain third party acquisitions or acquisition proposals that occur prior to an “Exercise Termination Event.”
An “Exercise Termination Event” means any of the following:
completion of the North American’s initial investment in the Company;
termination of the Investment Agreement in accordance with its terms, before certain third party acquisitions or acquisition proposals, except a termination of the Investment Agreement by North American based on a breach by the Company of a representation, warranty, covenant or other agreement contained in the Investment Agreement (unless the breach is non-volitional) or a termination based on the Company breaching its obligations under the non-solicitation/exclusivity provisions of the Investment Agreement or based on the Board of Directors having withdrawn its recommendation that the Company’s shareholders approve the transactions or recommended a competing transaction; or
the passage of 18 months, subject to certain limited extensions described in the Option Agreement, after termination of the Investment Agreement, if the termination follows the occurrence of certain third party acquisitions or acquisition proposals or is a termination of the Investment Agreement by North American based on a breach by the Company of a representation, warranty, covenant or other agreement contained in the Investment Agreement (unless the breach is non-volitional) or a termination based on the Company breaching its obligations under the non-solicitation/exclusivity provisions of the Investment Agreement or based on the Board of Directors having withdrawn its recommendation that the Company’s shareholders approve the transactions or recommended a competing transaction.
In addition, upon the occurrence of certain events relating to third party acquisitions, North American may require the Company to repurchase the Option at a price equal to either (i) the number of shares for which the Option may be exercised multiplied by the amount by which the “Market/Offer Price” (as that term is defined in the Option Agreement), exceeds the Option Price or (ii) $2,500,000, adjusted in the case of clause (ii) for the aggregate purchase price previously paid by North American with respect to any option shares and gains on sales of stock purchased under the Option. In no event may North American’s total profit with respect to the Option exceed $8,000,000.
Subsequent to the announcement of North American’s planned investment, four class action lawsuits were filed against the Company, the Company’s directors and North American by certain of its shareholders. For additional detail regarding these lawsuits (including the settlement in principle that the parties have reached), see Part II, Item 1 “Legal Proceedings” below.

On September 7, 2011, the Company completed the issuance and sale of 119.9 million shares of its common stock to NAFH for approximately $217 million in consideration (“NAFH Investment”). NAFH is a bank holding company for GreenBank (the “Bank”),formed with the goal of creating a Tennessee-chartered commercial bank that conductsregional banking franchise in the principal businesssoutheastern region of the Company. The CompanyUnited States through organic growth and acquisition of other banks, including failed, underperforming and undercapitalized banks.

The Bank currently maintains a main office in Greeneville,Florida, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee and 64 full-service bank branches primarily in EastVirginia.
On September 7, 2011, GreenBank, which was formerly a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, merged (the “Merger” or “Bank Merger”) with and Middle Tennessee. In addition to its commercialinto Capital Bank, NA, a national banking operations, the Bank conducts separate businesses through its three wholly-owned subsidiaries: Superiorassociation and subsidiary of TIB Financial Services, Inc.

On September 8, 2011, NAFH’s Board of Directors approved and adopted a wealth management officeplan of merger which provides for the merger of Green Bankshares with and into NAFH, with NAFH continuing as the surviving entity. In the merger, each share of Green Bankshares common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the completion of the merger, except for certain shares held by NAFH or Green Bankshares, will be converted into the right to receive .0915 of a share of NAFH Class A common stock. No fractional share of Class A common stock will be issued in Sumner County,connection with the merger, and holders of Green Bankshares common stock will be entitled to receive cash in lieu thereof. Since NAFH currently owns more than 90% of the common stock of Green Bankshares, under Delaware and Tennessee law, no vote of our stockholders is required to complete the merger. NAFH will determine when and a mortgage banking operation in Knox County, Tennessee. if the merger will ultimately take place.
All dollar amounts reported or discussed in Part I, Item 2 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are shown in thousands, except per share amounts.
Business Strategy
On May 5, Financial results for the first nine months of 2011 were significantly impacted by the controlling investment in the Company by NAFH. As a result of the NAFH Investment, NAFH now owners 90% of the voting securities of the Company and followed the Bank entered into an Investment Agreementacquisition method of accounting and applied “acquisition accounting.” Acquisition accounting requires that the assets purchased, the liabilities assumed, and non-controlling interests all be reported in the acquirer’s financial statements at their fair value, with North American pursuant to which North American has agreed to acquire approximately 120 million sharesany excess of purchase consideration over the net assets being reported as goodwill. As part of the Company’s common stock atvaluation, intangible assets were identified and a per share purchase pricefair value was determined as required by the accounting guidance for business combinations. Accounting guidance also allows the application of $1.81, for a total investment“push down accounting,” whereby the adjustments of approximately $217 million. The transaction, which is subjectassets and liabilities to shareholderfair value and regulatory approval, as well as the satisfaction of other customary closing conditions, is expected to be consummatedresultant goodwill are shown in the third quarter of 2011. In connection with the investment, the Company expects that North American will enter into a binding agreement with the U. S. Department of Treasury to purchase allfinancial statements of the outstanding shares of the Company’s Fixed Rate Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series A, and related warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s Common Stock.
A Special Meeting of Shareholders at which the Company’s shareholders will be asked to approve the transaction contemplated by the Investment Agreement with North American has been scheduled for September 7, 2011.
In connection with the investment by North American, the Company’s shareholders as of a record date to be fixed near the closing of that transaction will receive a contingent value right, entitling them to cash proceeds of up to $0.75 per share of common stock based on the credit performance of the Bank’s legacy loan portfolio over the five-year period following closing.

Balances and high levels of nonperforming assets, there will be little to no loan growth until the current environment stabilizesactivity in the Company’s markets and the economy begins to improve.
In the event that North American’s investment is consummated, we believe that the additional capital contributedconsolidated financial statements prior to the Company in that transaction will facilitate loan growth as well as enableNAFH Investment have been labeled with “Predecessor Company” while balances and activity subsequent to the Company to consider growth opportunities in the form of in-market mergers and acquisitions including acquisitions of both entire financial institutions and selected branches of financial institutions. Following consummation of the North American investment, de novo branching could also be a method of growth, particularly in high-growth and other demographically-desirable markets.NAFH Investment have been labeled with “Successor Company.”
The Bank focuses its lending efforts predominately on individuals and small to medium-sized businesses while it generates deposits primarily from individuals in its local communities. To aid in deposit generation efforts, the Bank offers its customers extended hours of operation during the week as well as Saturday and Sunday banking in many of its markets. The Bank also offers free online banking along with its High Performance Checking Program which since its inception has generated a significant number of core transaction accounts.
In addition to the Company’s business model, which is summarized in the paragraphs above and the Company’s 2010 Annual Report on Form 10-K, the Company is continuously investigating and analyzing other lines and areas of business. Conversely, the Company frequently evaluates and analyzes the profitability, risk factors and viability of its various business lines and segments and, depending upon the results of these evaluations and analyses, may conclude to exit certain segments and/or business lines. Further, in conjunction with these ongoing evaluations and analyses, the Company may decide to sell, merge or close certain branch facilities.
Overview
For the three months ended June 30, 2011, thePredecessor Company reported a net loss available to common shareholders for the period from July 1, 2011 through September 7, 2011 of $12,384,$9.8 million compared withto a net loss available to common shareholders of $11,561 for the quarter ended March 31, 2011, and net income available to common shareholders of $1,561$12.4 million for the second quarter of 2011 and a net loss of $36.4 million for the third quarter of 2010. Elevated credit costs continueFor the period from September 8, 2011 through September 30, 2011, the Company reported net income of $930 thousand.
Due to significantly impact earnings as the $823 increaseddifference in lengths of reporting periods and the Merger discussed above and the resulting deconsolidation of GreenBank on September 7, 2011, the operating results for the period from July 1, 2011 through September 7, 2011 only include the results of GreenBank for approximately 2 months and therefore are generally not comparable to the operations in prior quarters.
The loss versusreported in the quarter ended March 31,period from July 1, 2011 through September 7, 2011 was driven largely byprimarily due to a $2,491 increase$15.5 million provision for loan losses and $14.7 million in OREOforeclosed asset related expenses and a $436 increase in the loan loss provision, partially offset by a $609 increasegain of $11.2 million as a result of the redemption of the company series A preferred stock. The loss reported in non-interest income, a $748 decline in other non-interest expenses and a $562 decline in income tax expense. The $13,945 decline in net income versus the second quarter of 2010 related2011 was primarily due to a $9,584 increase$14.3 million provision for loan losses and $6.3 million in foreclosed asset related expenses, while the loss reported in the third quarter of 2010 was primarily due to a $36.8 million provision for loan loss provision, a $4,280 increaselosses and $7.8 million in OREO expenses and a $2,021 decline in net interest income reflecting the approximately 22% decline in average loan balances.foreclosed asset related expenses.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The Company’s consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reported periods.
Financial results for the first nine months of 2011 were significantly impacted by the controlling investment in the Company by NAFH. The Company elected to apply push-down accounting. Accordingly, the Company’s assets and liabilities were adjusted to estimated fair values at the NAFH Investment date, resulting in elimination of the allowance for loan losses. The Company is still in the process of completing its fair value analysis of assets and liabilities, and final fair value adjustments may differ from the preliminary estimates recorded to date.
Due to its ownership level and significant influence, the Company’s investment in Capital Bank, NA is recorded as an equity-method investment in that entity. As of September 30, 2011, the Company’s investment in Capital Bank, NA totaled $312.4 million, representing the Company’s primary asset. The investment reflected the Company’s 34% pro rata ownership of Capital Bank, NA’s total shareholders’ equity as a result of the Bank Merger. In periods subsequent to the Merger, the Company will adjust this equity investment balance based on its equity in Capital Bank, NA’s net income and comprehensive income. In connection with the Bank Merger, assets and liabilities of GreenBank were de-consolidated from the Company’s balance sheet resulting in a significant decrease in total assets and total liabilities of the Company in the third quarter of 2011.

Management continually evaluates the Company’s accounting policies and estimates it uses to prepare the consolidated financial statements. In general, management’s estimates are based on historical experience, information from regulators and third party professionals and various assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the existing facts and circumstances. Actual results could differ from those estimates made by management.
The Company believes itsPrior to the Bank Merger, critical accounting policies and estimates includeincluded the valuation of the allowance for loan losses and the fair value of financial instruments and other accounts, including OREO. Based on management’s calculation, an allowance of $62,728, or 4.02% of total loans, net of unearned income, was deemed an adequate estimate of losses inherent in the loan portfolio as of June 30, 2011. This estimate resulted in a provision for loan losses in the income statement of $14,333 and $28,229 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively. If the mix and amount of future charge-off percentages differ significantly from those assumptions used by management in making its determination, the allowance for loan losses and provision for loan losses on the income statement could be materially affected.

The consolidated financial statements include certain accounting and disclosures that require management to make estimates about fair values. Estimates of fair value arewere used in the accounting for securities available for sale, loans held for sale, goodwill, other intangible assets, OREO and acquisition purchase accounting adjustments. Estimates of fair values are used in disclosures regarding securities held to maturity, stock compensation, commitments, and the fair values of financial instruments. Fair values are estimated using relevant market information and other assumptions such as interest rates, credit risk, prepayments and other factors. The fair values of financial instruments are subject to change as influenced by market conditions.
The Company believes its critical accounting policies and estimates also include the valuation of the allowance for net Deferred Tax Assets (“DTA”). A valuation allowance is recognized for a net DTA if, based on the weight of available evidence, it is more-likely-than-not that some portion or the entire DTA will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which those temporary differences become deductible. In making such judgments, significant weight is given to evidence that can be objectively verified. As a result of the increased credit losses,application of the Company entered intoacquisition method of accounting a three-year cumulative pre-tax loss position (excluding the goodwill impairment charge recognized in the second quarter of 2009) as of September 30, 2010. A cumulative loss position is considered significant negative evidence in assessing the realizability of anet deferred tax asset whichof $53,407 was recognized at acquisition date. The net deferred tax asset is difficultprimarily related to overcome.
The Company’s estimatethe recognition of differences between certain tax and book bases of assets and liabilities related to the acquisition method of accounting, including fair value adjustments discussed elsewhere in this section, along with federal and state net operating losses that the Company determined to be realizable as of the realization of its net DTA was based on the scheduled reversal ofacquisition date. A valuation allowance is recorded for deferred tax liabilities and taxable income available in prior carry back years, pre-tax coreassets, including net operating projections, tax planning strategies, andlosses, if the longevity of the Company. Based on management’s calculation, a valuation allowance of $52,268, or 90% of the net DTA, was an adequate estimate as of June 30, 2011. If the Company’s financial condition were to deteriorate significantly from those assumptions used by management in making its determination, the valuation allowance for the net DTA and the provision for the net DTA on the income statement could be materially affected. Once profitability has been restored for a reasonable time, ifCompany determines that it is deemed more likely than not that the DTA can be utilized, and such profitability is considered sustainable, the valuation allowance would be reversed. Reversalsome portion or all of the valuation allowance requires a great deal of judgment anddeferred tax assets will not be based on the circumstances that exist as of that future date.realized.
The consolidated financial statements include certain accounting disclosures that require management to make estimates about fair values. Independent third party valuations are used for securities available for sale and securities held to maturity as well as acquisition purchase accounting adjustments. Estimates of fair value are used in accounting for loans held for sale, goodwill and other intangible assets. Estimates of fair values are used in disclosures regarding stock compensation, commitments, and the fair values of financial instruments. Fair values are estimated using relevant market information and other assumptions such as interest rates, credit risk, prepayments and other factors. The fair values of financial instruments are subject to change as influenced by market conditions.

Changes in Results of Operations
Due to the difference in lengths of reporting periods and the Merger discussed above and the resulting deconsolidation of GreenBank on September 7, 2011, the operating results for the period from July 1, 2011 through September 7, 2011 only include the results of GreenBank for approximately 2 months and therefore are generally not comparable to the operations in prior quarters. Thus, the period of July 1, 2011 through September 7, 2011 has 24% fewer days than the third quarter of 2010, and the period of January 1, 2011 through September 7, 2011 has 8% fewer days than the first nine months of 2010.
Net Loss.Income / (Loss).
For the period from September 8, 2011 through September 30, 2011, the Successor Company reported net income of $930 thousand.
The Company’sPredecessor Company reported a net loss available to common shareholders was $12,384 and $23,945 for the three and six months ended June 30,period from July 1, 2011 through September 7, 2011 of $9.8 million compared to a net incomeloss of $12.4 million for the second quarter of 2011 and a net loss of $36.4 million for the third quarter of 2010. The net loss available to common shareholders of $1,561 and $3,507 for the three and sixperiod from January 1, 2011 through September 7, 2011 was $33.7 million compared to a net loss of $32.9 million for the first nine months ended June 30, 2010, respectively. The $13,945 decline between the 2011 second quarter results and the second quarter of 2010 reflected a $9,584 increase in the loan loss provision, coupled with a $4,280 increase in costs associated with maintenance, disposition and revaluation of other real estate owned (“OREO”) and a $2,021 decline in net interest income, along with continued weakness in economic conditions in our markets. We incurred an approximately 22% decline in average loan balances between the periods as well.2010.
Net Interest Income.
Subsequent to the deconsolidation of GreenBank on September 7, 2011, the Company has no interest bearing assets. The Company’s primary asset is an equity method investment in Capital Bank for which earnings are reported as non-interest income.

The largest source of earnings for the Predecessor Company iswas net interest income, which is the difference between interest income on interest earning assets and interest expense on deposits and other interest-bearing liabilities.
SecondThe net interest margin for the period from July 1, 2011 through September 7, 2011 was 3.91%, up slightly from the 3.90% margin for the third quarter 2011of 2010. However, net interest income totaled $19,452, up $185declined $6,749 or 1% versus the first quarter of 2011 but down $2,021 or 9% versus the second quarter of 2010. For the six months ended June 30, 2011, net interest income totaled $38,718, down from $43,132 for the comparable period in 2010. Versus the first quarter of 2011, the modest increase was driven by an increase32% due to a decline in the number of days in the current quarter. The adverse impact of continued declinesperiod and a 22% decline in average performing loansloan balances (the combination of movement into non-performing loans coupled with credit worthy borrowers reducing their aggregate loans), with average balances down approximately $85 million or 5.5% during the second quarter, was offset in part by a 0.07% increase in loan yields, due to a reduction in interest reversals, and a 0.13% decline in deposit yields due to continued pricing discipline.
The decline in net interest income in the second quarter of 2011 versus the second quarter of 2010 was due to an approximately 22% decline in average loans partiallybalances), offset by the Company’s ability to lower average rates paid on interest bearing deposits by 0.61%0.54% while achieving a 0.22% increase in average loan yields through pricing discipline and lower interest reversals. The 3.91% net interest margin in the second quarter of 2011 was up 0.15% versus the second quarter of 2010 despite a shift from loans into lower yielding investment securities and short-term investments. Net interest margin for the six months ended June 30, 2011 was 3.84% compared to 3.88% for the comparable period in 2010. The reduction between the periods was principally the result of increased non-performing loans, offset in part by an improvement in our net interest spread. The Company’s average balance for interest-bearing deposits decreased 5% or $92,465 for the second quarter of 2011 versus the same period of 2010 as the Company reduced its reliance on jumbo time deposits and brokered deposits while focusing on building core deposit levels throughout its branch network. However, the average balance for core deposits (defined as total customer deposits excluding time deposits and brokered deposits) for the second quarter of 2011 grew by $101,398 or 9% compared to the second quarter of 2010.
Similarly, the 10% decline in net interest income in the first six months of 2011 versus the second quarter of 2010 was due to an approximately 21% decline in average loans partially offset by the Company’s ability to lower average rates paid on interest bearing deposits by 0.59% while achieving a 0.17%0.27% increase in average loan yields through pricing discipline and a reduction in interest reversals.reversals as fewer loans were placed on non-accrual during the period.
(Continued)The net interest margin for the period from January 1, 2011 through September 7, 2011 was 3.86%, down 3 basis points versus the first nine months of 2010. However, net interest income declined $11,191 or 17% due to a decline in the number of days and a 21% decline in average performing loan balances, partially offset by a 7 basis point increase in the spread between yields on earning assets versus interest bearing liabilities.

Provision for Loan Losses.
Due to the Bank Merger, the Company reported no loans on its Consolidated Balance Sheet as of September 30, 2011 (Successor) and, given the ability to apply push-down accounting, the Company’s assets and liabilities were adjusted to estimated fair values at the NAFH Investment date, resulting in elimination of the allowance for loan losses.
During the threeperiod from July 1, 2011 through September 7, 2011, loan charge-offs for the Predecessor Company were $7,182, and six months ended June 30,recoveries of charged-off loans were $686. During the period from January 1, 2011 through September 7, 2011, loan charge-offs were $17,227$40,814, and $33,632,recoveries of charged-off loans were $1,987. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2010, loan charge-offs were $37,199 and $47,248, respectively, and recoveries of charged-off loans were $511$650 and $1,301,$1,948, respectively. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2010, loan charge-offs were $5,316 and $10,049, respectively, and recoveries of charged-off loans were $449 and $1,299, respectively.
The Predecessor Company’s provision for loan losses increased to $14,333 and $28,229, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30,period of July 1, 2011 compared to $4,749 and $8,838, respectively,through September 7, 2011 was $15,513, down from $36,823 for the three and six months ended June 30,third quarter of 2010. The impactprovision for loan losses for the period of January 1, 2011 through September 7, 2011 was $43,742, versus $45,461 for the continuingfirst nine months of 2010. The Predecessor Company’s results continued to be adversely impacted by the challenging economic environment, elevated net charge-offs and increased non-performing assets were the primary reasons for the increase in provision expense in the second quarter of 2011 when compared to the comparable period in 2010.assets. Management continually evaluates the existing portfolio in light of loan concentrations, current general economic conditions and economic trends. On a monthly basis, the Company undertakes an extensive review of every loan in excess of $1 million that is adversely risk graded and every loan, regardless of amount, graded substandard.
The Company’s allowance for loan losses declined to $62,728 at June 30, 2011 from $65,109 at March 31, 2011. However, due to continued reductions in loan balances, the reserve to outstanding loans ratio increased to 4.02% at June 30, 2011 from 3.87% at March 31, 2011. These estimates resulted in a provision for loan losses in the income statement of $14,333 and $28,229 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011, respectively, versus $4,749 and $8,638 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2010. If economic conditions, including residential real estate market conditions, loan mix and amount of future charge-off percentages differ significantly from those assumptions used by management in making its determination, the allowance for loan losses and provision for loan losses on the income statement could be materially affected.
The ratio of allowance for loan losses to nonperforming loans was 47.52% as of June 30, 2011 versus 39.60% as of March 31, 2011, 45.83% as of December 31, 2010 and 77.02% as of June 30, 2010. The ratio of nonperforming assets to total assets was 9.23% as of June 30, 2011 versus 9.38% as of March 31, 2011, 8.56% at December 31, 2010 and 5.61% as of June 30, 2010. The ratio of nonperforming loans to total loans, net of unearned income, fell to 8.46% as of June 30, 2011 versus 9.78% as of March 31, 2011 as there was a shift from non-performing loans to OREO during the second quarter. The ratio of nonperforming loans to total loans was 8.35% as of December 31, 2010 and 3.37% as of June 30, 2010. Within the Bank, the Company’s largest subsidiary, the ratio of nonperforming assets to total assets was 9.17%, as of June 30, 2011 versus 9.34% as of March 31, 2011 and 8.52% at December 31, 2010.
Net charge-offs as a percentage of average loans increased to 1.03% (annualized 4.1%) for the three months ended June 30, 2011 from 0.25% (annualized 1.0%) for the three months ended June 30, 2010. For the six months ended June 30, 2011, net charge-offs as a percentage of average loans was 1.93% (annualized 3.9%), which was up from 0.44% (annualized 0.89%) for the comparable period in 2010.
Management believes that credit quality indicators will be driven by the current economic environment and condition of the residential real estate markets. Management continually evaluates the existing portfolio in light of loan concentrations, current general economic conditions and economic trends. During the second quarter of 2010, the Company segregated staffing for its special assets group and transferred additional independent resources into this area in an effort to accelerate problem asset resolution.
Based on its evaluation of the allowance for loan loss calculation and review of the loan portfolio, management believes the allowance for loan losses is adequate at June 30, 2011. However, the provision for loan losses could further increase based on actions taken by the special assets group to resolve problem loans, and if general economic conditions remain sluggish or weaken further or the residential real estate markets in Nashville, Knoxville or the Company’s other markets or the financial conditions of borrowers deteriorate beyond management’s current expectations.
Non-interest Income.Fee income unrelated to interest-earning assets, consisting primarily of service charges, commissions and fees, is an important component to the Company’s total revenue stream. Total non-interest income for the three and six months ended June 30,period of July 1, 2011 through September 7, 2011 was $8,236 and $15,864, respectively, down 6% and 4%$11,940 which included $6,324 of gains realized through the sale of investment securities. For the period January 1, 2011 through September 7, 2011, non-interest income was $27,803, up $2,317 versus the same periods infirst nine months of 2010.
Service charges on deposit accounts remain the largest component of total non-interest income. Service charges on deposit accounts for the threeperiods of January 1, 2011 through September 7, 2011 and six months ended June 30,July 1, 2011 through September 7, 2011 were $6,377$4,137 and $12,208,$16,346, respectively, down 5%38% and 4%15%, respectively, versus the comparablethree and nine months ending September 30, 2010 periods. The decline in service charges was primarily attributablelargely due to regulatory changes. We also experienced reductions in our trust24% and investment services income and mortgage banking income8% declines, respectively, in the first three and six monthsnumber of 2011, as compareddays in the period. Regulatory changes also contributed to the comparable periods in 2010.these declines.

Non-interest Expense.Control of non-interest expense is a critical aspect in enhancing income. Non-interest expense includes personnel, occupancy, and other expenses such as OREO costs, data processing, printing and supplies, legal and professional fees, postage, Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) assessment fees and other expenses. Total non-interest expense was $24,770 and $47,798 for the threeperiods of July 1, 2011 through September 7, 2011 and six months ended June 30,January 1, 2011 through September 7, 2011 was $29,585 and $77,382, respectively, up $3,496$2,576 or 16%10% versus the three months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2010 and 14%up $8,553 or 12% versus the sixnine months ended JuneSeptember 30, 2010.
The increasesincrease in each of these periods were principally the resultwas due to increases of a $4,280$6,949 and $5,842 increase,$12,791, respectively, in costs associated with OREO and repossessed assets, including the impact of results of revaluations of OREO properties following receipt of updated appraisals.
Personnel costs are the largest category of recurring non-interest expenses. For the threeperiods of July 1, 2011 through September 7, 2011 and six months ended June 30,January 1, 2011 through September 7, 2011 employee compensation and benefits represented $7,324were $6,707 and $15,455,$24,018, respectively, down $2,375 or 30% and 32%, respectively, of total non-interest expense. This represented a decline of $648 and $183, respectively,26% versus the year ago quarterthree months ended September 30, 2010 and six month period,down $2,494 or 9% versus the nine months ended September 30, 2010. Declines are due to the lower number of days in the periods and to the Company’s reduction in force effected in the first quarter of 2011 given the current business environment and level of business activity. Our employee compensation and benefit costs for the six months ended June 30,period of January 1, 2011 through September 7, 2011 included severance costs associated with the reduction in force that were recorded in the first quarter of 2011.
Income Taxes.A $281 benefit forFor the three months ended June 30,period of January 1, 2011 through September 7, 2011, income tax expense was recorded The benefit offset$974, related primarily to the provision recordedPredecessor Company’s surrender of bank owned life insurance policies.

As a result of the application of the acquisition method of accounting a net deferred tax asset of $53,407 was recognized at acquisition date, primarily related to the recognition of differences between certain tax and book bases of assets and liabilities related to the acquisition method of accounting, including fair value adjustments discussed elsewhere in this section, along with federal and state net operating losses that the linked quarter. Accounting guidance states that a DTA shouldCompany determined to be reduced by arealizable as of the acquisition date. A valuation allowance is recorded for deferred tax assets, including net operating losses, if based on the weight of all available evidence,Company determines that it is more likely than not that some portion or all of the entire deferred tax assetassets will not be realized. The determination of whether a deferred tax asset is realizable is based on weighing all available evidence, including both positive and negative evidence. In making such judgments, significant weight is given to the evidence that can be objectively verified. The Company’s estimate of the realization of its net DTA was based on the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities and taxable income available in prior carry back years, pre-tax core operating projections and tax planning strategies. Based on management’s calculation, an allowance of $52,268, or 90% of the DTA, was an adequate estimate of the portion of the net DTA which is more likely than not to not be realized as of June 30, 2011. For the six months ended June 30, 2010, which had no DTA valuation allowance provision, the effective income tax rate was 34.2%.
Changes in Financial Condition
Total assets at June 30,Subsequent to the deconsolidation of GreenBank on September 7, 2011, were $2,293,815,the Company has no interest earning assets.
For the period of January 1, 2011 through September 7, 2011, cash and cash equivalents of the Predecessor Company increased by $248,511 to a decreaselevel of $112,225 or 4.7% from December 31, 2010. The decrease in assets reflects$542,725 due primarily to a $184,875$146,969 decline in loans and the $147,569 cash component of the NAFH Investment. This was partially offset by a $124,497 decline in customer deposits, due a decline of approximately $128 million in non-core time deposits, partially offset by an increase of $65,140 in investment securities and liquid assets. Total assets at June 30, 2011 declined $235,517 or 9% from June 30, 2010 reflecting a $367,671 decline in loans, net of unearned income, which was partially offset by an increase of $175,929 in investment securities and liquid assets.
Non-performing assets (“NPA’s”), which include non-accrual loans, loans past due 90 days or more and still accruing interest and OREO, totaled $211,695 at June 30, 2011 compared with $205,914 at December 31. 2010. NPAs at June 30, 2011 increased $69,780 or 49% versus June 30, 2010. The Company expects that the levels of NPA’s will remain elevated for the remainder of 2011.
Non-performing loans include non-accrual loans and loans 90 or more days past due. All loans that are greater than 90 days past due are considered non-accrual unless they are adequately secured and there is reasonable assurance of full collection of principal and interest. Non-accrual loans that are 120 days past due without assurance of repayment are charged off against the allowance for loan losses. Non-performing loans totaled $132,005 at June 30, 2011, representing a decline of $13,814 versus December 31, 2010, due primarily to foreclosures and resulting transfer of the loan to OREO. Non-performing loans increased $67,207 or 103% versus June 30, 2010.
OREO totaled $79,690 at June 30, 2011, representing an increase of $19,595 from December 31, 2010, and an increase of $2,758 versus June 30, 2010 as recorded foreclosures exceeded recognized sales and write-downs.
Impaired loans, which are loans identified as being probable that the Company will not be able to collect all amounts of contractual interest and principal as scheduled in the loan agreement, totaled $149,903 after impairment charges necessary to reflect current fair values at June 30, 2011.

The Company’s policy requires new appraisals on adversely rated collateral dependent loans and OREO to be obtained at least annually. Each four months, the Company receives a written report from an independent nationally recognized organization which provides updated valuation trends, by price point and by zip code, for each of the major markets in which the Company is conducting business. The information obtained is then used in the Company’s impairment analysis of collateral dependent loans. If actual losses exceed the amount of the allowance for loan losses, earnings of the Company could be adversely affected.
At June 30, 2011, the ratio of the Company’s allowance for loan losses to non-performing loans (which include non-accrual loans) was 47.5% compared to 77.0% at June 30, 2010.
The Company maintains an investment portfolio to provide liquidity and earnings. Investments at June 30, 2011 with an amortized cost of $214,081 had a market value of $217,556. At December 31, 2010, investments with an amortized cost of $200,824 had a market value of $202,469. At June 30, 2010, investments with an amortized cost of $173,361 had a market value of $176,746.core deposits.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Liquidity. Liquidity refersfor the Predecessor Company referred to the ability or the financial flexibility to meet the needs of depositors and borrowers and fund operations. Maintaining appropriate levels of liquidity allowsallowed the Predecessor Company to have sufficient funds available for reserve requirements, customer demand for loans, withdrawal of deposit balances and maturities of deposits and other liabilities.
As Subsequent to the deconsolidation of June 30,GreenBank on September 7, 2011, the Bank’s liquidity reserves included $275,680 of surplus cash with the Federal Reserve, $5,023 of fed funds sold to upstream correspondent banks, and $27,227 of unpledged securities. As of June 30, 2011, the holding company’s liquidity reserves consisted of $1,773 of cash.
The Company’s primary source of liquidityliability is dividends paid by the Bank. Applicable Tennessee statutes and regulations impose restrictions on the amount of dividends that may be declared by the Bank. Under Tennessee law, the Bank can only pay dividends to the Company in an amount equal to or less than the total amount of its net income for that year combined with retained net income for the preceding two years. Payment of dividends in excess of this amount requires the consent of the Commissioner of the Tennessee Department of Financial Institutions (“TDFI”), FDIC, and the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta (“FRB”). Further, any dividend payments are subject to the continuing ability of the Bank to maintain compliance with minimum federal regulatory capital requirements, or any higher requirements that the Bank may be subject to, and to retain its characterization under federal regulations as a “well-capitalized” institution. Because of the Bank’s losses in 2009, 2010 and year-to-date 2011, dividends from the Bank to the holding company, including funds for payment of dividends on preferred stock and trust preferred, including the preferred stock issued to the U.S. Treasury, and interest on trust preferred securities to the extent that the Company does not have sufficient cash available at the holding company level, will require prior approval of the TDFI, FDIC and FRB.
Supervisory guidance from the FRB indicates that bank holding companies that are experiencing financial difficulties generally should eliminate, reduce or defer dividends on Tier 1 capital instruments including trust preferred securities, preferred stock or common stock, if the holding company needs to conserve capital for safe and sound operation and to serve as a source of strength to its subsidiaries. The Company has informally committed to the FRB that it will not (1) declare or pay dividends on the Company’s common or preferred stock, including the preferred shares owned by the U.S. Treasury Department (2) make any distributions on subordinated debentures or trust preferred securities or (3) incur any additional indebtedness without in each case, the prior written approval of the FRB. No dividends are expected to be paid in the foreseeable future.

Following consultation with the FRB, the Company gave notice on November 9, 2010 to the U.S. Treasury Department that the Company was suspending the payment of regular quarterly cash dividends on the Company’s Fixed Rate Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock, Series A issued to the U.S. Treasury Department. The dividends, which are cumulative, will continue to be accrued for payment in the future and will be reported for the duration of the deferral period as a preferred dividend requirement that is deducted from net income for financial statement purposes. Additionally the Company, following consultation with the FRB, has exercised its rights beginning in the fourth quarter of 2010 to defer regularly scheduled interest payments on all of its issues of junior subordinated debentures having an outstanding principal amount of $88.7 million, relating to outstanding trust preferred securities (“TRUPs”). In order to preserve capital at the Bank level, the Company, following consultation with the FRB, exercised its rights beginning in the fourth quarter of 2010 to defer regularly scheduled interest payments on these its subordinated debentures. Under the terms of the trust documents associated with these debentures, the Company may defer payments of interest for up to 20 consecutive quarterly periods without default or penalty. The regular scheduled interest payments will continue to be accrued for payment in the future and reported as an expense for financial statement purposes. Together, the deferral of interest payments on TRUPs and suspension of dividend payments to the U.S. Treasury Department will preserve approximately $5.1 million per year in Bank level capital. As of June 30, 2010,September 7, 2011, cumulative deferred interest payments on TRUPs and dividend paymentstotaled $3,908. Subsequent to the U.S. Treasury Department totaled $4,669.Bank Merger, the Company paid all previously deferred and current interest on TRUPs, after obtaining FRB approval.
For the six months ended JuneAs of September 30, 2011, the Company’s liquidity reserves consisted of $2,347 of cash which is deemed sufficient to fund debt service obligations and operating activities ofexpenses for approximately one year. It is the intent to merge the Company provided $32,457 of cash flows. The net loss of $21,444 comprised a substantial portion ofinto NAFH, with NAFH continuing as the cash generated from operations after removing various non-cash items, including $28,229 in provision for loan losses and $3,442 of depreciation and amortization. A decline in other assets added $12,191.
Maturities of $46,333 in investment securities, proceeds from the net change in loans of $111,627 and proceeds of $15,117 from the sale of OREO were the primary components of inflows from investing activities. These were offset in partsurviving entity. Thus, longer-term liquidity needs would be addressed by $59,790 in purchases of investment securities available for sale for a net increase in net cash provided from investing activities of $112,517.
The net cash used in financing activities totaled $94,960, due to a $93,466 decline in customer deposits, due a decline of approximately $128 million in non-core time deposits, partially offset by an increase in core deposits.NAFH.
Capital Resources.The Company’s capital position is reflected in its shareholders’ equity, subject to certain adjustments for regulatory purposes. Shareholders’ equity, or capital, is a measure of the Company’s net worth, soundness and viability.
On May 2, 2011, the Bank received notice from the FDIC and the Tennessee Department of Financial Institutions (“TDFI”) that the agencies would seek a formal enforcement action against the Bank aimed at strengthening the Bank’s operations and its financial condition, and that accordingly, the FDIC was pursuing the issuance of a consent order against the Bank and the TDFI was pursuing the issuance of a written agreement against the Bank.
As a result of the first half 2011 loss, the Bank’s capital ratios had declined. Shareholders’ equity on June 30, 2011 was $122,046, a decline of $21,851 or 15.2% sincefrom December 31, 2010 and a decline of $111,104 or 47.7% sincefrom June 30, 2010.
During the second quarter of 2009 the Company suspended common stock dividends and on November 9, 2010 the Company announced that it had suspended preferred stock dividends and interest payments on its junior subordinated debentures associated with its trust preferred securities in order to preserve capital at the Bank level.
Risk-based capital regulations adopted by the Board of Governors of the FRB and the FDIC require bank holding companies and banks, respectively, to achieve and maintain specified ratios of capital to risk-weighted assets. The risk-based capital rules are designed to measure Tier 1 Capital and Total Capital in relation to the credit risk of both on- and off-balance sheet items. Under the guidelines, one of four risk weights is applied to the different on-balance sheet items. Off-balance sheet items, such as loan commitments, are also subject to risk-weighting after conversion to balance sheet equivalent amounts. All bank holding companies and banks must maintain a minimum total capital to total risk-weighted assets ratio of 8.00%, at least half of which must be in the form of core, or Tier 1, capital (consisting of common equity, retained earnings, and a limited amount of qualifying perpetual preferred stock and trust preferred securities, net of goodwill and other intangible assets and accumulated other comprehensive income). These guidelines also specify that bank holding companies that are experiencing internal growth or making acquisitions will be expected to maintain strong capital positions substantially above the minimum supervisory levels.
At June 30, 2011, capital ratios for the Bank and the Company remained above the statutory minimums necessary to be deemed a well-capitalized financial institution. However, they fell below the Tier 1 leverage ratio of 10.0% and the Total risk-based capital ratio of 14.0% that the Bank had informally committed to its regulators that it would maintain, as discussed further in the 2010 Form 10-K.
(Continued)On August 15, 2011, the FDIC issued a Consent Order to GreenBank pursuant to a stipulation and consent dated August 12, 2011 whereby the Bank consented to the issuance of the Order. However, as a result of the subsequent merger of GreenBank into Capital Bank NA, the Consent Order is no longer in effect.

On May 2,Completion, on September 7, 2011, the Bank received notice from the FDIC and the TDFI that, as a result of those agencies’ findings in their most recently completed joint safety and soundness examination, the agencies would be seeking a formal enforcement action against the Bank aimed at strengthening the Bank’s operations and its financial condition, and that accordingly, the FDIC was pursuing the issuance and sale of a consent order against the Bank and the TDFI was pursuing the issuance119.9 million shares of a written agreement against the Bank. The Company believes that the final terms of the order and written agreement will contain requirements similarits common stock to those that the Bank has already informally committed to comply with, including requirements to maintain the Bank’s capital ratios above those levels required to be considered “well-capitalized” under federal banking regulations.
The Company’s and the Bank’s regulatory capital ratios as of June 30, 2011, and the minimum ratios required to be met under the federal statutory and regulatory guidelines as well as the minimum ratios that the Bank has informally committed to its regulators that it will maintain are set forth below:

The Company announced on May 5, 2011 that it had entered into a definitive agreement to raiseNAFH for approximately $217 million in new capital through the sale of newly issued common shares to North American. The transaction, which is subject to shareholder and regulatory approval, as well as the satisfaction of other customary closing conditions, is expected to be consummated in the third quarter of 2011. The recapitalization will strengthensignificantly strengthened the Company’s and the Bank’scapital position.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
At JuneAs of September 30, 2011, the Company had no outstanding unused lines of credit andor standby letters of credit totaling $234,801 and unfunded loan commitments outstanding of $5,382. Because these commitments generally have fixed expiration dates and most will expire without being drawn upon, the total commitment level does not necessarily represent future cash requirements. If needed to fund outstanding commitments, as noted in “Liquidity and Capital Resources — Liquidity”, as of June 30, 2011, the Company had various liquidity reserves, including $275,680 of surplus cash at the Federal Reserve, the ability to liquidate $5,023 of Federal funds sold, and $27,227 of unpledged investment securities.

Management is not aware of any additional commitments or contingent liabilities which may have a material adverse impact on the liquidity or capital resources of the Company.
Effect of New Accounting Standards
FASBIn September 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued ASU No. 2011-08, IntangiblesGoodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Goodwill for Impairment (“ASU — 2011-1 — 2011-08”). ASU 2011-08 amended guidance on the annual goodwill impairment test performed by the Company. Under the amended guidance, the Company will have the option to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to perform a two-step impairment test. If the Company believes, as a result of the qualitative assessment, that it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than the carrying value, the quantitative impairment test is required. If the Company believes the fair value of a reporting unit is greater than the carrying value, no further testing is required. A company can choose to perform the qualitative assessment on some or none of its reporting entities. The amended guidance includes examples of events and circumstances that might indicate that a reporting unit’s fair value is less than its carrying amount. These include macro-economic conditions such as deterioration in the entity’s operating environment, entity-specific events such as declining financial performance, and other events such as an expectation that a reporting unit will be sold. The amended guidance is effective for annual and interim goodwill impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2011. However, an entity can choose to early adopt even if its annual test date is before the issuance of the final standard, provided that the entity has not yet performed its 2011 annual impairment test or issued its financial statements. The adoption of ASU 2011-08 will not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial condition or results of operations.
In JanuaryJune 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-1 “Deferral2011-05, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Presentation of Comprehensive Income (“ASU 2011-05”). ASU 2011-05 amends current guidance by (i) eliminating the option to present components of other comprehensive income (OCI) as part of the Effective Datestatement of Disclosures about Troubled Debt Restructuringschanges in Update No. 2010-20.” ASU 2011-1 temporarily delaysshareholders’ equity, (ii) requiring the effective datepresentation of each component of net income and each component of OCI either in a single continuous statement or in two separate but consecutive statements, and (iii) requiring the presentation of reclassification adjustments on the face of the disclosures about troubled debt restructuringsstatement. The amendments of ASU 2011-05 do not change the option to present components of OCI either before or after related income tax effects, the items that must be reported in Update 2010-20 for public entities. Accordingly, management has not included such disclosures in Note 3 (Loans footnote)OCI, when an item of OCI should be reclassified to net income, or the interim financial statements. Management will implement the disclosures required by this standard beginning with the Company’s September 30, 2011 interim financial statements
FASB — ASU — 2011-2 In April 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-2 “Receivables (Topic 310) - A Creditor’s Determinationcomputation of Whether a Restructuring is a Troubled Debt Restructuring.” ASU 2011-2 provides additional guidance to assist creditors in determining whether a restructuring of a receivable meets the criteriaearnings per share (which continues to be considered a troubled debt restructuring. In conjunction withbased on net income). ASU 2011-1, the effective date of the disclosures has been temporarily delayed. Therefore, management has not included such disclosures in Note 3 (Loans footnote) of the financial statements. Management will implement the disclosures required by this standard beginning with the Company’s September 30, 2011 interim financial statements
In May 2011, the FASB issued an update to the accounting standards for amendments to achieve common fair value measurements and disclosure requirements in U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”). This update, which is a joint effort between the FASB and the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”), amends existing fair value measurement guidance to converge the fair value measurement guidance in U.S. GAAP and IFRS. This update clarifies the application of existing fair value measurement requirements, changes certain principles in existing guidance and requires additional fair value disclosures. The update permits measuring financial assets and liabilities on a net credit risk basis, if certain criteria are met, increases disclosure surrounding company determined market prices (Level 3) financial instruments, and also requires the fair value hierarchy disclosure of financial assets and liabilities that are not recognized at fair value in the financial statements, but are included in disclosures at fair value. This update2011-05 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2011 for public companies, with early adoption permitted and isretrospective application required. The adoption of ASU 2011-05 will not expected to have a significantan impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.condition or results of operations but will alter disclosures.
In JuneMay 2011, the FASB issued an updateASU No. 2011-04, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and IFRSs (“ASU 2011-04”). The amended guidance of ASU 2011-04 (i) clarifies how a principal market is determined, (ii) establishes the accounting standards relatingvaluation premise for the highest and best use of nonfinancial assets, (iii) addresses the fair value measurement of instruments with offsetting market or counterparty credit risks, (iv) extends the prohibition on blockage factors to the presentation of comprehensive income. This update amends current accounting standards to require that all nonowner changes in stockholders’ equity be presented in either a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements. Additionally, the update requires entities to present, on the facethree levels of the financial statements, reclassification adjustments for items that are reclassified from other comprehensive income to net income in the statement or statements where the components of net incomefair value hierarchy, and the components of other comprehensive income are presented. The option to present components of other comprehensive income as part(v) requires additional disclosures including transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the statementfair value hierarchy, quantitative and qualitative information and a description of changes in stockholders’ equity was eliminated. This updatean entity’s valuation process for Level 3 fair value measurements, and fair value hierarchy disclosures for financial instruments not measured at fair value. ASU 2011-04 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2011, andwith early adoption prohibited. The adoption of ASU 2011-04 is not expected to have a significantmaterial impact on the Company’s consolidated financial condition or results of operations.
In December 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-29, Disclosure of Supplementary Pro Forma Information for Business Combinations, to amend ASC Topic 805, Business Combinations. The amendments in this update specify that if a public entity presents comparative financial statements, the entity should disclose revenue and earnings of the combined entity as though the business combination(s) that occurred during the current year had occurred as of the beginning of the comparable prior annual reporting period only. The amendments in this update are effective prospectively for business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting period beginning on or after December 15, 2010. Adoption of this update did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
In July 2010, the FASB issued ASU 2010-20, Disclosures about the Credit Quality of Financing Receivables and the Allowance for Credit Losses, to amend ASC Topic 320, Receivables. The amendments in this update are intended to provide disclosures that facilitate financial statement users’ evaluation of the nature of credit risk inherent in the entity’s portfolio of financing receivables, how that risk is analyzed and assessed in arriving at the allowance for credit losses, and the changes and reasons for those changes in the allowance for credit losses. The disclosures as of the end of a reporting period are effective for interim and annual periods ending on or after December 15, 2010. The disclosures about activity that occurs during a reporting period are effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning on or after December 15, 2010. Adoption of this update did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

ITEM 3. 
QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
Part II, Item 7AMarket risk is the risk that a financial institution’s earnings and capital, or its ability to meet its business objectives, will be adversely affected by movements in market rates or prices such as interest rates, foreign exchange rates, equity rates, equity prices, credit spreads and/or commodity prices. The Company has assessed its market risk as predominately interest rate risk. As of September 30, 2011, the Company has no interest earning assets and our interest-bearing liabilities consist of trust preferred securities with a notional amount of $86 million. Accordingly, our net interest income is sensitive to changes in interest rates. As the most significant component of our future operating results will be derived from our 34% investment in Capital Bank, NA, which represents approximately 98% of the 2010 10-K is incorporated in this itemCompany’s total assets at September 30, 2011, we anticipate that net interest income will become a less significant measure of this Quarterly Report by this reference. There have been no material changes in the quantitative and qualitative market risksoperating results of the Company since December 31, 2010.in future periods. As all of the Company’s trust preferred securities are tied to the three month LIBOR rate, changes in net interest income would be directly correlated to changes in this rate. Accordingly, 100 and 200 basis point changes in this rate would result in $860,000 and $1,720,000 changes in interest expense, respectively.
ITEM 4. 
CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Company’s management, with the participation of the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(f) promulgated under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the “Exchange Act”) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon this evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of JuneSeptember 30, 2011, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
As outlined per the Internal Control section below, management completed remediation efforts in the first quarter of 2011 related to the material weakness in internal control over financial reporting identified as of December 31, 2010 and reported on in the Company’s 2010 10-K. Management anticipates that these remedial actions strengthened the Company’s internal control over financial reporting and addressed the individual deficiencies identified as of December 31, 2010. Because some of these remedial actions take place on a quarterly basis, their successful implementation will continue to be evaluated to validate management’s assessment that the deficiencies have been remediated.
In addition to these remediation efforts, in light of the material weakness as of December 31, 2010, in preparing the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements included in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q, the Company performed a thorough review of credit quality, focusing especially on the timely receipt and review of updated appraisals from outside independent third parties and internal supporting documentation to ensure that the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Report have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There have been no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting, except for further refinements to remediation efforts which management implemented in the first quarter of 2011 related to a material weakness in internal control over financial reporting identified as of December 31, 2010 and reported on in the Company’s 2010 Form 10-K. Following management’s determination of the material weakness, management took the following remedial actions:
During the fourth quarter of 2010 and as of December 31, 2010 all appraisals on impaired assets are, and will continue to be, ordered 90 days prior to the annual appraisal date, or when evidence of impairment has occurred, and submitted to the independent third party for review upon completion, in order to assure that all appraisals on impaired assets are received in accordance with the Company’s internal policies;

44


Pre-reviewed appraisals indicating evidence that impairment has occurred will be separately reviewed and discussed in the monthly valuation meeting held between the Special Assets Group and Accounting to ensure that there is adequate documentation of the consideration for recording a potential impairment when the review process is not 100% complete but it is probable that a loss has been incurred; and
Controls evidencing adequate secondary review and approval of impaired loan valuations and other real estate owned will be appropriately documented and evident within the Special Assets Group.

47


Management believes these remedial actions strengthened the Company’s internal control over financial reporting and addressed the individual deficiencies identified as of December 31, 2010. Because some of these remedial actions take place on a quarterly basis, their successful implementation will continue to be evaluated to validate management’s assessment that the deficiencies have been remediated. Due to the Bank Merger, these controls are no longer relevant for the Company.
The independent loan review function has been absent sinceSubsequent to the first quarteracquisition of 2011the Company by NAFH, the Company’s credit risk management policies and given the pending Investment Agreement with North American, plans to outsource this functionprocedures have been deferred. While not performed by an independent loan review function, there areconformed to the credit policies of NAFH, and accounting for the acquired balances and subsequent activity is subject to NAFH’s incremental internal control structure, including NAFH management’s supervision and review. Further, in connection with the application of acquisition method of accounting, we have engaged third party valuation specialists to assist with the estimation of fair values for our assets and liabilities at the acquisition date and our management has conducted a numberpreliminary purchase price allocation and related accounting for this acquisition. We believe that application of accounting and financial reporting policies, procedures presently in place which provide for review of past due loans, assessment of renewals, and re-grading of loans. Such procedures are conducted by credit officers, the interim Chief Credit Officer, special assets managers and credit analysts,practices consistent with NAFH’s existing internal control structure as well as the line lending personnel.revaluation of the Company’s balance sheet, which includes the loan portfolio and real estate owned, at acquisition, strengthened the internal controls over financial reporting and will further mitigate the risks related to previously discussed internal control weaknesses.

Item 1. 
Legal Proceedings
Securities Class Action.On November 18, 2010 a shareholder of the Company filed a putative class action lawsuit (styledBill Burgraff v. Green Bankshares, Inc., et al., U.S. District Court, Eastern District of Tennessee, Northeastern Division, Case No. 2:10-cv-00253) against the Company and certain of its current and former officers in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Tennessee in Greeneville, Tennessee on behalf of all persons that acquired shares of the Company’s common stock between January 19, 2010 and November 9, 2010.

The Company and the individual named defendants collectively intend to continue to vigorously defend themselves against these allegations.
North American Transaction. On May 12, 2011, a shareholder of the Company filed a putative class action lawsuit (styledBetty Smith v. Green Bankshares, Inc. et al., Case No. 11-625-III, Davidson County, Tennessee, Chancery Court) against the Company, the Bank, the Company’s Board of Directors (Steven M. Rownd, Robert K. Leonard, Martha M. Bachman, Bruce Campbell, W.T. Daniels, Samuel E. Lynch, Bill Mooningham, John Tolsma, Kenneth R. Vaught, and Charles E. Whitfield, Jr., and North American on behalf of all persons holding common stock of the Company. This complaint, which has been subsequently amended, was filed following the Company’s public announcement on May 5, 2011 of its entering into the Investment Agreement with North American and relates to the proposed investment in the Company by North American.
The amended complaint alleges that the individual defendants breached their fiduciary duties by accepting a sale price for the shares to be sold to North American that was unfair to the Company’s shareholders and by issuing a proxy statement that contained material omissions. The complaint also alleges that the Company, the Bank and North American aided and abetted these breaches of fiduciary duty. It seeks injunctive relief and/or rescission of the proposed investment by North American and fees and expenses in an unspecified amount.

48


On May 25, 2011, another shareholder of the Company filed a similar putative class action lawsuit (styledMark McClinton v. Green Bankshares, Inc. et al., Case No. 11-CV-284ktl, Greene County Circuit Court, Greeneville, Tennessee)against the Company, the Company’s Board of Directors and North American on behalf of all persons holding the Company’s common stock. The complaint similarly alleges that the individual defendants breached their fiduciary duties to the Company by agreeing to sell shares to North American at a price unfair to the Company’s shareholders. The complaint also alleges that the Company and North American aided and abetted these breaches of fiduciary duty. It seeks and injunction and/or rescission of North American’s investment in the Company and fees and expenses in an unspecified amount.
On June 16, 2011, another shareholder of the Company filed a putative class action lawsuit (styledThomas W. Cook Jr. v. Green Bankshares, Inc. et al., Civil Action No. 2:11-cv-00176, United States District Court for the Eastern District of Tennessee, Greeneville) against the Company, the Company’s Board of Directors and North American on behalf of all persons holding the Company’s common stock. The complaint alleges that the individual defendants breached their fiduciary duties to the Company by failing to maximize shareholder value in the proposed transaction with North American. The complaint also alleges that the Company and the individual defendants violated the securities laws by issuing a Preliminary Proxy Statement that contains alleged material misstatements and omissions. The complaint also alleges that the Company and North American aided and abetted the breaches of fiduciary duty. It seeks an injunction and/or rescission of North American’s investment in the Company, monetary damages and fees and expenses in an unspecified amount.
On July 6, 2011, another shareholder of the Company filed a lawsuit (styledBarbara N. Ballard v. Stephen M.

The complaint also alleges a class action claim on behalf of all persons holding the Company’s common stock against the individual defendants for breach of fiduciary duty based on these same alleged material misstatements and omissions. The complaint also alleges that the Company and North American aided and abetted the breaches of fiduciary duty. It seeks an injunction and/or rescission of North American’s investment in the Company and fees and expenses in an unspecified amount.
On July 26, 2011, the parties to the four North American transaction-related class action lawsuits reached an agreement in principle to resolve those four lawsuits on the basis of the inclusion of certain additional disclosures regarding the North American transaction in the proxy statement in connection with the proposed North American transaction. The proposed settlement is subject to, among other things, court approval. North American’s investment in the Company closed on September 7, 2011.
It is expected that settlement documents will be field with the court the week of November 7, 2011. The parties intend to seek court approval of the proposed settlement including a proposed notice to shareholders. If approved, a settlement notice will be mailed to shareholders and a subsequent final fairness hearing will be set by the court, expected within sixty to ninety days. If the court accepts settlement, the insurance carrier for the Company and its directors will bear the cost of settlement.
The Company and the individual defendants collectively intend to vigorously defend themselves against these class action allegations.
General. The Company and its subsidiaries are subject to claims and suits arising in the ordinary course of business. In the opinion of management, the ultimate resolution of these pending claims and legal proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations.

Item 1A. 
Risk Factors
Except as set forth below and in the Company’sour Quarterly ReportReports on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended Marchfiled since December 31, 2011,2010, there have been no material changes to our risk factors as previously disclosed in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2010:
Risks Relating to the Potential Merger of Green Bankshare, Inc. and NAFH Inc.
The potential merger has been approved without your vote.
NAFH owns over 90% of the common stock of the Company. Accordingly, under Tennessee law, no vote of the Company’s Board of Directors or shareholders is required to complete the merger. As a result, the merger may be completed even if opposed by all of the Company’s shareholders unaffiliated with NAFH.
Neither NAFH nor the Company has hired anyone to represent you and NAFH has a conflict of interest in the merger.
NAFH and the Company have not (1) negotiated the merger at arm’s length or (2) hired independent persons to negotiate the terms of the merger for you. Since NAFH initiated and structured the merger without negotiating with the Company or any independent person and NAFH has an interest in acquiring your shares at the lowest possible price, if independent persons had been hired, the terms of the merger may have been more favorable to you.
Because there is currently no market for NAFH’s Class A common stock and a market for NAFH’s Class A common stock may not develop, you cannot be sure of the market value of the merger consideration you will receive.
Upon completion of the merger, each share of the Company’s common stock will be converted into merger consideration consisting of 0.0915 of a share of NAFH’s Class A common stock. Prior to the initial public offering of NAFH’s Class A common stock, which is expected to be completed concurrently with the merger, there has been no established public market for NAFH’s Class A common stock. An active, liquid trading market for NAFH’s Class A common stock may not develop or be sustained following the initial public offering. If an active trading market does not develop, holders of NAFH’s Class A common stock may have difficulty selling their shares at an attractive price, or at all. NAFH intends to apply to have its Class A common stock listed on Nasdaq, but its application may not be approved. In addition, the liquidity of any market that may develop or the price that NAFH’s stockholders may obtain for their shares of Class A common stock cannot be predicted. The initial public offering price for NAFH’s Class A common stock will be determined by negotiations between NAFH, its stockholders who choose to sell their shares in the initial public offering and the representative of the underwriters and may not be indicative of prices that will prevail in the open market following the offering.
The outcome of NAFH’s initial public offering will affect the market value of the consideration the Company’s shareholders will receive upon completion of the merger. Accordingly, you will not know or be able to calculate the market value of the merger consideration you would receive upon completion of the merger. There will be no adjustment to the exchange ratio for changes in the anticipated outcome of NAFH’s initial public offering or changes in the market price of the Company’s common stock.
If NAFH completes the merger without completing the initial public offering, the size of the outstanding public float of NAFH’s Class A common stock will be low and the value and liquidity of NAFH’s common stock may be adversely affected.
While the merger is expected to be completed concurrently with NAFH’s initial public offering, NAFH controls when the merger will take place and there can be no guarantee that NAFH’s initial public offering will occur concurrently with the merger or at all. If the Bank becomes subjectmerger is completed and NAFH’s initial public offering is delayed or does not occur, there will be fewer publicly traded shares of NAFH’s Class A common stock outstanding than if the initial public offering is completed as anticipated and, as a result, the value and liquidity of NAFH’s shares of Class A common stock that you receive in the merger may be adversely affected.

The shares of NAFH’s Class A common stock to the cease and desist order to which the FDIC has sought the Bank’s consent, its andbe received by the Company’s operations, liquidity and capital resources could be negatively impacted.shareholders as a result of the merger will have different rights than the shares of the Company’s common stock.
The FDIC is requesting thatrights associated with the Bank consentCompany’s common stock are different from the rights associated with NAFH’s Class A common stock. Certain business combinations between Green Bankshares and any holder of more than 10% Green Bankshares common stock must be approved by holders of at least 80% of the outstanding Green Bankshares common stock as well as holders of at least a majority of the shares not held by shareholder engaging in the transaction (these provisions do not apply to the issuancemerger because the merger was approved by all members of the Board of Directors of Green Bankshares). These provisions do not apply to NAFH shareholders. In addition, holders of at least 10% of Green Bankshares’ common stock may call a ceasespecial meeting of Green Bankshares shareholders, whereas special meetings of NAFH shareholders can only be called by NAFH’s Chairman, Chief Executive Officer or its Board of Directors.
Risks Relating to NAFH’s Banking Operations
Continued or worsening general business and desist ordereconomic conditions could have a material adverse effect on NAFH’s business, financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
NAFH’s business and operations are sensitive to general business and economic conditions in the United States. If the U.S. economy is unable to steadily emerge from the recent recession that began in 2007 or NAFH experiences worsening economic conditions, such as a so-called “double-dip” recession, NAFH’s growth and profitability could be adversely affected. Weak economic conditions may be characterized by deflation, fluctuations in debt and equity capital markets, including a lack of liquidity and/or depressed prices in the secondary market for mortgage loans, increased delinquencies on mortgage, consumer and commercial loans, residential and commercial real estate price declines and lower home sales and commercial activity. All of these factors would be detrimental to NAFH’s business. On August 5, 2011, Standard & Poor’s lowered the long-term sovereign credit rating of U.S. Government debt obligations from AAA to AA+. On August 8, 2011, S&P also downgraded the long-term credit ratings of U.S. government-sponsored enterprises. These actions initially have had an adverse effect on financial markets and although NAFH is unable to predict the longer-term impact on such markets and the TDFIparticipants therein, it may be material and adverse.
NAFH’s business is pursuing the issuance of a written agreement against the Bank. The Company believes that this orderalso significantly affected by monetary and written agreement will require, among other things, that the Bank maintain its capital ratios above those levels required to be considered “well-capitalized” under federal banking regulations. The Company also expects that this order and written agreement will prohibit the Bank from paying dividends to the Company and will require the Bank to, among other things, institute a plan for the reduction of charge-offs and classified assets, restrict its advances to certain classified borrowers and implement a plan for the reduction of certain loan concentrations. Because the consent order will constitute a formal enforcement action requiring the Bank to maintain specified capital levels above those required to be “well-capitalized” under the prompt corrective action provisionsrelated policies of the FDICIA,U.S. federal government, its agencies and government-sponsored entities. Changes in any of these policies are influenced by macroeconomic conditions and other factors that are beyond NAFH’s control, are difficult to predict and could have a material adverse effect on NAFH’s business, financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
The geographic concentration of NAFH’s markets in the Bank will, upon issuancesoutheastern region of the order,United States makes NAFH’s business highly susceptible to downturns in the local economies and depressed banking markets, which could be detrimental to NAFH’s financial condition.
Unlike larger financial institutions that are more geographically diversified, NAFH’s national bank subsidiary, Capital Bank, NA, which we also refer to as Capital Bank, is a regional banking franchise concentrated in the southeastern region of the United States. Capital Bank operates branches located in Florida, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee and Virginia. As of September 30, 2011, 32% of Capital Bank’s loans were in Florida, 26% were in North Carolina, 11% were in South Carolina, 30% were in Tennessee and 1% were in Virginia. A deterioration in local economic conditions in the loan market or in the residential, commercial or industrial real estate market could have a material adverse effect on the quality of Capital Bank’s portfolio, the demand for its products and services, the ability of borrowers to timely repay loans and the value of the collateral securing loans. In addition, if the population or income growth in the region is slower than projected, income levels, deposits and real estate development could be adversely affected and could result in the curtailment of NAFH’s expansion, growth and profitability. If any of these developments were to result in losses that materially and adversely affected Capital Bank’s capital, NAFH and Capital Bank might be subject to regulatory restrictions on operations and growth and to a requirement to raise additional limitationscapital.

NAFH depends on its operations includingexecutive officers and key personnel to continue the implementation of its ability to pay interestlong-term business strategy and could be harmed by the loss of their services.
NAFH believes that its continued growth and future success will depend in large part on deposits above proscribed ratesthe skills of its management team and its ability to accept, rollovermotivate and retain these individuals and other key personnel. In particular, NAFH relies on the leadership and experience in the banking industry of its Chief Executive Officer, R. Eugene Taylor. Mr. Taylor is the former Vice Chairman of Bank of America and has extensive experience executing and overseeing bank acquisitions, including NationsBank Corp.’s acquisition and integration of Bank of America, Maryland National Bank and Barnett Banks. The loss of service of Mr. Taylor or one or more of NAFH’s other executive officers or key personnel could reduce its ability to successfully implement its long-term business strategy, its business could suffer and the value of NAFH’s common stock could be materially adversely affected. Leadership changes will occur from time to time and NAFH cannot predict whether significant resignations will occur or whether NAFH will be able to recruit additional qualified personnel. NAFH believes its management team possesses valuable knowledge about the banking industry and that their knowledge and relationships would be very difficult to replicate. Although R. Eugene Taylor has entered into an employment agreement with NAFH and it is expected that, prior to the completion of the initial public offering, Christopher G. Marshall, R. Bruce Singletary and Kenneth A. Posner will have entered into employment agreements with NAFH, it is possible that they may not complete the term of their employment agreements or renew brokered deposits, whichthem upon expiration. NAFH’s success also depends on the experience of Capital Bank’s branch managers and lending officers and on their relationships with the customers and communities they serve. The loss of these key personnel could adversely affectnegatively impact NAFH’s banking operations. The loss of key personnel, or the Bank’s liquidity and/inability to recruit and retain qualified personnel in the future, could have an adverse effect on NAFH’s business, financial condition or operating results. If
Capital Bank’s loss sharing agreements impose restrictions on the operation of its business; failure to comply with the terms of the loss sharing agreements with the FDIC or other regulatory agreements or orders may result in significant losses or regulatory sanctions, and Capital Bank is exposed to unrecoverable losses on the Failed Banks’ assets that it acquired.
In July 2010, Capital Bank purchased substantially all of the assets and assumed all of the deposits and certain other liabilities of three failed banks, Metro Bank of Dade County (Miami, Florida), Turnberry Bank (Aventura, Florida) and First National Bank of the South (Spartanburg, South Carolina), (the “Failed Banks”) in FDIC-assisted transactions, and a material portion of its revenue is derived from such assets. Certain of the purchased assets are covered by the loss sharing agreements with the FDIC, which provide that the FDIC will bear 80% of losses on the covered loan assets acquired in the acquisition of the Failed Banks. Capital Bank is subject to audit by the FDIC at its discretion to ensure it is in compliance with the terms of these agreements. Capital Bank may experience difficulties in complying with the requirements of the loss sharing agreements, the terms of which are extensive and failure to comply with any of the terms could result in a specific asset or group of assets losing their loss sharing coverage.
The FDIC has the right to refuse or delay payment partially or in full for such loan losses if Capital Bank fails to comply with the terms of the loss sharing agreements, which are extensive. Additionally, the loss sharing agreements are limited in duration. Therefore, any losses that Capital Bank experiences after the terms of the loss sharing agreements have ended will not be recoverable from the FDIC, and would negatively impact net income.
Capital Bank’s loss sharing agreements also impose limitations on how it manages loans covered by loss sharing. For example, under the loss sharing agreements, Capital Bank is not permitted to sell a covered loan even if in the ordinary course of business it is determined that taking such action would be advantageous. These restrictions could impair Capital Bank’s ability to manage problem loans and extend the amount of time that such loans remain on its balance sheet and could negatively impact Capital Bank’s business, financial condition, liquidity and results of operations.
In addition to the loss sharing agreements, in August 2010, Capital Bank entered into an Operating Agreement with the OCC (which we refer to as the “OCC Operating Agreement”), in connection with the acquisition of the Failed Banks. Capital Bank (and, with respect to certain provisions, the Company and NAFH) is also subject to an Order of the FDIC, dated July 16, 2010 (which we refer to as the “FDIC Order”) issued in connection with the FDIC’s approval of NAFH’s deposit insurance applications for the Failed Banks. The OCC Operating Agreement and the FDIC Order require that Capital Bank maintain various financial and capital ratios and require prior regulatory notice and consent to take certain actions in connection with operating the business and they restrict Capital Bank’s ability to pay dividends to NAFH and the Company and to make changes to its capital structure. A failure by NAFH or Capital Bank to comply with the requirements of the consent order, afterOCC Operating Agreement or the FDIC Order could subject NAFH to regulatory sanctions; and failure to comply, or the objection, or imposition of additional conditions, by the OCC or the FDIC, in connection with any materials or information submitted thereunder, could prevent NAFH from executing its business strategy and negatively impact its business, financial condition, liquidity and results of operations.

Any requested or required changes in how NAFH determines the impact of loss share accounting on its financial information could have a material adverse effect on NAFH’s reported results.
A material portion of NAFH’s financial results is based on loss share accounting, which is subject to assumptions and judgments made by NAFH, its accountants and the regulatory agencies to whom NAFH and Capital Bank report such information. Loss share accounting is a complex accounting methodology. If these assumptions are incorrect or the accountants or the regulatory agencies to whom NAFH and Capital Bank report require that management change or modify these assumptions, such change or modification could have a material adverse effect on NAFH’s financial condition, operations or previously reported results. As such, any financial information generated through the use of loss share accounting is subject to modification or change. Any significant modification or change in such information could have a material adverse effect on NAFH’s results of operations and NAFH’s previously reported results.
NAFH’s financial information reflects the application of the acquisition method of accounting. Any change in the assumptions used in such methodology could have an adverse effect on NAFH’s results of operations.
As a result of NAFH’s recent acquisitions, NAFH’s financial results are heavily influenced by the application of the acquisition method of accounting. The acquisition method of accounting requires management to make assumptions regarding the assets purchased and liabilities assumed to determine their fair market value. Capital Bank’s interest income, interest expense and net interest margin (which were equal to $148.1 million, $23.5 million and 4.18%, respectively, in the first nine months of 2011) reflect the impact of accretion of the fair value adjustments made to the carrying amounts of interest earning assets and interest bearing liabilities and Capital Bank’s non-interest income (which totaled $24.6 million in the first nine months of 2011) for periods subsequent to the acquisitions includes the effects of discount accretion and amortization of the FDIC indemnification asset. In addition, the balances of non-performing assets were significantly reduced by the adjustments to fair value recorded in conjunction with the relevant acquisition. If NAFH’s assumptions are incorrect or the regulatory agencies to whom NAFH reports require that NAFH change or modify its assumptions, such change or modification could have a material adverse effect on NAFH’s financial condition or results of operations or NAFH’s previously reported results.
Our business is highly susceptible to credit risk.
As a lender, Capital Bank is exposed to the risk that its customers will be unable to repay their loans according to their terms and that the collateral (if any) securing the payment of their loans may not be sufficient to assure repayment. The risks inherent in making any loan include risks with respect to the period of time over which the loan may be repaid, risks relating to proper loan underwriting and guidelines, risks resulting from changes in economic and industry conditions, risks inherent in dealing with individual borrowers and risks resulting from uncertainties as to the future value of collateral. The credit standards, procedures and policies that Capital Bank has established for borrowers may not prevent the incurrence of substantial credit losses.
Although Capital Bank does not have a long enough operating history to have restructured many of its loans for borrowers in financial difficulty, in the future, it may restructure originated or acquired loans if Capital Bank believes the borrowers have a viable business plan to fully pay off all obligations. However, for its originated loans, if interest rates or other terms are modified upon extension of credit or if terms of an existing loan are renewed in such a situation and a concession is granted, Capital Bank may be required to classify such action as a troubled debt restructuring (which we refer to as a “TDR”). Capital Bank would classify loans as TDRs when certain modifications are made to the loan terms and concessions are granted to the borrowers due to their financial difficulty. Generally, these loans would be restructured to provide the borrower additional time to execute its business plan. With respect to restructured loans, Capital Bank may grant concessions by (1) reduction of the stated interest rate for the remaining original life of the debt or (2) extension of the maturity date at a stated interest rate lower than the current market rate for new debt with similar risk. In situations where a TDR is unsuccessful and the borrower is unable to satisfy the terms of the restructured agreement, the loan would be placed on nonaccrual status and written down to the underlying collateral value.

Recent economic and market developments and the potential for continued economic disruption present considerable risks to NAFH and it is issued,difficult to determine the depth and duration of the economic and financial market problems and the many ways in which they may impact NAFH’s business in general. Any failure to manage such credit risks may materially adversely affect NAFH’s business and its consolidated results of operations and financial condition.
A significant portion of Capital Bank’s loan portfolio is secured by real estate, and events that negatively impact the real estate market could hurt its business.
A significant portion of Capital Bank’s loan portfolio is secured by real estate. As of September 30, 2011, approximately 85% of Capital Bank’s loans had real estate as a primary or secondary component of collateral. The real estate collateral in each case provides an alternate source of repayment in the event of default by the borrower and may deteriorate in value during the time the credit is extended. A continued weakening of the real estate market in Capital Bank’s primary market areas could continue to result in an increase in the number of borrowers who default on their loans and a reduction in the value of the collateral securing their loans, which in turn could have an adverse effect on Capital Bank’s profitability and asset quality. If Capital Bank is required to liquidate the collateral securing a loan to satisfy the debt during a period of reduced real estate values, its earnings and shareholders’ equity could be adversely affected. For example, the housing market has been in a four-year recession. Home prices declined by 4.1% (as measured by the S&P/Case-Shiller Home Price Indices) in the first quarter of 2011 (representing a decline of 5.1% versus the first quarter of 2010) and increased by 3.6% in the second quarter of 2011 (representing a decline of 5.9% versus the second quarter of 2010). Further declines in home prices coupled with a deepened economic recession and continued rises in unemployment levels could drive losses beyond the level that is provided for in Capital Bank’s allowance for loan losses. In that event, Capital Bank’s earnings could be adversely affected.
Additionally, recent weakness in the secondary market for residential lending could have an adverse impact on Capital Bank’s profitability. Significant ongoing disruptions in the secondary market for residential mortgage loans have limited the market for and liquidity of most mortgage loans other than conforming Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac loans. The effects of ongoing mortgage market challenges, combined with the ongoing correction in residential real estate market prices and reduced levels of home sales, could result in further price reductions in single family home values, adversely affecting the value of collateral securing mortgage loans held, any future mortgage loan originations and gains on sale of mortgage loans. Continued declines in real estate values and home sales volumes and financial stress on borrowers as a result of job losses or other factors could have further adverse effects on borrowers that result in higher delinquencies and charge-offs in future periods, which could adversely affect Capital Bank’s financial position and results of operations.
Capital Bank’s construction and land development loans are based upon estimates of costs and the values of the complete projects.
While Capital Bank intends to focus on originating loans other than non-owner occupied commercial real estate loans, its portfolio includes construction and land development loans (which we refer to as “C&D loans”) extended to builders and developers, primarily for the construction and/or development of properties. These loans have been extended on a presold and speculative basis and they include loans for both residential and commercial purposes.
In general, C&D lending involves additional risks because of the inherent difficulty in estimating a property’s value both before and at completion of the project. Construction costs may exceed original estimates as a result of increased materials, labor or other costs. In addition, because of current uncertainties in the residential and commercial real estate markets, property values have become more difficult to determine than they have been historically. The repayment of construction and land acquisition and development loans is often dependent, in part, on the ability of the borrower to sell or lease the property. These loans also require ongoing monitoring. In addition, speculative construction loans to a residential builder are often associated with homes that are not presold and, thus, pose a greater potential risk than construction loans to individuals on their personal residences. Slowing housing sales have been a contributing factor to an increase in non-performing loans as well as an increase in delinquencies.
As of September 30, 2011, C&D loans totaled $575.1 million (or 13% of Capital Bank’s total loan portfolio), of which $89.9 million was for construction and/or development of residential properties and $485.2 million was for construction/development of commercial properties. As of September 30, 2011, non-performing C&D loans covered under FDIC loss share agreements totaled $40.5 million and non-performing C&D loans not covered under FDIC loss share agreements totaled $135.8 million.

Capital Bank’s non-owner occupied commercial real estate loans may be dependent on factors outside the control of its borrowers.
While Capital Bank intends to focus on originating loans other than non-owner occupied commercial real estate loans, in the acquisitions it acquired non-owner occupied commercial real estate loans for individuals and businesses for various purposes, which are secured by commercial properties. These loans typically involve repayment dependent upon income generated, or expected to be generated, by the property securing the loan in amounts sufficient to cover operating expenses and debt service. This may be adversely affected by changes in the economy or local market conditions. Non-owner occupied commercial real estate loans expose a lender to greater credit risk than loans secured by residential real estate because the collateral securing these loans typically cannot be liquidated as easily as residential real estate. In such cases, Capital Bank may be compelled to modify the terms of the loan or engage in other potentially expensive work-out techniques. If Capital Bank forecloses on a non-owner occupied commercial real estate loan, the holding period for the collateral typically is longer than a 1-4 family residential property because there are fewer potential purchasers of the collateral. Additionally, non-owner occupied commercial real estate loans generally have relatively large balances to single borrowers or related groups of borrowers. Accordingly, charge-offs on non-owner occupied commercial real estate loans may be larger on a per loan basis than those incurred with Capital Bank’s residential or consumer loan portfolios.
As of September 30, 2011, Capital Bank’s non-owner occupied commercial real estate loans totaled $950.4 million (or 22% of its total loan portfolio). As of September 30, 2011, non-performing non-owner occupied commercial real estate loans covered under FDIC loss share agreements totaled $27.2 million and non-performing non-owner occupied commercial real estate loans not covered under FDIC loss share agreements totaled $50.0 million.
Repayment of Capital Bank’s commercial business loans is dependent on the cash flows of borrowers, which may be unpredictable, and the collateral securing these loans may fluctuate in value.
Capital Bank’s business plan focuses on originating different types of commercial business loans. Capital Bank classifies the types of commercial loans offered as owner-occupied term real estate loans, business lines of credit and term equipment financing. Commercial business lending involves risks that are different from those associated with non-owner occupied commercial real estate lending. Capital Bank’s commercial business loans are primarily underwritten based on the cash flow of the borrower and secondarily on the underlying collateral, including real estate. The borrowers’ cash flow may be unpredictable, and collateral securing these loans may fluctuate in value. Some of Capital Bank’s commercial business loans are collateralized by equipment, inventory, accounts receivable or other business assets, and the liquidation of collateral in the event of default is often an insufficient source of repayment because accounts receivable may be uncollectible and inventories may be obsolete or of limited use.
As of September 30, 2011, Capital Bank’s commercial business loans totaled $1.3 billion (or 29% of its total loan portfolio). Of this amount, $844.7 million was secured by owner-occupied real estate and $439.1 million was secured by business assets. As of September 30, 2011, non-performing commercial business loans covered under FDIC loss share agreements totaled $18.7 million and non-performing commercial business loans not covered under FDIC loss share agreements totaled $67.4 million.
Capital Bank’s allowance for loan losses and fair value adjustments may prove to be insufficient to absorb losses for loans that it originates.
Lending money is a substantial part of Capital Bank’s business and each loan carries a certain risk that it will not be repaid in accordance with its terms or that any underlying collateral will not be sufficient to assure repayment. This risk is affected by, among other things:
cash flow of the borrower and/or the project being financed;
the changes and uncertainties as to the future value of the collateral, in the case of a collateralized loan;
the duration of the loan;
the discount on the loan at the time of acquisition;
the credit history of a particular borrower; and
changes in economic and industry conditions.
Non-performing loans covered under loss share agreements with the FDIC totaled $128.7 million, and Non-performing loans not covered under loss share agreements with the FDIC totaled $296.8 million as of September 30, 2011. Capital Bank maintains an allowance for loan losses with respect to loans it originates, which is a reserve established through a provision for loan losses charged to expense, which management believes is appropriate to provide for probable losses in Capital Bank’s loan portfolio. The amount of this allowance is determined by Capital Bank’s management team through periodic reviews. As of September 30, 2011, the allowance on loans covered by loss share agreements with the FDIC was $7.0 million, and the allowance on loans not covered by loss share agreements with the FDIC was $10.1 million. As of September 30, 2011, the ratio of Capital Bank’s allowance for loan losses to non-performing loans covered by loss share agreements with the FDIC was 5.4% and the ratio of its allowance for loan losses to non-performing loans not covered by loss share agreements with the FDIC was 3.4%.

52


The application of the acquisition method of accounting to NAFH’s completed acquisitions impacted Capital Bank’s allowance for loan losses. Under the acquisition method of accounting, all loans were recorded in financial statements at their fair value at the time of their acquisition and the related allowance for loan loss was eliminated because the fair value at the time was determined by the net present value of the expected cash flows taking into consideration estimated credit quality. Capital Bank may in the future determine that the estimates of fair value are too high, in which case Capital Bank would provide for additional loan losses associated with the acquired loans. As of September 30, 2011, the allowance for loan losses on purchased credit-impaired loan pools totaled $10.5 million, of which $7.0 million was related to loan pools covered by loss share agreements with the FDIC and $3.5 million was related to loan pools not covered by loss share agreements with the FDIC.
The determination of the appropriate level of the allowance for loan losses inherently involves a high degree of subjectivity and requires Capital Bank to make significant estimates of current credit risks and future trends, all of which may undergo material changes. Changes in economic conditions affecting borrowers, new information regarding existing loans that Capital Bank originates, identification of additional problem loans originated by Capital Bank and other factors, both within and outside of management’s control, may require an increase in the allowance for loan losses. If current trends in the real estate markets continue, Capital Bank’s management expects that it will continue to experience increased delinquencies and credit losses, particularly with respect to construction, land development and land loans. In addition, bank regulatory agencies periodically review Capital Bank’s allowance for loan losses and may require an increase in the provision for probable loan losses or the recognition of further loan charge-offs, based on judgments different than those of management. In addition, if charge-offs in future periods exceed the allowance for loan losses, Capital Bank will need additional provisions to increase the allowance for loan losses. Any increases in the allowance for loan losses will result in a decrease in net income and, possibly, capital and may have a material adverse effect on Capital Bank’s financial condition and results of operations.
Capital Bank continues to hold and acquire other real estate, which has led to increased operating expenses and vulnerability to additional declines in real property values.
Capital Bank forecloses on and take title to the real estate serving as collateral for many of its loans as part of its business. Real estate owned by Capital Bank and not used in the ordinary course of its operations is referred to as “other real estate owned” or “OREO” property. At September 30, 2011, Capital Bank had $152.5 million of OREO. Increased OREO balances have led to greater expenses as costs are incurred to manage and dispose of the properties. Capital Bank’s management expects that its earnings will continue to be negatively affected by various expenses associated with OREO, including personnel costs, insurance and taxes, completion and repair costs, valuation adjustments and other expenses associated with property ownership, as well as by the funding costs associated with assets that are tied up in OREO. Any further decrease in real estate market prices may lead to additional OREO write-downs, with a corresponding expense in Capital Bank’s statement of operations. Capital Bank’s management evaluates OREO properties periodically and writes down the carrying value of the properties if the results of such evaluations require it. The expenses associated with OREO and any further property write-downs could have a material adverse effect on Capital Bank’s financial condition and results of operations.
Capital Bank is subject to environmental liability risk associated with lending activities.
A significant portion of Capital Bank’s loan portfolio is secured by real property. During the ordinary course of business, Capital Bank may foreclose on and take title to properties securing certain loans. In doing so, there is a risk that hazardous or toxic substances could be found on these properties. If hazardous or toxic substances are found, Capital Bank may be liable for remediation costs, as well as for personal injury and property damage. Environmental laws may require Capital Bank to incur substantial expenses to address unknown liabilities and may materially reduce the affected property’s value or limit the Bank’s ability to use or sell the affected property. In addition, future laws or more stringent interpretations or enforcement policies with respect to existing laws may increase Capital Bank’s exposure to environmental liability. Although Capital Bank has policies and procedures to perform an environmental review before initiating any foreclosure action on nonresidential real property, these reviews may not be sufficient to detect all potential environmental hazards. The remediation costs and any other financial liabilities associated with an environmental hazard could have a material adverse effect on Capital Bank’s financial condition and results of operations.

53


Delinquencies and defaults in residential mortgages have increased, creating a backlog in courts and an increase in industry scrutiny by regulators, as well as proposed new laws and regulations governing foreclosures. Such laws and regulations might restrict or delay Capital Bank’s ability to foreclose and collect payments for single family residential loans under the loss sharing agreements.
Recent laws delay the initiation or completion of foreclosure proceedings on specified types of residential mortgage loans (some for a limited period of time), or otherwise limit the ability of residential loan servicers to take actions that may be essential to preserve the value of the mortgage loans. Any such limitations are likely to cause delayed or reduced collections from mortgagors and generally increased servicing costs. As a servicer of mortgage loans, any restriction on Capital Bank’s ability to foreclose on a loan, any requirement that the Bank forego a portion of the amount otherwise due on a loan or any requirement that the Bank modify any original loan terms will in some instances require Capital Bank to advance principal, interest, tax and insurance payments, which may negatively impact its business, financial condition, liquidity and results of operations.
In addition, for the single family residential loans covered by the loss sharing agreements, Capital Bank cannot collect loss share payments until it liquidates the properties securing those loans. These loss share payments could be delayed by an extended foreclosure process, including delays resulting from a court backlog, local or national foreclosure moratoriums or other delays, and these delays could have a material adverse effect on Capital Bank’s results of operations.
Like other financial services institutions, Capital Bank’s asset and liability structures are monetary in nature. Such structures are affected by a variety of factors, including changes in interest rates, which can impact the value of financial instruments held by the Bank.
Like other financial services institutions, Capital Bank has asset and liability structures that are essentially monetary in nature and are directly affected by many factors, including domestic and international economic and political conditions, broad trends in business and finance, legislation and regulation affecting the national and international business and financial communities, monetary and fiscal policies, inflation, currency values, market conditions, the availability and cost of short-term or long-term funding and capital, the credit capacity or perceived creditworthiness of customers and counterparties and the level and volatility of trading markets. Such factors can impact customers and counterparties of a financial services institution and may impact the value of financial instruments held by a financial services institution.
Capital Bank’s earnings and cash flows largely depend upon the level of its net interest income, which is the difference between the interest income it earns on loans, investments and other interest earning assets, and the interest it pays on interest bearing liabilities, such as deposits and borrowings. Because different types of assets and liabilities may react differently and at different times to market interest rate changes, changes in interest rates can increase or decrease Capital Bank’s net interest income. When interest-bearing liabilities mature or reprice more quickly than interest earning assets in a period, an increase in interest rates could reduce net interest income. Similarly, when interest earning assets mature or reprice more quickly, and because the magnitude of repricing of interest earning assets is often greater than interest bearing liabilities, falling interest rates could reduce net interest income.
Additionally, an increase in interest rates may, among other things, reduce the demand for loans and Capital Bank’s ability to originate loans and decrease loan repayment rates, while a decrease in the general level of interest rates may adversely affect the fair value of the Bank’s financial assets and liabilities and its ability to realize gains on the sale of assets. A decrease in the general level of interest rates may affect Capital Bank through, among other things, increased prepayments on its loan and mortgage-backed securities portfolios and increased competition for deposits.
Accordingly, changes in the level of market interest rates affect Capital Bank’s net yield on interest earning assets, loan origination volume, loan and mortgage-backed securities portfolios and its overall results. Changes in interest rates may also have a significant impact on any future mortgage loan origination revenues. Historically, there has been an inverse correlation between the demand for mortgage loans and interest rates. Mortgage origination volume and revenues usually decline during periods of rising or high interest rates and increase during periods of declining or low interest rates. Changes in interest rates also have a significant impact on the carrying value of a significant percentage of the assets on Capital Bank’s balance sheet. Interest rates are highly sensitive to many factors beyond the Bank’s management’s control, including general economic conditions and policies of various governmental and regulatory agencies, particularly the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (which we refer to as the “Federal Reserve”). Capital Bank’s management cannot predict the nature and timing of the Federal Reserve’s interest rate policies or other changes in monetary policies and economic conditions, which could negatively impact the Bank’s financial performance.

54


Capital Bank has benefited in recent periods from a favorable interest rate environment, but management believes that this environment cannot be sustained indefinitely and interest rates would be expected to rise as the economy recovers. A strengthening U.S. economy would be expected to cause the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve to increase short-term interest rates, which would increase Capital Bank’s borrowing costs.
The fair value of Capital Bank’s investment securities can fluctuate due to market conditions out of management’s control.
As of September 30, 2011, approximately 94% of Capital Bank’s investment securities portfolio was comprised of U.S. government agency and sponsored enterprises obligations, U.S. government agency and sponsored enterprises mortgage-backed securities and securities of municipalities. As of September 30, 2011, the fair value of Capital Bank’s investment securities portfolio was approximately $783.1 million. Factors beyond Capital Bank’s control can significantly influence the fair value of securities in its portfolio and can cause potential adverse changes to the fair value of these securities. These factors include, but are not limited to, rating agency downgrades of the securities, defaults by the issuer or with respect to the underlying securities, changes in market interest rates and continued instability in the credit markets. In addition, Capital Bank has historically taken a conservative investment posture, concentrating on government issuances of short duration. In the future, Capital Bank may seek to increase yields through more aggressive investment strategies, which may include a greater percentage of corporate issuances and structured credit products. Any of these mentioned factors, among others, could cause other-than-temporary impairments in future periods and result in a realized loss, which could have a material adverse effect on Capital Bank’s business. The process for determining whether impairment is other-than-temporary usually requires complex, subjective judgments about the future financial performance of the issuer and any collateral underlying the security in order to assess the probability of receiving all contractual principal and interest payments on the security. Because of changing economic and market conditions affecting issuers and the performance of the underlying collateral, Capital Bank may recognize realized and/or unrealized losses in future periods, which could have an adverse effect on its financial condition and results of operations.
Capital Bank has a significant deferred tax asset that may not be fully realized in the future.
Capital Bank’s net deferred tax asset totaled $134.6 million as of September 30, 2011. The ultimate realization of a deferred tax asset is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods prior to the expiration of any applicable net operating losses. If Capital Bank’s estimates and assumptions about future taxable income are not accurate, the value of its deferred tax asset may not be recoverable and may result in a valuation allowance that would impact the Bank’s earnings.
Recent market disruptions have caused increased liquidity risks and, if Capital Bank is unable to maintain sufficient liquidity, it may not be able to meet the cash flow requirements of its depositors and borrowers.
The recent disruption and illiquidity in the credit markets have generally made potential funding sources more difficult to access, less reliable and more expensive. Capital Bank’s liquidity is generally used to make loans and to repay deposit liabilities as they become due or are demanded by customers, and further deterioration in the credit markets or a prolonged period without improvement of market liquidity could present significant challenges in the management of Capital Bank’s liquidity and could adversely affect its business, results of operations and prospects. For example, if as a result of a sudden decline in depositor confidence resulting from negative market conditions, a substantial number of bank customers tried to withdraw their bank deposits simultaneously, Capital Bank’s reserves may not be able to cover the withdrawals.
Furthermore, an inability to increase Capital Bank’s deposit base at all or at attractive rates would impede its ability to fund the Bank’s continued growth, which could have an adverse effect on the Bank’s business, results of operations and financial condition. Collateralized borrowings such as advances from the FHLB are an important potential source of liquidity. Capital Bank’s borrowing capacity is generally dependent on the value of the collateral pledged to the FHLB. An adverse regulatory change could reduce Capital Bank’s borrowing capacity or eliminate certain types of collateral and could otherwise modify or even eliminate the Bank’s access to FHLB advances, Federal Fund line borrowings and discount window advances. Liquidity may also be adversely impacted by bank supervisory and regulatory authorities mandating changes in the composition of Capital Bank’s balance sheet to asset classes that are less liquid. Any such change or termination may have an adverse effect on Capital Bank’s liquidity.

55


Capital Bank’s access to other funding sources could be impaired by factors that are not specific to the Bank, such as a disruption in the financial markets or negative views and expectations about the prospects for the financial services industry in light of recent turmoil faced by banking organizations and the unstable credit markets. Capital Bank may need to incur additional debt in the future to achieve its business objectives, in connection with future acquisitions or for other reasons. Any borrowings, if sought, may not be available to Capital Bank or, if available, may not be on favorable terms. Without sufficient liquidity, Capital Bank may not be able to meet the cash flow requirements of its depositors and borrowers, which could have a material adverse effect on the Bank’s financial condition and results of operations.
Capital Bank may not be able to retain or develop a strong core deposit base or other low-cost funding sources.
Capital Bank expects to depend on checking, savings and money market deposit account balances and other forms of customer deposits as its primary source of funding for the Bank’s lending activities. Capital Bank’s future growth will largely depend on its ability to retain and grow a strong deposit base. Because 52% of Capital Bank’s deposits as of September 30, 2011 were time deposits, it may prove harder to maintain and grow the Bank’s deposit base than would otherwise be the case. Capital Bank is also working to transition certain of its customers to lower cost traditional banking services as higher cost funding sources, such as high interest certificates of deposit, mature. There may be competitive pressures to pay higher interest rates on deposits, which could increase funding costs and compress net interest margins. Customers may not transition to lower yielding savings or investment products or continue their business with Capital Bank, which could adversely affect its operations. In addition, with recent concerns about bank failures, customers have become concerned about the extent to which their deposits are insured by the FDIC, particularly customers that may maintain deposits in excess of insured limits. Customers may withdraw deposits in an effort to ensure that the amount that they have on deposit with Capital Bank is fully insured and may place them in other institutions or make investments that are perceived as being more secure. Further, even if Capital Bank is able to grow and maintain its deposit base, the account and deposit balances can decrease when customers perceive alternative investments, such as the stock market, as providing a better risk/return tradeoff. If customers move money out of bank deposits and into other investments (or similar products at other institutions that may provide a higher rate of return), Capital Bank could lose a relatively low cost source of funds, increasing its funding costs and reducing the Bank’s net interest income and net income. Additionally, any such loss of funds could result in lower loan originations, which could materially negatively impact Capital Bank’s growth strategy and results of operations.
Capital Bank operates in a highly competitive industry and faces significant competition from other financial institutions and financial services providers, which may decrease its growth or profits.
Consumer and commercial banking is highly competitive. Capital Bank’s market contains not only a large number of community and regional banks, but also a significant presence of the country’s largest commercial banks. Capital Bank competes with other state and national financial institutions as well as savings and loan associations, savings banks and credit unions for deposits and loans. In addition, Capital Bank competes with financial intermediaries, such as consumer finance companies, mortgage banking companies, insurance companies, securities firms, mutual funds and several government agencies as well as major retailers, all actively engaged in providing various types of loans and other financial services. Some of these competitors may have a long history of successful operations in Capital Bank’s markets, greater ties to local businesses and more expansive banking relationships, as well as better established depositor bases. Competitors with greater resources may possess an advantage by being capable of maintaining numerous banking locations in more convenient sites, operating more ATMs and conducting extensive promotional and advertising campaigns or operating a more developed Internet platform.
The financial services industry could become even more competitive as a result of legislative, regulatory and technological changes and continued consolidation. Banks, securities firms and insurance companies can merge under the umbrella of a financial holding company, which can offer virtually any type of financial service, including banking, securities underwriting, insurance (both agency and underwriting) and merchant banking. Increased competition among financial services companies due to the recent consolidation of certain competing financial institutions may adversely affect Capital Bank’s ability to market its products and services. Also, technology has lowered barriers to entry and made it possible for banks to compete in Capital Bank’s market without a retail footprint by offering competitive rates, as well as non-banks to offer products and services traditionally provided by banks. Many of Capital Bank’s competitors have fewer regulatory constraints and may have lower cost structures. Additionally, due to their size, many competitors may offer a broader range of products and services as well as better pricing for certain products and services than Capital Bank can.

Capital Bank’s ability to compete successfully depends on a number of factors, including:
the ability to develop, maintain and build upon long-term customer relationships based on quality service and high ethical standards;
the ability to attract and retain qualified employees to operate the Bank’s business effectively;
the ability to expand the Bank’s market position;
the scope, relevance and pricing of products and services offered to meet customer needs and demands;
the rate at which the Bank introduces new products and services relative to its competitors;
customer satisfaction with the Bank’s level of service; and
industry and general economic trends.
Failure to perform in any of these areas could significantly weaken Capital Bank’s competitive position, which could adversely affect its growth and profitability, which, in turn, could harm the Bank’s business, financial condition and results of operations.
Capital Bank is subject to losses due to the errors or fraudulent behavior of employees or third parties.
Capital Bank is exposed to many types of operational risk, including the risk of fraud by employees and outsiders, clerical recordkeeping errors and transactional errors. Capital Bank’s business is dependent on its employees as well as third-party service providers to process a large number of increasingly complex transactions. Capital Bank could be materially adversely affected if one of its employees causes a significant operational breakdown or failure, either as a result of human error or where an individual purposefully sabotages or fraudulently manipulates the Bank’s operations or systems. When Capital Bank originates loans, it relies upon information supplied by loan applicants and third parties, including the information contained in the loan application, property appraisal and title information, if applicable, and employment and income documentation provided by third parties. If any of this information is misrepresented and such misrepresentation is not detected prior to loan funding, Capital Bank generally bears the risk of loss associated with the misrepresentation. Any of these occurrences could result in a diminished ability of Capital Bank to operate its business, potential liability to customers, reputational damage and regulatory intervention, which could negatively impact the Bank’s business, financial condition and results of operations.
Capital Bank is dependent on its information technology and telecommunications systems and third-party servicers, and systems failures, interruptions or breaches of security could have an adverse effect on the Bank’s financial condition and results of operations.
Capital Bank’s business is highly dependent on the successful and uninterrupted functioning of its information technology and telecommunications systems and third-party servicers. Capital Bank outsources many of its major systems, such as data processing, loan servicing and deposit processing systems. The failure of these systems, or the termination of a third-party software license or service agreement on which any of these systems is based, could interrupt the Bank’s operations. Because Capital Bank’s information technology and telecommunications systems interface with and depend on third-party systems, the Bank could experience service denials if demand for such services exceeds capacity or such third-party systems fail or experience interruptions. If sustained or repeated, a system failure or service denial could result in a deterioration of Capital Bank’s ability to process new and renewal loans, gather deposits and provide customer service, compromise the Bank’s ability to operate effectively, damage its reputation, result in a loss of customer business and/or subject the Bank to additional regulatory scrutiny and possible financial liability, any of which could have a material adverse effect on the Bank’s financial condition and results of operations.
In addition, Capital Bank provides its customers the ability to bank remotely, including online over the Internet. The secure transmission of confidential information is a critical element of remote banking. Capital Bank’s network could be vulnerable to unauthorized access, computer viruses, phishing schemes, spam attacks, human error, natural disasters, power loss and other security breaches. Capital Bank may be required to spend significant capital and other resources to protect against the threat of security breaches and computer viruses, or to alleviate problems caused by security breaches or viruses. To the extent that Capital Bank’s activities or the activities of its customers involve the storage and transmission of confidential information, security breaches and viruses could expose the Bank to claims, litigation and other possible liabilities. Any inability to prevent security breaches or computer viruses could also cause existing customers to lose confidence in Capital Bank’s systems and could adversely affect its reputation, results of operations and ability to attract and maintain customers and businesses. In addition, a security breach could also subject Capital Bank to additional regulatory scrutiny, expose the Bank to civil litigation and possible financial liability and cause reputational damage.

57


Hurricanes or other adverse weather events would negatively affect Capital Bank’s local economies or disrupt its operations, which would have an adverse effect on the Bank’s business or results of operations.
Capital Bank’s market areas in the southeastern region of the United States are susceptible to natural disasters, such as hurricanes, tornadoes, tropical storms, other severe weather events and related flooding and wind damage, and manmade disasters, such as the 2010 oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico. Capital Bank’s market areas in Tennessee are susceptible to natural disasters, such as tornadoes and floods. These natural disasters could negatively impact regional economic conditions, cause a decline in the value or destruction of mortgaged properties and an increase in the risk of delinquencies, foreclosures or loss on loans originated by Capital Bank, damage its banking facilities and offices and negatively impact the Bank’s growth strategy. Such weather events can disrupt operations, result in damage to properties and negatively affect the local economies in the markets where Capital Bank operates. The Bank’s management cannot predict whether or to what extent damage that may be caused by future hurricanes or tornadoes will affect Capital Bank’s operations or the economies in its current or future market areas, but such weather events could negatively impact economic conditions in these regions and result in a decline in local loan demand and loan originations, a decline in the value or destruction of properties securing Capital Bank’s loans and an increase in delinquencies, foreclosures or loan losses. Capital Bank’s business or results of operations may be adversely affected by these and other negative effects of natural or manmade disasters.
Risks Relating to Capital Bank’s Growth Strategy
Capital Bank may not be able to effectively manage its growth.
Capital Bank’s future operating results depend to a large extent on its ability to successfully manage its rapid growth. Capital Bank’s rapid growth has placed, and it may continue to place, significant demands on its operations and management. Whether through additional acquisitions or organic growth, Capital Bank’s current plan to expand its business is dependent upon:
the ability of its officers and other key employees to continue to implement and improve its operational, credit, financial, management and other internal risk controls and processes and its reporting systems and procedures in order to manage a growing number of client relationships;
to scale its technology platform;
to integrate its acquisitions and develop consistent policies throughout the various businesses; and
to manage a growing number of client relationships.
Capital Bank may not successfully implement improvements to, or integrate, its management information and control systems, procedures and processes in an efficient or timely manner and may discover deficiencies in existing systems and controls. In particular, Capital Bank’s controls and procedures must be able to accommodate an increase in expected loan volume and the infrastructure that comes with new branches and banks. Thus, Capital Bank’s growth strategy may divert management from its existing businesses and may require the Bank to incur additional expenditures to expand its administrative and operational infrastructure and, if Capital Bank is unable to effectively manage and grow its banking franchise, its business and the Bank’s consolidated results of operations and financial condition could be materially and adversely impacted. In addition, if Capital Bank is unable to manage future expansion in its operations, the Bank may experience compliance and operational problems, have to slow the pace of growth, or have to incur additional expenditures beyond current projections to support such growth, any one of which could adversely affect Capital Bank’s business.

58


Many of Capital Bank’s new activities and expansion plans require regulatory approvals, and failure to obtain them may restrict its growth.
Capital Bank intends to complement and expand its business by pursuing strategic acquisitions of banks and other financial institutions. Generally, any acquisition of target financial institutions or assets by NAFH or Capital Bank will require approval by, and cooperation from, a number of governmental regulatory agencies, possibly including the Federal Reserve, the OCC and the FDIC, as well as state banking regulators. In acting on such applications of approval, federal banking regulators consider, among other factors:
the effect of the acquisition on competition;
the financial condition and future prospects of the applicant and the banks involved;
the managerial resources of the applicant and the banks involved;
the convenience and needs of the community, including the record of performance under the Community Reinvestment Act (which we refer to as the “CRA”); and
the effectiveness of the applicant in combating money laundering activities.
Such regulators could deny an application based on the above criteria or other considerations or the regulatory approvals may not be granted on terms that are acceptable to NAFH or Capital Bank. For example, Capital Bank could be required to sell branches as a condition to receiving regulatory approvals, and such a condition may not be acceptable to NAFH or Capital Bank or may reduce the benefit of any acquisition.
The success of future transactions will depend on NAFH’s ability to successfully identify and consummate transactions with target financial institutions that meet its investment criteria. Because of the significant competition for acquisition opportunities and the limited number of potential targets, NAFH may not be able to successfully consummate acquisitions necessary to grow its business.
The success of future transactions will depend on NAFH’s ability to successfully identify and consummate transactions with target financial institutions that meet its investment criteria. There are significant risks associated with NAFH’s ability to identify and successfully consummate transactions with target financial institutions. There are a limited number of acquisition opportunities, and NAFH expects to encounter intense competition from other banking organizations competing for acquisitions and also from other investment funds and entities looking to acquire financial institutions. Many of these entities are well established and have extensive experience in identifying and effecting acquisitions directly or through affiliates. Many of these competitors possess ongoing banking operations with greater technical, human and other resources than NAFH and Capital Bank do, and NAFH’s financial resources will be relatively limited when contrasted with those of many of these competitors. These organizations may be able to achieve greater cost savings through consolidating operations than NAFH could. NAFH’s ability to compete in acquiring certain sizable target institutions will be limited by its available financial resources. These inherent competitive limitations give others an advantage in pursuing the acquisition of certain target financial institutions. In addition, increased competition may drive up the prices for the types of acquisitions NAFH intends to target, which would make the identification and successful consummation of acquisition opportunities more difficult. Competitors may be willing to pay more for target financial institutions than NAFH believes are justified, which could result in NAFH having to pay more for target financial institutions than it prefers or to forego target financial institutions. As a result of the foregoing, NAFH may be unable to successfully identify and consummate future transactions to grow its business on commercially attractive terms, or at all.
Because the institutions NAFH intends to acquire may have distressed assets, NAFH may not be able to realize the value it predicts from these assets or make sufficient provision for future losses in the value of, or accurately estimate the future write-downs taken in respect of, these assets.
Delinquencies and losses in the loan portfolios and other assets of financial institutions that NAFH acquires may exceed its initial forecasts developed during the due diligence investigation prior to acquiring those institutions.

59


Even if NAFH conducts extensive due diligence on an entity it decides to acquire, this diligence may not reveal all material issues that may affect a particular entity. The diligence process in FDIC-assisted transactions is also expedited due to the short acquisition timeline that is typical for these depository institutions. If, during the diligence process, NAFH fails to identify issues specific to an entity or the environment in which the entity operates, NAFH may be forced to later write down or write off assets, restructure its operations, or incur impairment or other charges that could result in other reporting losses. Any of these events could adversely affect the financial condition, liquidity, capital position and value of institutions NAFH acquires and of NAFH as a whole. If any of the foregoing adverse events occur with respect to one subsidiary, they may adversely affect other of NAFH’s subsidiaries or the NAFH as a whole. Current economic conditions have created an uncertain environment with respect to asset valuations and there is no certainty that NAFH will be able to sell assets of target institutions if it determines it would be in its best interests to do so. The institutions NAFH will target may have substantial amounts of asset classes for which there is currently limited or no marketability.
The success of future transactions will depend on NAFH’s ability to successfully combine the target financial institution’s business with NAFH’s existing banking business and, if NAFH experiences difficulties with the integration process, the anticipated benefits of the acquisition may not be realized fully or at all or may take longer to realize than expected.
The success of future transactions will depend, in part, on NAFH’s ability to successfully combine the target financial institution’s business with its existing banking business. As with any acquisition involving financial institutions, there may be business disruptions that result in the loss of customers or cause customers to remove their accounts and move their business to competing banking institutions. It is possible that the integration process could result in additional expenses in connection with the integration processes and the disruption of ongoing business or inconsistencies in standards, controls, procedures and policies that adversely affect Capital Bank’s ability to maintain relationships with clients, customers, depositors and employees or to achieve the anticipated benefits of the acquisition. Integration efforts, including integration of the target financial institution’s systems into Capital Bank’s systems may divert the Bank’s management’s attention and resources, and NAFH may be unable to develop, or experience prolonged delays in the development of, the systems necessary to operate its acquired banks, such as a financial reporting platform or a human resources reporting platform call center. If NAFH experiences difficulties with the integration process, the anticipated benefits of any future transaction may not be realized fully or at all or may take longer to realize than expected. Additionally, NAFH and Capital Bank may be unable to recognize synergies, operating efficiencies and/or expected benefits within expected timeframes within expected cost projections, or at all. NAFH may also not be able to preserve the goodwill of the acquired financial institution.
Projected operating results for entities to be acquired by NAFH may be inaccurate and may vary significantly from actual results.
NAFH will generally establish the pricing of transactions and the capital structure of entities to be acquired on the basis of financial projections for such entities. In general, projected operating results will be based primarily on management judgments. In all cases, projections are only estimates of future results that are based upon assumptions made at the time that the projections are developed and the projected results may vary significantly from actual results. General economic, political and market conditions, which are not predictable, can have a material adverse impact on the reliability of such projections. In the event that the projections made in connection with NAFH’s acquisitions, or future projections with respect to new acquisitions, are not accurate, such inaccuracies could materially and adversely affect Capital Bank’s business and NAFH’s consolidated results of operations and financial condition.
NAFH’s officers and directors may have conflicts of interest in determining whether to present business opportunities to NAFH or another entity with which they are, or may become, affiliated.
NAFH and Capital Bank’s officers and directors may become subject to fiduciary obligations in connection with their service on the boards of directors of other corporations. To the extent that NAFH’s officers and directors become aware of acquisition opportunities that may be suitable for entities other than NAFH to which they have fiduciary or contractual obligations, or they are presented with such opportunities in their capacities as fiduciaries to such entities, they may honor such obligations to such other entities. In addition, NAFH’s officers and directors will not have any obligation to present NAFH with any acquisition opportunity that does not fall within certain parameters of NAFH’s business. You should assume that to the extent any of NAFH’s officers or directors becomes aware of an opportunity that may be suitable both for NAFH and another entity to which such person has a fiduciary obligation or contractual obligation to present such opportunity as set forth above, he or she may first give the opportunity to such other entity or entities and may give such opportunity to NAFH only to the extent such other entity or entities reject or are unable to pursue such opportunity. In addition, you should assume that to the extent any of NAFH’s officers or directors becomes aware of an acquisition opportunity that does not fall within the above parameters but that may otherwise be suitable for NAFH, he or she may not present such opportunity to NAFH. In general, officers and directors of a corporation incorporated under Delaware law are required to present business opportunities to a corporation if the corporation could financially undertake the opportunity, the opportunity is within the corporation’s line of business and it would not be fair to the corporation and its stockholders for the opportunity not to be brought to the attention of the corporation. However, NAFH’s certificate of incorporation provides that NAFH renounce any interest or expectancy in certain acquisition opportunities that its officers or directors become aware of in connection with their service to other entities to which they have a fiduciary or contractual obligation.

Changes in accounting standards may affect how we report our financial condition and results of operations.
Our accounting policies and methods are fundamental to how we record and report our financial condition and results of operations. From time to time, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (which we refer to as the “FASB”) or other regulatory authorities change the financial accounting and reporting standards that govern the preparation of financial statements. These changes can be hard to predict and can materially impact how we record and report our financial condition and results of operations. In some cases, we could be required to apply a new or revised standard retroactively, resulting in us restating prior period financial statements.
Risks Relating to the Regulation of Capital Bank’s Industry
Capital Bank operates in a highly regulated industry and the laws and regulations that govern its operations, corporate governance, executive compensation and financial accounting, or reporting, including changes in them or Capital Bank’s failure to comply with them, may adversely affect us.
Capital Bank is subject to extensive regulation and supervision that govern almost all aspects of its operations. Intended to protect customers, depositors, consumers, deposit insurance funds and the stability of the U.S. financial system, these laws and regulations, among other matters, prescribe minimum capital requirements, impose limitations on the Company and Capital Bank’s business activities, limit the dividend or distributions that Capital Bank or the Company can pay, restrict the ability of institutions to guarantee Capital Bank’s debt and impose certain specific accounting requirements that may be more restrictive and may result in greater or earlier charges to earnings or reductions in the Bank’s capital than generally accepted accounting principles. Compliance with laws and regulations can be difficult and costly and changes to laws and regulations often impose additional compliance costs. Capital Bank is currently facing increased regulation and supervision of the industry as a result of the financial crisis in the banking and financial markets. Such additional regulation and supervision may increase Capital Bank’s costs and limit its ability to pursue business opportunities. Further, the Company, NAFH or Capital Bank’s failure to comply with these laws and regulations, even if the failure was inadvertent or reflects a difference in interpretation, could subject the Bank to restrictions on its business activities, fines and other penalties, any of which could adversely affect its results of operations, capital base and the price of NAFH’s or the Company’s securities. Further, any new laws, rules and regulations could make compliance more difficult or expensive or otherwise adversely affect Capital Bank’s business and financial condition.
Capital Bank is periodically subject to examination and scrutiny by a number of banking agencies and, depending upon the findings and determinations of these agencies, the Bank may be required to make adjustments to its business that could adversely affect it.
Federal and state banking agencies periodically conduct examinations of Capital Bank’s business, including compliance with applicable laws and regulations. If, as a result of an examination, a federal banking agency were to determine that the financial condition, capital resources, asset quality, asset concentration, earnings prospects, management, liquidity sensitivity to market risk or other aspects of any of Capital Bank’s operations has become unsatisfactory, or that the Bank or its management is in violation of any law or regulation, it could take a number of different remedial actions as it deems appropriate. These actions include the power to enjoin “unsafe or unsound” practices, to require affirmative actions to correct any conditions resulting from any violation or practice, to issue an administrative order that can be judicially enforced, to direct an increase in Capital Bank’s capital, to restrict its growth, to change the asset composition of its portfolio or balance sheet, to assess civil monetary penalties against its officers or directors, to remove officers and directors and, if it is concluded that such conditions cannot be corrected or there is an imminent risk of loss to depositors, to terminate its deposit insurance. If Capital Bank becomes subject to such regulatory actions, its business, results of operations and reputation may be negatively impacted.

61


The enactment of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 may have a material effect on Capital Bank’s operations.
On July 21, 2010, President Obama signed into law the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 (which we refer to as the “Dodd-Frank Act”), which imposes significant regulatory and compliance changes. The key effects of the Dodd-Frank Act on Capital Bank’s business are:
changes to regulatory capital requirements;
exclusion of hybrid securities, including trust preferred securities, issued on or after May 19, 2010 from Tier 1 capital;
creation of new government regulatory agencies (such as the Financial Stability Oversight Council, which will oversee systemic risk, and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, which will develop and enforce rules for bank and non-bank providers of consumer financial products);
potential limitations on federal preemption;
changes to deposit insurance assessments;
regulation of debit interchange fees the Bank earns;
changes in retail banking regulations, including potential limitations on certain fees the Bank may charge; and
changes in regulation of consumer mortgage loan origination and risk retention.
In addition, the Dodd-Frank Act restricts the ability of banks to engage in certain proprietary trading or to sponsor or invest in private equity or hedge funds. The Dodd-Frank Act also contains provisions designed to limit the ability of insured depository institutions, their holding companies and their affiliates to conduct certain swaps and derivatives activities and to take certain principal positions in financial instruments.
Some provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act became effective immediately upon its enactment. Many provisions, however, will require regulations to be promulgated by various federal agencies in order to be implemented, some of which have been proposed by the applicable federal agencies. The provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act may have unintended effects, which will not be clear until implementation. The changes resulting from the Dodd-Frank Act may impact the profitability of Capital Bank’s business activities, require changes to certain of its business practices, impose upon the Bank more stringent capital, liquidity and leverage requirements or otherwise adversely affect Capital Bank’s business. These changes may also require Capital Bank to invest significant management attention and resources to evaluate and make any changes necessary to comply with new statutory and regulatory requirements. Failure to comply with the new requirements may negatively impact Capital Bank’s results of operations and financial condition. While management cannot predict what effect any presently contemplated or future changes in the laws or regulations or their interpretations would have on Capital Bank or the Company, these changes could be materially adverse to the Company, Capital Bank and NAFH.
The short-term and long-term impact of the new regulatory capital standards and the forthcoming new capital rules is uncertain.
On September 12, 2010, the Group of Governors and Heads of Supervision, the oversight body of the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision, announced an agreement to a strengthened set of capital requirements for internationally active banking organizations in the United States and around the world, known as Basel III. Basel III increases the requirements for minimum common equity, minimum Tier 1 capital and minimum total capital, to be phased in over time until fully phased in by January 1, 2019.
Various provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act increase the capital requirements of bank holding companies, such as the Company, and non-bank financial companies that are supervised by the Federal Reserve. The leverage and risk-based capital ratios of these entities may not be lower than the leverage and risk-based capital ratios for insured depository institutions. In particular, bank holding companies, many of which have long relied on trust preferred securities as a component of their regulatory capital, will no longer be permitted to count trust preferred securities toward their Tier 1 capital. While the Basel III changes and other regulatory capital requirements will likely result in generally higher regulatory capital standards, it is difficult at this time to predict how any new standards will ultimately be applied to the Company, NAFH and Capital Bank.

62


The FDIC’s restoration plan and the related increased assessment rate could adversely affect Capital Bank’s earnings.
The FDIC insures deposits at FDIC-insured depository institutions, such as Capital Bank, up to applicable limits. The amount of a particular institution’s deposit insurance assessment is based on that institution’s risk classification under an FDIC risk-based assessment system. An institution’s risk classification is assigned based on its capital levels and the level of supervisory concern the institution poses to its regulators. Market developments have significantly depleted the deposit insurance fund of the FDIC (which we refer to as the “DIF”) and reduced the ratio of reserves to insured deposits. As a result of recent economic conditions and the enactment of the Dodd-Frank Act, the FDIC has increased the deposit insurance assessment rates and thus raised deposit premiums for insured depository institutions. If these increases are insufficient for the DIF to meet its funding requirements, there may need to be further special assessments or increases in deposit insurance premiums. Capital Bank is generally unable to control the amount of premiums that it is required to pay for FDIC insurance. If there are additional bank or financial institution failures, Capital Bank may be required to pay even higher FDIC premiums than the recently increased levels. Any future additional assessments, increases or required prepayments in FDIC insurance premiums may materially adversely affect results of operations, including by reducing Capital Bank’s profitability or limiting its ability to pursue certain business opportunities.
Capital Bank is subject to federal and state and fair lending laws, and failure to comply with these laws could lead to material penalties.
Federal and state fair lending laws and regulations, such as the Equal Credit Opportunity Act and the Fair Housing Act, impose nondiscriminatory lending requirements on financial institutions. The Department of Justice, Consumer Financial Protection Bureau and other federal and state agencies are responsible for enforcing these laws and regulations. Private parties may also have the ability to challenge an institution’s performance under fair lending laws in private class action litigation. A successful challenge to Capital Bank’s performance under the fair lending laws and regulations could adversely impact the Bank’s rating under the Community Reinvestment Act and result in a wide variety of sanctions, including the required payment of damages and civil money penalties, injunctive relief, imposition of restrictions on merger and acquisition activity and restrictions on expansion activity, which could negatively impact Capital Bank’s reputation, business, financial condition and results of operations.
Capital Bank faces a risk of noncompliance and enforcement action with the Bank Secrecy Act and other anti-money laundering statutes and regulations.
The federal Bank Secrecy Act, the Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act of 2001 (which we refer to as the “PATRIOT Act”) and other laws and regulations require financial institutions, among other duties, to institute and maintain effective anti-money laundering programs and file suspicious activity and currency transaction reports as appropriate. The federal Financial Crimes Enforcement Network, established by the U.S. Treasury Department to administer the Bank Secrecy Act, is authorized to impose significant civil money penalties for violations of those requirements and has recently engaged in coordinated enforcement efforts with the individual federal banking regulators, as well as the U.S. Department of Justice, Drug Enforcement Administration and Internal Revenue Service. There is also increased scrutiny of compliance with the rules enforced by the Office of Foreign Assets Control (which we refer to as “OFAC”). If Capital Bank’s policies, procedures and systems are deemed deficient or the policies, procedures and systems of the financial institutions that NAFH has already acquired or may acquire in the future are deficient, Capital Bank would be subject to liability, including fines and regulatory actions such as restrictions on its ability to pay dividends and the necessity to obtain regulatory approvals to proceed with certain aspects of its business plan, including its acquisition plans, which would negatively impact its business, financial condition and results of operations. Failure to maintain and implement adequate programs to combat money laundering and terrorist financing could also have serious reputational consequences for Capital Bank.
Federal, state and local consumer lending laws may restrict Capital Bank’s ability to originate certain mortgage loans or increase the Bank’s risk of liability with respect to such loans and could increase its cost of doing business.
Federal, state and local laws have been adopted that are intended to eliminate certain lending practices considered “predatory.” These laws prohibit practices such as steering borrowers away from more affordable products, selling unnecessary insurance to borrowers, repeatedly refinancing loans and making loans without a reasonable expectation that the borrowers will be able to repay the loans irrespective of the value of the underlying property. It is Capital Bank’s policy not to make predatory loans, but these laws create the potential for liability with respect to the Bank’s lending and loan investment activities. They increase Capital Bank’s cost of doing business and, ultimately, may prevent the Bank from making certain loans and cause it to reduce the average percentage rate or the points and fees on loans that it does make.

63


The Federal Reserve may require the Company or NAFH and its other subsidiaries to commit capital resources to support Capital Bank.
The Federal Reserve, which examines the Company and NAFH, requires a bank holding company to act as a source of financial and managerial strength to a subsidiary bank and to commit resources to support such subsidiary bank. Under the “source of strength” doctrine, the Federal Reserve may require a bank holding company to make capital injections into a troubled subsidiary bank and may charge the bank holding company with engaging in unsafe and unsound practices for failure to commit resources to such a subsidiary bank. In addition, the Dodd-Frank Act directs the federal bank regulators to require that all companies that directly or indirectly control an insured depository institution serve as a source of strength for the institution. Under these requirements, in the future, the Company or NAFH could be required to provide financial assistance to Capital Bank if it experiences financial distress.
A capital injection may be required at times when the Company or NAFH do not have the resources to provide it, and therefore the Company or NAFH may be required to borrow the funds. In the event of a bank holding company’s bankruptcy, the bankruptcy trustee will assume any commitment by the holding company to a federal bank regulatory agency to maintain the capital of a subsidiary bank. Moreover, bankruptcy law provides that claims based on any such commitment will be entitled to a priority of payment over the claims of the holding company’s general unsecured creditors, including the holders of its note obligations. Thus, any borrowing that must be done by the holding company in order to make the required capital injection becomes more difficult and expensive and will adversely impact the holding company’s cash flows, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.
Stockholders may be deemed to be acting in concert or otherwise in control of Capital Bank, which could impose prior approval requirements and result in adverse regulatory consequences for such holders.
The Company and NAFH are bank holding companies regulated by the Federal Reserve. Accordingly, acquisition of control of NAFH or the Company (or a bank subsidiary) requires prior regulatory notice or approval. With certain limited exceptions, federal regulations prohibit potential investors from, directly or indirectly, acquiring ownership or control of, or the power to vote, more than 10% (more than 5% if the acquiror is a bank holding company) of any class of our voting securities, or obtaining the ability to control in any manner the election of a majority of directors or otherwise exercising a controlling influence over NAFH or Capital Bank’s management or policies, without prior notice or application to, and approval of, the Federal Reserve under the Change in Bank Control Act or the Bank Holding Company Act of 1956, as amended (which we refer to as the “BHCA”). Any bank holding company or foreign bank with a U.S. presence also is required to obtain the approval of the Federal Reserve under the BHCA to acquire or retain more than 5% of the Company or NAFH’s outstanding voting securities.
In addition to regulatory approvals, any stockholder deemed to “control” the Company or NAFH for purposes of the BHCA would become subject to investment and activity restrictions and ongoing regulation and supervision. Any entity owning 25% or more of any class of the Company or NAFH’s voting securities, or a lesser percentage if such holder or group otherwise exercises a “controlling influence” over the Company or NAFH, may be subject to furtherregulation as a “bank holding company” in accordance with the BHCA. In addition, such a holder may be required to divest 5% or more of the voting securities of investments that may be deemed incompatible with bank holding company status, such as an investment in a company engaged in non-financial activities.
Regulatory determination of “control” of a depository institution or holding company is based on all of the relevant facts and circumstances. In certain instances, stockholders may be determined to be “acting in concert” and their shares aggregated for purposes of determining control for purposes of the Change in Bank Control Act. “Acting in concert” generally means knowing participation in a joint activity or parallel action towards the common goal of acquiring control of a bank or a parent company, whether or not pursuant to an express agreement. How this definition is applied in individual circumstances can vary among the various federal bank regulatory action. agencies and cannot always be predicted with certainty. Many factors can lead to a finding of acting in concert, including whether:
stockholders are commonly controlled or managed;
stockholders are parties to an oral or written agreement or understanding regarding the acquisition, voting or transfer of control of voting securities of a bank or bank holding company;

64


the holders each own stock in a bank and are also management officials, controlling stockholders, partners or trustees of another company; or
both a holder and a controlling stockholder, partner, trustee or management official of the holder own equity in the bank or bank holding company.
The FDICCompany’s or NAFH’s common stock owned by holders determined by a bank regulatory agency to be acting in concert would be aggregated for purposes of determining whether those holders have control of a bank or bank holding company for Change in Bank Control Act purposes. Because the control regulations under the Change in Bank Control Act and the TDFIBHCA are complex, potential investors should seek advice from qualified banking counsel before making an investment in the Company’s common stock.
Risks Related to NAFH’s Common Stock
The market price of NAFH’s Class A common stock could decline due to the large number of outstanding shares of its common stock eligible for future sale.
Sales of substantial amounts of NAFH’s Class A common stock in the public market following the initial public offering or in future offerings, or the perception that these sales could occur, could cause the market price of NAFH’s Class A common stock to decline. These sales could also make it more difficult for NAFH to sell equity or equity-related securities in the future, at a time and place that NAFH deems appropriate.
In addition, NAFH intends to file a registration statement on Form S-8 under the Securities Act to register additional shares of Class A common stock for issuance under NAFH’s 2010 Equity Incentive Plan. NAFH may issue all of these shares without any action or approval by NAFH’s stockholders and these shares once issued (including upon exercise of outstanding options) will be available for sale into the public market subject to the restrictions described above, if applicable to the holder. Any shares issued in connection with acquisitions, the exercise of stock options or otherwise would dilute the percentage ownership held by investors who acquire NAFH’s shares in the merger.
If shares of NAFH’s Class B non-voting common stock are converted into shares of Class A common stock, your voting power subsequent to the merger will be diluted.
Generally, holders of Class B non-voting common stock have no voting power and have no right to participate in any meeting of stockholders or to have notice thereof. However, holders of Class B non-voting common stock that are converted into Class A common stock will have all the voting rights of the other holders of Class A common stock. Class B non-voting common stock is not convertible in the hands of the initial holder. However, a transferee unaffiliated with the initial holder that receives Class B non-voting common stock subsequent to transfer permitted by NAFH’s certificate of incorporation may elect to convert each share of Class B non-voting common stock into one share of Class A common stock. Subsequent to the merger, upon conversion of any Class B non-voting common stock, your voting power will be diluted in proportion to the decrease in your ownership of the total outstanding Class A common stock.
The market price of NAFH’s Class A common stock may be volatile, which could cause the value of an investment in NAFH’s Class A common stock to decline.
The market price of NAFH’s Class A common stock may fluctuate substantially due to a variety of factors, many of which are beyond our control, including:
general market conditions;
domestic and international economic factors unrelated to NAFH or Capital Bank’s performance;
actual or anticipated fluctuations in NAFH or Capital Bank’s quarterly operating results;

65


changes in or failure to meet publicly disclosed expectations as to NAFH or Capital Bank’s future financial performance;
downgrades in securities analysts’ estimates of NAFH or Capital Bank’s financial performance or lack of research and reports by industry analysts;
changes in market valuations or earnings of similar companies;
any future sales of common stock or other securities; and
additions or departures of key personnel.
The stock markets in general have experienced substantial volatility that has often been unrelated to the operating performance of particular companies. These types of broad market fluctuations may adversely affect the trading price of NAFH’s Class A common stock. In the past, stockholders have sometimes instituted securities class action litigation against companies following periods of volatility in the market price of their securities. Any similar litigation against the Company or NAFH could result in substantial costs, divert management’s attention and resources and harm our business or results of operations. For example, we are currently operating in, and have benefited from, a protracted period of historically low interest rates that will not be sustained indefinitely, and future fluctuations in interest rates could cause an increase in volatility of the market price of NAFH’s Class A common stock.
NAFH and the Company do not currently intend to pay dividends on shares of their common stock in the foreseeable future and the ability to pay dividends will be subject to restrictions under applicable banking laws and regulations.
NAFH and the Company do not currently intend to pay cash dividends on their common stock in the foreseeable future. The payment of cash dividends in the future will be dependent upon various factors, including earnings, if any, cash balances, capital requirements and general financial condition. The payment of any dividends will be within the discretion of the then-existing Board of Directors. It is the present intention of the Boards of Directors of the Company and NAFH to retain all earnings, if any, for use in business operations in the foreseeable future and, accordingly, the Boards of Directors do not currently anticipate declaring any dividends. Because NAFH and the Company do not expect to pay cash dividends on their common stock for some time, any gains on an investment in NAFH’s Class A common stock will be limited to the appreciation, if any, of the market value of the Class A common stock.
Banks and bank holding companies are subject to certain regulatory restrictions on the payment of cash dividends. Federal bank regulatory agencies have the authority to prohibit bank holding companies from engaging in unsafe or unsound practices in conducting their business. The payment of dividends by NAFH and the Company depending on their financial condition could be deemed an unsafe or unsound practice. The ability to pay dividends will directly depend on the ability of Capital Bank to pay dividends to us, which in turn will be restricted by the requirement that it maintains an adequate level of capital in accordance with requirements of its regulators and, in the future, can be expected to be further influenced by regulatory policies and capital guidelines.In addition, on August 24, 2010, Capital Bank entered into the OCC Operating Agreement that may restrict Capital Bank’s ability to pay dividends to us, to make changes to its capital structure and to make certain other business decisions.
Certain provisions of NAFH’s certificate of incorporation and the loss sharing agreements may have anti-takeover effects, which could limit the price investors might be willing to pay in the future for the Company or NAFH’s common stock and could entrench management. In addition, Delaware law may inhibit takeovers of NAFH and could limit NAFH’s ability to engage in certain strategic transactions its Board of Directors believes would be in the best interests of stockholders.
NAFH’s certificate of incorporation contains provisions that may discourage unsolicited takeover proposals that stockholders may consider to be in their best interests. These provisions include the ability of NAFH’s Board of Directors to designate the terms of and issue new series of preferred stock, which may make the removal of management more difficult and may discourage transactions that otherwise could involve payment of a premium over prevailing market prices for NAFH’s securities, including its Class A common stock.

The loss sharing agreements with the FDIC require that Capital Bank receive prior FDIC consent, which may be withheld by the FDIC in its sole discretion, prior to NAFH, Capital Bank or the Company’s stockholders engaging in certain transactions. If any such transaction is completed without prior FDIC consent, the FDIC would have the right to discontinue the relevant loss sharing arrangement. Among other things, prior FDIC consent is required for (1) a merger or consolidation of NAFH or its bank subsidiary with or into another company if NAFH’s stockholders will own less than 66.66% of the combined company, (2) the sale of all or substantially all of the assets of any of NAFH’s bank subsidiary and (3) a sale of shares by a stockholder, or a group of related stockholders, that will effect a change in control of Capital Bank, as determined by the FDIC with reference to the standards set forth in the Change in Bank Control Act (generally, the acquisition of between 10% and 25% of any class of NAFH’s voting securities where the presumption of control is not rebutted, or the acquisition by any person, acting directly or indirectly or through or in concert with one or more persons, of 25% or more of any class of NAFH’s voting securities). If NAFH or any stockholder desired to enter into any such transaction, the FDIC may not grant its consent in a timely manner, without conditions, or at all. If one of these transactions were to occur without prior FDIC consent and the FDIC withdrew its loss share protection, there could be a material adverse effect on Capital Bank’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows. In addition, statutes, regulations and policies that govern bank holding companies, including the BHCA, may restrict NAFH’s ability to enter into certain transactions.
NAFH is also subject to anti-takeover provisions under Delaware law. NAFH has not opted out of Section 203 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (which we refer to as the “DGCL”), which, subject to certain exceptions, prohibits a public Delaware corporation from engaging in a business combination (as defined in such section) with an “interested stockholder” (defined generally as any person who beneficially owns 15% or more of the outstanding voting stock of such corporation or any person affiliated with such person) for a period of three years following the time that such stockholder became an interested stockholder, unless (1) prior to such time the board of directors of such corporation approved either the business combination or the transaction that resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder; (2) upon consummation of the transaction that resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder, the interested stockholder owned at least 85% of the voting stock of such corporation at the time the transaction commenced (excluding for purposes of determining the voting stock outstanding (but not the outstanding voting stock owned by the interested stockholder) the voting stock owned by directors who are also officers or held in employee benefit plans in which the employees do not have a confidential right to tender or vote stock held by the plan); or (3) on or subsequent to such time the business combination is approved by the board of directors of such corporation and authorized at a meeting of stockholders by the affirmative vote of at least two-thirds of the outstanding voting stock of such corporation not owned by the interested stockholder.
NAFH is a controlling shareholder and may have interests that differ from the interests of our other shareholders.
Upon completion of the NAFH Investment, NAFH owned approximately 90% of the Company’s outstanding voting power. As a result, NAFH will be able to control the election of our directors, determine our corporate and management policies and determine the outcome of any corporate transaction or other matter submitted to our shareholders for approval. Such transactions may include mergers and acquisitions (including the contemplated potential merger of the Company with and into NAFH), sales of all or some of the Company’s assets (including sales of such assets to NAFH and/or NAFH’s other subsidiaries) or purchases of assets from NAFH and/or NAFH’s other subsidiaries, and other significant corporate transactions.
Five of our seven directors, our Chief Executive Officer, our Chief Financial Officer, and our Chief Risk Officer are affiliates of NAFH. NAFH also has sufficient voting power to amend our organizational documents. The interests of NAFH may differ from those of our other shareholders, and it may take additional actions againstthat advance its interests to the Bank, including assessing civil finesdetriment of our other shareholders. Additionally, NAFH is in the business of making investments in or acquiring financial institutions and penalties, issuing additional consentmay, from time to time, acquire and hold interests in businesses that compete directly or indirectly with us. NAFH may also pursue, for its own account, acquisition opportunities that may be complementary to our business, and as a result, those acquisition opportunities may not be available to us.
This concentration of ownership could also have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change in our control or impeding a merger or consolidation, takeover or other business combination that could be favorable to the other holders of our common stock, and the trading prices of our common stock may be adversely affected by the absence or reduction of a takeover premium in the trading price.

As a controlled company, we are exempt from certain NASDAQ corporate governance requirements.
The Company’s common stock is currently listed on the NASDAQ Global Select Market. The NASDAQ generally requires a majority of directors to be independent and requires independent director oversight over the nominating and executive compensation functions. However, under the rules applicable to the NASDAQ, if another company owns more than 50% of the voting power of a listed company, that company is considered a “controlled company” and exempt from rules relating to independence of the board of directors and the compensation and nominating committees. The Company is a controlled company because NAFH beneficially owns more than 50% of the Company’s outstanding voting stock. Accordingly, the Company is exempt from certain corporate governance requirements and its shareholders may not have all the protections that these rules are intended to provide.
We may choose to voluntarily delist our common stock from NASDAQ or cease to be a reporting issuer under SEC rules.
We may choose to, or our majority shareholder NAFH may cause us to, voluntarily delist from the NASDAQ Global Select Market. If we were to delist from NASDAQ, we may or may not list ourselves on another exchange, and desist ordersmay or may not be required to continue to file periodic and removing officerscurrent reports and directors.other information as a reporting issuer under SEC rules. A delisting of our common stock could negatively impact shareholders by reducing the liquidity and market price of our common stock, reducing information available about the Company on an ongoing basis and potentially reducing the number of investors willing to hold or acquire our common stock. In addition, if we were to delist from NASDAQ, we would no longer be subject to any of the corporate governance rules applicable to NASDAQ listed companies. See also “—As a controlled company, we are exempt from certain NASDAQ corporate governance requirements.”
