EXPLANATORY NOTE

 

This Amendment No. 1 on Form 10-K/A (“Amendment No. 1”) amends Green Bancorp’s (the “Company”) Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2014 originally filed on March 31, 2015 (“Original Filing”). This Amendment No. 1 is being filed for the sole purpose of including Exhibit 23.1, the Consent of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm, which was inadvertently omitted from the Original Filing due to administrative error.

 

Except as expressly noted herein, this Amendment No. 1 does not modify or update in any way disclosures made in the Original Filing. Accordingly, this Amendment No. 1 should be read in conjunction with the Annual Report in the Original Filing. This Amendment No. 1 does not reflect events that may have occurred subsequent to the Original Filing.

 

Pursuant to Rule 12b-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, this Amendment No. 1 also contains new certifications pursuant to Section 302 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, which are attached hereto. Because no financial statements have been included in this Amendment No. 1 and this Amendment No. 1 does not contain or amend any disclosure with respect to Items 307 and 308 of Regulation S-K, paragraphs 3, 4 and 5 of the certification have been omitted.
