Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Dollars and shares in thousands except per share data)

Note 1 – Basis of Presentation & Accounting Policies

Green Bankshares, Inc. is a bank holding company headquartered in Greeneville, Tennessee. Prior to September 7, 2011, the Company conducted its business primarily through its wholly-owned subsidiary, GreenBank. On September 7, 2011 (the “Merger Date”), the Bank merged with and into Capital Bank, a subsidiary of our majority shareholder, Capital Bank Financial Corp. (CBF), in an all-stock transaction, with Capital Bank, NA as the surviving entity (the “Bank Merger”). The Company’s approximately 34% ownership interest in Capital Bank, NA is recorded as an equity-method investment in that entity. As of March 31, 2012, the Company’s investment in Capital Bank, NA totaled $318,529 which reflected the Company’s pro rata ownership of Capital Bank, NA’s total shareholders’ equity. In periods subsequent to the 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 Bank 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 March 31, 2012, 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.

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 Bank Merger, its successor entities.

Capital Bank Financial, Corp. Investment

On September 7, 2011, (the “Transaction Date”) the Company completed the issuance and sale to CBF of 119.9 million shares of common stock for aggregate consideration of $217,019 (the “CBF Investment”). The consideration consisted of approximately $148,319 in cash and approximately $68,700 in the form of a contribution to the Company of all 72,278 outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock previously issued to the U.S. Treasury Department (“Treasury”) under the TARP Capital Purchase Program and the related warrant to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock, which CBF purchased directly from the Treasury. The Series A Preferred Stock and the related warrant were retired on September 7, 2011 and are no longer outstanding.

As a result of the CBF Investment, pursuant to which CBF acquired approximately 90% of the voting securities of the Company, the Company followed the acquisition method of accounting as required by the Business Combinations Topic of the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 805, Business Combinations (“ASC 805”). Under the accounting guidance the application of “push down” accounting was applied.

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. 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 March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011 represent only the results of operations subsequent to September 7, 2011, the date of the CBF Investment.

Balances and activity in the Company’s consolidated financial statements prior to the CBF Investment have been labeled with “Predecessor Company” while balances and activity subsequent to the CBF Investment have been labeled with “Successor Company.” Balances and activity prior to the CBF Investment (Predecessor Company) are not comparable to balances and activity from periods subsequent to the CBF Investment (Successor Company) due to new accounting bases as a result of recording them at their fair values as of the CBF Investment date rather than their historical cost basis. To call attention to this lack of comparability, the Company has placed a black line between Successor Company and Predecessor Company columns in the Consolidated Financial Statements, the tables in the notes to the statements, and in the Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Critical Accounting Policies

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements for the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statement presentation. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. For further information and an additional description of the Company’s accounting policies, refer to the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2011.

The accounting and reporting policies conform to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America and conform to general practices within the banking industry. The following is a summary of the more significant of these policies.

Earnings (Loss) Per Common Share

Basic earnings (loss) per share is net income (loss) allocated to common shareholders divided by the weighted average number of common shares and vested restricted shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share includes the dilutive effect of additional potential common shares issuable under stock options, warrants and restricted shares computed using the treasury stock method.

Earnings (loss) per share have been computed based on the following for the periods ended:


	Successor Company		Predecessor Company
	Three Months Ended March 31, 2012		Three Months Ended March 31, 2011
Weighted average number of common shares outstanding:
Basic		133,160		13,109
Dilutive effect of options outstanding		—		—
Dilutive effect of restricted shares		—		—
Dilutive effect of warrants outstanding		—		—

Diluted		133,160		13,109

The dilutive effect of stock options and warrants and the dilutive effect of unvested restricted shares are the only common stock equivalents for purposes of calculating diluted earnings per common share.

Weighted average anti-dilutive stock options and warrants and unvested restricted shares excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share are as follows:


	Successor Company		Predecessor Company
	Three Months Ended March 31, 2012		Three Months Ended March 31, 2011
Anti-dilutive stock options		—		79
Anti-dilutive restricted stock awards		—		—
Anti-dilutive warrants		—		634

Income Taxes

Income tax expense (or benefit) is the total of the current year income tax due or refundable and the change in deferred tax assets and liabilities. Deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined using the liability (or balance sheet) method. Under this method, the net deferred tax asset or liability is determined based on the tax effects of the temporary differences between the book and tax basis of the various balance sheet assets and liabilities and gives current recognition to changes in tax rates and laws.

Green Bankshares, Inc.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Dollars and shares in thousands except per share data)

A tax position is recognized as a benefit only if it is “more likely than not” that the tax position would be sustained in a tax examination, with a tax examination being presumed to occur. The amount recognized is the largest amount of tax benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized on examination. For tax positions not meeting the “more likely than not” test, no tax benefit is recorded. The Company recognizes interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense.

The predecessor company filed a consolidated Federal and Tennessee income tax return for the tax period December 31, 2010 and short tax period ended September 7, 2011. For the tax periods ending December 31, 2011 and December 31, 2012, the successor company will be included in CBF’s consolidated Federal and Tennessee consolidated income tax return.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued ASU No. 2011-12, Comprehensive Income (Topic 220): Deferral of the Effective Date for Amendments to the Presentation of Reclassifications of Items out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income in Accounting Stands Update No. 2011-05. ASU 2011-12 amended one of the requirements of Update 2011-05. Under the amendments in Update 2011-05, entities are required to present reclassification adjustments and the effect of those reclassification adjustments on the face of the financial statements where net income is presented, by component of net income, and on the face of the financial statements where other comprehensive income is presented, by component of other comprehensive income. In addition, the amendments in Update 2011-05 require that reclassification adjustments be presented in interim financial periods. The amendments in this Update are effective for public entities for fiscal years, and interim periods within those years, beginning after December 15, 2011. The adoption of ASU 2011-12 did not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial condition or results of operations but will alter disclosures.

In December 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-11, “Disclosures About Offsetting Assets and Liabilities.” This project began as an attempt to converge the offsetting requirements under U.S. GAAP and IFRS. However, as the Boards were not able to reach a converged solution with regards to offsetting requirements, the Boards developed convergent disclosure requirements to assist in reconciling differences in the offsetting requirements under U.S. GAAP and IFRS. The new disclosure requirements mandate that entities disclose both gross and net information about instruments and transactions eligible for offset in the statement of financial position as well as instruments and transactions subject to an agreement similar to a master netting arrangement. ASU No. 2011-11 also requires disclosure of collateral received and posted in connection with master netting agreements or similar arrangements. ASU No. 2011-11 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. As the provisions of ASU No. 2011-11 only impact the disclosure requirements related to the offsetting of assets and liabilities, the adoption will have no impact on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

In September 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued ASU No. 2011-08, Intangibles – Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Testing Goodwill for Impairment (“ASU 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. The adoption of ASU 2011-08 did not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial condition or results of operations.

In June 2011, the FASB issued ASU No. 2011-05, 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 statement of changes in shareholders’ equity, (ii) requiring the presentation 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 statement. 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 OCI, when an item of OCI should be reclassified to net income, or the computation of earnings per share (which continues to be based on net income). ASU 2011-05 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning on or after December 15, 2011 for public companies, with early adoption permitted and retrospective application required. The adoption of ASU 2011-05 did not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial condition or results of operations but will alter disclosures.

(Dollars and shares in thousands except per share data)

In May 2011, the FASB issued ASU 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 valuation 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 all three levels of the fair value hierarchy, and (v) requires additional disclosures including transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, quantitative and qualitative information and a description of an 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, with early adoption prohibited. The adoption of ASU 2011-04 did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial condition or results of operations.

In April 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-02, Receivables. The new guidance amended existing guidance for assisting a creditor in determining whether a restructuring is a troubled debt restructuring. The amendments clarify the guidance for a creditor’s evaluation of whether it has granted a concession and whether a debtor is experiencing financial difficulties. This guidance is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after June 15, 2011, and should be applied retrospectively to the beginning of the annual period of adoption.

In January 2011, the FASB issued ASU 2011-01, Deferral of the Effective Date of Disclosures about Troubled Debt Restructurings in Update No. 2010-20, to amend ASC Topic 310, Receivables. The amendments in this update temporarily delay the effective date of the disclosures about troubled debt restructurings in ASU 2010-20 for public entities. The delay is intended to allow the FASB time to complete its deliberations on what constitutes a troubled debt restructuring. The effective date of the new disclosures about troubled debt restructurings for public entities and the guidance for determining what constitutes a troubled debt restructuring will then be coordinated.

Note 2 – Equity Method Investment in Capital Bank, NA

On September 7, 2011, GreenBank, which was formerly a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, merged with and into Capital Bank, NA, a national banking association and subsidiary of TIB Financial Corp. (the “TIB Financial”), a corporation organized under the laws of the State of Florida, Capital Bank Corporation, a corporation organized under the laws of the state of North Carolina (“Capital Bank Corp.”) and CBF, with Capital Bank, NA as the surviving entity. Pursuant to the merger agreement dated September 7, 2011, between Capital Bank, NA and the Bank, the Company exchanged its 100% ownership interest in GreenBank for an approximately 34% ownership interest in the surviving combined entity, Capital Bank, NA.

CBF is the owner of approximately 90% of the Company’s common stock, approximately 83% of Capital Bank Corp’s common stock and approximately 94% of TIB Financial’s common stock. TIB Bank, the former wholly-owned banking subsidiary of TIB Financial, merged with and into Capital Bank, NA (formerly known as NAFH National Bank) on April 29, 2011. Capital Bank, the former wholly-owned banking subsidiary of Capital Bank Corp. merged with and into Capital Bank, NA (formerly known as NAFH National Bank) on June 30, 2011.

The Company’s approximately 34% ownership interest in Capital Bank, NA is recorded as an equity-method investment in that entity. As of March 31, 2012 the Company’s investment in Capital Bank, NA totaled $318,529 which reflected the Company’s pro rata ownership of Capital Bank, NA’s total shareholders’ equity. In periods subsequent to the 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 Bank 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 March 31, 2012, 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.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

(Dollars and shares in thousands except per share data)

The mergers of the Bank, Capital Bank and TIB Bank into Capital Bank, NA were restructuring transactions between commonly-controlled entities. The difference between the amount of the Company’s initial equity method investment in Capital Bank, NA, subsequent to the Bank Merger, and the Company’s investment in the Bank, immediately preceding the Bank Merger, was accounted for as a change to additional paid in capital. Additionally, at the time of the Bank Merger, due to the de-consolidation of the Bank, the balance of accumulated other comprehensive income was reclassified as additional paid in capital. As the Company began to account for its investment in the combined entity under the equity method subsequent to September 7, 2011, the Company’s proportional share of earnings of $3,995 was recorded in “Equity in income from investment in Capital Bank, NA.” in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Income for the three months ended March 31, 2012.

At March 31, 2012, the Company’s net investment of $318,529 in Capital Bank, NA, was recorded in the Consolidated Balance Sheet as “Equity method investment in Capital Bank, NA.”

The following table presents summarized financial information for the Company’s equity method investee; Capital Bank, NA:

Note 3 – Capital Requirements

As discussed in Note 1, due to the deconsolidation of the Bank during the third quarter of 2011, no capital ratios for the Bank as of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011 are reported in the Company’s notes to consolidated financial statements.

The Company (on a consolidated basis) is subject to various regulatory capital requirements administered by federal and state banking agencies. Failure to meet minimum capital requirements results in certain discretionary and required actions by regulators that could have an effect on the Company’s operations. The regulations require the Company to meet specific capital adequacy guidelines that involve quantitative measures of assets, liabilities, and certain off-balance-sheet items as calculated under regulatory accounting practices. The Company’s capital amounts and classifications are also subject to qualitative judgments by the regulators about components, risk weightings, and other factors.

Capital Adequacy and Ratios

To be considered well capitalized and adequately capitalized (as defined) under the regulatory framework for prompt corrective action, the Bank must maintain minimum Tier 1 leverage, Tier 1 risk-based, and total risk-based ratios. At March 31, 2012 the Company maintained capital ratios exceeding the requirement to be considered adequately capitalized. These minimum amounts and ratios along with the actual amounts and ratios for the Company as of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011 are presented in the following tables.


March 31, 2012 (Successor Company)	Well Capitalized Requirement				Adequately Capitalized Requirement					Actual
March 31, 2012 (Successor Company)	Amount		Ratio		Amount		Ratio			Amount		Ratio
Tier 1 Capital (to Average Assets)
Green Bankshares, Inc.		N/A		N/A	$	12,363		4.0	%	$	310,270		100.4	%

Tier 1 Capital ( to Risk Weighted Assets)
Green Bankshares, Inc.		N/A		N/A	$	12,376		4.0	%	$	310,270		100.3	%

Total Capital (to Risk Weighted Assets)
Green Bankshares, Inc.		N/A		N/A	$	24,594		8.0	%	$	306,690		99.8	%

Management believes, as of March 31, 2012, that the Company meets all capital requirements to which they are subject. Tier 1 Capital for the Company includes the trust preferred securities that were issued in July 2001, September 2003, June 2005, December 2005 and May 2007 to the extent allowable.

During the third quarter of 2011, the FDIC and the Tennessee Department of Financial Institutions (“TDFI”) issued a consent order against the Bank aimed at strengthening the Bank’s operations and its financial condition. The order’s provisions included requirements similar to those that the Bank had 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.

Subsidiary Dividend Limitations

In August 2010, Capital Bank, NA entered into an Operating Agreement (the “OCC Operating Agreement”) with the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (the “OCC”). Currently, the OCC Operating Agreement with Capital Bank, NA prohibits the Bank from paying a dividend for three years following July 16, 2010, the date Capital Bank, NA acquired the assets and certain deposits of three failed banks from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. Once the three-year period has elapsed, the agreement imposes other restrictions on Capital Bank, NA’s ability to pay dividends including requiring prior approval from the OCC before any distribution is made.

Dividends that may be paid by a national bank without express approval of the OCC are limited to that bank’s retained net profits for the preceding two years plus retained net profits up to the date of any dividend declaration in the current calendar year. Based on the retained net profits of the Bank, declaration of dividends by the Bank to the Company during 2012, if not subject to other restrictions, would have been limited to approximately $17,620.

Note 4 – Fair Value Measurements

ASC 820-10 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 (unadjusted) for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that the entity has the ability to access as of the measurement date.

Level 2: Significant other 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.

Level 3: Significant unobservable inputs that reflect a reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.

(Dollars and shares in thousands except per share data)

Valuation of securities available for sale

The fair values of securities available for sale are determined by (1) obtaining quoted prices on nationally recognized securities exchanges when available (Level 1 inputs), (2) matrix pricing, which is a mathematical technique widely used in the industry to value debt securities without relying exclusively on quoted prices for the specific securities but rather by relying on the securities’ relationship to other benchmark quoted securities (Level 2 inputs) and (3) for collateralized debt obligations, custom discounted cash flow modeling (Level 3 inputs).

Valuation of Impaired Loans and Other Real Estate Owned

The fair value of collateral dependent impaired loans with specific allocations of the allowance for loan losses and other real estate owned is generally based on recent real estate appraisals. These appraisals may utilize a single valuation approach or a combination of approaches including comparable sales and the income approach. The Company generally uses independent external appraisers in this process who routinely make adjustments to adjust for differences between the comparable sales and income data available. Such adjustments are typically significant and result in a Level 3 classification of the inputs for determining fair value. The Company’s policy is to update appraisals, at a minimum, annually for all classified assets, which include collateral dependent loans and OREO. We consider appraisals dated within the past 12 months to be current and do not typically make adjustments to such appraisals. In the Company’s process for reviewing third-party prepared appraisals, any differences of opinion on values, assumptions or adjustments to comparable sales data are typically reconciled directly with the independent appraiser prior to acceptance of the final appraisal. As discussed in Note 2 Equity Method Investment in Capital Bank, NA, due to the deconsolidation of the Bank during the third quarter of 2011, the Company had no loans or OREO measured at fair value on a recurring or non recurring basis as of March 31, 2012 and December 31,2011.

Assets and Liabilities Measured on a Recurring Basis

As discussed in Note 2 Equity Method Investment in Capital Bank, NA, due to the deconsolidation of the Bank during the third quarter of 2011, the Company had no loans or OREO measured at fair value on a recurring or non recurring basis as of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011.

The table below presents a reconciliation and income statement classification of gains and losses for all assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) for the three months ended March 31, 2011 and held at March 31, 2011, respectively.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Forward-looking Statements

Certain of the matters discussed under the caption “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and elsewhere in this Form 10-Q may constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and as such may involve known and unknown risk, uncertainties and other factors which may cause the actual results, performance or achievements of Green Bankshares, Inc. (the “Company”) to be materially different from future results described in such forward-looking statements. Actual results may differ materially from the results anticipated in these forward-looking statements due to a variety of factors, including, without limitation: market and economic conditions, the management of our growth, the risks associated with Capital Bank, NA’s loan portfolio and real estate holdings, local economic conditions affecting retail and commercial real estate, ability to integrate our new management and directors without encountering potential difficulties, the Company’s geographic concentration in the southeastern region of the United States, the potential for the interests of the other shareholders of Capital Bank, NA to differ from those of the Company, restrictions imposed by Capital Bank, NA’s loss sharing agreements with the FDIC, the assumptions and judgments required by loss share accounting and the acquisition method of accounting, competition within the industry, dependence on key personnel, government legislation and regulation, the risks associated with identification, completion and integration of any future acquisitions, risks related to Capital Bank, NA’s technology and information systems, risks associated with the controlling interest of CBF in the Company, and risks associated with the limited liquidity of the Company’s common stock. Additional factors that could cause actual results to differ materially are discussed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K. All forward-looking statements attributable to the Company are expressly qualified in their entirety by these cautionary statements. The Company disclaims any intent or obligation to update these forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

The following discussion addresses the factors that have affected the financial condition and results of operations of the Company as reflected in the unaudited consolidated statement of condition as of March 31, 2012, and statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2012. Except as otherwise noted, dollar and share amounts in this Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations are not in thousands.

CBF Investment

On September 7, 2011, (the “Transaction Date”) the Company completed the issuance and sale to CBF of 119.9 million shares of Common Stock to CBF for aggregate consideration of $217,019,000 less $750 thousand of CBF’s expenses which were reimbursed by the Company.

The consideration consisted of approximately $147.6 million in cash and approximately $68.7 million in the form of a contribution to the Company of all 72,278 outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock previously issued to the United States Department of the Treasury under the TARP Capital Purchase Program and the related warrant to purchase shares of the Company’s Common Stock, which CBF purchased directly from the Treasury. The Series A Preferred Stock and the related warrant were retired on September 7, 2011 and are no longer outstanding. In connection with the CBF 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 CBF Investment, CBF owns approximately 90% of the issued and outstanding voting power of the Company. Upon the completion of the Investment, R. Eugene Taylor (Chairman), Christopher G. Marshall, Peter N. Foss, William A. Hodges and R. Bruce Singletary were named to board of directors of the Company (the “Company Board”). Ms. Martha M. Bachman and Dr. Samuel E. Lynch, existing members of the Company Board, remained as such following the closing of the Investment. All other members of the Company Board resigned effective September 7, 2011.

Because of the controlling proportion of voting securities in the Company acquired by CBF, the CBF Investment is considered an acquisition for accounting purposes and the push down method of the acquisition method of accounting was applied. The accounting guidance for acquisition accounting requires that the assets acquired and liabilities assumed be recorded at their respective fair values as of the acquisition date. Any purchase price in excess of the net assets acquired is recorded as goodwill.

The most significant fair value adjustments resulting from the application of the acquisition method of accounting were made to loans. Accounting guidance requires that all loans held by the Company on the Transaction Date be recorded at their fair value. The fair value of these acquired loans takes into account both the differences in loan interest rates and market rates and any deterioration in their credit quality. Because concerns about the probability of receiving the full amount of the contractual payments from the borrowers was considered in estimating the fair value of the loans, stating the loans at their fair value results in no allowance for loan loss being provided for these loans as of the Transaction Date. As of September 7, 2011, certain loans had evidence of credit deterioration since origination, and it was probable that not all contractually required principal and interest payments would be collected. Such loans identified at the time of the acquisition were accounted for using the measurement provision for purchased credit-impaired (“PCI”) loans, according to the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 310-30. The special accounting for PCI loans not only requires that they are recorded at fair value at the date of acquisition and that any related allowance for loan and lease losses is not permitted to be carried forward past the Transaction Date, but it also governs how interest income will be recognized on these loans and how any further deterioration in credit quality after the Transaction Date will be recognized and reported.

As a result of the adjustments required by the acquisition method of accounting, the Company’s balance sheet and results of operations from periods prior to the Transaction Date are labeled as Predecessor Company amounts and are not comparable to balances and results of operations from periods subsequent to the Transaction Date, which are labeled as Successor Company. The lack of comparability arises from the assets and liabilities having new accounting bases as a result of recording them at their fair values as of the Transaction Date rather than at their historical cost basis. As a result of the change in accounting bases, items of income and expense such as the rate of interest income and expense as well as depreciation and rental expense will change. In general, these changes in income and expense relate to the amortization of premiums or accretion of discounts to arrive at contractual amounts due. To call attention to this lack of comparability, the Company has placed a black line between the Successor Company and Predecessor Company columns in the Consolidated Financial Statements and in the tables in the notes to the statements and in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

Green Bank Merger with Capital Bank, NA

On September 7, 2011, GreenBank, which was formerly a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, merged with and into Capital Bank, NA, a national banking association and subsidiary of TIB Financial Corp. (the “TIB Financial”), a corporation organized under the laws of the State of Florida, Capital Bank Corporation, a corporation organized under the laws of the state of North Carolina (“Capital Bank Corp.”) and CBF, with Capital Bank, NA as the surviving entity. CBF is the owner of approximately 90% of the Company’s common stock, approximately 83% of Capital Bank Corp’s common stock and approximately 94% of TIB Financial’s common stock. TIB Bank, the former wholly-owned banking subsidiary of TIB Financial, merged with and into Capital Bank, NA (formerly known as NAFH National Bank) on April 29, 2011. Capital Bank, the former wholly-owned banking subsidiary of Capital Bank Corp. merged with and into Capital Bank, NA (formerly known as NAFH National Bank) on June 30, 2011.

At March 31, 2012, the Company’s net investment of $318.5 million in Capital Bank, NA, was recorded in the Consolidated Balance Sheet as “Equity method investment in Capital Bank, NA” which represented the Company’s pro rata ownership of Capital Bank, NA’s total shareholders’ equity. In periods subsequent to the Merger Date, the Company has and 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 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 March 31, 2012, no investments, loans or deposits are reported on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet and subsequent to the Merger Date, interest expense is the result of the outstanding trust preferred securities issued by the Company.

Capital Bank, NA was formed in connection with the July 16, 2010 purchase and assumption of assets and deposits and other liabilities of three banks – Metro Bank of Dade County (Miami, Florida), Turnberry Bank (Aventura, Florida) and First National Bank of the South (Spartanburg, South Carolina) – from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the “FDIC”) and is a party to loss sharing agreements with the FDIC covering the large majority of the loans it acquired from the FDIC. As of March 31, 2012, following the mergers of TIB Bank, Capital Bank and GreenBank, as discussed above, Capital Bank, NA had total assets of $6.5 billion, total deposits of $5.3 billion and shareholders’ equity of $949.3 million. As of March 31, 2012, following the mergers of TIB Bank, Capital Bank and GreenBank as discussed above, Capital Bank, NA operated 143 branches in Florida, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee and Virginia.

Potential Merger of Green Bankshares, Inc. and CBF, Corp.

On September 8, 2011, CBF’s Board of Directors approved and adopted a plan of merger which provides for the merger of Green Bankshares, Inc. with and into CBF, with CBF continuing as the surviving entity (the “merger”). In the merger, each share of Green Bankshares, Inc. common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the completion of the merger, except for certain shares held by CBF or Green Bankshares, Inc., will be converted into the right to receive .0915 of a share of CBF Class A common stock. No fractional share of Class A common stock will be issued in connection with the merger, and holders of Green Bankshares, Inc. common stock will be entitled to receive cash in lieu thereof. Since CBF currently owns more than 90% of the common stock of Green Bankshares, Inc., under Delaware and Tennessee law, no vote of our stockholders is required to complete the merger. CBF will determine when and if the merger will ultimately take place.

Consent Order

During the third quarter of 2011, the FDIC and the Tennessee Department of Financial Institutions (“TDFI”) issued a consent order against the Bank aimed at strengthening the Bank’s operations and its financial condition. The order’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. The Consent Order terminated on September 7, 2011 when GreenBank was merged with and into Capital Bank, NA.

Quarterly Summary

For the first quarter of 2012, the Company reported net income of $3.3 million. Basic and diluted income per common share was $0.02. Net income during the quarter reflects equity income from the Company’s investment in Capital Bank, NA of $4.0 million, net of tax and interest expense of $842,000 related to trust preferred securities. Excluding the equity income of $4.0 million, the Company reported a net loss before tax in the first quarter of $1.0 million which resulted in a tax benefit of $0.3 million being recorded.

Operating and financial highlights include the following:

•

On September 7, 2011, GreenBank, which was the wholly-owned banking subsidiary of Green Bankshares, Inc., merged with and into Capital Bank, NA;

•

As a result of the Bank Merger, the Company held a 34% ownership interest in Capital Bank, NA at March 31, 2012

•

As previously announced, CBF agreed to acquire 100% of Southern Community Financial Corp., which it expects to close, pending shareholder and regulatory approvals, during the second quarter of 2012. Upon closing, Southern Community’s regulated subsidiary, Southern Community Bank and Trust, will be merged into Capital Bank, NA.

Green Bankshares, Inc. reported total assets of $323.9 million as of March 31, 2012.

The following table presents summarized financial information for the Company’s equity method investee; Capital Bank, NA:

Results of Operations

Net income

Three months ended March 31, 2012:

The Company reported net income of $3.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2012. Basic and diluted income per common share was $0.02. The Company’s consolidated net income includes three months of equity in income from its investment in Capital Bank, NA which amounted to $4.0 million, net of tax. Net income also included interest expense of $842,000 for the first quarter related to trust preferred securities. Excluding the equity income of $4.0 million, the Company reported a net loss before tax in the first quarter of $1.0 million which resulted in a tax benefit of $0.3 million being recorded.

Three months ended March 31, 2011:

The Company reported a net loss of $10.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2011. Basic and diluted net loss per common share was $(0.88). The provision for loan losses recorded during the quarter was $13.9 million as credit costs remained elevated.

Net Interest Income

Three months ended March 31, 2012:

Following the September 7, 2011 Bank Merger, as a result of the deconsolidation of the Bank, the Successor Company has no interest earning assets and its primary asset is the investment in Capital Bank, NA for which income is recorded in non-interest income. Net Interest loss in the first quarter of 2012 was $(842,000) representing interest expense on trust preferred securities, with an average balance of $45.3 million and cost of 7.48% for the quarter.

Three months ended March 31, 2011:

The largest source of earnings for the Predecessor Company was net interest income, which is the difference between interest income on earning assets and interest expense on deposits and other interest-bearing liabilities. Net interest income was affected by the interest rate environment and the volume and the composition of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. Interest-earning assets included loans, federal funds sold and securities purchased under agreements to resell, interest-bearing deposits in other banks and investment securities. Interest-bearing liabilities included deposits, federal funds purchased, subordinated debentures, advances from the FHLB and other short term borrowings.

First quarter 2011 net interest income totaled $19,267,000. The net interest margin was 3.77% in the first quarter of 2011, reflecting an average yield of 5.20% on earning assets versus an average cost of 1.42% on interest-bearing liabilities. Loans, accounting for 75% of earning assets, had a yield of 6.37% while securities and short-term investments produced yields of 3.57% and 0.25%, respectively. Interest checking, savings and money market deposits represented 59% of interest-bearing deposits, and had an average yield of 0.68% while time deposits, represented 41% of interest-bearing deposits, with an average yield of 1.87%.

The following table, for which dollars are in thousands, presents average balances of the Predecessor Company, the taxable-equivalent interest earned, and the rate paid thereon during the three months ended March 31, 2011. A comparable analysis is not presented for the three months ended March 31, 2012 given that the Successor Company has no interest earning assets.

Three months ended March 31, 2012:

Non-interest expense for the three months ended March 31, 2012 totaled $194,000, representing audit fees of $118,000 and $73,000 of management fee expense for services provided to the Company by employees of Capital Bank, NA.

Three months ended March 31, 2011:

During the three months ended March 31, 2011, the largest components of non-interest expense were $9.1 million of salary and benefits, $3.8 million of credit-related costs (including operating costs and losses on disposition of foreclosed or repossessed assets, and collection costs), $2.7 million of net occupancy costs and $1.1 million of FDIC and state assessments.

Provision for income taxes

The provision for income taxes includes federal and state income taxes. Fluctuations in effective tax rates reflect the effect of the differences in the inclusion or deductibility of certain income and expenses, respectively, for income tax purposes. The effective income tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2012 was approximately (10%). Due to the equity method of accounting for the Company’s investment in Capital Bank, NA, the effective tax rate reflected in the current period was lower than the statutory tax rate. As the equity in income from investment in Capital Bank, NA is net of income tax expense, such earnings are treated as a permanent difference and are not included in taxable income. Excluding the impact of the equity method earnings from Capital Bank, NA, the effective income tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2012 would have been approximately 37%.

The effective income tax rate for the three months ended March 31, 2011, was (2.8%), which was significantly impacted by the valuation allowance for the net deferred tax assets. A valuation allowance related to deferred tax assets is required when it is considered more likely than not (greater than 50% likelihood) that all or part of the benefit related to such assets 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 most significant negative verifiable evidence for the quarter ended March 31, 2011 was the three year cumulative loss calculation, net of the non-cash goodwill impairment charge of ($143.4) million recognized in the second quarter of 2009. The predecessor company’s estimate of the realization of its net deferred tax assets was based on the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities and taxable income available in prior carry back years, pre-tax core operating projections, tax planning strategies, and the longevity of the company. Based on management’s calculation, an allowance of 47,563, or 88.2% of the net deferred tax assets, was an adequate estimate of the portion of the net deferred tax assets which was more likely than not to not be realized as of March 31, 2011.

Our future effective income tax rate will fluctuate based on the amount of the equity in income from our investment in Capital Bank, NA and our overall level of taxable income. Additionally, there were no unrecognized tax benefits at March 31, 2012, and we do not expect the total of unrecognized tax benefits to significantly increase in the next twelve months.

Balance Sheet

Total assets at March 31, 2012 were $323.9 million. As discussed above, due to the Bank Merger, the Company began to account for its ownership in Capital Bank, NA under the equity method of accounting and the assets and liabilities of the Bank were de-consolidated from the Company’s balance sheet. The deconsolidation resulted in a significant decrease in the total assets and total liabilities of the Company in the third quarter of 2011. Accordingly, as of March 31, 2012, no investments, loans or deposits are reported on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheet.

At March 31, 2012, the Company’s trust preferred securities had a carrying value of $45.5 million, and a notional value of $86 million which was comparable to the balance at December 31, 2011.

Shareholders’ equity totaled $262.5 million at March 31, 2012, increasing $2.5 million from December 31, 2011.

Capital and Liquidity

Capital

As of March 31, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the Company’s ratios of total capital to risk-weighted assets were 100.3% and 99.8%, respectively, and the leverage ratios were 100.4% and 100.7%, respectively, which exceeded the levels required to be considered well capitalized. Due to the Bank Merger discussed above, the deconsolidation of the Bank and the equity method of accounting for the Company’s investment in Capital Bank, NA, the regulatory capital ratios for the Company are not meaningful. Subsequent to the Bank Merger, the primary source of support for Capital Bank, NA is the Company’s majority shareholder, CBF.

On September 7, 2011, the Company completed the issuance and sale to CBF of 119.9 million shares of common stock for aggregate consideration of $217 million. The consideration consisted of approximately $148.3 million in cash and approximately $68.7 million in the form of a contribution to the Company of all 72,278 outstanding shares of Series A Preferred Stock previously issued to the U.S. Treasury Department (“Treasury”) under the TARP Capital Purchase Program and the related warrant to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock, which CBF purchased directly from the Treasury. The Series A Preferred Stock and the related warrant were retired on September 7, 2011 and are no longer outstanding.

Liquidity

Liquidity represents the ability to provide sufficient funds to cover operating obligations. Required redemptions of the Company’s trust preferred securities do not commence until 2031. Funds for such redemptions can be obtained by capital contributions from the Company’s holding company CBF.

During September 2011, the Company paid interest payments on all of its series of junior subordinated debentures having an outstanding principal amount of $86 million, relating to outstanding trust preferred securities (“TRUPs”), for which payments had been deferred beginning in the fourth quarter of 2010.

As of March 31, 2012, the Company had cash of approximately $2.6 million. This cash is available for providing additional capital support to Capital Bank, NA and for other general corporate purposes.

Currently, the OCC Operating Agreement with Capital Bank prohibits the Bank from paying a dividend for three years following the July 16, 2010 initial acquisition date. Once the three-year period has elapsed, the agreement imposes other restrictions on Capital Bank’s ability to pay dividends including requiring prior approval from the OCC before any distribution is made. Therefore, the Company does not expect to receive dividends from the Bank in the foreseeable future.

Dividends that may be paid by a national bank without express approval of the OCC are limited to that bank’s retained net profits for the preceding two years plus retained net profits up to the date of any dividend declaration in the current calendar year. Based on the retained net profits of the Bank, declaration of dividends by the Bank to the Company during 2011, if not subject to other restrictions, would have been limited to approximately $17.6 million.

Asset and Liability Management

Closely related to liquidity management is the management of the relative interest rate sensitivity of interest-earning assets and interest-bearing liabilities. See “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” below. Increases in LIBOR, the index to which the interest rate on our trust preferred securities are tied could increase, which could have a material adverse impact on the financial condition and operating results of the Company.

Item 3.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Market 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 March 31, 2012, 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 Company’s total assets at March 31, 2012, we anticipate that net interest income will become a less significant measure of the operating results of the Company 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.
