EXPLANATORY NOTE

On September 13, 2011, Capital Bank Corporation (the “Company”), filed a Current Report on Form 8-K to report that Capital Bank (“Capital Bank”), a subsidiary of the Company, TIB Financial Corp. (“TIB Financial”) and North American Financial Holdings, Inc. , had entered into an Agreement of Merger with GreenBank on September 7, 2011 pursuant to which, on September 7, 2011, GreenBank merged with and into Capital Bank, with Capital Bank continuing as the surviving entity (the “Merger”). In that filing, the Company indicated that it would file an amendment to the Form 8-K no later than November 23, 2011 to provide financial information to the extent required by Item 9.01 of Form 8-K. This Current Report on Form 8-K/A is being filed to provide financial information to the extent required by Item 9.01.

Prior to the Merger, Capital Bank (formerly known as NAFH National Bank) acquired assets and assumed liabilities of First National Bank of the South, Metro Bank of Dade County and Turnberry Bank (collectively, the “Failed Banks”) from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (the “FDIC”, and, such transactions, the “Failed Banks Acquisitions”). In accordance with the guidance provided in Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 1:K, “Financial Statements of Acquired Troubled Financial Institutions” (“SAB 1:K”), the Company has omitted certain financial information of the Failed Banks required by Rule 3-05 of Regulation S-X and the related pro forma financial information required under Article 11 of Regulation S-X. SAB 1:K provides relief from the requirements of Rule 3-05 of Regulation S-X and the related pro forma financial information required under Article 11 of Regulation S-X under certain circumstances, including transactions such as the Failed Banks Acquisitions, in which the registrant engages in an acquisition of a troubled financial institution for which historical financial statements are not reasonably available and in which federal assistance is an essential and significant part of the transaction.

Statements made or incorporated by reference into this Amendment, other than those concerning historical financial information, may be considered forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and are subject to risks and uncertainties. These forward-looking statements include, without limitation, statements regarding the Company’s expectations concerning its financial condition, operating results, cash flows, liquidity and capital resources. A discussion of risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from management’s expectations is set forth under the captions “Cautionary Notice Regarding Forward Looking Statements,” “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010 as well as under the similar captions in the Registration Statement on Form S-1 filed by North American Financial Holdings, Inc. on June 23, 2011, as amended since that date (File No. 333-175108).
