Explanatory Note
     On April 21, 2011, Hudson City Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) filed a Current Report on Form 8-K to report on the voting results of its annual meeting of shareholders held on April 19, 2011 (the “Annual Meeting”), including, among other matters, the results of the non-binding advisory vote regarding the frequency of future shareholder advisory votes on the compensation paid to the Company’s named executive officers.
     The Company is filing this Amendment No. 1 on Form8-K/A solely to update, in accordance with Item 5.07(d) of Form 8-K, the disclosures made regarding the vote on the frequency of future shareholder advisory votes on named executive officer compensation.
Item 5.07 Submission of Matters to a Vote of Security Holders.
     At the Annual Meeting, the Company’s shareholders voted, in a non-binding advisory vote, for an advisory vote on named executive officer compensation to be held every year, rather than every two or every three years, consistent with the recommendation of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”). In light of such vote and consistent with the Board’s prior recommendation, the Company intends to hold a shareholder advisory vote on named executive officer compensation every year, until such time as another advisory vote is held, in accordance with Section 14A(a)(2) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, on the frequency of advisory votes on named executive officer compensation.
