Explanatory Note

In its Current Report on Form 8-K filed on April 16, 2012, Independent Bank Corp. filed its 1^st Quarter 2012 Analyst Call Transcript as Exhibit 99.1 to Item 8.01 “Other Events” and Item 9.01 “Financial Statements and Exhibits.” In the questions and answers section of exhibit 99.1 the following answer by Mr. Denis Sheahan was misinterpreted in the transcription:

Well we weren’t surprised by the increase, Mark. I mean, it was certainly a good quarter, but as you know, we’ve been steadily growing capital. We’re very, very comfortable with our capital level. Our current projections have us being close to $720 million by the end of the year on an unadjusted basis. And then when you adjust for the goodwill that’s deductible for tax purposes, we’ll be closer to $750 million by the end of the year. So we’re feeling really good about our capital position.

The answer should have been transcribed as:

Well we weren’t surprised by the increase, Mark. I mean, it was certainly a good quarter, but as you know, we’ve been steadily growing capital. We’re very, very comfortable with our capital level. Our current projections have us being close to 7.20% by the end of the year on an unadjusted basis. And then when you adjust for the goodwill that’s deductible for tax purposes, we’ll be closer to 7.50% by the end of the year. So we’re feeling really good about our capital position.

This is amending exhibit 99.1 under Item 8.01 “Other Events” and Item 9.01 “Financial Statements and Exhibits” on Independent Bank Corp.’s 8-K filed on April 16, 2012.
