Item 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.

On June 3, 2013, Solera National Bancorp, Inc. (the “Registrant”) increased its authorized capitalization from five million shares of common stock, $0.01 par value (“Common Stock”), to ten million shares of Common Stock (the “Amendment”) pursuant to a certificate of amendment to the certificate of incorporation of the Registrant. The Amendment was approved by the Registrant's shareholders at the annual meeting of shareholders of the Registrant held on May 22, 2013. The Amendment was filed with the Secretary of State of Delaware on June 3, 2013, and was effective upon filing. 


The Amendment also provides that the Registrant may issue shares of its Common Stock from time to time for such consideration (not less than the par value thereof) as may be fixed by its board of directors, which is expressly authorized to fix the same in its absolute and uncontrolled discretion. Shares so issued for which the consideration shall have been paid or delivered to the Registrant shall be deemed fully paid stock and shall not be liable to any further call or assessment thereon, and the holder of such shares shall not be liable for any further payments in respect of such shares. A copy of the Amendment is attached to this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 3.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
