EXPLANATORY NOTE

On March 21, 2014, T Bancshares, Inc. (the “Company”) filed a Current Report on Form 8-K (the “March 8-K”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) to report that, on February 26, 2014, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of the Company approved the decision to change accounting firms and empowered the Audit Committee Chairman to dismiss BKD, LLP (“BKD”) as its independent registered public accounting firm effective upon completion of BKD’s agreed upon services for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2013.  This Amendment No. 1 to Current Report on Form 8-K amends the March 8-K to update the disclosures provided in the March 8-K through the completion of services by BKD and to provide the disclosure required under Item 4.01(b) for the Company’s new accounting firm.

Item 4.01                      Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant

(a)           In connection with the audits of the two fiscal years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the subsequent interim period preceding BKD’s termination, there were no disagreements with BKD on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope of procedure, which disagreement, if not resolved to the satisfaction of BKD would have caused BKD to make reference to the subject matter of disagreements in connection with its reports. BKD's audit report on the consolidated financial statements of the Company as of and for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012 contained no adverse opinion or disclaimer of opinion and was not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles.  A copy of the disclosures contained in this Amendment No. 1 to Current Report on Form 8-K was provided to BKD in accordance with Item 304(a)(3) of Regulation S-K. In addition, the Company requested that BKD furnish the Company with a letter addressed to the SEC stating whether or not BKD agrees with the above statements.  A copy of BKD’s letter to the Commission, dated April 14, 2014, is attached as an exhibit to this report.

(b)           On April 14, 2014, the Company engaged JonesBaggett LLP (“JonesBaggett”) as its registered independent accounting firm, formally replacing BKD.  The Company will request shareholder ratification of the appointment of JonesBaggett as its independent registered public accounting firm at its 2014 annual meeting of shareholders.

During the two most recent fiscal years, and the subsequent interim period prior to engaging JonesBaggett, neither the Company, nor anyone on its behalf, consulted JonesBaggett regarding (i) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, (ii) the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company's financial statements, or (iii) any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement (as defined in paragraph 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and the related instructions) or a reportable event (as described in paragraph 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).

None of the reportable events described under Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K occurred within the Company's two most recent fiscal years and the subsequent interim period through April 14, 2014.
