Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

As of and for the Six Months and Quarter Ended December 31, 2009 and 2008

(1) Basis of Presentation

The accompanying consolidated statement of financial condition as of June 30, 2009 was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements of Greene County Bancorp, Inc. (the “Company”) and its wholly owned subsidiary, The Bank of Greene County (the “Bank”) and the Bank’s wholly owned subsidiary, Greene County Commercial Bank. The consolidated financial statements at and for the six and three months ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 are unaudited.

The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. To the extent that information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements are contained in or are consistent with the audited financial statements incorporated by reference to Greene County Bancorp, Inc.’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2009, such information and footnotes have not been duplicated herein. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring items) necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position and results of operations and cash flows at and for the periods presented have been included. Amounts in the prior year’s consolidated financial statements have been reclassified whenever necessary to conform to the current year’s presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on net income or retained earnings as previously reported. All material inter-company accounts and transactions have been eliminated in the consolidation. The results of operations and other data for the six and three months ended December 31, 2009 are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the entire fiscal year ending June 30, 2010. These consolidated financial statements consider events that occurred through February 12, 2010, the date the consolidated financial statements were issued.

REFERENCING GAAP

Beginning with periods ending after September 15, 2009, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) has implemented the FASB Accounting Standards Codification™ (“Codification” or “ASC”) as the single source of authoritative GAAP recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities. Rules and interpretive releases of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) under authority of federal securities laws are also sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. The Codification supersedes all existing non-SEC accounting and reporting standards. All other non-grandfathered, non-SEC accounting literature not included in the Codification will become non-authoritative.

Following the Codification, the FASB will not issue new standards in the form of Statements, FASB Staff Positions or Emerging Issues Task Force Abstracts. Instead, it will issue Accounting Standards Updates, which will serve to update the Codification, provide background information about the guidance and provide the basis for conclusions on the changes to the Codification.

GAAP is not intended to be changed as a result of the FASB's Codification project, but it will change the way the guidance is organized and presented. As a result, these changes will have a significant impact on how companies reference GAAP in their financial statements and in their accounting policies for financial statements issued for interim and annual periods ending after September 15, 2009. The Company has updated references to GAAP in its consolidated financial statements issued beginning with the period ended September 30, 2009.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Greene County Bancorp, Inc.’s critical accounting policies relates to the allowance for loan losses and the evaluation of securities for other-than-temporary impairment.

The allowance for loan losses is based on management’s estimation of an amount that is intended to absorb losses in the existing portfolio. The allowance for loan losses is established through a provision for losses based on management’s evaluation of the risk inherent in the loan portfolio, the composition of the portfolio, specific impaired loans and current economic conditions. Such evaluation, which includes a review of all loans for which full collectibility may not be reasonably assured, considers among other matters, the estimated net realizable value or the fair value of the underlying collateral, economic conditions, historical loan loss experience, management’s estimate of probable credit losses and other factors that warrant recognition in providing for the allowance of loan losses. However, this evaluation involves a high degree of complexity and requires management to make subjective judgments that often require assumptions or estimates about highly uncertain matters. This critical accounting policy and its application are periodically reviewed with the Audit Committee and the Board of Directors.

Securities are evaluated for other-than-temporary impairment by performing periodic reviews of individual securities in the investment portfolio. Greene County Bancorp, Inc. makes an assessment to determine whether there have been any events or economic circumstances to indicate that a security on which there is an unrealized loss is impaired on an other-than-temporary basis. The Company considers many factors, including the severity and duration of the impairment; the intent and ability of the Company to hold the equity security for a period of time sufficient for a recovery in value; recent events specific to the issuer or industry; and for debt securities, intent to sell the security, the likelihood to be required to sell the security before it recovers the entire amortized cost, external credit ratings and recent downgrades. The Company is required to record other-than-temporary impairment charges through earnings, if it has the intent to sell, or will more likely than not be required to sell an impaired debt security before a recovery of its amortized cost basis. In addition, the Company is required to record other-than-temporary impairment charges through earnings for the amount of credit losses, regardless of the intent or requirement to sell. Credit loss is measured as the difference between the present value of an impaired debt security’s cash flows and its amortized cost basis. Non-credit related write-downs to fair value must be recorded as decreases to accumulated other comprehensive income as long as the Company has no intent or requirement to sell an impaired security before a recovery of amortized cost basis.

(2) Nature of Operations

Greene County Bancorp, Inc.’s primary business is the ownership and operation of its subsidiaries. The Bank of Greene County has eleven full-service offices and an operations center located in its market area consisting of Greene County, Columbia County and southern Albany County, New York. The Bank of Greene County is primarily engaged in the business of attracting deposits from the general public in The Bank of Greene County’s market area, and investing such deposits, together with other sources of funds, in loans and investment securities. Greene County Commercial Bank’s primary business is to attract deposits from and provide banking services to local municipalities.

(3) Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Material estimates that are particularly susceptible to significant change in the near term relate to the determination of the allowance for loan losses and the assessment of other-than-temporary security impairment.

While management uses available information to recognize losses on loans, future additions to the allowance for loan losses (the “Allowance”) may be necessary, based on changes in economic conditions, asset quality or other factors. In addition, various regulatory authorities, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review our Allowance. Such authorities may require us to recognize additions to the Allowance based on their judgments of information available to them at the time of their examination.

Greene County Bancorp, Inc. makes an assessment to determine whether there have been any events or economic circumstances to indicate that a security on which there is an unrealized loss is impaired on an other-than-temporary basis. The Company considers numerous factors when determining whether a potential other-than-temporary impairment (“OTTI”) exists and the period over which the debt security is expected to recover. The principal factors considered are (1) the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than the amortized cost basis, (2) the financial condition of the issuer (and guarantor, if any) and adverse conditions specifically related to the security, industry or geographic area, (3) failure of the issuer of the security to make scheduled interest or principal payments, (4) any changes to the rating of the security by a rating agency, and (5) the presence of credit enhancements, if any, including the guarantee of the federal government or any of its agencies. Securities on which there is an unrealized loss that is deemed to be other-than-temporary are written down to fair value.

At December 31, 2009, there were 2 securities which had been in a continuous unrealized loss position for less than 12 months and 6 securities with a continuous unrealized loss position of more than 12 months. At December 31, 2009, the Company had $6.9 million in corporate debt securities of which $2.2 million had an unrealized loss of $82,000 for more than 12 months. When the fair value of a held to maturity or available for sale security is less than its amortized cost basis, an assessment is made as to whether OTTI is present. The Company considers numerous factors when determining whether a potential OTTI exists and the period over which the debt security is expected to recover. The principal factors considered are (1) the length of time and the extent to which the fair value has been less than the amortized cost basis, (2) the financial condition of the issuer (and guarantor, if any) and adverse conditions specifically related to the security, industry or geographic area, (3) failure of the issuer of the security to make scheduled interest or principal payments, (4) any changes to the rating of the security by a rating agency, and (5) the presence of credit enhancements, if any, including the guarantee of the federal government or any of its agencies.

For debt securities, OTTI is considered to have occurred if (1) the Company intends to sell the security, (2) it is more likely than not the Company will be required to sell the security before recovery of its amortized cost basis, or (3) if the present value of expected cash flows is not sufficient to recover the entire amortized cost basis. In determining the present value of expected cash flows, the Company discounts the expected cash flows at the effective interest rate implicit in the security at the date of acquisition. In estimating cash flows expected to be collected, the Company uses available information with respect to security prepayments, default rates and severity. In determining whether OTTI has occurred for equity securities, the Company considers the applicable factors described above and the intent and ability of the Company to retain its investment in the issuer for a period of time sufficient to allow for any anticipated recovery in fair value.

For debt securities, credit-related OTTI is recognized in income while noncredit related OTTI on securities not expected to be sold is recognized in other comprehensive income (“OCI”). Credit-related OTTI is measured as the difference between the present value of an impaired security’s expected cash flows and its amortized cost basis. Noncredit-related OTTI is measured as the difference between the fair value of the security and its amortized cost less any credit-related losses recognized. For securities classified as held to maturity, the amount of OTTI recognized in OCI is accreted to the credit-adjusted expected cash flow amounts of the securities over future periods. For equity securities, the entire amount of OTTI is recognized in income. Management evaluated securities considering the factors as outlined above, and based on this evaluation the Company does not consider these investments to be other-than-temporarily impaired at December 31, 2009. Management believes that the reasons for the decline in fair value are due to interest rates, widening credit spreads and market illiquidity at the end of the quarter.

Gross realized gains and losses on sales of securities or other-than-temporary impairment of securities recognized in income during the six months ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 are as follows:

	Six months ended December 31,
(in thousands)	2009			2008
Gross realized gains	$	32		$	12
Gross realized losses		(37	)		(24	)
Other-than-temporary impairment losses		---			(221	)
Net losses recognized	$	(5	)	$	(233	)

During the quarter ended December 31, 2009, the Company sold $1.8 million of corporate debt securities which resulted in the recognition of a net loss of $5,000. During the quarter ended December 31, 2008, the Company sold $4.6 million of mortgage-backed securities which resulted in the recognition of a net loss of $12,000. Also during the quarter ended September 30, 2008, a loss of $221,000 ($135,000 net of tax) related to the other-than-temporary impairment of a Lehman Brothers Holdings, Inc. debt security held by the Company was recognized. The loss on this debt security was determined by obtaining a market quote as of the date of impairment. The decline in the value of this security was solely due to credit losses, and therefore the entire loss was recognized in income. There was no other-than-temporary impairment loss recognized during the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2009.

During the quarter ended December 31, 2008, $23.8 million of securities available-for-sale were transferred to held-to-maturity and included primarily mortgage-backed securities. These securities were transferred at fair value which reflected a net unrealized loss of $338,000. This unrealized loss is being accreted to other comprehensive income over the remaining average lives of these securities.

The estimated fair value of debt securities at December 31, 2009, by contractual maturity are shown below. Expected maturities may differ from contractual maturities, because issuers may have the right to call or prepay obligations with or without call or prepayment penalties.

As of December 31, 2009 and June 30, 2009, securities with an aggregate fair value of $103.3 million and $106.9 million, respectively, were pledged as collateral for deposits in excess of FDIC insurance limits for various municipalities placing deposits with Greene County Commercial Bank. Greene County Bancorp, Inc. did not participate in any securities lending programs during the quarters ended December 31, 2009 or 2008.

Federal Home Loan Bank Stock

Federal law requires a member institution of the Federal Home Loan Bank (“FHLB”) system to hold stock of its district FHLB according to a predetermined formula. This stock is restricted in that it can only be sold to the FHLB or to another member institution, and all sales of FHLB stock must be at par. As a result of these restrictions, FHLB stock is carried at cost. FHLB stock is held as a long-term investment and its value is determined based on the ultimate recoverability of the par value. Impairment of this investment is evaluated quarterly and is a matter of judgment that reflects management’s view of the FHLB’s long-term performance, which includes factors such as the following: its operating performance; the severity and duration of declines in the fair value of its net assets related to its capital stock amount; its commitment to make payments required by law or regulation and the level of such payments in relation to its operating performance; the impact of legislative and regulatory changes on the FHLB, and accordingly, on the members of the FHLB; and its liquidity and funding position. After evaluating these considerations, Greene County Bancorp, Inc. concluded that the par value of its investment in FHLB stock will be recovered and, therefore, no other-than-temporary impairment charge was recorded during the six months ended December 31, 2009 and 2008.

(5) Fair Value Measurements and Fair Value of Financial Instruments

Management uses its best judgment in estimating the fair value of the Company’s financial instruments; however, there are inherent weaknesses in any estimation technique. Therefore, for substantially all financial instruments, the fair value estimates herein are not necessarily indicative of the amounts the Company could have realized in a sale transaction on the dates indicated. The estimated fair value amounts have been measured as of December 31, 2009 and June 30, 2009 and have not been re-evaluated or updated for purposes of these consolidated financial statements subsequent to those respective dates. As such, the estimated fair values of these financial instruments subsequent to the respective reporting dates may be different than the amounts reported at each period-end.

The following information should not be interpreted as an estimate of the fair value of the entire Company since a fair value calculation is only provided for a limited portion of the Company’s assets and liabilities. Due to a wide range of valuation techniques and the degree of subjectivity used in making the estimates, comparisons between the Company’s disclosures and those of other companies may not be meaningful.

The FASB ASC Topic on “ Fair Value Measurement” established a fair value hierarchy that prioritized the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (level 3 measurements). The three levels of the fair value hierarchy are as follows:

Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets that are accessible at the measurement date for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities.

Level 2: Quoted prices in markets that are not active, or inputs that are observable either directly or indirectly, for substantially the full term of the asset or liability.

Level 3: Prices or valuation techniques that require inputs that are both significant to the fair value measurement and unobservable (i.e., supported with little or no market activity).

An asset or liability’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

For assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis, the fair value measurements by level within the fair value hierarchy used are as follows:

		Fair Value Measurements Using
		Quoted Prices	Significant	Significant
		In Active Markets	Other Observable	Unobservable
		For Identical Assets	Inputs	Inputs
(In thousands)	December 31, 2009	(Level 1)	(Level 2)	(Level 3)
Assets:
Securities available-for-sale	$90,438	$50,598	$39,840	$---

		Fair Value Measurements Using
		Quoted Prices	Significant	Significant
		In Active Markets	Other Observable	Unobservable
		For Identical Assets	Inputs	Inputs
(In thousands)	June 30, 2009	(Level 1)	(Level 2)	(Level 3)
Assets:
Securities available-for-sale	$98,271	$56,320	$41,951	$---

Certain investments that are actively traded and have quoted market prices have been classified as Level 1 valuations. Other available-for-sale investment securities have been valued by reference to prices for similar securities or through model-based techniques in which all significant inputs are observable and, therefore, such valuations have been classified as Level 2.

In addition to disclosures of the fair value of assets on a recurring basis, FASB ASC Topic on “ Fair Value Measurement” requires disclosures for assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis, such as impaired assets, in the period in which a re-measurement at fair value is performed. Loans are generally not recorded at fair value on a recurring basis. Periodically, the Company records nonrecurring adjustments to the carrying value of loans based on fair value measurements for partial charge-offs of the uncollectible portions of those loans. Nonrecurring adjustments also include certain impairment amounts for collateral-dependent loans calculated as required by the “ Receivables –Loan Impairment” subtopic of the FASB ASC when establishing the allowance for credit losses. Impaired loans are those loans for which the Company has re-measured impairment generally based on the fair value of the underlying collateral supporting the loan and, as a result, the carrying value of the loan less the calculated valuation amount does not necessarily represent the fair value of the loan. Real estate collateral is typically valued using independent appraisals or other indications of value based on recent comparable sales of similar properties or assumptions generally observable in the marketplace and the related nonrecurring fair value measurement adjustments have generally been classified as Level 3. Estimates of fair value used for other collateral supporting commercial loans generally are based on assumptions not observable in the marketplace and therefore such valuations have been classified as Level 3. At December 31, 2009, loans subject to nonrecurring fair value measurement had a gross carrying amount of $98,000 and a fair value of $88,000 with an associated valuation allowance of $10,000, which was unchanged from June 30, 2009. These loans were classified as a Level 3 valuation. No other financial assets or liabilities (such as Foreclosed Real Estate) were re-measured during the quarter on a nonrecurring basis.

The carrying amounts reported in the consolidated statements of financial condition for cash and cash equivalents, long term certificate of deposits, accrued interest receivable and accrued interest payable approximate their fair values. Fair values of securities are based on quoted market prices (Level 1), where available, or matrix pricing (Level 2), which is a mathematical technique, used widely in the industry to value debt securities without relying exclusively on quoted market prices for the specific securities but rather by relying on the securities’ relationship to other benchmark quoted prices. The carrying amount of Federal Home Loan Bank stock approximates fair value. Fair values for variable rate loans that reprice frequently, with no significant credit risk, are based on carrying value. Fair value for fixed rate loans are estimated using discounted cash flows and interest rates currently being offered for loans with similar terms to borrowers of similar credit quality. Fair values disclosed for demand and savings deposits are equal to carrying amounts at the reporting date. The carrying amounts for variable rate money market deposits approximate fair values at the reporting date. Fair values for fixed rate certificates of deposit are estimated using discounted cash flows and interest rates currently being offered in the market on similar certificates. The carrying value of short-term borrowings approximates fair value. Fair value for Federal Home Loan Bank borrowings are estimated using discounted cash flows and interest rates currently being offered on similar advances.

The fair value of commitments to extend credit is estimated based on an analysis of the interest rates and fees currently charged to enter into similar transactions, considering the remaining terms of the commitments and the credit-worthiness of the potential borrowers. At December 31, 2009 and June 30, 2009, the estimated fair values of these off-balance sheet financial instruments were immaterial, and are therefore excluded from the table below.

The carrying amounts and estimated fair value of financial instruments are as follows:

(6) Earnings Per Share (“EPS”)

Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed in a manner similar to that of basic earnings per share except that the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding is increased to include the number of incremental common shares that would have been outstanding under the treasury stock method if all potentially dilutive common shares (such as stock options) issued became vested during the period. The 164,500 options granted during the six months ended December 31, 2008 (see note 11) were anti-dilutive in the six months ended December 31, 2008. There were no anti-dilutive securities or contracts outstanding during the quarter and six months ended December 31, 2009. Unallocated common shares held by the ESOP are not included in the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding for either the basic or diluted earnings per share calculations.

(7) Dividends

On October 20, 2009, the Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.17 per share of Greene County Bancorp, Inc.’s common stock. The dividend reflected an annual cash dividend rate of $0.68 cents per share and was unchanged from the dividend declared during the previous quarter. The dividend was payable to stockholders of record as of November 15, 2009, and was paid on December 1, 2009. It should be noted that Greene County Bancorp, Inc.’s mutual holding company continued to waive receipt of dividends for the current period.

(8) Impact of Inflation and Changing Prices

The consolidated financial statements of Greene County Bancorp, Inc. and notes thereto, presented elsewhere herein, have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America, which require the measurement of financial position and operating results in terms of historical dollars without considering the change in the relative purchasing power of money over time and due to inflation. The impact of inflation is reflected in the increased cost of Greene County Bancorp, Inc.’s operations. Unlike most industrial companies, nearly all the assets and liabilities of Greene County Bancorp, Inc. are monetary. As a result, interest rates have a greater impact on Greene County Bancorp, Inc.’s performance than do the effects of general levels of inflation. Interest rates do not necessarily move in the same direction or to the same extent as the price of goods and services.

(9) Impact of Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In June 2009, the FASB issued its first Accounting Standards Update, “ Generally Accepted Accounting Principles Ó , which establishes the FASB Accounting Standards Codification as the sole source of authoritative generally accepted accounting principles. Pursuant to the provisions of the new Codification, the Company has updated references to GAAP in its consolidated financial statements issued beginning with the period ended September 30, 2009. The adoption of the new Codification did not impact the Company’s consolidated financial position or consolidated results of operations.

In December 2008, the FASB issued an amendment to its guidance on “ Compensation – Retirement Benefits ”. This amendment requires that information about plan assets of a postretirement benefit plan be disclosed, on an annual basis, based on the fair value disclosure requirements of “ Fair Value Measurement ”. The disclosures about plan assets required by this amendment shall be provided for fiscal years ending after December 15, 2009. The Company is currently reviewing the effect this new pronouncement will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In June 2009, the FASB issued an amendment to its guidance on “ Transfers and Servicing”. This guidance prescribes the information that a reporting entity must provide in its financial reports about a transfer of financial assets; the effects of a transfer on its financial position, financial performance and cash flows; and a transferor’s continuing involvement in transferred financial assets. Specifically, among other aspects, the guidance removes the concept of a qualifying special-purpose entity. It also modifies the financial-components approach used in this standard. The new guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2009. We have not determined the effect that the adoption of this guidance will have on our consolidated results of operations or financial position.

In June 2009, the FASB issued an amendment to its guidance on “ Consolidation of Variable Interest Entities” , to require an enterprise to determine whether it’s variable interest or interests give it a controlling financial interest in a variable interest entity. The primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity is the enterprise that has both (1) the power to direct the activities of a variable interest entity that most significantly impact the entity’s economic performance and (2) the obligation to absorb losses of the entity that could potentially be significant to the variable interest entity or the right to receive benefits from the entity that could potentially be significant to the variable interest entity. This amendment also requires ongoing reassessments of whether an enterprise is the primary beneficiary of a variable interest entity. This new guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2009. We have not determined the effect that the adoption of this guidance will have on our consolidated financial position or results of operations.

In November 2008, the SEC released a proposed roadmap regarding the potential use by U.S. issuers of financial statements prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). IFRS is a comprehensive series of accounting standards published by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). Under the proposed roadmap, the Company may be required to prepare financial statements in accordance with IFRS as early as 2014. The SEC will make a determination in 2011 regarding the mandatory adoption of IFRS. The Company is currently assessing the impact that this potential change would have on its consolidated financial statements, and it will continue to monitor the development of the potential implementation of IFRS.

In January, 2010, the FASB issued updated guidance on “ Equity, Accounting for Distributions to Shareholders with Components of Stock and Cash” . The amendments in this update clarify that the stock portion of a distribution to shareholders that allows them to elect to receive cash or stock with a potential limitation on the total amount of cash that all shareholders can elect to receive in the aggregate is considered a share issuance that is reflected in earnings per share prospectively and is not a stock dividend. This update codifies the consensus reached in EITF Issue No. 09-E, Accounting for Stock Dividends, Including Distributions to Shareholders with Components of Stock and Cash. This update is effective for interim and annual periods ending on or after December 15, 2009, and should be applied on a retrospective basis. The Company does not believe that the adoption of this guidance will have a material effect on our consolidated results of operations or financial position.

In January 2010, the FASB issued updated guidance on “ Consolidation, Accounting and Reporting for Decreases in Ownership of a Subsidiary – A Scope Clarification”. This update clarifies that the scope of the decrease in ownership provisions of Subtopic 810-10 and related guidance applies to a subsidiary or group of assets that is a business or nonprofit activity; a subsidiary that is a business or nonprofit activity that is transferred to an equity method investee or joint venture; and an exchange of a group of assets that constitutes a business or nonprofit activity for a noncontrolling interest in an entity (including an equity method investee or joint venture. This update also clarifies that the decrease in ownership guidance in Subtopic 810-10 does not apply to: (a) sales of insubstance real estate; and (b) conveyances of oil and gas mineral rights, even if these transfers involve businesses. The amendments in this update expand the disclosure requirements about deconsolidation of a subsidiary or derecognition of a group of assets to include the valuation techniques used to measure the fair value of any retained investment; the nature of any continuing involvement with the subsidiary or entity acquiring the group of assets; and whether the transaction that resulted in the deconsolidation or derecognition was with a related party or whether the former subsidiary or entity acquiring the assets will become a related party after the transaction. This update is effective beginning in the period that the entity adopts the amendments to guidance on “ Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements – an amendment of ARB 51)”. If an entity has previously adopted this guidance, the amendments are effective beginning in the first interim or annual reporting period ending on or after December 15, 2009. the amendments in this update should be applied retrospectively to the first period that an entity adopts the guidance on “ Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statements” The Company does not believe that the adoption of this guidance will have a material effect on our consolidated results of operations or financial position.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation

Overview of the Company’s Activities and Risks

Greene County Bancorp, Inc.’s consolidated results of operations depend primarily on its net interest income, which is the difference between the income earned on Greene County Bancorp, Inc.’s loan and securities portfolios and its cost of funds, consisting of the interest paid on deposits and borrowings. Consolidated results of operations are also affected by Greene County Bancorp, Inc.’s provision for loan losses, gains and losses from sales of securities, noninterest income and noninterest expense. Noninterest income consists primarily of fees and service charges. Greene County Bancorp, Inc.’s noninterest expense consists principally of compensation and employee benefits, occupancy, equipment and data processing, and other operating expenses. Consolidated results of operations are also significantly affected by general economic and competitive conditions, changes in interest rates, as well as government policies and actions of regulatory authorities. Additionally, future changes in applicable law, regulations or government policies may materially affect Greene County Bancorp, Inc.

To operate successfully, the Company must manage various types of risk, including but not limited to, market or interest rate risk, credit risk, transaction risk, liquidity risk, security risk, strategic risk, reputation risk and compliance risk. While all of these risks are important, the risks of greatest significance to the Company relate to market or interest rate risk and credit risk.

Market risk is the risk of loss from adverse changes in market prices and/or interest rates. Since net interest income (the difference between interest earned on loans and investments and interest paid on deposits and borrowings) is the Company’s primary source of revenue, interest rate risk is the most significant non-credit related market risk to which the Company is exposed. Net interest income is affected by changes in interest rates as well as fluctuations in the level and duration of the Company’s assets and liabilities.

Interest rate risk is the exposure of the Company’s net interest income to adverse movements in interest rates. In addition to directly impacting net interest income, changes in interest rates can also affect the amount of new loan originations, the ability of borrowers and debt issuers to repay loans and debt securities, the volume of loan repayments and refinancings, and the flow and mix of deposits.

Credit risk is the risk to the Company’s earnings and shareholders’ equity that results from customers, to whom loans have been made and to the issuers of debt securities in which the Company has invested, failing to repay their obligations. The magnitude of risk depends on the capacity and willingness of borrowers and debt issuers to repay and the sufficiency of the value of collateral obtained to secure the loans made or investments purchased.

Special Note Regarding Forward Looking Statements

This quarterly report contains forward-looking statements. Greene County Bancorp, Inc. desires to take advantage of the “safe harbor” provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and is including this statement for the express purpose of availing itself of the protections of the safe harbor with respect to all such forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements, which are included in this Management’s Discussion and Analysis and elsewhere in this quarterly report, describe future plans or strategies and include Greene County Bancorp, Inc.’s expectations of future financial results. The words “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “project,” and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements. Greene County Bancorp, Inc.’s ability to predict results or the effect of future plans or strategies or qualitative or quantitative changes based on market risk exposure is inherently uncertain. Factors that could affect actual results include but are not limited to:

(a)	changes in general market interest rates,

(b)	general economic conditions, including unemployment rates and real estate values,

(c)	legislative and regulatory changes,

(d)	monetary and fiscal policies of the U.S. Treasury and the Federal Reserve,

(e)	changes in the quality or composition of The Bank of Greene County’s loan portfolio or the consolidated investment portfolios of The Bank of Greene County and Greene County Bancorp, Inc.,

(f)	deposit flows,

(g)	competition, and

(h)	demand for financial services in Greene County Bancorp, Inc.’s market area.

These factors should be considered in evaluating the forward-looking statements, and undue reliance should not be placed on such statements, since results in future periods may differ materially from those currently expected because of various risks and uncertainties.

Comparison of Financial Condition as of December 31, 2009 and June 30, 2009

ASSETS

Total assets of the Company were $473.1 million at December 31, 2009 as compared to $460.5 million at June 30, 2009, an increase of $12.6 million, or 2.7%. Securities available for sale and held to maturity amounted to $154.6 million, or 32.7% of assets, at December 31, 2009 as compared to $161.6 million, or 35.1% of assets, at June 30, 2009, a decrease of $7.0 million or 4.3%. Net loans grew by $15.5 million or 5.8% to $283.4 million at December 31, 2009 as compared to $267.9 million at June 30, 2009.

CASH AND CASH EQUIVALENTS

Total cash and cash equivalents increased to $12.1 million at December 31, 2009 as compared to $9.4 million at June 30, 2009, an increase of $2.7 million or 28.7%. The level of cash and cash equivalents is a function of the daily account clearing needs and deposit levels as well as activities associated with securities transactions and loan funding. All of these items can cause cash levels to fluctuate significantly on a daily basis.

SECURITIES

Securities, including both available-for-sale and held-to-maturity issues, decreased $7.0 million or 4.3% to $154.6 million at December 31, 2009 as compared to $161.6 million at June 30, 2009. Securities purchases totaled $9.5 million during the six months ended December 31, 2009 and consisted of $8.4 million in state and political subdivision securities and $1.1 million in mortgage-backed securities. Sales of securities totaled $1.8 million during the six months ended December 31, 2009 and consisted of corporate debt securities. Principal pay-downs and maturities amounted to $14.9 million, of which $5.2 million were mortgage-backed securities, $4.4 million were state and political subdivision securities and $5.0 million were U.S. government agency securities. Additionally, during the six months ended December 31, 2009, unrealized net gains on securities increased $693,000. Greene County Bancorp, Inc. held 24.0% of the securities portfolio at December 31, 2009 in state and political subdivision securities to take advantage of tax savings and to promote Greene County Bancorp, Inc.’s participation in the communities in which it operates. Mortgage-backed securities and asset-backed securities held within the portfolio do not contain sub-prime loans and are not exposed to the credit risk associated with such lending.

LOANS

Net loans receivable increased to $283.4 million at December 31, 2009 from $267.9 million at June 30, 2009, an increase of $15.5 million, or 5.8%. The loan growth experienced during the six months primarily consisted of $5.3 million in residential mortgages, $7.9 million in commercial real estate loans, $1.4 million in construction and land loans, and $2.0 million in non-mortgage loans, which was partially offset by a $940,000 decrease in home equity loans. The continued low interest rate environment and strong customer satisfaction from personal service continued to enhance loan growth. If long term rates begin to rise, the Company anticipates some slow down in new loan demand as well as refinancing activities. The Bank of Greene County continues to use a conservative underwriting policy in regard to all loan originations, and does not engage in sub-prime lending or the origination of other exotic loan products. It should be noted however that the Company is subject to the effects of any downturn, and especially, a significant decline in home values in the Company’s markets could have a negative effect on the consolidated results of operations. A significant decline in home values would likely lead to a decrease in residential real estate loan and new home equity loan originations and increased delinquencies and defaults in both the consumer home equity loan and the residential real estate loan portfolios and result in increased losses in these portfolios. As of December 31, 2009, declines in home values have been modest in the Company’s market area. However, updated appraisals are obtained on loans when there is a reason to believe that there has been a change in the borrower’s ability to repay the loan principal and interest, generally, when a loan is in a delinquent status. Additionally, if an existing loan is to be modified or refinanced, generally, an appraisal is ordered to ensure continued collateral adequacy.

ALLOWANCE FOR LOAN LOSSES

The allowance for loan losses is established through a provision for loan losses based on management’s evaluation of the risk inherent in the loan portfolio, the composition of the loan portfolio, specific impaired loans and current economic conditions. Such evaluation, which includes a review of all loans on which full collectibility may not be reasonably assured, considers among other matters, the estimated net realizable value or the fair value of the underlying collateral, economic conditions, historical loan loss experience and other factors that warrant recognition in providing for an allowance for loan loss. In addition, various regulatory agencies, as an integral part of their examination process, periodically review The Bank of Greene County’s allowance for loan losses and valuation of foreclosed real estate (“FRE”). Such agencies may require The Bank of Greene County to recognize additions to the allowance based on their judgment about information available to them at the time of their examination. The Bank of Greene County considers residential mortgages, home equity loans and installment loans to customers as small, homogeneous loans, which are evaluated for impairment collectively based on historical loss experience. Commercial mortgage and business loans are viewed individually and considered impaired if it is probable that The Bank of Greene County will not be able to collect scheduled payments of principal and interest when due, according to the contractual terms of the loan agreements. The measurement of impaired loans is generally based on the fair value of the underlying collateral. The allowance for loan losses is increased by a provision for loan losses (which results in a charge to expense) and recoveries of loans previously charged off and is reduced by net charge-offs.

Nonaccrual Loans and Nonperforming Assets

Loans are reviewed on a regular basis. Management determines that a loan is impaired or nonperforming when it is probable at least a portion of the loan will not be collected in accordance with its contractual terms due to an irreversible deterioration in the financial condition of the borrower or the value of the underlying collateral. When a loan is determined to be impaired, the measurement of the loan impairment is based on the present value of estimated future cash flows, except that all collateral-dependent loans are measured for impairment based on the fair value of the collateral. Management places loans on nonaccrual status once the loans have become 90 days or more delinquent. Nonaccrual is defined as a loan in which collectibility is questionable and therefore interest on the loan will no longer be recognized on an accrual basis. A loan does not have to be 90 days delinquent in order to be classified as nonperforming. Foreclosed real estate is considered nonperforming. The Bank of Greene County had no accruing loans delinquent more than 90 days at December 31, 2009 or June 30, 2009.

The Company identifies impaired loans and measures the impairment in accordance with FASB ASC subtopic “ Receivables – Loan Impairment” . A loan is considered impaired when it is probable that the borrower will be unable to repay the loan according to the original contractual terms of the loan agreement or the loan is restructured in a troubled debt restructuring. There was $98,000 in impaired loans as of December 31, 2009. This loan is performing in accordance with its restructured terms. The Company has allocated approximately $10,000 of the allowance for loan losses for this loan as of December 31, 2009.

Interest income of $48,000 and $32,000 was recorded on nonaccrual loans based on cash payments received during the six months ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively.

DEPOSITS

Total deposits increased to $399.2 million at December 31, 2009 from $398.7 million at June 30, 2009, an increase of $505,000, or 0.1%. Deposit balances shifted from money market deposits and certificates of deposit to interest bearing checking accounts (NOW accounts) and savings accounts. NOW accounts increased $7.8 million or 6.8% to $122.5 million at December 31, 2009 as compared to $114.8 million at June 30, 2009. Savings deposits increased $2.6 million to $85.2 million at December 31, 2009. Money market deposits decreased $7.2 million, or 11.5% to $55.2 million at December 31, 2009.

At December 31, 2009, there was $8.8 million outstanding under these facilities. Interest rates on these lines are determined at the time of borrowing. In addition to the overnight line of credit program, The Bank of Greene County also has access to the FHLB’s Term Advance Program under which it can borrow at various terms and interest rates. The Bank of Greene County pledges residential mortgages as collateral for these lines of credit and term borrowings. At December 31, 2009, approximately $108.9 million of collateral was available to be pledged against potential borrowings at the FHLB. The Bank also pledges securities as collateral at the Federal Reserve Bank discount window for overnight borrowings. At December 31, 2009, approximately $6.9 million of collateral was available to be pledged against potential borrowings at the Federal Reserve Bank discount window. There was $1.5 million outstanding with the Federal Reserve Bank at December 31, 2009.

At December 31, 2009, The Bank of Greene County had term borrowings totaling $19.0 million from the FHLB, of which $14.0 million consisted of several fixed rate, fixed term advances with a weighted average rate of 3.34% and a weighted average maturity of 16 months. The remaining $5.0 million borrowing, which carried a 3.64% interest rate at December 31, 2009, is unilaterally convertible by the FHLB under certain market interest rate scenarios, including three-month LIBOR at or above 7.50%, into replacement advances for the same or lesser principal amount based on the then current market rates. If the Bank chooses not to accept the replacement funding, the Bank must repay this convertible advance, including any accrued interest, on the interest payment date.

At December 31, 2009, Greene County Bancorp, Inc. had available a revolving line of credit of $5.0 million with Atlantic Central Bankers Bank (“ACBB”). The line of credit is secured by all of the outstanding shares of common stock of The Bank of Greene County. At December 31, 2009, there were no balances outstanding under this line of credit. This line of credit will mature on April 28, 2012 and carries a floating interest rate equal to the prime rate as reported in the Wall Street Journal.

EQUITY

Shareholders’ equity increased to $42.6 million at December 31, 2009 from $40.3 million at June 30, 2009, as net income of $2.4 million was partially offset by dividends declared and paid of $613,000. Additionally, shareholders’ equity increased $425,000 as a result of an increase in unrealized gains, net of tax in the available-for-sale investment portfolio, accretion of unrealized loss on securities transferred to held-to-maturity and the reclassification adjustment for loss on sale of available-for-sale securities. Other changes in equity, totaling a $147,000 increase, were the result of activities associated with the various stock-based compensation plans of the Company, including the 2000 and 2008 Stock Option Plans.

GENERAL

Return on average assets and return on average equity are common methods of measuring operating results. Annualized return on average assets increased to 1.02% for the six months and 1.03% for the quarter ended December 31, 2009 as compared to 0.88% for the six months and 0.94% for the quarter ended December 31, 2008. Annualized return on average equity increased to 11.59% for the six months and 11.56% for the quarter ended December 31, 2009 as compared to 10.01% for the six months and 11.13% for the quarter ended December 31, 2008. The increase in return on average assets and return on average equity was primarily the result of higher net interest income and higher noninterest income, partially offset by higher noninterest expense. Net income amounted to $2.4 million and $1.8 million for the six months ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively, an increase of $559,000 or 30.4% and amounted to $1.2 million and $1.0 million for the quarters ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively, an increase of $184,000 or 17.8%. Average assets increased $50.9 million, or 12.2% to $468.4 million for the six months ended December 31, 2009 as compared to $417.5 million for the six months ended December 31, 2008. Average equity increased $4.6 million, or 12.5%, to $41.4 million for the six months ended December 31, 2009 as compared to $36.8 million for the six months ended December 31, 2008. Average assets increased $32.8 million, or 7.5% to $472.2 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2009 as compared to $439.4 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2008. Average equity increased $5.0 million, or 13.5% to $42.1 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2009 as compared to $37.1 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2008.

INTEREST INCOME

Interest income amounted to $11.4 million for the six months ended December 31, 2009 as compared to $11.1 million for the six months ended December 31, 2008, an increase of $248,000 or 2.2%. Interest income amounted to $5.7 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2009 as compared to $5.8 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2008, a decrease of $72,000 or 1.2%. The increase in loan volume had the greatest impact on interest income when comparing the six months and quarters ended December 31, 2009 and 2008. Average loan balances increased $26.1 million for the six months ended December 31, 2009 as compared to December 31, 2008 while the yield decreased by 26 basis points when comparing the same periods. Average loan balances increased $23.4 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2009 as compared to the quarter ended December 31, 2008 and the yield decreased by 22 basis point when comparing the same periods. The overall impact on interest income from securities was negative with a 89 basis point decrease in yield when comparing the six months ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, partially offset by a $22.6 million increase in average balances, and an 86 basis point decrease in yield when comparing the quarters ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, partially offset by a $4.0 million increase in average balances. Average balances on short term investments such as interest bearing bank balances and federal funds sold increased $3.7 million and $7.2 million when comparing the six months and quarters ended December 31, 2009 and 2008. The yield on interest bearing bank balances decreased 146 basis points when comparing the six months ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, and decreased 99 basis points when comparing the quarters ended December 31, 2009 and 2008. The yield on federal funds sold decreased 140 basis points when comparing the six months ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, and decreased 37 basis points when comparing the quarters ended December 31, 2009 and 2008.

INTEREST EXPENSE

Interest expense amounted to $2.8 million for the six months ended December 31, 2009, as compared to $3.4 million for the six months ended December 31, 2008, a decrease of $643,000. Interest expense amounted to $1.4 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2009, as compared to $1.8 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2008, a decrease of $443,000. Decreases in rates on interest-bearing liabilities had the greatest impact on overall interest expense. Interest expense was reduced $964,000 and $500,000 when comparing the six months and quarters ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively, due to decreases of 58 basis points and 59 basis points, respectively, in the average rate on interest-bearing liabilities in those same periods. This decrease was partially offset by a $321,000 and $57,000 increase in interest expense due to a $46.8 million and $26.4 million increase in average balances when comparing the six months and quarters ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The average rate paid on NOW deposits decreased 61 basis points and 62 basis points, respectively, when comparing the six months and quarters ended December 31, 2009 and 2008. The average balance of such accounts grew by $10.4 million for the six months ended December 31, 2009 and decreased by $5.5 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2009. The average balance of certificates of deposit grew by $5.9 million and the average rate paid decreased by 70 basis points when comparing the six months ended December 31, 2009 and 2008. The average balance of certificates of deposit grew by $3.6 million and the average rate paid decreased by 80 basis points when comparing the quarters ended December 31, 2009 and 2008. The average balance of savings and money market deposits increased by $31.1 million when comparing the six months ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 and increased by $30.6 million when comparing the quarters ended December 31, 2009 and 2008. The average rate paid on savings and money markets decreased 39 basis points and 36 basis points when comparing the six months and quarters ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. The average balance of borrowings decreased $675,000 and $2.4 million when comparing the six months and quarters ended December 31, 2009 and 2008. The rate paid on these borrowings increased 2 basis points and 24 basis points when comparing the same periods.

NET INTEREST INCOME

Net interest income increased $891,000 to $8.6 million for the six months ended December 31, 2009 compared to the six months ended December 31, 2008 and increased $371,000 to $4.3 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2009 compared to the quarter ended December 31, 2008. Net interest spread increased 4 basis points to 3.64% for the six months ended December 31, 2009 from 3.60% for the six months ended December 31, 2008, and 10 basis points to 3.65% for the quarter ended December 31, 2009 as compared to 3.55% for the quarter ended December 31, 2008. Net interest margin decreased 5 basis points to 3.84% for the six months ended December 31, 2009 from 3.89% for the six months ended December 31, 2008, and increased 4 basis points to 3.85% for the quarter ended December 31, 2009 as compared to 3.81% for the quarter ended December 31, 2008. The increase in average balances, along with the widening of the net interest spread led to an increase in net interest income when comparing the six months and quarters ended December 31, 2009 and 2008.

Due to the large portion of fixed rate residential mortgages in the Company’s asset portfolio, interest rate risk is a concern and the Company will continue to monitor the situation and attempt to adjust the asset and liability mix as much as possible to take advantage of the benefits and reduce the risks or potential negative effects of a rising rate environment. Management attempts to mitigate the interest rate risk through balance sheet composition. Several strategies are used to help manage interest rate risk such as maintaining a high level of liquid assets such as short-term federal funds sold and various investment securities and maintaining a high concentration of less interest-rate sensitive and lower-costing core deposits.

PROVISION FOR LOAN LOSSES

Management continues to closely monitor asset quality and adjust the level of the allowance for loan losses when necessary. The provision for loan losses amounted to $677,000 and $613,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively, an increase of $64,000 or 10.4%. The provision for loan losses amounted to $429,000 and $418,000 for the quarters ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively, an increase of $11,000. The increase in the level of provision was partially a result of growth in the loan portfolio, with a continued shift to a greater level of commercial loans, and an increase in the amount of nonperforming assets and loan charge-offs. The commercial real estate and commercial loan portfolio has grown as a percent of total loans from 18.2% at December 31, 2008 to 24.1% at December 31, 2009. Generally, commercial loans are considered to have greater credit risk, and require a higher level of allowance for loan loss. Nonperforming assets amounted to $3.6 million and $1.8 million at December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively, an increase of $1.8 million or 100%. Of this increase, $1.0 million was in residential mortgage loans, and $822,000 was in commercial real estate loans. Net charge-offs amounted to $419,000 and $293,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively, an increase of $126,000. The increase in the level of nonperforming assets and charge-offs reflected the decline in the overall economy. As a result, the level of allowance for loan losses to total loans receivable has been increased to 1.28% as of December 31, 2009 as compared to 0.84% as of December 31, 2008. At December 31, 2009, nonperforming assets were 0.76% of total assets and nonperforming loans were 1.27% of total loans. The Company has not been an originator of “no documentation” mortgage loans and the loan portfolio does not include any mortgage loans that the Company classifies as sub-prime.

NONINTEREST INCOME

Noninterest income increased $211,000 and $54,000 when comparing the six months and quarters ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, respectively. Noninterest income amounted to $2.4 million and $1.2 million for the six months and quarter ended December 31, 2009. One factor that affected noninterest income for the six months ended December 31, 2008 was the other-than-temporary impairment of $221,000 ($135,000 net of tax) on a Lehman Brothers Holdings, Inc. debt security, which resulted from the bankruptcy filing of that company. The Company did not recognize any other-than-temporary losses during the six months or quarter ended December 31, 2009. The Company recorded a net loss on sale of investments during the quarters ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 totaling $5,000 and $12,000, respectively. Excluding these items, noninterest income decreased $17,000 when comparing the six months ended December 31, 2009 and 2008, and increased $47,000 when comparing the quarters ended December 31, 2009 and 2008. Debit card fees increased $76,000 and $57,000 when comparing the six months and quarters ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 as a result of a higher volume of transactions due to growth in the number of checking accounts with debit cards. E-commerce fee income decreased when comparing both the six months and quarters ended December 31, 2009 and 2008 as a result of the transfer of the Company’s merchant bank card processing business to TransFirst LLC during fiscal 2009.

NONINTEREST EXPENSE

Noninterest expense increased $174,000 or 2.7% to $6.7 million for the six months ended December 31, 2009 as compared to $6.5 million for the six months ended December 31, 2008. Noninterest expense increased $150,000 or 4.8% to $3.3 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2009 as compared to $3.2 million for the quarter ended December 31, 2008. The increases for both the six months and the quarter ended December 31, 2009 was primarily the result of an increase in FDIC insurance premium expense due to both higher deposit balances and an increase in the rates assessed against the deposits as well as higher compensation and depreciation due to the opening of the new Ravena branch in January 2009. The Company also has increased staffing as a result of the creation of a new customer service call center and expansion of the marketing department. Partially offsetting the increase for the six months ended December 31, 2009, was a decrease in pension expense. During the six months ended December 31, 2008, the Company accrued $351,000 toward the expected future termination of its currently frozen defined benefit plan. The defined benefit pension plan was transferred to a single-employer plan from the previously existing multi-employer plan during the fourth quarter of the fiscal year ended June 30, 2009. As a result, pension expense decreased by $347,000 for the six months ended December 31, 2009 when compared to the six months ended December 31, 2008.

INCOME TAXES

The provision for income taxes reflected the expected tax associated with the revenue generated for the given period and certain regulatory requirements. The effective tax rate was 34.5% for the six months ended December 31, 2009, compared to 34.2% for the six months ended December 31, 2008. The effective tax rate was 34.4% for the quarter ended December 31, 2009, compared to 35.1% for the quarter ended December 31, 2008.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Market risk is the risk of loss in a financial instrument arising from adverse changes in market rates or prices such as interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, commodity prices, and equity prices. Greene County Bancorp, Inc.’s most significant form of market risk is interest rate risk since the majority of Greene County Bancorp, Inc.’s assets and liabilities are sensitive to changes in interest rates. Greene County Bancorp, Inc.’s primary sources of funds are deposits and proceeds from principal and interest payments on loans, mortgage-backed securities and debt securities, with lines of credit available through the Federal Home Loan Bank, Federal Reserve Bank and Atlantic Central Bankers Bank as needed. While maturities and scheduled amortization of loans and securities are predictable sources of funds, deposit outflows, mortgage prepayments, and lending activities are greatly influenced by general interest rates, economic conditions and competition.

Mortgage loan commitments, including construction and land loan commitments, totaled $5.8 million at December 31, 2009. The unused portion of overdraft lines of credit amounted to $708,000, the unused portion of home equity lines of credit amounted to $7.9 million, and the unused portion of commercial lines of credit amounted to $5.3 million at December 31, 2009. Greene County Bancorp, Inc. anticipates that it will have sufficient funds available to meet current loan commitments based on the level of cash and cash equivalents as well as the available for sale investment portfolio and borrowing capacity.

The Bank of Greene County and Greene County Commercial Bank met all applicable regulatory capital requirements at December 31, 2009 and June 30, 2009. Consolidated shareholders’ equity represented 9.0% of total assets at December 31, 2009 and 8.7% of total assets of June 30, 2009.

Item 4T. Controls and Procedures

Under the supervision and with the participation of the Company's management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the Company evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this report, the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission's rules and forms and in timely altering them to material information relating to the Company (or its consolidated subsidiaries) required to be filed in its periodic SEC filings.
