Explanatory Note

This Amendment on Form 10-K/A is being filed because the Registrant’s
originally filing on Form 10-K (i) inadvertently omitted the performance graph required by Item 5 and (ii) the certification filed
as Exhibit 32 incorrectly stated the filing date of the Form 10-K. Other than correcting these two items, there have been no changes
to the information filed in the original Form 10-K.









Item 5. Market for Registrant’s
Common Equity, Related Stockholder Matters and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities.

Market Information for Common Stock

Our common stock has been listed
on the NASDAQ Global Market under the symbol “CNOB” since February 12, 2013. Prior to that time, there was no public
market for our stock. We have not paid cash dividends on our common stock since the formation of the Bank in 2005. The following
table sets forth for the periods indicated the high and low reported sale prices as reported on the NASDAQ.

|               |      |             |     | 
|-------------- | ---- | ----------- | --- | 
|2013           |      | Sales Price
|               | High |             | Low
|First Quarter  |      |             | $   | 
|Second Quarter |      |             | $   | 
|Third Quarter  |      |             | $   | 
|Fourth Quarter |      |             | $   | 

Holders of Record

As of February 7, 2014, there were
371 stockholders of record of our common stock. Because many of our shares of common stock are held by brokers and other institutions
on behalf of stockholders, we are unable to estimate the total number of stockholders represented by these record holders.

Equity Compensation Plan Information

The following table presents certain information regarding
our equity compensation plans as of December 31, 2013.

Performance Graph

The following
graph compares the cumulative total return on a hypothetical $100 investment made on February 11, 2013, the day of the Company’s
initial public offering, of: (a) the Company’s common stock; (b) the NASDAQ Index; and (c) the Keefe, Bruyette &
Woods’ KBW Bank Index. The graph is calculated assuming that all dividends are reinvested during the relevant periods. The
graph shows how a $100 investment would increase or decrease in value over time based on dividends (stock or cash) and increases
or decreases in the market price of the stock.
