Explanatory Note
Kentucky Bancshares, Inc. ("Company" or "Kentucky") is filing this Amendment
No. 2 on Form 10-K/A (this "Amendment") to its Annual Report on Form 10-K for
the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007 (the "Form 10-K"). The Form 10-K was
originally filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") on March
31, 2008 and amended on August 18, 2008. The purpose of this Amendment is to
further clarify and correct certain information related to management's report
on internal controls over financial reporting previously disclosed in Item 9.
"Changes In and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and Financial
Disclosure" of Part I of the Form 10-K. Management's Report on Internal
Control Over Financial Reporting was inadvertently omitted from the previously
filed Form 10-K. Appropriate internal controls over financial reporting are
in place. Management attest that the disclosures are reasonable and
effective, and these controls have not significantly changed. Internal Audit
has tested the operating effectiveness of these controls.
As required by Rule 12b-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the
Company has set forth in this Amendment the complete text of Part I, Item 9.
of the Form 10-K, as amended. This Amendment does not change any other
information set forth in the Form 10-K.
As a result of this Amendment, the Company is also including updated
certifications required under Section 302 and Section 906 of the Sarbanes-
Oxley Act of 2002.
This Amendment does not reflect events occurring after the date of the Form
10-K nor does it modify or update the disclosure contained in the Form 10-K in
any way other than as required to reflect the amendments discussed above and
reflected below. Accordingly, this Amendment should be read in conjunction
with the Form 10-K and the Company's other filings made with the SEC
subsequent to the filing of the Form 10-K.
PART I
Item 9. Changes In and Disagreements with Accountants on Accounting and
Financial Disclosure
None
Item 9A(T). Controls and Procedures
A. Disclosure Controls & Procedures
The Company's management, with participation of the Company's Chief
Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the
effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures as of
December 31, 2007. Based on the evaluation, the Company's Chief
Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that the
Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of
December 31, 2007. There was no change in the Company's internal
control over financial reporting during the fourth quarter of 2007 that
has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect,
such internal control over financial reporting.
B. Management's Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
Management of the Company is responsible for establishing and
maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting as
defined in Rules 13a-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.
The Company's internal control over financial reporting is designed to
provide reasonable assurance to the Company's management and Board of
Directors regarding the preparation and fair presentation of published
financial statements.
Management assessed the effectiveness of the Company's internal control
over financial reporting as of December 31, 2007. In making this
assessment, management used the criteria set forth by the Committee of
Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (COSO) in Internal
Control - Integrated Framework. Based on our assessment, we believe
that, as of December 31, 2007, the Company's internal control over
financial reporting is effective based on those criteria.
This annual report does not include an attestation report of the
Company's registered public accounting firm regarding internal control
over financial reporting. Management's report was not subject to
attestation by the Company's registered public accounting firm pursuant
to temporary rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission that permit
the Company to provide only management's report in this annual report.
