We consider the Green functions $\mathcal G$ for second-order coercive differential operators on homogeneous manifolds of negative curvature, being a semi-direct product of a~nilpotent Lie group $N$ and $A=\R^+$. Estimates for derivatives of the Green functions $\mathcal G$ with respect to the $N$ and $A$-variables are obtained. This paper completes a previous work of the author (see \cite{pota, ejde}) where estimates for derivatives of the Green functions for the noncoercive operators has been obtained. Here we show how to use the previous methods and results from \cite{pota} in order to get analogous estimates for coercive operators. AMS subject classification: 22E25, 43A85, 53C30, 31B25. Keywords: Green function, second-order differential operators, $NA$ groups, Bessel process, evolutions on nilpotent Lie groups.
