PrimeLending Inducted into Hall of Honor Program

DALLAS, TX (Oct. 21, 2014) – National residential mortgage lender PrimeLending, a PlainsCapital Company and subsidiary of Hilltop Holdings Inc. (NYSE: HTH), announced today that it was inducted into the Mortgage Bankers Association’s Hall of Honor program.

The Hall of Honor program was created to acknowledge MBA member companies with programs that serve our nation’s veterans and military in three categories – financial counseling, employment opportunities and homeownership assistance. PrimeLending’s induction into the Hall of Honor is one of 17 given to MBA companies in these categories at MBA’s 2014 Annual Convention.

“I am pleased to present this honor to PrimeLending,” says Bill Cosgrove, CMB, 2015 MBA Chairman. “PrimeLending, through their commitment to helping the military community, has demonstrated a first-class service toward recognizing the men and women who defend our nation. It’s programs such as these that reinforce the mortgage industry’s dedication to the military.”

One example of PrimeLending’s commitment to helping veterans is Shirley Mueller, a PrimeLending Branch Manager in Austin, Texas. She helps veterans by educating them on their benefits under the U.S. Veterans Affairs home loan program and Texas Veterans Land Board home loan program. She also assists disabled or unemployable veterans who have additional benefits under the federal and state programs as well as educates real estate professionals about veteran benefits so they will be aware of the options for their military clients.

“At PrimeLending, we believe the VA home loan program is the cornerstone for our veterans and active military entering the housing market,” says Steve Thompson, PrimeLending’s Executive Vice President and National Production Manager. “We also recognize they have earned this benefit for their service to our country and that they make excellent homeowners because of their loyalty, gratitude and discipline. We aim to serve our veteran and military borrowers with our VA mortgage expertise and local market presence.”
