#### TABLE OF CONTENTS

#### Solicitation of Proxies
**Huntington and Veritex will share equally the expenses incurred in connection with the printing and mailing of this proxy statement/prospectus. To assist in the solicitation of proxies, Veritex has retained Okapi Partners LLC, for a fee of $25,000 plus reimbursement of out-of-pocket expenses for their services. Veritex and its proxy solicitor will also request banks, brokers, trustees and other intermediaries holding shares of Veritex common stock beneficially owned by others to send this document to, and obtain proxies from, the beneficial owners and may reimburse such record holders for their reasonable out-of-pocket expenses in so doing. Solicitation of proxies by mail may be supplemented by telephone and other electronic means, advertisements and personal solicitation by the directors, officers or employees of Veritex. No additional compensation will be paid to Veritex’s directors, officers or employees for solicitation.

You should not send in any Veritex stock certificates with your proxy card (or, if you hold your shares in “street name” your voting instruction card). The exchange agent will mail a transmittal letter with instructions for the surrender of stock certificates to holders of Veritex common stock as soon as practicable after completion of the merger.

Other Matters to Come Before the Veritex Special Meeting

Veritex management knows of no other business to be presented at the Veritex special meeting, but if any other matters are properly presented to the meeting or any adjournments thereof, the persons named in the proxies will vote upon them in accordance with the Veritex board of directors’ recommendations.
