RACINE, WI. – Peter Engel, Executive Vice President of Consumer Banking for

Johnson Bank, was pleased to announce the bank’s Mortgage team recently surpassed the

$4 Billion mark in loans serviced. Johnson Bank originates mortgage loans in 40 locations

throughout Wisconsin and Arizona and now services more than 25,500 loans.

“This achievement is largely a result of the great service our team provides to our

clients over the life of their loan,” said Bill Winkler, Director of Mortgage Services. “The strong

reputation in the communities in which we lend has allowed our professionals to build trust

with our clients over time.”

“We are proud to be a Wisconsin-based bank that services all the mortgage loans we

originate,” added Engel.

Johnson Bank Mortgage has had four consecutive years of loan volumes exceeding

$1 billion, with more than $1.56 billion in mortgage loans closed in 2012. While refinancing

represented a significant percentage of closed loan volume last year, the bank is seeing

increased new home construction and purchase activity in 2013.
