Only those items amended or supplemented are reported in this Amendment No. 1. Except as specifically provided herein, the information contained in the Schedule TO remains unchanged and this Amendment No. 1 does not modify any of the information previously reported on the Schedule TO. You should read this Amendment No. 1 together with the Schedule TO, the Offer to Purchase dated September 23, 2020 (the “Offer to Purchase”) and the related Letter of Transmittal (the “Letter of Transmittal”), as each may be amended or supplemented from time to time.

In the Offer to Purchase, dated September 23, 2020, the section captioned “Summary Term Sheet” is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:
| · | The third sentence of the answer to “What will be the Purchase Price for the shares?” is hereby amended and restated to state: |
“We will determine the Purchase Price promptly following the Expiration Date, on the terms and subject to the conditions of the Offer to Purchase (including the “odd lot” priority, proration and conditional tender provisions).”
| · | The second sentence of the answer to “What will be the form of payment of the Purchase Price?” is hereby amended and restated to state: |
“On the terms and subject to the conditions of the Offer to Purchase (including the “odd lot” priority, proration and conditional tender provisions), promptly following the Expiration Date, we will pay the Purchase Price less any applicable withholding taxes and without interest, for each of your shares that we purchase pursuant to the tender offer.”
| · | The third sentence of the answer to the question “When and how will the Company pay for the shares I tender?” is hereby deleted. |
| · | The following sentence is hereby added to the end of the fourth paragraph of the answer to “How do I tender my shares?”: |
“Only one box under (1) or (2) may be checked. If more than one box is checked, or if no box is checked, there is no proper tender of shares.”
Item 4. | Terms of the Transaction. |
Item 4 is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:
The changes described above in Item 1 of this Amendment No. 1 are hereby incorporated into this Item 4 by reference.
The section of the Offer to Purchase captioned “Introduction” is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:
| · | The second paragraph under “To Our Holders of Common Stock” is hereby amended and restated to state: |
“The tender offer will expire at 12:00 midnight, New York City time, at the end of the day on October 30, 2020 (such date and time, as the same may be extended, the “Expiration Date”), unless extended or terminated. We may, in our sole discretion, extend the period of time in which the tender offer will remain open. We may also terminate the tender offer under certain circumstances. See Section 7 and Section 14.”
The section of the Offer to Purchase captioned “1. Number of Shares; Proration” is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:
| · | The following sentence is hereby added to the end of the fourth paragraph under “—General”: |
“Only one box under (1) or (2) may be checked. If more than one box is checked, or if no box is checked, there is no proper tender of shares.”
| · | The fourth sentence of the first paragraph under “—Proration” is hereby amended and restated to state: |
“We expect that we will announce the final proration factor and pay the Purchase Price for any shares purchased pursuant to the tender offer promptly after the Expiration Date, after we have determined the number of shares properly tendered, including shares tendered by guaranteed delivery procedures, as described in Section 3, and not properly withdrawn.”
The section of the Offer to Purchase captioned “3. Procedures for Tendering Shares” is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:
| · | The following sentence is hereby added to the end of the second paragraph under “—Proper Tender of Shares”: |
“Only one box under (1) or (2) may be checked. If more than one box is checked, or if no box is checked, there is no proper tender of shares.”
The section of the Offer to Purchase captioned “7. Conditions of the Tender Offer” is amended as follows:
| · | The final paragraph of such section is hereby amended and restated to state: |
“Each of the conditions referred to above is for our sole benefit and may be asserted or waived by us, in whole or in part, prior to the Expiration Date. Any determination by us concerning the satisfaction of the conditions described above will be final and binding on all parties, except as finally determined in a subsequent judicial proceeding if our determinations are challenged by stockholders. Our failure at any time to exercise any of the foregoing rights will not be deemed a waiver of any right, and each such right will be deemed an ongoing right that may be asserted at any time prior to the Expiration Date. However, once the tender offer has expired, then all of the conditions to the tender offer must have been satisfied or waived. In certain circumstances, if we waive any of the conditions described above or otherwise elect to proceed with the tender offer despite any such conditions not being satisfied, then we may be required to extend the tender offer. Our right to terminate or amend the tender offer or to postpone the acceptance for payment of, or the purchase of and the payment for shares tendered if any of the above listed events occur (or shall have been reasonably determined by us to have occurred) at any time at or prior to the Expiration Date shall not be affected by any subsequent event, regardless of whether such subsequent event otherwise would have resulted in the event having been “cured” or ceasing to exist.”
The section of the Offer to Purchase captioned “14. Extension of the Tender Offer; Termination; Amendment” is amended as follows:
| · | The second sentence of the first paragraph of such section is hereby amended and restated to state: |
“We also expressly reserve the right to terminate the tender offer and not accept for payment or pay for any shares not theretofore accepted for payment or paid for or, subject to applicable law and regulation, to postpone payment for shares upon the occurrence of any of the conditions specified in Section 7 hereof by giving oral or written notice of such termination or postponement to the Depositary and making a public announcement of such termination or postponement.”
Item 10. | Financial Statements. |
Item 10 is hereby amended and restated as follows:
“Not applicable. Pursuant to Instruction 2 to Item 10 of Schedule TO, the Company’s financial statements are not considered material because (i) the consideration consists solely of cash, (ii) the tender offer is not subject to any financing condition, and (iii) the Company is a public reporting company under Section 13(a) of the Exchange Act that files reports electronically on EDGAR. The Company has voluntarily included the Company’s financial statements by means of the incorporation by reference of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 and the Company’s Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarters ended March 31, 2020 and June 30, 2020.”

| · | The first paragraph of such section is hereby amended and restated to state: |
“In making the tender offer, we are not aware of any U.S. State where the making of the tender offer is not in compliance with applicable law. If, however, we become aware that the making of the tender offer or the acceptance of shares pursuant to the tender offer is not permitted by administrative or judicial action pursuant to a U.S. State statute (“State Law”), we will make a good faith effort to comply with such applicable State Law. If, after such good faith effort, we cannot comply with the applicable State Law, the tender offer will not be made to the holders of shares in that U.S. State.

In the Letter of Transmittal, the fourth paragraph on page 8 is hereby deleted in its entirety.
In the Summary Advertisement, dated September 23, 2020, the first paragraph on page 1 is hereby amended and restated to state:
“This announcement is neither an offer to purchase nor a solicitation of an offer to sell shares of Hilltop Holdings Inc. The tender offer (as defined below) is made solely by the Offer to Purchase, dated September 23, 2020, and the related Letter of Transmittal, and any amendments or supplements thereto. In making the tender offer, we are not aware of any U.S. State where the making of the tender offer is not in compliance with applicable law. If, however, we become aware that the making of the tender offer or the acceptance of shares pursuant to the tender offer is not permitted by administrative or judicial action pursuant to a U.S. State statute (“State Law”), we will make a good faith effort to comply with such applicable State Law. If, after such good faith effort, we cannot comply with the applicable State Law, the tender offer will not be made to the holders of shares in that U.S. State.
