Pulaski Bank announced today that four new residential loan officers have joined the bank's St. Louis mortgage team. The bank is already one of the top residential lenders in the St. Louis market, having originated $1.2 billion in residential mortgages in fiscal 2005. These veteran loan officers will help bolster the bank's position in the market, as they produced over $100 million in combined mortgage loan production last year. They all take pride in delivering extraordinary customer service and have solid realtor relationships.

Nick Maddock joins Pulaski Bank as Vice President and will continue serving customers and agents in South St. Louis and Jefferson counties. Nick was previously branch manager for GMAC Mortgage and has over 15 years' experience in the mortgage field.

Randy Morgan has been appointed a Vice President of the bank. He has a great customer base in Jefferson County. Randy was previously Mortgage Department Manager at Belgrade State Bank, and before that was the top mortgage producer for GMAC Mortgage.

Kathy Doyle joins Pulaski as Senior Loan Officer and enjoys a great customer and real estate agent following in South St. Louis County. Kathy has enjoyed over 20 years of success with Leader Financial, recently re-named Market Street Mortgage.

Mark Becker becomes a Senior Loan Officer and enjoys great success serving agents and customers in Southwest St. Louis County and Clayton. Previously, Mark was associated with US Bank for over 10 years.

These new loan officers enable Pulaski to expand its presence, particularly in the South County area and Jefferson County markets. They will also enable the bank to solidify its already strong relationships with some of the premier real estate firms in St. Louis.

Pulaski Bank is a subsidiary of Pulaski Financial Corp. (NASDAQ: PULB), which is operating in its 84th year serving customers throughout the St. Louis and Kansas City metropolitan areas. The bank offers a full line of quality retail-banking products through eight full-service branch offices. The company's website can be accessed at www.pulaskibankstl.com.
