Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

The information set forth under item 2.03 below is incorporated by reference into this item 1.01.

Item 2.03. Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

On January 28, 2013, Radian Group Inc. (the “Company”) commenced an exchange offer (the “Exchange Offer”) pursuant to which the Company offered to exchange up to $195,176,000 aggregate principal amount of its outstanding unregistered 9.000% Senior Notes due 2017 (the “Unregistered Notes”) for a like principal amount of registered 9.000% Senior Notes due 2017 (the “Registered Notes”) that have been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The Exchange Offer expired at 11:59 p.m., New York City time, on February 25, 2013.

On February 28, 2013 (the “Settlement Date”), pursuant to the Exchange Offer, the Company issued $195,126,000 aggregate principal amount of Registered Notes in exchange for the same principal amount of Unregistered Notes. The Registered Notes are substantially identical to the Unregistered Notes, except that the Registered Notes have been registered under the Securities Act, are not subject to restrictions on transfer and do not entitle their holders to registration rights.

The Registered Notes were issued pursuant to a Senior Indenture, dated as of June 7, 2005, between the Company and U.S. Bank National Association, as successor trustee to Wells Fargo Bank, NA (the “Senior Indenture”), as supplemented by an Officers’ Certificate, dated as of February 28, 2013 (the “Officers’ Certificate”), containing the terms of the Registered Notes. The Senior Indenture, together with the Officers’ Certificate, sets forth the terms of the Registered Notes and the obligations of the Company thereunder. Following is a brief description of the material terms of the Registered Notes, the Senior Indenture and the Officers’ Certificate, which summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Officers’ Certificate (which includes the form of the Registered Notes) and the Senior Indenture, which are exhibits hereto.

The Registered Notes are general unsecured obligations of the Company that rank senior in right of payment to all of the Company’s existing and future indebtedness that is expressly subordinated in right of payment to the Registered Notes. The Registered Notes rank equally in right of payment with all of the Company’s existing and future liabilities that are not so subordinated. The Registered Notes will mature on June 15, 2017. Interest on the Registered Notes will be payable semi-annually in arrears on June 15 and December 15 of each year, commencing on June 15, 2013. The Company may redeem the Registered Notes, in whole or in part, at its option at any time or from time to time, at a redemption price equal to the greater of (i) 100% of the aggregate principal amount of the Registered Notes to be redeemed and (ii) the present value of the Registered Notes discounted at the Treasury rate plus 50 basis points.

The Registered Notes contain covenants that impose conditions on the Company’s ability to create liens on any capital stock of its Designated Subsidiaries (as defined below) or engage in sales of the capital stock of its Designated Subsidiaries. “Designated Subsidiary” means any present or future consolidated subsidiary, the consolidated stockholders’ equity of which constitutes at least 15% of the Company’s consolidated stockholders’ equity. The Registered Notes are subject to customary events of default (subject in certain cases to customary grace and cure periods), which include nonpayment, breach of covenants and certain events of bankruptcy and insolvency. Generally, if an event of default occurs and is continuing, the trustee or holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the then outstanding Registered Notes may declare the principal of, premium, if any, and accrued and unpaid interest on all the Registered Notes to be due and payable immediately.

This disclosure does not constitute an offer to purchase, the solicitation of an offer to purchase, or a solicitation of tenders. The exchange offer was made only pursuant to a prospectus that was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) as part of the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-4 (File No. 333-186060). The Registration Statement was declared effective by the SEC on January 28, 2013.
