Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.

(b) On July 23, 2014, Curt S. Culver, who has been the Company’s Chief Executive Officer ("CEO") since 2000 and Chairman of its Board of Directors (the "Board") since 2005, announced that he will retire as CEO of the Company, effective March 1, 2015. After his retirement as CEO, Mr. Culver will continue to serve as Chairman of the Board, which will be a non-executive position.

(c) On July 23, 2014, the Board appointed Patrick Sinks, who has been the Company’s President and Chief Operating Officer since 2006, as CEO effective upon Mr. Culver’s retirement and elected him to the Board effective July 23, 2014.

Mr. Sinks, age 57, has been with the Company since 1978. Prior to becoming President and Chief Operating Officer, he was Executive Vice President-Field Operations of Mortgage Guaranty Insurance Corporation, our principal subsidiary ("MGIC"), from 2004 to 2006, and was Senior Vice President-Field Operations of MGIC from 2002 to 2004. Before he assumed his Field Operations position, he held various positions within MGIC’s finance and accounting organization, the last of which was Senior Vice President, Controller and Chief Accounting Officer. He earned his MBA from the University of Wisconsin – Milwaukee, and holds a Bachelor of Science Degree in accounting from the University of Mary.

(e) Mr. Culver will be paid an annual retainer of $250,000 for his service as Chairman of the Board, in addition to compensation paid to non-employee directors for service on the Board. Our Proxy Statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 24, 2014, describes our current arrangements for compensation paid to non-employee directors for service on the Board.





Item 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.

(a) On July 23, 2014, the Board approved amendments to Article IV of the Bylaws of the Company that will become effective upon Curt Culver’s retirement as Chief Executive Officer of the Company.
