Item 1.01     Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On November 21, 2014, NMI Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an indemnification agreement with each of the directors of the Company, including the Company's Chairman, President and CEO, Mr. Shuster and each of the following executive officers of the Company: William J. Leatherberry, Chief Legal Counsel; Patrick Mathis, Chief Risk Officer; Claudia J. Merkle, Chief of Insurance Operations; Stanley M. Pachura, Chief Information Officer; Peter C. Pannes, Chief Sales Officer; and John M. Sherwood, Jr., Chief Financial Officer (the "Indemnification Agreements"). The Indemnification Agreements require the Company to indemnify these individuals to the fullest extent permitted under Delaware law against liability that may arise by reason of their service to the Company and also provide for rights to advancement of expenses.

The foregoing description of the Indemnification Agreements is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Form of Indemnification Agreement, which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated herein by reference. The Form of Indemnification Agreement is a standard form for each of the Company’s directors and executive officers and replaces the form of indemnification agreement in use by the Company since 2012. For each of the current directors, including Mr. Shuster, who had entered into the Company’s previous form of indemnification agreement, the Indemnification Agreements will replace and supersede such previous indemnification agreements with the Company. The Company anticipates that it will enter into a substantially similar Form of Indemnification Agreement with any new directors or executive officers.
