Check the appropriate box below if the Form 8-K filing is intended to simultaneously satisfy the filing obligation of the registrant under any of the following provisions (see General Instruction A.2. below):

On April 8, 2015, the Registrant, acting through its wholly-owned subsidiaries American Hallmark Insurance Company, Inc., TBIC Holdings, Inc. and Texas Builders Insurance Company of Texas (collectively, the “Sellers”), executed an Asset and Renewal Rights Acquisition Agreement (the “Sale Agreement”) with Redpoint Comp Holdings LLC (“Purchaser”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Redpoint Insurance Group LLC. Pursuant to the Sale Agreement, Purchaser has agreed to acquire from Sellers exclusive renewal rights to Sellers’ current in force Texas workers compensation policies, together with certain physical assets associated with the administration of such in-force policies. In consideration for such renewal rights and physical assets, Purchaser has agreed to assume certain office lease obligations of Sellers and to offer employment to certain employees of Sellers. Purchaser and Sellers have further agreed that Purchaser will administer the run-off of all of Sellers’ current workers compensation policies and claims for a period of three years in consideration of Sellers’ payment to Purchaser of a one-time fee of $75,000. The Sale Agreement contains various other representations, warranties and covenants of the parties, including Sellers’ covenant not to compete in the workers compensation line of insurance in the State of Texas (with certain exceptions) until after the assumed office lease obligations expire on October 31, 2017. The contemplated transaction is expected to close on or before June 30, 2015.

The foregoing description of the Sale Agreement is qualified in its entirety by reference to the definitive agreement filed as an exhibit to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by this reference.
