Item 1.01            Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

     Radian Group Inc. (the “Company”) does not currently view the Stipulation (referred to in Item 8.01) as a material amendment to the Merger Agreement (referred to in Item 8.01) within the meaning of Item 1.01 of Form 8-K. In the event it is determined, however, that the Stipulation is a material amendment to such Merger Agreement within the meaning of Item 1.01, the text of Item 8.01 describing the Stipulation is incorporated by reference herein.

Item 8.01            Other Events.

     On August 24, 2007, the Company and MGIC Investment Corporation (“MGIC”) entered into a Stipulation to Set Briefing Schedule and Hearing Date for Motion of MGIC for Specific Performance (the “Stipulation”). The Stipulation was filed with the Federal District Court for the Eastern District of Wisconsin in MGIC Investment Corporation v. Radian Group Inc. pending in that court (the “Litigation”).

     Among other things, the Stipulation provides that subject to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, dated as of February 6, 2007, as amended (the “Merger Agreement”), the Closing Date for the merger between the Company and MGIC will be in accordance with Section 9.1 of the Merger Agreement, except that in no event shall the Closing take place before five business days after final resolution of the Litigation. Section 9.1 of the Merger Agreement provides that the Closing Date is to occur no later than five business days after all closing conditions (other than those to be satisfied at Closing) have been satisfied or waived, including receipt of all regulatory approvals.
