ITEM 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.

On December 13, 2012, the United States Bankruptcy Court for the District of Delaware issued an order approving the Stipulation of Settlement (the “Stipulation”) entered into by The PMI Group, Inc. (“TPG”), the Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors in TPG’s Chapter 11 bankruptcy case (the “Creditors’ Committee”), TPG’s subsidiary PMI Mortgage Insurance Co. (“MIC”), the receiver for MIC (the “Receiver”) and the special deputy receiver of MIC (the “Deputy Receiver” and, together with MIC, TPG, the Creditors’ Committee and the Receiver, the “Parties”) with respect to certain issues that were in dispute among the Parties. On December 14, 2012, the Superior Court of the State of Arizona in and for the County of Maricopa, which is overseeing MIC’s receivership proceedings, issued an order approving the Stipulation.

Certain terms of the Stipulation are described below:

1. With respect to the approximately $2.2 billion in net operating loss carryforwards at issue among the Parties, MIC will pay TPG $20 million for the exclusive use of $1 billion of such net operating loss carryforwards and TPG will have the exclusive use of the remaining approximately $1.2 billion of net operating loss carryforwards. MIC will also have the right to direct the use of any net operating losses of MIC and its subsidiaries with respect to any taxable period ending after January 1, 2012. MIC and TPG will remain consolidated in the tax group.

2. TPG is in the process of voluntarily terminating its pension plan. It is expected that the underfunding of this plan upon termination would require a payment to the plan of approximately $15 million to $20 million. TPG will pay certain administrative fees and costs associated with the standard termination and MIC will pay the funding shortfall.

3. TPG has three reinsurance subsidiaries to which MIC and certain of its subsidiaries have ceded risk. Pursuant to the Stipulation, the reinsurance subsidiaries are to enter into commutation agreements pursuant to which all such ceded risk is to be commuted and outstanding intercompany amounts are to be settled. The commutation agreements require that the reinsurance subsidiaries make payments which total an aggregate of approximately $47.4 million to MIC and certain of its subsidiaries.

4. Both TPG and MIC have asserted an entitlement to the distribution on an allowed claim in the liquidation of Reliance Insurance Company in an approximate amount of $1.88 million. Under the Stipulation, TPG waives and transfers, in favor of MIC, its asserted claim to the distribution.

5. In connection with the sale in 2008 by MIC of its Australian operations to QBE Holdings (AAP) Pty Limited (“QBE”), both TPG and MIC have asserted an entitlement to a potential claim against QBE and/or QBE Insurance Group Limited in the approximate amount of $2.5 million. Under the Stipulation, MIC waives and transfers, in favor of TPG, its asserted claim to any recovery from QBE and/or QBE Insurance Group Limited with respect to that matter.

6. Under the Stipulation, the Parties provide a mutual waiver and release of any and all other claims, including the claims that MIC has filed against the TPG estate with the Bankruptcy Court, with certain exceptions specified in the Stipulation.

Effectiveness of the Stipulation is contingent on the satisfaction of a number of conditions. There can be no assurance that such conditions will be satisfied in a timely manner or at all or that the Stipulation will become effective.

Please refer to the Stipulation, a copy of which (without exhibits) is attached hereto and incorporated herein, for further information regarding the terms and conditions thereof.

5. Claims Filed by the Retirement Plans Administrative Committee. TPG may, but shall not be required to, object to the proofs of claim numbered 618 and 625 filed in the

11

Chapter 11 Case by The Retirement Plans Administrative Committee on behalf of The PMI Group, Inc. Savings and Profit-Sharing Plan and The PMI Group, Inc. Retirement Plan, respectively (together, the “Retirement Committee Proofs of Claim”); in the event such an objection is filed, the Defendants shall not oppose such claim objection (so long as it does not seek to impose, or could reasonably be expected to result in, any liability, obligation, or exposure upon or to the Defendants).

6. Claims Filed by PBGC. After the Effective Date, MIC will cooperate with TPG (if requested by TPG) on a commercially reasonable basis and to the extent consistent with applicable law (as reasonably determined by MIC) with respect to TPG’s efforts to obtain withdrawal or expungement, with prejudice, of proofs of claim numbered 722, 725, 727 and 739 filed in the Chapter 11 Case by the Pension Benefit Guaranty Corporation (collectively, the “PBGC Proofs of Claims”). TPG may, but shall not be required to, object to the PBGC Proofs of Claims; in the event an objection is filed, the Defendants shall not oppose such claim objection (so long as it does not seek to impose, or could reasonably be expected to result in, any liability, obligation, or exposure upon or to the Defendants that is inconsistent with the terms of this Stipulation or the Ancillary Agreements).

7. Form D. After the Effective Date, to the extent that TPG and/or certain of its subsidiaries or MIC and/or certain of its subsidiaries determine it is necessary to file a Form D with the ADOI in respect of any of the Ancillary Agreements, MIC and TPG will cooperate with one another, if requested, on a commercially reasonable basis and to the extent consistent with applicable law (as reasonably determined by the party whose cooperation is being requested) with respect to the filing of any such Form D so long as doing so does not seek to impose, or

12

could reasonably be expected to result in, any liability, obligation, or exposure upon or to the party whose cooperation is being requested.

8. Cost Allocation Agreement. The applicable Parties shall enter into the Second Amended and Restated Cost Allocation Agreement (the “Amended Cost Allocation Agreement”) substantially in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit A.

9. Standard Termination of Pension Plan.

MIC shall execute any and all documentation reasonably requested by TPG and/or QBE to effectuate the provisions of this paragraph, provide TPG with such documentation and information as may be reasonably requested by TPG in respect of the QBE Claim and/or provide such cooperation to TPG as may be reasonably requested by TPG in respect of the QBE Claim (in each case, at no cost or expense to MIC and so long as doing so does not seek to impose, or could reasonably be expected to result in, any liability, obligation or exposure upon or to any of the Defendants).

13. Reliance Claim. TPG hereby waives and transfers, in favor of MIC, any and all right, title, and interest in and to any distribution from the Reliance Estate with respect to the Reliance Claim. To the extent TPG (or any successor thereto) receives any distribution, or has received any distribution in calendar year 2012, in respect of the Reliance Claim, TPG shall promptly remit such distribution to MIC. TPG shall execute any and all documentation reasonably requested by MIC and/or the Reliance Estate to effectuate the provisions of this paragraph.

14. PMI Management Services, SA de CV. The Parties hereby agree that TPG may wind-down and dissolve PMI Management Services, SA de CV (“PMI Management”). In connection therewith, MIC agrees to (i) release any and all claims to or in PMI Management and

15

(ii) cooperate with TPG, if requested, on a commercially reasonable basis and to the extent consistent with applicable law (as reasonably determined by MIC) with respect to facilitating the wind-down and dissolution of PMI Management, including executing any documentation reasonably requested by TPG; and TPG agrees to (i) release MIC and the other Plaintiff Released Parties from any and all claims related to or arising in respect of PMI Management and (ii) pay any and all fees and costs associated with the wind-down and dissolution of PMI Management. For the avoidance of doubt, the releases described in this paragraph 14 are in addition to, and not in lieu of, any other releases granted in this Stipulation.

16. Good Faith Negotiation on Ancillary Issues. The Parties shall negotiate in good faith and use commercially reasonable efforts to reach prompt agreement concerning the issues identified (the “Ancillary Issues”) in the letter to be executed and delivered prior to Court approval of this Stipulation from Michael Bernstein to Joseph Barry and Anthony Princi (the “Ancillary Letter”), without resort to additional litigation; provided, however, it shall not be a condition to the Effective Date that any or all of the Ancillary Issues be resolved.
