Effective November 9, 2016, as a result of its annual review of corporate governance documents and policies, the Board of Directors of Radian Group Inc. (the “Company”) approved an amendment to Section 4.13(e)(B) of the Company’s Amended and Restated Bylaws (“ByLaws”) to modify the required disclosure to the Company to cover arrangements relating to payment by a third party to a nominee for election or reelection to the Company’s Board of Directors.  Specifically, in relevant part, Section 4.13(e)(B) was amended to include the underlined language providing that a nominee for election or reelection as a director “…is not and will not become a party to any agreement, arrangement or understanding with any person or entity other than the corporation with respect to any direct or indirect compensation, reimbursement or indemnification or other payment in connection with such person’s candidacy as a director nominee or service or action as a director that has not been disclosed to the company….”

A copy of the Company’s Bylaws, as amended and restated on November 9, 2016, is filed as Exhibit 3.1 and is incorporated by reference in this Current Report on Form 8-K.
