Item 1.02 Termination of Material Definitive Agreement
On November 19, 2012, we entered into a warrant purchase agreement with the bankruptcy trustee of Glencoe Acquisition, Inc. to purchase from Glencoe Acquisition, Inc. 1,000,000 of our own warrants for $4,000,000. Two warrants entitle the holder to purchase one share of our common stock for $9.10 per share. We issued the warrants in private placement to Glencoe Acquisition, Inc. in connection with our acquisition of policies from HomeWise Insurance Company in 2011. That warrant purchase agreement was terminated November 29, 2012, when the trustee accepted a contract from another offeror. We anticipate prompt return of our deposit of $500,000.
