Item 8.01. Other Events
On December 12, 2005, the Company filed under Item 8.01 to inform interested parties that the United States District court for the Middle District of Alabama (the Court) entered an order preliminarily approving a proposed settlement of a case pending against a subsidiary of The National Security Group, Inc. (the Company) styled Mary W. Williams, et al v. National Security Insurance Company (Williams Litigation) and preliminarily certifying such case as a class action. The proposed settlement was subject to final approval by the Court following a fairness hearing. On August 31, 2006, the Company received notification that final approval has been issued by the Court. There are no material changes to report in this long standing litigation other than the receipt of final approval by the court. Now that final approval has been received, the Company will begin the final stage of the settlement administration process which is expected to be completed by the end of the year 2006.
