Item 8.01. Other Events.

 

As previously announced, on February 25, 2019, 1347 Property Insurance Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”), together with Maison Insurance Company (“Maison”), Maison Managers, Inc. (“MMI”), and ClaimCor, LLC (“ClaimCor”), entered into an Equity Purchase Agreement with FedNat Holding Company (“FedNat”), a Florida corporation, providing for the sale of all of the issued and outstanding equity of Maison, MMI and ClaimCor to FedNat, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the agreement (the “Asset Sale”). The Company’s shareholders have approved the Asset Sale. Regulatory approvals by the Louisiana Department of Insurance and the Florida Office of Insurance Regulation for the Asset Sale are in the process of being finalized, and the Company anticipates receiving documentation evidencing such approval in the next few days. The regulatory approvals are contingent on compliance with the consent orders with the insurance regulators. The Company currently anticipates that the Asset Sale will close in December 2019.
