      if the executive officer terminates his or her employment for good reason within
      such three-year period or voluntarily during the 30-day period following the

      benefits, including continuation of employee welfare benefits or payments in
      lieu of continuation&#160;and additional payments to compensate the executive
      officer for certain excise taxes imposed on certain change of control
      payments.&#160;&#160;For the Company&#8217;s principal executive officer and principal
      financial officer and other named executive officers, the severance payment
      multiple is three times annual base salary and highest annual bonus, although
      the severance payment multiple in each instance may be lower if the executive
      has voluntarily terminated employment during the 30-day period following the
      first anniversary of the change of control.&#160;&#160;All benefits payable to
      the executives under the Agreements are subject to the limitations set forth

Change
      of Control Employment Agreements with Named Executive Officers
On
      January 1, 2008, LandAmerica Financial Group, Inc. (the "Company") entered into
      revised Change of Control Employment Agreements (the "Agreements") with the
      Company's principal executive officer, principal financial officer and other
      named executive officers, which agreements expressly supersede the terms of
      any
      prior Change of Control Employment Agreements between such named executive
      officers and the Company.
The
      Agreements generally provide that if an executive officer is terminated other
      than for cause within three years after a change of control of the Company,
      or
      if the executive officer terminates his or her employment for good reason within
      such three-year period or voluntarily during the 30-day period following the
      first anniversary of the change of control, the executive officer is entitled
      to
      receive certain severance benefits.  Severance benefits include a lump
      sum severance payment equal to a multiple of the sum of the executive officer's
      base salary and highest annual bonus, together with certain other payments
      and
      benefits, including continuation of employee welfare benefits or payments in
      lieu of continuation and additional payments to compensate the executive
      officer for certain excise taxes imposed on certain change of control
      payments.  For the Company's principal executive officer and principal
      financial officer and other named executive officers, the severance payment
      multiple is three times annual base salary and highest annual bonus, although
      the severance payment multiple in each instance may be lower if the executive
      has voluntarily terminated employment during the 30-day period following the
      first anniversary of the change of control.  All benefits payable to
      the executives under the Agreements are subject to the limitations set forth
      in
      Section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.
The
      full
      text of the revised form of Change of Control Employment Agreement is attached
      as Exhibit 10.1 to this report and is incorporated by reference into this
      Item 5.02.
