retirement from the Company, the Company entered into a Consulting Agreement
with Jeffrey C. Selby on March 24, 2008 with an effective date of April 2, 2008
through the end of 2008.&#160;&#160;Under the arrangement, Mr. Selby will serve

Agreement is attached as Exhibit 10.1 to this report and is incorporated by
reference into this Item&#160;5.02. He will also receive a subsequent payment in
March 2009 in consideration of his performance during the first quarter of 2008

working for any competitor of the Company engaged in the business of real estate

Retirement of Jeffrey
C.  Selby
The
Company previously announced that Jeffrey C. Selby, our President – Commercial
Services and an Executive Vice President of our subsidiaries Commonwealth
Land Title Insurance Company, Transnation Title Insurance Company and Lawyers
Title Insurance Corporation, gave us notice of his decision to retire from these
positions effective April 1, 2008. In anticipation of Mr. Selby's
retirement from the Company, the Company entered into a Consulting Agreement
with Jeffrey C. Selby on March 24, 2008 with an effective date of April 2, 2008
through the end of 2008.  Under the arrangement, Mr. Selby will serve
as an advisor to the Chairman and Chief Executive Officer on various matters
relating to the Company's business.  He will be paid at a rate of $375
per hour and will provide services to the Company for a minimum fifty hours per
month.  In addition, prior to his termination, Mr. Selby will receive
a payment of $78,795 on March 31, 2008 in consideration of his performance
during the first quarter of 2008.  The full text of the Consulting
Agreement is attached as Exhibit 10.1 to this report and is incorporated by
reference into this Item 5.02. He will also receive a subsequent payment in
March 2009 in consideration of his performance during the first quarter of 2008
guaranteed to be at least $154,039, conditioned on Mr. Selby's refraining from
working for any competitor of the Company engaged in the business of real estate
transaction services.  Otherwise, Mr. Selby will continue to receive
through his employment termination date the same salary payments and other
employee benefits which he currently receives or to which he is otherwise
entitled, in accordance with the terms of the applicable benefit plan, agreement
or program.
