Item 6. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
 
Pursuant to the Wisconsin Business Corporation Law and the Company’s Amended and Restated Bylaws, directors and officers of the Company are entitled to mandatory indemnification from the Company against certain liabilities and expenses (1) to the extent such officers or directors are successful in the defense of a proceeding and (2) in proceedings in which the director or officer is not successful in defense thereof unless (in the latter case only) it is determined that the director or officer breached or failed to perform his or her duties to the Company and such breach or failure constituted: (a) a willful failure to deal fairly with the Company or its shareholders in connection with a matter in which the director or officer had a material conflict of interest; (b) a violation of the criminal law, unless the director or officer had reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was lawful or had no reasonable cause to believe his or her conduct was unlawful; (c) a transaction from which the director or officer derived an improper personal profit; or (d) willful misconduct. The Wisconsin Business Corporation Law specifically states that it is the public policy of Wisconsin to require or permit indemnification, allowance of expenses and insurance in connection with a proceeding involving securities regulation, as described therein, to the extent required or permitted as described above. Additionally, under the Wisconsin Business Corporation Law, directors of the Company are not subject to personal liability to the Company, its shareholders or any person asserting rights on behalf thereof for certain breaches or failures to perform any duty resulting solely from their status as directors except in circumstances paralleling those in subparagraphs (a) through (d) outlined above.
 
Expenses for the defense of any action for which indemnification may be available may be advanced by the Company under certain circumstances.

The indemnification provided by the Wisconsin Business Corporation Law and the Company’s Amended and Restated Bylaws is not exclusive of any other rights to which a director or officer may be entitled. The Company also maintains a liability insurance policy for its directors and officers as permitted by Wisconsin law which may extend to, among other things, liability arising under the Securities Act of 1933.
 
Item 7. Exemption from Registration Claimed.
 
Not applicable.
 
Item 8. Exhibits.
 
 The exhibits filed herewith or incorporated herein by reference are set forth in the attached Exhibit Index.
 
Item 9. Undertakings.
 
(a)
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:
 
 
(1)
To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:
 
 
(i)
To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;
 
 
(ii)
To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement; and
 
 
(iii)
To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement; provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement.
 
 
3

 
 
 
(2)
That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
 
 
(3)
To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
 
(b)
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof
 
(c)
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

MGIC Investment Corporation
250 East Kilbourn Avenue
Milwaukee, WI  53202

Gentlemen:

I am Executive Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary of MGIC Investment Corporation, a Wisconsin corporation (the “Company”).  In that capacity, I have acted as counsel to the Company in connection with the preparation of a Registration Statement on Form S-8 (“Registration Statement”) relating to the Company’s 2011 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), and the registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“Act”), of (i) 1,000,000 shares (“Shares”) of the Company’s Common Stock, $1.00 par value per share (the “Common Stock”) and (ii) related Common Share Purchase Rights (the “Rights”) which may be issued under the Plan, in the manner set forth in the Registration Statement.  The terms of the Rights are set forth in that certain Amended and Restated Rights Agreement, dated July 7, 2009, by and between the Company and Wells Fargo Bank National Association, as amended by an Amendment to Rights Agreement dated as of December 29, 2009 (the “Rights Agreement”).  In connection therewith, I have examined:  (i) the Registration Statement, (ii) the Rights Agreement; (iii) the Company’s Articles of Incorporation, as amended, and Amended and Restated Bylaws; (iv) corporate proceedings of the Company relating to the authorization for issuance of the Shares and Rights; and (v) such other proceedings, documents and records as I have deemed necessary to enable me to render this opinion.

Based upon the foregoing, I am of the opinion that:

1.
The Shares subject to the Registration Statement, when issued and paid for in the manner set forth in the Plan will be legally issued, fully paid and nonassessable. With respect to the foregoing opinion, at one time Section 180.0622(2)(b) of the Wisconsin Business Corporation Law imposed personal liability upon shareholders for debts owing to employees of the Company for services performed, but not exceeding six months’ service in any one case.  This statutory provision was repealed by 2005 Wisconsin Act 474, which provided that the repeal applies to debts incurred on or after June 14, 2006.

2.
The Rights subject to the Registration Statement, when issued pursuant to the terms of the Rights Agreement, will be validly issued.

I consent to the use of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration Statement and to the reference of my name therein.  In giving my consent, I do not admit that I am an “expert” within the meaning of Section 11 of the Act or within the category of persons whose consent is required by Section 7 of the Act.
 
Very truly yours,  
   
/s/ Jeffrey H. Lane
