Item 8.01 Other Events.

Due to an error in information received by Direct General Corporation, the section entitled “Stock Performance Chart” on page 13 of our proxy statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 15, 2006 (“Proxy Statement”) contains inaccurate information. In that section, the stock performance chart and total return analysis overstated the cumulative total return on the S&P 500 Property and Casualty Insurance Index and the S&P 500 index as of December 31, 2004 and December 31, 2005. Attached as Exhibit 99 is the corrected “Stock Performance Chart” section of our Proxy Statement, reprinted in its entirety. The corrected information in Exhibit 99 supersedes and replaces the “Stock Performance Chart” section of our Proxy Statement and is incorporated by reference herein. The stock performance chart and total return analysis information in Exhibit 99 were provided by CTA Public Relations.
