On October 13, 2022, the Company purchased the 50% ownership interest in Venture that was owned by a third party  for $9.7 million, resulting in Venture being owned 100% by the Company.  

On October 14, 2022, Venture completed the sale of certain producer business assets with Whitetail Insurance Services, LLC (the “Buyer”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Acrisure, LLC (“Acrisure”), for a purchase price of $38.2 million.  The effective date of the asset purchase agreement is October 1, 2022.  There is no material relationship between the Company or any director or officer of the Company, or any associate of any director or officer of the Company, and the Buyer, other than with respect to the Company's disposition of assets to the Buyer.  The assets involved in this transaction relate to Venture Agency Holdings, Inc. insurance brokerage and associated services provided largely to the security sector.  This sale, along with related transactions including the cost of the Company purchasing the other 50% of Venture, is expected to generate approximately $8.0 million of non-operating gains for the Company, net of taxes, in the fourth quarter of 2022.  This sale is not expected to result in discontinued operations related to agency business.
