We face risks other than those described in the aforementioned reports, including those that are unknown to us and others of which we may be aware but, at present, consider immaterial.

OUR COMPANY

This registration statement is being filed by CoreLogic, Inc., a Delaware corporation, as successor to The First American Corporation, a California corporation. In May 2010, the shareholders of The First American Corporation approved our reincorporation from California to Delaware pursuant to an agreement and plan of merger. In accordance with the agreement and plan of merger, The First American Corporation merged with and into CoreLogic, with CoreLogic continuing as the surviving corporation. All of the previously outstanding common shares of The First American Corporation were cancelled and each holder of such cancelled common shares received one share of the common stock, par value $0.00001 per share, of CoreLogic. CoreLogic’s shares of common stock have been approved for listing on The New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “CLGX”.

We are a Delaware corporation with executive offices located at 4 First American Way, Santa Ana, California 92707. Our telephone number is (714) 250-6400.

USE OF PROCEEDS

Unless otherwise specified in an applicable prospectus supplement accompanying this prospectus, the net proceeds from the sale of shares of our common stock to which this prospectus relates will be used for general corporate purposes. General corporate purposes may include repayment of indebtedness, acquisitions, additions to working capital, repurchases of shares of our common stock, capital expenditures and investments in our subsidiaries. We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of shares of our common stock by the selling stockholders.

Table of Contents

DESCRIPTION OF CAPITAL STOCK

The following is a description of the material provisions of our capital stock, as well as other material terms of our current certificate of incorporation and bylaws, copies of which have been filed as exhibits to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part.

Authorized Capitalization

As of the date of this prospectus, our authorized capital consists of 180,000,000 shares of our common stock, of which 116,939,278 are outstanding, and 500,000 shares of our preferred stock, of which none were outstanding, each class of shares having a $0.00001 par value. Each share of our common stock has the same relative rights and is identical in all respects with every other share of our common stock.

Common and Preferred Stock

Voting rights. Each stockholder is entitled to one vote for each share of our common stock. Stockholders are entitled to vote on all matters requiring stockholder approval under Delaware law and our amended and restated certificate of incorporation and bylaws, including the election of members of the board of directors. At each annual meeting of our stockholders, the entire board of directors is put up for election by the stockholders. The Delaware General Corporation Law (“DGCL”) provides that stockholders are denied the right to cumulate votes in the election of directors unless our amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides otherwise. Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation does not expressly address cumulative voting.

Dividend Rights. We pay dividends out of statutory surplus or from net profits if, as and when declared by our board of directors. If we issue shares of our preferred stock, the holders of the shares of our preferred stock may have a priority over the holders of the shares of our common stock with respect to dividends.

Liquidation Rights. If we are liquidated or dissolved, stockholders of common stock are entitled to receive all of our assets that remain after our debts and liabilities are paid. If we issue shares of our preferred stock, the holders of shares of our preferred stock may have a priority over the holders of shares of our common stock in the event of our liquidation or dissolution. As of the date of this prospectus, we have not issued any shares of our preferred stock.

Preemptive rights; redemption; nonassessability. Shares of our common stock have no preemptive rights. This means that our stockholders do not have a right to buy their proportional shares of any additional shares of our common stock we issue. There are no provisions for redemption, conversion rights, sinking funds, or liability for further calls or assessments on shares of our common stock. This means that we cannot ask you for more money for your shares of our common stock, we cannot force you to sell your shares of our common stock back to us (absent a separate agreement to do so) and your shares of our common stock cannot be exchanged for a different security. It also means that we do not set aside any money to buy your shares of our common stock from you.

Amendments to amended and restated certificate of incorporation or bylaws. Our board of directors has the power to adopt, amend or repeal our bylaws, except for the provision requiring directors to be elected by a majority of the votes cast at the annual meeting. The stockholders also may amend our bylaws, but the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority in voting power of the issued and outstanding stock entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, voting together as a single class, shall be required for the stockholders to amend or repeal, or adopt any provision inconsistent with, any provision of the bylaws.

Limitations on Liability and Indemnification of Officers and Directors. The DGCL authorizes corporations to limit or eliminate the personal liability of directors to corporations and their stockholders for monetary damages for breaches of directors’ fiduciary duties. Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation includes a provision that eliminates the personal liability of directors for monetary damages for breaches of fiduciary duty as a director.

Our bylaws provide for the indemnification by us of any person serving as a director, officer, employee or other agent to the fullest extent permissible under the DGCL. In addition, we have purchased a directors’ and officers’ insurance policy covering our officers and directors for liabilities that they may incur as a result of any action, or failure to act, in their capacity as officers and directors. We believe that these indemnification provisions and insurance are useful to attract and retain qualified directors and officers.

Table of Contents

Authorized but Unissued Stock. Our authorized but unissued shares of our common stock and our preferred stock will be available for future issuance without the approval of holders of common stock. We may use these additional shares of our common stock and our preferred stock for a variety of corporate purposes, including future offerings to raise additional capital, corporate acquisitions and employee benefit plans.

Anti-takeover provisions could adversely affect our stockholders.

Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation authorizes the issuance of “blank check” shares of our preferred stock with such designations, rights and preferences as may be determined from time to time by our board of directors. Accordingly, our board is empowered, without further stockholder action, to issue shares or series of our preferred stock with dividend, liquidation, conversion, voting or other rights that could adversely affect the voting power or other rights, including the ability to receive dividends, of our common stockholders. The issuance of such shares of our preferred stock could be utilized, under certain circumstances, as a method of discouraging, delaying or preventing a change in control.

Transfer Agent and Registrar

Wells Fargo Shareowner Services, a division of Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., serves as our stock transfer agent and registrar for shares of our common stock.

Listing

Shares of our common stock have been approved for listing on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbol “CLGX.”

SELLING STOCKHOLDERS

The shares of our common stock included in the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part may be offered and sold by any selling stockholders to be named in a prospectus supplement. We have registered these shares of our common stock to permit selling stockholders to resell their shares of our common stock when they deem appropriate. A selling stockholder may resell all, a portion or none of such stockholder’s shares of our common stock at any time and from time to time, so long as a prospectus supplement is available. Selling stockholders also may sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of some or all of their shares of our common stock in transactions exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act. We do not know when or in what amounts the selling stockholders may offer shares of our common stock for sale under this prospectus and any prospectus supplement. We will not receive any proceeds from any sale of shares of our common stock by a selling stockholder under this prospectus and any prospectus supplement. We may pay all expenses incurred with respect to the registration of the shares of our common stock owned by the selling stockholders, other than underwriting fees, discounts or commissions, which will be borne by the selling stockholders. We will provide you with a prospectus supplement naming the selling stockholders, the amount of shares of our common stock to be registered and sold and any other terms of the shares of our common stock being sold by each selling stockholder.

Item 15. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

Our amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides that, except to the extent prohibited by the DGCL, our directors shall not be liable to the registrant or their respective stockholders for monetary damages for any breach of fiduciary duty as directors of the registrant. Under the DGCL, the directors have a fiduciary duty to us, which is not eliminated by these provisions of the amended and restated certificate of incorporation and, in appropriate circumstances, equitable remedies such as injunctive or other forms of nonmonetary relief will remain available. This provision does not affect the directors’ responsibilities under any other laws, such as the Federal securities laws or state or Federal environmental laws.

Section 145 of the DGCL empowers a corporation to indemnify its directors and officers and to purchase insurance with respect to liability arising out of their capacity or status as directors and officers. The DGCL provides further that the indemnification permitted thereunder shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which the directors and officers may be entitled under the corporation’s bylaws, any agreement, a vote of stockholders or otherwise. Our bylaws provide that we shall indemnify and hold harmless, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, as may be amended, any person who was or is made or is threatened to be made a party or is otherwise involved in any action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (a “proceeding”) by reason of the fact that he, or a person for whom he is the legal representative, is or was one of our directors or officers or is or was serving at our request as a director, officer, employee or agent of another registrant or of a partnership, joint venture, trust, enterprise or nonprofit entity, including service with respect to employee benefit plans, against all liability and loss suffered and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by such person.

At present, there is no pending litigation or proceeding involving any director, officer, employee or agent as to which indemnification will be required or permitted under our bylaws. We are not aware of any threatened litigation or proceeding that may result in a claim for such indemnification.

CoreLogic’s 1996 Stock Option Plan, 1997 Directors’ Stock Plan, 2006 Incentive Compensation Plan, 401(k) Savings Plan, Employee Stock Purchase Plan, Pension Restoration Plan and First Advantage Corporation 2003 Incentive Compensation Plan (for purposes of this paragraph only, each individually, the “Plan”) each provide that, subject to certain conditions, CoreLogic may, through the purchase of insurance or otherwise, indemnify each member of the Board (or board of directors of any affiliate), each member of the committee charged with administering the Plan, and any other employees to whom any responsibility with respect to the Plan is allocated or delegated, from and against any and all claims, losses, damages, and expenses, including attorneys’ fees, and any liability, including any amounts paid in settlement with CoreLogic’s approval, arising from the individual’s action or failure to act, except when the same is judicially determined to be attributable to the gross negligence or willful misconduct of such person.

Each of CoreLogic’s Amended and Restated Executive Supplemental Benefit Plan, Amended and Restated Management Supplemental Benefit Plan, Amended and Restated Deferred Compensation Plan and Amended and Restated Pension Restoration Plan (for purposes of this paragraph only, each individually, the “Plan”) provides that,

 

II-1


Table of Contents

subject to certain conditions, CoreLogic shall indemnify and hold harmless the committee charged with administering the Plan, and each employee, former employee, current and former member of the committee, and current and former member of the board of directors who has or had responsibility for a fiduciary duty, a non-fiduciary settlor function or a non-fiduciary administrative task relating to the Plan, against any and all claims, losses, damages, and expenses, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and court costs as well as amounts due under a settlement of any lawsuit or investigation (only if CoreLogic agrees to such settlement), incurred by the person on account of such individual’s good faith actions or failures to act with respect to such individual’s responsibilities under the Plan, unless such action or failure to act is judicially determined to constitute or be attributable to the gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of such individual. In addition, the committee charged with administering the Plan may authorize the purchase of insurance to cover any liabilities or losses occurring by reason of the act or omission of any committee member or its designee (or, in the case of the Amended and Restated Pension Restoration Plan only, a CoreLogic employee), and, to the extent permitted by law, the committee also may purchase insurance covering any committee member or its designee for any personal liability of such committee member or designee with respect to administrative responsibilities under the Plan.

CoreLogic’s 2006 Incentive Compensation Plan (for purposes of this paragraph only, the “Plan”) provides that, subject to certain conditions, each member of the Board of Directors, each member of the committee designated to administer the Plan, and any officer to whom any responsibility with respect to the Plan is delegated, shall be indemnified and held harmless by CoreLogic against and from any loss, cost, liability or expense that may be imposed upon or reasonably incurred by such individual, including amounts due under a settlement (with CoreLogic’s approval) or in satisfaction of any judgment in any action against such individual, in connection with or resulting from the individual’s action or failure to act under the Plan, unless the same is a result of the individual’s own willful misconduct or except as provided by statute.

CoreLogic has a policy of liability insurance that insures its directors and officers against the cost of defense, settlement or payment of a judgment under certain circumstances.

 

Item 16. Exhibits and Financial Statement Schedules.

A list of exhibits filed with the registration statement on Form S-3 is set forth in the Exhibit Index, and such exhibits are incorporated into this Item 16 by reference.

 

Item 17. Undertakings.

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

(1)        To file, during the 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. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective 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 (1)(i), (1)(ii) and (1)(iii) do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the SEC by the registrant pursuant to Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement or is contained in a form prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) that is part of the registration statement.

(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.

 

II-2


Table of Contents

(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.

(4)        That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser:

(i)        Each prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(3) shall be deemed to be part of the registration statement as of the date the filed prospectus was deemed part of and included in the registration statement; and

(ii)        Each prospectus required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424(b)(2), (b)(5), or (b)(7) as part of a registration statement in reliance on Rule 430B relating to an offering made pursuant to Rule 415(a)(1)(i), (vii), or (x) for the purpose of providing the information required by section 10(a) of the Securities Act of 1933 shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the earlier of the date such form of prospectus is first used after effectiveness or the date of the first contract of sale of securities in the offering described in the prospectus. As provided in Rule 430B, for liability purposes of the issuer and any person that is at that date an underwriter, such date shall be deemed to be a new effective date of the registration statement relating to the securities in the registration statement to which that prospectus relates, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such effective date, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such effective date.

(5)        That, for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities:

The undersigned registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:

(i)        Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;

(ii)        Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant;

(iii)        The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and

(iv)        Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser.

(6)        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 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to 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.

(7)        Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act 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 SEC such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities 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 Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
