Item 4.01.   Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.
     Donegal Mutual Insurance Company 401(k) Plan (the “Plan”) reports that BDO Seidman, LLP (“BDO”), the independent auditors for the Plan’s statements of net assets available for benefits of the Plan as of December 31, 2004 and the related statements of changes in net assets available for benefits for the year then ended (the “Plan’s 2004 Financial Statements”), was terminated as the Plan’s independent auditors as of April 14, 2006. BDO’s report on the Plan’s 2004 Financial Statements did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion and was not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope or accounting principles. During the Plan’s most recent fiscal year and subsequent interim period preceding BDO’s termination, there were no disagreements with the Plan regarding any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure or auditing scope or procedure.
     On April 14, 2006, the Plan engaged Beard Miller Company LLP (“Beard”), as the principal accountant to audit the Plan’s financial statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2005. The Plan did not consult with Beard regarding the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Plan’s financial statements or any matter that was either a subject of a disagreement or a reportable event as described in Item 304 of Regulation S-K.
