Not
Applicable. Reporting person is filing this Schedule 13G
pursuant to 240.13d-2(b).
The reporting person originally
filed a Schedule 13G pursuant to 240.13d-1(c) and (d) as a result of the
acquisition of shares of ProAssurance Corporation pursuant to a
registration statement on Form S-4 filed by ProAssurance Corporation to
register the shares issued on June 27, 2001 pursuant to the Agreement to
Consolidate dated June 22, 2000, between Medical Assurance, Inc and
Professionals Group, Inc.
This report is the first update
filed by the reporting person on Schedule 13G since the initial filing
with the SEC on July 9, 2001, and reports the
beneficial stock ownership of the reporting person in ProAssurance
Corporation as of December 31, 2008. The reporting person
served as CEO and a director of ProAssurance Corporation from June 27, 2001 until he resigned as CEO on June
30, 2007 and as a director on
September 10,
2008.
During
that time the reporting person timely reported all changes in his stock
ownership in reports on Form 4 filed by the reporting person with the SEC
and ProAssurance Corporation reported his stock ownership as a director
and officer in its annual reports on Form 10-K and proxy statements filed
with the SEC each year during such period. The reporting person
failed to file the updates to the Schedule 13G during this period due to
an oversight in the reporting requirements for the stock ownership of the
reporting person.
