Item 1.01

Completion of Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

On July 1, 2020, American National Insurance Company, a Texas insurance company (“ANICO”), completed its previously announced holding company reorganization pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated February 11, 2020 (the “Reorganization Agreement”), among ANICO, American National Group, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“ANG”), and AN MergerCo, Inc., a Texas corporation (“MergerCo”). The Reorganization Agreement provided for the merger of ANICO with and into MergerCo (the “Merger”), with ANICO surviving the Merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of ANG, and the automatic conversion of each share of the common stock, par value $1.00 per share, of ANICO issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Merger (“ANICO Stock”), into one duly issued, fully paid and non-assessable share of the common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of ANG (“ANG Stock”) (collectively with the other transactions contemplated by the Reorganization Agreement, the “Reorganization”). In addition, each stock appreciation right, restricted stock unit and other incentive award relating to shares of ANICO Stock automatically converted into a stock appreciation right, restricted stock unit or other incentive award relating to an identical number of shares of ANG Stock and governed by the same terms and conditions. As a result of the Reorganization, ANG replaced ANICO as the publicly held company. The Reorganization was approved by the stockholders of ANICO at its Annual Meeting of Stockholders on April 23, 2020.

The foregoing description of the Reorganization is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Reorganization Agreement, which is filed as Exhibit 2.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, and is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 3.01

Notice of Delisting or Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule or Standard; Transfer of Listing.

The information set forth in Item 1.01 with respect to the Reorganization is incorporated by reference in this Item 3.01.

In connection with the completion of the Reorganization, on June 15, 2020, ANICO notified the NASDAQ Stock Market (“NASDAQ”) that each issued and outstanding share of ANICO Stock would be converted into one share of ANG Stock, and ANICO requested that NASDAQ suspend trading of ANICO Stock and commence trading of ANG Stock, as of the open of business on July 2, 2020. As of the open of business on July 2, 2020, NASDAQ suspended trading of ANICO Stock, and shares of ANG Stock commenced trading on the NASDAQ under the symbol “ANAT”, which was the symbol used by ANICO prior to the Reorganization.

Item 3.03.

Material Modification to Rights of Security Holders.

The information set forth in Item 1.01 with respect to the Reorganization is incorporated by reference in this Item 3.03.

As a result of the Reorganization, stockholders of ANICO became stockholders of ANG, and the rights of such stockholders are now defined by the Delaware General Corporation Law, the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of ANG (the “Certificate of Incorporation”) and the Amended and Restated Bylaws of ANG (the “Bylaws”). A description of the comparative rights of the holders of ANG Stock and the holders of ANICO Stock is included in the “Proposal 2. Reorganization” section of the definitive joint proxy statement/prospectus of ANG and ANICO (the “Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus”), filed by ANICO with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 25, 2020, which description is incorporated by reference herein. Such description is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws of ANG, which are attached as Annex II and Annex III to the Joint Proxy Statement/Prospectus.
