INTRODUCTION

This Amendment No. 5 amends and supplements the Rule 13e-3 Transaction Statement on Schedule 13E-3 (the "Schedule 13E-3") that was filed by Independence Holding Company, a Delaware corporation ("IHC"), Madison Investors Corporation, a Delaware corporation ("Madison"), and AMIC Holdings, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("Acquisition Co."), with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission") on June 28, 2016, and amended on each of July 25, 2016, July 28, 2016, July 29, 2016 and August 2, 2016, with respect to the merger (the "Merger") of American Independence Corp., a Delaware corporation ("AMIC"), with and into Acquisition Co., with Acquisition Co. continuing as the surviving corporation under the name "AMIC Holdings, Inc." (the "Surviving Corporation"). This Amendment No. 5 is a final amendment reporting the results of the transaction. All information set forth in this Amendment No. 5 should be read in conjunction with the information contained or incorporated by reference in the Schedule 13E-3, as amended to date.

RESULTS OF THE TRANSACTION

On August 4, 2016, IHC, MIC and AMIC Holdings caused the Schedule 13E-3, as amended, to be mailed to AMIC's stockholders (the "Mailing").  Immediately prior to the Mailing, on August 3, 2016, in accordance with the terms of that certain Contribution Agreement dated as of August 3, 2016 by and among IHC, MIC and AMIC Holdings, IHC and MIC contributed all of their respective shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share ("Common Stock"), of AMIC to AMIC Holdings, resulting in AMIC Holdings owning an aggregate of 91.43% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock. In exchange, IHC and MIC received, in the aggregate, 100% of the shares of common stock of AMIC Holdings.

Effective 12:01 a.m. on August 31, 2016 (the "Effective Time"), the Merger was consummated pursuant to a Certificate of Ownership and Merger filed by Acquisition Co. with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware. Prior to the Effective Time, Acquisition Co.'s board of directors adopted resolutions approving the Merger. Because Acquisition Co. owned more than 90% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock immediately prior to the Effective Time, no action by AMIC's stockholders (other than Acquisition Co.) was required for the Merger to become effective under applicable Delaware law. As a result of the Merger, IHC and Madison own 100% of the capital stock of the Surviving Corporation.

Pursuant to the terms of the Merger, each share of Common Stock outstanding prior to the Effective Time, other than shares of Common Stock owned by Acquisition Co., shares of treasury stock of AMIC and shares of Common Stock owned by stockholders of AMIC who properly exercised statutory appraisal rights under applicable Delaware law, was converted into the right to be paid $24.74 in cash by Acquisition Co. upon the surrender of such share.  Each share of Common Stock owned by Acquisition Co. and treasury stock of AMIC was cancelled. Immediately prior to the Effective Time, there were 695,400 shares of Common Stock owned by stockholders other than Acquisition Co.

Each option (whether vested or unvested) for the purchase of Common Stock outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time was converted into the right to be paid in cash by Acquisition Co. upon the surrender of such option, the difference between (a) $24.74 multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock for which such option could have been exercised immediately before the Merger, and (b) the total amount that the owner of such option would have had to pay to fully exercise such option immediately before the Merger.

In addition, on August 31, 2016, the Surviving Corporation notified the NASDAQ Stock Market LLC ("NASDAQ") of the effectiveness of the Merger and requested that NASDAQ suspend trading of the Common Stock and file with the Commission a notification of removal from listing on Form 25 to deregister the Common Stock under Section 12(b) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"). The Surviving Corporation intends to file a Form 15 to suspend its reporting obligations under Sections 13(a) and 15(d) of the Exchange Act on September 12, 2016.
