Item 8.01. Other Events

Acquisition of Beta Capital Corp.

On June 1, 2018, Security National Financial Corporation (the "Company") completed a stock purchase transaction with Beta Capital Corp. ("Beta Capital") and Ronald D. Maxson ("Maxson"), the sole owner of all the outstanding shares of common stock of Beta Capital, to purchase all of the outstanding shares of common stock of Beta Capital. Beta Capital is engaged in the operation of a factoring business with the principal purpose of providing funding for funeral homes and mortuaries. For the year ended December 31, 2017, Beta Capital had revenues of $1,208,000 with a net pre-tax income of $204,000. As of December 31, 2017, the total assets of Beta Capital were $3,270,000 and total equity was $1,832,000.

Under the terms of the transaction, as set forth in the Stock Purchase Agreement dated June 1, 2018 (the "Purchase Agreement"), by and among the Company, Beta Capital and Maxson, the Company paid Maxson the purchase consideration at the closing of the transaction equal to the sum of (i) $890,000 in cash plus (ii) the accounts receivable value of $2,515,783, representing the total amount of the Company's outstanding receivables as of the closing date of June 1, 2018, for a total closing payment of $3,405,783. From the $3,405,783 closing payment, a holdback amount equal to $175,000 was deposited into an interest bearing escrow account to be held for a period of eighteen months from the closing date to pay off any uncollected accounts receivable and other liabilities of Beta Capital as of the closing date.

In addition to the escrow amount, prior to closing Maxson estimated the amount of outstanding, accrued or unpaid liabilities and indebtedness owed by Beta Capital as of the closing date, including but not limited to salaries, commissions, employment taxes, and accounts payable (the "Trailing Liabilities") and left a cash balance in the Company's checking account at closing in the amount of at least 200% of such estimate (the "Cash Amount"). Sixty days after closing, Beta Capital is required to provide Maxson with an accounting of all post-closing payments by Beta Capital of the Trailing Liabilities from the Cash Amount and transfer the remaining balance of the Cash Amount to Maxson. In the event the Cash Amount is insufficient to pay the entire amount of the Trailing Liabilities, Maxson is required to reimburse the Company until the Company has been reimbursed in full for the total amount of the Trailing Liabilities.

Moreover, during the 18-month period from the closing date, the Company shall cause Beta Capital to use commercially reasonable efforts to collect all outstanding accounts receivable as of the closing date. Within 15 days after expiration of the 18-month period following the closing date, the Company shall provide written notice to Maxson of the amounts of the outstanding accounts receivables that had not been collected in full by the Company during the 18-month period. Maxson shall then be required to reimburse the Company for such uncollected accounts receivable. These payments shall be made by Maxson to the Company from the escrow funds then held in the escrow account. The balance of funds, if any, in the escrow account after disbursement of the uncollected accounts receivable payment to the Company shall be paid to Maxson by the escrow agent.

Also at closing, the Company and Beta Capital entered into a non-competition and confidentiality agreement with Maxson. Further at closing, the Company and Beta Capital entered into a lease agreement with Maxson for the use of the office space currently occupied by Beta Capital in Portsmouth, Virginia. The lease is for a period of two years payable in the amount of $3,000 per month.

If an Indemnified Party receives any amounts under applicable insurance policies, or from any other Person alleged to be responsible for any Losses, subsequent to an indemnification payment by the Indemnifying Party, then such Indemnified Party shall promptly reimburse the Indemnifying Party for any payment made or expense incurred by such Indemnifying Party in connection with providing such indemnification payment up to the amount received by the Indemnified Party, net of reasonable attorneys' fees, out-of-pocket expenses, deductibles and other costs of recovery.

(e) The amount of any Losses incurred by any Indemnified Party shall be reduced by an amount equal to any income Tax benefit actually realized by such Indemnified Party resulting from the incurrence or payment of such Losses, determined after taking into account any income Tax detriment of any indemnification payments made or to be made in connection with such Losses, but only to the extent that any such reduction does not prevent Indemnified Party from recovering the full amount of Losses determined on an after Tax basis.

(f) Notwithstanding anything in this Article VI, no Indemnified Party or its successors or assigns shall have any right or entitlement to indemnification from an Indemnifying Party for any Losses to the extent that such Indemnified Party or its successors and assigns had already recovered such Losses with respect to the same matter pursuant to any other provision of this Agreement, and such Indemnified Party shall be deemed to have waived and released any claims for such Losses to the extent already recovered hereunder by such Indemnified Party and shall not be entitled to assert any such claim for indemnification for such Losses.

(g) In no event shall any Person be entitled to recover or make a claim for any amounts in respect of, and in no event shall "Losses" be deemed to include indirect, expectation, incidental, special or consequential damages, lost profits or revenues, business interruption, exemplary or punitive damages or diminution in value and, in particular and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, no "multiple of earnings" or "multiple of cash flow" or similar valuation methodology shall be used in calculating the amount of any Losses.

(h) In the event Buyer proceeds with the Closing notwithstanding Buyer's knowledge at or prior to the Closing of any breach by Seller of any representation, warranty, agreement or covenant contained in this Agreement, no Buyer Indemnified Party shall have any claim or recourse against Seller with respect to such breach under this Article VI or otherwise.

6.5

Manner of Payment. Any Losses for which Seller is obligated to indemnify any Buyer Indemnified Party shall first be paid to such Buyer Indemnified Party from any available amount of the Escrow Amount, until the Escrow Amount has been reduced to zero or fully disbursed. No Buyer Indemnified Party shall be entitled to seek indemnification from Seller unless and until the Escrow Amount has been reduced to zero or fully disbursed.

6.6	Third-Party Claims.

(a) If a third party makes, initiates or commences any claim, lawsuit or arbitration (a "Third-Party Claim") against an Indemnified Party with respect to any matter that the Indemnified Party might make a claim for indemnification against any Indemnifying Party under this Article VI, then the Indemnified Party must notify the Indemnifying Party thereof in writing of the existence of such Third-Party Claim and must deliver copies of any documents provided or delivered to, or served on the Indemnified Party with respect to the Third-Party Claim; provided, however, that any failure to notify the Indemnifying Party or deliver copies will not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any obligation hereunder unless (and then solely to the extent) the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such failure.

(b) The Indemnifying Party shall have the right, at its sole option and expense, to be represented by counsel of its choice and to defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise deal with any Third-Party Claim which relates to any Losses indemnified against hereunder. If the Indemnifying Party elects to defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise deal with any Third-Party Claim which relates to any Losses indemnified against hereunder, it shall within thirty (30) days (or sooner, if the nature of the Third-Party Claim so requires) notify the Indemnifying Party of its intent to do so. If the Indemnifying Party elects not to defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise deal with any Third-Party Claim which relates to any Losses indemnified against hereunder, the Indemnified Party may defend against, negotiate, settle or otherwise deal with such Third-Party Claim. If the Indemnifying Party shall assume the defense of any Third-Party Claim, the Indemnified Party may participate, at its own expense, in the defense of such Third-Party Claim; provided, however, that such Indemnified Party shall be entitled to participate in any such defense with separate counsel at the expense of the Indemnifying Party only if (i) so requested by the Indemnifying Party to participate or (ii) in the reasonable written opinion of counsel to the Indemnified Party, a conflict or potential conflict exists between the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party that would make such separate representation advisable; and provided, further, that the Indemnifying Party shall not be required to pay for more than one such counsel for all Indemnified Parties in connection with any Third-Party Claim. The Parties hereto agree to cooperate fully with each other in connection with the defense, negotiation or settlement of any such Third-Party Claim.

(c) Notwithstanding anything in this Section 6.6 to the contrary, neither the Indemnifying Party nor the Indemnified Party shall, without the written consent of the other party, settle or compromise any Third-Party Claim or permit a default or consent to entry of any judgment unless the claimant and such party provide to such other party an unqualified release from all liability in respect of the Third-Party Claim. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a settlement offer solely for money damages is made by the applicable third party claimant, and the Indemnifying Party notifies the Indemnified Party in writing of the Indemnifying Party's willingness to accept the settlement offer and, subject to the applicable limitations of this Article VI, pay the amount called for by such offer, and the Indemnified Party declines to accept such offer, the Indemnified Party may continue to contest such Third-Party Claim, free of any participation by the Indemnifying Party, and the amount of any ultimate liability with respect to such Third-Party Claim that the Indemnifying Party has an obligation to pay hereunder shall be limited to the lesser of (A) the amount of the settlement offer that the Indemnified Party declined to accept plus the Losses of the Indemnified Party relating to such Third-Party Claim through the date of its rejection of the settlement offer or (B) the aggregate Losses of the Indemnified Party with respect to such Third-Party Claim. If the Indemnifying Party makes any payment on any Third-Party Claim, the Indemnifying Party shall be subrogated, to the extent of such payment, to all rights and remedies of the Indemnified Party to any insurance benefits or other claims of the Indemnified Party with respect to such Third-Party Claim.

(d) After any final decision, judgment or award shall have been rendered by a Governmental Body of competent jurisdiction and the expiration of the time in which to appeal therefrom, or a settlement shall have been consummated, or the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party shall have arrived at a mutually binding agreement with respect to a Third-Party Claim hereunder, the Indemnified Party shall forward to the Indemnifying Party notice of any sums due and owing by the Indemnifying Party pursuant to this Agreement with respect to such matter.

6.7

Direct Claims. Any claim by an Indemnified Party on account of a Loss which does not result from a Third-Party Claim (a "Direct Claim") shall be asserted by the Indemnified Party giving the Indemnifying Party prompt written notice thereof; provided, however, that any failure to notify the Indemnifying Party will not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any obligation hereunder unless (and then solely to the extent) the Indemnifying Party is materially prejudiced by such failure. Such notice by the Indemnified Party shall describe the Direct Claim in reasonable detail, shall include copies of all written evidence thereof and shall indicate the estimated amount, if reasonably practicable, of the Loss that has been sustained by the Indemnified Party. The Indemnifying Party shall have thirty (30) days after its receipt of such notice to respond in writing to such Direct Claim. During such thirty (30) day period, the Indemnified Party shall allow the Indemnifying Party and its Representatives to investigate the matter or circumstance alleged to give rise to the Direct Claim, and whether and to what extent any amount is payable in respect of the Direct Claim and the Indemnified Party shall assist the Indemnifying Party's investigation by giving such information and assistance (including access to Buyer's premises and personnel and the right to examine and copy any accounts, documents or records) as the Indemnifying Party or any of its Representatives may reasonably request. If the Indemnifying Party does not so respond within such thirty (30)-day period, the Indemnifying Party shall be deemed to have rejected such claim, in which case the Indemnified Party shall be free to pursue such remedies as may be available to the Indemnified Party on the terms and subject to the provisions of this Agreement.

6.8

Exclusive Remedy. From and after the Closing, indemnification pursuant to the provisions of this Article VI shall be the sole and exclusive remedy for any breach of this Agreement or otherwise relating to the subject matter of this Agreement and the Transactions. The limitations in this Section 6.8 shall not apply with respect to any fraud committed by a party hereto in connection with this Agreement or the Transactions contemplated hereby or to rights of specific performance set forth in Section 7.13.
