         (e) All other reports filed by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or
         15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act") since
         the end of the fiscal year covered by the annual report referred to in

document, all or a portion of which is incorporated by reference herein, shall
be deemed to be modified or superseded for purposes of this Registration
Statement to the extent that a statement contained or incorporated by reference

superseded shall not be deemed, except as so modified or superseded, to
constitute a part of this Registration Statement.

ITEM 4.  DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES.

         Not applicable.


ITEM 5.  INTERESTS OF NAMED EXPERTS AND COUNSEL.

         James W. Jennings, a director of the Registrant, is a partner in the
law firm of Morgan, Lewis & Bockius LLP, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, which firm
previously provided an opinion of counsel as to the legality of the securities
being registered hereunder.

ITEM 6.  INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.

         Section 102(b) (7) of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the "DGCL")
permits a corporation, in its certificate of incorporation, to limit or
eliminate, subject to certain statutory limitations, the liability of directors
to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breaches of
fiduciary duty, except for liability (a) for any breach of the director's duty
of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders, (b) for acts or omissions not
in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of
law, (c) under Section 174 of the



                                      II-1
<PAGE>   3


DGCL, or (d) for any transaction from which the director derived an improper
personal benefit. Article Eighth of the Registrant's Restated Certificate of
Incorporation provides that the personal liability of directors of the
Registrant is eliminated to the fullest extent permitted by Section 102(b) (7)
of the DGCL.

         Under Section 145 of DGCL, a corporation has the power to indemnify
directors and officers under certain prescribed circumstances and subject to
certain limitations against certain costs and expenses, including attorneys'
fees actually and reasonably incurred in connection with any action, suit or
proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, to which
any of them is a party by reason of being a director or officer of the
corporation if it is determined that the director or officer acted in accordance
with the applicable standard of conduct set forth in such statutory provision.
Article Seventh of the Registrant's Amended and Restated Bylaws provides that
the Registrant will indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened
to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or
proceeding by reason of the fact that he is or was a director, officer or other
authorized representative of the Registrant, or is or was serving at the request
of the Registrant as a director, officer, employee or agent of another entity,
against certain liabilities, costs and expenses. Article Seventh further permits
the Registrant to maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a
director, officer, employee or agent of the Registrant, or is or was serving at
the request of the Registrant as a director, officer, employee or agent of
another entity, against any liability asserted against such person and incurred
by such person in any such capacity or arising out of his status as such,
whether or not the Registrant would have the power to indemnify such person
against such liability under the DGCL.

ITEM 9.  UNDERTAKINGS.

         (a) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes:

                  (1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are
being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

                           (i) To include any prospectus required by Section
         10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;

                           (ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events
         arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the
         most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in
         the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set
         forth in the registration statement; and

                           (iii) To include any material information with
         respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the
         registration statement or any material change to such information in
         the registration statement;

                  Provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) of
this section do not apply if the information required to be included in a
post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic



                                      II-2
<PAGE>   4


reports filed by the Company pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the
registration statement.

                  (2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under
the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed
to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein,
and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the
initial bona fide offering thereof.

                  (3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective
amendment any of the securities being registered that remain unsold at the
termination of the offering.

         (b) The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for the purpose
of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of
the Company's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that is incorporated by reference in this
registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement
relating to the securities offered therein and the offering of such securities
at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

         (c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the
Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling
persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise,
the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and
Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed
in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for
indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the
registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling
person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or
proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in
connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in
the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent,
submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such
indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will
be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

Re:      Radian Group Inc.- Registration Statement on Form S-8

Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as counsel to Radian Group Inc., a Delaware corporation (the
"Company"), in connection with the preparation of a Registration Statement on
Form S-8 (the "Registration Statement") filed with the Securities and Exchange
Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Act"), relating to
the registration of up to 1,492,171 shares of Common Stock, par value $.001 per
share (the "Shares"), of the Company to be issued in connection with the
Company's 1999 Equity Compensation Plan, as amended, and the Amerin Corporation
1992 Long-Term Stock Incentive Plan (collectively, the "Plans"). In rendering
the opinion set forth below, we have reviewed (a) the Registration Statement;
(b) the Company's Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and Amended
and Restated Bylaws; (c) certain records of the Company's corporate proceedings
as reflected in its minute books; (d) the Plans; and (e) such records,
documents, statutes and decisions as we have deemed relevant. In our
examination, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity
of all documents submitted to us as originals and the conformity with the
original of all documents submitted to us as copies thereof.

Based upon the foregoing, we are of the opinion that the Shares will, when
issued in the manner and on the terms described in the Plan, be duly authorized,
validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

We hereby consent to the use of this opinion as Exhibit 5.1 to the Registration
Statement. In giving such opinion, we do not thereby admit that we are acting
within the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the
Act or the rules or regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission
thereunder.

Very truly yours,



/s/ Morgan, Lewis & Bockius LLP
