will ensure that all shareholders, including those voting by proxy, will have prior knowledge of matters that are to come before
the shareholder meetings. These amendments will discourage unexpected action at the meetings and will establish an orderly process
for shareholders seeking to propose business at shareholder meetings or nominate directors. The current Bylaws permit shareholders
holding a majority of the voting stock to call special meetings and to act by written consent, but they offer scant guidance in
the many procedural issues that might arise. The Amended Bylaws provide specific guidance for the call of special meetings and
use of written consents, which will be useful in resolving uncertainties and reducing the risk of misunderstandings.</P>

Item 5.03. Amendment to Articles of Incorporation
or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.
On April 2, 2012, the Board of Directors
(the "
Board
") of Life Partners Holdings, Inc.
("
we
")
adopted and approved amended and restated bylaws (the "
Amended Bylaws
"), which were effective upon approval.
The Amended Bylaws include the following:
·
Adopting advance notice and related provisions for shareholders seeking to bring proposals, including
the nomination of directors, before a shareholder meeting
(other than proposals properly made in accordance with Rule 14a-8
under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ("
Rule 14a-8
"))
;
·
Implementing disclosure requirements about the proposal or nomination, which include information regarding the proposing shareholder's
economic, voting and other interests that may be material to an evaluation of the proposal or nomination;
·
Requiring shareholders seeking to make a proposal or nomination to update and supplement disclosures, if necessary, to ensure
that we and our shareholders have current and accurate information;
·
Establishing procedures for the call of special meetings by shareholders, including the means for requesting and establishing
a record date for those calling the meeting, for determining the requisite ownership of 50% or more of the outstanding voting stock,
and for fixing the record and meeting dates after a proper call, and including provisions for disclosure of the business to be
conducted and for updating the disclosure;
·
Establishing procedures for the shareholders' use of written consents in lieu of a meeting, including the means for requesting
and establishing a record date for those acting by consent, for determining the requisite ownership of 50% or more of the outstanding
voting stock, and for fixing the period in which the requisite consents must be delivered, and including provisions for disclosure
of the action to be taken and for updating the disclosure;
·
Conforming the bylaws to changes in the Texas corporation statutes, including the adoption of the
Texas Business Organizations Code, which became effective for us in 2010, which include authorizing the use of electronic transmissions
such as e-mail for
notice requirements
.
In addition, the Amended Bylaws include conforming changes and
other non-substantive and technical edits and updates.
The Board believes the advance notice amendments
will ensure that all shareholders, including those voting by proxy, will have prior knowledge of matters that are to come before
the shareholder meetings. These amendments will discourage unexpected action at the meetings and will establish an orderly process
for shareholders seeking to propose business at shareholder meetings or nominate directors. The current Bylaws permit shareholders
holding a majority of the voting stock to call special meetings and to act by written consent, but they offer scant guidance in
the many procedural issues that might arise. The Amended Bylaws provide specific guidance for the call of special meetings and
use of written consents, which will be useful in resolving uncertainties and reducing the risk of misunderstandings.
2
The Board has
fixed August 6, 2012, as the date for the 2012 Annual Meeting of Shareholders. The Board expects that proxy materials will
be mailed on or about June 22, 2012, to shareholders of record as of June 7, 2012. To comply with the advance notice
requirements, a shareholder wishing to make a proposal
(other than a proposal properly made under Rule 14a-8)
or
director nomination at the Annual Meeting must deliver timely notice (as defined in the Amended Bylaws) in proper form on or before
May 8, 2012.
The foregoing description of the Amended
Bylaws is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Amended Bylaws, a copy of which is filed as an exhibit
and incorporated herein by reference.
