Leased Properties. The Company leases space for its principal offices and for some of its insurance operations in an office building located in Atlanta,
Georgia under a lease which continues until either party provides written notice of cancellation at least twelve months in advance of the actual termination date (as amended, the “Lease Agreement”). The lease, which commenced on November 1, 2007,
provides for rent adjustments on every fifth anniversary of the commencement date. Under the current terms of the lease, the Company occupies approximately 49,586 square feet of office space. The owner of the building, 4370 Peachtree LLC, is
controlled by an affiliate of the Company.
On December 26, 2024, the Company, and its subsidiary, Bankers Fidelity Life Insurance Company, entered into a Second Amendment to Lease Agreement (the “Second Amendment”) with 4370 Peachtree LLC.
Pursuant to the Second Amendment, the Lease Agreement was modified to increase the base rent payable by the Company, beginning January 1, 2025. The Second Amendment also provides for rent adjustment on January 1, 2027, January 1, 2030 and each five
years thereafter.
American Southern leases space for its office in a
building located in Atlanta, Georgia. The lease term expired September 30,

October 1, 2026 and expiring on July 31, 2037. Under the terms of the lease,
American Southern occupies approximately 17,014 square feet.
