About the Lawsuit

Life Partners and certain of its Officers and Directors are charged with making a series of materially false and misleading statements related to the Company's business and operations in violation of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. On December 21, 2010, The Wall Street Journal published an article questioning the Company's life-expectancy estimates and business practices. The article followed a comprehensive investigation into how the Company sold life settlement policies to investors. In particular, the article stated that Life Partners "has made large fees from its life-insurance transactions while often significantly underestimating the life expectancies of people whose policies its customers invest in." Then on January 20, 2011, The Wall Street Journal reported, and the Company subsequently confirmed, that the SEC was investigating Life Partners. The article reported that "As part of its probe, the SEC's enforcement division has been seeking experts to analyze the way Life Partners has estimated the life expectancies of the insured individuals." On this news, shares of the Company's stock declined $2.58 per share, or over 17 percent, to close on January 20, 2011 at $12.46 per share, on unusually heavy trading volume. The Company's stock continued to decline as additional news about Life Partners was subsequently reported.
