Mr. Benson, age 63, has been the President of the College of Charleston in Charleston, South Carolina since February 2007. From June 1998 until January 2007, he was Dean of the Terry College of Business at the University of Georgia. From July 1993 to June 1998, Mr. Benson served as Dean of the Rutgers Business School at Rutgers University and, prior to that, Mr. Benson was on the faculty of the Carlson School of Management at the University of Minnesota from 1977 to 1993, where he served as Director of the Operations Management Center from 1992 to 1993 and head of the Decision Sciences Area from 1983 to 1988. Mr. Benson currently serves on the Board of Directors for the Foundation for the Malcolm Baldrige National Quality Award, was Chairman of the Board of Overseers for the Baldrige Award Program from 2004 to 2007 and was a national judge for the Baldrige Award from 1997 to 2000.

In connection with his election, Mr. Benson was awarded 2,492 shares of Primerica restricted stock under Primerica’s Omnibus Incentive Plan, which shares vest in three equal installments on each anniversary of the grant date. Mr. Benson also will be entitled to receive the director compensation described in Primerica’s Registration Statement on Form S-1, initially filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 5, 2009, as last amended on March 31, 2010, in connection with Primerica’s initial public offering (the “Registration Statement”). In addition, Primerica has entered into an indemnification agreement with Mr. Benson pursuant to which Primerica is required to indemnify Mr. Benson against certain liabilities which may arise by reason of his status or service as a director and to advance to him expenses, subject to reimbursement if it is determined that he is not entitled to indemnification. The form of such indemnification agreement has been filed as an exhibit to the Registration Statement.
