Item 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.

Effective March 1, 2023, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Primerica, Inc. (the “Company”), in connection with the recent adoption of Rule 14a-19 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Rule 14a-19”), and certain recent amendments to the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”), approved and adopted the Company’s Third Amended and Restated By-Laws (the “Third Amended Restated By-Laws”).

Among other things, the amendments effected by the Third Amended and Restated By-Laws:

updating provisions regarding the manner in which a meeting of stockholders may be adjourned without having to provide additional notice and eliminating the requirement that the list of stockholders entitled to vote at a stockholder meeting be available for review during such meeting, in each case to reflect recent amendments to the DGCL;
clarifying that any stockholder nominating a person for election to the Company’s Board of Directors comply with Rule 14a-19;
requiring that any nominating stockholder make a representation whether such stockholder intends to solicit proxies in support of any director nominees other than the Company’s nominees in accordance with Rule 14a-19;
providing that, if any stockholder provides notice pursuant to Rule 14a-19(b) with respect to any proposed nominee for election to the Company’s Board of Directors and subsequently (a) fails to comply with the requirements of Rule 14a-19(a)(2) or Rule 14a-19(a)(3) or (b) fails to provide reasonable evidence to the Company, no later than five business days prior to the applicable stockholder meeting, that such stockholder has met the requirements of Rule 14a-19(a)(3), then the nomination of each such proposed nominee will be disregarded;
requiring that a stockholder directly or indirectly soliciting proxies from other stockholders use a proxy card color other than white; and
incorporating certain other ministerial, clarifying and conforming changes.

The foregoing summary and description of the Third Amended and Restated By-Laws does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Third Amended and Restated By-Laws, a blackline copy of which is filed hereto as Exhibit 3.1 and is incorporated herein by reference.
