SECTION 3 – SECURITIES AND TRADING MARKETS

ITEM 3.02 UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES.

     On July 12, 2004, Citizens, Inc. announced that it had completed a private placement of $12.5 million of Series A-1 Senior Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series A-1 Preferred Stock”) to four unaffiliated institutional investors. On July 15, 2005, Citizens filed a Report on Form 8-K (the “July 15, 2004 8-K”) which set forth the terms, provisions and details of that private placement, and attached as exhibits the operative agreements and documents, as referenced in this Report.

     As discussed in the July 15, 2004 8-K, along with the Series A-1 Preferred Stock, the institutional investors each also received unit warrants, attached as Exhibits 10.12(c), (d), (e) and (f), to purchase 1,250 units, each unit consisting of one share of Series A-2 Senior Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series A-2 Preferred Stock”) and additional seven-year warrants to purchase Class A common stock. By their terms, the unit warrants were to expire 12 months from the effective date of the registration statement for the Class A common stock underlying the Class A-1 Preferred Stock, Class A-2 Preferred Stock, and warrants. The effective date of the registration statement was October 1, 2004.

     On July 8, 2005, Smithfield Fiduciary LLC, one of the four institutional investors, whose unit warrant was attached as Exhibit 10.12(f) to the July 15, 2004 8-K, exercised its unit warrant. As adjusted for Citizens’ December 31, 2004 7% Class A common stock dividend, Smithfield paid $1,250,468 for 1,338 shares of Series A-2 Preferred Stock at $934.58 per share. The Series A-2 Preferred Stock may be converted into Citizens Class A common stock at a price per share of $6.54. Under the terms of the unit warrant, the price per common share would be 110% of the volume weighted average price per share for the 30 trading days preceding the exercise of the unit warrant, subject to a floor price of $6.54. This calculation yielded a price per common share slightly less than the minimum price of $6.54. Hence, Smithfield’s Series A-2 Preferred Stock may be converted at a price per share of Class A common stock of $6.54. This dollar amount was as adjusted downward, as a result of the common stock dividend, from the $7.00 minimum stated in the unit warrant.

     Smithfield also received additional warrants to purchase 52,544 shares of Class A common stock, which was, as provided by the unit warrant, 27.5% of the number of common shares into which the Series A-2 Preferred Stock received by Smithfield may be converted.

     The Series A-1 Preferred Stock, along with the warrants and unit warrants received by the institutional investors, was sold pursuant to the private offering exemption under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act of 1933. Likewise, the exercise of the unit warrant was made pursuant to this exemption. The Class A common stock into which the preferred stock may be converted, and which may be received upon exercise of the warrants, has been registered under the Securities Act of 1933 pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-3 (Registration No. 333-118134), which was declared effective on October 1, 2004.
