(d) On February 22, 2023, pursuant to the By-Laws of Globe Life Inc. (the "Company"), the Board of Directors (the "Board") of the Company voted to expand the number of directors to fourteen persons as of such date. The Board appointed Alice S. Cho and David A. Rodriguez to fill the newly-created directorships. Ms. Cho and Mr. Rodriguez will each serve for an initial term commencing on February 22, 2023 and expiring at the April 27, 2023 Annual Meeting of Shareholders. There were no understandings or arrangements pursuant to which Ms. Cho or Mr. Rodriguez were selected as directors.

Having been determined by the Board to be "independent" pursuant to NYSE rules and additional Company criteria, Ms. Cho was named to serve on the Audit Committee of the Board and Mr. Rodriguez was named to serve on the Governance and Nominating Committee of the Board.

Ms. Cho and Mr. Rodriguez will be compensated for their service as directors pursuant to the Amended Globe Life Inc. 2018 Non-Employee Director Compensation Plan (the "Plan"), a sub-plan of the Globe Life Inc. 2018 Incentive Plan. Pursuant to the Plan, each newly-elected director will receive an annual cash retainer of $100,000 prorated for the period of his or her service (unless a timely election is made to receive an equivalent amount of restricted stock, restricted stock units, or stock options) and an annual equity retainer allowing him or her to elect to receive $170,000 of restricted stock, restricted stock units, or stock options prorated for the period of his or her service. As a member of the Audit Committee, Ms. Cho will also receive an annual cash Audit Committee member retainer of $12,500 (prorated for the period of her service). There are no transactions or currently proposed transactions requiring disclosure pursuant to Item 404(a) of Regulation S-K involving Ms. Cho or Mr. Rodriguez.

On February 22, 2023, Darren M. Rebelez notified the Board of his intention to retire as a director of the Company at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders on April 27, 2023, and not stand for re-election. Mr. Rebelez’s departure from the Board was not a result of a disagreement with the Company on any matters related to its operations, policies, or practices.
