ITEM 15. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS.
 
    Section 6.5 of Article VI of Protective Life's Restated Certificate of
Incorporation provides that Protective Life shall indemnify to the fullest
extent permitted by law any person who is made or is threatened to be made a
party or is involved in any action, suit, or proceeding whether civil, criminal,
administrative or investigative by reason of the fact that he is or was a
director, officer, employee or agent of Protective Life or was serving at the
request of Protective Life as an officer, director, employee or agent of another
corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise including
service with respect to employee benefit plans.
 
    Protective Life is empowered by Section 145 of the Delaware General
Corporation Law, subject to the proceedings and limitations stated therein, to
indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party
to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether
civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in
the right of Protective Life) by reason of the fact that such person is or was
an officer, employee, agent or director of Protective Life, or is or was serving
at the request of Protective Life as a director, officer, employee or agent of
another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise
against expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid
in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with
such action, suit or proceeding if he acted in good faith and in a manner he
reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of Protective
Life, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable
cause to believe his conduct was unlawful. Protective Life may indemnify any
such person against expenses (including attorneys' fees) in an action by or in
the right of Protective Life under the same conditions, except that no
indemnification is permitted without judicial approval if such person is
adjudged to be liable to Protective Life. To the extent such person is
successful on the merits or otherwise in the defense of any action referred to
above, Protective Life must indemnify him against the expenses which he actually
and reasonably incurred in connection therewith.
 
    Policies of insurance are maintained by Protective Life under which
directors and officers of Protective Life are insured, within the limits and
subject to the limitations of the policies, against certain expenses in
connection with the defense of actions, suits or proceedings, and certain
liabilities which might be imposed as a result of such actions, suits or
proceedings, to which they are parties by reason of being or having been such
directors or officers.
 
    As permitted by Section 102 (b)(7) of the Delaware General Corporation Law,
Protective Life's Restated Certificate of Incorporation also provides that no
director shall be personally liable to Protective
 
                                      II-1
<PAGE>
Life or its stockholders for monetary damages for any breach of fiduciary duty
by such director as a director, except (i) for breach of the director's duty of
loyalty to Protective Life or its stockholders, (ii) for acts or omissions not
in good faith which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of
law, (iii) under Section 174 of the Delaware General Corporation Law or (iv) for
any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit.
 
    Protective Life has entered into indemnity agreements with each of its
directors which provide insurance protection in excess of the directors' and
officers' liability insurance maintained by Protective Life and in force at the
time up to $20 million and against certain liabilities excluded from such
liability insurance. The agreements provide generally that, upon the happening
of certain events constituting a change in control of Protective Life,
Protective Life must obtain a $20 million letter of credit upon which the
directors may draw for defense or settlement of any claim relating to
performance of their duties as directors. Protective Life has similar agreements
with certain of its executive officers under which Protective Life is required
to provide up to $10 million in indemnification, although this obligation is not
secured by a commitment to obtain a letter of credit.
