Introduction

This Amendment No. 4 (this "Amendment") amends and supplements the Schedule 13D filed on February 17, 2009, as amended on October 2, 2009, November 9, 2009 and January 11, 2010 (the "Filing"), by Herbert Kurz and Edythe Kurz (the "Reporting Persons") relating to the common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the "Common Stock"), of Presidential Life Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the "Company"). Information reported in the Filing remains in effect except to the extent that it is amended, restated or superseded by information contained in this Amendment. Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Amendment have the respective meanings set forth in the Filing.

Item 4.

Purpose of the Transaction.

Item 4 is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

Within the applicable time period under Delaware law, Mr. Kurz did not obtain the requisite number of consents in order to effectuate the proposals contained in his consent solicitation statement filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on December 4, 2009. Mr. Kurz, however, received significant support from the Company's stockholders, receiving consents representing approximately 44% of the outstanding shares of Common Stock. Mr. Kurz believes that this support confirms that many of the Company's stockholders are dissatisfied with the current leadership, management and direction of the Company.

On February 12, 2010, in accordance with Article II, Section 12 of the Company's Amended and Restated Bylaws, the Reporting Persons delivered a Notice of Nomination of Directors, in connection with the Company's 2010 Annual Meeting of Stockholders (the "2010 Annual Meeting"), for the purposes of nominating Donna L. Brazile, William J. Flynn, Herbert Kurz, John F. X. Mannion, Donald Shaffer, Douglas B. Sosnik, Daniel M. Theriault, Jerry Warshaw and Cliff L. Wood (collectively, the "Nominees") for election as directors of the Company at the 2010 Annual Meeting to serve as directors until their successors are duly elected and qualified. If the Nominees are elected, the Reporting Persons believe they will constitute the entire membership of the Company's Board of Directors.

The Reporting Persons have not yet made a final decision regarding whether or not they will solicit proxies at the 2010 Annual Meeting in support of the election of the Nominees.

SIGNATURE

After reasonable inquiry and to the best of the knowledge and belief of the undersigned, such persons certify that the information set forth herein is true, complete and correct.
