This “Prospectus Supplement No. 6 — Supplement to Prospectus dated March 23, 2015,” supplements our prospectus dated March 23, 2015 (comprising a part of our post-effective amendment to registration statement on Form S-1/A, filed with the SEC on March 13, 2015) (SEC File Nos. 333-197227 and 333-197227-01), as earlier supplemented by sticker supplement no. 3 and sticker supplement no. 4, and our earlier issued Prospectus Supplement No. 5 dated November 12, 2015 (collectively referred to simply as our “prospectus”). GWG Life, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and wholly owned subsidiary of GWG Holdings, Inc., is also a registrant under the referenced registration statement solely by virtue of it being a guarantor of the L Bond Units offered hereby (the “L Bonds”). You should read this supplement together with the prospectus since the information contained herein supplements the information contained in the prospectus. Capitalized terms contained in this supplement have the same meanings as in the prospectus unless otherwise stated herein.
Investing in our L Bonds involves a high degree of risk, including the risk of losing your entire investment. See the “Risk Factors” section of our prospectus for the risks you should carefully consider before buying our L Bonds. The L Bonds are only suitable for persons with substantial financial resources and with no need for liquidity in this investment.
The security provided for the L Bonds includes an unconditional guarantee given by GWG Life, LLC, a subsidiary of the issuer. The value of this unconditional guarantee is based almost entirely on GWG Life’s own investment in another subsidiary, the primary assets of which are pledged as collateral for the repayment of amounts borrowed from a senior lender.

Management Commentary
“GWG strengthened its foundation in 2015 with continued portfolio growth, a strong capital raise, and an expanded financial advisor network — all creating additional shareholder value,” said Jon Sabes, GWG Holdings’ Chief Executive Officer, continuing, “The fourth quarter was particularly rewarding for GWG as we launched two important strategic initiatives — our Appointed Agent Program marketed directly to life insurance professionals, and our $100 million Redeemable Preferred Stock offering. With these initiatives in place, we believe GWG is positioned to lead development of the vast and largely untapped life insurance secondary market.”
William Acheson, GWG Holdings’ Chief Financial Officer, added, “GWG continues to create value for our shareholders by growing our life insurance portfolio and benefitting from the spread between the return we expect to achieve on the portfolio and our cost of financing. As our portfolio grows, we move towards greater diversity and actuarial predictability, which we expect may ultimately translate into lower financing costs and higher returns.”
“In 2015, GWG made tremendous progress in expanding our financial advisor network,” said Michael Freedman, President of GWG Life. “This momentum continued with the development and implementation of our proprietary Appointed Agent program whereby financial advisors in GWG’s securities selling syndicate and other financial services professionals are able to source life insurance policies for GWG. In the fourth quarter, we continued to add financial advisors to our network, increasing the number who can offer our non-correlated yield products to their clients and also act as GWG Appointed Agent in helping their clients access the market value of their life insurance in the secondary market.”
Fourth Quarter 2015 Financial Summary
Total revenue for the three months ended December 31, 2015 was $6.0 million, as compared to $14.3 million for the same period in 2014. Realized gain from policy benefits was $0.8 million and $11.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. The Company recognized $1.5 million of life insurance policy benefits in the fourth quarter of 2015 versus $14.7 million in the same period of 2014. Partially offsetting this decline in revenue from policy benefits was an increase in revenue as a result of unrealized gains associated with new life insurance policy purchases.
Total operating expenses for the fourth quarter of 2015 were $13.6 million, as compared to $10.7 million for the same period in 2014. The increase was driven by increased interest expense on higher outstanding debt balances, increased employee related costs related to increased headcount, increased legal and professional expenses due to the Company’s Redeemable Preferred Stock offering, which became effective and DTC eligible during the period and increased other expenses primarily related to temporary and contract labor costs incurred.
Total net loss attributable to common shareholders was $4.4 million, or $0.75 per basic and fully diluted share, for the three months ended December 31, 2015, compared to net income of $2.1 million, or $0.36 and $0.27 per basic

5
and fully diluted share, respectively, for the same period in 2014. The positive performance for the three months ended December 31, 2014 was driven by the higher realized gains associated with the receipt of life insurance policy benefits in that period.
Full Year 2015 Financial Summary
Total revenue for the year ended December 31, 2015 was $39.6 million, as compared to $30.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2014, an increase of 30%. The increase in revenue was primarily due to the Company recognizing more gains from the maturing of life insurance policies. Realized gain from life insurance policy benefits was $26.7 million and $13.9 million, for the years ended December 31, 2015 and December 31, 2014, respectively. The Company recognized $31.2 million of life insurance policy benefits in 2015, as compared to $18.0 million in 2014.
Total operating expenses for the year ended December 31, 2015 were $50.5 million, as compared to $38.8 million for the full year of 2014. The reasons for the increase year over year are similar in nature to those described above in the quarterly summary.
Total net loss attributable to common shareholders was $6.0 million, or $1.02 per basic and fully diluted share, for the twelve months ended December 31, 2015, as compared to a net loss of $6.1 million, or $1.24 per basic and fully diluted share, for the year ended December 31, 2014.
Liquidity & Capital Resources
The Company had a combined balance of cash, cash equivalents, and available borrowing capacity from its senior credit facility of $74.4 million as of December 31, 2015.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
GWG uses non-GAAP financial measures for evaluating financial results, planning and forecasting, and maintaining compliance with covenants contained in borrowing agreements. The application of current GAAP standards during a period of significant growth in the Company’s business, in which period the Company is building a large and actuarially diverse portfolio of life insurance, results in current period operating performance that may not be reflective of the Company’s long-term earnings potential. Management believes that the Company’s non-GAAP financial measures permit investors to better focus on this long-term earnings performance without regard to the volatility in GAAP financial results that can occur during this phase of growth.
Non-GAAP financial measures disclosed by GWG are provided as additional information to investors in order to provide an alternative method for assessing our financial condition and operating results. These non-GAAP financial measures are not in accordance with GAAP and may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies, including other companies within our industry. The presentation of non-GAAP financial information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for comparable amounts prepared in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of GAAP to the non-GAAP financial measures described above can be found below.
Adjusted Non-GAAP Net Income. Our credit facility requires us to maintain a positive net income calculated on an adjusted non-GAAP basis. We calculate the adjusted net income by recognizing the actuarial gain accruing within our life insurance policies at the expected internal rate of return of the policies we own without regard to fair value. We net this actuarial gain against our adjusted costs during the same period to calculate our net income on a non-GAAP basis.

____________
(1) Reversal of unrealized fair value gain of life insurance policies for current period.
(2) Adjusted cost basis is increased to include those expenses which are not capitalized under GAAP
(3) Accrual of actuarial gain at expected internal rate of return based on the investment cost basis for the period.
(4) We must maintain an annual positive consolidated net income, calculated on a non-GAAP basis, to maintain compliance with our revolving credit facility with DZ Bank/Autobahn.
Non-GAAP Net Asset Value. The non-GAAP net asset value attempts to measure the economic value of the Company’s common equity by netting interest-bearing debt and the redemption value of the Company’s outstanding Series A preferred stock against the value of the Company’s portfolio of life insurance (discounted at our weighted-average cost of financing) and cash and cash equivalents at the end of the measurement period. Management believes this is a useful way to view the common equity value attributable to the current yield spread in the Company’s portfolio of life insurance.

The weighted average cost of capital discount rate used in this calculation is separate and distinct from the discount rate used to determine the GAAP fair value of the portfolio of life insurance policies as described in our most recent form 10-K.
Non-GAAP Blended Portfolio Internal Rate of Return. The non-GAAP blended portfolio internal rate of return is calculated as the weighted average (by face amount of policy benefits) of (a) the internal rate of return attained on matured life insurance policy benefits received to date and (b) the expected internal rate of return on life insurance policies held in the portfolio. By weighting actual and expected results on our portfolio we can better measure and isolate the yield performance of the portfolio over time regardless of our current period GAAP results. This is especially important during the growth phase of the portfolio when the GAAP earnings from the portfolio may not be scaled relative to the Company’s total cost base.
