FEDERAL TAX MATTERS The following is a brief summary of some tax rules that may apply to your Policy. It does not purport to be complete or cover every situation. The summary does not address state, local or foreign tax issues related to the Policy. Because individual circumstances vary, you should consult with your own tax adviser to find out how taxes can affect your benefits and rights under your Policy, especially before you make unscheduled premium payments, change the coverage provided by the base policy or the benefit options, take a loan or withdrawal, or assign or surrender the Policy. Under current federal income tax law, the taxable portion of distributions from variable life contracts is taxed at ordinary income tax rates and does not qualify for the reduced tax rate applicable to long-term capital gains and dividends. IRS CIRCULAR 230 NOTICE: The tax information contained in this Prospectus is not intended to (and cannot) be used by anyone to avoid IRS penalties. It is intended to support the sale of the Policy. The Policyholder should seek tax advice based on its particular circumstances from an independent tax adviser. YOU SHOULD CONSULT WITH YOUR OWN TAX ADVISER TO FIND OUT HOW TAXES CAN AFFECT YOUR BENEFITS AND RIGHTS UNDER YOUR POLICY. 3 INSURANCE PROCEEDS . Generally excludable from your beneficiary's gross income to the extent provided in Section 101 of the Internal Revenue Code ("Code"). In the case of employer-owned life insurance as defined in Section 101(j) of the Code, the amount excludable from gross income is limited to premiums paid unless the policy falls within certain specified exceptions and a notice and consent requirement is satisfied before the policy is issued. Certain specified exceptions are based on the status of an employee as highly compensated, a director, or recently employed. There are also exceptions for policy proceeds paid to an employee's heirs. These exceptions only apply if proper notice is given to the insured employee and consent is received from the insured employee before the issuance of the policy. These rules apply to policies issued August 18, 2006 and later and also apply to policies issued before August 18, 2006 after a material increase in the death benefit or other material change. An IRS reporting requirement applies to employer-owned life insurance subject to these rules. Because these rules are complex and will affect the tax treatment of Death Benefits, it is advisable to consult tax counsel. Insurance death proceeds will also be taxable in the case of a transfer-for-value unless certain exceptions apply. . The proceeds may be subject to federal estate tax: (i) if paid to the insured's estate; or (ii) if paid to a different beneficiary if the insured possessed incidents of ownership at or within three years before death. . If you die before the insured, the value of your Policy (determined under IRS rules) is included in your estate and may be subject to federal estate tax. . Whether or not any federal estate tax is due is based on a number of factors including the estate size. . The insurance proceeds payable upon death of the insured under a Policy will never be less than the minimum amount required for the Policy to be treated as life insurance under section 7702 of the Internal Revenue Code, as in effect on the date the Policy was issued. The rules under section 7702 of the Internal Revenue Code with respect to Policies issued on a substandard risk basis are not entirely clear. CASH VALUE (IF YOUR POLICY IS NOT A MODIFIED ENDOWMENT CONTRACT) . You are generally not taxed on your cash value (except with respect to the DWI option) until you withdraw it or surrender your Policy. In these cases, you are generally permitted to take withdrawals and receive other distributions up to the amount of premiums paid without any tax consequences. However, withdrawals and other distributions will be subject to income tax after you have received amounts equal to the total premiums you paid. Somewhat different rules apply in the first 15 Policy years, when a distribution may be subject to tax if there is a gain in your Policy (which is generally when your cash value exceeds the cumulative premiums you paid). . There may be an indirect tax upon the income in the Policy or the proceeds of a Policy under the Federal corporate alternative minimum tax, if you are subject to that tax. . For income tax purposes, if you surrender an Equity Option for its cash value but the base policy remains in force, you will be considered to have made a partial withdrawal. . Amounts applied to the DWI option are treated as distributions from the Policy and interest credited on amounts applied to the DWI option is currently taxable as ordinary income. SPLIT DOLLAR INSURANCE PLANS The IRS has issued guidance on split dollar insurance plans. A tax advisor should be consulted with respect to this new guidance if you have purchased or are considering the purchase of a Policy for a split dollar insurance plan. If your split dollar plan provides deferred compensation, recently enacted rules governing deferred compensation arrangements may apply. Failure to adhere to these rules will result in adverse tax consequences. Consult a tax adviser. 4 The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 (the "Act"), which was signed into law on July 30, 2002, prohibits, with limited exceptions, publicly-traded companies, including non-U.S. companies that have securities listed on U.S. exchanges, from extending, directly or indirectly or through a subsidiary, many types of personal loans to their directors or executive officers. It is possible that this prohibition may be interpreted to apply to certain split-dollar life insurance arrangements for directors and executive officers of such companies, since at least some such arrangements can arguably be viewed as involving a loan from the employer for at least some purposes. Any affected business contemplating the payment of a premium on an existing Policy or the purchase of a new Policy in connection with a split-dollar life insurance arrangement should consult legal counsel. LOANS . Loan amounts you receive will generally not be subject to income tax, unless your Policy is or becomes a modified endowment contract, is exchanged or terminates. . Interest on loans is generally not deductible. For businesses that own a Policy, at least part of the interest deduction unrelated to the Policy may be disallowed unless the insured is a 20% owner, officer, director or employee of the business. . If your Policy terminates (upon surrender, cancellation, lapse or, in most cases, exchange) while any Policy loan is outstanding, the amount of the loan plus accrued interest thereon will be deemed to be a "distribution" to you. Any such distribution will have the same tax consequences as any other Policy distribution. In the case of an outstanding loan at the time of an exchange, the cancelled loan will generally be taxed to the extent of any policy gain. Since amounts borrowed reduce the cash value that will be distributed to you if the Policy is surrendered, canceled or lapses, any cash value distributed to you in these circumstances may be insufficient to pay the income tax on any gain. MODIFIED ENDOWMENT CONTRACTS These contracts are life insurance contracts where the premiums paid during the first 7 years after the Policy is issued, or after a material change in the Policy, exceed tax law limits referred to as the "7-pay test." Material changes in the Policy include changes in the level of benefits and certain other changes to your Policy after the issue date. Reductions in benefits during a 7-pay period may cause your Policy to become a modified endowment contract. Generally, a life insurance policy that is received in exchange for a modified endowment contract will also be considered a modified endowment contract. The IRS has promulgated a procedure for the correction of inadvertent modified endowment contracts. Due to the flexibility of the Policies as to premiums and benefits, the individual circumstances of each Policy will determine whether it is classified as a Modified Endowment Contract. If your Policy is considered a modified endowment contract the following applies: . The death benefit will generally be income tax free to your beneficiary, as discussed above. . Amounts withdrawn or distributed before the insured's death, including (without limitation) loans, assignments and pledges, are treated as income first and subject to income tax (to the extent of any gain in your Policy). All modified endowment contracts you purchase from us and our affiliates during the same calendar year are treated as a single contract for purposes of determining the amount of any such income. . An additional 10% income tax generally applies to the taxable portion of the amounts received before age 59 1/2, except generally if you are disabled or if the distribution is part of a series of substantially equal periodic payments. . If a Policy becomes a modified endowment contract, distributions that occur during the contract year will be taxed as distributions from a modified endowment contract. In addition, distributions from a Policy within two years before it becomes a modified endowment contract will be taxed in this manner. This means that a distribution made from a Policy that is not a modified endowment contract could later become taxable as a distribution from a modified endowment contract. 5 DIVERSIFICATION In order for your Policy to qualify as life insurance, we must comply with certain diversification standards with respect to the investments underlying the Equity Options. We believe that we satisfy and will continue to satisfy these diversification standards. Inadvertent failure to meet these standards may be able to be corrected. Failure to meet these standards would result in immediate taxation to Policy owners of gains under their Policies. In addition, if the Portfolio shares are sold directly to tax-qualified retirement plans that later lose their tax-qualified status or to non-qualified plans, there could be adverse consequences under the diversification rules. INVESTOR CONTROL In some circumstances, owners of variable contracts who retain excessive control over the investment of the assets in an insurance company's separate account may be treated as the owners of those assets and may be subject to tax on income produced by those assets. The Equity Options are supported by assets held in our Separate Account. Although we believe that the owner of a Policy that purchases any Equity Options should not be treated as an owner of any assets in our Separate Account, we reserve the right to modify the Policies (including the Equity Options) to bring them into conformity with applicable standards should such modification be necessary to prevent owners of the policies from being treated as the owners of any assets in our Separate Account. ESTATE, GIFT AND GENERATION-SKIPPING TRANSFER TAXES The transfer of the Policy or the designation of a beneficiary may have Federal, state, and/or local transfer and inheritance tax consequences, including the imposition of gift, estate, and generation-skipping transfer taxes. When the insured dies, the death proceeds will generally be includable in the Policy owner's estate for purposes of the Federal estate tax if the Policy owner was the insured, if the insured possessed incidents of ownership in the Policy at the time of death, or the insured made a gift transfer of the Policy within three years of death. If the Policy owner was not the insured, the fair market value of the Policy would be included in the Policy owner's estate upon the Policy owner's death. Moreover, under certain circumstances, the Internal Revenue Code may impose a "generation-skipping transfer tax" when all or part of a life insurance policy is transferred to, or a death benefit is paid to, an individual two or more generations younger than the Policy owner. Regulations issued under the Internal Revenue Code may require us to deduct the tax from your Policy, or from any applicable payment, and pay it directly to the IRS. Qualified tax advisers should be consulted concerning the estate and gift tax consequences of Policy ownership and distributions under Federal, state and local law. The individual situation of each Policy owner or beneficiary will determine the extent, if any, to which Federal, state, and local transfer and inheritance taxes may be imposed and how ownership or receipt of Policy proceeds will be treated for purposes of Federal, state and local estate, inheritance, generation-skipping transfer and other taxes. In general, current rules provide for a $5 million estate, gift and generation-skipping transfer tax exemption (as indexed for inflation) and a top tax rate of 40 percent. The complexity of the tax law, along with uncertainty as to how it might be modified in coming years, underscores the importance of seeking guidance from a qualified adviser to help ensure that your estate plan adequately addresses your needs and those of your beneficiaries under all possible scenarios. WITHHOLDING To the extent that Policy distributions are taxable, they are generally subject to withholding for the recipient's federal income tax liability. Recipients can generally elect however, not to have tax withheld from distributions. 6 LIFE INSURANCE PURCHASES BY RESIDENTS OF PUERTO RICO In Rev. Rul. 2004-75, 2004-31 I.R.B. 109, the Internal Revenue Service recently announced that income received by residents of Puerto Rico under life insurance contracts issued by a Puerto Rico branch of a United States life insurance company is U.S.-source income that is generally subject to United States Federal income tax. LIFE INSURANCE PURCHASES BY NONRESIDENT ALIENS AND FOREIGN CORPORATIONS Purchasers that are not U.S. citizens or residents will generally be subject to U.S. federal withholding tax on taxable distributions from life insurance policies at a 30% rate, unless a lower treaty rate applies. In addition, purchasers may be subject to state and/or municipal taxes and taxes that may be imposed by the purchaser's country of citizenship or residence. Prospective purchasers that are not U.S. citizens or residents are advised to consult with a qualified tax adviser regarding U.S. and foreign taxation with respect to a Policy purchase. BUSINESS USES OF POLICY Businesses can use the policies in various arrangements, including nonqualified deferred compensation or salary continuance plans, split dollar insurance plans, executive bonus plans, tax exempt and nonexempt welfare benefit plans, retiree medical benefit plans and others. The tax consequences of such plans may vary depending on the particular facts and circumstances. As noted, in the case of a business owned Policy, the provisions of Section 101(j) of the Code may limit the amount of the Death Benefit excludable from gross income unless a specified exception applies and a notice and consent requirement is satisfied, as discussed above. If you are purchasing the Policy for any arrangement the value of which depends in part on its tax consequences, you should consult a qualified tax adviser. CHANGES TO TAX RULES AND INTERPRETATIONS Changes in applicable tax rules and interpretations can adversely affect the tax treatment of your Policy. These changes may take effect retroactively. We reserve the right to amend the Policy in any way necessary to avoid any adverse tax treatment. Examples of changes that could create adverse tax consequences include: . Possible taxation of cash value transfers among the options within the Policy. . Possible taxation as if you were the owner of your allocable portion of the Separate Account's assets. . Possible changes in the tax treatment of Policy benefits and rights. TAX CREDITS AND DEDUCTIONS The Company may be entitled to certain tax benefits related to the assets of the Separate Account. These tax benefits, which may include foreign tax credits and corporate dividend received deductions, are not passed back to the Separate Account or to Policy owners since the Company is the owner of the assets from which the tax benefits are derived. THE COMPANY'S INCOME TAXES Under current Federal income tax law we are not taxed on the Separate Account's operations. Thus, currently we do not deduct a charge from the Separate Account for company Federal income taxes. (We do deduct a charge for Federal taxes from premiums.) We reserve the right to charge the Separate Account for any future Federal income taxes we may incur. Under current laws we may incur state and local taxes (in addition to premium taxes). These taxes are not now significant and we are not currently charging for them. If they increase, we may deduct charges for such taxes.

SAI-2 THE COMPANY AND THE SEPARATE ACCOUNT MetLife is a wholly-owned subsidiary of MetLife, Inc. a publicly traded company. Our principal executive office is located at 200 Park Avenue, New York, New York 10166. MetLife was formed under the laws of New York State in 1866. MetLife, Inc., through its subsidiaries and affiliates, provides insurance and other financial services to individual and group customers. We established the Separate Account under New York law on December 13, 1988. The Separate Account receives premium payments from the Equity Options described in the Prospectus and other variable life insurance policies that we issue. We have registered the Separate Account as a unit investment trust under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (the "1940 Act"). DISTRIBUTION OF THE POLICIES THAT INCLUDE THE EQUITY OPTIONS MetLife Investors Distribution Company ("MLIDC") is the principal underwriter and distributor of the Equity Options. MLIDC, which is our affiliate, is registered under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "34 Act") as a broker-dealer and is a member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority ("FINRA"). Beginning January 1, 2009, new Equity Options are no longer sold. We offered the Equity Options through licensed life insurance sales representatives who are associated with MetLife Securities, Inc. ("MSI") and New England Securities Corporation ("NES"), our affiliates. MSI and NES are registered with the SEC as broker-dealers under the 34 Act and are also members of FINRA. We also offered the Equity Options through licensed life insurance sales representatives associated with unaffiliated broker-dealers with which MLIDC enters into a selling agreement. COMMISSIONS We do not pay commissions for the sale of the Equity Additions. MLIDC received sales compensation with respect to the sale of Equity Enricher in the following amounts:
AGGREGATE AMOUNT OF AGGREGATE AMOUNT OF COMMISSIONS RETAINED COMMISSIONS PAID TO BY DISTRIBUTOR AFTER FISCAL YEAR DISTRIBUTOR PAYMENTS TO SELLING FIRMS ----------- ------------------- ------------------------- 2013..... $24,088 $0 2012..... $26,048 $0 2011..... $28,692 $0
INCOME PLANS Generally, you can receive the Policy's insurance proceeds or amounts paid upon surrender of your Policy or your Equity Option under an income plan instead of in a lump sum. Before you choose an income plan you should consider: . The tax consequences associated with insurance or surrender proceeds, which can vary considerably, depending on whether a plan is chosen. You or your beneficiary should consult with a qualified tax adviser about tax consequences. . That your Policy or Equity Options will terminate at the time you commence an income plan and you will receive a new contract, which describes the terms of the income plan. You should carefully review the terms of the new contract, because it contains important information about the terms and conditions of the income plan. . The rates of return that we credit under these plans are not based on any of the Portfolios. SAI-3 Generally, we currently make the following income plans available: . Interest income . Installment Income for a Stated Period . Installment Income for . Single Life a Stated Amount Income-Guaranteed Payment Period . Joint and Survivor . Single Life Life Income Income-Guaranteed Return POTENTIAL CONFLICTS OF INTEREST The Portfolio's Boards of Trustees monitor events to identify conflicts that may arise from the sale of Portfolio shares to variable life and variable annuity separate accounts of affiliated and, if applicable, unaffiliated insurance companies and qualified plans. Conflicts could result from changes in state insurance law or Federal income tax law, changes in investment management of a Portfolio, or differences in voting instructions given by variable life and variable annuity contract owners and qualified plans, if applicable. If there is a material conflict, the Board of Trustees will determine what action should be taken, including the removal of the affected Investment Division from the Portfolio(s), if necessary. If we believe any Portfolio action is insufficient, we will consider taking other action to protect Policy Owners. There could, however, be unavoidable delays or interruptions of operations of the Separate Account that we may be unable to remedy. LIMITS TO METLIFE'S RIGHT TO CHALLENGE THE POLICY We will not contest your Policy after two years from the base policy's issue or reinstatement (excluding riders added later). MISSTATEMENT OF AGE OR SEX We will adjust benefits to reflect the correct age and sex of the insured, if this information is not correct in any Policy application. REPORTS Generally, you will promptly receive statements confirming your significant transactions such as: . Transactions between an Equity Option and another part of the Policy. . Transfers between investment divisions. . Partial withdrawals. . Loan amounts you request. . Premium payments. If your premium payments are made through preauthorized checking arrangement or another systematic payment method, we will not send you any confirmation in addition to the one you receive from your bank or employer. We will also send you an annual statement within 30 days after a Policy year. The statement will summarize the year's transactions and include information on: . Deductions and charges. . Status of the death benefit. . Cash values. . Amounts in each investment division you are using. SAI-4 . Status of Policy loans. . Automatic loans to pay interest. . Information on your modified endowment contract status (if applicable). We will also send you a Fund's annual and semi-annual reports to shareholders. PERFORMANCE DATA We may provide information concerning the historical investment experience of the investment divisions, including average annual net rates of return for periods of one, three, five, and ten years, as well as average annual net rates of return and total net rates of return since inception of the Portfolios. These net rates of return represent past performance and are not an indication of future performance. Cost of insurance, sales, premium tax, and mortality and expense risk charges, which can significantly reduce the return to the Equity Options owner, are not reflected in these rates. The rates of return reflect only the fees and expenses of the underlying Portfolios. The net rates of return show performance from the inception of the Portfolios, which in some instances, may precede the inception date of the corresponding investment division. PERSONALIZED ILLUSTRATIONS We may provide personalized illustrations showing how the Equity Options work based on assumptions about investment returns and the Policy Owner's and/or insured's characteristics. The illustrations are intended to show how the death benefit and cash value for the Equity Options could vary over an extended period of time assuming hypothetical gross rates of return (I.E., investment income and capital gains and losses, realized or unrealized) for the Separate Account equal to specified constant after-tax rates of return. One of the gross rates of return will be 0%. Gross rates of return do not reflect the deduction of any charges and expenses. The illustrations will be based on specified assumptions, such as face amount, premium payments, insured, underwriting class, and death benefit. Illustrations will disclose the specific assumptions upon which they are based. Values will be given based on guaranteed mortality and expense risk and other charges and may also be based on current mortality and expense risk and other charges.

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS The financial statements of the Separate Account and the financial statements of MetLife are attached to this Statement of Additional Information. Our financial statements should be considered only as bearing upon our ability to meet our obligations under the Policy and the Equity Options. SAI-5 REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM To the Policy Owners of Metropolitan Life Separate Account UL and Board of Directors of Metropolitan Life Insurance Company We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities of Metropolitan Life Separate Account UL (the "Separate Account") of Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (the "Company") comprising each of the individual Investment Divisions listed in Note 2.A as of December 31, 2013, the related statements of operations and changes in net assets for the respective stated periods in the three years then ended, and the financial highlights in Note 8 for the respective stated periods in the five years then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the Separate Account's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. The Separate Account is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Separate Account's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures included confirmation of investments owned as of December 31, 2013, by correspondence with the custodian or mutual fund companies. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the Investment Divisions constituting the Separate Account of the Company as of December 31, 2013, the results of their operations and changes in their net assets for the respective stated periods in the three years then ended, and the financial highlights for the respective stated periods in the five years then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. /s/ DELOITTE & TOUCHE LLP Certified Public Accountants Tampa, Florida March 27, 2014 This page is intentionally left blank.

Rowe Price Large Cap Growth Portfolio (MSF) FI Value Leaders Portfolio (MSF) MFS Value Portfolio (MSF) Oppenheimer Global Equity Portfolio (a) (MIST) Met/Templeton Growth Portfolio (a)
(a) At the close of business on April 26, 2013, the (MSF) Oppenheimer Global Equity Portfolio merged with and into the (MIST) Met/Templeton Growth Portfolio. Concurrently, OppenheimerFunds, Inc. became the subadviser of the (MIST) Met/Templeton Growth Portfolio, the portfolio's investment objective and principal investment strategies changed, and the portfolio's name was changed to (MIST) Oppenheimer Global Equity Portfolio. Pursuant to these changes, the MSF Oppenheimer Global Equity Portfolio was deemed to be the accounting and performance survivor of the merger for financial reporting purposes, and therefore, the results of MIST Oppenheimer Global Equity Investment Division presented in the financial statements reflect the historical results of MSF Oppenheimer Global Equity Investment Division prior to the merger, and the combined results thereafter. 4. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES BASIS OF ACCOUNTING The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") applicable for variable life separate accounts registered as unit investment trusts. SECURITY TRANSACTIONS Security transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Realized gains and losses on the sales of investments are computed on the basis of the average cost of the investment sold. Income from dividends and realized gain distributions are recorded on the ex-distribution date. 173 METROPOLITAN LIFE SEPARATE ACCOUNT UL OF METROPOLITAN LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) 4. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES -- (CONTINUED) SECURITY VALUATION An Investment Division's investment in shares of a fund, portfolio, or series of the Trusts is valued at fair value based on the closing net asset value ("NAV") or price per share as determined by the Trusts as of the end of the year. All changes in fair value are recorded as changes in unrealized gains (losses) on investments in the statements of operations of the applicable Investment Divisions. The Separate Account defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The Separate Account prioritizes the inputs to fair valuation techniques and allows for the use of unobservable inputs to the extent that observable inputs are not available. The Separate Account has categorized its assets based on the priority of the inputs to the respective valuation technique. The fair value hierarchy gives the highest priority to quoted prices in active markets for identical assets (Level 1) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3). An asset's classification within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of significant input to its valuation. The input levels are as follows: Level 1 Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets that the Separate Account has the ability to access. Level 2 Observable inputs other than quoted prices in Level 1 that are observable either directly or indirectly. These inputs may include quoted prices for the identical instrument on an inactive market or prices for similar instruments. Level 3 Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and are significant to the fair value of the assets, representing the Separate Account's own assumptions about the assumptions a market participant would use in valuing the asset, and based on the best information available. Each Investment Division invests in shares of open-end mutual funds which calculate a daily NAV based on the fair value of the underlying securities in their portfolios. As a result, and as required by law, shares of open-end mutual funds are purchased and redeemed at their quoted daily NAV as reported by the Trusts at the close of each business day. On that basis, the inputs used to value all shares held by the Separate Account, which are measured at fair value on a recurring basis, are classified as Level 2. There were no transfers between Level 1 and Level 2, and no activity in Level 3 during the year. FEDERAL INCOME TAXES The operations of the Separate Account form a part of the total operations of the Company and are not taxed separately. The Company is taxed as a life insurance company under the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code ("IRC"). Under the current provisions of the IRC, the Company does not expect to incur federal income taxes on the earnings of the Separate Account to the extent the earnings are credited under the Policies. Accordingly, no charge is currently being made to the Separate Account for federal income taxes. The Company will periodically review the status of this policy in the event of changes in the tax law. A charge may be made in future years for any federal income taxes that would be attributable to the Policies. PREMIUM PAYMENTS The Company deducts a sales charge for certain Policies and a state premium tax charge from premiums before amounts are allocated to the Separate Account. In the case of certain Policies, the Company also deducts a federal income tax charge before amounts are allocated to the Separate Account. This federal income tax charge is imposed in connection with certain Policies to recover a portion of the federal income tax adjustment attributable to policy acquisition expenses. Net premiums are reported as premium payments received from policy owners on the statements of changes in net assets of the applicable Investment Divisions and are credited as accumulation units. NET TRANSFERS Funds transferred by the policy owner into or out of Investment Divisions within the Separate Account or into or out of the fixed account, which is part the Company's general account, are recorded on a net basis as net transfers in the statements of changes in net assets of the applicable Investment Divisions. 174 METROPOLITAN LIFE SEPARATE ACCOUNT UL OF METROPOLITAN LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) 4. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES -- (CONCLUDED) USE OF ESTIMATES The preparation of financial statements in accordance with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported herein. Actual results could differ from these estimates. 5. EXPENSES AND RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS The following annual Separate Account charge paid to the Company, is an asset-based charge and assessed through a daily reduction in unit values, which is recorded as an expense in the accompanying statements of operations of the applicable Investment Divisions: Mortality and Expense Risk -- The mortality risk assumed by the Company is the risk that those insured may die sooner than anticipated and therefore, the Company will pay an aggregate amount of death benefits greater than anticipated. The expense risk assumed is the risk that expenses incurred in issuing and administering the Policies will exceed the amounts realized from the administrative charges assessed against the Policies. The table below represents the range of effective annual rates for the charge for the year ended December 31, 2013: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Mortality and Expense Risk 0.00% - 0.90% -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The above referenced charge may not necessarily correspond to the costs associated with providing the services or benefits indicated by the designation of the charge or associated with a particular policy. For some Policies, a mortality and expense risk charge ranging from 0.30% to 0.90% is assessed through the redemption of units on a monthly basis and recorded as mortality and expense risk charges in the statements of changes in net assets of the applicable Investment Divisions. Other policy charges that are assessed through the redemption of units generally include: Cost of Insurance ("COI") charges, administrative charges, a policy fee, and charges for benefits provided by rider, if any. The COI charge is the primary charge under the policy for the death benefit provided by the Company which may vary by policy based on underwriting criteria. Administrative charges range from $0 to $15 and are assessed monthly. For some Policies, a surrender charge is imposed if the policy is partially or fully surrendered within the specified surrender charge period that ranges from $3.75 to $38.25 for every $1,000 of the policy face amount. Surrender charges for other Policies are equal to the lesser of the maximum surrender charge premium or the premiums actually paid in the first two policy years. For these policies, in the first policy year, the maximum surrender charge premium is 75% of the smoker federal guideline premium for the policy, assuming a level death benefit for the policy and any riders; and in the second and later policy years, it is 100% of the smoker federal guideline premium for the policy, assuming a level death benefit for the policy and any riders. The surrender charge cannot exceed 100% of the cumulative premiums paid in the first two policy years. If the policy is surrendered in the first two policy years, the Company will deduct 100% of the surrender charge, determined as described above. After the second policy year, the percentage the Company deducts declines until it reaches 0% at the end of the 15th policy year. Most policies offer optional benefits that can be added to the policy by rider. The charge for riders that provide life insurance benefits can range from $0.01 to $83.33 per $1,000 of coverage and the charge for riders providing benefits in the event of disability can range from $0.00 to $61.44 per $100 of the benefit provided. The above referenced charges are paid to the Company and are recorded as policy charges in the accompanying statements of changes in net assets of the applicable Investment Divisions for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011. MetLife Advisers, LLC, which acts in the capacity of investment adviser to the portfolios of the MIST and MSF Trusts, is an affiliate of the Company. 175 METROPOLITAN LIFE SEPARATE ACCOUNT UL OF METROPOLITAN LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS -- (CONTINUED) 6.

1 These amounts represent the dividends, excluding distributions of capital gains, received by the Investment Division from the underlying fund, portfolio, or series, net of management fees assessed by the fund manager, divided by the average net assets, regardless of share class, if any. These ratios exclude those expenses, such as mortality and expense risk charges, that are assessed against policy owner accounts either through reductions in the unit values or the redemption of units. The investment income ratio is calculated for each period indicated or from the effective date through the end of the reporting period. The recognition of investment income by the Investment Division is affected by the timing of the declaration of dividends by the underlying fund, portfolio, or series, in which the Investment Division invests. The investment income ratio is calculated as a weighted average ratio since the Investment Division may invest in two or more share classes, if any, within the underlying fund, portfolio, or series of the Trusts which may have unique investment income ratios. 2 These amounts represent annualized policy expenses of each of the applicable Investment Divisions, consisting primarily of mortality and expense risk charges, for each period indicated. The ratios include only those expenses that result in a direct reduction to unit values. Charges made directly to policy owner accounts through the redemption of units and expenses of the underlying fund, portfolio, or series have been excluded. 3 These amounts represent the total return for the period indicated, including changes in the value of the underlying fund, portfolio, or series, and expenses assessed through the reduction of unit values. These ratios do not include any expenses assessed through the redemption of units. The total return is calculated for each period indicated or from the effective date through the end of the reporting period. The total return is presented as a range of minimum to maximum returns, based on the minimum and maximum returns within each product grouping of the applicable Investment Division. 216 Item 8.

1 REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM To the Board of Directors and Stockholder of Metropolitan Life Insurance Company: We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Metropolitan Life Insurance Company and subsidiaries (the "Company") as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income (loss), equity, and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2013. Our audits also included the financial statement schedules listed in the Index to Consolidated Financial Statements, Notes and Schedules. These consolidated financial statements and financial statement schedules are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the consolidated financial statements and financial statement schedules based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the consolidated financial statements are free of material misstatement. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits included consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the consolidated financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, such consolidated financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Metropolitan Life Insurance Company and subsidiaries as of December 31, 2013 and 2012, and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2013, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Also, in our opinion, such financial statement schedules, when considered in relation to the basic consolidated financial statements taken as a whole, present fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein. /s/ DELOITTE & TOUCHE LLP New York, New York March 27, 2014 2 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.)

See accompanying notes to the consolidated financial statements. 10 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements 1. Business, Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies Business Metropolitan Life Insurance Company and its subsidiaries (collectively, "MLIC" or the "Company") is a leading provider of insurance, annuities and employee benefit programs throughout the United States. The Company offers life insurance and annuities to individuals, as well as group insurance and retirement & savings products and services to corporations and other institutions. Metropolitan Life Insurance Company is a wholly-owned subsidiary of MetLife, Inc. The Company is organized into three segments: Retail; Group, Voluntary & Worksite Benefits; and Corporate Benefit Funding. Basis of Presentation The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") requires management to adopt accounting policies and make estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements. In applying these policies and estimates, management makes subjective and complex judgments that frequently require assumptions about matters that are inherently uncertain. Many of these policies, estimates and related judgments are common in the insurance and financial services industries; others are specific to the Company's business and operations. Actual results could differ from estimates. Consolidation The accompanying consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Metropolitan Life Insurance Company and its subsidiaries, as well as partnerships and joint ventures in which the Company has control, and variable interest entities ("VIEs") for which the Company is the primary beneficiary. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. Since the Company is a member of a controlled group of affiliated companies, its results may not be indicative of those of a stand-alone entity. Discontinued Operations The results of operations of a component of the Company that has either been disposed of or is classified as held-for-sale are reported in discontinued operations if certain criteria are met. In order to qualify for a discontinued operation, the operations and cash flows of the component have been or will be eliminated from the ongoing operations of the Company, and the Company will not have any significant continuing involvement in the operations of the component after the disposal transaction. Separate Accounts Separate accounts are established in conformity with insurance laws and are generally not chargeable with liabilities that arise from any other business of the Company. Separate account assets are subject to general account claims only to the extent the value of such assets exceeds the separate account liabilities. The Company reports separately, as assets and liabilities, investments held in separate accounts and liabilities of the separate accounts if: . such separate accounts are legally recognized; 11 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 1. Business, Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) . assets supporting the contract liabilities are legally insulated from the Company's general account liabilities; . investments are directed by the contractholder; and . all investment performance, net of contract fees and assessments, is passed through to the contractholder. The Company reports separate account assets at their fair value, which is based on the estimated fair values of the underlying assets comprising the individual separate account portfolios. Investment performance (including investment income, net investment gains (losses) and changes in unrealized gains (losses)) and the corresponding amounts credited to contractholders of such separate accounts are offset within the same line in the statements of operations. Separate accounts credited with a contractual investment return are combined on a line-by-line basis with the Company's general account assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and the accounting for these investments is consistent with the methodologies described herein for similar financial instruments held within the general account. The Company's revenues reflect fees charged to the separate accounts, including mortality charges, risk charges, policy administration fees, investment management fees and surrender charges. Such fees are included in universal life and investment-type product policy fees in the statements of operations. Reclassifications Certain amounts in the prior years' consolidated financial statements and related footnotes thereto have been reclassified to conform with the current year presentation as discussed throughout the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies The following are the Company's significant accounting policies with references to notes providing additional information on such policies and critical accounting estimates relating to such policies. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Accounting Policy Note -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Insurance 4 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Deferred Policy Acquisition Costs, Value of Business Acquired and Other Policy-Related Intangibles 5 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Reinsurance 6 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Investments 8 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Derivatives 9 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fair Value 10 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Goodwill 11 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Employee Benefit Plans 15 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Income Tax 16 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Litigation Contingencies 17 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
12 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 1. Business, Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Insurance Future Policy Benefit Liabilities and Policyholder Account Balances The Company establishes liabilities for amounts payable under insurance policies. Generally, amounts are payable over an extended period of time and related liabilities are calculated as the present value of future expected benefits to be paid reduced by the present value of future expected premiums. Such liabilities are established based on methods and underlying assumptions in accordance with GAAP and applicable actuarial standards. Principal assumptions used in the establishment of liabilities for future policy benefits are mortality, morbidity, policy lapse, renewal, retirement, disability incidence, disability terminations, investment returns, inflation, expenses and other contingent events as appropriate to the respective product type. These assumptions are established at the time the policy is issued and are intended to estimate the experience for the period the policy benefits are payable. Utilizing these assumptions, liabilities are established on a block of business basis. For long duration insurance contracts, assumptions such as mortality, morbidity and interest rates are "locked in" upon the issuance of new business. However, significant adverse changes in experience on such contracts may require the establishment of premium deficiency reserves. Such reserves are determined based on the then current assumptions and do not include a provision for adverse deviation. Premium deficiency reserves may also be established for short duration contracts to provide for expected future losses. These reserves are based on actuarial estimates of the amount of loss inherent in that period, including losses incurred for which claims have not been reported. The provisions for unreported claims are calculated using studies that measure the historical length of time between the incurred date of a claim and its eventual reporting to the Company. Anticipated investment income is considered in the calculation of premium deficiency losses for short duration contracts. Liabilities for universal and variable life secondary guarantees and paid-up guarantees are determined by estimating the expected value of death benefits payable when the account balance is projected to be zero and recognizing those benefits ratably over the accumulation period based on total expected assessments. The assumptions used in estimating the secondary and paid-up guarantee liabilities are consistent with those used for amortizing deferred policy acquisition costs ("DAC"), and are thus subject to the same variability and risk as further discussed herein. The assumptions of investment performance and volatility for variable products are consistent with historical experience of appropriate underlying equity indices, such as the Standard & Poor's Ratings Services ("S&P") 500 Index. The benefits used in calculating the liabilities are based on the average benefits payable over a range of scenarios. The Company regularly reviews its estimates of liabilities for future policy benefits and compares them with its actual experience. Differences result in changes to the liability balances with related charges or credits to benefit expenses in the period in which the changes occur. Policyholder account balances ("PABs") relate to contract or contract features where the Company has no significant insurance risk. The Company issues certain variable annuity products with guaranteed minimum benefits that provide the policyholder a minimum return based on their initial deposit (i.e., the benefit base) less withdrawals. These guarantees are accounted for as insurance liabilities or as embedded derivatives depending on how and when 13 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 1. Business, Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) the benefit is paid. Specifically, a guarantee is accounted for as an embedded derivative if a guarantee is paid without requiring (i) the occurrence of specific insurable event, or (ii) the policyholder to annuitize. Alternatively, a guarantee is accounted for as an insurance liability if the guarantee is paid only upon either (i) the occurrence of a specific insurable event, or (ii) annuitization. In certain cases, a guarantee may have elements of both an insurance liability and an embedded derivative and in such cases the guarantee is split and accounted for under both models. Guarantees accounted for as insurance liabilities in future policy benefits include guaranteed minimum death benefits ("GMDBs"), the portion of guaranteed minimum income benefits ("GMIBs") that require annuitization, and the life-contingent portion of guaranteed minimum withdrawal benefits ("GMWBs"). Guarantees accounted for as embedded derivatives in PABs include the non life-contingent portion of GMWBs, guaranteed minimum accumulation benefits ("GMABs") and the portion of GMIBs that do not require annuitization. At inception, the Company attributes to the embedded derivative a portion of the projected future guarantee fees to be collected from the policyholder equal to the present value of projected future guaranteed benefits. Any additional fees represent "excess" fees and are reported in universal life and investment-type product policy fees. Other Policy-Related Balances Other policy-related balances include policy and contract claims, unearned revenue liabilities, premiums received in advance, policyholder dividends due and unpaid and policyholder dividends left on deposit. The liability for policy and contract claims generally relates to incurred but not reported death, disability, long-term care ("LTC") and dental claims, as well as claims which have been reported but not yet settled. The liability for these claims is based on the Company's estimated ultimate cost of settling all claims. The Company derives estimates for the development of incurred but not reported claims principally from analyses of historical patterns of claims by business line. The methods used to determine these estimates are continually reviewed. Adjustments resulting from this continuous review process and differences between estimates and payments for claims are recognized in policyholder benefits and claims expense in the period in which the estimates are changed or payments are made. The unearned revenue liability relates to universal life-type and investment-type products and represents policy charges for services to be provided in future periods. The charges are deferred as unearned revenue and amortized using the product's estimated gross profits and margins, similar to DAC as discussed further herein. Such amortization is recorded in universal life and investment-type product policy fees. The Company accounts for the prepayment of premiums on its individual life, group life and health contracts as premium received in advance and applies the cash received to premiums when due. Recognition of Insurance Revenues and Deposits Premiums related to traditional life and annuity policies with life contingencies are recognized as revenues when due from policyholders. Policyholder benefits and expenses are provided to recognize profits over the estimated lives of the insurance policies. When premiums are due over a significantly shorter period than the 14 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 1. Business, Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) period over which benefits are provided, any excess profit is deferred and recognized into earnings in a constant relationship to insurance in-force or, for annuities, the amount of expected future policy benefit payments. Premiums related to non-medical health and disability contracts are recognized on a pro rata basis over the applicable contract term. Deposits related to universal life-type and investment-type products are credited to PABs. Revenues from such contracts consist of fees for mortality, policy administration and surrender charges and are recorded in universal life and investment-type product policy fees in the period in which services are provided. Amounts that are charged to earnings include interest credited and benefit claims incurred in excess of related PABs. Premiums, policy fees, policyholder benefits and expenses are presented net of reinsurance. Deferred Policy Acquisition Costs, Value of Business Acquired and Other Policy-Related Intangibles The Company incurs significant costs in connection with acquiring new and renewal insurance business. Costs that are related directly to the successful acquisition or renewal of insurance contracts are capitalized as DAC. Such costs include: . incremental direct costs of contract acquisition, such as commissions; . the portion of an employee's total compensation and benefits related to time spent selling, underwriting or processing the issuance of new and renewal insurance business only with respect to actual policies acquired or renewed; and . other essential direct costs that would not have been incurred had a policy not been acquired or renewed. All other acquisition-related costs, including those related to general advertising and solicitation, market research, agent training, product development, unsuccessful sales and underwriting efforts, as well as all indirect costs, are expensed as incurred. Value of business acquired ("VOBA") is an intangible asset resulting from a business combination that represents the excess of book value over the estimated fair value of acquired insurance, annuity, and investment-type contracts in-force at the acquisition date. The estimated fair value of the acquired liabilities is based on projections, by each block of business, of future policy and contract charges, premiums, mortality and morbidity, separate account performance, surrenders, operating expenses, investment returns, nonperformance risk adjustment and other factors. Actual experience on the purchased business may vary from these projections. 15 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 1. Business, Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) DAC and VOBA are amortized as follows: ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Products: In proportion to the following over estimated lives of the contracts: ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- . Nonparticipating and Historic actual and expected future non-dividend-paying traditional gross premiums. contracts: . Term insurance . Nonparticipating whole life insurance . Traditional group life insurance . Non-medical health insurance ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- . Participating, dividend-paying Actual and expected future gross traditional contracts margins. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- . Fixed and variable universal life Actual and expected future gross contracts profits. . Fixed and variable deferred annuity contracts ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- See Note 5 for additional information on DAC and VOBA amortization. The recovery of DAC and VOBA is dependent upon the future profitability of the related business. DAC and VOBA are aggregated in the financial statements for reporting purposes. The Company generally has two different types of sales inducements which are included in other assets: (i) the policyholder receives a bonus whereby the policyholder's initial account balance is increased by an amount equal to a specified percentage of the customer's deposit; and (ii) the policyholder receives a higher interest rate using a dollar cost averaging method than would have been received based on the normal general account interest rate credited. The Company defers sales inducements and amortizes them over the life of the policy using the same methodology and assumptions used to amortize DAC. The amortization of sales inducements is included in policyholder benefits and claims. Each year, or more frequently if circumstances indicate a potential recoverability issue exists, the Company reviews deferred sales inducements to determine the recoverability of the asset. Value of distribution agreements acquired ("VODA") is reported in other assets and represents the present value of expected future profits associated with the expected future business derived from the distribution agreements acquired as part of a business combination. Value of customer relationships acquired ("VOCRA") is also reported in other assets and represents the present value of the expected future profits associated with the expected future business acquired through existing customers of the acquired company or business. The VODA and VOCRA associated with past business combinations are amortized over useful lives ranging from 10 to 30 years and such amortization is included in other expenses. Each year, or more frequently if circumstances indicate a possible impairment exists, the Company reviews VODA and VOCRA to determine whether the asset is impaired. Reinsurance For each of its reinsurance agreements, the Company determines whether the agreement provides indemnification against loss or liability relating to insurance risk in accordance with applicable accounting standards. Cessions under reinsurance agreements do not discharge the Company's obligations as the primary 16 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 1. Business, Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) insurer. The Company reviews all contractual features, including those that may limit the amount of insurance risk to which the reinsurer is subject or features that delay the timely reimbursement of claims. For reinsurance of existing in-force blocks of long-duration contracts that transfer significant insurance risk, the difference, if any, between the amounts paid (received), and the liabilities ceded (assumed) related to the underlying contracts is considered the net cost of reinsurance at the inception of the reinsurance agreement. The net cost of reinsurance is recorded as an adjustment to DAC when there is a gain at inception on the ceding entity and to other liabilities when there is a loss at inception. The net cost of reinsurance is recognized as a component of other expenses when there is a gain at inception and as policyholder benefits and claims when there is a loss and is subsequently amortized on a basis consistent with the methodology used for amortizing DAC related to the underlying reinsured contracts. Subsequent amounts paid (received) on the reinsurance of in-force blocks, as well as amounts paid (received) related to new business, are recorded as ceded (assumed) premiums; and ceded (assumed) premiums reinsurance and other receivables (future policy benefits) are established. For prospective reinsurance of short-duration contracts that meet the criteria for reinsurance accounting, amounts paid (received) are recorded as ceded (assumed) premiums and ceded (assumed) unearned premiums. Unearned premiums are reflected as a component of premiums, reinsurance and other receivables (future policy benefits). Such amounts are amortized through earned premiums over the remaining contract period in proportion to the amount of insurance protection provided. For retroactive reinsurance of short-duration contracts that meet the criteria of reinsurance accounting, amounts paid (received) in excess of the related insurance liabilities ceded (assumed) are recognized immediately as a loss and are reported in the appropriate line item within the statement of operations. Any gain on such retroactive agreement is deferred and is amortized as part of DAC, primarily using the recovery method. Amounts currently recoverable under reinsurance agreements are included in premiums, reinsurance and other receivables and amounts currently payable are included in other liabilities. Assets and liabilities relating to reinsurance agreements with the same reinsurer may be recorded net on the balance sheet, if a right of offset exists within the reinsurance agreement. In the event that reinsurers do not meet their obligations to the Company under the terms of the reinsurance agreements, reinsurance recoverable balances could become uncollectible. In such instances, reinsurance recoverable balances are stated net of allowances for uncollectible reinsurance. The funds withheld liability represents amounts withheld by the Company in accordance with the terms of the reinsurance agreements. The Company withholds the funds rather than transferring the underlying investments and, as a result, records funds withheld liability within other liabilities. The Company recognizes interest on funds withheld, included in other expenses, at rates defined by the terms of the agreement which may be contractually specified or directly related to the investment portfolio. Premiums, fees and policyholder benefits and claims include amounts assumed under reinsurance agreements and are net of reinsurance ceded. Amounts received from reinsurers for policy administration are reported in other revenues. With respect to GMIBs, a portion of the directly written GMIBs are accounted for as insurance liabilities, but the associated reinsurance agreements contain embedded derivatives. These embedded derivatives are included in premiums, reinsurance and other receivables with changes in estimated fair value reported in net derivative gains (losses). 17 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 1. Business, Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) If the Company determines that a reinsurance agreement does not expose the reinsurer to a reasonable possibility of a significant loss from insurance risk, the Company records the agreement using the deposit method of accounting. Deposits received are included in other liabilities and deposits made are included within premiums, reinsurance and other receivables. As amounts are paid or received, consistent with the underlying contracts, the deposit assets or liabilities are adjusted. Interest on such deposits is recorded as other revenues or other expenses, as appropriate. Periodically, the Company evaluates the adequacy of the expected payments or recoveries and adjusts the deposit asset or liability through other revenues or other expenses, as appropriate. Investments Net Investment Income and Net Investment Gains (Losses) Income on investments is reported within net investment income, unless otherwise stated herein. Gains and losses on sales of investments, impairment losses and changes in valuation allowances are reported within net investment gains (losses), unless otherwise stated herein. Fixed Maturity and Equity Securities The majority of the Company's fixed maturity and equity securities are classified as available-for-sale ("AFS") and are reported at their estimated fair value. Unrealized investment gains and losses on these securities are recorded as a separate component of other comprehensive income (loss) ("OCI"), net of policyholder-related amounts and deferred income taxes. All security transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Investment gains and losses on sales are determined on a specific identification basis. Interest income on fixed maturity securities is recognized when earned using an effective yield method giving effect to amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts. Prepayment fees are recognized when earned. Dividends on equity securities are recognized when declared. The Company periodically evaluates fixed maturity and equity securities for impairment. The assessment of whether impairments have occurred is based on management's case-by-case evaluation of the underlying reasons for the decline in estimated fair value, as well as an analysis of the gross unrealized losses by severity and/or age as described in Note 8 "-- Evaluation of AFS Securities for OTTI and Evaluating Temporarily Impaired AFS Securities." For fixed maturity securities in an unrealized loss position, an other-than-temporary impairment ("OTTI") is recognized in earnings when it is anticipated that the amortized cost will not be recovered. When either: (i) the Company has the intent to sell the security; or (ii) it is more likely than not that the Company will be required to sell the security before recovery, the OTTI recognized in earnings is the entire difference between the security's amortized cost and estimated fair value. If neither of these conditions exist, the difference between the amortized cost of the security and the present value of projected future cash flows expected to be collected is recognized as an OTTI in earnings ("credit loss"). If the estimated fair value is less than the present value of projected future cash flows expected to be collected, this portion of OTTI related to other-than-credit factors ("noncredit loss") is recorded in OCI. With respect to equity securities, the Company considers in its OTTI analysis its intent and ability to hold a particular equity security for a period of time sufficient to allow for the recovery of its estimated fair value to an 18 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 1. Business, Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) amount equal to or greater than cost. If a sale decision is made for an equity security and recovery to an amount at least equal to cost prior to the sale is not expected, the security will be deemed to be other-than-temporarily impaired in the period that the sale decision was made and an OTTI loss will be recorded in earnings. The OTTI loss recognized is the entire difference between the security's cost and its estimated fair value. Trading and Fair Value Option Securities Trading and fair value option securities are stated at estimated fair value and include investments for which the fair value option ("FVO") has been elected ("FVO Securities") and investments that are actively purchased and sold ("Actively Traded Securities"). Actively Traded Securities principally include fixed maturity securities and short sale agreement liabilities, which are included in other liabilities. FVO Securities include: . fixed maturity and equity securities held-for-investment by the general account to support asset and liability management strategies for certain insurance products ("FVO general account securities"); and . securities held by consolidated securitization entities ("CSEs") ("FVO securities held by CSEs"). Changes in estimated fair value of these securities are included in net investment income, except for certain securities included in FVO Securities where changes are included in net investment gains (losses). Mortgage Loans The Company disaggregates its mortgage loan investments into three portfolio segments: commercial, agricultural, and residential. The accounting policies that are applicable to all portfolio segments are presented below and the accounting policies related to each of the portfolio segments are included in Note 8. Mortgage Loans Held-For-Investment Mortgage loans held-for-investment are stated at unpaid principal balance, adjusted for any unamortized premium or discount, deferred fees or expenses, and are net of valuation allowances. Interest income and prepayment fees are recognized when earned. Interest income is recognized using an effective yield method giving effect to amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts. Also included in mortgage loans held-for-investment are residential mortgage loans for which the FVO was elected. These mortgage loans are stated at estimated fair value. Changes in estimated fair value are recognized in net investment income. Mortgage Loans Held-For-Sale Mortgage loans held-for-sale that were previously designated as held-for-investment, but now are designated as held-for-sale and mortgage loans originated with the intent to sell for which FVO was not elected, are stated at the lower of amortized cost or estimated fair value. 19 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 1. Business, Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Policy Loans Policy loans are stated at unpaid principal balances. Interest income on such loans is recorded as earned using the contractual interest rate. Generally, accrued interest is capitalized on the policy's anniversary date. Valuation allowances are not established for policy loans, as they are fully collateralized by the cash surrender value of the underlying insurance policies. Any unpaid principal or interest on the loan is deducted from the cash surrender value or the death benefit prior to settlement of the insurance policy. Real Estate Real estate held-for-investment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is provided on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the asset (typically 20 to 55 years). Rental income associated with such real estate is recognized on a straight-line basis over the term of the respective leases. The Company periodically reviews its real estate held-for-investment for impairment and tests for recoverability whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying value may not be recoverable and exceeds its estimated fair value. Properties whose carrying values are greater than their undiscounted cash flows are written down to their estimated fair value, which is generally computed using the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at a rate commensurate with the underlying risks. Real estate for which the Company commits to a plan to sell within one year and actively markets in its current condition for a reasonable price in comparison to its estimated fair value is classified as held-for-sale. Real estate held-for-sale is stated at the lower of depreciated cost or estimated fair value less expected disposition costs and is not depreciated. Real Estate Joint Ventures and Other Limited Partnership Interests The Company uses the equity method of accounting for investments in equity securities when it has significant influence or at least 20% interest and for investments in real estate joint ventures and other limited partnership interests ("investees") when it has more than a minor ownership interest or more than a minor influence over the investee's operations, but does not have a controlling financial interest. The Company generally recognizes its share of the investee's earnings on a three-month lag in instances where the investee's financial information is not sufficiently timely or when the investee's reporting period differs from the Company's reporting period. The Company uses the cost method of accounting for investments in which it has virtually no influence over the investee's operations. The Company recognizes distributions on cost method investments as earned or received. Because of the nature and structure of these cost method investments, they do not meet the characteristics of an equity security in accordance with applicable accounting standards. The Company routinely evaluates its equity method and cost method investments for impairment. For equity method investees, the Company considers financial and other information provided by the investee, other known information and inherent risks in the underlying investments, as well as future capital commitments, in determining whether an impairment has occurred. The Company considers its cost method investments for impairment when the carrying value of such investments exceeds the net asset value ("NAV"). The Company takes into consideration the severity and duration of this excess when determining whether the cost method investment is impaired. 20 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 1. Business, Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Short-term Investments Short-term investments include securities and other investments with remaining maturities of one year or less, but greater than three months, at the time of purchase and are stated at estimated fair value or amortized cost, which approximates estimated fair value. Short-term investments also include investments in affiliated money market pools. Other Invested Assets Other invested assets consist principally of the following: . Freestanding derivatives with positive estimated fair values are described in "-- Derivatives" below. . Tax credit and renewable energy partnerships derive a significant source of investment return in the form of income tax credits or other tax incentives. Where tax credits are guaranteed by a creditworthy third party, the investment is accounted for under the effective yield method. Otherwise, the investment is accounted for under the equity method. . Loans to affiliates are stated at unpaid principal balance, adjusted for any unamortized premium or discount. . Leveraged leases are recorded net of non-recourse debt. Income on leveraged leases is recognized by applying the leveraged lease's estimated rate of return to the net investment in the lease. The Company regularly reviews residual values for impairment. . Funds withheld represent a receivable for amounts contractually withheld by ceding companies in accordance with reinsurance agreements. The Company recognizes interest on funds withheld at rates defined by the terms of the agreement which may be contractually specified or directly related to the underlying investments. . Investments in joint ventures that engage in insurance underwriting activities are accounted for under the equity method. Securities Lending Program Securities lending transactions, whereby blocks of securities are loaned to third parties, primarily brokerage firms and commercial banks, are treated as financing arrangements and the associated liability is recorded at the amount of cash received. The Company obtains collateral at the inception of the loan, usually cash, in an amount generally equal to 102% of the estimated fair value of the securities loaned, and maintains it at a level greater than or equal to 100% for the duration of the loan. The Company is liable to return to the counterparties the cash collateral received. Security collateral on deposit from counterparties in connection with the securities lending transactions may not be sold or repledged, unless the counterparty is in default, and is not reflected in the financial statements. The Company monitors the estimated fair value of the securities loaned on a daily basis and additional collateral is obtained as necessary. Income and expenses associated with securities lending transactions are reported as investment income and investment expense, respectively, within net investment income. 21 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) Derivatives Freestanding Derivatives Freestanding derivatives are carried in the Company's balance sheets either as assets within other invested assets or as liabilities within other liabilities at estimated fair value. The Company does not offset the fair value amounts recognized for derivatives executed with the same counterparty under the same master netting agreement. Accruals on derivatives are generally recorded in accrued investment income or within other liabilities. However, accruals that are not scheduled to settle within one year are included with the derivatives carrying value in other invested assets or other liabilities. If a derivative is not designated as an accounting hedge or its use in managing risk does not qualify for hedge accounting, changes in the estimated fair value of the derivative are reported in net derivative gains (losses) except as follows: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Statement of Operations Presentation: Derivative: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Net investment income . Economic hedges of equity method investments in joint ventures . All derivatives held in relation to trading portfolios ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hedge Accounting To qualify for hedge accounting, at the inception of the hedging relationship, the Company formally documents its risk management objective and strategy for undertaking the hedging transaction, as well as its designation of the hedge. Hedge designation and financial statement presentation of changes in estimated fair value of the hedging derivatives are as follows: . Fair value hedge (a hedge of the estimated fair value of a recognized asset or liability) -- in net derivative gains (losses), consistent with the change in fair value of the hedged item attributable to the designated risk being hedged. . Cash flow hedge (a hedge of a forecasted transaction or of the variability of cash flows to be received or paid related to a recognized asset or liability) -- effectiveness in OCI (deferred gains or losses on the derivative are reclassified into the statement of operations when the Company's earnings are affected by the variability in cash flows of the hedged item); ineffectiveness in net derivative gains (losses). The change in estimated fair values of the hedging derivatives are exclusive of any accruals that are separately reported in the statement of operations within interest income or interest expense to match the location of the hedged item. In its hedge documentation, the Company sets forth how the hedging instrument is expected to hedge the designated risks related to the hedged item and sets forth the method that will be used to retrospectively and prospectively assess the hedging instrument's effectiveness and the method that will be used to measure 22 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 1. Business, Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) ineffectiveness. A derivative designated as a hedging instrument must be assessed as being highly effective in offsetting the designated risk of the hedged item. Hedge effectiveness is formally assessed at inception and at least quarterly throughout the life of the designated hedging relationship. Assessments of hedge effectiveness and measurements of ineffectiveness are also subject to interpretation and estimation and different interpretations or estimates may have a material effect on the amount reported in net income. The Company discontinues hedge accounting prospectively when: (i) it is determined that the derivative is no longer highly effective in offsetting changes in the estimated fair value or cash flows of a hedged item; (ii) the derivative expires, is sold, terminated, or exercised; (iii) it is no longer probable that the hedged forecasted transaction will occur; or (iv) the derivative is de-designated as a hedging instrument. When hedge accounting is discontinued because it is determined that the derivative is not highly effective in offsetting changes in the estimated fair value or cash flows of a hedged item, the derivative continues to be carried in the balance sheets at its estimated fair value, with changes in estimated fair value recognized in net derivative gains (losses). The carrying value of the hedged recognized asset or liability under a fair value hedge is no longer adjusted for changes in its estimated fair value due to the hedged risk, and the cumulative adjustment to its carrying value is amortized into income over the remaining life of the hedged item. Provided the hedged forecasted transaction is still probable of occurrence, the changes in estimated fair value of derivatives recorded in OCI related to discontinued cash flow hedges are released into the statements of operations when the Company's earnings are affected by the variability in cash flows of the hedged item. When hedge accounting is discontinued because it is no longer probable that the forecasted transactions will occur on the anticipated date or within two months of that date, the derivative continues to be carried in the balance sheets at its estimated fair value, with changes in estimated fair value recognized currently in net derivative gains (losses). Deferred gains and losses of a derivative recorded in OCI pursuant to the discontinued cash flow hedge of a forecasted transaction that is no longer probable are recognized immediately in net derivative gains (losses). In all other situations in which hedge accounting is discontinued, the derivative is carried at its estimated fair value in the balance sheets, with changes in its estimated fair value recognized in the current period as net derivative gains (losses). Embedded Derivatives The Company sells variable annuities and issues certain insurance products and investment contracts and is a party to certain reinsurance agreements that have embedded derivatives. The Company assesses each identified embedded derivative to determine whether it is required to be bifurcated. The embedded derivative is bifurcated from the host contract and accounted for as a freestanding derivative if: . the combined instrument is not accounted for in its entirety at fair value with changes in fair value recorded in earnings; . the terms of the embedded derivative are not clearly and closely related to the economic characteristics of the host contract; and . a separate instrument with the same terms as the embedded derivative would qualify as a derivative instrument. 23 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 1. Business, Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Such embedded derivatives are carried in the balance sheets at estimated fair value with the host contract and changes in their estimated fair value are generally reported in net derivative gains (losses). If the Company is unable to properly identify and measure an embedded derivative for separation from its host contract, the entire contract is carried on the balance sheet at estimated fair value, with changes in estimated fair value recognized in the current period in net investment gains (losses) or net investment income. Additionally, the Company may elect to carry an entire contract on the balance sheet at estimated fair value, with changes in estimated fair value recognized in the current period in net investment gains (losses) or net investment income if that contract contains an embedded derivative that requires bifurcation. At inception, the Company attributes to the embedded derivative a portion of the projected future guarantee fees to be collected from the policyholder equal to the present value of projected future guaranteed benefits. Any additional fees represent "excess" fees and are reported in universal life and investment-type product policy fees. Fair Value Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (an exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. In most cases, the exit price and the transaction (or entry) price will be the same at initial recognition. Subsequent to initial recognition, fair values are based on unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that are readily and regularly obtainable. When such quoted prices are not available, fair values are based on quoted prices in markets that are not active, quoted prices for similar but not identical assets or liabilities, or other observable inputs. If these inputs are not available, or observable inputs are not determinable, unobservable inputs and/or adjustments to observable inputs requiring management judgment are used to determine the estimated fair value of assets and liabilities. Goodwill Goodwill, which is included in other assets, represents the future economic benefits arising from net assets acquired in a business combination that are not individually identified and recognized. Goodwill is calculated as the excess of cost over the estimated fair value of such net assets acquired, is not amortized, and is tested for impairment based on a fair value approach at least annually or more frequently if events or circumstances indicate that there may be justification for conducting an interim test. The Company performs its annual goodwill impairment testing during the third quarter of each year based upon data as of the close of the second quarter. Goodwill associated with a business acquisition is not tested for impairment during the year the business is acquired unless there is a significant identified impairment event. The impairment test is performed at the reporting unit level, which is the operating segment or a business one level below the operating segment, if discrete financial information is prepared and regularly reviewed by management at that level. For purposes of goodwill impairment testing, if the carrying value of a reporting unit exceeds its estimated fair value, there may be an indication of impairment. In such instances, the implied fair value of the goodwill is determined in the same manner as the amount of goodwill that would be determined in a business combination. The excess of the carrying value of goodwill over the implied fair value of goodwill would be recognized as an impairment and recorded as a charge against net income. 24 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 1. Business, Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) On an ongoing basis, the Company evaluates potential triggering events that may affect the estimated fair value of the Company's reporting units to assess whether any goodwill impairment exists. Deteriorating or adverse market conditions for certain reporting units may have an impact on the estimated fair value of these reporting units and could result in future impairments of goodwill. Employee Benefit Plans The Company sponsors and administers various qualified and non-qualified defined benefit pension plans and other postretirement employee benefit plans covering eligible employees and sales representatives who meet specified eligibility requirements of the sponsor and its participating affiliates. A December 31 measurement date is used for all of the Company's defined benefit pension and other postretirement benefit plans. The Company recognizes the funded status of the projected benefit obligation ("PBO") for pension benefits and the accumulated postretirement benefit obligation ("APBO") for other postretirement benefits for each of its plans. The Company recognizes an expense for differences between actual experience and estimates over the average future service period of participants. The actuarial gains (losses), prior service costs and credits not yet included in net periodic benefit costs are charged to accumulated OCI ("AOCI"), net of income tax. The Company also sponsors defined contribution plans for substantially all U.S. employees under which a portion of participant contributions is matched. Applicable matching contributions are made each payroll period. Accordingly, the Company recognizes compensation cost for current matching contributions. As all contributions are transferred currently as earned to the defined contribution plans, no liability for matching contributions is recognized in the balance sheets. Income Tax Metropolitan Life Insurance Company and all of its includable subsidiaries join with MetLife, Inc. and its includable subsidiaries in filing a consolidated U.S. life and non-life federal income tax return in accordance with the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"). Current taxes (and the benefits of tax attributes such as losses) are allocated to Metropolitan Life Insurance Company and its subsidiaries under the consolidated tax return regulations and a tax sharing agreement. Under the consolidated tax return regulations, MetLife, Inc. has elected the "percentage method" (and 100 percent under such method) of reimbursing companies for tax attributes such as losses. As a result, 100 percent of tax attributes such as losses are reimbursed by MetLife, Inc. to the extent that consolidated federal income tax of the consolidated federal tax return group is reduced in a year by tax attributes such as losses. Profitable subsidiaries pay to MetLife, Inc. each year the federal income tax which such profitable subsidiary would have paid that year based upon that year's taxable income. If Metropolitan Life Insurance Company or its includable subsidiaries has current or prior deductions and credits (including but not limited to losses) which reduce the consolidated tax liability of the consolidated federal tax return group, the deductions and credits are characterized as realized (or realizable) by Metropolitan Life Insurance Company and its includable subsidiaries when those tax attributes are realized (or realizable) by the consolidated federal tax return group, even if Metropolitan Life Insurance Company or its includable subsidiaries would not have realized the attributes on a stand-alone basis under a "wait and see" method. The Company's accounting for income taxes represents management's best estimate of various events and transactions. 25 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 1. Business, Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Deferred tax assets and liabilities resulting from temporary differences between the financial reporting and tax bases of assets and liabilities are measured at the balance sheet date using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years the temporary differences are expected to reverse. The realization of deferred tax assets depends upon the existence of sufficient taxable income within the carryback or carryforward periods under the tax law in the applicable tax jurisdiction. Valuation allowances are established when management determines, based on available information, that it is more likely than not that deferred income tax assets will not be realized. Factors in management's determination include the performance of the business and its ability to generate capital gains. Significant judgment is required in determining whether valuation allowances should be established, as well as the amount of such allowances. When making such determination, consideration is given to, among other things, the following: . future taxable income exclusive of reversing temporary differences and carryforwards; . future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences; . taxable income in prior carryback years; and . tax planning strategies. The Company may be required to change its provision for income taxes in certain circumstances. Examples of such circumstances include when estimates used in determining valuation allowances on deferred tax assets significantly change or when receipt of new information indicates the need for adjustment in valuation allowances. Additionally, future events, such as changes in tax laws, tax regulations, or interpretations of such laws or regulations, could have an impact on the provision for income tax and the effective tax rate. Any such changes could significantly affect the amounts reported in the financial statements in the year these changes occur. The Company determines whether it is more likely than not that a tax position will be sustained upon examination by the appropriate taxing authorities before any part of the benefit can be recorded in the financial statements. A tax position is measured at the largest amount of benefit that is greater than 50% likely of being realized upon settlement. Unrecognized tax benefits due to tax uncertainties that do not meet the threshold are included within other liabilities and are charged to earnings in the period that such determination is made. The Company classifies interest recognized as interest expense and penalties recognized as a component of income tax. Litigation Contingencies The Company is a party to a number of legal actions and is involved in a number of regulatory investigations. Given the inherent unpredictability of these matters, it is difficult to estimate the impact on the Company's financial position. Liabilities are established when it is probable that a loss has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Except as otherwise disclosed in Note 17, legal costs are recognized as incurred. On a quarterly and annual basis, the Company reviews relevant information with respect to liabilities for litigation, regulatory investigations and litigation-related contingencies to be reflected in the Company's financial statements. 26 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 1. Business, Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Other Accounting Policies Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests Redeemable noncontrolling interests associated with certain joint ventures and partially-owned consolidated subsidiaries are reported in the temporary section of the balance sheet. Stock-Based Compensation Stock-based compensation recognized in the Company's consolidated results of operations is allocated from MetLife, Inc. The accounting policies described below represent those that MetLife, Inc. applies in determining such allocated expenses. MetLife, Inc. grants certain employees and directors stock-based compensation awards under various plans that are subject to specific vesting conditions. With the exception of performance shares granted in 2013 which are remeasured quarterly, the cost of all stock-based transactions is measured at fair value at grant date and recognized over the period during which a grantee is required to provide services in exchange for the award. Although the terms of MetLife, Inc.'s stock-based plans do not accelerate vesting upon retirement, or the attainment of retirement eligibility, the requisite service period subsequent to attaining such eligibility is considered nonsubstantive. Accordingly, MetLife, Inc. recognizes compensation expense related to stock-based awards over the shorter of the requisite service period or the period to attainment of retirement eligibility. An estimation of future forfeitures of stock-based awards is incorporated into the determination of compensation expense when recognizing expense over the requisite service period. Cash and Cash Equivalents The Company considers all highly liquid securities and other investments purchased with an original or remaining maturity of three months or less at the date of purchase to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents are stated at amortized cost, which approximates estimated fair value. Property, Equipment, Leasehold Improvements and Computer Software Property, equipment and leasehold improvements, which are included in other assets, are stated at cost, less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation is determined using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets, as appropriate. The estimated life is generally 40 years for company occupied real estate property, from one to 25 years for leasehold improvements, and from three to seven years for all other property and equipment. The cost basis of the property, equipment and leasehold improvements was $1.2 billion and $1.7 billion at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Accumulated depreciation and amortization of property, equipment and leasehold improvements was $667 million and $1.0 billion at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Related depreciation and amortization expense was $115 million, $121 million and $118 million for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Computer software, which is included in other assets, is stated at cost, less accumulated amortization. Purchased software costs, as well as certain internal and external costs incurred to develop internal-use computer software during the application development stage, are capitalized. Such costs are amortized 27 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 1. Business, Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) generally over a four-year period using the straight-line method. The cost basis of computer software was $1.0 billion and $902 million at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Accumulated amortization of capitalized software was $739 million and $611 million at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Related amortization expense was $144 million, $143 million and $145 million for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Other Revenues Other revenues include, in addition to items described elsewhere herein, advisory fees, broker-dealer commissions and fees, administrative service fees, and changes in account value relating to corporate-owned life insurance ("COLI"). Such fees and commissions are recognized in the period in which services are performed. Under certain COLI contracts, if the Company reports certain unlikely adverse results in its financial statements, withdrawals would not be immediately available and would be subject to market value adjustment, which could result in a reduction of the account value. Policyholder Dividends Policyholder dividends are approved annually by Metropolitan Life Insurance Company and its insurance subsidiaries' boards of directors. The aggregate amount of policyholder dividends is related to actual interest, mortality, morbidity and expense experience for the year, as well as management's judgment as to the appropriate level of statutory surplus to be retained by Metropolitan Life Insurance Company and its insurance subsidiaries. Foreign Currency Assets, liabilities and operations of foreign affiliates and subsidiaries, if any, are recorded based on the functional currency of each entity. The determination of the functional currency is made based on the appropriate economic and management indicators. The local currencies of foreign operations are the functional currencies. Assets and liabilities of foreign affiliates and subsidiaries, if any, are translated from the functional currency to U.S. dollars at the exchange rates in effect at each year-end and income and expense accounts are translated at the average exchange rates during the year. The resulting translation adjustments are charged or credited directly to OCI, net of applicable taxes. Gains and losses from foreign currency transactions, including the effect of re-measurement of monetary assets and liabilities to the appropriate functional currency, are reported as part of net investment gains (losses) in the period in which they occur. Adoption of New Accounting Pronouncements Effective July 17, 2013, the Company adopted new guidance regarding derivatives that permits the Fed Funds Effective Swap Rate (or Overnight Index Swap Rate) to be used as a U.S. benchmark interest rate for hedge accounting purposes, in addition to the United States Treasury and London Interbank Offered Rate ("LIBOR"). Also, this new guidance removes the restriction on using different benchmark rates for similar hedges. The new guidance did not have a material impact on the financial statements upon adoption, but may impact the selection of benchmark interest rates for hedging relationships in the future. 28 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 1. Business, Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) Effective January 1, 2013, the Company adopted new guidance regarding comprehensive income that requires an entity to provide information about the amounts reclassified out of AOCI by component. In addition, an entity is required to present, either on the face of the statement where net income is presented or in the notes, significant amounts reclassified out of AOCI by the respective line items of net income but only if the amount reclassified is required under GAAP to be reclassified to net income in its entirety in the same reporting period. For other amounts that are not required under GAAP to be reclassified in their entirety to net income, an entity is required to cross-reference to other disclosures required under GAAP that provide additional detail about those amounts. The adoption was prospectively applied and resulted in additional disclosures in Note 13. Effective January 1, 2013, the Company adopted new guidance regarding balance sheet offsetting disclosures which requires an entity to disclose information about offsetting and related arrangements for derivatives, including bifurcated embedded derivatives, repurchase and reverse repurchase agreements, and securities borrowing and lending transactions, to enable users of its financial statements to understand the effects of those arrangements on its financial position. Entities are required to disclose both gross information and net information about both instruments and transactions eligible for offset in the statement of financial position and instruments and transactions subject to an agreement similar to a master netting arrangement. The adoption was retrospectively applied and resulted in additional disclosures related to derivatives in Note 9. On January 1, 2012, the Company adopted new guidance regarding accounting for DAC, which was retrospectively applied. The guidance specifies that only costs related directly to successful acquisition of new or renewal contracts can be capitalized as DAC; all other acquisition-related costs must be expensed as incurred. As a result, certain sales manager compensation and administrative cost previously capitalized by the Company will no longer be deferred. On January 1, 2012, the Company adopted new guidance regarding comprehensive income, which was retrospectively applied, that provides companies with the option to present the total of comprehensive income, components of net income, and the components of OCI either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements in annual financial statements. The standard eliminates the option to present components of OCI as part of the statement of changes in stockholders' equity. The Company adopted the two-statement approach for annual financial statements. Effective January 1, 2012, the Company adopted new guidance on goodwill impairment testing that simplifies how an entity tests goodwill for impairment. This new guidance allows an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying value as a basis for determining whether it needs to perform the quantitative two-step goodwill impairment test. Only if an entity determines, based on qualitative assessment, that it is more likely than not that a reporting unit's fair value is less than its carrying value will it be required to calculate the fair value of the reporting unit. The qualitative assessment is optional and the Company is permitted to bypass it for any reporting unit in any period and begin its impairment analysis with the quantitative calculation. The Company is permitted to perform the qualitative assessment in any subsequent period. Effective January 1, 2012, the Company adopted new guidance regarding fair value measurements that establishes common requirements for measuring fair value and for disclosing information about fair value measurements in accordance with GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards. Some of the amendments clarify the Financial Accounting Standards Board's ("FASB") intent on the application of existing 29 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 1. Business, Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (continued) fair value measurement requirements. Other amendments change a particular principle or requirement for measuring fair value or for disclosing information about fair value measurements. The adoption did not have a material impact on the Company's financial statements other than the expanded disclosures in Note 10. Future Adoption of New Accounting Pronouncements In March 2013, the FASB issued new guidance regarding foreign currency (Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2013-05, Foreign Currency Matters (Topic 830): Parent's Accounting for the Cumulative Translation Adjustment upon Derecognition of Certain Subsidiaries or Groups of Assets within a Foreign Entity or of an Investment in a Foreign Entity), effective prospectively for fiscal years and interim reporting periods within those years beginning after December 15, 2013. The amendments require an entity that ceases to have a controlling financial interest in a subsidiary or group of assets within a foreign entity to apply the guidance in Subtopic 830-30, Foreign Currency Matters -- Translation of Financial Statements, to release any related cumulative translation adjustment into net income. Accordingly, the cumulative translation adjustment should be released into net income only if the sale or transfer results in the complete or substantially complete liquidation of the foreign entity in which the subsidiary or group of assets had resided. For an equity method investment that is a foreign entity, the partial sale guidance in section 830-30-40, Derecognition, still applies. As such, a pro rata portion of the cumulative translation adjustment should be released into net income upon a partial sale of such an equity method investment. The Company does not expect the adoption of this new guidance to have a material impact on its financial statements. In February 2013, the FASB issued new guidance regarding liabilities (ASU 2013-04, Liabilities (Topic 405): Obligations Resulting from Joint and Several Liability Arrangements for Which the Total Amount of the Obligation Is Fixed at the Reporting Date), effective retrospectively for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2013 and interim periods within those years. The amendments require an entity to measure obligations resulting from joint and several liability arrangements for which the total amount of the obligation within the scope of the guidance is fixed at the reporting date, as the sum of the amount the reporting entity agreed to pay on the basis of its arrangement among its co-obligors and any additional amount the reporting entity expects to pay on behalf of its co-obligors. In addition, the amendments require an entity to disclose the nature and amount of the obligation, as well as other information about the obligation. The Company does not expect the adoption of this new guidance to have a material impact on its financial statements. In July 2011, the FASB issued new guidance on other expenses (ASU 2011-06, Other Expenses (Topic 720): Fees Paid to the Federal Government by Health Insurers), effective for calendar years beginning after December 31, 2013. The objective of this standard is to address how health insurers should recognize and classify in their income statements fees mandated by the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, as amended by the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act. The amendments in this standard specify that the liability for the fee should be estimated and recorded in full once the entity provides qualifying health insurance in the applicable calendar year in which the fee is payable with a corresponding deferred cost that is amortized to expense using the straight-line method of allocation unless another method better allocates the fee over the calendar year that it is payable. In accordance with the adoption of the new accounting pronouncement, on January 1, 2014, the Company recorded $55 million in other liabilities, and a corresponding deferred cost, in other assets. 30 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.)

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 2. Segment Information (continued) Financial Measures and Segment Accounting Policies Operating earnings is the measure of segment profit or loss the Company uses to evaluate segment performance and allocate resources. Consistent with GAAP guidance for segment reporting, operating earnings is the Company's measure of segment performance and is reported below. Operating earnings should not be viewed as a substitute for income (loss) from continuing operations, net of income tax. The Company believes the presentation of operating earnings as the Company measures it for management purposes enhances the understanding of its performance by highlighting the results of operations and the underlying profitability drivers of the business. Operating earnings is defined as operating revenues less operating expenses, both net of income tax. Operating revenues excludes net investment gains (losses) and net derivative gains (losses). The following additional adjustments are made to GAAP revenues, in the line items indicated, in calculating operating revenues: . Universal life and investment-type product policy fees excludes the amortization of unearned revenue related to net investment gains (losses) and net derivative gains (losses) and certain variable annuity GMIB fees ("GMIB Fees"); and . Net investment income: (i) includes amounts for scheduled periodic settlement payments and amortization of premium on derivatives that are hedges of investments or that are used to replicate certain investments, but do not qualify for hedge accounting treatment, (ii) includes income from discontinued real estate operations, (iii) excludes post-tax operating earnings adjustments relating to insurance joint ventures accounted for under the equity method, and (iv) excludes certain amounts related to securitization entities that are VIEs consolidated under GAAP. The following adjustments are made to GAAP expenses, in the line items indicated, in calculating operating expenses: . Policyholder benefits and claims and policyholder dividends excludes: (i) changes in the policyholder dividend obligation related to net investment gains (losses) and net derivative gains (losses), (ii) amounts associated with periodic crediting rate adjustments based on the total return of a contractually referenced pool of assets, (iii) benefits and hedging costs related to GMIBs ("GMIB Costs"), and (iv) market value adjustments associated with surrenders or terminations of contracts ("Market Value Adjustments"); . Interest credited to policyholder account balances includes adjustments for scheduled periodic settlement payments and amortization of premium on derivatives that are hedges of PABs but do not qualify for hedge accounting treatment; . Amortization of DAC and VOBA excludes amounts related to: (i) net investment gains (losses) and net derivative gains (losses), (ii) GMIB Fees and GMIB Costs, and (iii) Market Value Adjustments; . Interest expense on debt excludes certain amounts related to securitization entities that are VIEs consolidated under GAAP; and . Other expenses excludes costs related to noncontrolling interests and goodwill impairments. 32 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 2. Segment Information (continued) Set forth in the tables below is certain financial information with respect to the Company's segments, as well as Corporate & Other, for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011 and at December 31, 2013 and 2012. The segment accounting policies are the same as those used to prepare the Company's consolidated financial statements, except for operating earnings adjustments as defined above. In addition, segment accounting policies include the method of capital allocation described below. Economic capital is an internally developed risk capital model, the purpose of which is to measure the risk in the business and to provide a basis upon which capital is deployed. The economic capital model accounts for the unique and specific nature of the risks inherent in MetLife, Inc.'s and the Company's business. MetLife, Inc.'s economic capital model aligns segment allocated equity with emerging standards and consistent risk principles. The model applies statistics-based risk evaluation principles to the material risks to which the Company is exposed. These consistent risk principles include calibrating required economic capital shock factors to a specific confidence level and time horizon and applying an industry standard method for the inclusion of diversification benefits among risk types. Segment net investment income is credited or charged based on the level of allocated equity; however, changes in allocated equity do not impact the Company's consolidated net investment income, operating earnings or income (loss) from continuing operations, net of income tax. Net investment income is based upon the actual results of each segment's specifically identifiable investment portfolios adjusted for allocated equity. Other costs are allocated to each of the segments based upon: (i) a review of the nature of such costs; (ii) time studies analyzing the amount of employee compensation costs incurred by each segment; and (iii) cost estimates included in the Company's product pricing. 33 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.)

Participating policies represented 28%, 29% and 32% of gross life insurance premiums for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. PABs are equal to: (i) policy account values, which consist of an accumulation of gross premium payments (ii) credited interest, ranging from 1% to 13%, less expenses, mortality charges and withdrawals; and (iii) fair value adjustments relating to business combinations. 38 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 4. Insurance (continued) Guarantees The Company issues variable annuity products with guaranteed minimum benefits. The non-life contingent portion of GMWBs and the portion of certain GMIBs that does not require annuitization are accounted for as embedded derivatives in PABs and are further discussed in Note 9. Guarantees accounted for as insurance liabilities include: Guarantee: Measurement Assumptions: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- GMDBs . A return of purchase payment upon Present value of expected death benefits in death even if the account value is excess of the projected account balance reduced to zero. recognizing the excess ratably over the accumulation period based on the present value of total expected assessments. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- .

39 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 4. Insurance (continued) The Company also issues annuity contracts that apply a lower rate on funds deposited if the contractholder elects to surrender the contract for cash and a higher rate if the contractholder elects to annuitize ("two tier annuities"). These guarantees include benefits that are payable in the event of death, maturity or at annuitization. Additionally, the Company issues universal and variable life contracts where the Company contractually guarantees to the contractholder a secondary guarantee or a guaranteed paid-up benefit. Information regarding the liabilities for guarantees (excluding base policy liabilities and embedded derivatives) relating to annuity and universal and variable life contracts was as follows:

40 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 4. Insurance (continued) Account balances of contracts with insurance guarantees were invested in separate account asset classes as follows at:

Based on the type of guarantee, the Company defines net amount at risk as listed below. These amounts include direct business, but exclude offsets from hedging or reinsurance, if any. Variable Annuity Guarantees In the Event of Death Defined as the death benefit less the total contract account value, as of the balance sheet date. It represents the amount of the claim that the Company would incur if death claims were filed on all contracts on the balance sheet date and includes any additional contractual claims associated with riders purchased to assist with covering income taxes payable upon death. At Annuitization Defined as the amount (if any) that would be required to be added to the total contract account value to purchase a lifetime income stream, based on current annuity rates, equal to the minimum amount provided under the guaranteed benefit. This amount represents the Company's potential economic exposure to such guarantees in the event all contractholders were to annuitize on the balance sheet date, even though the contracts contain terms that allow annuitization of the guaranteed amount only after the 10th anniversary of the contract, which not all contractholders have achieved. Two Tier Annuities Defined as the excess of the upper tier, adjusted for a profit margin, less the lower tier, as of the balance sheet date. These contracts apply a lower rate on funds if the contractholder elects to surrender the contract for cash and a higher rate if the contractholder elects to annuitize. Universal and Variable Life Contracts Defined as the guarantee amount less the account value, as of the balance sheet date. It represents the amount of the claim that the Company would incur if death claims were filed on all contracts on the balance sheet date. 41 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.)

-------- (1)The Company's annuity and life contracts with guarantees may offer more than one type of guarantee in each contract. Therefore, the amounts listed above may not be mutually exclusive. Obligations Under Funding Agreements The Company issues fixed and floating rate funding agreements, which are denominated in either U.S. dollars or foreign currencies, to certain special purpose entities ("SPEs") that have issued either debt securities or commercial paper for which payment of interest and principal is secured by such funding agreements. During the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, the Company issued $26.8 billion, $24.7 billion and $27.4 billion, respectively, and repaid $25.1 billion, $21.5 billion and $28.2 billion, respectively, of such funding agreements. At December 31, 2013 and 2012, liabilities for funding agreements outstanding, which are included in PABs, were $26.0 billion and $23.9 billion, respectively. 42 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.)

-------- (1)During 2013, 2012 and 2011, as a result of changes in estimates of insured events in the respective prior year, claims and claim adjustment expenses associated with prior years decreased due to a reduction in prior year dental and accidental death and dismemberment claims and improved loss ratio for non-medical health claim liabilities. Separate Accounts Separate account assets and liabilities include two categories of account types: pass-through separate accounts totaling $83.1 billion and $71.7 billion at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, for which the policyholder assumes all investment risk, and separate accounts for which the Company contractually guarantees either a minimum return or account value to the policyholder which totaled $51.7 billion and $49.3 billion at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The latter category consisted primarily of funding agreements and participating close-out contracts. The average interest rate credited on these contracts was 2.23% and 2.80% at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. For the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, there were no investment gains (losses) on transfers of assets from the general account to the separate accounts. 44 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 5. Deferred Policy Acquisition Costs, Value of Business Acquired and Other Policy-Related Intangibles See Note 1 for a description of capitalized acquisition costs. Nonparticipating and Non-Dividend-Paying Traditional Contracts The Company amortizes DAC and VOBA related to these contracts (term insurance, nonparticipating whole life insurance, traditional group life insurance, and non-medical health insurance) over the appropriate premium paying period in proportion to the historic actual and expected future gross premiums that were set at contract issue. The expected premiums are based upon the premium requirement of each policy and assumptions for mortality, morbidity, persistency and investment returns at policy issuance, or policy acquisition (as it relates to VOBA), include provisions for adverse deviation, and are consistent with the assumptions used to calculate future policyholder benefit liabilities. These assumptions are not revised after policy issuance or acquisition unless the DAC or VOBA balance is deemed to be unrecoverable from future expected profits. Absent a premium deficiency, variability in amortization after policy issuance or acquisition is caused only by variability in premium volumes. Participating, Dividend-Paying Traditional Contracts The Company amortizes DAC and VOBA related to these contracts over the estimated lives of the contracts in proportion to actual and expected future gross margins. The amortization includes interest based on rates in effect at inception or acquisition of the contracts. The future gross margins are dependent principally on investment returns, policyholder dividend scales, mortality, persistency, expenses to administer the business, creditworthiness of reinsurance counterparties and certain economic variables, such as inflation. For participating contracts within the closed block (dividend-paying traditional contracts) future gross margins are also dependent upon changes in the policyholder dividend obligation. See Note 7. Of these factors, the Company anticipates that investment returns, expenses, persistency and other factor changes, as well as policyholder dividend scales are reasonably likely to impact significantly the rate of DAC and VOBA amortization. Each reporting period, the Company updates the estimated gross margins with the actual gross margins for that period. When the actual gross margins change from previously estimated gross margins, the cumulative DAC and VOBA amortization is re-estimated and adjusted by a cumulative charge or credit to current operations. When actual gross margins exceed those previously estimated, the DAC and VOBA amortization will increase, resulting in a current period charge to earnings. The opposite result occurs when the actual gross margins are below the previously estimated gross margins. Each reporting period, the Company also updates the actual amount of business in-force, which impacts expected future gross margins. When expected future gross margins are below those previously estimated, the DAC and VOBA amortization will increase, resulting in a current period charge to earnings. The opposite result occurs when the expected future gross margins are above the previously estimated expected future gross margins. Each period, the Company also reviews the estimated gross margins for each block of business to determine the recoverability of DAC and VOBA balances. Fixed and Variable Universal Life Contracts and Fixed and Variable Deferred Annuity Contracts The Company amortizes DAC and VOBA related to these contracts over the estimated lives of the contracts in proportion to actual and expected future gross profits. The amortization includes interest based on rates in effect at inception or acquisition of the contracts. The amount of future gross profits is dependent principally upon returns in excess of the amounts credited to policyholders, mortality, persistency, interest crediting rates, expenses to administer the business, creditworthiness of reinsurance counterparties, the effect of any hedges used 45 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 5. Deferred Policy Acquisition Costs, Value of Business Acquired and Other Policy-Related Intangibles (continued) and certain economic variables, such as inflation. Of these factors, the Company anticipates that investment returns, expenses and persistency are reasonably likely to impact significantly the rate of DAC and VOBA amortization. Each reporting period, the Company updates the estimated gross profits with the actual gross profits for that period. When the actual gross profits change from previously estimated gross profits, the cumulative DAC and VOBA amortization is re-estimated and adjusted by a cumulative charge or credit to current operations. When actual gross profits exceed those previously estimated, the DAC and VOBA amortization will increase, resulting in a current period charge to earnings. The opposite result occurs when the actual gross profits are below the previously estimated gross profits. Each reporting period, the Company also updates the actual amount of business remaining in-force, which impacts expected future gross profits. When expected future gross profits are below those previously estimated, the DAC and VOBA amortization will increase, resulting in a current period charge to earnings. The opposite result occurs when the expected future gross profits are above the previously estimated expected future gross profits. Each period, the Company also reviews the estimated gross profits for each block of business to determine the recoverability of DAC and VOBA balances. Factors Impacting Amortization Separate account rates of return on variable universal life contracts and variable deferred annuity contracts affect in-force account balances on such contracts each reporting period, which can result in significant fluctuations in amortization of DAC and VOBA. Returns that are higher than the Company's long-term expectation produce higher account balances, which increases the Company's future fee expectations and decreases future benefit payment expectations on minimum death and living benefit guarantees, resulting in higher expected future gross profits. The opposite result occurs when returns are lower than the Company's long-term expectation. The Company's practice to determine the impact of gross profits resulting from returns on separate accounts assumes that long-term appreciation in equity markets is not changed by short-term market fluctuations, but is only changed when sustained interim deviations are expected. The Company monitors these events and only changes the assumption when its long-term expectation changes. The Company also periodically reviews other long-term assumptions underlying the projections of estimated gross margins and profits. These assumptions primarily relate to investment returns, policyholder dividend scales, interest crediting rates, mortality, persistency and expenses to administer business. Management annually updates assumptions used in the calculation of estimated gross margins and profits which may have significantly changed. If the update of assumptions causes expected future gross margins and profits to increase, DAC and VOBA amortization will decrease, resulting in a current period increase to earnings. The opposite result occurs when the assumption update causes expected future gross margins and profits to decrease. Periodically, the Company modifies product benefits, features, rights or coverages that occur by the exchange of a contract for a new contract, or by amendment, endorsement, or rider to a contract, or by election or coverage within a contract. If such modification, referred to as an internal replacement, substantially changes the contract, the associated DAC or VOBA is written off immediately through income and any new deferrable costs associated with the replacement contract are deferred. If the modification does not substantially change the contract, the DAC or VOBA amortization on the original contract will continue and any acquisition costs associated with the related modification are expensed. 46 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 5. Deferred Policy Acquisition Costs, Value of Business Acquired and Other Policy-Related Intangibles (continued) Amortization of DAC and VOBA is attributed to net investment gains (losses) and net derivative gains (losses), and to other expenses for the amount of gross margins or profits originating from transactions other than investment gains and losses. Unrealized investment gains and losses represent the amount of DAC and VOBA that would have been amortized if such gains and losses had been recognized. Information regarding DAC and VOBA was as follows:

48 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 6. Reinsurance The Company enters into reinsurance agreements primarily as a purchaser of reinsurance for its various insurance products and also as a provider of reinsurance for some insurance products issued by affiliated and unaffiliated companies. The Company participates in reinsurance activities in order to limit losses, minimize exposure to significant risks and provide additional capacity for future growth. Accounting for reinsurance requires extensive use of assumptions and estimates, particularly related to the future performance of the underlying business and the potential impact of counterparty credit risks. The Company periodically reviews actual and anticipated experience compared to the aforementioned assumptions used to establish assets and liabilities relating to ceded and assumed reinsurance and evaluates the financial strength of counterparties to its reinsurance agreements using criteria similar to that evaluated in the security impairment process discussed in Note 8. Retail For its individual life insurance products, the Company has historically reinsured the mortality risk primarily on an excess of retention basis or on a quota share basis. The Company currently reinsures 90% of the mortality risk in excess of $2 million for most products and reinsures up to 90% of the mortality risk for certain other products. In addition to reinsuring mortality risk as described above, the Company reinsures other risks, as well as specific coverages. Placement of reinsurance is done primarily on an automatic basis and also on a facultative basis for risks with specified characteristics. On a case by case basis, the Company may retain up to $20 million per life and reinsure 100% of amounts in excess of the amount the Company retains. The Company evaluates its reinsurance programs routinely and may increase or decrease its retention at any time. The Company's Retail Annuities business assumes 90% of the fixed annuities issued by several affiliates. The Company also reinsures 100% of the living and death benefit guarantees issued in connection with its variable annuities issued since 2004 to an affiliated reinsurer and certain portions of the living and death benefit guarantees issued in connection with its variable annuities issued prior to 2004 to affiliated and unaffiliated reinsurers. Under these reinsurance agreements, the Company pays a reinsurance premium generally based on fees associated with the guarantees collected from policyholders, and receives reimbursement for benefits paid or accrued in excess of account values, subject to certain limitations. The value of the embedded derivatives on the ceded risk is determined using a methodology consistent with the guarantees directly written by the Company with the exception of the input for nonperformance risk that reflects the credit of the reinsurer. Group, Voluntary & Worksite Benefits For policies within the Group, Voluntary & Worksite Benefits segment, the Company generally retains most of the risk and only cedes particular risk on certain client arrangements. The majority of the Company's reinsurance activity with this segment relates to client agreements for employer sponsored captive programs, risk-sharing agreements and multinational pooling. Corporate Benefit Funding The Company's Corporate Benefit Funding segment has periodically engaged in reinsurance activities, on an opportunistic basis. The impact of these activities on the financial results of this segment has not been significant and there were no additional transactions during the periods presented. 49 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 6. Reinsurance (continued) Catastrophe Coverage The Company has exposure to catastrophes which could contribute to significant fluctuations in the Company's results of operations. The Company uses excess of retention and quota share reinsurance agreements to provide greater diversification of risk and minimize exposure to larger risks. The Company reinsures its business through a diversified group of well-capitalized reinsurers. The Company analyzes recent trends in arbitration and litigation outcomes in disputes, if any, with its reinsurers. The Company monitors ratings and evaluates the financial strength of its reinsurers by analyzing their financial statements. In addition, the reinsurance recoverable balance due from each reinsurer is evaluated as part of the overall monitoring process. Recoverability of reinsurance recoverable balances is evaluated based on these analyses. The Company generally secures large reinsurance recoverable balances with various forms of collateral, including secured trusts, funds withheld accounts and irrevocable letters of credit. These reinsurance recoverable balances are stated net of allowances for uncollectible reinsurance, which at December 31, 2013 and 2012, were not significant. The Company has secured certain reinsurance recoverable balances with various forms of collateral, including secured trusts, funds withheld accounts and irrevocable letters of credit. The Company had $2.4 billion of unsecured reinsurance recoverable balances at both December 31, 2013 and 2012. At December 31, 2013, the Company had $5.4 billion of net unaffiliated ceded reinsurance recoverables. Of this total, $4.4 billion, or 82%, were with the Company's five largest unaffiliated ceded reinsurers, including $1.8 billion of net unaffiliated ceded reinsurance recoverables which were unsecured. At December 31, 2012, the Company had $5.4 billion of net unaffiliated ceded reinsurance recoverables. Of this total, $4.4 billion, or 82%, were with the Company's five largest unaffiliated ceded reinsurers, including $1.8 billion of net unaffiliated ceded reinsurance recoverables which were unsecured. The Company has reinsured with an unaffiliated third-party reinsurer, 59.25% of the closed block through a modified coinsurance agreement. The Company accounts for this agreement under the deposit method of accounting. The Company, having the right of offset, has offset the modified coinsurance deposit with the deposit recoverable. 50 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.)

-------- (1)Effective in June 2012, the Company recaptured 10% of the 40.75% of the closed block liabilities that were ceded to MRC on a coinsurance with funds withheld basis. In connection with this partial recapture, the Company recognized a decrease of $3.9 billion in the deposit receivable included within premiums, reinsurance and other receivables, as well as an offsetting decrease of $3.9 billion in the funds withheld included within other liabilities at December 31, 2012. MLIC ceded two blocks of business to two affiliates on a 75% coinsurance with funds withheld basis. Certain contractual features of these agreements qualify as embedded derivatives, which are separately accounted for at estimated fair value on the Company's consolidated balance sheets. The embedded derivatives related to the funds withheld associated with these reinsurance agreements are included within other liabilities and increased/(decreased) the funds withheld balance by ($11) million and $29 million at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Net derivative gains (losses) associated with these embedded derivatives were $40 million, ($9) million and ($29) million for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The Company ceded risks to an affiliate related to guaranteed minimum benefit guarantees written directly by the Company. These ceded reinsurance agreements contain embedded derivatives and changes in their fair value are included within net derivative gains (losses). The embedded derivatives associated with the cessions are included within premiums, reinsurance and other receivables and were ($62) million and $1.4 billion at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Net derivative gains (losses) associated with the embedded derivatives were ($1.7) billion, $14 million and $727 million for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Certain contractual features of the closed block agreement with MRC create an embedded derivative, which is separately accounted for at estimated fair value on the Company's consolidated balance sheets. The embedded derivative related to the funds withheld associated with this reinsurance agreement was included within other liabilities and increased the funds withheld balance by $709 million and $1.4 billion at December 31, 2013 and 54 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 6. Reinsurance (continued) 2012, respectively. Net derivative gains (losses) associated with the embedded derivative were $664 million, $135 million and ($811) million for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The Company has secured certain reinsurance recoverable balances with various forms of collateral, including secured trusts, funds withheld accounts and irrevocable letters of credit. The Company had $1.2 billion and $2.1 billion of unsecured affiliated reinsurance recoverable balances at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Affiliated reinsurance agreements that do not expose the Company to a reasonable possibility of a significant loss from insurance risk are recorded using the deposit method of accounting. The deposit assets on affiliated reinsurance were $11.8 billion at both December 31, 2013 and 2012. The deposit liabilities on affiliated reinsurance were $6.5 billion and $6.8 billion at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. 7. Closed Block On April 7, 2000 (the "Demutualization Date"), Metropolitan Life Insurance Company converted from a mutual life insurance company to a stock life insurance company and became a wholly-owned subsidiary of MetLife, Inc. The conversion was pursuant to an order by the New York Superintendent of Insurance approving Metropolitan Life Insurance Company's plan of reorganization, as amended (the "Plan"). On the Demutualization Date, Metropolitan Life Insurance Company established a closed block for the benefit of holders of certain individual life insurance policies of Metropolitan Life Insurance Company. Assets have been allocated to the closed block in an amount that has been determined to produce cash flows which, together with anticipated revenues from the policies included in the closed block, are reasonably expected to be sufficient to support obligations and liabilities relating to these policies, including, but not limited to, provisions for the payment of claims and certain expenses and taxes, and to provide for the continuation of policyholder dividend scales in effect for 1999, if the experience underlying such dividend scales continues, and for appropriate adjustments in such scales if the experience changes. At least annually, the Company compares actual and projected experience against the experience assumed in the then-current dividend scales. Dividend scales are adjusted periodically to give effect to changes in experience. The closed block assets, the cash flows generated by the closed block assets and the anticipated revenues from the policies in the closed block will benefit only the holders of the policies in the closed block. To the extent that, over time, cash flows from the assets allocated to the closed block and claims and other experience related to the closed block are, in the aggregate, more or less favorable than what was assumed when the closed block was established, total dividends paid to closed block policyholders in the future may be greater than or less than the total dividends that would have been paid to these policyholders if the policyholder dividend scales in effect for 1999 had been continued. Any cash flows in excess of amounts assumed will be available for distribution over time to closed block policyholders and will not be available to stockholders. If the closed block has insufficient funds to make guaranteed policy benefit payments, such payments will be made from assets outside of the closed block. The closed block will continue in effect as long as any policy in the closed block remains in-force. The expected life of the closed block is over 100 years. The Company uses the same accounting principles to account for the participating policies included in the closed block as it used prior to the Demutualization Date. However, the Company establishes a policyholder dividend obligation for earnings that will be paid to policyholders as additional dividends as described below. The excess of closed block liabilities over closed block assets at the Demutualization Date (adjusted to eliminate 55 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 7. Closed Block (continued) the impact of related amounts in AOCI) represents the estimated maximum future earnings from the closed block expected to result from operations attributed to the closed block after income taxes. Earnings of the closed block are recognized in income over the period the policies and contracts in the closed block remain in-force. Management believes that over time the actual cumulative earnings of the closed block will approximately equal the expected cumulative earnings due to the effect of dividend changes. If, over the period the closed block remains in existence, the actual cumulative earnings of the closed block are greater than the expected cumulative earnings of the closed block, the Company will pay the excess of the actual cumulative earnings of the closed block over the expected cumulative earnings to closed block policyholders as additional policyholder dividends unless offset by future unfavorable experience of the closed block and, accordingly, will recognize only the expected cumulative earnings in income with the excess recorded as a policyholder dividend obligation. If over such period, the actual cumulative earnings of the closed block are less than the expected cumulative earnings of the closed block, the Company will recognize only the actual earnings in income. However, the Company may change policyholder dividend scales in the future, which would be intended to increase future actual earnings until the actual cumulative earnings equal the expected cumulative earnings. Experience within the closed block, in particular mortality and investment yields, as well as realized and unrealized gains and losses, directly impact the policyholder dividend obligation. Amortization of the closed block DAC, which resides outside of the closed block, is based upon cumulative actual and expected earnings within the closed block. Accordingly, the Company's net income continues to be sensitive to the actual performance of the closed block. Closed block assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses are combined on a line-by-line basis with the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses outside the closed block based on the nature of the particular item. 56 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.)

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 8. Investments See Note 10 for information about the fair value hierarchy for investments and the related valuation methodologies. Investment Risks and Uncertainties Investments are exposed to the following primary sources of risk: credit, interest rate, liquidity, market valuation, currency and real estate risk. The financial statement risks, stemming from such investment risks, are those associated with the determination of estimated fair values, the diminished ability to sell certain investments in times of strained market conditions, the recognition of impairments, the recognition of income on certain investments and the potential consolidation of VIEs. The use of different methodologies, assumptions and inputs relating to these financial statement risks may have a material effect on the amounts presented within the consolidated financial statements. The determination of valuation allowances and impairments is highly subjective and is based upon periodic evaluations and assessments of known and inherent risks associated with the respective asset class. Such evaluations and assessments are revised as conditions change and new information becomes available. The recognition of income on certain investments (e.g. structured securities, including mortgage-backed securities, asset-backed securities ("ABS"), certain structured investment transactions and trading and FVO securities) is dependent upon certain factors such as prepayments and defaults, and changes in such factors could result in changes in amounts to be earned. 59 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.)

-------- (1)The noncredit loss component of OTTI losses was in an unrealized gain position of $1 million for ABS at December 31, 2013, and $1 million for foreign corporate securities at December 31, 2012, due to increases in estimated fair value subsequent to initial recognition of noncredit losses on such securities. See also "--Net Unrealized Investment Gains (Losses)." The Company held non-income producing fixed maturity securities with an estimated fair value of $38 million and $41 million with unrealized gains (losses) of $12 million and $6 million at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Methodology for Amortization of Premium and Accretion of Discount on Structured Securities Amortization of premium and accretion of discount on structured securities considers the estimated timing and amount of prepayments of the underlying loans. Actual prepayment experience is periodically reviewed and effective yields are recalculated when differences arise between the originally anticipated and the actual 60 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 8. Investments (continued) prepayments received and currently anticipated. Prepayment assumptions for single class and multi-class mortgage-backed and ABS are estimated using inputs obtained from third-party specialists and based on management's knowledge of the current market. For credit-sensitive mortgage-backed and ABS and certain prepayment-sensitive securities, the effective yield is recalculated on a prospective basis. For all other mortgage-backed and ABS, the effective yield is recalculated on a retrospective basis. Maturities of Fixed Maturity Securities The amortized cost and estimated fair value of fixed maturity securities, by contractual maturity date, were as follows at:

62 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 8. Investments (continued) Evaluation of AFS Securities for OTTI and Evaluating Temporarily Impaired AFS Securities Evaluation and Measurement Methodologies Management considers a wide range of factors about the security issuer and uses its best judgment in evaluating the cause of the decline in the estimated fair value of the security and in assessing the prospects for near-term recovery. Inherent in management's evaluation of the security are assumptions and estimates about the operations of the issuer and its future earnings potential. Considerations used in the impairment evaluation process include, but are not limited to: (i) the length of time and the extent to which the estimated fair value has been below cost or amortized cost; (ii) the potential for impairments when the issuer is experiencing significant financial difficulties; (iii) the potential for impairments in an entire industry sector or sub-sector; (iv) the potential for impairments in certain economically depressed geographic locations; (v) the potential for impairments where the issuer, series of issuers or industry has suffered a catastrophic loss or has exhausted natural resources; (vi) with respect to fixed maturity securities, whether the Company has the intent to sell or will more likely than not be required to sell a particular security before the decline in estimated fair value below amortized cost recovers; (vii) with respect to structured securities, changes in forecasted cash flows after considering the quality of underlying collateral, expected prepayment speeds, current and forecasted loss severity, consideration of the payment terms of the underlying assets backing a particular security, and the payment priority within the tranche structure of the security; and (viii) other subjective factors, including concentrations and information obtained from regulators and rating agencies. The methodology and significant inputs used to determine the amount of credit loss on fixed maturity securities are as follows: . The Company calculates the recovery value by performing a discounted cash flow analysis based on the present value of future cash flows. The discount rate is generally the effective interest rate of the security prior to impairment. . When determining collectability and the period over which value is expected to recover, the Company applies considerations utilized in its overall impairment evaluation process which incorporates information regarding the specific security, fundamentals of the industry and geographic area in which the security issuer operates, and overall macroeconomic conditions. Projected future cash flows are estimated using assumptions derived from management's best estimates of likely scenario-based outcomes after giving consideration to a variety of variables that include, but are not limited to: payment terms of the security; the likelihood that the issuer can service the interest and principal payments; the quality and amount of any credit enhancements; the security's position within the capital structure of the issuer; possible corporate restructurings or asset sales by the issuer; and changes to the rating of the security or the issuer by rating agencies. . Additional considerations are made when assessing the unique features that apply to certain structured securities including, but not limited to: the quality of underlying collateral, expected prepayment speeds, current and forecasted loss severity, consideration of the payment terms of the underlying loans or assets backing a particular security, and the payment priority within the tranche structure of the security. 63 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 8. Investments (continued) . When determining the amount of the credit loss for U.S. and foreign corporate securities, foreign government securities and state and political subdivision securities, the estimated fair value is considered the recovery value when available information does not indicate that another value is more appropriate. When information is identified that indicates a recovery value other than estimated fair value, management considers in the determination of recovery value the same considerations utilized in its overall impairment evaluation process as described above, as well as any private and public sector programs to restructure such securities. With respect to securities that have attributes of debt and equity (perpetual hybrid securities), consideration is given in the OTTI analysis as to whether there has been any deterioration in the credit of the issuer and the likelihood of recovery in value of the securities that are in a severe and extended unrealized loss position. Consideration is also given as to whether any perpetual hybrid securities, with an unrealized loss, regardless of credit rating, have deferred any dividend payments. When an OTTI loss has occurred, the OTTI loss is the entire difference between the perpetual hybrid security's cost and its estimated fair value with a corresponding charge to earnings. The cost or amortized cost of fixed maturity and equity securities is adjusted for OTTI in the period in which the determination is made. The Company does not change the revised cost basis for subsequent recoveries in value. In periods subsequent to the recognition of OTTI on a fixed maturity security, the Company accounts for the impaired security as if it had been purchased on the measurement date of the impairment. Accordingly, the discount (or reduced premium) based on the new cost basis is accreted over the remaining term of the fixed maturity security in a prospective manner based on the amount and timing of estimated future cash flows. Current Period Evaluation Based on the Company's current evaluation of its AFS securities in an unrealized loss position in accordance with its impairment policy, and the Company's current intentions and assessments (as applicable to the type of security) about holding, selling and any requirements to sell these securities, the Company has concluded that these securities are not other-than-temporarily impaired at December 31, 2013. Future OTTI will depend primarily on economic fundamentals, issuer performance (including changes in the present value of future cash flows expected to be collected), and changes in credit ratings, collateral valuation, interest rates and credit spreads. If economic fundamentals deteriorate or if there are adverse changes in the above factors, OTTI may be incurred in upcoming periods. Gross unrealized losses on fixed maturity securities increased $1.5 billion during the year ended December 31, 2013 from $1.1 billion to $2.6 billion. The increase in gross unrealized losses for the year ended December 31, 2013, was primarily attributable to an increase in interest rates, partially offset by narrowing credit spreads. At December 31, 2013, $163 million of the total $2.6 billion of gross unrealized losses were from 60 fixed maturity securities with an unrealized loss position of 20% or more of amortized cost for six months or greater. 64 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 8. Investments (continued) Investment Grade Fixed Maturity Securities Of the $163 million of gross unrealized losses on fixed maturity securities with an unrealized loss of 20% or more of amortized cost for six months or greater, $76 million, or 47%, are related to gross unrealized losses on 39 investment grade fixed maturity securities. Unrealized losses on investment grade fixed maturity securities are principally related to widening credit spreads and, with respect to fixed-rate fixed maturity securities, rising interest rates since purchase. Below Investment Grade Fixed Maturity Securities Of the $163 million of gross unrealized losses on fixed maturity securities with an unrealized loss of 20% or more of amortized cost for six months or greater, $87 million, or 53%, are related to gross unrealized losses on 21 below investment grade fixed maturity securities. Unrealized losses on below investment grade fixed maturity securities are principally related to non-agency RMBS (primarily alternative residential mortgage loans) and ABS (primarily foreign ABS) and are the result of significantly wider credit spreads resulting from higher risk premiums since purchase, largely due to economic and market uncertainties including concerns over unemployment levels and valuations of residential real estate supporting non-agency RMBS. Management evaluates non-agency RMBS and ABS based on actual and projected cash flows after considering the quality of underlying collateral, expected prepayment speeds, current and forecasted loss severity, consideration of the payment terms of the underlying assets backing a particular security, and the payment priority within the tranche structure of the security. Equity Securities Gross unrealized losses on equity securities decreased $36 million during the year ended December 31, 2013 from $116 million to $80 million. Of the $80 million, $33 million were from ten equity securities with gross unrealized losses of 20% or more of cost for 12 months or greater, all of which were financial services industry investment grade non-redeemable preferred stock, of which 68% were rated A or better. 65 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.)

67 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 8. Investments (continued) Valuation Allowance Methodology Mortgage loans are considered to be impaired when it is probable that, based upon current information and events, the Company will be unable to collect all amounts due under the loan agreement. Specific valuation allowances are established using the same methodology for all three portfolio segments as the excess carrying value of a loan over either (i) the present value of expected future cash flows discounted at the loan's original effective interest rate, (ii) the estimated fair value of the loan's underlying collateral if the loan is in the process of foreclosure or otherwise collateral dependent, or (iii) the loan's observable market price. A common evaluation framework is used for establishing non-specific valuation allowances for all loan portfolio segments; however, a separate non-specific valuation allowance is calculated and maintained for each loan portfolio segment that is based on inputs unique to each loan portfolio segment. Non-specific valuation allowances are established for pools of loans with similar risk characteristics where a property-specific or market-specific risk has not been identified, but for which the Company expects to incur a credit loss. These evaluations are based upon several loan portfolio segment-specific factors, including the Company's experience for loan losses, defaults and loss severity, and loss expectations for loans with similar risk characteristics. These evaluations are revised as conditions change and new information becomes available. Commercial and Agricultural Mortgage Loan Portfolio Segments The Company typically uses several years of historical experience in establishing non-specific valuation allowances which captures multiple economic cycles. For evaluations of commercial mortgage loans, in addition to historical experience, management considers factors that include the impact of a rapid change to the economy, which may not be reflected in the loan portfolio, and recent loss and recovery trend experience as compared to historical loss and recovery experience. For evaluations of agricultural mortgage loans, in addition to historical experience, management considers factors that include increased stress in certain sectors, which may be evidenced by higher delinquency rates, or a change in the number of higher risk loans. On a quarterly basis, management incorporates the impact of these current market events and conditions on historical experience in determining the non-specific valuation allowance established for commercial and agricultural mortgage loans. All commercial mortgage loans are reviewed on an ongoing basis which may include an analysis of the property financial statements and rent roll, lease rollover analysis, property inspections, market analysis, estimated valuations of the underlying collateral, loan-to-value ratios, debt service coverage ratios, and tenant creditworthiness. All agricultural mortgage loans are monitored on an ongoing basis. The monitoring process focuses on higher risk loans, which include those that are classified as restructured, delinquent or in foreclosure, as well as loans with higher loan-to-value ratios and lower debt service coverage ratios. The monitoring process for agricultural mortgage loans is generally similar to the commercial mortgage loan monitoring process, with a focus on higher risk loans, including reviews on a geographic and property-type basis. Higher risk loans are reviewed individually on an ongoing basis for potential credit loss and specific valuation allowances are established using the methodology described above. Quarterly, the remaining loans are reviewed on a pool basis by aggregating groups of loans that have similar risk characteristics for potential credit loss, and non-specific valuation allowances are established as described above using inputs that are unique to each segment of the loan portfolio. For commercial mortgage loans, the primary credit quality indicator is the debt service coverage ratio, which compares a property's net operating income to amounts needed to service the principal and interest due 68 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 8. Investments (continued) under the loan. Generally, the lower the debt service coverage ratio, the higher the risk of experiencing a credit loss. The Company also reviews the loan-to-value ratio of its commercial mortgage loan portfolio. Loan-to-value ratios compare the unpaid principal balance of the loan to the estimated fair value of the underlying collateral. Generally, the higher the loan-to-value ratio, the higher the risk of experiencing a credit loss. The debt service coverage ratio and loan-to-value ratio, as well as the values utilized in calculating these ratios, are updated annually, on a rolling basis, with a portion of the loan portfolio updated each quarter. For agricultural mortgage loans, the Company's primary credit quality indicator is the loan-to-value ratio. The values utilized in calculating this ratio are developed in connection with the ongoing review of the agricultural mortgage loan portfolio and are routinely updated. Residential Mortgage Loan Portfolio Segment The Company's residential mortgage loan portfolio is comprised primarily of closed end, amortizing residential mortgage loans. For evaluations of residential mortgage loans, the key inputs of expected frequency and expected loss reflect current market conditions, with expected frequency adjusted, when appropriate, for differences from market conditions and the Company's historical experience. In contrast to the commercial and agricultural mortgage loan portfolios, residential mortgage loans are smaller-balance homogeneous loans that are collectively evaluated for impairment. Non-specific valuation allowances are established using the evaluation framework described above for pools of loans with similar risk characteristics from inputs that are unique to the residential segment of the loan portfolio. Loan specific valuation allowances are only established on residential mortgage loans when they have been restructured and are established using the methodology described above for all loan portfolio segments. For residential mortgage loans, the Company's primary credit quality indicator is whether the loan is performing or nonperforming. The Company generally defines nonperforming residential mortgage loans as those that are 60 or more days past due and/or in non-accrual status which is assessed monthly. Generally, nonperforming residential mortgage loans have a higher risk of experiencing a credit loss. Credit Quality of Commercial Mortgage Loans The credit quality of commercial mortgage loans held-for-investment, were as follows:

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 8. Investments (continued) Mortgage Loans Modified in a Troubled Debt Restructuring For a small portion of the mortgage loan portfolio, classified as troubled debt restructurings, concessions are granted related to borrowers experiencing financial difficulties. Generally, the types of concessions include: reduction of the contractual interest rate, extension of the maturity date at an interest rate lower than current market interest rates, and/or a reduction of accrued interest. The amount, timing and extent of the concession granted is considered in determining any impairment or changes in the specific valuation allowance recorded with the restructuring. Through the continuous monitoring process, a specific valuation allowance may have been recorded prior to the quarter when the mortgage loan is modified in a troubled debt restructuring. Accordingly, the carrying value (after specific valuation allowance) before and after modification through a troubled debt restructuring may not change significantly, or may increase if the expected recovery is higher than the pre-modification recovery assessment. The number of mortgage loans and carrying value after specific valuation allowance of mortgage loans modified during the period in a troubled debt restructuring were as follows:

There were no mortgage loans modified in a troubled debt restructuring with a subsequent payment default at December 31, 2012. Payment default is determined in the same manner as delinquency status as described above. Other Invested Assets Other invested assets is comprised primarily of freestanding derivatives with positive estimated fair values (see Note 9), tax credit and renewable energy partnerships, loans to affiliates (see "- Related Party Investment Transactions") and leveraged leases. 72 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.)

Rental receivables are generally due in periodic installments. The payment periods range from one to 15 years but in certain circumstances can be over 30 years. For rental receivables, the primary credit quality indicator is whether the rental receivable is performing or nonperforming, which is assessed monthly. The Company generally defines nonperforming rental receivables as those that are 90 days or more past due. At December 31, 2013 and 2012, all rental receivables were performing.

Purchased Credit Impaired Investments Investments acquired with evidence of credit quality deterioration since origination and for which it is probable at the acquisition date that the Company will be unable to collect all contractually required payments are classified as purchased credit impaired ("PCI") investments. For each investment, the excess of the cash flows expected to be collected as of the acquisition date over its acquisition date fair value is referred to as the 76 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.)

If subsequently, based on current information and events, it is probable that there is a significant increase in cash flows previously expected to be collected or if actual cash flows are significantly greater than cash flows previously expected to be collected, the accretable yield is adjusted prospectively. The excess of the contractually required payments (including interest) as of the acquisition date over the cash flows expected to be collected as of the acquisition date is referred to as the nonaccretable difference, and this amount is not expected to be realized as net investment income. Decreases in cash flows expected to be collected can result in OTTI. The Company's PCI fixed maturity securities were as follows at:

77 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 8. Investments (continued) Collectively Significant Equity Method Investments The Company holds investments in real estate joint ventures, real estate funds and other limited partnership interests consisting of leveraged buy-out funds, hedge funds, private equity funds, joint ventures and other funds. The portion of these investments accounted for under the equity method had a carrying value of $8.8 billion at December 31, 2013. The Company's maximum exposure to loss related to these equity method investments is limited to the carrying value of these investments plus unfunded commitments of $2.7 billion at December 31, 2013. Except for certain real estate joint ventures, the Company's investments in real estate funds and other limited partnership interests are generally of a passive nature in that the Company does not participate in the management of the entities. As described in Note 1, the Company generally records its share of earnings in its equity method investments using a three-month lag methodology and within net investment income. Aggregate net investment income from these equity method investments exceeded 10% of the Company's consolidated pre-tax income (loss) from continuing operations for two of the three most recent annual periods: 2013 and 2011. The Company is providing the following aggregated summarized financial data for such equity method investments, for the most recent annual periods, in order to provide comparative information. This aggregated summarized financial data does not represent the Company's proportionate share of the assets, liabilities, or earnings of such entities. The aggregated summarized financial data presented below reflects the latest available financial information and is as of, and for, the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011. Aggregate total assets of these entities totaled $280.7 billion and $259.4 billion at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Aggregate total liabilities of these entities totaled $23.5 billion and $22.2 billion at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Aggregate net income (loss) of these entities totaled $25.0 billion, $16.5 billion and $8.4 billion for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Aggregate net income (loss) from the underlying entities in which the Company invests is primarily comprised of investment income, including recurring investment income and realized and unrealized investment gains (losses). Variable Interest Entities The Company has invested in certain structured transactions (including CSEs) that are VIEs. In certain instances, the Company holds both the power to direct the most significant activities of the entity, as well as an economic interest in the entity and, as such, is deemed to be the primary beneficiary or consolidator of the entity. The determination of the VIE's primary beneficiary requires an evaluation of the contractual and implied rights and obligations associated with each party's relationship with or involvement in the entity, an estimate of the entity's expected losses and expected residual returns and the allocation of such estimates to each party involved in the entity. The Company generally uses a qualitative approach to determine whether it is the primary beneficiary. However, for VIEs that are investment companies or apply measurement principles consistent with those utilized by investment companies, the primary beneficiary is based on a risks and rewards model and is defined as the entity that will absorb a majority of a VIE's expected losses, receive a majority of a VIE's expected residual returns if no single entity absorbs a majority of expected losses, or both. The Company reassesses its involvement with VIEs on a quarterly basis. The use of different methodologies, assumptions and inputs in the determination of the primary beneficiary could have a material effect on the amounts presented within the consolidated financial statements. 78 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 8. Investments (continued) Consolidated VIEs The following table presents the total assets and total liabilities relating to VIEs for which the Company has concluded that it is the primary beneficiary and which are consolidated at December 31, 2013 and 2012. Creditors or beneficial interest holders of VIEs where the Company is the primary beneficiary have no recourse to the general credit of the Company, as the Company's obligation to the VIEs is limited to the amount of its committed investment.

-------- (1)The Company consolidated an open ended core real estate fund formed in the fourth quarter of 2013, which represented the majority of the balances at December 31, 2013. Assets of the real estate fund are a real estate investment trust which holds primarily traditional core income-producing real estate which have associated liabilities that are primarily non-recourse debt secured by certain real estate assets of the fund. The assets of these entities can only be used to settle their respective liabilities, and under no circumstances is the Company liable for any principal or interest shortfalls should any arise. The Company's exposure was limited to that of its investment in the real estate fund of $178 million at carrying value at December 31, 2013. The long-term debt bears interest primarily at fixed rates ranging from 1.39% to 4.45%, payable primarily on a monthly basis. Interest expense related to these obligations, included in other expenses, was less than $1 million for the year ended December 31, 2013. (2)The Company consolidates certain fixed maturity securities purchased in an investment vehicle which was partially funded with affiliated long-term debt. The long-term debt bears interest primarily at variable rates, payable on a bi-annual basis. Interest expense related to these obligations, included in other expenses, was $2 million and $1 million for the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. There was no interest expense for the year ended December 31, 2011. (3)The Company consolidates entities that are structured as collateralized debt obligations. The assets of these entities can only be used to settle their respective liabilities, and under no circumstances is the Company liable for any principal or interest shortfalls should any arise. The Company's exposure was limited to that of its remaining investment in these entities of less than $1 million at estimated fair value at both December 31, 2013 and 2012. The long-term debt bears interest primarily at variable rates, payable on a bi-annual basis. Interest expense related to these obligations, included in other expenses, was $3 million, $4 million and $9 million for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. 79 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 8. Investments (continued) Unconsolidated VIEs The carrying amount and maximum exposure to loss relating to VIEs in which the Company holds a significant variable interest but is not the primary beneficiary and which have not been consolidated were as follows at:

-------- (1)The maximum exposure to loss relating to fixed maturity securities AFS is equal to their carrying amounts or the carrying amounts of retained interests. The maximum exposure to loss relating to other limited partnership interests and real estate joint ventures is equal to the carrying amounts plus any unfunded commitments of the Company. For certain of its investments in other invested assets, the Company's return is in the form of income tax credits which are guaranteed by creditworthy third parties. For such investments, the maximum exposure to loss is equal to the carrying amounts plus any unfunded commitments, reduced by income tax credits guaranteed by third parties of $257 million and $315 million at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Such a maximum loss would be expected to occur only upon bankruptcy of the issuer or investee. (2)For these variable interests, the Company's involvement is limited to that of a passive investor. As described in Note 17, the Company makes commitments to fund partnership investments in the normal course of business. Excluding these commitments, the Company did not provide financial or other support to investees designated as VIEs during the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011. 80 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.)

See Note 20. The Company purchased from MetLife Bank, $1.5 billion of fixed maturity securities, at estimated fair value, for cash during the year ended December 31, 2012. See "-- Mortgage Loans" for information on additional purchases from this affiliate. The Company provides investment administrative services to certain affiliates. The related investment administrative service charges to these affiliates were $172 million, $158 million and $164 million for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The Company also had additional affiliated net investment income of $4 million, $4 million and $3 million for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. 84 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 8. Investments (continued) The Company has affiliated loans outstanding, which are included in other invested assets, totaling $1.5 billion at both December 31, 2013 and 2012. At December 31, 2011, the loans were outstanding with Exeter. During 2012, MetLife, Inc. assumed this affiliated debt from Exeter. One loan matured on September 30, 2012 and was replaced by a new loan on October 1, 2012. The loans, which bear interest at a fixed rate, payable semiannually are due as follows: $500 million at 6.44% due on June 30, 2014, $250 million at 3.57% due on October 1, 2019, $250 million at 7.44% due on September 30, 2016, $150 million at 5.64% due July 15, 2021 and $375 million at 5.86% due December 16, 2021.

Derivatives Accounting for Derivatives See Note 1 for a description of the Company's accounting policies for derivatives and Note 10 for information about the fair value hierarchy for derivatives. Derivative Strategies The Company is exposed to various risks relating to its ongoing business operations, including interest rate, foreign currency exchange rate, credit and equity market. The Company uses a variety of strategies to manage these risks, including the use of derivatives. Derivatives are financial instruments whose values are derived from interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, credit spreads and/or other financial indices. Derivatives may be exchange-traded or contracted in the over-the-counter ("OTC") market. Certain of the Company's OTC derivatives are cleared and settled through central clearing counterparties ("OTC-cleared"), while others are bilateral contracts between two counterparties ("OTC-bilateral"). The types of derivatives the Company uses include swaps, forwards, futures and option contracts. To a lesser extent, the Company uses credit default swaps and structured interest rate swaps to synthetically replicate investment risks and returns which are not readily available in the cash market. Interest Rate Derivatives The Company uses a variety of interest rate derivatives to reduce its exposure to changes in interest rates, including interest rate swaps, caps, floors, swaptions and forwards. Interest rate swaps are used by the Company primarily to reduce market risks from changes in interest rates and to alter interest rate exposure arising from mismatches between assets and liabilities (duration mismatches). In an interest rate swap, the Company agrees with another party to exchange, at specified intervals, the difference between fixed rate and floating rate interest amounts as calculated by reference to an agreed notional amount. The Company utilizes interest rate swaps in fair value, cash flow and non-qualifying hedging relationships. 85 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 9. Derivatives (continued) The Company uses structured interest rate swaps to synthetically create investments that are either more expensive to acquire or otherwise unavailable in the cash markets. These transactions are a combination of a derivative and a cash instrument such as a U.S. Treasury, agency, or other fixed maturity security. Structured interest rate swaps are included in interest rate swaps. Structured interest rate swaps are not designated as hedging instruments. The Company purchases interest rate caps and floors primarily to protect its floating rate liabilities against rises in interest rates above a specified level, and against interest rate exposure arising from mismatches between assets and liabilities, as well as to protect its minimum rate guarantee liabilities against declines in interest rates below a specified level, respectively. In certain instances, the Company locks in the economic impact of existing purchased caps and floors by entering into offsetting written caps and floors. The Company utilizes interest rate caps and floors in non-qualifying hedging relationships. Swaptions are used by the Company to hedge interest rate risk associated with the Company's long-term liabilities and invested assets. A swaption is an option to enter into a swap with a forward starting effective date. In certain instances, the Company locks in the economic impact of existing purchased swaptions by entering into offsetting written swaptions. The Company pays a premium for purchased swaptions and receives a premium for written swaptions. The Company utilizes swaptions in non-qualifying hedging relationships. Swaptions are included in interest rate options. The Company enters into interest rate forwards to buy and sell securities. The price is agreed upon at the time of the contract and payment for such a contract is made at a specified future date. The Company utilizes interest rate forwards in cash flow hedging relationships. To a lesser extent the Company uses interest rate futures in non-qualifying hedging relationships. Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Derivatives The Company uses foreign currency exchange rate derivatives including foreign currency swaps, and foreign currency forwards to reduce the risk from fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates associated with its assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies. In a foreign currency swap transaction, the Company agrees with another party to exchange, at specified intervals, the difference between one currency and another at a fixed exchange rate, generally set at inception, calculated by reference to an agreed upon notional amount. The notional amount of each currency is exchanged at the inception and termination of the currency swap by each party. The Company utilizes foreign currency swaps in fair value, cash flow and non-qualifying hedging relationships. In a foreign currency forward transaction, the Company agrees with another party to deliver a specified amount of an identified currency at a specified future date. The price is agreed upon at the time of the contract and payment for such a contract is made at the specified future date. The Company utilizes foreign currency forwards in non-qualifying hedging relationships. To a lesser extent, the Company uses currency options in non-qualifying hedging relationships. 86 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 9. Derivatives (continued) Credit Derivatives The Company enters into purchased credit default swaps to hedge against credit-related changes in the value of its investments. In a credit default swap transaction, the Company agrees with another party to pay, at specified intervals, a premium to hedge credit risk. If a credit event occurs, as defined by the contract, the contract may be cash settled or it may be settled gross by the delivery of par quantities of the referenced investment equal to the specified swap notional in exchange for the payment of cash amounts by the counterparty equal to the par value of the investment surrendered. Credit events vary by type of issuer but typically include bankruptcy, failure to pay debt obligations, repudiation, moratorium, or involuntary restructuring. In each case, payout on a credit default swap is triggered only after the Credit Derivatives Determinations Committee of the International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. ("ISDA") deems that a credit event has occurred. The Company utilizes credit default swaps in non-qualifying hedging relationships. The Company enters into written credit default swaps to synthetically create credit investments that are either more expensive to acquire or otherwise unavailable in the cash markets. These transactions are a combination of a derivative and one or more cash instruments, such as U.S. Treasury securities, agency securities or other fixed maturity securities. These credit default swaps are not designated as hedging instruments. The Company also enters into certain purchased and written credit default swaps held in relation to trading portfolios for the purpose of generating profits on short-term differences in price. These credit default swaps are not designated as hedging instruments. The Company enters into forwards to lock in the price to be paid for forward purchases of certain securities. The price is agreed upon at the time of the contract and payment for the contract is made at a specified future date. When the primary purpose of entering into these transactions is to hedge against the risk of changes in purchase price due to changes in credit spreads, the Company designates these as credit forwards. The Company utilizes credit forwards in cash flow hedging relationships. Equity Derivatives To a lesser extent the Company uses equity index options in non-qualifying hedging relationships. 87 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.)

Based on notional amounts, a substantial portion of the Company's derivatives was not designated or did not qualify as part of a hedging relationship at both December 31, 2013 and 2012. The Company's use of derivatives includes (i) derivatives that serve as macro hedges of the Company's exposure to various risks and that generally do not qualify for hedge accounting due to the criteria required under the portfolio hedging rules; (ii) derivatives that economically hedge insurance liabilities that contain mortality or morbidity risk and that generally do not qualify for hedge accounting because the lack of these risks in the derivatives cannot support an expectation of a highly effective hedging relationship; and (iii) written credit default swaps that are used to synthetically create credit investments and that do not qualify for hedge accounting because they do not involve a hedging relationship. For these non-qualified derivatives, changes in market factors can lead to the recognition of fair value changes in the consolidated statement of operations without an offsetting gain or loss recognized in earnings for the item being hedged. 88 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.)

-------- (1)Fixed rate liabilities reported in PABs or future policy benefits. (2)Fixed rate or floating rate liabilities. All components of each derivative's gain or loss were included in the assessment of hedge effectiveness. Cash Flow Hedges The Company designates and accounts for the following as cash flow hedges when they have met the requirements of cash flow hedging: (i) interest rate swaps to convert floating rate assets and liabilities to fixed rate assets and liabilities; (ii) foreign currency swaps to hedge the foreign currency cash flow exposure of foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities; (iii) interest rate forwards and credit forwards to lock in the price to be paid for forward purchases of investments; and (iv) interest rate swaps and interest rate forwards to hedge the forecasted purchases of fixed-rate investments. In certain instances, the Company discontinued cash flow hedge accounting because the forecasted transactions were no longer probable of occurring. Because certain of the forecasted transactions also were not probable of occurring within two months of the anticipated date, the Company reclassified certain amounts from AOCI into net derivative gains (losses). These amounts were not significant for the year ending December 31, 2013, and were $1 million and $3 million for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. 91 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 9. Derivatives (continued) At December 31, 2013 and 2012, the maximum length of time over which the Company was hedging its exposure to variability in future cash flows for forecasted transactions did not exceed seven years and eight years, respectively. At December 31, 2013 and 2012, the balance in AOCI associated with cash flow hedges was $361 million and $1.1 billion, respectively.

All components of each derivative's gain or loss were included in the assessment of hedge effectiveness. At December 31, 2013, ($17) million of deferred net gains (losses) on derivatives in AOCI was expected to be reclassified to earnings within the next 12 months. Credit Derivatives In connection with synthetically created credit investment transactions and credit default swaps held in relation to the trading portfolio, the Company writes credit default swaps for which it receives a premium to insure credit risk. Such credit derivatives are included within the non-qualifying derivatives and derivatives for purposes other than hedging table. If a credit event occurs, as defined by the contract, the contract may be cash settled or it may be settled gross by the Company paying the counterparty the specified swap notional amount in exchange for the delivery of par quantities of the referenced credit obligation. The Company's maximum amount at risk, assuming the value of all referenced credit obligations is zero, was $6.6 billion and $6.2 billion at December 31, 2013 and 92 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 9. Derivatives (continued) 2012, respectively. The Company can terminate these contracts at any time through cash settlement with the counterparty at an amount equal to the then current fair value of the credit default swaps. At December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company would have received $123 million and $50 million, respectively, to terminate all of these contracts.

(3)The weighted average years to maturity of the credit default swaps is calculated based on weighted average notional amounts. The Company has also entered into credit default swaps to purchase credit protection on certain of the referenced credit obligations in the table above. As a result, the maximum amounts of potential future recoveries available to offset the $6.6 billion and $6.2 billion from the table above were $70 million and $120 million at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Written credit default swaps held in relation to the trading portfolio amounted to $10 million in notional and $0 in fair value at both December 31, 2013 and 2012. Credit Risk on Freestanding Derivatives The Company may be exposed to credit-related losses in the event of nonperformance by counterparties to derivatives. Generally, the current credit exposure of the Company's derivatives is limited to the net positive estimated fair value of derivatives at the reporting date after taking into consideration the existence of master netting or similar agreements and any collateral received pursuant to such agreements. The Company manages its credit risk related to derivatives by entering into transactions with creditworthy counterparties and establishing and monitoring exposure limits. The Company's OTC-bilateral derivative transactions are generally governed by ISDA Master Agreements which provide for legally enforceable set-off and close-out netting of exposures to specific counterparties in the event of early termination of a transaction, which includes, but is not limited to, events of default and bankruptcy. In the event of an early termination, the Company is permitted to set-off receivables from the counterparty against payables to the same counterparty arising out of all included transactions. Substantially all of the Company's ISDA Master Agreements also include Credit Support Annex provisions which require both the pledging and accepting of collateral in connection with its OTC-bilateral derivatives. The Company's OTC-cleared derivatives are effected through central clearing counterparties and its exchange-traded derivatives are effected through regulated exchanges. Such positions are marked to market and margined on a daily basis, and the Company has minimal exposure to credit-related losses in the event of nonperformance by counterparties to such derivatives. See Note 10 for a description of the impact of credit risk on the valuation of derivatives. 94 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.)

The amount of cash collateral offset in the table above is limited to the net estimated fair value of derivatives after application of netting agreements. At December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company received excess cash collateral of $47 million and $0, respectively, and provided excess cash collateral of $3 million and $25 million, respectively, which is not included in the table above due to the foregoing limitation. (4)Securities collateral received by the Company is held in separate custodial accounts and is not recorded on the consolidated balance sheets. Subject to certain constraints, the Company is permitted by contract to sell or repledge this collateral, but at December 31, 2013 none of the collateral had been sold or repledged. Securities collateral pledged by the Company is reported in fixed maturity securities in the consolidated balance sheets. Subject to certain constraints, the counterparties are permitted by contract to sell or repledge this collateral. The amount of securities collateral offset in the table above is limited to the net estimated fair value of derivatives after application of netting agreements and cash collateral. At December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company received excess securities collateral with an estimated fair value of $106 million and $139 million, respectively, for its OTC-bilateral derivatives which are not included in the table above due to the foregoing limitation. At December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company provided excess securities collateral with an estimated fair value of $25 million and $0 , respectively, for its OTC-bilateral derivatives, and $106 million and $0, respectively, for its OTC-cleared derivatives, which are not included in the table above due to the foregoing limitation. At both December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company did not pledge any securities collateral for its exchange traded derivatives. The Company's collateral arrangements for its OTC-bilateral derivatives generally require the counterparty in a net liability position, after considering the effect of netting agreements, to pledge collateral when the fair value of that counterparty's derivatives reaches a pre-determined threshold. Certain of these arrangements also include financial strength-contingent provisions that provide for a reduction of these thresholds (on a sliding scale that converges toward zero) in the event of downgrades in the financial strength ratings of the Company and/or the credit ratings of the counterparty. In addition, certain of the Company's netting agreements for derivatives contain provisions that require both the Company and the counterparty to maintain a specific investment grade financial strength or credit rating from each of Moody's and S&P. If a party's financial strength or credit ratings were to fall below that specific investment grade financial strength or credit rating, that party would be in violation of these provisions, and the other party to the derivatives could terminate the transactions and demand immediate settlement and payment based on such party's reasonable valuation of the derivatives. 96 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.)

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 10. Fair Value When developing estimated fair values, the Company considers three broad valuation techniques: (i) the market approach, (ii) the income approach, and (iii) the cost approach. The Company determines the most appropriate valuation technique to use, given what is being measured and the availability of sufficient inputs, giving priority to observable inputs. The Company categorizes its assets and liabilities measured at estimated fair value into a three-level hierarchy, based on the significant input with the lowest level in its valuation. The input levels are as follows: Level 1 Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. The Company defines active markets based on average trading volume for equity securities. The size of the bid/ask spread is used as an indicator of market activity for fixed maturity securities. Level 2 Quoted prices in markets that are not active or inputs that are observable either directly or indirectly. These inputs can include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities other than quoted prices in Level 1, quoted prices in markets that are not active, or other significant inputs that are observable or can be derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities. Level 3 Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and are significant to the determination of estimated fair value of the assets or liabilities. Unobservable inputs reflect the reporting entity's own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. Financial markets are susceptible to severe events evidenced by rapid depreciation in asset values accompanied by a reduction in asset liquidity. The Company's ability to sell securities, or the price ultimately realized for these securities, depends upon the demand and liquidity in the market and increases the use of judgment in determining the estimated fair value of certain securities. Considerable judgment is often required in interpreting market data to develop estimates of fair value, and the use of different assumptions or valuation methodologies may have a material effect on the estimated fair value amounts. 99 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.)

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 10. Fair Value (continued) (2)Derivative assets are presented within other invested assets in the consolidated balance sheets and derivative liabilities are presented within other liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets. The amounts are presented gross in the tables above to reflect the presentation in the consolidated balance sheets, but are presented net for purposes of the rollforward in the Fair Value Measurements Using Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3) tables. (3)Net embedded derivatives within asset host contracts are presented within premiums, reinsurance and other receivables in the consolidated balance sheets. Net embedded derivatives within liability host contracts are presented within PABs and other liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets. At December 31, 2013 and 2012, equity securities also included embedded derivatives of ($106) million and ($55) million, respectively. (4)Investment performance related to separate account assets is fully offset by corresponding amounts credited to contractholders whose liability is reflected within separate account liabilities. Separate account liabilities are set equal to the estimated fair value of separate account assets. (5)Trading liabilities are presented within other liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets. The following describes the valuation methodologies used to measure assets and liabilities at fair value. The description includes the valuation techniques and key inputs for each category of assets or liabilities that are classified within Level 2 and Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy. Investments Valuation Controls and Procedures On behalf of the Company and MetLife, Inc.'s Chief Investment Officer and Chief Financial Officer, a pricing and valuation committee that is independent of the trading and investing functions and comprised of senior management, provides oversight of control systems and valuation policies for securities, mortgage loans and derivatives. On a quarterly basis, this committee reviews and approves new transaction types and markets, ensures that observable market prices and market-based parameters are used for valuation, wherever possible, and determines that judgmental valuation adjustments, when applied, are based upon established policies and are applied consistently over time. This committee also provides oversight of the selection of independent third party pricing providers and the controls and procedures to evaluate third party pricing. Periodically, the Chief Accounting Officer reports to the Audit Committees of Metropolitan Life Insurance Company's and MetLife, Inc.'s Boards of Directors regarding compliance with fair value accounting standards. The Company reviews its valuation methodologies on an ongoing basis and revises those methodologies when necessary based on changing market conditions. Assurance is gained on the overall reasonableness and consistent application of input assumptions, valuation methodologies and compliance with fair value accounting standards through controls designed to ensure valuations represent an exit price. Several controls are utilized, including certain monthly controls, which include, but are not limited to, analysis of portfolio returns to corresponding benchmark returns, comparing a sample of executed prices of securities sold to the fair value estimates, comparing fair value estimates to management's knowledge of the current market, reviewing the bid/ask spreads to assess activity, comparing prices from multiple independent pricing services and ongoing due diligence to confirm that independent pricing services use market-based parameters. The 102 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 10. Fair Value (continued) process includes a determination of the observability of inputs used in estimated fair values received from independent pricing services or brokers by assessing whether these inputs can be corroborated by observable market data. The Company ensures that prices received from independent brokers, also referred to herein as "consensus pricing," represent a reasonable estimate of fair value by considering such pricing relative to the Company's knowledge of the current market dynamics and current pricing for similar financial instruments. While independent non-binding broker quotations are utilized, they are not used for a significant portion of the portfolio. For example, fixed maturity securities priced using independent non-binding broker quotations represent 1% of the total estimated fair value of fixed maturity securities and 12% of the total estimated fair value of Level 3 fixed maturity securities. The Company also applies a formal process to challenge any prices received from independent pricing services that are not considered representative of estimated fair value. If prices received from independent pricing services are not considered reflective of market activity or representative of estimated fair value, independent non-binding broker quotations are obtained, or an internally developed valuation is prepared. Internally developed valuations of current estimated fair value, which reflect internal estimates of liquidity and nonperformance risks, compared with pricing received from the independent pricing services, did not produce material differences in the estimated fair values for the majority of the portfolio; accordingly, overrides were not material. This is, in part, because internal estimates of liquidity and nonperformance risks are generally based on available market evidence and estimates used by other market participants. In the absence of such market-based evidence, management's best estimate is used. Securities, Short-term Investments, Long-term Debt and Trading Liabilities When available, the estimated fair value of these financial instruments is based on quoted prices in active markets that are readily and regularly obtainable. Generally, these are the most liquid of the Company's securities holdings and valuation of these securities does not involve management's judgment. When quoted prices in active markets are not available, the determination of estimated fair value is based on market standard valuation methodologies, giving priority to observable inputs. The significant inputs to the market standard valuation methodologies for certain types of securities with reasonable levels of price transparency are inputs that are observable in the market or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data. When observable inputs are not available, the market standard valuation methodologies rely on inputs that are significant to the estimated fair value that are not observable in the market or cannot be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data. These unobservable inputs can be based in large part on management's judgment or estimation and cannot be supported by reference to market activity. Even though these inputs are unobservable, management believes they are consistent with what other market participants would use when pricing such securities and are considered appropriate given the circumstances. The estimated fair value of FVO securities held by CSEs, long-term debt and trading liabilities is determined on a basis consistent with the methodologies described herein for securities. Level 2 Valuation Techniques and Key Inputs: This level includes securities priced principally by independent pricing services using observable inputs. Trading and FVO securities and short-term investments within this level are of a similar nature and class to the Level 2 fixed maturity securities and equity securities. 103 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 10. Fair Value (continued) U.S. corporate and foreign corporate securities These securities are principally valued using the market and income approaches. Valuations are based primarily on quoted prices in markets that are not active, or using matrix pricing or other similar techniques that use standard market observable inputs such as benchmark yields, spreads off benchmark yields, new issuances, issuer rating, duration, and trades of identical or comparable securities. Privately-placed securities are valued using matrix pricing methodologies using standard market observable inputs, and inputs derived from, or corroborated by, market observable data including market yield curve, duration, call provisions, observable prices and spreads for similar publicly traded or privately traded issues that incorporate the credit quality and industry sector of the issuer, and in certain cases, delta spread adjustments to reflect specific credit-related issues. U.S. Treasury and agency securities These securities are principally valued using the market approach. Valuations are based primarily on quoted prices in markets that are not active, or using matrix pricing or other similar techniques using standard market observable inputs such as a benchmark U.S. Treasury yield curve, the spread off the U.S. Treasury yield curve for the identical security and comparable securities that are actively traded. Structured securities comprised of RMBS, CMBS and ABS These securities are principally valued using the market and income approaches. Valuations are based primarily on matrix pricing, discounted cash flow methodologies or other similar techniques using standard market inputs, including spreads for actively traded securities, spreads off benchmark yields, expected prepayment speeds and volumes, current and forecasted loss severity, rating, weighted average coupon, weighted average maturity, average delinquency rates, geographic region, debt-service coverage ratios and issuance-specific information, including, but not limited to: collateral type, payment terms of the underlying assets, payment priority within the tranche, structure of the security, deal performance and vintage of loans. State and political subdivision and foreign government securities These securities are principally valued using the market approach. Valuations are based primarily on matrix pricing or other similar techniques using standard market observable inputs, including a benchmark U.S. Treasury yield or other yields, issuer ratings, broker-dealer quotes, issuer spreads and reported trades of similar securities, including those within the same sub-sector or with a similar maturity or credit rating. Common and non-redeemable preferred stock These securities are principally valued using the market approach. Valuations are based principally on observable inputs, including quoted prices in markets that are not considered active. Level 3 Valuation Techniques and Key Inputs: In general, securities classified within Level 3 use many of the same valuation techniques and inputs as described previously for Level 2. However, if key inputs are unobservable, or if the investments are less 104 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 10. Fair Value (continued) liquid and there is very limited trading activity, the investments are generally classified as Level 3. The use of independent non-binding broker quotations to value investments generally indicates there is a lack of liquidity or a lack of transparency in the process to develop the valuation estimates, generally causing these investments to be classified in Level 3. Trading and FVO securities and short-term investments within this level are of a similar nature and class to the Level 3 securities described below; accordingly, the valuation techniques and significant market standard observable inputs used in their valuation are also similar to those described below. U.S. corporate and foreign corporate securities These securities, including financial services industry hybrid securities classified within fixed maturity securities, are principally valued using the market approach. Valuations are based primarily on matrix pricing or other similar techniques that utilize unobservable inputs or inputs that cannot be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data, including illiquidity premium, delta spread adjustments to reflect specific credit-related issues, credit spreads; and inputs including quoted prices for identical or similar securities that are less liquid and based on lower levels of trading activity than securities classified in Level 2. Certain valuations are based on independent non-binding broker quotations. Structured securities comprised of RMBS, CMBS and ABS These securities are principally valued using the market and income approaches. Valuations are based primarily on matrix pricing, discounted cash flow methodologies or other similar techniques that utilize inputs that are unobservable or cannot be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data, including credit spreads. Below investment grade securities and sub-prime RMBS included in this level are valued based on inputs including quoted prices for identical or similar securities that are less liquid and based on lower levels of trading activity than securities classified in Level 2. Certain of these valuations are based on independent non-binding broker quotations. Foreign government securities These securities are principally valued using the market approach. Valuations are based primarily on independent non-binding broker quotations and inputs, including quoted prices for identical or similar securities that are less liquid and based on lower levels of trading activity than securities classified in Level 2. Certain valuations are based on matrix pricing that utilize inputs that are unobservable or cannot be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data, including credit spreads. Common and non-redeemable preferred stock These securities, including privately-held securities and financial services industry hybrid securities classified within equity securities, are principally valued using the market and income approaches. Valuations are based primarily on matrix pricing, discounted cash flow methodologies or other similar techniques using inputs such as comparable credit rating and issuance structure. Certain of these securities are valued based on inputs including quoted prices for identical or similar securities that are less liquid and based on lower levels of trading activity than securities classified in Level 2 and independent non-binding broker quotations. 105 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 10. Fair Value (continued) Mortgage Loans The Company has elected the FVO for certain residential mortgage loans held-for-investment. Level 3 Valuation Techniques and Key Inputs: Residential mortgage loans -- FVO For these investments, the estimated fair values are based primarily on matrix pricing or other similar techniques that utilize inputs that are unobservable or cannot be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data. Separate Account Assets Separate account assets are carried at estimated fair value and reported as a summarized total on the consolidated balance sheets. The estimated fair value of separate account assets is based on the estimated fair value of the underlying assets. Separate account assets include: mutual funds, fixed maturity securities, equity securities, derivatives, hedge funds, other limited partnership interests, short-term investments and cash and cash equivalents. Level 2 Valuation Techniques and Key Inputs: These assets are comprised of investments that are similar in nature to the instruments described under "-- Securities, Short-term Investments, Long-term Debt and Trading Liabilities" and "-- Derivatives -- Freestanding Derivatives." Also included are certain mutual funds and hedge funds without readily determinable fair values as prices are not published publicly. Valuation of the mutual funds and hedge funds is based upon quoted prices or reported NAV provided by the fund managers. Level 3 Valuation Techniques and Key Inputs: These assets are comprised of investments that are similar in nature to the instruments described under "-- Securities, Short-term Investments, Long-term Debt and Trading Liabilities" and "-- Derivatives -- Freestanding Derivatives." Also included are other limited partnership interests, which are valued giving consideration to the value of the underlying holdings of the partnerships and by applying a premium or discount, if appropriate, for factors such as liquidity, bid/ask spreads, the performance record of the fund manager or other relevant variables that may impact the exit value of the particular partnership interest. Derivatives The estimated fair value of derivatives is determined through the use of quoted market prices for exchange-traded derivatives, or through the use of pricing models for OTC-bilateral and OTC-cleared derivatives. The determination of estimated fair value, when quoted market values are not available, is based on market standard valuation methodologies and inputs that management believes are consistent with what other market participants would use when pricing such instruments. Derivative valuations can be affected by changes in interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, financial indices, credit spreads, default risk, nonperformance 106 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 10. Fair Value (continued) risk, volatility, liquidity and changes in estimates and assumptions used in the pricing models. The valuation controls and procedures for derivatives are described in "-- Investments." The significant inputs to the pricing models for most OTC-bilateral and OTC-cleared derivatives are inputs that are observable in the market or can be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data. Significant inputs that are observable generally include: interest rates, foreign currency exchange rates, interest rate curves, credit curves and volatility. However, certain OTC-bilateral and OTC-cleared derivatives may rely on inputs that are significant to the estimated fair value that are not observable in the market or cannot be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data. Significant inputs that are unobservable generally include references to emerging market currencies and inputs that are outside the observable portion of the interest rate curve, credit curve, volatility or other relevant market measure. These unobservable inputs may involve significant management judgment or estimation. Even though unobservable, these inputs are based on assumptions deemed appropriate given the circumstances and management believes they are consistent with what other market participants would use when pricing such instruments. Most inputs for OTC-bilateral and OTC-cleared derivatives are mid-market inputs but, in certain cases, liquidity adjustments are made when they are deemed more representative of exit value. Market liquidity, as well as the use of different methodologies, assumptions and inputs, may have a material effect on the estimated fair values of the Company's derivatives and could materially affect net income. The credit risk of both the counterparty and the Company are considered in determining the estimated fair value for all OTC-bilateral and OTC-cleared derivatives, and any potential credit adjustment is based on the net exposure by counterparty after taking into account the effects of netting agreements and collateral arrangements. The Company values its OTC-bilateral and OTC-cleared derivatives using standard swap curves which may include a spread to the risk free rate, depending upon specific collateral arrangements. This credit spread is appropriate for those parties that execute trades at pricing levels consistent with similar collateral arrangements. As the Company and its significant derivative counterparties generally execute trades at such pricing levels and hold sufficient collateral, additional credit risk adjustments are not currently required in the valuation process. The Company's ability to consistently execute at such pricing levels is in part due to the netting agreements and collateral arrangements that are in place with all of its significant derivative counterparties. An evaluation of the requirement to make additional credit risk adjustments is performed by the Company each reporting period. Freestanding Derivatives Level 2 Valuation Techniques and Key Inputs: This level includes all types of derivatives utilized by the Company with the exception of exchange-traded derivatives included within Level 1 and those derivatives with unobservable inputs as described in Level 3. These derivatives are principally valued using the income approach. Interest rate Non-option-based. Valuations are based on present value techniques, which utilize significant inputs that may include the swap yield curve and basis curves. 107 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 10. Fair Value (continued) Option-based. Valuations are based on option pricing models, which utilize significant inputs that may include the swap yield curve, basis curves and interest rate volatility. Foreign currency exchange rate Non-option-based. Valuations are based on present value techniques, which utilize significant inputs that may include the swap yield curve, basis curves, currency spot rates and cross currency basis curves. Credit Non-option-based. Valuations are based on present value techniques, which utilize significant inputs that may include the swap yield curve, credit curves and recovery rates. Equity market Option-based. Valuations are based on option pricing models, which utilize significant inputs that may include the swap yield curve, spot equity index levels, dividend yield curves and equity volatility. Level 3 Valuation Techniques and Key Inputs: These derivatives are principally valued using the income approach. Valuations of non-option-based derivatives utilize present value techniques, whereas valuations of option-based derivatives utilize option pricing models. These valuation methodologies generally use the same inputs as described in the corresponding sections above for Level 2 measurements of derivatives. However, these derivatives result in Level 3 classification because one or more of the significant inputs are not observable in the market or cannot be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data. Interest rate Non-option-based. Significant unobservable inputs may include the extrapolation beyond observable limits of the swap yield curve and basis curves. Foreign currency exchange rate Non-option-based. Significant unobservable inputs may include the extrapolation beyond observable limits of the swap yield curve, basis curves, cross currency basis curves and currency correlation. Credit Non-option-based. Significant unobservable inputs may include credit spreads, repurchase rates and the extrapolation beyond observable limits of the swap yield curve and credit curves. Certain of these derivatives are valued based on independent non-binding broker quotations. 108 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 10. Fair Value (continued) Embedded Derivatives Embedded derivatives principally include certain direct variable annuity guarantees, certain affiliated ceded reinsurance agreements related to such variable annuity guarantees, equity or bond indexed crediting rates within certain funding agreements and those related to ceded funds withheld on reinsurance. Embedded derivatives are recorded at estimated fair value with changes in estimated fair value reported in net income. The Company issues certain variable annuity products with guaranteed minimum benefits. GMWBs, GMABs and certain GMIBs contain embedded derivatives, which are measured at estimated fair value separately from the host variable annuity contract, with changes in estimated fair value reported in net derivative gains (losses). These embedded derivatives are classified within PABs in the consolidated balance sheets. The fair value of these embedded derivatives, estimated as the present value of projected future benefits minus the present value of projected future fees using actuarial and capital market assumptions including expectations concerning policyholder behavior, is calculated by the Company's actuarial department. The calculation is based on in-force business, and is performed using standard actuarial valuation software which projects future cash flows from the embedded derivative over multiple risk neutral stochastic scenarios using observable risk free rates. Capital market assumptions, such as risk free rates and implied volatilities, are based on market prices for publicly traded instruments to the extent that prices for such instruments are observable. Implied volatilities beyond the observable period are extrapolated based on observable implied volatilities and historical volatilities. Actuarial assumptions, including mortality, lapse, withdrawal and utilization, are unobservable and are reviewed at least annually based on actuarial studies of historical experience. The valuation of these guarantee liabilities includes nonperformance risk adjustments and adjustments for a risk margin related to non-capital market inputs. The nonperformance adjustment is determined by taking into consideration publicly available information relating to spreads in the secondary market for MetLife, Inc.'s debt, including related credit default swaps. These observable spreads are then adjusted, as necessary, to reflect the priority of these liabilities and the claims paying ability of the issuing insurance subsidiaries compared to MetLife, Inc. Risk margins are established to capture the non-capital market risks of the instrument which represent the additional compensation a market participant would require to assume the risks related to the uncertainties of such actuarial assumptions as annuitization, premium persistency, partial withdrawal and surrenders. The establishment of risk margins requires the use of significant management judgment, including assumptions of the amount and cost of capital needed to cover the guarantees. These guarantees may be more costly than expected in volatile or declining equity markets. Market conditions including, but not limited to, changes in interest rates, equity indices, market volatility and foreign currency exchange rates; changes in nonperformance risk; and variations in actuarial assumptions regarding policyholder behavior, mortality and risk margins related to non-capital market inputs, may result in significant fluctuations in the estimated fair value of the guarantees that could materially affect net income. The Company ceded the risk associated with certain of the GMIBs, GMABs and GMWBs previously described. In addition to ceding risks associated with guarantees that are accounted for as embedded derivatives, 109 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 10. Fair Value (continued) the Company also ceded directly written GMIBs that are accounted for as insurance (i.e., not as embedded derivatives) but where the reinsurance agreement contains an embedded derivative. These embedded derivatives are included within premiums, reinsurance and other receivables in the consolidated balance sheets with changes in estimated fair value reported in net derivative gains (losses). The value of the embedded derivatives on the ceded risk is determined using a methodology consistent with that described previously for the guarantees directly written by the Company with the exception of the input for nonperformance risk that reflects the credit of the reinsurer. The estimated fair value of the embedded derivatives within funds withheld related to certain ceded reinsurance is determined based on the change in estimated fair value of the underlying assets held by the Company in a reference portfolio backing the funds withheld liability. The estimated fair value of the underlying assets is determined as previously described in "-- Investments -- Securities, Short-term Investments, Long-term Debt and Trading Liabilities." The estimated fair value of these embedded derivatives is included, along with their funds withheld hosts, in other liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets with changes in estimated fair value recorded in net derivative gains (losses). Changes in the credit spreads on the underlying assets, interest rates and market volatility may result in significant fluctuations in the estimated fair value of these embedded derivatives that could materially affect net income. The estimated fair value of the embedded equity and bond indexed derivatives contained in certain funding agreements is determined using market standard swap valuation models and observable market inputs, including a nonperformance risk adjustment. The estimated fair value of these embedded derivatives are included, along with their funding agreements host, within PABs with changes in estimated fair value recorded in net derivative gains (losses). Changes in equity and bond indices, interest rates and the Company's credit standing may result in significant fluctuations in the estimated fair value of these embedded derivatives that could materially affect net income. Embedded Derivatives Within Asset and Liability Host Contracts Level 3 Valuation Techniques and Key Inputs: Direct guaranteed minimum benefits These embedded derivatives are principally valued using the income approach. Valuations are based on option pricing techniques, which utilize significant inputs that may include swap yield curve, currency exchange rates and implied volatilities. These embedded derivatives result in Level 3 classification because one or more of the significant inputs are not observable in the market or cannot be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data. Significant unobservable inputs generally include: the extrapolation beyond observable limits of the swap yield curve and implied volatilities, actuarial assumptions for policyholder behavior and mortality and the potential variability in policyholder behavior and mortality, nonperformance risk and cost of capital for purposes of calculating the risk margin. Reinsurance ceded on certain guaranteed minimum benefits These embedded derivatives are principally valued using the income approach. The valuation techniques and significant market standard unobservable inputs used in their valuation are similar to those described above in "-- Direct Guaranteed Minimum Benefits" and also include counterparty credit spreads. 110 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 10. Fair Value (continued) Embedded Derivatives Within Funds Withheld Related to Certain Ceded Reinsurance These embedded derivatives are principally valued using the income approach. The valuations are based on present value techniques, which utilize significant inputs that may include the swap yield curve and the fair value of assets within the reference portfolio. These embedded derivatives result in Level 3 classification because one or more of the significant inputs are not observable in the market or cannot be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data. Significant unobservable inputs generally include the fair value of certain assets within the reference portfolio which are not observable in the market and cannot be derived principally from, or corroborated by, observable market data. Transfers between Levels Overall, transfers between levels occur when there are changes in the observability of inputs and market activity. Transfers into or out of any level are assumed to occur at the beginning of the period. Transfers between Levels 1 and 2: For assets and liabilities measured at estimated fair value and still held at December 31, 2013, transfers between Levels 1 and 2 were not significant. There were no transfers between Levels 1 and 2 for assets and liabilities measured at estimated fair value and still held at December 31, 2012. Transfers into or out of Level 3: Assets and liabilities are transferred into Level 3 when a significant input cannot be corroborated with market observable data. This occurs when market activity decreases significantly and underlying inputs cannot be observed, current prices are not available, and/or when there are significant variances in quoted prices, thereby affecting transparency. Assets and liabilities are transferred out of Level 3 when circumstances change such that a significant input can be corroborated with market observable data. This may be due to a significant increase in market activity, a specific event, or one or more significant input(s) becoming observable. Transfers into Level 3 for fixed maturity securities and separate account assets were due primarily to a lack of trading activity, decreased liquidity and credit ratings downgrades (e.g., from investment grade to below investment grade) which have resulted in decreased transparency of valuations and an increased use of independent non-binding broker quotations and unobservable inputs, such as illiquidity premiums, delta spread adjustments, or credit spreads. Transfers out of Level 3 for fixed maturity securities and mortgage loans resulted primarily from increased transparency of both new issuances that, subsequent to issuance and establishment of trading activity, became priced by independent pricing services and existing issuances that, over time, the Company was able to obtain pricing from, or corroborate pricing received from, independent pricing services with observable inputs (such as observable spreads used in pricing securities) or increases in market activity and upgraded credit ratings. 111 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.)

-------- (1)The weighted average for fixed maturity securities is determined based on the estimated fair value of the securities. 112 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 10. Fair Value (continued) (2)The impact of a decrease in input would have the opposite impact on the estimated fair value. For embedded derivatives, changes to direct guaranteed minimum benefits are based on liability positions and changes to ceded guaranteed minimum benefits are based on asset positions. (3)Significant increases (decreases) in expected default rates in isolation would result in substantially lower (higher) valuations. (4)Range and weighted average are presented in basis points. (5)Range and weighted average are presented in accordance with the market convention for fixed maturity securities of dollars per hundred dollars of par. (6)Changes in the assumptions used for the probability of default is accompanied by a directionally similar change in the assumption used for the loss severity and a directionally opposite change in the assumptions used for prepayment rates. (7)Ranges represent the rates across different yield curves and are presented in basis points. The swap yield curve is utilized among different types of derivatives to project cash flows, as well as to discount future cash flows to present value. Since this valuation methodology uses a range of inputs across a yield curve to value the derivative, presenting a range is more representative of the unobservable input used in the valuation. (8)Ranges represent the different correlation factors utilized as components within the valuation methodology. Presenting a range of correlation factors is more representative of the unobservable input used in the valuation. Increases (decreases) in correlation in isolation will increase (decrease) the significance of the change in valuations. (9)Represents the risk quoted in basis points of a credit default event on the underlying instrument. The range being provided is a single quoted spread in the valuation model. Credit derivatives with significant unobservable inputs are primarily comprised of written credit default swaps. (10)At both December 31, 2013 and 2012, independent non-binding broker quotations were used in the determination of less than 1% of the total net derivative estimated fair value. (11)Changes are based on long U.S. dollar net asset positions and will be inversely impacted for short U.S. dollar net asset positions. (12)Mortality rates vary by age and by demographic characteristics such as gender. Mortality rate assumptions are based on company experience. A mortality improvement assumption is also applied. For any given contract, mortality rates vary throughout the period over which cash flows are projected for purposes of valuing the embedded derivative. (13)Base lapse rates are adjusted at the contract level based on a comparison of the actuarially calculated guaranteed values and the current policyholder account value, as well as other factors, such as the applicability of any surrender charges. A dynamic lapse function reduces the base lapse rate when the guaranteed amount is greater than the account value as in the money contracts are less likely to lapse. Lapse rates are also generally assumed to be lower in periods when a surrender charge applies. For any given contract, lapse rates vary throughout the period over which cash flows are projected for purposes of valuing the embedded derivative. (14)The utilization rate assumption estimates the percentage of contract holders with a GMIB or lifetime withdrawal benefit who will elect to utilize the benefit upon becoming eligible. The rates may vary by the 113 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 10. Fair Value (continued) type of guarantee, the amount by which the guaranteed amount is greater than the account value, the contract's withdrawal history and by the age of the policyholder. For any given contract, utilization rates vary throughout the period over which cash flows are projected for purposes of valuing the embedded derivative. (15)The withdrawal rate represents the percentage of account balance that any given policyholder will elect to withdraw from the contract each year. The withdrawal rate assumption varies by age and duration of the contract, and also by other factors such as benefit type. For any given contract, withdrawal rates vary throughout the period over which cash flows are projected for purposes of valuing the embedded derivative. For GMWBs, any increase (decrease) in withdrawal rates results in an increase (decrease) in the estimated fair value of the guarantees. For GMABs and GMIBs, any increase (decrease) in withdrawal rates results in a decrease (increase) in the estimated fair value. (16)Long-term equity volatilities represent equity volatility beyond the period for which observable equity volatilities are available. For any given contract, long-term equity volatility rates vary throughout the period over which cash flows are projected for purposes of valuing the embedded derivative. (17)Nonperformance risk spread varies by duration and by currency. For any given contract, multiple nonperformance risk spreads will apply, depending on the duration of the cash flow being discounted for purposes of valuing the embedded derivative. The following is a summary of the valuation techniques and significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of assets and liabilities classified within Level 3 that are not included in the preceding table. Generally, all other classes of securities classified within Level 3, including those within separate account assets and embedded derivatives within funds withheld related to certain ceded reinsurance, use the same valuation techniques and significant unobservable inputs as previously described for Level 3 securities. This includes matrix pricing and discounted cash flow methodologies, inputs such as quoted prices for identical or similar securities that are less liquid and based on lower levels of trading activity than securities classified in Level 2, as well as independent non-binding broker quotations. The residential mortgage loans -- FVO and long-term debt of CSEs -- FVO are valued using independent non-binding broker quotations and internal models including matrix pricing and discounted cash flow methodologies using current interest rates. The sensitivity of the estimated fair value to changes in the significant unobservable inputs for these other assets and liabilities is similar in nature to that described in the preceding table. The valuation techniques and significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement for the more significant assets measured at estimated fair value on a nonrecurring basis and determined using significant unobservable inputs (Level 3) are summarized in "--Nonrecurring Fair Value Measurements." 114 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.)

-------- (1)Estimated fair values for impaired mortgage loans are based on independent broker quotations or valuation models using unobservable inputs or, if the loans are in foreclosure or are otherwise determined to be collateral dependent, are based on the estimated fair value of the underlying collateral or the present value of the expected future cash flows. (2)For these cost method investments, estimated fair value is determined from information provided in the financial statements of the underlying entities including NAV data. These investments include private equity and debt funds that typically invest primarily in various strategies including domestic and international leveraged buyout funds; power, energy, timber and infrastructure development funds; venture capital funds; and below investment grade debt and mezzanine debt funds. Distributions will be generated from investment gains, from operating income from the underlying investments of the funds and from liquidation of the underlying assets of the funds. It is estimated that the underlying assets of the funds will be liquidated over the next two to 10 years. Unfunded commitments for these investments at both December 31, 2013 and 2012 were not significant. (3)For these cost method investments, estimated fair value is determined from information provided in the financial statements of the underlying entities including NAV data. These investments include several real estate funds that typically invest primarily in commercial real estate and mezzanine debt. Distributions will be generated from investment gains, from operating income from the underlying investments of the funds and from liquidation of the underlying assets of the funds. It is estimated that the underlying assets of the funds will be liquidated over the next one to 10 years. Unfunded commitments for these investments at both December 31, 2013 and 2012 were not significant. (4)As discussed in Note 11, in 2012, the Company recorded an impairment of goodwill associated with the Retail Annuities reporting unit. This impairment has been categorized as Level 3 due to the significant unobservable inputs used in the determination of the estimated fair value. 125 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 10. Fair Value (continued) Fair Value of Financial Instruments Carried at Other Than Fair Value The following tables provide fair value information for financial instruments that are carried on the balance sheet at amounts other than fair value. These tables exclude the following financial instruments: cash and cash equivalents, accrued investment income, payables for collateral under securities loaned and other transactions, short-term debt and those short-term investments that are not securities, such as time deposits, and therefore are not included in the three level hierarchy table disclosed in the "-- Recurring Fair Value Measurements" section. The estimated fair value of the excluded financial instruments, which are primarily classified in Level 2 and, to a lesser extent, in Level 1, approximates carrying value as they are short-term in nature such that the Company believes there is minimal risk of material changes in interest rates or credit quality. All remaining balance sheet amounts excluded from the table below are not considered financial instruments subject to this disclosure. The carrying values and estimated fair values for such financial instruments, and their corresponding placement in the fair value hierarchy, are summarized as follows at:

The methods, assumptions and significant valuation techniques and inputs used to estimate the fair value of financial instruments are summarized as follows: Mortgage Loans Mortgage loans held-for-investment For mortgage loans held-for-investment, estimated fair value is primarily determined by estimating expected future cash flows and discounting them using current interest rates for similar mortgage loans with similar credit risk, or is determined from pricing for similar loans. Mortgage loans held-for-sale For mortgage loans held-for-sale, estimated fair value is determined using independent non-binding broker quotations or internal valuation models using significant unobservable inputs. Policy Loans Policy loans with fixed interest rates are classified within Level 3. The estimated fair values for these loans are determined using a discounted cash flow model applied to groups of similar policy loans determined by the nature of the underlying insurance liabilities. Cash flow estimates are developed by applying a weighted-average interest rate to the outstanding principal balance of the respective group of policy loans and an estimated average maturity determined through experience studies of the past performance of policyholder repayment behavior for similar loans. These cash flows are discounted using current risk-free interest rates with no adjustment for borrower credit risk as these loans are fully collateralized by the cash surrender value of the 127 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 10. Fair Value (continued) underlying insurance policy. Policy loans with variable interest rates are classified within Level 2 and the estimated fair value approximates carrying value due to the absence of borrower credit risk and the short time period between interest rate resets, which presents minimal risk of a material change in estimated fair value due to changes in market interest rates. Real Estate Joint Ventures and Other Limited Partnership Interests The estimated fair values of these cost method investments are generally based on the Company's share of the NAV as provided in the financial statements of the investees. In certain circumstances, management may adjust the NAV by a premium or discount when it has sufficient evidence to support applying such adjustments. Other Invested Assets These other invested assets are principally comprised of loans to affiliates. The estimated fair value of loans to affiliates is determined by discounting the expected future cash flows using market interest rates currently available for instruments with similar terms and remaining maturities. Premiums, Reinsurance and Other Receivables Premiums, reinsurance and other receivables are principally comprised of certain amounts recoverable under reinsurance agreements, amounts on deposit with financial institutions to facilitate daily settlements related to certain derivatives and amounts receivable for securities sold but not yet settled. Amounts recoverable under ceded reinsurance agreements, which the Company has determined do not transfer significant risk such that they are accounted for using the deposit method of accounting, have been classified as Level 3. The valuation is based on discounted cash flow methodologies using significant unobservable inputs. The estimated fair value is determined using interest rates determined to reflect the appropriate credit standing of the assuming counterparty. The amounts on deposit for derivative settlements, classified within Level 2, essentially represent the equivalent of demand deposit balances and amounts due for securities sold are generally received over short periods such that the estimated fair value approximates carrying value. PABs These PABs include investment contracts. Embedded derivatives on investment contracts and certain variable annuity guarantees accounted for as embedded derivatives are excluded from this caption in the preceding tables as they are separately presented in "-- Recurring Fair Value Measurements." The investment contracts primarily include certain funding agreements, fixed deferred annuities, modified guaranteed annuities, fixed term payout annuities and total control accounts. The valuation of these investment contracts is based on discounted cash flow methodologies using significant unobservable inputs. The estimated fair value is determined using current market risk-free interest rates adding a spread to reflect the nonperformance risk in the liability. 128 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 10. Fair Value (continued) Long-term Debt The estimated fair values of long-term debt is principally determined using market standard valuation methodologies. Valuations are based primarily on quoted prices in markets that are not active or using matrix pricing that use standard market observable inputs such as quoted prices in markets that are not active and observable yields and spreads in the market. Instruments valued using discounted cash flow methodologies use standard market observable inputs including market yield curve, duration, observable prices and spreads for similar publicly traded or privately traded issues. Capital leases, which are not required to be disclosed at estimated fair value, and debt carried at fair value are excluded from the preceding tables. Other Liabilities Other liabilities consist primarily of interest payable, amounts due for securities purchased but not yet settled, funds withheld amounts payable, which are contractually withheld by the Company in accordance with the terms of the reinsurance agreements, and amounts payable under certain assumed reinsurance agreements, which are recorded using the deposit method of accounting. The Company evaluates the specific terms, facts and circumstances of each instrument to determine the appropriate estimated fair values, which are not materially different from the carrying values, with the exception of certain deposit type reinsurance payables. For such payables, the estimated fair value is determined as the present value of expected future cash flows, which are discounted using an interest rate determined to reflect the appropriate credit standing of the assuming counterparty. Separate Account Liabilities Separate account liabilities represent those balances due to policyholders under contracts that are classified as investment contracts. Separate account liabilities classified as investment contracts primarily represent variable annuities with no significant mortality risk to the Company such that the death benefit is equal to the account balance, funding agreements related to group life contracts and certain contracts that provide for benefit funding. Since separate account liabilities are fully funded by cash flows from the separate account assets which are recognized at estimated fair value as described in the section "-- Recurring Fair Value Measurements," the value of those assets approximates the estimated fair value of the related separate account liabilities. The valuation techniques and inputs for separate account liabilities are similar to those described for separate account assets. 11. Goodwill Goodwill, which is included in other assets, is the excess of cost over the estimated fair value of net assets acquired. Goodwill is not amortized but is tested for impairment at least annually or more frequently if events or circumstances, such as adverse changes in the business climate, indicate that there may be justification for conducting an interim test. Step 1 of the goodwill impairment process requires a comparison of the fair value of a reporting unit to its carrying value. In performing the Company's goodwill impairment tests, the estimated fair 129 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 11. Goodwill (continued) values of the reporting units are first determined using a market multiple valuation approach. When further corroboration is required, the Company uses a discounted cash flow valuation approach. For reporting units which are particularly sensitive to market assumptions, the Company may use additional valuation methodologies to estimate the reporting units' fair values. The market multiple valuation approach utilizes market multiples of companies with similar businesses and the projected operating earnings of the reporting unit. The discounted cash flow valuation approach requires judgments about revenues, operating earnings projections, capital market assumptions and discount rates. The key inputs, judgments and assumptions necessary in determining estimated fair value of the reporting units include projected operating earnings, current book value, the level of economic capital required to support the mix of business, long-term growth rates, comparative market multiples, the account value of in-force business, projections of new and renewal business, as well as margins on such business, the level of interest rates, credit spreads, equity market levels, and the discount rate that the Company believes is appropriate for the respective reporting unit. The valuation methodologies utilized are subject to key judgments and assumptions that are sensitive to change. Estimates of fair value are inherently uncertain and represent only management's reasonable expectation regarding future developments. These estimates and the judgments and assumptions upon which the estimates are based will, in all likelihood, differ in some respects from actual future results. Declines in the estimated fair value of the Company's reporting units could result in goodwill impairments in future periods which could materially adversely affect the Company's results of operations or financial position. During the 2013 annual goodwill impairment tests, the Company concluded that the fair values of all reporting units were in excess of their carrying values and, therefore, goodwill was not impaired. Information regarding goodwill by segment, as well as Corporate & Other, was as follows:

(2)In September 2012, MetLife, Inc. and MetLife Funding, Inc. entered into a $1.0 billion five-year credit agreement which amended and restated the three-year agreement dated October 2010. All borrowings under the 2012 five-year credit agreement must be repaid by September 2017, except that letters of credit outstanding on that date may remain outstanding until no later than September 2018. The Company incurred costs of $2 million related to the amended and restated credit facility, which have been capitalized and included in other assets. These costs are being amortized over the remaining term of the amended and restated credit facility. (3)In October 2013, availability under the unsecured credit facilities increased by $1.9 billion, as MetLife, Inc. no longer required and therefore canceled $1.9 billion of outstanding letters of credit. See Note 20. Committed Facility The committed facility is used for collateral for certain of the Company's affiliated reinsurance liabilities. Total fees expensed associated with this committed facility were $3 million for each of the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011 and are included in other expenses.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 13. Equity Capital Contributions During the year ended December 31, 2011, United MetLife Insurance Company Limited ("United"), an insurance underwriting joint venture of the Company accounted for under the equity method, merged with Sino-US MetLife Insurance Company Limited ("Sino"), another insurance underwriting joint venture of an affiliate of the Company. The Company's ownership interest in the merged entity, Sino-US United MetLife Insurance Company Limited ("Sino-United") was determined based on its contributed capital and share of undistributed earnings of United compared to the contributed capital and undistributed earnings of all other owners of United and Sino. Since both of the joint ventures were under common ownership both prior to and subsequent to the merger, the Company's investment in Sino-United is based on the carrying value of its investment in United. Pursuant to the merger, the Company entered into an agreement whereby the affiliate will pay an amount to the Company based on the relative fair values of their respective investments in Sino-United. Accordingly, upon completion of the estimation of fair value, $47 million, representing a capital contribution, was received during the year ended December 31, 2011. The Company's investment in Sino-United is accounted for under the equity method and is included in other invested assets. During each of the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, MetLife, Inc. contributed $3 million in the form of payment of line of credit fees on the Company's behalf. Stock-Based Compensation Plans Overview The stock-based compensation expense recognized by the Company is related to awards payable in shares of MetLife, Inc. common stock ("Shares"), or options to purchase MetLife, Inc. common stock. The Company does not issue any awards payable in its common stock or options to purchase its common stock. Description of Plans for Employees and Agents -- General Terms The MetLife, Inc. 2000 Stock Incentive Plan, as amended (the "2000 Stock Plan") authorized the granting of awards to employees and agents in the form of options ("Stock Options") to buy Shares that either qualify as incentive Stock Options under Section 422A of the Code or are non-qualified. By December 31, 2009, all awards under the 2000 Stock Plan had either vested or been forfeited. No awards have been made under the 2000 Stock Plan since 2005. Under the MetLife, Inc. 2005 Stock and Incentive Compensation Plan (the "2005 Stock Plan"), awards granted to employees and agents may be in the form of Stock Options, Stock Appreciation Rights, Restricted Stock or Restricted Stock Units, Performance Shares or Performance Share Units, Cash-Based Awards and Stock-Based Awards (each as defined in the 2005 Stock Plan with reference to Shares). The aggregate number of shares authorized for issuance under the 2005 Stock Plan is 68,000,000, plus those shares available but not utilized under the 2000 Stock Plan and those shares utilized under the 2000 Stock Plan that are recovered due to forfeiture of Stock Options. Each share issued under the 2005 Stock Plan in connection with a Stock Option or Stock Appreciation Right reduces the number of Shares remaining for issuance under that plan by one, and each Share issued under the 2005 Stock Plan in connection with awards other than Stock 134 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 13. Equity (continued) Options or Stock Appreciation Rights reduces the number of Shares remaining for issuance under that plan by 1.179 Shares. At December 31, 2013, the aggregate number of Shares remaining available for issuance pursuant to the 2005 Stock Plan was 20,098,440. Stock Option exercises and other awards settled in Shares are satisfied through the issuance of Shares held in treasury by MetLife, Inc. or by the issuance of new Shares. Of MetLife, Inc.'s stock-based compensation expense for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012, and 2011, 69%, 76% and 70%, respectively, was allocated to the Company. No expense amounts related to stock-based awards to MetLife, Inc. non-management directors were allocated to the Company. This allocation represents substantially all stock-based compensation recognized in the Company's consolidated results of operations. Accordingly, this discussion addresses MetLife, Inc.'s practices for recognizing expense for awards under the 2000 Stock Plan and 2005 Stock Plan (together, the "Incentive Plans"). References to compensation expense in this note refer to the Company's allocated portion of that expense. All other references relevant to awards under the Incentive Plans pertain to all awards under those plans. Compensation expense related to awards under the 2005 Stock Plan is recognized based on the number of awards expected to vest, which represents the awards granted less expected forfeitures over the life of the award, as estimated at the date of grant. Unless a material deviation from the assumed forfeiture rate is observed during the term in which the awards are expensed, any adjustment necessary to reflect differences in actual experience is recognized in the period the award becomes payable or exercisable. Compensation expense related to awards under the 2005 Stock Plan is principally related to the issuance of Stock Options, Performance Shares and Restricted Stock Units. The majority of the awards granted by MetLife, Inc. each year under the 2005 Stock Plan are made in the first quarter of each year. Compensation Expense Related to Stock-Based Compensation The components of compensation expense related to stock-based compensation were as follows:

Equity Awards Stock Options Stock Options are the contingent right of award holders to purchase Shares at a stated price for a limited time. All Stock Options have an exercise price equal to the closing price of a Share reported on the New York Stock Exchange on the date of grant, and have a maximum term of 10 years. The vast majority of Stock Options granted have become or will become exercisable at a rate of one-third of each award on each of the first three anniversaries of the grant date. Other Stock Options have become or will become exercisable on the third anniversary of the grant date. Vesting is subject to continued service, except for employees who are retirement eligible and in certain other limited circumstances. A summary of the activity related to Stock Options was as follows:

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 13. Equity (continued) The fair value of Stock Options is estimated on the date of grant using a binomial lattice model. Significant assumptions used in MetLife, Inc.'s binomial lattice model are further described below. The assumptions include: expected volatility of the price of Shares; risk-free rate of return; dividend yield on Shares; exercise multiple; and the post-vesting termination rate. Expected volatility is based upon an analysis of historical prices of Shares and call options on Shares traded on the open market. MetLife, Inc. uses a weighted-average of the implied volatility for publicly-traded call options with the longest remaining maturity nearest to the money as of each valuation date and the historical volatility, calculated using monthly closing prices of Shares. MetLife, Inc. chose a monthly measurement interval for historical volatility as this interval reflects MetLife, Inc.'s view that employee option exercise decisions are based on longer-term trends in the price of the underlying Shares rather than on daily price movements. The binomial lattice model used by MetLife, Inc. incorporates different risk-free rates based on the imputed forward rates for U.S. Treasury Strips for each year over the contractual term of the option. The table below presents the full range of rates that were used for options granted during the respective periods. Dividend yield is determined based on historical dividend distributions compared to the price of the underlying Shares as of the valuation date and held constant over the life of the Stock Option. The binomial lattice model used by MetLife, Inc. incorporates the contractual term of the Stock Options. The model also factors in expected exercise behavior and a post-vesting termination rate, or the rate at which vested options are exercised or expire prematurely due to termination of employment. From these factors, the model derives an expected life of the Stock Option. The exercise behavior in the model is a multiple that reflects the ratio of exercise price to the strike price of the Stock Option at which holders are expected to exercise. The exercise multiple is derived from actual historical exercise activity. The post-vesting termination rate is determined from actual historical exercise experience and expiration activity under the Incentive Plans. The following table presents the weighted average assumptions, with the exception of risk-free rate, which is expressed as a range, used to determine the fair value of Stock Options issued:
Years Ended December 31, ----------------------------------- 2013 2012 2011 ----------- ----------- ----------- Dividend yield........................................... 2.13% 1.95% 1.65% Risk-free rate of return................................. 0.16%-3.89% 0.21%-4.17% 0.29%-5.51% Expected volatility...................................... 32.98% 35.59% 32.64% Exercise multiple........................................ 1.51 1.58 1.69 Post-vesting termination rate............................ 3.16% 3.14% 3.36% Contractual term (years)................................. 10 10 10 Expected life (years).................................... 7 7 7 Weighted average exercise price of stock options granted. $35.96 $37.91 $45.16 Weighted average fair value of stock options granted..... $9.88 $11.33 $14.27
MetLife, Inc. deducts 35% of the compensation amount of a Stock Option from its income on its tax return. The compensation amount is the price of shares on the date the Stock Option is exercised less the exercise 137 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 13. Equity (continued) price of the Stock Option. This tax benefit is allocated to the subsidiary of MetLife, Inc. that is the current or former employer of the associate, or is or was the principal for the non-employee insurance agent, who exercised the Stock Option.

Performance Shares Performance Shares are units that, if they vest, are multiplied by a performance factor to produce a number of final Performance Shares which are payable in Shares. Performance Shares are accounted for as equity awards, but are not credited with dividend-equivalents for actual dividends paid on Shares during the performance period. Performance Share awards normally vest in their entirety at the end of the three-year performance period. Vesting is subject to continued service, except for employees who are retirement eligible and in certain other limited circumstances. For awards granted prior to the January 1, 2013 - December 31, 2015 performance period, vested Performance Shares are multiplied by a performance factor of 0.0 to 2.0 based on MetLife, Inc.'s adjusted income, total shareholder return, and performance in change in annual net operating earnings and total shareholder return compared to the performance of its competitors, each measured with respect to the applicable three-year performance period or portions thereof. The estimated fair value of Performance Shares is based upon the closing price of a Share on the date of grant, reduced by the present value of estimated dividends to be paid on that stock during the performance period. The performance factor for the January 1, 2010 - December 31, 2012 performance period was 0.92. For the January 1, 2013 - December 31, 2015 performance period, the vested Performance Shares will be multiplied by a performance factor of 0.00 to 1.75. Assuming that MetLife, Inc. has met threshold performance goals related to its adjusted income or total shareholder return, the MetLife, Inc. Compensation Committee will determine the performance factor in its discretion. In doing so, the Compensation Committee may consider MetLife, Inc.'s total shareholder return relative to the performance of its competitors and MetLife, Inc.'s operating return on equity relative to its financial plan. The estimated fair value of Performance Shares will be remeasured each quarter until they become payable. Restricted Stock Units Restricted Stock Units are units that, if they vest, are payable in an equal number of Shares. Restricted Stock Units are accounted for as equity awards and are not credited with dividend-equivalents for dividends paid on Shares. Accordingly, the estimated fair value of Restricted Stock Units is based upon the closing price of Shares on the date of grant, reduced by the present value of estimated dividends to be paid on that stock. 138 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 13. Equity (continued) The vast majority of Restricted Stock Units normally vest in their entirety on the third anniversary of their grant date. Other Restricted Stock Units normally vest in thirds on the first three anniversaries of their grant date, and others vest in their entirety on the fifth anniversary of their grant date. Vesting is subject to continued service, except for employees who are retirement eligible and in certain other limited circumstances. The following table presents a summary of Performance Share and Restricted Stock Unit activity:

-------- (1)Includes both Shares paid and Shares deferred for later payment. Performance Share amounts above represent aggregate initial target awards and do not reflect potential increases or decreases resulting from the performance factor determined after the end of the respective performance periods. At December 31, 2013, the three year performance period for the 2011 Performance Share grants was completed, but the performance factor had not yet been calculated. Included in the immediately preceding table are 1,545,020 outstanding Performance Shares to which the 2011 - 2013 performance factor will be applied. The factor will be determined in the second quarter of 2014. Statutory Equity and Income Each U.S. insurance company's state of domicile imposes risk-based capital ("RBC") requirements that were developed by the National Association of Insurance Commissioners ("NAIC"). Regulatory compliance is determined by a ratio of a company's total adjusted capital, calculated in the manner prescribed by the NAIC ("TAC") to its authorized control level RBC, calculated in the manner prescribed by the NAIC ("ACL RBC"). Companies below specific trigger points or ratios are classified within certain levels, each of which requires specified corrective action. The minimum level of TAC before corrective action commences is twice ACL RBC ("Company Action RBC"). The RBC ratios for Metropolitan Life Insurance Company and each of its insurance subsidiaries were in excess of 400% for all periods presented. The New York State Department of Financial Services issues an annual "Special Considerations" circular letter to New York licensed insurers dictating tests to be performed as part of insurers' year-end asset adequacy testing. The New York State Department of Financial Services issued its 2013 Special Considerations letter on October 31, 2013. The letter mandates the use of certain assumptions in the 2013 asset adequacy testing. Metropolitan Life Insurance Company will grade in over three years the amount of LTC reserves required as a result of the new assumptions. Under this grade-in, Metropolitan Life Insurance Company increased its asset 139 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 13. Equity (continued) adequacy reserves for LTC policies by $300 million as of December 31, 2013 and will increase such reserves by approximately $200 million and $100 million as of December 31, 2014 and 2015, respectively. The actual 2014 and 2015 amounts may differ from current estimates due to changes in economic conditions, regulation, or policyholder behavior. Metropolitan Life Insurance Company and its insurance subsidiaries prepare statutory-basis financial statements in accordance with statutory accounting practices prescribed or permitted by the insurance department of their respective state of domicile. The NAIC has adopted the Codification of Statutory Accounting Principles ("Statutory Codification"). Statutory Codification is intended to standardize regulatory accounting and reporting to state insurance departments. However, statutory accounting principles continue to be established by individual state laws and permitted practices. Modifications by the various state insurance departments may impact the effect of Statutory Codification on the statutory capital and surplus of Metropolitan Life Insurance Company and its insurance subsidiaries. Statutory accounting principles differ from GAAP primarily by charging policy acquisition costs to expense as incurred, establishing future policy benefit liabilities using different actuarial assumptions, reporting surplus notes as surplus instead of debt, reporting of reinsurance agreements and valuing securities on a different basis. In addition, certain assets are not admitted under statutory accounting principles and are charged directly to surplus. The most significant assets not admitted by the Company are net deferred income tax assets resulting from temporary differences between statutory accounting principles basis and tax basis not expected to reverse and become recoverable within three years. Statutory net income (loss) of Metropolitan Life Insurance Company, a New York domiciled insurer was $369 million, $1.3 billion and $2.0 billion for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Statutory capital and surplus was $12.4 billion and $14.3 billion at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. All such amounts are derived from the statutory-basis financial statements as filed with the New York State Department of Financial Services. Statutory net income (loss) of New England Life Insurance Company ("NELICO"), a Massachusetts domiciled insurer, was $103 million, $79 million and $63 million for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Statutory capital and surplus was $571 million and $539 million at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. All such amounts are derived from the statutory-basis financial statements as filed with the Massachusetts State Division of Insurance. Statutory net income (loss) of GALIC, a Missouri domiciled insurer, was $60 million, $19 million and $128 million for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Statutory capital and surplus was $818 million and $873 million at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. All such amounts are derived from the statutory-basis financial statements as filed with the Missouri State Department of Insurance. Dividend Restrictions Under New York State Insurance Law, Metropolitan Life Insurance Company is permitted, without prior insurance regulatory clearance, to pay stockholder dividends to MetLife, Inc. as long as the aggregate amount of all such dividends in any calendar year does not exceed the lesser of: (i) 10% of its surplus to policyholders as of the end of the immediately preceding calendar year or (ii) its statutory net gain from operations for the immediately preceding calendar year (excluding realized capital gains). Metropolitan Life Insurance Company will be permitted 140 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 13. Equity (continued) to pay a dividend to MetLife, Inc. in excess of the lesser of such two amounts only if it files notice of its intention to declare such a dividend and the amount thereof with the New York Superintendent of Financial Services (the "Superintendent") and the Superintendent either approves the distribution of the dividend or does not disapprove the dividend within 30 days of its filing. Under New York State Insurance Law, the Superintendent has broad discretion in determining whether the financial condition of a stock life insurance company would support the payment of such dividends to its stockholders. During the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, Metropolitan Life Insurance Company paid a dividend of $1.4 billion and $1.0 billion, respectively. During the year ended December 31, 2011, Metropolitan Life Insurance Company paid a dividend of $1.3 billion, of which $170 million was a transfer of securities. Based on amounts at December 31, 2013, Metropolitan Life Insurance Company could pay a stockholder dividend in 2014 of $1.1 billion without prior approval of the Superintendent. Under Massachusetts State Insurance Law, NELICO is permitted, without prior insurance regulatory clearance, to pay a stockholder dividend to Metropolitan Life Insurance Company as long as the aggregate amount of the dividend, when aggregated with all other dividends paid in the preceding 12 months, does not exceed the greater of: (i) 10 % of its surplus to policyholders as of the end of the immediately preceding calendar year; or (ii) its statutory net gain from operations for the immediately preceding calendar year. NELICO will be permitted to pay a dividend to Metropolitan Life Insurance Company in excess of the greater of such two amounts only if it files notice of the declaration of such a dividend and the amount thereof with the Massachusetts Commissioner of Insurance (the "Massachusetts Commissioner") and the Massachusetts Commissioner either approves the distribution of the dividend or does not disapprove the distribution within 30 days of its filing. In addition, any dividend that exceeds earned surplus (defined as "unassigned funds (surplus)") as of the last filed annual statutory statement requires insurance regulatory approval. Under Massachusetts State Insurance Law, the Massachusetts Commissioner has broad discretion in determining whether the financial condition of a stock life insurance company would support the payment of such dividends to its stockholders. During the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, NELICO paid a dividend of $77 million, $46 million and $107 million, respectively. Based on amounts at December 31, 2013, NELICO could pay a stockholder dividend in 2014 of $102 million without prior approval of the Massachusetts Commissioner. Under Missouri State Insurance Law, GALIC is permitted, without prior insurance regulatory clearance, to pay a stockholder dividend to Metropolitan Life Insurance Company as long as the amount of such dividend when aggregated with all other dividends in the preceding 12 months, does not exceed the greater of: (i) 10% of its surplus to policyholders as of the end of the immediately preceding calendar year; or (ii) its statutory net gain from operations for the immediately preceding calendar year (excluding net realized capital gains). GALIC will be permitted to pay a dividend to Metropolitan Life Insurance Company in excess of the greater of such two amounts only if it files notice of the declaration of such a dividend and the amount thereof with the Missouri Director of Insurance (the "Missouri Director") and the Missouri Director either approves the distribution of the dividend or does not disapprove the distribution within 30 days of its filing. In addition, any dividend that exceeds earned surplus (defined by the Company as "unassigned funds (surplus)") as of the last filed annual statutory statement requires insurance regulatory approval. Under Missouri State Insurance Law, the Missouri Director has broad discretion in determining whether the financial condition of a stock life insurance company would support the payment of such dividends to its stockholders. During the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, GALIC did not pay dividends to Metropolitan Life Insurance Company. During the year ended December 31, 2011, GALIC paid an extraordinary cash dividend to GenAmerica Financial, LLC ("GenAmerica"), its former parent, of $183 million and GenAmerica subsequently paid an ordinary dividend to Metropolitan Life Insurance Company of $183 million. Based on amounts at December 31, 2013, GALIC could pay a stockholder dividend in 2014 of $81 million without prior approval of the Missouri Director. 141 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.)

This global strategy focuses on leveraging MetLife, Inc. and its subsidiaries' scale to improve the value they provide to customers and shareholders in order to reduce costs, enhance revenues, achieve efficiencies and reinvest in their technology, platforms and functionality to improve their current operations and develop new capabilities. 144 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 14. Other Expenses (continued) These restructuring charges are included in other expenses. As the expenses relate to an enterprise-wide initiative, they are reported in Corporate & Other. Estimated restructuring costs may change as management continues to execute this enterprise-wide strategic initiative. Such restructuring charges which were allocated to the Company were as follows:

Management anticipates further restructuring charges including severance, as well as lease and asset impairments, through the year ending December 31, 2015. However, such restructuring plans were not sufficiently developed to enable MetLife, Inc. to make an estimate of such restructuring charges at December 31, 2013. 15. Employee Benefit Plans Pension and Other Postretirement Benefit Plans The Company sponsors and administers various U.S. qualified and non-qualified defined benefit pension plans and other postretirement employee benefit plans covering employees and sales representatives who meet specified eligibility requirements. Pension benefits are provided utilizing either a traditional formula or cash balance formula. The traditional formula provides benefits based upon years of credited service and final average earnings. The cash balance formula utilizes hypothetical or notional accounts which credit participants with benefits equal to a percentage of eligible pay, as well as earnings credits, determined annually based upon the average annual rate of interest on 30-year U.S. Treasury securities, for each account balance. At December 31, 2013, the majority of active participants were accruing benefits under the cash balance formula; however, 90% of the Company's obligations result from benefits calculated with the traditional formula. The non-qualified pension plans provide supplemental benefits in excess of limits applicable to a qualified plan. Participating affiliates are allocated a proportionate share of net expense related to the plans as well as contributions made to the plans. The Company also provides certain postemployment benefits and certain postretirement medical and life insurance benefits for retired employees. Employees of the Company who were hired prior to 2003 (or, in certain cases, rehired during or after 2003) and meet age and service criteria while working for the Company may become eligible for these other postretirement benefits, at various levels, in accordance with the applicable plans. Virtually all retirees, or their beneficiaries, contribute a portion of the total costs of postretirement medical benefits. Employees hired after 2003 are not eligible for any employer subsidy for postretirement medical benefits. Participating affiliates are allocated a proportionate share of net expense and contributions related to the postemployment and other postretirement plans. 145 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.)

Net Periodic Benefit Costs Net periodic benefit costs are determined using management estimates and actuarial assumptions to derive service costs, interest costs and expected return on plan assets for a particular year. Net periodic benefit costs also includes the applicable amortization of net actuarial gains (losses) and amortization of any prior service costs (credit). The obligations and expenses associated with these plans require an extensive use of assumptions such as the discount rate, expected rate of return on plan assets, rate of future compensation increases, healthcare cost trend rates, as well as assumptions regarding participant demographics such as rate and age of retirements, withdrawal rates and mortality. Management, in consultation with its external consulting actuarial firms, determines these assumptions based upon a variety of factors such as historical performance of the plan and its assets, currently available market and industry data and expected benefit payout streams. The assumptions used may differ materially from actual results due to, among other factors, changing market and economic conditions and changes in participant demographics. These differences may have a significant effect on the Company's consolidated financial statements and liquidity. Net periodic pension costs and net periodic other postretirement benefit plan costs are comprised of the following: . Service Costs -- Service costs are the increase in the projected (expected) PBO resulting from benefits payable to employees of the Company on service rendered during the current year. . Interest Costs -- Interest costs are the time value adjustment on the projected (expected) PBO at the end of each year. 147 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 15. Employee Benefit Plans (continued) . Settlement and Curtailment Costs -- The aggregate amount of net gains (losses) recognized in net periodic benefit costs due to settlements and curtailments. Settlements result from actions that relieve/eliminate the plan's responsibility for benefit obligations or risks associated with the obligations or assets used for the settlement. Curtailments result from an event that significantly reduces/eliminates plan participants' expected years of future services or benefit accruals. . Expected Return on Plan Assets -- Expected return on plan assets is the assumed return earned by the accumulated pension and other postretirement fund assets in a particular year. . Amortization of Net Actuarial Gains (Losses) -- Actuarial gains and losses result from differences between the actual experience and the expected experience on pension and other postretirement plan assets or projected (expected) PBO during a particular period. These gains and losses are accumulated and, to the extent they exceed 10% of the greater of the PBO or the fair value of plan assets, the excess is amortized into pension and other postretirement benefit costs over the expected service years of the employees. . Amortization of Prior Service Costs (Credit) -- These costs relate to the recognition of increases or decreases in pension and other postretirement benefit obligation due to amendments in plans or initiation of new plans. These increases or decreases in obligation are recognized in AOCI at the time of the amendment. These costs are then amortized to pension and other postretirement benefit costs over the expected service years of the employees affected by the change. The Company's proportionate share of components of net periodic benefit costs and other changes in plan assets and benefit obligations recognized in OCI were as follows:

148 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 15. Employee Benefit Plans (continued) For the year ended December 31, 2013, included within OCI were other changes in plan assets and benefit obligations associated with pension benefits of ($717) million and other postretirement benefits of ($512) million for an aggregate increase in OCI of $1.2 billion before income tax and $798 million, net of income tax. The estimated net actuarial (gains) losses and prior service costs (credit) for the pension plans and the defined benefit other postretirement benefit plans that will be amortized from AOCI into net periodic benefit costs over the next year are $147 million and $4 million, and $6 million and ($1) million, respectively. Assumptions Assumptions used in determining benefit obligations were as follows:
Pension Benefits Other Postretirement Benefits -------------------------- ------------------------------ December 31, ---------------------------------------------------------- 2013 2012 2013 2012 ------------ ------------ ---- ---- Weighted average discount rate. 5.15% 4.20% 5.15% 4.20% Rate of compensation increase.. 3.50% - 7.50% 3.50% - 7.50% N/A N/A
Assumptions used in determining net periodic benefit costs were as follows:
Pension Benefits Other Postretirement Benefits ----------------------------------------- ----------------------------- December 31, ---------------------------------------------------------------------- 2013 2012 2011 2013 2012 2011 ------------- ------------- ------------- ----- ---- ---- Weighted average discount rate.... 4.20% 4.95% 5.80% 4.20% 4.95% 5.80% Weighted average expected rate of return on plan assets........... 6.24% 7.00% 7.25% 5.76% 6.26% 7.25% Rate of compensation increase..... 3.50% - 7.50% 3.50% - 7.50% 3.50% - 7.50% N/A N/A N/A
The weighted average discount rate is determined annually based on the yield, measured on a yield to worst basis, of a hypothetical portfolio constructed of high quality debt instruments available on the valuation date, which would provide the necessary future cash flows to pay the aggregate projected benefit obligation when due. The weighted average expected rate of return on plan assets is based on anticipated performance of the various asset sectors in which the plan invests, weighted by target allocation percentages. Anticipated future performance is based on long-term historical returns of the plan assets by sector, adjusted for the Company's long-term expectations on the performance of the markets. While the precise expected rate of return derived using this approach will fluctuate from year to year, the Company's policy is to hold this long-term assumption constant as long as it remains within reasonable tolerance from the derived rate. The weighted average expected rate of return on plan assets for use in that plan's valuation in 2014 is currently anticipated to be 6.24% for pension benefits and 5.64% for other postretirement benefits. 149 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 15. Employee Benefit Plans (continued) The assumed healthcare costs trend rates used in measuring the APBO and net periodic benefit costs were as follows:
December 31, ------------------------------------------------------------------------- 2013 2012 -------------------------------------- ---------------------------------- 6.4% in 2014, gradually 7.8% in 2013, gradually decreasing each year until 2094 decreasing each year until 2094 reaching the ultimate rate of 4.4% for reaching the ultimate rate of 4.4% Pre-and Post-Medicare eligible Pre-Medicare and 4.6% for for Pre-Medicare and 4.6% for claims....................... Post-Medicare. Post-Medicare.
Assumed healthcare costs trend rates may have a significant effect on the amounts reported for healthcare plans. A 1% change in assumed healthcare costs trend rates would have the following effects as of December 31, 2013:
One Percent One Percent Increase Decrease ------------ ------------ (In millions) Effect on total of service and interest costs components. $ 16 $ (13) Effect of accumulated postretirement benefit obligations. $ 237 $ (194)
Plan Assets The pension and other postretirement benefit plan assets are categorized into a three-level fair value hierarchy, as defined in Note 10, based upon the significant input with the lowest level in its valuation. The following summarizes the types of assets included within the three-level fair value hierarchy presented below. Level 1 This category includes separate accounts that are invested in fixed maturity securities, equity securities, derivative assets and short-term investments which have unadjusted quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities. Level 2 This category includes certain separate accounts that are primarily invested in liquid and readily marketable securities. The estimated fair value of such separate account is based upon reported NAV provided by fund managers and this value represents the amount at which transfers into and out of the respective separate account are effected. These separate accounts provide reasonable levels of price transparency and can be corroborated through observable market data. Certain separate accounts are invested in investment partnerships designated as hedge funds. The values for these separate accounts is determined monthly based on the NAV of the underlying hedge fund investment. Additionally, such hedge funds generally contain lock out or other waiting period provisions for redemption requests to be filled. While the reporting and redemption restrictions may limit the frequency of trading activity in separate accounts invested in hedge funds, the reported NAV, and thus the referenced value of the separate account, provides a reasonable level of price transparency that can be corroborated through observable market data. 150 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 15. Employee Benefit Plans (continued) Directly held investments are primarily invested in U.S. and foreign government and corporate securities. Level 3 This category includes separate accounts that are invested in fixed maturity securities, equity securities, derivative assets and other investments that provide little or no price transparency due to the infrequency with which the underlying assets trade and generally require additional time to liquidate in an orderly manner. Accordingly, the values for separate accounts invested in these alternative asset classes are based on inputs that cannot be readily derived from or corroborated by observable market data. The Company provides employees with benefits under various Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 ("ERISA") benefit plans. These include qualified pension plans, postretirement medical plans and certain retiree life insurance coverage. The assets of the Company's qualified pension plans are held in insurance group annuity contracts, and the vast majority of the assets of the postretirement medical plan and backing the retiree life coverage are held in insurance contracts. All of these contracts are issued by the Company and the assets under the contracts are held in insurance separate accounts that have been established by the Company. The underlying assets of the separate accounts are principally comprised of cash and cash equivalents, short-term investments, fixed maturity and equity securities, derivatives, real estate, private equity investments and hedge fund investments. The insurance contract provider engages investment management firms ("Managers") to serve as sub-advisors for the separate accounts based on the specific investment needs and requests identified by the plan fiduciary. These Managers have portfolio management discretion over the purchasing and selling of securities and other investment assets pursuant to the respective investment management agreements and guidelines established for each insurance separate account. The assets of the qualified pension plans and postretirement medical plans (the "Invested Plans") are well diversified across multiple asset categories and across a number of different Managers, with the intent of minimizing risk concentrations within any given asset category or with any given Manager. The Invested Plans, other than those held in participant directed investment accounts, are managed in accordance with investment policies consistent with the longer-term nature of related benefit obligations and within prudent risk parameters. Specifically, investment policies are oriented toward (i) maximizing the Invested Plan's funded status; (ii) minimizing the volatility of the Invested Plan's funded status; (iii) generating asset returns that exceed liability increases; and (iv) targeting rates of return in excess of a custom benchmark and industry standards over appropriate reference time periods. These goals are expected to be met through identifying appropriate and diversified asset classes and allocations, ensuring adequate liquidity to pay benefits and expenses when due and controlling the costs of administering and managing the Invested Plan's investments. Independent investment consultants are periodically used to evaluate the investment risk of Invested Plan's assets relative to liabilities, analyze the economic and portfolio impact of various asset allocations and management strategies and to recommend asset allocations. Derivative contracts may be used to reduce investment risk, to manage duration and to replicate the risk/return profile of an asset or asset class. Derivatives may not be used to leverage a portfolio in any manner, such as to magnify exposure to an asset, asset class, interest rates or any other financial variable. Derivatives are also prohibited for use in creating exposures to securities, currencies, indices or any other financial variable that is otherwise restricted. 151 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 15. Employee Benefit Plans (continued) The table below summarizes the actual weighted average allocation of the fair value of total plan assets by asset class at December 31 for the years indicated and the approved target allocation by major asset class at December 31, 2013 for the Invested Plans:

-------- (1)Other includes ABS and collateralized mortgage obligations. Expected Future Contributions and Benefit Payments It is the Company's practice to make contributions to the qualified pension plan to comply with minimum funding requirements of ERISA. In accordance with such practice, no contributions are required for 2014. The Company expects to make discretionary contributions to the qualified pension plan of $210 million in 2014. For information on employer contributions, see "-- Obligations and Funded Status." Benefit payments due under the non-qualified pension plans are primarily funded from the Company's general assets as they become due under the provision of the plans, therefore benefit payments equal employer contributions. The Company expects to make contributions of $70 million to fund the benefit payments in 2014. Postretirement benefits are either: (i) not vested under law; (ii) a non-funded obligation of the Company; or (iii) both. Current regulations do not require funding for these benefits. The Company uses its general assets, net of participant's contributions, to pay postretirement medical claims as they come due in lieu of utilizing any plan assets. The Company expects to make contributions of $50 million towards benefit obligations in 2014 to pay postretirement medical claims. Gross benefit payments for the next 10 years, which reflect expected future service where appropriate, are expected to be as follows:
Other Pension Postretirement Benefits Benefits ------------ -------------- (In millions) 2014...... $ 447 $ 85 2015...... $ 458 $ 87 2016...... $ 470 $ 87 2017...... $ 496 $ 90 2018...... $ 503 $ 94 2019-2023. $ 2,787 $ 527
156 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 15. Employee Benefit Plans (continued) Additional Information As previously discussed, most of the assets of the pension and other postretirement benefit plans are held in group annuity and life insurance contracts issued by the Company. Total revenues from these contracts recognized in the consolidated statements of operations were $49 million, $54 million and $47 million for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively, and included policy charges and net investment income from investments backing the contracts and administrative fees. Total investment income (loss), including realized and unrealized gains (losses), credited to the account balances was $20 million, $867 million and $885 million for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The terms of these contracts are consistent in all material respects with those the Company offers to unaffiliated parties that are similarly situated. Defined Contribution Plans The Company sponsors defined contribution plans for substantially all Company employees under which a portion of employee contributions are matched. The Company contributed $84 million, $83 million and $73 million for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. 16.

158 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 16. Income Tax (continued) The following table sets forth the domestic, state, and foreign net operating and capital loss carryforwards for tax purposes at December 31, 2013.
Net Operating Loss Capital Loss Carryforwards Carryforwards ------------------------------- ------------------------------- Amount Expiration Amount Expiration ------------- ----------------- ------------- ----------------- (In millions) (In millions) Domestic. $ 46 Beginning in 2018 $ -- N/A State.... $ 150 N/A $ -- N/A Foreign.. $ 69 Beginning in 2027 $ 40 Beginning in 2014
Foreign tax credit carryforwards of $357 million at December 31, 2013 will expire beginning in 2021. General business credits of $552 million will expire beginning in 2030. The Company has recorded valuation allowance decreases related to tax expense of $1 million related to certain state and foreign net operating loss carryforwards, $3 million related to certain foreign capital loss carryforwards, and charges of $24 million related to certain other deferred tax assets. The valuation allowance reflects management's assessment, based on available information, that it is more likely than not that the deferred income tax asset for certain foreign net operating and capital loss carryforwards and certain state net operating loss carryforwards will not be realized. The tax benefit will be recognized when management believes that it is more likely than not that these deferred income tax assets are realizable. The Company participates in a tax sharing agreement with MetLife, Inc. as described in Note 1. Pursuant to this tax sharing agreement, the amount due to affiliates included $157 million for the year ended December 31, 2013. The amounts due from affiliates included $14 million and $34 million for the years ended December 31, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The Company files income tax returns with the U.S. federal government and various state and local jurisdictions, as well as foreign jurisdictions. The Company is under continuous examination by the Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") and other tax authorities in jurisdictions in which the Company has significant business operations. The income tax years under examination vary by jurisdiction and subsidiary. The Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal, state, or local income tax examinations in major taxing jurisdictions for years prior to 2003, except for 2000 through 2002 where the IRS has disallowed certain tax credits claimed and the Company continues to protest. The IRS audit cycle for the years 2003 through 2006, which began in April 2010, is expected to conclude in 2014. The Company's liability for unrecognized tax benefits may increase or decrease in the next 12 months. A reasonable estimate of the increase or decrease cannot be made at this time. However, the Company continues to believe that the ultimate resolution of the pending issues will not result in a material change to its consolidated financial statements, although the resolution of income tax matters could impact the Company's effective tax rate for a particular future period. 159 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 16. Income Tax (continued) A reconciliation of the beginning and ending amount of unrecognized tax benefits was as follows:
Years Ended December 31, -------------------------- 2013 2012 2011 -------- -------- -------- (In millions) Balance at January 1,.................................................... $ 532 $ 525 $ 499 Additions for tax positions of prior years............................... 50 27 26 Reductions for tax positions of prior years..............................

The Company classifies interest accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense, included within other expenses, while penalties are included in income tax expense. Interest was as follows:
Years Ended December 31, ---------------------- 2013 2012 2011 ------- ------ ------- (In millions) Interest recognized in the consolidated statements of operations. $ 17 $ 8 $ 27 December 31, -------------- 2013 2012 ------ ------- (In millions) Interest included in other liabilities in the consolidated balance sheets.. $ 228 $ 211
The Company had no penalties for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011. The U.S. Treasury Department and the IRS have indicated that they intend to address through regulations the methodology to be followed in determining the dividends received deduction ("DRD"), related to variable life insurance and annuity contracts. The DRD reduces the amount of dividend income subject to tax and is a significant component of the difference between the actual tax expense and expected amount determined using the federal statutory tax rate of 35%. Any regulations that the IRS ultimately proposes for issuance in this area will be subject to public notice and comment, at which time insurance companies and other interested parties will have the opportunity to raise legal and practical questions about the content, scope and application of such regulations. As a result, the ultimate timing and substance of any such regulations are unknown at this time. For the years ended December 31, 2013 and 2012, the Company recognized an income tax benefit of $53 million and $70 million, respectively, related to the separate account DRD. The 2013 benefit included an expense of $7 million related to a true-up of the 2012 tax return. The 2012 benefit included a benefit of $2 million related to a true-up of the 2011 tax return. 160 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 17. Contingencies, Commitments and Guarantees Contingencies Litigation The Company is a defendant in a large number of litigation matters. In some of the matters, very large and/or indeterminate amounts, including punitive and treble damages, are sought. Modern pleading practice in the U.S. permits considerable variation in the assertion of monetary damages or other relief. Jurisdictions may permit claimants not to specify the monetary damages sought or may permit claimants to state only that the amount sought is sufficient to invoke the jurisdiction of the trial court. In addition, jurisdictions may permit plaintiffs to allege monetary damages in amounts well exceeding reasonably possible verdicts in the jurisdiction for similar matters. This variability in pleadings, together with the actual experience of the Company in litigating or resolving through settlement numerous claims over an extended period of time, demonstrates to management that the monetary relief which may be specified in a lawsuit or claim bears little relevance to its merits or disposition value. Due to the vagaries of litigation, the outcome of a litigation matter and the amount or range of potential loss at particular points in time may normally be difficult to ascertain. Uncertainties can include how fact finders will evaluate documentary evidence and the credibility and effectiveness of witness testimony, and how trial and appellate courts will apply the law in the context of the pleadings or evidence presented, whether by motion practice, or at trial or on appeal. Disposition valuations are also subject to the uncertainty of how opposing parties and their counsel will themselves view the relevant evidence and applicable law. The Company establishes liabilities for litigation and regulatory loss contingencies when it is probable that a loss has been incurred and the amount of the loss can be reasonably estimated. Liabilities have been established for a number of the matters noted below. It is possible that some of the matters could require the Company to pay damages or make other expenditures or establish accruals in amounts that could not be estimated at December 31, 2013. While the potential future charges could be material in the particular quarterly or annual periods in which they are recorded, based on information currently known to management, management does not believe any such charges are likely to have a material effect on the Company's financial position. Matters as to Which an Estimate Can Be Made For some of the matters disclosed below, the Company is able to estimate a reasonably possible range of loss. For such matters where a loss is believed to be reasonably possible, but not probable, no accrual has been made. As of December 31, 2013, the Company estimates the aggregate range of reasonably possible losses in excess of amounts accrued for these matters to be $0 to $360 million. Matters as to Which an Estimate Cannot Be Made For other matters disclosed below, the Company is not currently able to estimate the reasonably possible loss or range of loss. The Company is often unable to estimate the possible loss or range of loss until developments in such matters have provided sufficient information to support an assessment of the range of possible loss, such as quantification of a damage demand from plaintiffs, discovery from other parties and investigation of factual allegations, rulings by the court on motions or appeals, analysis by experts, and the 161 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 17. Contingencies, Commitments and Guarantees (continued) progress of settlement negotiations. On a quarterly and annual basis, the Company reviews relevant information with respect to litigation contingencies and updates its accruals, disclosures and estimates of reasonably possible losses or ranges of loss based on such reviews. Asbestos-Related Claims Metropolitan Life Insurance Company is and has been a defendant in a large number of asbestos-related suits filed primarily in state courts. These suits principally allege that the plaintiff or plaintiffs suffered personal injury resulting from exposure to asbestos and seek both actual and punitive damages. Metropolitan Life Insurance Company has never engaged in the business of manufacturing, producing, distributing or selling asbestos or asbestos-containing products nor has Metropolitan Life Insurance Company issued liability or workers' compensation insurance to companies in the business of manufacturing, producing, distributing or selling asbestos or asbestos-containing products. The lawsuits principally have focused on allegations with respect to certain research, publication and other activities of one or more of Metropolitan Life Insurance Company's employees during the period from the 1920's through approximately the 1950's and allege that Metropolitan Life Insurance Company learned or should have learned of certain health risks posed by asbestos and, among other things, improperly publicized or failed to disclose those health risks. Metropolitan Life Insurance Company believes that it should not have legal liability in these cases. The outcome of most asbestos litigation matters, however, is uncertain and can be impacted by numerous variables, including differences in legal rulings in various jurisdictions, the nature of the alleged injury and factors unrelated to the ultimate legal merit of the claims asserted against Metropolitan Life Insurance Company. Metropolitan Life Insurance Company employs a number of resolution strategies to manage its asbestos loss exposure, including seeking resolution of pending litigation by judicial rulings and settling individual or groups of claims or lawsuits under appropriate circumstances. Claims asserted against Metropolitan Life Insurance Company have included negligence, intentional tort and conspiracy concerning the health risks associated with asbestos. Metropolitan Life Insurance Company's defenses (beyond denial of certain factual allegations) include that: (i) Metropolitan Life Insurance Company owed no duty to the plaintiffs -- it had no special relationship with the plaintiffs and did not manufacture, produce, distribute or sell the asbestos products that allegedly injured plaintiffs; (ii) plaintiffs did not rely on any actions of Metropolitan Life Insurance Company; (iii) Metropolitan Life Insurance Company's conduct was not the cause of the plaintiffs' injuries; (iv) plaintiffs' exposure occurred after the dangers of asbestos were known; and (v) the applicable time with respect to filing suit has expired. During the course of the litigation, certain trial courts have granted motions dismissing claims against Metropolitan Life Insurance Company, while other trial courts have denied Metropolitan Life Insurance Company's motions. There can be no assurance that Metropolitan Life Insurance Company will receive favorable decisions on motions in the future. While most cases brought to date have settled, Metropolitan Life Insurance Company intends to continue to defend aggressively against claims based on asbestos exposure, including defending claims at trials. 162 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 17. Contingencies, Commitments and Guarantees (continued) The approximate total number of asbestos personal injury claims pending against Metropolitan Life Insurance Company as of the dates indicated, the approximate number of new claims during the years ended on those dates and the approximate total settlement payments made to resolve asbestos personal injury claims at or during those years are set forth in the following table:
December 31, -------------------------------------- 2013 2012 2011 --------- --------- --------- (In millions, except number of claims) Asbestos personal injury claims at year end. 67,983 65,812 66,747 Number of new claims during the year........ 5,898 5,303 4,972 Settlement payments during the year (1)..... $ 37.0 $ 36.4 $ 34.2
-------- (1)Settlement payments represent payments made by MLIC during the year in connection with settlements made in that year and in prior years. Amounts do not include MLIC's attorneys' fees and expenses and do not reflect amounts received from insurance carriers. The number of asbestos cases that may be brought, the aggregate amount of any liability that Metropolitan Life Insurance Company may incur, and the total amount paid in settlements in any given year are uncertain and may vary significantly from year to year. The ability of Metropolitan Life Insurance Company to estimate its ultimate asbestos exposure is subject to considerable uncertainty, and the conditions impacting its liability can be dynamic and subject to change. The availability of reliable data is limited and it is difficult to predict the numerous variables that can affect liability estimates, including the number of future claims, the cost to resolve claims, the disease mix and severity of disease in pending and future claims, the impact of the number of new claims filed in a particular jurisdiction and variations in the law in the jurisdictions in which claims are filed, the possible impact of tort reform efforts, the willingness of courts to allow plaintiffs to pursue claims against Metropolitan Life Insurance Company when exposure to asbestos took place after the dangers of asbestos exposure were well known, and the impact of any possible future adverse verdicts and their amounts. The ability to make estimates regarding ultimate asbestos exposure declines significantly as the estimates relate to years further in the future. In the Company's judgment, there is a future point after which losses cease to be probable and reasonably estimable. It is reasonably possible that the Company's total exposure to asbestos claims may be materially greater than the asbestos liability currently accrued and that future charges to income may be necessary. While the potential future charges could be material in the particular quarterly or annual periods in which they are recorded, based on information currently known by management, management does not believe any such charges are likely to have a material effect on the Company's financial position. The Company believes adequate provision has been made in its consolidated financial statements for all probable and reasonably estimable losses for asbestos-related claims. Metropolitan Life Insurance Company's recorded asbestos liability is based on its estimation of the following elements, as informed by the facts presently known to it, its understanding of current law and its past experiences: (i) the probable and reasonably estimable liability for asbestos claims already asserted against Metropolitan Life Insurance Company, including claims settled but not yet paid; (ii) the probable and reasonably estimable liability for asbestos claims not yet 163 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 17. Contingencies, Commitments and Guarantees (continued) asserted against Metropolitan Life Insurance Company, but which Metropolitan Life Insurance Company believes are reasonably probable of assertion; and (iii) the legal defense costs associated with the foregoing claims. Significant assumptions underlying Metropolitan Life Insurance Company's analysis of the adequacy of its recorded liability with respect to asbestos litigation include: (i) the number of future claims; (ii) the cost to resolve claims; and (iii) the cost to defend claims. Metropolitan Life Insurance Company reevaluates on a quarterly and annual basis its exposure from asbestos litigation, including studying its claims experience, reviewing external literature regarding asbestos claims experience in the United States, assessing relevant trends impacting asbestos liability and considering numerous variables that can affect its asbestos liability exposure on an overall or per claim basis. These variables include bankruptcies of other companies involved in asbestos litigation, legislative and judicial developments, the number of pending claims involving serious disease, the number of new claims filed against it and other defendants and the jurisdictions in which claims are pending. Based upon its reevaluation of its exposure from asbestos litigation, Metropolitan Life Insurance Company has updated its liability analysis for asbestos-related claims through December 31, 2013. The frequency of severe claims relating to asbestos has not declined as expected, and Metropolitan Life Insurance Company has reflected this in its provisions. Accordingly, Metropolitan Life Insurance Company increased its recorded liability for asbestos related claims from $417 million to $572 million at December 31, 2013. Regulatory Matters The Company receives and responds to subpoenas or other inquiries from state regulators, including state insurance commissioners; state attorneys general or other state governmental authorities; federal regulators, including the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") ; federal governmental authorities, including congressional committees; and the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority ("FINRA") seeking a broad range of information. The issues involved in information requests and regulatory matters vary widely. The Company cooperates in these inquiries. In the Matter of Chemform, Inc. Site, Pompano Beach, Broward County, Florida In July 2010, the Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA") advised Metropolitan Life Insurance Company that it believed payments were due under two settlement agreements, known as "Administrative Orders on Consent," that New England Mutual Life Insurance Company ("New England Mutual") signed in 1989 and 1992 with respect to the cleanup of a Superfund site in Florida (the "Chemform Site"). The EPA originally contacted Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (as successor to New England Mutual) and a third party in 2001, and advised that they owed additional clean-up costs for the Chemform Site. The matter was not resolved at that time. The EPA is requesting payment of an amount under $1 million from Metropolitan Life Insurance Company and such third party for past costs and an additional amount for future environmental testing costs at the Chemform Site. In June 2012, the EPA, Metropolitan Life Insurance Company and the third party executed an Administrative Order on Consent under which Metropolitan Life Insurance Company and the third party have agreed to be responsible for certain environmental testing at the Chemform site. The Company estimates that its costs for the environmental testing will not exceed $100,000. The June 2012 Administrative Order on Consent does not resolve the EPA's claim for past clean-up costs. The EPA may seek additional costs if the environmental testing identifies issues. The Company estimates that the aggregate cost to resolve this matter will not exceed $1 million. 164 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 17. Contingencies, Commitments and Guarantees (continued) Metco Site, Hicksville, Nassau County, New York On February 22, 2012, the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation ("Department of Environmental Conservation") issued a notice to Metropolitan Life Insurance Company, as purported successor in interest to New England Mutual, that it is a potentially responsible party with respect to hazardous substances and hazardous waste located on a property that New England Mutual owned for a time in 1978. Metropolitan Life Insurance Company has responded to the Department of Environmental Conservation and asserted that it is not a potentially responsible party under the law. Sales Practices Regulatory Matters. Regulatory authorities in a small number of states and FINRA, and occasionally the SEC, have had investigations or inquiries relating to sales of individual life insurance policies or annuities or other products by Metropolitan Life Insurance Company, NELICO, GALIC, and broker dealer New England Securities Corporation. These investigations often focus on the conduct of particular financial services representatives and the sale of unregistered or unsuitable products or the misuse of client assets. Over the past several years, these and a number of investigations by other regulatory authorities were resolved for monetary payments and certain other relief, including restitution payments. The Company may continue to resolve investigations in a similar manner. The Company believes adequate provision has been made in its consolidated financial statements for all probable and reasonably estimable losses for these sales practices-related investigations or inquiries. Unclaimed Property Litigation and Inquiries In 2012, MetLife, Inc., for itself and on behalf of entities including Metropolitan Life Insurance Company, reached agreements with representatives of the U.S. jurisdictions that were conducting audits of MetLife, Inc. and certain of its affiliates, including Metropolitan Life Insurance Company, for compliance with unclaimed property laws, and with state insurance regulators directly involved in a multistate targeted market conduct examination relating to claim-payment practices and compliance with unclaimed property laws. In the first quarter of 2012, the Company recorded a $47 million after tax charge for the multistate examination payment and the expected acceleration of benefit payments to policyholders under the settlements. On September 20, 2012, the West Virginia Treasurer filed an action against Metropolitan Life Insurance Company in West Virginia state court (West Virginia ex rel. John D. Perdue v. Metropolitan Life Insurance Company, Circuit Court of Putnam County, Civil Action No. 12-C-295) alleging that Metropolitan Life Insurance Company violated the West Virginia Uniform Unclaimed Property Act, seeking to compel compliance with the Act, and seeking payment of unclaimed property, interest, and penalties. On November 21, 2012 and January 9, 2013, the Treasurer filed substantially identical suits against NELICO and GALIC, respectively. On December 30, 2013, the court granted defendants' motions to dismiss all of the West Virginia Treasurer's actions. The Treasurer has filed a notice to appeal the dismissal order. At least one other jurisdiction is pursuing a market conduct examination concerning compliance with unclaimed property statutes. It is possible that other jurisdictions may pursue similar examinations, audits, or lawsuits and that such actions may result in additional payments to beneficiaries, additional escheatment of funds deemed abandoned under state laws, administrative penalties, interest, and/or further changes to the Company's procedures. The Company is not currently able to estimate these additional possible costs. 165 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 17. Contingencies, Commitments and Guarantees (continued) Total Asset Recovery Services, LLC on behalf of the State of Florida v. MetLife, Inc., et. al. (Cir. Ct. Leon County, FL, filed October 27, 2010) Alleging that MetLife, Inc. and another company have violated the Florida Disposition of Unclaimed Property law by failing to escheat to Florida benefits of 9,022 life insurance contracts, Total Asset Recovery Services, LLC ("the Relator") has brought an action under the Florida False Claims Act seeking to recover damages on behalf of Florida. The action had been sealed by court order until December 17, 2012. The Relator alleges that the aggregate damages attributable to MetLife, Inc., including statutory damages and treble damages, are $767 million. The Relator also bases its damage calculation in part on its assumption that the average face amount of the subject policies is $120,000. MetLife, Inc. strongly disputes this assumption, the Relator's alleged damages amounts, and other allegations in the complaint. On December 14, 2012, the Florida Attorney General apprised the court that the State of Florida declined to intervene in the action and noted that the allegations in the complaint ". . . are very similar (if not identical) to those raised in regulatory investigations of the defendants that predated the filing of the action" and that those regulatory investigations have been resolved. On August 20, 2013, the court granted defendants' motion to dismiss the action. The Relator has appealed the dismissal. Total Control Accounts Litigation Metropolitan Life Insurance Company is a defendant in a consolidated lawsuit related to its use of retained asset accounts, known as Total Control Accounts ("TCA"), as a settlement option for death benefits. Keife, et al. v. Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (D. Nev., filed in state court on July 30, 2010 and removed to federal court on September 7, 2010); and Simon v. Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (D. Nev., filed November 3, 2011) These putative class action lawsuits, which have been consolidated, raise breach of contract claims arising from Metropolitan Life Insurance Company's use of the TCA to pay life insurance benefits under the Federal Employees' Group Life Insurance program. On March 8, 2013, the court granted Metropolitan Life Insurance Company's motion for summary judgment. Plaintiffs have appealed that decision to the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit. Other Litigation Merrill Haviland, et al. v. Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (E.D. Mich., removed to federal court on July 22, 2011) This lawsuit was filed by 45 retired General Motors ("GM") employees against Metropolitan Life Insurance Company and the amended complaint includes claims for conversion, unjust enrichment, breach of contract, fraud, intentional infliction of emotional distress, fraudulent insurance acts, unfair trade practices, and ERISA claims based upon GM's 2009 reduction of the employees' life insurance coverage under GM's ERISA-governed plan. The complaint includes a count seeking class action status. Metropolitan Life Insurance Company is the insurer of GM's group life insurance plan and administers claims under the plan. According to the complaint, Metropolitan Life Insurance Company had previously provided plaintiffs with a "written guarantee" that their life insurance benefits under the GM plan would not be reduced for the rest of 166 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 17. Contingencies, Commitments and Guarantees (continued) their lives. On June 26, 2012, the district court granted Metropolitan Life Insurance Company's motion to dismiss the complaint. Plaintiffs appealed and the United States Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit affirmed the dismissal of the action on September 12, 2013. McGuire v. Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (E.D. Mich., filed February 22, 2012) This lawsuit was filed by the fiduciary for the Union Carbide Employees' Pension Plan and alleges that Metropolitan Life Insurance Company, which issued annuity contracts to fund some of the benefits the Plan provides, engaged in transactions that ERISA prohibits and violated duties under ERISA and federal common law by determining that no dividends were payable with respect to the contracts from and after 1999. On September 26, 2012, the court denied Metropolitan Life Insurance Company's motion to dismiss the complaint. The trial has been scheduled for June 2014. Sun Life Assurance Company of Canada Indemnity Claim In 2006, Sun Life Assurance Company of Canada ("Sun Life"), as successor to the purchaser of Metropolitan Life Insurance Company's Canadian operations, filed a lawsuit in Toronto, seeking a declaration that Metropolitan Life Insurance Company remains liable for "market conduct claims" related to certain individual life insurance policies sold by Metropolitan Life Insurance Company and that have been transferred to Sun Life. Sun Life had asked that the court require Metropolitan Life Insurance Company to indemnify Sun Life for these claims pursuant to indemnity provisions in the sale agreement for the sale of Metropolitan Life Insurance Company's Canadian operations entered into in June of 1998. In January 2010, the court found that Sun Life had given timely notice of its claim for indemnification but, because it found that Sun Life had not yet incurred an indemnifiable loss, granted Metropolitan Life Insurance Company's motion for summary judgment. Both parties appealed but subsequently agreed to withdraw the appeal and consider the indemnity claim through arbitration. In September 2010, Sun Life notified Metropolitan Life Insurance Company that a purported class action lawsuit was filed against Sun Life in Toronto, Fehr v. Sun Life Assurance Co. (Super. Ct., Ontario, September 2010), alleging sales practices claims regarding the same individual policies sold by Metropolitan Life Insurance Company and transferred to Sun Life. An amended class action complaint in that case was served on Sun Life, again without naming Metropolitan Life Insurance Company as a party. On August 30, 2011, Sun Life notified Metropolitan Life Insurance Company that a purported class action lawsuit was filed against Sun Life in Vancouver, Alamwala v. Sun Life Assurance Co. (Sup. Ct., British Columbia, August 2011), alleging sales practices claims regarding certain of the same policies sold by Metropolitan Life Insurance Company and transferred to Sun Life. Sun Life contends that Metropolitan Life Insurance Company is obligated to indemnify Sun Life for some or all of the claims in these lawsuits. These sales practices cases against Sun Life are ongoing and the Company is unable to estimate the reasonably possible loss or range of loss arising from this litigation. C-Mart, Inc. v. Metropolitan Life Ins. Co., et al. (S.D. Fla., January 10, 2013). Cadenasso v. Metropolitan Life Insurance Co., et al. (N.D. Cal., November 26, 2013). Plaintiffs filed these lawsuits against defendants, including Metropolitan Life Insurance Company and a former MetLife financial services representative, alleging that the defendants sent unsolicited fax advertisements to plaintiff and others in violation of the Telephone Consumer Protection Act, as amended by the Junk Fax Prevention Act, 47 U.S.C. (S) 227 ("TCPA"). In the C-Mart case, the court granted plaintiff's 167 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 17. Contingencies, Commitments and Guarantees (continued) motion to certify a class of approximately 36,000 persons in Missouri who, during the period of August 7, 2012 through September 6, 2012, were allegedly sent an unsolicited fax in violation of the TCPA. Trial is set for May 2014. In the Cadenasso case, plaintiff seeks certification of a nationwide class of persons (except for Missouri residents) who were allegedly sent millions of unsolicited faxes in violation of the TCPA. In both cases, plaintiffs seek an award of statutory damages under the TCPA in the amount of $500 for each violation and to have such damages trebled. Sales Practices Claims Over the past several years, the Company has faced numerous claims, including class action lawsuits, alleging improper marketing or sales of individual life insurance policies, annuities, mutual funds or other products. Some of the current cases seek substantial damages, including punitive and treble damages and attorneys' fees. The Company continues to vigorously defend against the claims in these matters. The Company believes adequate provision has been made in its consolidated financial statements for all probable and reasonably estimable losses for sales practices matters. Summary Putative or certified class action litigation and other litigation and claims and assessments against the Company, in addition to those discussed previously and those otherwise provided for in the Company's consolidated financial statements, have arisen in the course of the Company's business, including, but not limited to, in connection with its activities as an insurer, employer, investor, investment advisor and taxpayer. Further, state insurance regulatory authorities and other federal and state authorities regularly make inquiries and conduct investigations concerning the Company's compliance with applicable insurance and other laws and regulations. It is not possible to predict the ultimate outcome of all pending investigations and legal proceedings. In some of the matters referred to previously, very large and/or indeterminate amounts, including punitive and treble damages, are sought. Although in light of these considerations it is possible that an adverse outcome in certain cases could have a material effect upon the Company's financial position, based on information currently known by the Company's management, in its opinion, the outcomes of such pending investigations and legal proceedings are not likely to have such an effect. However, given the large and/or indeterminate amounts sought in certain of these matters and the inherent unpredictability of litigation, it is possible that an adverse outcome in certain matters could, from time to time, have a material effect on the Company's consolidated net income or cash flows in particular quarterly or annual periods. Insolvency Assessments Most of the jurisdictions in which the Company is admitted to transact business require insurers doing business within the jurisdiction to participate in guaranty associations, which are organized to pay contractual benefits owed pursuant to insurance policies issued by impaired, insolvent or failed insurers. These associations levy assessments, up to prescribed limits, on all member insurers in a particular state on the basis of the proportionate share of the premiums written by member insurers in the lines of business in which the impaired, insolvent or failed insurer engaged. Some states permit member insurers to recover assessments paid through full or partial premium tax offsets. 168 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.)

On September 1, 2011, the New York State Department of Financial Services filed a liquidation plan for Executive Life Insurance Company of New York ("ELNY"), which had been under rehabilitation by the Liquidation Bureau since 1991. The plan involves the satisfaction of insurers' financial obligations under a number of state life and health insurance guaranty associations and also provides additional industry support for certain ELNY policyholders. The Company recorded a net charge (benefit) of ($23) million, $22 million and $21 million, net of income tax, during the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively, related to ELNY. Commitments Leases The Company, as lessee, has entered into various lease and sublease agreements for office space, information technology and other equipment. Future minimum gross rental payments relating to these lease arrangements are as follows:
Amount ------------- (In millions) 2014....... $ 232 2015....... 204 2016....... 171 2017....... 128 2018....... 114 Thereafter. 757 -------- Total...... $ 1,606 ========
Total minimum rentals to be received in the future under non-cancelable subleases are $131 million as of December 31, 2013. 169 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 17. Contingencies, Commitments and Guarantees (continued) Commitments to Fund Partnership Investments The Company makes commitments to fund partnership investments in the normal course of business. The amounts of these unfunded commitments were $2.7 billion and $2.2 billion at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. The Company anticipates that these amounts will be invested in partnerships over the next five years. Mortgage Loan Commitments The Company commits to lend funds under mortgage loan commitments. The amounts of these mortgage loan commitments were $3.1 billion and $2.7 billion at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Commitments to Fund Bank Credit Facilities, Bridge Loans and Private Corporate Bond Investments The Company commits to lend funds under bank credit facilities, bridge loans and private corporate bond investments. The amounts of these unfunded commitments were $687 million and $971 million at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. Guarantees In the normal course of its business, the Company has provided certain indemnities, guarantees and commitments to third parties such that it may be required to make payments now or in the future. In the context of acquisition, disposition, investment and other transactions, the Company has provided indemnities and guarantees, including those related to tax, environmental and other specific liabilities and other indemnities and guarantees that are triggered by, among other things, breaches of representations, warranties or covenants provided by the Company. In addition, in the normal course of business, the Company provides indemnifications to counterparties in contracts with triggers similar to the foregoing, as well as for certain other liabilities, such as third-party lawsuits. These obligations are often subject to time limitations that vary in duration, including contractual limitations and those that arise by operation of law, such as applicable statutes of limitation. In some cases, the maximum potential obligation under the indemnities and guarantees is subject to a contractual limitation ranging from less than $1 million to $800 million, with a cumulative maximum of $1.0 billion, while in other cases such limitations are not specified or applicable. Since certain of these obligations are not subject to limitations, the Company does not believe that it is possible to determine the maximum potential amount that could become due under these guarantees in the future. Management believes that it is unlikely the Company will have to make any material payments under these indemnities, guarantees, or commitments. In addition, the Company indemnifies its directors and officers as provided in its charters and by-laws. Also, the Company indemnifies its agents for liabilities incurred as a result of their representation of the Company's interests. Since these indemnities are generally not subject to limitation with respect to duration or amount, the Company does not believe that it is possible to determine the maximum potential amount that could become due under these indemnities in the future. The Company's recorded liabilities were $3 million and $4 million at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively, for indemnities, guarantees and commitments. 170 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.)

19. Related Party Transactions Service Agreements The Company has entered into various agreements with affiliates for services necessary to conduct its activities. Typical services provided under these agreements include personnel, policy administrative functions and distribution services. For certain agreements, charges are based on various performance measures or activity-based costing. The bases for such charges are modified and adjusted by management when necessary or appropriate to reflect fairly and equitably the actual incidence of cost incurred by the Company and/or affiliate. Expenses and fees incurred with affiliates related to these agreements, recorded in other expenses, were $2.4 billion, $2.6 billion and $2.8 billion for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Revenues received from affiliates related to these agreements recorded in universal life and investment-type product policy fees were $127 million, $108 million and $94 million for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. Revenues received from affiliates related to these agreements recorded in other revenues were $142 million, $113 million and $46 million for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively. The Company also entered into agreements with affiliates to provide additional services necessary to conduct the affiliates' activities. Typical services provided under these agreements include management, policy administrative functions, investment advice and distribution services. Expenses incurred by the Company related to these agreements, included in other expenses, were $1.4 billion, $1.6 billion and $1.6 billion for the years ended December 31, 2013, 2012 and 2011, respectively, and were reimbursed to the Company by these affiliates. 171 Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (A Wholly-Owned Subsidiary of MetLife, Inc.) Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements -- (Continued) 19. Related Party Transactions (continued) The Company had net payables to affiliates, related to the items discussed above, of $327 million and $346 million at December 31, 2013 and 2012, respectively. See Notes 6, 8 and 12 for additional information on related party transactions. 20. Subsequent Events In the second quarter of 2013, MetLife, Inc. announced its plans to merge three U.S.-based life insurance companies and an offshore reinsurance subsidiary to create one larger U.S.-based and U.S.-regulated life insurance company (the "Mergers"). The companies to be merged are MICC, MLI-USA and MLIIC, each a U.S. insurance company that issues variable annuity products in addition to other products, and Exeter, a reinsurance company that mainly reinsures guarantees associated with variable annuity products. MICC, which is expected to be renamed and domiciled in Delaware, will be the surviving entity. Exeter, formerly a Cayman Islands company, was re-domesticated to Delaware in October 2013, resulting in a redistribution of assets held in trust and the cancellation of outstanding letters of credit which were no longer required. Effective January 1, 2014, following receipt of New York State Department of Financial Services approval, MICC withdrew its license to issue insurance policies and annuity contracts in New York. Also effective January 1, 2014, MICC reinsured with Metropolitan Life Insurance Company all existing New York insurance policies and annuity contracts that include a separate account feature. As a result of the reinsurance agreements, Metropolitan Life Insurance Company recorded a funds withheld asset, included in other invested assets, of $100 million, a deposit liability, included in other liabilities, of $448 million, an assumed reserve, included in policyholder account balances, of $100 million, and received cash and investments of $448 million from MICC. On December 31, 2013, MICC deposited qualifying investments into a custodial account, which became restricted to secure MICC's remaining New York policyholder liabilities not covered by such reinsurance on January 1, 2014. In anticipation of establishing this custodial account with qualifying investments, Metropolitan Life Insurance Company transferred investments with an estimated fair value of $751 million to MICC and received from MICC qualifying investments with an estimated fair value of $739 million and cash of $12 million in the fourth quarter of 2013. See Note 8. The Mergers are expected to occur in the fourth quarter of 2014, subject to regulatory approvals. At December 31, 2013, the Company consolidated the MetLife Core Property Fund, a newly formed open ended core real estate fund. As a result of the quarterly reassessment in the first quarter of 2014, it was determined that the MetLife Core Property Fund no longer meets the requirements of a consolidated VIE; accordingly, it will be deconsolidated effective March 31, 2014.

INDEMNIFICATION MetLife, Inc. has secured a Financial Institutions Bond in the amount of $50,000,000 subject to a $5,000,000 deductible. MetLife also maintains Directors' and Officers' Liability insurance coverage with limits of $400 million. The Directors and Officers of Metropolitan Life Insurance Company ("Metropolitan"), as well as certain other subsidiaries of MetLife, Inc., are covered under the Financial Institutions Bond as well as under the Directors' and Officers' Liability Policy. A provision in Metropolitan's by-laws provides for the indemnification (under certain circumstances) of individuals serving as directors or officers of Metropolitan. Insofar as indemnification for liability arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of Metropolitan pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, Metropolitan Life Insurance Company has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by Metropolitan of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person or Metropolitan Life Insurance Company in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, Metropolitan will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
