  RISKS LOCATION IN
PROSPECTUS
Risks Associated with Investment Options An investment in this Policy is subject to the risk of poor investment performance and can vary depending on the performance of the Portfolios available under the Policy. Each investment option (including any Fixed Account investment option) has its own unique risks. You should review the investment options before making an investment decision. “Principal Risks”
Insurance Company Risks An investment in this Policy is subject to the risks related to Metropolitan Life, including any obligations (including under any Fixed Account investment option), guarantees, and benefits of the Policy, which are subject to the claims paying ability of Metropolitan Life. If Metropolitan Life experiences financial distress, it may not be able to meet its obligations to you. More information about Metropolitan Life, including its financial strength ratings, is available upon request by calling 1-877-638-3932 or by visiting https://www.metlife.com/about-us/corporate-profile/ratings/. “Principal Risks”
Contract Lapse Your Policy may lapse if you have paid an insufficient amount of premiums or if the investment experience of the Portfolios is poor and the cash surrender value under your Policy is insufficient to cover the monthly deduction. Lapse of a Policy on which there is an outstanding loan may have adverse tax consequences. If the Policy lapses, no death benefit will be paid. A Policy may be reinstated if the conditions for reinstatement are met including the payment of required premiums. “Principal Risks”
  RESTRICTIONS LOCATION IN

Investments Policy Owners may transfer cash value between and among the investment Divisions and the Fixed Account. The minimum amount you may transfer is $50 or, if less, the total amount in an investment option. You may make transfers at any time. The maximum amount that you may transfer or withdraw from the Fixed Account in any Policy year is the greater of $50 and 25% of the largest amount in the Fixed Account over the last four Policy years.

At the present time, no charge is assessed against the cash value of a Policy when amounts are transferred among the Divisions of the Separate Account and between the Divisions and the Fixed Account. Metropolitan Life reserves to impose a charge of $25 per transfer. Restrictions may apply to frequent transfers.

Metropolitan Life reserves the right to remove or substitute portfolio companies as investment options that are available under the Policy.

GLOSSARY
Age.  — The age of an Insured refers to the insured’s age at his or her nearest birthday.
Attained Age. — The insured’s issue age plus the number of completed Policy years.
Base Policy. — The Policy without riders.
Beneficiary.  — The beneficiary is the person or persons designated by the Policy Owner to receive insurance proceeds upon the death of the insured.
Cash Surrender Value. — The amount you receive if you surrender the Policy. It is equal to the Policy’s cash value reduced by any outstanding Policy loan and accrued interest.
Cash Value . — A Policy’s cash value includes the amount of its cash value held in the Separate Account, the amount held in the Fixed Account, and if there is an outstanding Policy loan, the amount of its cash value held in the loan account.
Date of Policy. — The date on which coverage under the Policy and monthly deductions begin. If you make a premium payment with the application, unless you request otherwise, the date of Policy is generally the date the Policy application is approved. If you choose to pay the initial premium upon delivery of the Policy, unless you request otherwise, the date of Policy is generally the date on which we receive your initial payment. The Date of Policy is used to measure Policy years, Policy months, and Policy anniversaries.
Designated Office. — The office designated for receipt of Policy Owner communications and requests as shown in “Contacting Us.”
Division.  — A sub-account of the Separate Account that invests in shares of an open-ended management investment company or other pools of investment assets.
Fixed Account. — The Fixed Account is a part of our general account to which you may allocate net premiums. It provides guarantees of principal and interest. Aspects of the Fixed Account are briefly summarized in order to give a better understanding of how the Policy functions.
General Account. — The asserts of Metropolitan Life other than those allocated to the Separate Account.
Indebtedness.  — The total of any unpaid Policy loan and loan interest.

Loan Account. — The account to which cash value from the Separate and/or Fixed Accounts is transferred when a Policy loan is taken.
Monthly Anniversary. — The same date in each month as the policy date. For purposes of the Separate Account, whenever the monthly anniversary date falls on a date other than a valuation date, the next valuation date will be deemed to be the monthly anniversary.
6

 

Net Cash Value. — The Policy’s cash value less any outstanding loans and accrued loan interest.
Net Premium. — The net premium is equal to the premium payment minus the sales charge, state tax charge and federal tax charge, administrative charges and any rider charges.
Planned Premium. — The planned premium is the premium payment schedule you choose to help meet your future goals under the Policy. The planned premium consists of a first-year premium amount and an amount for premium payments in subsequent Policy years. It is subject to certain limits under the Policy.
Portfolio.  — A portfolio represents a class (or series) of stock of a Fund in which a Division’s assets are invested.
Premiums.  — Premiums include all payments under the Policy, whether a planned premium or an unscheduled payment.
Separate Account. — Metropolitan Life Separate Account UL, a separate account established by MetLife to receive and invest premiums paid under the Policies and certain other variable life insurance policies, and to provide variable benefits.
Target Premium. — We use the target premium to determine the amount of Mortality and Expense Risk Charge imposed on the Separate Account and the amount of sales charge imposed on premium payments. The target premium varies by issue age, sex (except for unisex Policies), smoking status and any flat extras and substandard rating of the insured, and the Policy’s base face amount, with additional amounts for most riders.
You.  — “You” refers to the Policy Owner.
