IMPORTANT INFORMATION YOU SHOULD CONSIDER ABOUT THE POLICY

	FEES AND EXPENSES			LOCATION IN PROSPECTUS
Charges for Early Withdrawal	If, during the first ten Policy years, or during the first ten Policy years following a face amount increase, you surrender or lapse your Policy, reduce the face amount, or make a partial withdrawal or make a change in death benefit option that reduces the face amount, then we will deduct a Surrender Charge from the Cash Value. The maximum surrender charge is 3.825% of specified face amount. For example, the maximum surrender charge during the first year after issue (or a specified face amount increase), assuming an initial face amount (or subsequent specified face amount increase) of $100,000, is $3,825.			“Charges -Surrender Charge, Partial Withdrawal Charge”
Transaction Charges	In addition to surrender charges, you also may be charged for other transactions (such as when you make a Premium payment, or transfer Cash Value between investment options, make a partial withdrawal or request an illustration if you have requested more than one illustration in a year).			“Charges -Deductions from Premiums, Surrender Charge, Partial Withdrawal Charge, Transfer Charge”
Ongoing Fees and Expenses (annual charges)	In addition to surrender charges and transaction charges, an investment in the Policy is subject to certain ongoing fees and expenses, including fees and expenses covering the cost of insurance under the Policy and optional benefits added by rider, and such fees and expenses are set based on characteristics of the insured (e.g., age, sex and risk classification). There is also a mortality and expense risk charge deducted. You should review the policy specifications page of your Policy for rates applicable to your Policy. You will also bear expenses associated with the Portfolios available under your Policy, as shown in the following table:			“Charges – Monthly Deduction from Cash Value, Charges Against the Portfolios and the Divisions of the Separate Account”
	ANNUAL FEE	MIN.	MAX.
	Investment options ( Portfolio fees and charges)	0.28%	1.04%
	RISKS			LOCATION IN PROSPECTUS
Risk of Loss	You can lose money by investing in this Policy, including loss of principal.			“Principal Risks”

	RISKS	LOCATION IN PROSPECTUS
Not a Short- Term Investment	The Policies are designed to provide lifetime insurance protection. They should not be used as a short-term investment or if you need ready access to cash, because you will be charged when you make Premium payments and you may also pay surrender charges when surrendering the Policy. In addition, withdrawals may be subject to ordinary income tax or tax penalties.	“Principal Risks”
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 investment options available under the Policy (e.g., Portfolios). 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	Investments in the Policy are 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 1-800-638-5000 or visiting: https:// www.metlife.com/about-us/corporate-profile/ratings.	“Prinicipal 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.	“Prinicipal Risks”
	RESTRICTIONS	LOCATION IN PROSPECTUS
Investments	Policy Owners may transfer Cash Value between and among the Divisions and the Fixed Account. There are limitations on transfers from the Fixed Account and limits on the minimum amount Policy Owners may transfer. Metropolitan Life also reserves the right to limit transfers to four (4) per Policy year and 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.	“Transfer Charge” and “Transfers”
Optional Benefits	The Option to Purchase Additional Insurance Coverage Rider, Overloan Protection Rider, Guaranteed Survivor Income Benefit Rider and Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit Rider were available to be elected at Policy issue only. You may not elect both the Waiver of Monthly Deduction Rider and the Waiver of Specified Premium Rider.	“Additional Benefits”

	TAXES	LOCATION IN PROSPECTUS
Tax Implications	Consult with a tax professional to determine the tax implications of an investment in and payments received under this Policy. Withdrawals may be subject to ordinary income tax, and may be subject to tax penalties. Lapse of a Policy on which there is an outstanding loan may have adverse tax consequences.	“Tax Considerations”
	CONFLICTS OF INTEREST	LOCATION IN PROSPECTUS
Investment Professional Compensation	Your investment professional may receive compensation relating to your ownership of a Policy, both in the form of commissions and continuing payments. This conflict of interest may influence your investment professional when advising you on your Policy.	“Distribution of the Policies”
Exchanges	Some investment professionals may have a financial incentive to offer you a new policy in place of your current Policy. You should only exchange your Policy if you determine, after comparing the features, fees, and risks of both policies, that it is better for you to purchase the new policy rather than continue to own your existing Policy.	“The Policies-Replacing Existing Insurance”
