PREAMBLE
THIS REINSURANCE AGREEMENT (the "Agreement") is made and entered into as of
October 1, 2000, by and between Metropolitan Life Insurance Company, Xxx Xxxxxxx
Xxxxxx, Xxx Xxxx, XX 00000, a New York domiciled life insurance corporation,
("MetLife") and each Reinsurer, severally for its own account, that signs this
Agreement (each a "Reinsurer" and all, collectively, the "Reinsurers") and a
separate Interests and Liabilities Certificate (each a "Certificate" and, all
collectively, the "Certificates"), which Certificates are made a part hereof.
THE BACKGROUND OF THIS AGREEMENT is that MetLife, as a consequence of its recent
demutualization, has a closed block of Ordinary Life Insurance policy
liabilities that MetLife wishes to cede up to ninety percent (90%) on a modified
coinsurance basis and each Reinsurer, having reviewed materials provided by
MetLife relating to such closed block, wishes to accept a portion of the
proposed cession on that basis.
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises and undertakings set
forth herein, the parties agree as follows:
1
4
ARTICLE I. REINSURANCE DEFINITION
1. Policies and Risks Reinsured. In accordance with the terms and
conditions hereof, MetLife hereby cedes and each Reinsurer hereby
accepts severally, each for its own account, as indemnity reinsurance
on a modified coinsurance basis, the quota share of MetLife's
liabilities under the policies (the "Policies") listed in Schedule A,
net of Existing Reinsurance as described in Schedule B, in the amount
that is specified in the Certificate.
2. Conditions. This reinsurance is subject to the same limitations and
conditions specified in the Policies, except as otherwise provided in
this Agreement.
3. Policy Changes. MetLife must provide written notification to the
Reinsurers of any program to change the original terms or conditions of
a class of Policies with an aggregate face amount of more than one
percent (1%) of the aggregate face amount of all Policies not later
than fifteen (15) days after the change takes effect. Each Reinsurer
will provide written notification to MetLife of the Reinsurer's
acceptance or rejection of the change within fifteen (15) days after
receipt of notice of the change. Each Reinsurer that accepts any such
change will (a) assume that portion of any increase in MetLife's
liability, resulting from the change, that corresponds to the reinsured
portion of the Policies, and (b) receive credit for that portion of any
decrease in MetLife's liability, resulting from the change, that
corresponds to the reinsured portion of the Policies. The liabilities
of each Reinsurer that rejects any such change will be determined as
though no such change had occurred.
4. Reinstatements. If a Policy is reinstated into the MetLife Ordinary
Closed Block while this Agreement is in force, the reinsurance for such
Policy will be reinstated automatically and MetLife will pay each
Reinsurer the Reinsurer's quota share of all amounts received by the
MetLife Ordinary Life Closed Block in connection with the reinstatement
of the Policy.
5. No Extracontractual Damages. No Reinsurer assumes liability under this
Agreement for any damages, fines, penalties, costs or expenses, or
portion thereof, levied on or assessed against MetLife by any court or
regulatory body on the basis of negligence, oppression, malice, fraud,
fault, wrongdoing or bad faith by MetLife in connection with any claim
or for any other act or omission, unless such Reinsurer shall have
received prior notice of and shall have concurred prior to the actions
taken or not taken by MetLife that led to the levies or assessments, in
which case, such Reinsurer shall pay its share of such levy or
assessment.

ARTICLE II. REINSURANCE PREMIUMS
1. Initial Reinsurance Premium. MetLife will pay to each Reinsurer an
"Initial Reinsurance Premium" in an amount equal to the Reinsurer's
quota share of the Policy Statutory Reserve, as described in Schedule
C, Paragraph 1, calculated as of the date of this Agreement.
2. Renewal Reinsurance Premium. Each Accounting Period, MetLife shall pay
to each Reinsurer a "Renewal Reinsurance Premium" in an amount equal to
the Reinsurer's quota share of the gross Policy premiums accrued during
the Accounting Period by MetLife, net of any premiums incurred under
any Existing Reinsurance as defined in Schedule B. The Renewal
Reinsurance Premiums paid to the Reinsurers by MetLife will be remitted
to the Reinsurers at the end of the Accounting Period during which the
gross premiums were accrued by MetLife.

ARTICLE III. ALLOWANCE
1. Allowance. Each Reinsurer shall pay MetLife an "Allowance" for each
Accounting Period equal to the Ceding Commission as defined in
Paragraph 2 below plus the Expense Allowance as defined in Paragraph 3
below.

(a) equals the Ceding Commission Percent for the applicable
calendar year as set forth in Schedule F; and
(b) equals the Renewal Reinsurance Premium as defined in Article
II.
3. Expense Allowance. "Expense Allowance" means each Reinsurer's quota
share of (a) plus (b) where

below.
4. Expenses. The allowance for any expenses incurred in connection with
the Policies is included in the Allowance described in Paragraph 1.
This Allowance is sufficient to cover anticipated allocable renewal
expenses incurred by MetLife on the Policies reinsured. The Reinsurers
will not reimburse MetLife for any other expenses incurred in
connection with the Policies.
5. Taxes and Assessments. "Taxes and Assessments" are the allowances for
any gross state and local premium taxes (including franchise taxes to
the extent measured solely by premiums) paid in cash on premiums
received in respect to the Policies, as well as additive state and
local taxes. Gross state and local premium taxes will be before offsets
and credits, including premium tax credits from guarantee fund

ARTICLE IV. MODIFIED COINSURANCE RESERVE ADJUSTMENT
1. Initial Reserve Adjustment. Simultaneously with the payment of the
Initial Reinsurance Premium, as described in Article II Paragraph 1, by
MetLife to the Reinsurers, each Reinsurer will pay MetLife an initial
reserve adjustment in an amount equal to the Modified Coinsurance
Reserve, determined in accordance with Schedule C, Paragraph 2,
calculated as of the date of this Agreement.
2. Modified Coinsurance Reserve Adjustment. The "Modified Coinsurance
Reserve Adjustment" will be computed each Accounting Period equal to
(a) minus (b) minus (c), where:

Period on the Policies;

amount.

"Reimbursement for Benefit Payments" equal to the Reinsurer's quota
share of the Benefit Payments defined in Paragraph 2.
2. Benefit Payments. "Benefit Payments", as referred to in this Agreement,
means the sum of the following items:
(a) death benefits incurred by MetLife in accordance with Policy

MetLife under Existing Reinsurance;
(b) matured endowments incurred by MetLife in accordance with

credit established by MetLife under Existing Reinsurance;

Policy terms, net of any reimbursements for such credits
accrued by MetLife under Existing Reinsurance; and
(g) dividends and any additional amounts incurred or credited by
MetLife arising from the declaration of interest, mortality or
expense more favorable than guaranteed on the Policies after
the date of this Agreement, net of any corresponding
reimbursements accrued by MetLife under Existing Reinsurance.
3. Liability and Payment. The Reinsurers will accept the decision of
MetLife with respect to the determination and payment of Policy Benefit
Payments. Each Reinsurer will pay the Reimbursement for Benefit

ARTICLE VI. EXPERIENCE REFUND
1. General. For the period set forth in Paragraph 2, each Reinsurer will
pay an Experience Refund to MetLife equal to the Trial Experience
Refund detailed in Paragraph 3 below at the end of each Accounting
Period with respect to the reinsurance hereunder, if such Trial
Experience Refund is positive for that Accounting Period. If the Trial
Experience Refund is negative for the current Accounting Period, then
the Experience Refund is set equal to zero and the absolute value of
the negative amount will be carried forward and included in the
Memorandum Account calculation as described in Article VII, Paragraph
9, and will be offset against any future positive Trial Experience
Refunds in accordance with item (v) of part (b) of the formula detailed
in Paragraph 3 below.

ARTICLE VII. ACCOUNTING AND SETTLEMENTS
1. Accounting Period. Each "Accounting Period" under this Agreement will
be quarterly, except that: (a) the initial Accounting Period runs from
the date of this Agreement through the last day of the calendar quarter
during which the date of this Agreement falls, and (b) the final
Accounting Period runs from the end of the preceding Accounting Period
until the Terminal Accounting Date of this Agreement, as described in
Article IX, Paragraph 2.
2. Quarterly Accounting Reports. MetLife shall submit quarterly accounting
reports in the form of Schedule G to each Reinsurer for each Accounting
Period not later than forty-five (45) days after the end of each
Accounting Period. Such reports will include information on the amount

Allowance, Benefit Payments, Experience Refund, Expense and Risk
Charge, Memorandum Account, Modified Coinsurance Reserve, Modified
Coinsurance Reserve Investment Credit, Policy cash value, and the

Article IV.
(b) Simultaneously, the Reinsurer will pay MetLife the sum of:

accordance with Article V;
(ii) the Allowance determined in accordance with Article
III;
(iii) Any Modified Coinsurance Reserve Adjustment payable
to MetLife determined in accordance with Article IV;
and
(iv) Any Experience Refund determined in accordance with
Article VI.
4. Amounts Due Quarterly. Except as otherwise specifically provided in
this Agreement, all amounts due to be paid to either MetLife or each
Reinsurer under this Agreement will be determined on a net basis at the
end of each
8
11
Accounting Period. Net amounts due the Reinsurer will be payable within
sixty (60) days after the end of each Accounting Period. Net amounts
due MetLife will be payable fifteen (15) days after the receipt of the
quarterly accounting report with respect to such Accounting Period.
5. Annual Accounting Reports. MetLife will provide annual accounting
reports to the Reinsurers within forty-five (45) days after the end of
the calendar year for which such reports are prepared. These reports
will contain sufficient information about the Policies to enable each
Reinsurer to prepare its annual financial reports and to verify the
information reported in Schedule G, and will include Exhibit 8
(Aggregate Reserve for Life Policies and Contracts) by reserve basis,
Page 7 (Analysis of Increase in Reserves and Deposit Funds During the
Year), Pages 24-25 (Exhibit of Life Insurance), Schedule S of the
Annual Statement and the Risk-Based Capital report.
6. Estimations. If the amounts required in Paragraph 3 above cannot be
determined by the dates described in Paragraph 4 above, on an exact
basis, such amounts will be estimated in accordance with reasonable
actuarial methods that will approximate the actual amounts. Adjustments
to payments based upon such estimates will then be made to reflect
actual amounts when such amounts become available.
7. Delayed Payments. For purposes of Paragraph 4 above, if there is a
delayed settlement of a payment due, interest will be payable for the
number of days from the due date through the date paid, at an
annualized rate equal to the sum of (i) the one month London Interbank
Offered Rate (LIBOR) as published by The Wall Street Journal at the end
of the Accounting Period plus (ii) 100 basis points.
8. Offset of Payments. All monies due either MetLife or a Reinsurer under
this Agreement will be offset against each other, dollar for dollar,
regardless of any insolvency of either party.
9. Memorandum Account. Should the settlement formula described in
Paragraph 3 above, produce an amount due MetLife, the Reinsurer will
pay such amount in cash or its equivalent within fifteen (15) days
after the quarterly accounting report is received by the Reinsurer.
Solely for the purpose of calculating Trial Experience Refunds, the
Terminal Settlement and any Supplementary Settlement as defined herein,
each Reinsurer will establish a "Memorandum Account" in which such
amounts paid to MetLife and all future such payments will accrue with
interest at the Memorandum Account Rate described in Paragraph 10
below. The balance of the Memorandum Account at the beginning of any
Accounting Period will equal absolute value of any negative Trial
Experience Refund determined in accordance with Article VI, Paragraph
3, for the preceding Accounting Period. These losses, and accrued
interest thereon, will be
9
12
carried forward to subsequent Accounting Periods and will be a
deduction item in the calculation of future Trial Experience Refunds in
accordance with Article VI, Paragraph 3.
10. Memorandum Account Rate. The Memorandum Account Rate at the end of each
Accounting period will be equal to Modified Coinsurance Reserve
Investment Rate determined in accordance with Schedule D, Paragraph 1,
but not less than zero.
11. Tax Election. With respect to reinsurance ceded under the Agreement to
any Reinsurer that is subject to US taxation as represented in
Paragraph 4 of its Certificate, the parties shall make a joint
election, in accordance with Treas. Reg. 1.848-2(g)(8) (the
"Regulation"), issued December 28, 1992, under Section 848 of the Code,
and:
The party with the net positive consideration under this Agreement
shall capitalize specified policy acquisition expenses, with respect to
this Agreement, without regard to the general deductions limitations of
Section 848(c)(1) of the Code;
The election shall take effect as of the date of this Agreement and
shall remain in effect for all subsequent years that this Agreement
remains in effect; and
Each party shall attach a schedule to its federal income tax return for
its first taxable year ending after the election becomes effective that
identifies the agreements (including this agreement) for which joint
elections have been made under the Regulation.
Pursuant to this joint election:
each party shall exchange information pertaining to the amount of net
consideration under this Agreement to assure consistency or as may
otherwise be required by the Internal Revenue Service;
MetLife shall submit its calculation of the "net consideration" as
defined under Treas. Reg. 1.848-2(f) to the Reinsurer not later than
May 1st for each and every tax year for which this Agreement is in
effect;
The Reinsurer may challenge such calculation within ten (10) working
days of receipt of MetLife's calculation; and
The parties will act in good faith to reach agreement as to the correct
amount of net consideration whenever there is disagreement as to the

ARTICLE VIII. DURATION, RECAPTURE AND TERMINATION
1. Duration. Except as otherwise provided herein, this Agreement is
unlimited in duration.
2. Reinsurer's Liability. The liability of each Reinsurer with respect to
any Policy reinsured hereunder will begin on the date of this
Agreement. The Reinsurer's liability with respect to any Policy
reinsured hereunder will terminate on the earliest of (i) the date such
Policy is recaptured; (ii) the date MetLife's liability on such Policy
is terminated; or (iii) the date this Agreement is terminated. In no
event shall this Paragraph be construed as providing a unilateral right
of the Reinsurer to terminate this Agreement.
3. Recapture. Reinsurance ceded to any Reinsurer hereunder may be
separately recaptured at MetLife's option:
(a) at any time following the fifth anniversary of the Reinsurance
Agreement, provided that each Reinsurer's liability will be
recaptured in proportion to the ratio of total liability
recaptured to the total liability then reinsured hereunder;
(b) in the event that the rating assigned to such Reinsurer by any
of A. M. Best Company for financial condition, operating
performance and market profile; Xxxxx'x Investors Service for
financial strength; or Standard and Poor's Corporation for
financial strength, as represented and warranted in the
Reinsurer's Certificate, shall be reduced by two grades, in
which case such recapture must be one hundred percent (100%)
of such Reinsurer's liability;
(c) if MetLife shall, for any reason, not be entitled to all
relevant statement credit for the cession of reinsurance to a
Reinsurer in its Annual Statement as filed in its domiciliary
state, in which case such recapture must be one hundred
percent (100%) of such Reinsurer's liability;
(d) in the event of a change in ultimate voting control of the
Reinsurer or its ultimate controlling person; provided,
further, that the Reinsurer shall notify MetLife of any such
change in voting control within five (5) days after the date
of such change; or
(e) in the event that the Reinsurer ceases to have the U.S. tax
status then represented and warranted in its Certificate:
provided, however, that MetLife may not effect a recapture
hereunder if the Reinsurer shall, as soon as practicable and
before the as of date of the next MetLife quarterly or annual
statement, agree to enter into
11
14
the appropriate tax election agreement with MetLife similar to
that then currently in use hereunder for the Reinsurer's new
status.
MetLife will provide thirty (30) days advance notice prior to the
effective date of recapture. Such recapture will be subject to the
payment of a Terminal Accounting and Settlement as described in Article
IX.
4. Internal Replacements. Should MetLife, its affiliates, successors or
assigns, initiate a "Program of Internal Replacement" that includes any
of the Policies reinsured hereunder, MetLife will immediately notify
the Reinsurers. All solicited replacement policies will be treated as
recaptured rather than surrendered. Each Reinsurer may elect at its
sole option to treat either all policies reinsured hereunder as
recaptured or all policies of the issue year(s) in which policies were
internally replaced as recaptured. Such recapture will be subject to
the payment of a Terminal Accounting and Settlement by MetLife to the
Reinsurer as described in Article IX. For purposes of this Agreement,
the term "Program of Internal Replacement" means any effort by MetLife,
its affiliates, successors or assigns generally to solicit replacements
of Policies by which a Policy or any portion of the cash value of a
Policy is exchanged for another policy or contract that is not
reinsured under this Agreement; provided, however, that providing
unsolicited replacements at the request of a Policy owner shall not be
considered a Program of Internal Replacement.
5. Termination for Nonpayment of Amounts Due. If MetLife fails to pay the
Reinsurance Premiums or any other amounts due to a Reinsurer pursuant
to this Agreement within ninety (90) days after the end of any
Accounting Period, that Reinsurer may terminate this Agreement, subject
to thirty (30) days prior written notice to MetLife. If a Reinsurer
fails to pay the Reimbursement for Benefit Payments or any other
amounts due to MetLife pursuant to this Agreement, within sixty (60)
days after the receipt of the Quarterly Accounting Report, MetLife may
terminate this Agreement as to that Reinsurer, subject to thirty (30)
days prior written notice to the Reinsurer. Such termination will be
subject to the payment of a Terminal Accounting and Settlement as
described in Article IX Paragraph 3.
12
15
ARTICLE IX. TERMINAL ACCOUNTING AND SETTLEMENT
1. Terminal Accounting. A Terminal Accounting and Settlement will take
place if: (1) any reinsurance under this Agreement is recaptured in
accordance with Article XIII Paragraph 6; (2) any portion or percentage
of all reinsurance under this Agreement is recaptured in accordance
with Article VIII, Paragraph 3; (3) the Policies are subject to a
Program of Internal Replacement as described in Article VIII, Paragraph
4; or (4) this Agreement is terminated.
2. Terminal Accounting Date. A "Terminal Accounting Date" will be the
earliest of: (1) the effective date of recapture pursuant to any notice
of recapture given under this Agreement; (2) the effective date of
termination pursuant to any notice of termination given under this
Agreement; or (3) such other date mutually agreed in writing.
3. Settlement. The Terminal Accounting and Settlement payment to any
Reinsurer will consist of:
(a) the quarterly settlement as provided in Article VII, Paragraph
3, computed as of the Terminal Accounting Date;
(b) payment by MetLife to the Reinsurer of a terminal reserve
equal to the Modified Coinsurance Reserve on the Policies as
of the Terminal Accounting Date;
(c) payment by the Reinsurer to MetLife of a terminal reserve
adjustment equal to the Modified Coinsurance Reserve on the
Policies as of the Terminal Accounting Date; and
(d) payment by MetLife to the Reinsurer of any Memorandum Account
as described in Article VII, Paragraph 9, as of the Terminal
Accounting Date.
If only a portion or a percentage of all of Policies is recaptured,
then the Terminal Accounting and Settlement payment described above
will be made only with respect to the portion or percentage of such
Policies recaptured.
4. Supplementary Accounting and Settlement. In the event that, subsequent
to the Terminal Accounting and Settlement as provided above, a change
is made with respect to any amounts due, a supplementary accounting
will take place pursuant to Paragraph 3 above. Any amount owed to
MetLife or to any Reinsurer by reason of such supplementary accounting
will be paid within fifteen (15) days following the completion thereof.

ARTICLE X. METLIFE REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES
MetLife represents and warrants, to the best of its knowledge, the following:

appropriate for the performance of its obligations under this
Agreement.
3. MetLife Information. MetLife acknowledges that, at the Reinsurers'
request, it has provided certain information pertaining to the MetLife
Ordinary Life Insurance Closed Block for the Reinsurers' consideration.
This information included but is not limited to a copy of the
PricewaterhouseCoopers May 12, 2000 document captioned "Closed Block
Funding for MetLife US Traditional Life and US Industrial Life" that
was originally distributed to the New York State Insurance Department
(the "Department") as documentation related to the overall
demutualization process. MetLife represents that all factual
information that it provided to the Reinsurers is complete and accurate
as of the date of the document in which such information is contained.
MetLife further represents that any assumptions made in providing this
information were based upon informed judgment and are consistent with
sound actuarial principles. MetLife further represents that it is not
aware of any omissions, errors, changes or discrepancies that would
materially affect this information. MetLife acknowledges that the
Reinsurers have relied on this information and the foregoing
representations in entering into this Agreement. The preceding
representations and the information provided are not to be construed as
warranties by MetLife to any Reinsurer with respect to future
mortality, lapse, expense or investment experience of the Policies or
their associated liabilities and assets.
4. Other Reinsurance.
(a) As of the date of this Agreement, MetLife has in force, with
respect to the Policies, various cessions of reinsurance on a
coinsurance, YRT, excess or other basis (each an "Existing
Reinsurance") that it expects to continue in force under
reinsurance agreements that are listed in Schedule B. MetLife
reserves the right to recapture any Existing Reinsurance at
any time, provided that reinsurance provided by the terms of
this Agreement shall not be increased
14
17
thereby as to any Reinsurer without the consent of the
Reinsurer, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld.
(b) MetLife may, from time to time, enter into other reinsurance
agreements affecting the Policies reinsured. MetLife must
provide written notification to the Reinsurers of any such
change. Each Reinsurer will provide written notification to
MetLife of the Reinsurer's acceptance or rejection of the
change within fifteen (15) days after receipt of notice of the
change. If the Reinsurer rejects any such change, the Policies
will be considered recaptured and subject to the payment of a
Terminal Accounting and Settlement as described in Article IX.
Upon acceptance of any such change, Schedule B will be updated
to reflect such change.
5. Administration. The Policies are subject to certain terms and
conditions specified by the Department for administration as a Closed
Block. Among other things, these terms and conditions require that
dividends will be apportioned annually by the MetLife Board of
Directors or the Committee thereof supervising the operations of the
MetLife Ordinary Life Closed Block in accordance with applicable law
and with objective of minimizing tontine effects and exhausting assets
allocated to the MetLife Ordinary Life Closed Block with the final
payment upon termination of the last Policy. MetLife will continue to
administer the Policies in the ordinary course of business in
accordance with the specified terms and conditions, as they may be
revised from time to time.
6. Tax Status. MetLife represents and warrants that it is subject to U. S.
taxation under Subchapter L of Chapter 1 of the Internal Revenue Code
of 1986 (the "Code").

ARTICLE XII. ARBITRATION

issue(s); (b) the failure of the parties to reach agreement; and (c)
the date of the demand for arbitration.
3. The arbitration panel shall consist of three arbitrators who must be

an arbitrator by XXXXX-US or be an active or former officer of a life
insurance or reinsurance company other than the parties or their

arbitrator within the time allowed, the party that has appointed an
arbitrator may notify the other party that, if it has not appointed its
arbitrator within the following ten (10) days, the arbitrator will
appoint an arbitrator on its behalf. Within thirty (30) days of the
appointment of the second arbitrator the two (2) arbitrators shall
select the third arbitrator, who must also be, at that time, accredited
by XXXXX-US as an umpire. If the two arbitrators fail to agree on the
selection of the third arbitrator within the time allowed, the Umpire
Selection Procedures of XXXXX-US, as in force at that time, shall be
used to select the third arbitrator.
5. The arbitrators shall interpret this Agreement as an honorable
engagement rather than merely as a legal obligation and shall consider
equitable principles as well as industry custom and practice regarding
the applicable insurance and reinsurance business. The arbitrators are
released from judicial formalities and shall not be bound by strict
rules of procedure and evidence.
6. The arbitrators shall determine all arbitration schedules and
procedural rules and may, in their discretion, use applicable XXXXX-US
forms and procedures. Organizational and other meetings will be held in
New York, NY, unless the arbitrators shall otherwise provide. The
arbitrators shall decide all matters by majority vote.
7. The decisions of the arbitrators shall be final and binding on both
parties. The arbitrators may, in their discretion, award costs and
expenses, as they deem appropriate, including but not limited to legal
fees and interest. Judgment may be entered upon the final decisions of
the arbitrators in any
17
20
court of competent jurisdiction. The arbitrators may not award any
exemplary or punitive damages.
8. Unless the arbitrators shall provide otherwise, each party will be
responsible for (a) all fees and expenses charged by its respective
counsel, accountants, actuaries and other representatives in connection
with the arbitration and (b) one-half of the expenses of the
arbitration, including the fees of the arbitrators.

ARTICLE XIII. INSOLVENCY
1. Insolvency. In the event of the insolvency, liquidation or
rehabilitation of MetLife or the appointment of a liquidator, receiver
or statutory successor of MetLife, the reinsurance provided hereunder
shall be payable by the Reinsurers directly to MetLife or to its
liquidator, receiver or statutory successor on the basis of the
liability of MetLife under the Policies without diminution because of
such insolvency, liquidation, rehabilitation or appointment or because
such liquidator, receiver or statutory successor of MetLife has failed
to pay any or a portion of any claims.
2. Notice To Reinsurers. In any such event, the liquidator, receiver or
statutory successor of MetLife shall give the Reinsurers written notice
of the pendency of each claim against MetLife on a Policy within a
reasonable time after each such claim is filed in the insolvency,
liquidation or rehabilitation proceeding.
3. Claim Defenses. During the pendency of any such claim, each Reinsurer
may, at its own expense, investigate such claim and interpose in the
proceeding in which such claim is to be adjudicated any defense or
defenses that the Reinsurer may reasonably deem available to MetLife or
its liquidator, receiver or statutory successor. The expenses incurred
in connection therewith by the Reinsurer shall be chargeable, subject
to court approval, against MetLife as part of the expenses of such
insolvency, liquidation or rehabilitation to the extent of any benefit
that accrues to MetLife solely as a result of the defense or defenses
undertaken by the Reinsurer.
4. Two or More Reinsurers. If two or more Reinsurers are involved in the
same claim and a majority in interest elects to interpose a defense to
such claim, the expense shall be apportioned in accordance with the
terms hereof as though such expense had been incurred by MetLife.
5. No Enlargement of Obligations. The provisions of this Article shall
neither change the relationship or status of the parties or enlarge the
obligations established under this agreement between MetLife and any
Reinsurer, except as specifically provided, nor create any additional
obligations or establish any further rights against either MetLife or
any Reinsurer in favor of any other persons not parties to this
Agreement.
6. Recapture Right. MetLife may, in its discretion recapture all
reinsurance ceded with respect to any Reinsurer at any time during
which such Reinsurer may be insolvent, as defined below, subject to the
payment of a Terminal Accounting and Settlement, and any Supplemental
Settlements that may be necessary or appropriate, as described in
Article IX, Paragraphs (3) and (4). As used in the preceding sentence,
"Insolvency"
19
22
shall mean: (a) the filing of a voluntary petition for liquidation by
or on behalf of the Reinsurer; (b) any assignment for the benefit of
creditors of the Reinsurer; or (c) the appointment of a liquidator,
receiver or statutory successor of the Reinsurer.
20
23
ARTICLE XIV. NON-ADMITTED REINSURANCE
1. Letters Of Credit. If MetLife shall, at any time, reasonably determine
that a Letter of Credit ("LOC") that complies with the provisions of
New York Insurance Department Regulation 133, Part 79 of Title 11 of
the Compilation of Codes, Rules and Regulations of the State of New
York is or may be necessary for MetLife to obtain any associated
regulatory statement credit for reinsurance ceded to a Reinsurer under
this Agreement, MetLife shall notify the Reinsurer that an LOC in a
specified principal amount shall be required hereunder.
2. Application. The Reinsurer, as the applicant for such LOC, shall, upon
obtaining MetLife's advance approval of a proposed issuing bank (the
"Bank"), which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, promptly
apply for and secure issuance of an LOC to MetLife, as beneficiary, in
the specified principal amount; provided, however, that the Bank shall
not issue the LOC until MetLife shall have approved the amount of the
Bank LOC fee; and provided, further, that MetLife shall, as of the date
of the LOC, reimburse the Reinsurer for the net amount of the Bank LOC
fee paid by the Reinsurer; provided, however, that MetLife shall have
not direct liability hereunder to the Bank.
3. Stipulations. The LOC may be drawn at any time, notwithstanding any
other provisions herein and may be utilized by MetLife or any successor
by operation of law, including without limitation any liquidator,
rehabilitator or receiver of MetLife for the following purposes:
(a) to reimburse MetLife for the Reinsurer's share of Policy
premiums returned on account of cancellations;
(b) to reimburse MetLife for the Reinsurer's share of surrenders
and benefits or losses paid by MetLife under the terms and
provisions of the Policies;
(c) to fund an account with MetLife in an amount at least equal to
the ceded reinsurance deduction from MetLife's Policy
liabilities hereunder, which amount shall include, but not be
limited to, amounts for Policy reserves, reserves for claims
and losses incurred (including losses incurred but not
reported), loss adjustment expenses and unearned premiums;
provided, however, that MetLife will pay interest on funds
held under this provision at the rate published in The Wall
Street Journal for prime corporate loans at the majority of
large U. S. money center commercial banks, which rate shall be
adjusted on the last day of each month; and
21
24
(d) to pay any other amounts that MetLife claims to be due
hereunder with respect to the Policies.
MetLife will return any amounts drawn on the LOC in excess of the
actual amounts required for subparagraphs (a), (b) and (c) of this
paragraph or, in the case of subparagraph (d) of this paragraph, any
amounts that are subsequently determined not to be due.
All of the foregoing provisions are to be applied without diminution
because of insolvency on the part of either party.
22
25
ARTICLE XV. GENERAL PROVISIONS
1. Policy Administration. MetLife will administer the Policies and will
perform all accounting for such Policies. Claim settlements made by
MetLife in good faith, including compromises, shall be unconditionally
binding on the Reinsurers.
2. Audit. Upon reasonable advance notice, each Reinsurer may, at a
reasonable location or locations to be designated by MetLife, audit any
and all books, records, statements, correspondence, reports and other
documentation that relate to the Policies. MetLife shall provide a
reasonable workspace during normal business hours for such audit and
shall cooperate with and disclose and produce any and all documentation
reasonably requested by the auditors. The Reinsurer shall keep all
information disclosed or produced for audit, including all audit
reports and analyses, confidential as provided herein.
3. Annual Statement. "Annual Statement" means the Annual Statement
prepared in accordance with the rules of the National Association of
Insurance Commissioners and filed with the Department. If the Annual
Statement blank is changed or modified, such that any item described
herein does not appear on the pages, exhibits, columns and lines
referred to herein, or if it should be eliminated or combined with
other amounts or if the basis set out in the Annual Statement blank for
calculation of any item herein should be modified so that the
calculation is not consistent with the calculation of the such item
described herein, then such item will be determined in accordance with
a method proposed by MetLife with the consent of the Reinsurers, which
consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.
4. Errors and Omissions. Any inadvertent errors or omissions on the part
of one party occurring in connection with this Agreement or any
transaction hereunder shall not relieve the other party from any
liability to the first party that would have otherwise attached had
such error or omission not occurred, provided that such error or
omission is rectified as soon as practicable after discovery.
5. Indemnification and Limitation of Liability. MetLife and each Reinsurer
will indemnify and hold the other, its affiliates, directors, officers,
employees and all other persons and entities acting on behalf of or
under the control of any of them harmless from and against any and all
claims, including reasonable legal expenses, that result from any
negligent, dishonest, malicious, fraudulent or criminal act or omission
or arising out of or related to any incorrect representation, warranty
or obligation of this Agreement or any failure or breach of this
Agreement by the indemnifying party, its directors, officers,
employees, other representatives or any other person
23
26
or entity acting on behalf of or under the control of any of them. In
no event shall any party to this Agreement be liable to any other party
for punitive, indirect or consequential damages arising under this
Agreement for any cause whatsoever, whether or not such party has been
advised or could have foreseen the possibility of such damages.
6. Assignment, Retrocessions and Securitizations. MetLife may not assign
this Agreement or any rights, duties or obligations hereunder without
the prior written consent of the Reinsurers. Each Reinsurer shall
retain its quota share obligations hereunder net for its own account
and no Reinsurer may assign, retrocede or securitize this Agreement or
any rights, duties or obligations hereunder without the prior written
consent of MetLife; provided, however, that this requirement shall not
apply (a) to retrocessions by a Reinsurer to another reinsurer that is
under common control with such Reinsurer or (b) to the Reinsurer's
general excess retrocessions in the Reinsurer's ordinary course of
business.
7. Amendment and Non Waiver. This Agreement may be amended only by written
agreement of the parties. Any change or modification to this Agreement
shall be null and void unless made by amendment to this Agreement and
signed by both parties. No waiver by either party of any default by the
other party shall be construed to be a waiver by such party of any
other or subsequent default in performance of the same or any other
promise, term or condition of this Agreement. No prior transactions or
dealings between the parties shall be deemed to establish any custom or
usage waiving or modifying any provision hereof. The failure of either
party to enforce any part of this Agreement shall not constitute a
waiver by such party of its right to do so, nor shall it be deemed to
be an act of ratification or consent.
8. Severability. In the event that any provision or term of this Agreement
shall be held by any court to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, all
of the other terms and provisions shall remain in full force and effect
to the extent that their continuance is practicable and consistent with
the original intent of the parties. In addition, if provisions are held
invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the parties will attempt in good
faith to renegotiate the Agreement to carry out its original intent.
9. Survival. All of the provisions of this Agreement, to the extent
necessary to carry out the purposes of this Agreement or to ascertain
and enforce the parties' rights hereunder, shall survive the
termination of this Agreement.
10. Choice of Law, Forum and Consent to Service. This Agreement is subject
to and is to be interpreted in accordance with the laws of the State of
New York without regard to the New York choice of law rules. While the
parties contemplate that all disputes will be decided through
arbitration as
24
27
provided herein, in the event of any legal proceedings, the parties
shall submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of courts of the State of
New York and the United States of America located in the City of New
York and shall abide by the final decision of such courts. Each
Reinsurer hereby designates the Superintendent of Insurance of the
State of New York as its true and lawful attorney upon whom may be
served any lawful process in any action, suit or proceeding instituted
by or on behalf of MetLife arising out of the Agreement. Process
accepted by the Superintendent on behalf of a Reinsurer shall be
forwarded to the Reinsurer at the address specified in the Reinsurer's
Certificate.
11. Settlements. All reinsurance settlements shall be effected through
offsetting balances, electronic funds transfers or as the parties may
otherwise agree in order to carry out the purposes of this agreement.
12. Notices.
(a) Written notices to MetLife under this Agreement shall be
effective when delivered to MetLife at the following address:
Xxxxxxx Xxxxx, Vice President and Senior actuary
Metropolitan Life Insurance Company
Xxx Xxxxxxx Xxxxxx
Xxx Xxxx, XX 00000
or such other address as MetLife may designate in writing as
to its own address; provided, however, that any notice of
change of address shall be effective only upon receipt.
(b) Written notices to a Reinsurer under this Agreement shall be
effective when delivered to the Reinsurer at the address
specified in the Reinsurer's Certificate or such other address
as the Reinsurer may designate in writing as to its own
address, provided, however, that any notice of change of
address shall be effective only upon receipt.
13. Confidentiality. All records and information obtained from or on behalf
of MetLife are confidential and shall not be disclosed by any
Reinsurer; provided, however, that this obligation of confidentiality
shall not apply (a) if and to the extent that disclosure by a Reinsurer
is required by applicable law or any court, government agency or
regulatory authority or by subpoena or discovery request in pending
litigation; (b) if the information is or becomes available from public
information (other than as a result of prior unauthorized disclosure by
the Reinsurer); (c) if the information is or was received from a third
party not known by the Reinsurer to be under a confidentiality
obligation with regard to such information; or (d) if the information
was in the possession of the Reinsurer (having been received
25
28
on a non-confidential basis) other than by reason of the reinsurance
provided pursuant to this Agreement. In the event that a Reinsurer
becomes legally compelled to disclose any secret or confidential
information, the Reinsurer will give prompt written notice of that fact
to MetLife so that MetLife may seek an appropriate remedy to prevent
such disclosure.
14. Agents, Intermediaries and Representatives. All negotiations relative
to this Agreement and the transactions contemplated hereby, including
all communications and payments, have been and will be carried out by
MetLife and the Reinsurers and designated agents thereof directly and
without the intervention of any person in such manner as to give rise
to any valid claim by any other person against MetLife for a finder's
fee, brokerage, commission or similar payment. Any communication or
payment delivered by MetLife to a designated agent, intermediary or
representative of a Reinsurer shall be deemed delivered to such
Reinsurer and no delivery of a communication or payment by a Reinsurer
to its agent, intermediary or representative shall be deemed delivered
to MetLife until actual receipt by MetLife.
15. Independent Contractor. The parties shall be deemed to be independent
contractors, each with full control over its respective business
affairs and operations. The Agreement shall not be construed as a
partnership or joint venture and neither party hereto shall be liable
for any obligations incurred by the other party except as expressly
provided herein.
16. Schedules, Certificates and Captions. Schedules attached hereto are
made a part of this Agreement. The Reinsurers' Certificates attached
hereto are made a part of this Agreement as between MetLife and the
respective signatories. Captions are provided for reference only and
are not made a part of this agreement.
17. Rules of Construction. Each party acknowledges that, in the negotiation
and drafting of this Agreement, it has been represented by and has
relied upon the advice of counsel of its choice; that its counsel has
had a substantial role in the drafting and negotiation of this
Agreement; and, therefore, that the rule of construction that any
ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party shall not be
applied in the interpretation of this Agreement.
18. Counterparts. This Agreement and each Reinsurer's Certificate may be
signed simultaneously in any number of counterparts, each of which
shall be deemed an original, and all of which shall constitute one and
the same instrument as to the respective signatories.
19. Entire Agreement. This Agreement, including the Schedules attached
hereto and the Reinsurers' Certificates, as to their respective
signatories,
26
29
supersede all prior discussions and agreements between MetLife and the
Reinsurers and constitute their sole and entire agreement with respect
to the Policies and there are no understandings between the parties
other than as expressed in the Agreement.

SCHEDULE A POLICIES AND RISKS REINSURED

this Agreement are MetLife's net liability on the policies and riders
in the MetLife Ordinary Life Closed Block, as defined in Paragraph 2
below, that are in force as of the date of this Agreement. "Net
liability" means MetLife's net retained liability on all Policies.

Block" means the ordinary life policies and certain associated riders
and benefits that were issued by MetLife and included in the closed

amendments dated November 3, 1999 and November 16, 1999 and as amended
by amendment dated March 9, 2000) by the Board of Directors. These
policies include the types of policies listed in Paragraph 3, which
generally constitute all of the classes of United States dollar
denominated ordinary life insurance policies that were issued by

policy is included in the closed block only if it was either (a) in
force on any date between December 31, 1998 and April 7, 2000 or (b)

is received prior to April 7, 2000 at MetLife's administrative offices

according to Paragraph 3 below; and
(b) is the net deferred and uncollected premiums as shown in line
15 of page 2 of the Annual Statement.
2. Modified Coinsurance Reserve. The "Modified Coinsurance Reserve" equals
each Reinsurer's quota share of the Statutory Reserve.
3. Allocated Asset Valuation Reserve. The "Allocated Asset Valuation
Reserve" will be divided into subcomponents corresponding to the
subcomponents of MetLife's Asset Valuation Reserve as presented on page
41 of the Annual Statement, namely the "fixed income other than
mortgage loan" subcomponent, the "mortgage loan" subcomponent, the
"common stock" subcomponent and the "real estate and other invested
asset" subcomponent, each of which represents the portion of the
corresponding subcomponent of MetLife's Asset Valuation Reserve that is
allocable to the Asset Portfolio.
At the date of this Agreement, each subcomponent of the Allocated Asset
Valuation Reserve will equal (a) times (b) divided by (c), where:
42
45
(a) equals MetLife's total Asset Valuation Reserve as of the end
of the calendar quarter first prior to the date of this
Agreement for the corresponding subcomponent;
(b) equals the Reserve Objective for such subcomponent of the
Asset Portfolio calculated using the NAIC procedures for the
calculation of the Asset Valuation Reserve as of the end of
the calendar quarter first prior to the date of this
Agreement; and
(c) equal MetLife's Reserve Objective as of the end of the
calendar quarter first prior to the date of this Agreement for
the corresponding subcomponent.
At the end of each Accounting Period thereafter the subcomponent of the
Allocated Asset Valuation Reserve will be rolled forward as though the
Asset Portfolio represented the assets of a standalone company using
the rules applicable to the Asset Valuation Reserve; provided, however,
that:
(1) the tax rate used in calculating Realized Capital
Gains/(Losses) Net of Taxes, as shown on lines 2 and
2a of page 41 of the Annual Statement, will be the
marginal tax rate in effect at the time used by
MetLife in the calculation of its company-wide Asset
Valuation Reserve;
(2) Transfers between the default and equity components,
as shown on line 10 of page 41 of the Annual
statement, will be calculated if, at the end of the
prior Accounting Period, the Memorandum Account as
described in Article VII, Paragraph 9 is zero; and
(3) Voluntary Contributions, as shown on line 11 of page
41 of the Annual Statement, will be set to zero.

SCHEDULE D MODIFIED COINSURANCE RESERVE INVESTMENT CREDIT
1. Modified Coinsurance Reserve Investment Earned Rate. The Modified
Coinsurance Reserve Investment Rate for any Accounting Period will be

capital gains and losses, calculated by MetLife in accordance
with Exhibit 2, Exhibit 3 and Exhibit 4 of the Annual
Statement, during the current Accounting Period with respect
to the Asset Portfolio, described in Schedule E; and
(b) equals the average of the statutory values of the assets in
the Asset Portfolio as of the beginning and the end of the
Accounting Period. For purposes of this section, the statutory
value of the assets in the Asset Portfolio includes accrued
investment income less the amount of any borrowing associated
with the closed block.
2. Modified Coinsurance Reserve Investment Credit. The Modified
Coinsurance Reserve Investment Credit for any Accounting Period will be
equal to the Modified Coinsurance Reserve Investment Rate determined
according to Paragraph 1 times the Modified Coinsurance Reserve as of
the beginning of the accounting period.
3. Item 1(a) of the Modified Coinsurance Reserve Investment Earned Rate
formula, described above, will not be adjusted for income taxes or
changes in any provision for income taxes.
