approximately $900 million, was financed by MetLife from the issuance by one of
its subsidiaries, MetLife Funding, Inc. ("MetLife Funding"), of short-term debt
in the form of commercial paper, pursuant to customary commercial paper dealer
arrangements with Deutsche Bank Securities Inc., Chase Securities Inc., Merrill
Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated, CS First Boston Corporation and
Goldman, Sachs & Co. The commercial paper had a weighted-average maturity of 70
days and bore a weighted-average interest rate of 6.06%. Upon maturity of the
commercial paper, MetLife Funding had the option to refinance the obligations
then due with proceeds arising from one or more issuances of commercial paper of
short duration that matured at or around the estimated time of completion of the
initial public offering of MLINC.

      The descriptions of the RGA Agreement, the General American Agreement, the
commercial paper dealer arrangements and the transactions contemplated thereby
set forth in this Statement are qualified in their entirety by reference to the
RGA Agreement included as Exhibit 2 to this Statement, the General American
Agreement included as Exhibits 5, 6 and 7 to this Statement, and the commercial
paper dealer agreements included as Exhibits 8, 9 and 10 to this Statement, with
each such Exhibit being incorporated herein by reference.

      On April 7, 2000, MetLife converted from a mutual life insurance company
to a stock life insurance company and became a wholly-owned subsidiary of MLINC,
a Delaware corporation. MLINC acquired indirect ownership of the Direct Shares
and Indirect Shares by virtue of its ownership of its wholly-owned subsidiary,
MetLife.

      MLINC and its affiliates will use working capital to purchase additional
Shares of RGA, as described in Item 4 below.

Item 4. Purpose of Transaction.

      MetLife purchased the Direct Shares in order to provide RGA with an equity
infusion for general corporate purposes. MetLife acquired the Indirect Shares as
a result of its purchase of GenAmerica pursuant to the General American
Agreement.

      On January 30, 2002, MLINC announced that it and its affiliates intended
to purchase up to an aggregate of $125 million of additional Shares of common
stock of RGA. The purchases are intended to offset potential future dilution of
the Filing Parties' holdings of RGA Shares arising from the issuance of
Preferred Income Equity Redeemable Securities (PIERS)* by RGA on December 10,
2001. Purchases of RGA Shares may be made in the open market and through
privately-negotiated transactions. The timing of the purchases will be dependent
upon market conditions and other

corporate considerations. The plan to purchase additional Shares of RGA may be
modified, extended or terminated by MLINC and its affiliates at any time. As of
October 24, 2003, MLINC had purchased a total of 327,600 shares under this plan

Senior Vice-President and Tax Director of MLINC, was elected as a member of the
Board of Directors of RGA, replacing John H. Tweedie, who retired from MLINC and
the Board of Directors of RGA on December 31, 2001. On October 22, 2003, the
Board of Directors of RGA elected, effective November 1, 2003 and October 22,
2003, Lisa M. Weber, Senior Executive Vice President and Chief Administrative
Officer of MLINC, and Leland C. Launer Jr., Executive Vice President and Chief
Investment Officer of MLINC, as Directors, respectively, filling Board

percent of the outstanding Shares. With respect to such Shares, GenAmerica,
GenAm Life and EIM share voting and dispositive power with MLINC, MetLife and

      The following information in this paragraph is to the best knowledge of

the Board and Chief Financial Officer of MLINC and MetLife, a director of
GenAmerica and GenAm Life and Chairman of the Board of RGA, beneficially owned

Shares.

      The Share ownership described in the above paragraph does not represent

      (c) In the 60 days prior to the date of filing of this Statement, none of

respective directors and executive officers has effected any transactions in the

Item 6. Contract, Arrangements, Understandings or Relationships With Respect to
Securities of the Issuer.

      Pursuant to the RGA Agreement, MetLife purchased the Direct Shares from
RGA for a purchase price of $26.125 per share, or $125,000,000.13 in the
aggregate (less $50,000 for MetLife's legal fees which RGA agreed to pay). RGA
agreed to use such proceeds for general corporate purposes. In connection with
the purchase and sale of such Shares under the RGA Agreement, RGA and MetLife
executed and delivered a Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of November 23,
1999 (the "Registration Rights Agreement"). The Registration Rights Agreement
requires RGA, following a request from MetLife, to register the offer and sale
of all or any part of the Direct Shares under the Securities Act of 1933, as
amended (the "Securities Act"). The Registration Rights Agreement also permits
MetLife to include all or any part of the Direct Shares in certain other
proposed registrations by RGA of its Shares under the Securities Act.

      Additional registration rights relating to Indirect Shares are set forth
in the Registration Rights Agreement, dated as of April 15, 1993, (the "1993
Registration Rights Agreement"), between RGA and GenAm Life. The 1993
Registration Rights Agreement requires RGA, following a request, to register the
offer and sale of Indirect Shares under the Securities Act, and permits the
inclusion of Indirect Shares in certain other proposed registrations by RGA of
its Shares under the Securities Act.

      The descriptions of the Registration Rights Agreement and the 1993
Registration Rights Agreement set forth in this Statement are qualified in their
entirety by reference to such agreements, included as Exhibits 3 and 4,
respectively, to this Statement, each of which is incorporated herein in its
entirety by reference. See also Item 3 above.
