On March 13, 2023 (the "Closing Date"), Reinsurance Group of America, Incorporated (the "Company") entered into a new revolving credit agreement (the "Credit Agreement") with Bank of America, N.A., as Administrative Agent (the "Administrative Agent"), Swing Line Lender and L/C Issuer; JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., U.S. Bank National Association and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association as Joint Syndication Agents and Joint Bookrunners; a group of lenders named therein (collectively, the "Lenders") and other parties thereto.

Under the Credit Agreement, the Company may borrow and may obtain letters of credit for general corporate purposes for its own account or the account of its subsidiaries, in each case, in United States Dollars, British Sterling, Canadian Dollars, Euro, Hong Kong Dollars and Japanese Yen with an overall credit facility amount of up to $850 million.

The Credit Agreement replaces the Company's former credit agreement, dated as of August 21, 2018, among the Company, U.S. Bank National Association, as administrative agent, and a syndicate of financial institutions (the "Former Credit Agreement"), which was scheduled to mature on August 21, 2023 and provided the Company and its subsidiaries with the ability to borrow and obtain letters of credit in an aggregate amount of up to $850 million. As of the Closing Date, the Company had no borrowings outstanding under the Former Credit Agreement and a single letter of credit of approximately $975,000 issued under the Former Credit Agreement. Upon the closing of the Credit Agreement, such letter of credit will be deemed issued as a letter of credit under the Credit Agreement. As of the date of this filing, no early termination penalties have been incurred by the Company in connection with the termination of the Former Credit Agreement. A description of the material terms and conditions of the Former Credit Agreement is contained in the Current Report on Form 8-Kfiled with Securities and Exchange Commission on August 22, 2018.

The Company may borrow, repay and reborrow amounts under the Credit Agreement from time to time until the expiration of the Credit Agreement on the date that is five years after the Closing Date, on which date all of the outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest will become due. The Credit Agreement may be increased, at the Company's election, to provide for up to an additional $350 million of borrowings and letters of credit under the terms set forth in the Credit Agreement. Voluntary prepayments and commitment reductions under the Credit Agreement are permitted at any time without fee upon proper notice and subject to a minimum dollar requirements.

At the Company's option, any loan under the Credit Agreement may be a base rate loan or a benchmark rate loan. Interest on base rate loans, which will be U.S. dollar-denominated loans only, will be equal to the base rate (determined as the highest of (i) 1.00%, (ii) the prime rate announced by the Administrative Agent, (iii) the Federal Funds Rate (as defined in the Credit Agreement) plus 0.50% and (iv) daily one month Term SOFR plus 1.00%) plus an applicable margin based on the pricing grid provided in the Credit Agreement. Each benchmark rate loan will bear interest by reference to (a) in the case of U.S. Dollars, Term SOFR plus a credit spread adjustment of 0.10%, (b) in the case of British Sterling, SONIA plus a credit spread adjustment of 0.0326%, (c) in the case of Canadian Dollars, CDOR, (d) in the case of Euros, EURIBOR, (e) in the case of Hong Kong Dollars, HIBOR, (f) in the case of Japanese Yen, TIBOR and (g) in the case of any other agreed currency, the reference rate agreed upon by the Administrative Agent and the Lenders, plus an applicable margin based on the pricing grid provided in the Credit Agreement; provided, that if any such rate would be less than zero (after the application of any applicable credit spread adjustment), such rate shall be deemed to be 0.0%. Each of "Federal Funds Rate", "Term SOFR", "SONIA", "CDOR", "EURIBOR", "HIBOR" and "TIBOR" has the meaning set forth in the Credit Agreement.

The Company may select interest periods of one or three months for term rate loans (which, as of the Closing Date will be all benchmark rate loans other than SONIA loans), subject to availability. Interest on term rate loans shall be payable at the end of the selected interest period, but no less frequently than quarterly. Interest on base rate loans and SONIA loans shall be payable quarterly.

The Company will also pay (i) a facility fee at a rate that varies with the Company's long-term debt ratings and that is calculated on the aggregate amount of the commitments under the Credit Agreement, (ii) letter of credit fees calculated on the aggregate amount of undrawn letters of credit, and (iii) certain other fees incurred by the Lenders. During an event of default, interest on overdue amounts will accrue at a rate equal to 2% above the interest rates otherwise applicable to such amounts.

The Credit Agreement is unsecured but contains representations and warranties, and affirmative, negative and financial covenants customary for financings of this type, including restrictions related to, among other things, indebtedness, liens, asset dispositions, merger or consolidation, consolidated net worth and the ratio of consolidated indebtedness to total capitalization. The Credit Agreement includes customary events of default for facilities of this type (with customary grace periods, as applicable), including, among other things the non-paymentof principal, interest and fees, breaches of covenants, inaccuracies of representations and warranties, bankruptcy and insolvency events and material judgments. An event of default would permit the Lenders to require immediate payment of all amounts due under the Credit Agreement, including principal and accrued interest, terminate their commitments and enforce any and all rights, subject to cure provisions, where applicable. Additionally, the Credit Agreement contains cross-acceleration provisions, which would make outstanding borrowings under the Credit Agreement immediately payable in the event of non-paymentof other material indebtedness when due, and any other event which results in the acceleration of the maturity of material indebtedness.

The Credit Agreement also provides that upon the occurrence of a change of control (as defined in the Credit Agreement) (i) one or more Lenders may withdraw from the Credit Agreement, and (ii) if agreed upon by a majority of the Lenders, the Credit Agreement will terminate and the Company must prepay all outstanding amounts owing thereunder and cash collateralize any outstanding letters of credit.

Some of the Lenders under the Credit Agreement and/or their affiliates have or may have had various relationships with the Company and its subsidiaries involving the provision of a variety of financial services, including investment banking, underwriting, commercial banking and letters of credit, for which the Lenders and/or affiliates receive customary fees and, in some cases, out-of-pocketexpenses.

Since the terms of the Credit Agreement may differ from the general information contained herein, you should only rely on the actual terms of the Credit Agreement, which is filed with this report as Exhibit 10.1 and is incorporated by reference herein.
