On May 8, 2023, MetLife, Inc., a Delaware corporation ("MetLife"), and MetLife
Funding, Inc. (together with MetLife, the "Borrowers"), a Delaware corporation
and wholly-owned subsidiary of Metropolitan Life Insurance Company (the
"Company"), amended and restated in its entirety their Amended and Restated

N.A., as Administrative Agent and Several L/C Agent, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A.
and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as Co-Syndication Agents, the other
lenders party thereto and the other parties thereto. Capitalized terms used
herein and not otherwise defined have the meanings ascribed to them in the
Amended and Restated Credit Agreement.

The Amended and Restated Credit Agreement will provide for borrowings or the
issuance of letters of credit up to an aggregate of $3,000,000,000 committed by
the lenders party thereto. The amount available under the Amended and Restated
Credit Agreement may be increased to a maximum amount of $4,000,000,000,
provided that no Event of Default has occurred and is continuing. Facilities to
be made available by the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement may be used for
general corporate purposes (including, in the case of loans, to back commercial
paper and, in the case of letters of credit, to support variable annuity policy
and reinsurance reserve requirements). All borrowings under the Amended and
Restated Credit Agreement must be repaid by May 8, 2028, except that letters of
credit outstanding on that date may remain outstanding until no later than
May 8, 2029.

The Amended and Restated Credit Agreement contains representations and
warranties and covenants that are customary for facilities of this type. Amounts
due under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement may be accelerated upon an
Event of Default if not otherwise waived or cured.

The lenders and the agents (and their respective subsidiaries or affiliates)
under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement have in the past provided, and
may in the future provide, investment banking, underwriting, lending, commercial
banking, trust and other advisory services to MetLife and the Company, its
subsidiaries or affiliates. These parties have received, and may in the future
receive, customary compensation from MetLife and the Company, its subsidiaries
or affiliates, for such services.
