CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This presentation contains both historical and forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are not based on historical facts, but rather reflect the
Companys current expectations, estimates
and projections concerning future results and events. Forward-looking statements generally can be identified by
the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts and include, without limitation, words such as believe,
expect, anticipate, may,
could, intend, intent, belief, estimate, plan, foresee, likely, will or other similar
words or phrases. These forward-looking statements are not
guarantees of future performance and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other factors that are difficult to predict and that
may cause the Companys actual
results, performance or achievements to vary materially from what is expressed in or indicated by such forward-looking
statements. The Company cannot make any assurance that projected results or events will be achieved.
The risk factors set forth in the Companys prospectus dated August 11, 2008 and proxy statement/prospectus dated August 4, 2008 in the respective
sections entitled Risk Factors, and the matters
discussed in RGAs SEC filings, including the Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations sections of RGAs Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2007 and RGAs
Quarterly
Reports on Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarters ended March 31, 2008 and June 30, 2008, could affect future results, causing these results to differ materially
from those expressed in RGAs forward-looking statements.
The forward-looking statements included in this document are only made as of the date of this document and RGA has no obligation to publicly update any
forward-looking statement to reflect subsequent events
or circumstances.
Numerous important factors could cause actual results and events to differ materially from those expressed or implied by forward-looking statements
including, without limitation, (1) adverse changes in mortality,
morbidity, lapsation or claims experience, (2) changes in our financial strength and credit
ratings or those of MetLife, Inc. ("MetLife"), the beneficial owner of a majority of our common shares, or
its subsidiaries, and the effect of such changes on
our future results of operations and financial condition, (3) inadequate risk analysis and underwriting, (4) general economic conditions or a prolonged
economic downturn affecting the demand for insurance
and reinsurance in our current and planned markets, (5) the availability and cost of collateral
necessary for regulatory reserves and capital, (6) market or economic conditions that adversely affect our ability to make timely sales of investment
securities,
(7) risks inherent in our risk management and investment strategy, including changes in investment portfolio yields due to interest rate or credit
quality changes, (8) fluctuations in U.S. or foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates, or securities
and real estate markets, (9) adverse litigation or
arbitration results, (10) the adequacy of reserves, resources and accurate information relating to settlements, awards and terminated and discontinued lines
of business, (11) the stability of and actions
by governments and economies in the markets in which we operate, (12) competitive factors and competitors'
responses to our initiatives, (13) the success of our clients, (14) successful execution of our entry into new markets, (15) successful development
and
introduction of new products and distribution opportunities, (16) our ability to successfully integrate and operate reinsurance business that we acquire, (17)
regulatory action that may be taken by state Departments of Insurance with respect to
us, MetLife, or its subsidiaries, (18) our dependence on third parties,
including those insurance companies and reinsurers to which we cede some reinsurance, third-party investment managers and others, (19) the threat of
natural disasters, catastrophes,
terrorist attacks, epidemics or pandemics anywhere in the world where we or our clients do business, (20) changes in laws,
regulations, and accounting standards applicable to us, our subsidiaries, or our business, (21) the effect of our status as an insurance
holding company and
regulatory restrictions on our ability to pay principal of and interest on our debt obligations, and (22) other risks and uncertainties described in this document
and in our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Additional Information and Where You Can Find It
In connection with MetLifes proposed divestiture of its stake in RGA, on August 11, 2008, RGA filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the
SEC) a registration statement on Form S-4
(No. 333-152828), as amended, which includes a form of prospectus relating to the exchange offer. On August
14, 2008, MetLife filed with the SEC a statement on Schedule TO. In addition, RGA has filed with the SEC a registration statement on Form S-4 (File
No.
333-151390), as amended, which includes a final proxy statement/prospectus dated August 4, 2008 related to the recapitalization. Investors and holders of
RGA and MetLife securities are strongly
encouraged to read the registration statements and any other relevant documents filed with the SEC,
including the prospectus dated August 11, 2008 relating to the exchange offer and related exchange offer materials, the tender offer statement on
Schedule
TO, and the proxy statement/prospectus dated August 4, 2008 relating to the recapitalization, as well as any amendments and
supplements to those documents, because they contain important information
about RGA, MetLife, and the proposed transactions. The
prospectus relating to the exchange offer and related exchange offer materials have been mailed to stockholders of MetLife. The proxy statement/prospectus
relating to the recapitalization and related transactions has been mailed to shareholders of RGA. Investors and security holders can obtain free copies of the
registration statements, the prospectus relating to the exchange offer and related exchange
offer materials and the tender offer statement on Schedule TO,

offer makes any recommendation
as to whether you should participate in the exchange offer.
This communication shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy securities, nor shall there be any sale of securities in any
jurisdiction in which such solicitation or sale would
be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of such jurisdiction. Such an offer
may be made solely by a prospectus meeting the requirements of Section 10 of the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The distribution of
this
communication may, in some countries, be restricted by law or regulation. Accordingly, persons who come into possession of this document should inform
themselves of and observe these restrictions.
RGA, MetLife and their respective directors and executive officers may be deemed, under SEC rules, to be participants in the solicitation of proxies from RGAs
shareholders with respect to the proposed
recapitalization. Information regarding the directors and executive officers of RGA is included in its definitive proxy
statement for its 2008 Annual Meeting of Shareholders filed with the SEC on April 9, 2008. Information regarding the directors and officers
of MetLife is
included in the definitive proxy statement for MetLifes 2008 Annual Meeting of Shareholders filed with the SEC on March 18, 2008. More detailed information
regarding the identity of potential participants, and their direct or indirect
interests, by securities holdings or otherwise, is set forth in the proxy
statement/prospectus dated August 4, 2008 and the prospectus dated August 11, 2008 relating to the exchange offer, each as may be amended from time to
time, and other materials
to be filed with the SEC in connection with the proposed transactions.
Participants in the Solicitation
Non-GAAP Measures
RGA uses a non-GAAP financial measure called operating income as a basis for analyzing financial results. This measure also serves as
a basis for establishing target levels and awards
under RGAs management incentive programs. Management believes that operating
income, on a pre-tax and after-tax basis, better measures the ongoing profitability and underlying trends of the companys continuing
operations because
that measure excludes the effect of net realized capital gains and losses, changes in the fair value of certain embedded
derivatives and related deferred acquisition costs. These items tend to be highly variable primarily due to the credit market and interest
rate
environment and are not necessarily indicative of the performance of our underlying businesses. Additionally, operating income excludes
any net gain or loss from discontinued operations, which management believes is not indicative of
the companys ongoing operations. The
definition of operating income can vary by company and is not considered a substitute for GAAP net income.
Additionally, the Company evaluates its stockholder equity position excluding the impact of Other Comprehensive Income. This is also
considered a non-GAAP measure. The Company
believes it is important to evaluate its stockholders equity position to exclude the effect of
Other Comprehensive Income since the net unrealized gains or losses included in Other Comprehensive Income primarily relate to changes
in interest rates,
credit spreads on its investment securities and foreign currency fluctuations that are not permanent and can fluctuate
significantly from period to period.
Reconciliations of non-GAAP measures to the nearest GAAP measures are provided at the end of this presentation.
Effective in 1Q 2006, the Company changed its capital allocation methodology from a regulatory-based approach to an economic-based
approach. To enhance comparability, all prior period segment results
in this presentation have been adjusted to reflect the new methodology.
This change in capital allocation does not affect the Companys reported consolidated financial results.
