**GLOSSARY**

We have tried to make this Prospectus as understandable for you as possible. However, in explaining how the Contract works, we use certain terms that have special meanings. These terms are defined below:

**Accumulation Unit Value** — With a Deferred Annuity, money paid-in or transferred into a Division of the Separate Account is credited to you in the form of Accumulation Units. Accumulation Units are established for each Division. We determine the value of these Accumulation Units as of the close of the Exchange each day the Exchange is open for regular trading. The Exchange usually closes at 4 p.m. Eastern Time but may close earlier or later. The values increase or decrease based on the investment performance of the corresponding underlying Portfolios. In addition to the investment performance of the Portfolios, the deduction of the Separate Account charge also affects a Division's Accumulation Unit Value.

**Account Balance, Account Value or Contract Value** — Refers to the total amount of money in your Deferred Annuity, including money in the Divisions of the Separate Account and the Fixed Interest Account.

**Annuitant** — The natural person whose life is the measure for determining the duration of the Contract.

**Annuitization** — Application of proceeds under the Contract to an annuity option on the Maturity Date or upon an earlier surrender of the Contract.

**Annuity Unit Value** — With a variable Pay-Out Option, the money paid-in or reallocated to a Division of the Separate Account is held in the form of Annuity Units. Annuity Units are established for each Division. We determine the value of these Annuity Units as of the close of the Exchange each day the Exchange is open for regular trading. The Exchange usually closes as 4 p.m. Eastern Time but may close earlier or later. The values increase or decrease based on the investment performance of the corresponding underlying Portfolios, the experience factor for the current valuation period, the daily AIR factor and the Separate Account charge.

**Beneficiary** — The person designated to receive any benefits under a Contract in the event the Contract Owner or the Annuitant, as applicable, dies before the Maturity Date.

**Contract** — A Contract is the legal agreement between you and MetLife or between MetLife and the employer, plan trustee or other entity or the certificate issued to you under a group annuity Contract. This document contains relevant provisions of your Deferred Annuity.

**Contract Owner** — The person(s) or entity entitled to ownership rights under this Contract. If Joint Owners are named, all references to Contract Owner shall mean Joint Owners.

**Contract Year** — A twelve month period beginning with the date shown on your Contract and with each Contract anniversary thereafter.

**Death Proceeds (prior to annuitization)** — The amount we pay prior to annuitization, on receipt of due proof of death of a Contract Owner (or of the annuitant if the Contract is not owned by an individual) and election of payment.

**Deferred Annuity** — This term is used throughout this Prospectus when we are referring to the Deferred Annuities.

**Designated Office** — Our Designated Office is the office that services your Contract or accepts purchase payments into your Contract as applicable. The most recent correspondence, purchase payment stub or annual statement sent to you will have the address and telephone number that you can use to contact us for specific transactions and requests. We will notify you if there are changes to this information.

**Divisions** — Divisions are subdivisions of the Separate Account. When You allocate a purchase payment, transfer money or make reallocations of your Account Balance to a Division, the Division purchases shares of a Portfolio (with the same name).

**Exchange** — The New York Stock Exchange is referred to as the "Exchange."

**Fixed Interest Account** — A part of the Company's general account to which you can allocate net purchase payments under most Contracts. The Fixed Interest Account provides guarantees of principal and interest. Aspects of the Fixed Interest Account are briefly summarized in this Prospectus in order to give a better understanding of how the Contract functions.

**Good Order —** A request or transaction generally is considered in "Good Order" if it complies with our administrative procedures and the required information is complete and correct. A request or transaction may be rejected or delayed if not in Good Order. Good Order generally means the actual receipt by us of the instructions relating to the requested transaction in writing (or, when permitted, by telephone, facsimile (also referred to as "fax"), email or internet) along with all forms, information and supporting legal documentation necessary to effect the transaction. This information and documentation generally includes to the extent applicable to the transaction: your completed application; your Contract number; the transaction amount (in dollars or percentage terms); the names and allocations to and/or from the Division affected by the requested transaction; the signatures of all Contract Owners (exactly as indicated on the Contract), if necessary; Social Security Number or Tax I.D.; and any other information or supporting documentation that we may require, including any

------

spousal or Joint Owner's consents. With respect to purchase payments, Good Order also generally includes receipt by us of sufficient funds to effect the purchase. We may, in our sole discretion, determine whether any particular transaction request is in Good Order, and we reserve the right to change or waive any Good Order requirement at any time. If you have any questions, you should contact us or your sales representative (where applicable) before submitting the form or request.

**Maturity Date** — The date on which annuity payments begin, as stated in the application or as later deferred.

**Net Purchase Payment** — A purchase payment, in which the premium tax and any premium for the disability benefit rider, if applicable, has been deducted before allocation to the Divisions.

**Non-life contingency option** — A fixed period benefit option where payments are guaranteed for a specified period of time regardless of whether the Payee is alive.

**Payee** — Any person or entity entitled to receive payment under the Contract. The term includes (i) an Annuitant, (ii) a Beneficiary or contingent Beneficiary who becomes entitled to death proceeds, and (iii) on surrender or partial surrender of the Contract, the Contract Owner.

**Pay-Out Options/Income Options** — These are options that you may elect when you convert your Contract into a regular stream of income after your "pay-in" or "accumulation" phase. The pay-out phase is often referred to as either "annuitizing" your Contract or taking an income annuity.

**Separate Account** — Metropolitan Life Separate Account E ("Separate Account") is an investment account. All assets contributed to Divisions under the Contract are pooled in the Separate Account and maintained for the benefit of investors in the Contract. The Separate Account is divided into sub-accounts, each invest in shares of one Portfolio.

**Variable Annuity** — An annuity with respect to which returns/income payments are based upon the performance of investments such as stocks and bonds held by one or more underlying Portfolios. You assume the investment risk for any amounts allocated to the Divisions in a Variable Annuity.

**Withdrawal Charge or Early Withdrawal Charge —** The Withdrawal Charge is the amount we deduct from the amount you have withdrawn from your Deferred Annuity, if you withdraw money prematurely from a Deferred Annuity. This charge is often referred to as a contingent deferred sales charge, deferred sales load or back-end sales load.
