**DEREGISTRATION OF SECURITIES**

MetLife, Inc. (the "Company") is filing this Post-Effective Amendment No. 1 (this "Post-Effective Amendment") to the Registration Statement on Form S-8 (File No. 333-198145) filed with the SEC on August 14, 2014 (the "Prior Registration Statement") registering the offer and sale of 76,988,581 shares of common stock of the Company, par value $0.01 per share ("Shares"), issuable pursuant to the MetLife, Inc. 2015 Stock and Incentive Compensation Plan (the "2015 Plan").

On June 18, 2024, the Company's shareholders approved the MetLife, Inc. 2025 Stock and Incentive Compensation Plan (the "2025 Plan"), which the Board of Directors of the Company had previously approved. As a result, the 2025 Plan replaced the 2015 Plan and no additional awards were made under the 2015 Plan after the 2025 Plan became effective on January 1, 2025. However, dividend Shares issued in connection with Shares deferred under the 2015 Plan (and any predecessor plan) continue to be issued under the 2015 Plan. As of the date hereof, 29,258,600 Shares that were previously registered for issuance under the Prior Registration Statement remain unissued and are not subject to outstanding awards under the 2015 Plan.

In accordance with the undertakings contained in the Prior Registration Statement to remove from registration, by means of a post-effective amendment, any of the securities registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering, the Company hereby deregisters 24,258,600 Shares that have not been and will not be issued under the 2015 Plan. As of the date hereof, an aggregate of 4,326,285 Shares remain subject to outstanding stock awards previously granted under the 2015 Plan and the Prior Registration Statement will remain in effect to cover the potential issuances of Shares pursuant to the terms of such outstanding awards, as well as issuances of deferred Shares under the 2015 Plan (and any predecessor plan). The Prior Registration Statement will also remain in effect to cover up to 5,000,000 dividend Shares issuable in connection with Shares deferred under the 2015 Plan (and any predecessor plan).

------
