                             TERMS OF THE DEBENTURES

      Pursuant to Section 3.1 of the Base Indenture, the Debentures are hereby
established with the following terms and other provisions:

      Section 2.01 . Designation and Principal Amount. (a) There is hereby
authorized a series of Debt Securities designated the "6.75% Junior Subordinated
Debentures due 2065," in the initial aggregate principal amount of $400,000,000.

            (b) The Company may, from time to time, subject to compliance with
      any other applicable provisions of this Indenture but without the consent
      of the Holders, create and issue pursuant to this Indenture an unlimited
      principal amount of additional Debentures (in excess of any amounts
      theretofore issued) having the same terms and conditions to those of the
      other outstanding Debentures, except that any such additional Debentures
      (i) may have a different issue date and issue price from other outstanding
      Debentures and (ii) may have a different amount of interest payable on the
      first Interest Payment Date after issuance than is payable on other
      outstanding Debentures. Such additional Debentures shall constitute part
      of the same series of Debentures hereunder, unless any such adjustment
      pursuant to this Section 2.01(b) shall cause such additional Debentures to
      constitute, as determined pursuant to an Opinion of Counsel, a different
      class of securities than the original series of Debentures for U.S.
      federal income tax purposes.

                                       10

<PAGE>

      Section 2.02 . Issue Date; Maturity. The Debentures shall be issued as of
the date hereof; and the stated maturity of the principal amount of the
Debentures shall be December 15, 2065 (the "STATED MATURITY").

      Section 2.03 . Place of Payment and Surrender for Registration of
Transfer. Payment of principal of (and premium, if any) and interest on
Debentures shall be made, the transfer of Debentures will be registrable and
Debentures will be exchangeable for Debentures of other denominations of a like
principal amount at the office or agency of the Company maintained for such
purpose, initially the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee. Payment of any
principal (and premium, if any) and interest on Debentures issued as Global
Debentures shall be payable by the Company through the Paying Agent to the
Depositary in immediately available funds. At the Company's option, interest on
Debentures issued in physical form may be payable (i) by a U.S. Dollar check
drawn on a bank in The City of New York mailed to the address of the Person
entitled thereto as such address shall appear in the Security Register, or (ii)
upon application to the Security Registrar not later than the relevant Regular
Record Date by a Holder of a principal amount of the Debentures in excess of
$5,000,000, by wire transfer in immediately available funds, which application
shall remain in effect until the Holder notifies, in writing, the Security
Registrar to the contrary.

      Section 2.04 . Registered Securities; Form; Denominations; Depositary. (a)
The Debentures shall be issued in fully registered form as Registered Securities
and shall be initially issued in the form of one or more permanent Global Notes
(the "GLOBAL DEBENTURES"), in the form of Exhibit A hereto. The Debentures shall
not be issuable in bearer form. The terms and provisions contained in the form
of Debenture shall constitute, and are hereby expressly made, a part of the
Indenture, and the Company and the Trustee, by their execution and delivery of
the Indenture, expressly agree to such terms and provisions and to be bound
thereby.

      (b) The Debentures shall be issued in denominations of $1,000 and whole
multiples thereof.

      Section 2.05 . Interest.

      (a) Fixed Rate Period. (i) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.06,
Section 2.07 and Section 2.08, during the Fixed Rate Period, the Debentures
shall accrue interest at a rate per annum of 6.75% (the "FIXED RATE") of the
principal amount of $1,000 per Debenture, payable semi-annually in arrears on
June 15 and December 15 of each year (each, a "FIXED RATE INTEREST PAYMENT
DATE"), commencing on June 15, 2006, to the Person in whose name the Debenture
is registered in the Security Register at the close of business on the Regular
Record Date.

                                       11

<PAGE>

           (ii) The amount of interest payable for any Interest Payment Period
      during the Fixed Rate Period will be computed as follows:

                  (A) for any full Interest Payment Period, on the basis of a
            360-day year of twelve 30-day months;

                  (B) for any period shorter than a full Interest Payment
            Period, on the basis of a 30-day month; and

                  (C) for any period shorter than a 30-day month, on the basis
            of the actual number of days elapsed in the 30-day month.

           (iii) In the event that any Fixed Rate Interest Payment Date is not a
      Business Day, payment of the interest payable on such Fixed Rate Interest
      Payment Date shall be made on the next succeeding day that is a Business
      Day without any interest or other payment in respect of any such delay.

      (b) Floating Rate Period. (i) Subject to the provisions of Section 2.06,
Section 2.07 and Section 2.08, during the Floating Rate Period, the Debentures
shall accrue interest at an annual rate of 3-month LIBOR plus a margin equal to
266.5 basis points (the "FLOATING RATE"), payable quarterly in arrears on March
15, June 15, September 15 and December 15 of each year (each, a "FLOATING RATE
INTEREST PAYMENT DATE"), commencing on March 15, 2016 to the Person in whose
name the Debenture is registered in the Security Register at the close of
business on the applicable Regular Record Date.

            (ii) The amount of Floating Rate interest payable on the Debentures
      for any Interest Payment Period will be computed on the basis of a 360-day
      year and the actual number of days elapsed in the 360-day year.

            (iii) If a scheduled Floating Rate Interest Payment Date is not a
      Business Day, such Interest Payment Date shall be postponed to the next
      succeeding day that is a Business Day; provided that if such Business Day
      is in the next succeeding calendar month, such Interest Payment Date shall
      be the immediately preceding Business Day.

      (c) Period of Accrual. Subject to Section 2.05(a)(iii), interest will
accrue from and including the last date in respect of which interest has been
paid or duly provided for to but excluding the Interest Payment Date on which
the interest is actually paid or the Stated Maturity, as the case may be.

      (d) Duties of Calculation Agent. The Calculation Agent will calculate the
Floating Rate for the Debentures and the amount of interest payable on each

                                       12

<PAGE>

Floating Rate Interest Payment Date. Promptly upon such determination, the
Calculation Agent will notify the Company and, if the Trustee is not then
serving as the Calculation Agent, the Trustee, of the Floating Rate for the new
quarterly Interest Payment Period. The Floating Rate determined by the
Calculation Agent, absent manifest error, will be binding and conclusive on the
Company, the Holders and the Trustee. All percentages resulting from any
interest rate calculation will be rounded upward or downward, as appropriate, to
the next higher or lower one hundred-thousandth of a percentage point.

      (e) Unpaid Interest. Interest not paid on any Interest Payment Date,
including any interest deferred during any Extension Period, will accrue and
compound at the from time to time then applicable interest rate (whether
semi-annually at the Fixed Rate or quarterly at the Floating Rate, as the case
may be). Subject to Section 2.05(a)(iii), such interest will accrue and compound
to the date that it is actually paid.

      (f) Regular Record Dates. The Regular Record Dates for the Debentures
shall be:

            (i) as long as the Debentures remain in book-entry only form or are
      represented by a Global Debenture, the Business Day next preceding the
      corresponding Interest Payment Date; or

            (ii) if such Debentures are issued in definitive form, on such
      Business Day selected by the Company that is at least one Business Day
      prior to the corresponding Interest Payment Date.

      (g) Allocation of Interest Payments. Any interest payment made will first
be allocated to payment of the interest due and payable on that Interest Payment
Date. Any interest payment in excess of the amount of the interest due and
payable on that Interest Payment Date will be applied first against any then
existing accrued and unpaid interest, in chronological order beginning with the
earliest unpaid Interest Payment Date, and then against any accrued and unpaid
Compounded Interest.

      (h) Additional Interest. Additional Interest, as defined in the Base
Indenture, shall not apply to the Debentures.

      Section 2.06 . Optional Deferral Of Interest.

      (a) Article XVIII of the Base Indenture shall be superseded by this
Section 2.06 with respect to the Debentures.

      (b) Optional Extension Period. Subject to Section 2.08, as long as no
Event of Default or Mandatory Deferral Event has occurred and is continuing, the

                                       13

<PAGE>

Company shall have the right at any time and from time to time, to defer
payments of interest on the Debentures by extending the Interest Payment Period
on the Debentures for a period (an "OPTIONAL EXTENSION PERIOD") not exceeding
ten years, during which Optional Extension Period deferred interest on the
Debentures shall not be due and payable. Subject to Section 2.08 and the above
requirements, prior to the termination of any Extension Period, the Company may
further defer payments of interest by further extending such Extension Period.
Upon the termination of any Extension Period and the payment of all accrued and
unpaid interest, together with any Compounded Interest thereon, the Company may
commence a new Extension Period, subject to Section 2.08 and the above
requirements, there being no limit on the number of such new Extension Periods
the Company may begin.

      (c) Covenants. During an Optional Extension Period, the Company shall be
subject to the limitations set forth in Section 3.01 of this Second Supplemental
Indenture.

      (d) Notices. The Company shall give notice of its election to defer
payments of interest on the Debentures for an Optional Extension Period at least
ten Business Days prior to the first Interest Payment Date during such Optional
Extension Period as follows:

            (i) by first class mail, postage prepaid, addressed to the Holders;
      or

            (ii) as to any Global Debenture registered in the name of DTC or its
      nominee, by e-mail, fax, or any other manner as agreed to by the Company
      and the Holder of the Global Debenture.

      Copies of any such notice to a Holder, if given by the Company, shall be
mailed to the Trustee at the same time.

      Section 2.07 . Mandatory Deferral of Interest.

      (a) Mandatory Extension Period. Subject to Section 2.08, if and to the
extent that a Mandatory Deferral Event has occurred and is continuing as of any
Interest Payment Date, the Company shall defer payments of interest on the
Debentures by extending the Interest Payment Period on the Debentures for a
period not exceeding ten years (a "MANDATORY EXTENSION PERIOD"), during which
Mandatory Extension Period deferred interest on the Debentures shall not be due
and payable, except to the extent that any such payment is made using the
Alternative Coupon Satisfaction Mechanism.

                                       14

<PAGE>

      (b) Mandatory Deferral Event. "MANDATORY DEFERRAL EVENT" means a
determination by the Company that any of the following conditions exists as of
any Interest Payment Date:

            (i) the Risk-Based Capital Ratio for any Covered Reinsurance
      Subsidiary is less than 175% of the Company Action Level for such Covered
      Reinsurance Subsidiary, in each case based on the most recent annual
      financial statements that such Covered Reinsurance Subsidiary has filed
      with applicable state insurance commissioners; or

            (ii) (x) the Trailing Four Quarters Consolidated Net Income Amount
      for the period ending on the fiscal quarter that is two fiscal quarters
      prior to the most recently completed fiscal quarter prior to such Interest
      Payment Date is zero or a negative amount, and (y) the Adjusted
      Stockholders' Equity Amount as of such most recently completed quarter and
      as of the end of the fiscal quarter that is two quarters prior to such
      most recently completed fiscal quarter has declined by 10% or more as
      compared to the Adjusted Stockholders' Equity Amount at the end of the
      fiscal quarter (the "BENCHMARK QUARTER") that is ten quarters prior to
      such most recently completed fiscal quarter.

      If the Company fails to satisfy either of the above tests for any Interest
Payment Date, the limitation on the Company's ability to make interest payments
on the Debentures will continue until the Company is able again to satisfy both
tests for an Interest Payment Date. In addition, in the case of a Mandatory
Deferral Event arising under clause (ii) above, the restriction on interest
payments will continue until the Company satisfies both of the tests in clauses
(i) and (ii) above for an Interest Payment Date and the Company's Adjusted
Stockholders' Equity Amount has increased, or has declined by less than 10%, in
either case as compared to the Adjusted Stockholders' Equity Amount at the end
of the Benchmark Quarter for each Interest Payment Date as to which interest
payment restrictions were imposed under clause (ii) above.

      (c) Changes in GAAP. If, because of a change in GAAP that results in a
cumulative effect of a change in an accounting principle or a restatement, (i)
the Company's consolidated net income is higher or lower than it would have been
absent such change, then, for purposes of the calculations described in
paragraph (b)(ii) of this Section 2.07, commencing with the fiscal quarter for
which such change in GAAP becomes effective, such consolidated net income shall
be calculated on a pro forma basis as if such change had not occurred or (ii)
the Adjusted Stockholders' Equity Amount as of a fiscal quarter end is higher or
lower than it would have been absent such change, then, for purposes of the
calculations described in paragraph (b)(ii) of this Section 2.07, commencing
with the fiscal quarter for which such change in GAAP becomes effective, the

                                       15

<PAGE>

Adjusted Common Stockholders' Equity Amount shall be calculated on a pro forma
basis as if such change had not occurred.

      (d) Covenants. During a Mandatory Extension Period, the Company shall be
subject to the limitations set forth in Section 3.01 and Section 3.02 of this
Second Supplemental Indenture.

      (e) Foregone Interest. By acquiring a Debenture or an interest therein,
each Holder or beneficial owner of a Debenture, as the case may be, agrees that
in the event of a Bankruptcy Default prior to the Stated Maturity or redemption
of the Debentures, any unpaid Mandatorily Deferred Interest in excess of 25% of
the then outstanding principal amount of such Holder's Debenture (or the portion
of such Debenture in which such beneficial owner holds an interest) (the
"FOREGONE INTEREST") shall not be due and payable and no Holder or beneficial
owner will have any claim for, and thus any right to receive, such Foregone
Interest.

      (f) Payment of Mandatorily Deferred Interest. Mandatorily Deferred
Interest on the Debentures may only be satisfied using the Alternative Coupon
Satisfaction Mechanism except upon an Event of Default, in which case such
Mandatorily Deferred Interest may be satisfied without regard to the Alternative
Coupon Satisfaction Mechanism. In the event that a Mandatory Deferral Event is
no longer continuing, subsequent interest may be paid in cash without regard to
the Alternative Coupon Satisfaction Mechanism.

      (g) Notices. By not later than the 15th day prior to each Interest Payment
Date for which the Interest Payment Period is being extended by reason of a
Mandatory Deferral Event, the Company shall give notice of such Mandatory
Extension Period as follows:

            (i) by first class mail, postage prepaid, addressed to the Holders;
      or

            (ii) as to any Global Debenture registered in the name of DTC or its
      nominee, by e-mail, fax, or any other manner as agreed to by the Company
      and the Holder of the Global Debenture.

      Such notice, in addition to stating that interest payments will be
deferred, shall set forth (x) the Risk-Based Capital Ratio for any relevant
Covered Reinsurance Subsidiary, if the Mandatory Deferral Event has been
triggered by the test set forth in Section 2.07(b)(i) hereof, or (y) the
Trailing Four Quarters Consolidated Net Income Amount and the Adjusted
Stockholders' Equity Amount for the relevant periods and dates, if the Mandatory
Deferral Event has been triggered by the test set forth in Section 2.07(b)(ii)
hereof, and, in either case, (z) the amount by which the Risk-Based Capital
Ratio or the Adjusted Stockholders' Equity Amount, as the case may be, must
increase in order for the

                                       16

<PAGE>

Mandatory Deferral Event to cease and for interest payments to be resumed.
Copies of any such notice to a Holder, if given by the Company, shall be mailed
to the Trustee at the same time.

      Section 2.08 . Deferral of Interest in General. (a) Any unpaid interest
accrued during any Extension Period, including Compounded Interest, will in all
events be due and payable upon the Stated Maturity, subject, in the case of
Foregone Interest, to Section 2.07(e).

      (b) At the termination of any Extension Period, the Company shall pay all
deferred interest then accrued and unpaid, together with Compounded Interest, on
the Interest Payment Date on which such Extension Period terminates, subject to
Section 2.07. An Extension Period will be deemed to terminate upon any
redemption or upon any acceleration of the Stated Maturity.

      (c) In no event shall any Extension Period, whether or not consisting of
consecutive Interest Payment Periods, (i) exceed ten years, (ii) end on a date
other than an Interest Payment Date or (iii) extend beyond the Stated Maturity.
For purposes of calculating the foregoing limitation on Extension Periods, (x)
only when all accrued and unpaid interest, together with any Compounded Interest
thereon, has been paid will any Interest Payment Period during which interest
has been deferred no longer be included; and (y) after the commencement of an
Extension Period, the period from the first Interest Payment Date for which
interest was deferred pursuant to Section 2.06 or Section 2.07 and ending on the
Interest Payment Date on which all interest that was deferred pursuant to
Section 2.06 or Section 2.07, including Compounded Interest, is paid in full,
shall be included for purposes of calculating the length of an Extension Period.

      Section 2.09 Right to Optional Redemption by the Company. (a) The Company
may, at its option, redeem the Debentures:

            (i) in whole or in part, on or after December 15, 2015, at the Par
      Redemption Amount; provided that if the Debentures are not redeemed in
      whole, at least $50 million aggregate principal amount of the Debentures
      (excluding Debentures held by the Company or any of its Affiliates)
      remains outstanding after giving effect to such redemption; or

            (ii) in whole, prior to December 15, 2015, at a cash redemption
      price of the greater of (A) the Par Redemption Amount and (B) the
      Make-Whole Redemption Amount.

      (b) The Company may not redeem fewer than all outstanding Debentures
unless all accrued and unpaid interest on the Debentures, together with any
Compounded Interest thereon, has been paid in full for all Interest Payment
Periods terminating on or prior to the Redemption Date.

                                       17

<PAGE>

      (c) The date fixed for redemption of any Debentures as a result of a Tax
Event will be within 180 days following the occurrence of the Tax Event;
provided, however, that if at the time the Company is able to eliminate, within
the 180 day period, the Tax Event by taking some ministerial action that has no
adverse effect on the Company or the Holders, the Company shall pursue such
action in lieu of redemption; provided, further, that the Company will have no
right or obligation to redeem the Debentures while it is pursuing such
ministerial action.

      (d) Article XIII of the Base Indenture shall be applicable to the
Debentures, except that:

            (i) "Tax Event" in the Base Indenture shall have the meaning set
      forth in Section 1.01(g) hereof;

            (ii) "Redemption Price" in the Base Indenture shall mean, in the
      case of a redemption of the Debentures in whole or in part on or after
      December 15, 2015, the Par Redemption Amount, and in the case of a
      redemption in whole prior to December 15, 2015, the greater of (A) the Par
      Redemption Amount and (B) the Make-Whole Redemption Amount; and

            (iii) Section 13.8 of the Base Indenture shall not apply.

      Section 2.10 . Events of Default. (a) Section 5.1 of the Base Indenture is
hereby amended and supplemented with respect to the Debentures by deleting
clauses (1), (3) and (4) thereof and adding the following additional Event of
Default:

            (i) the Company defaults in the payment of interest on any of the
      Debt Securities when such interest becomes due and payable and such
      default continues for a period of 30 calendar days, whether or not such
      payment is prohibited by the subordination provisions of the Indenture;
      provided that the deferral of interest pursuant to a valid Extension
      Period satisfying Section 2.06, Section 2.07 and Section 2.08, as
      applicable, of the Second Supplemental Indenture shall not constitute a
      default in the payment of interest.

      (b) The first paragraph of Section 5.2 of the Base Indenture is hereby
modified with respect to the Debentures by replacing the same with the
following: "If an Event of Default with respect to the Debt Securities of any
series at the time Outstanding occurs and is continuing, then in every such case
the Trustee or the Holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the
Outstanding Debt Securities of such series may declare the principal amount of
all the Debt Securities of such series to be due and payable immediately, by a
notice in writing to the Company

                                       18

<PAGE>

(and to the Trustee if given by Holders), and upon any such declaration, such
principal amount, plus accrued and unpaid interest (other than Foregone
Interest, in the event of a Bankruptcy Default), and premium, if payable, shall
become immediately due and payable; provided, however, the payment of such
principal, premium, if any, and interest, if any, on the Debt Securities of such
series shall remain subordinated to the extent provided in the Indenture. Upon
payment of such amount in the Currency in which such Debt Securities are
denominated (except as otherwise provided pursuant to Sections 3.1 or 3.10), all
obligations of the Company in respect of the payment of principal of the Debt
Securities of such series shall terminate."

      Section 2.11 . Covenant Defaults. (a) The Base Indenture is hereby amended
and supplemented with respect to the Debentures as follows:

            (i) The last paragraph of Section 5.3 is amended in its entirety as
      follows: "If an Event of Default or a TIA Covenant Default with respect to
      Debt Securities of any series occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may in
      its discretion proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of
      the Holders of Debt Securities of such series by such appropriate judicial
      proceedings as the Trustee shall deem most effectual to protect and
      enforce any such rights, whether for the specific enforcement of any
      covenant or agreement in this Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any
      power granted herein, or to enforce any other proper remedy."

            (ii) Section 5.3 is further supplemented by adding the following
      paragraph following the last paragraph, as amended, in clause (i) above:
      "If a Covenant Default with respect to the Debt Securities of any series
      occurs and is continuing, the Trustee may in its discretion proceed to
      protect and enforce its rights by such appropriate judicial proceedings as
      the Trustee shall deem most effectual to protect and enforce any such
      rights, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement
      in this Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted herein,
      or to enforce any other proper remedy. If a Covenant Default other than a
      TIA Covenant Default with respect to the Debt Securities of any series
      occurs and is continuing, and then only if the Trustee is directed by
      Holders pursuant to and in accordance with Section 5.12 of the Base
      Indenture, the Trustee shall proceed to protect and enforce the rights of
      the Holders of Debt Securities of such series by such appropriate judicial
      proceedings as such Holders shall so direct to protect and enforce any
      such rights, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or
      agreement in this Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted
      herein, or to enforce any other proper remedy."

            (iii) Section 5.7, clause (1) is amended in its entirety as follows:
      "such Holder has previously given written notice to the Trustee of a

                                       19

<PAGE>

      continuing Event of Default or Covenant Default, as the case may be, with
      respect to such series."

            (iv) Section 5.7, clause (2) is amended in its entirety as follows:
      "the Holders of not less than 25% in principal amount, in the case of an
      Event of Default, or a majority in principal amount, in the case of a
      Covenant Default, of the Outstanding Debt Securities of such series shall
      have made written request to the Trustee to institute proceedings in
      respect of such Event of Default or such Covenant Default, as the case may
      be, in its own name as Trustee hereunder."

            (v) Section 5.11 is amended in its entirety as follows: "No delay or
      omission of the Trustee or of any Holder to exercise any right or remedy
      accruing upon any Event of Default or Covenant Default shall impair any
      such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default
      or Covenant Default or any acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy
      given by this Indenture or by law to the Trustee or to the Holders may be
      exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by
      the Trustee or by the Holders, as the case may be".

            (vi) Section 6.1(b) is amended in its entirety as follows: "In case
      an Event of Default or a TIA Covenant Default with respect to Debt
      Securities of any series has occurred and is continuing, the Trustee
      shall, with respect to the Debt Securities of such series, exercise such
      of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture, and use the same
      degree of care and skill in their exercise, as a prudent man would
      exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his own
      affairs."

            (vii) The first paragraph of Section 6.8(c) is amended in its
      entirety as follows: "For the purposes of this Section, the Trustee shall
      be deemed to have a conflicting interest with respect to the Debt
      Securities of any series, if there shall exist an Event of Default or
      Covenant Default (as such term is defined herein or in the Second
      Supplemental Indenture, but exclusive of any period of grace or
      requirement of notice) with respect to such Debt Securities and"

      (b) Notwithstanding the foregoing, a Covenant Default shall not constitute
an Event of Default and shall not give rise to any of the rights or duties set
forth in Section 5.2 of the Base Indenture, as amended and supplemented with
respect to the Debentures by this Second Supplemental Indenture.

      Section 2.12 . Designation of Depositary. Initially, the Depositary for
the Debentures will be The Depository Trust Company. The Global Debentures will
be registered in the name of the Depositary or its nominee, Cede & Co., and

                                       20

Indenture relating to the nature, content and date for reports by the Company to
the Holders, to the extent such provisions are mandated by the Trust Indenture
Act of 1939, as amended, shall apply to the Debentures.

      Section 2.16 . Other. (a) The provisions contained in Articles XIV, XVI,
XVIII and XIX of the Base Indenture, the definition of "Senior Indebtedness" and
any provisions in the Base Indenture relating to an RGA Capital Trust shall not
apply to the Debentures.

      (b) The Company agrees, and by acquiring an interest in a Debenture each
beneficial owner of a Debenture agrees, to treat the Debentures as indebtedness
for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

                                   ARTICLE 3

      class or series of the capital stock of the Company for or into another
      class or series of the capital stock of the Company;

            (iii) the purchase of fractional interests in shares of the capital

      obligations of the sellers of such businesses);

      (b) make any payment of principal of, or interest or premium, if any, on,
or repay, repurchase or redeem any debt securities issued by the Company that
rank pari passu with or junior in interest to the Debentures other than any
payment, repurchase or redemption in respect of Parity Debt Securities made

to the benefits of the subordination provisions of the Indenture irrespective of

any extension or renewal of the Senior Indebtedness. Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary in the foregoing, Senior Indebtedness shall not include (i)
indebtedness incurred for the purchase of goods or materials or for services

direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided by the Base
Indenture to be given or taken by Holders may be embodied in one or more
instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such Holders in person or
by an agent or proxy duly appointed in writing; and, except as otherwise
expressly provided in the Base Indenture, such action will become effective when
such instrument or instruments are delivered to the Trustee and, where expressly
required, to the Company. Whenever Holders of a specified percentage in
aggregate principal amount may take any act, such act may be evidenced by: (i)
instruments executed by Holders; (ii) the record of Holders voting in favor
thereof at any meeting of the Holders; or (iii) a combination of such
instruments and any such record of such a meeting of Holders.

First Supplemental Indenture does not apply to the Debentures. To the extent the
terms of the Base Indenture are amended by the First Supplemental Indenture, no
such amendment shall relate to the Debentures. To the extent the terms of the
Base Indenture are amended as provided herein, no such amendment shall in any
way affect the terms of the First Supplemental Indenture or any other series of
Debt Securities. This Second Supplemental Indenture shall relate solely to the
Debentures.

      Section 5.04 . Trustee Not Responsible for Recitals. The recitals
contained herein are made by the Company and not by the Trustee, and the Trustee
assumes no responsibility for the correctness thereof. The Trustee makes no
representation as to the validity or sufficiency of this Second Supplemental
Indenture.

      Section 5.05 . Governing Law. This Second Supplemental Indenture and the
Debentures shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of
the State of New York.

      Section 5.06 . Severability. In case any one or more of the provisions
contained in this Second Supplemental Indenture or in the Debentures shall for
any reason be held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect, such
invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provisions
of this Second Supplemental Indenture or of the Debentures, but this Second
Supplemental Indenture and the Debentures shall be construed as if such invalid
or illegal or unenforceable provision had never been contained herein or
therein.

      Section 5.07 . Counterparts. This Second Supplemental Indenture may be
executed in any number of counterparts each of which shall be an original; but
such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument.

      Section 5.08 . Successors and Assigns. All covenants and agreements in the
Indenture by the Company shall bind its successors and assigns, whether
expressed or not. The Company will have the right at all times to assign any of
its respective rights or obligations under the Indenture to a direct or indirect
wholly owned Subsidiary of the Company; provided that, in the event of any such
assignment, the Company will remain liable for all of its respective
obligations. Subject to the foregoing, the Indenture will be binding upon and
inure to the benefit of the parties thereto and their respective successors and
assigns. The Indenture may not otherwise be assigned by the parties thereto.

                             [REVERSE OF DEBENTURE]

                   REINSURANCE GROUP OF AMERICA, INCORPORATED

                  6.75% JUNIOR SUBORDINATED DEBENTURES DUE 2065

      To the extent that any rights or other provisions of this Debenture differ
from or are inconsistent with those contained in the Indenture, then the
Indenture shall control. Capitalized terms used herein but not defined shall
have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture referred to below unless
otherwise indicated.

      1. Principal and Interest

      REINSURANCE GROUP OF AMERICA, INCORPORATED, a Missouri corporation
(including any successor corporation under the Indenture hereinafter referred
to, the "COMPANY"), promises to pay interest on the principal amount of this
Debenture at the Fixed Rate from December 8, 2005 to December 15, 2015, and at
the Floating Rate from December 15, 2015 to the Stated Maturity.

      Subject to Section 2.06, Section 2.07 and Section 2.08 of the Second
Supplemental Indenture, (a) during the Fixed Rate Period, this Debenture will
accrue interest at a rate per annum of 6.75% of the principal amount of $1,000
per Debenture, payable semi-annually in arrears on June 15 and December 15 of
each year (each a "FIXED RATE INTEREST PAYMENT DATE"), commencing on June 15,
2006 and (b) during the Floating Rate Period, this Debenture will accrue
interest at a rate per annum of 3-month LIBOR plus a margin equal to 266.5 basis
points, payable quarterly in arrears on March 15, June 15, September 15 and
December 15 of each year (each a "FLOATING RATE INTEREST PAYMENT DATE" and
together with the Fixed Rate Interest Payment Date, an "INTEREST PAYMENT DATE"),
commencing on March 15, 2016. Interest not paid on any Interest Payment Date,
including any interest deferred during any Extension Period, will accrue and
compound at the from time to time then applicable interest rate (whether
semi-annually at the Fixed Rate or quarterly at the Floating Rate, as the case
may be), as provided in the Indenture. Subject to Section 2.05(a)(iii), such
interest will accrue and compound to the date that it is actually paid.

      The amount of interest on this Debenture payable for any Interest Payment
Date during the Fixed Rate Period shall be computed (i) for any full Interest
Payment Period on the basis of a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months, (ii) for
any period shorter than a full Interest Payment Period, on the basis of a 30-day
month and (iii) for any period shorter than a 30-day month, on the basis of the
actual number of days elapsed in the 30-day month. Floating Rate interest on
this

                                      A-5

<PAGE>

Debenture shall be computed on the basis of a 360-day year and the actual
number of days elapsed in the 360-day year.

      2. Optional Deferral of Interest

      Subject to Section 2.06 and Section 2.08 of the Second Supplemental
Indenture, as long as no Event of Default or Mandatory Deferral Event has
occurred and is continuing, the Company shall have the right at any time and
from time to time, to defer payments of interest on the Debentures by extending
the Interest Payment Period on the Debentures for a period (an "OPTIONAL
EXTENSION PERIOD") not exceeding ten years, during which Optional Extension
Period deferred interest on the Debentures shall not be due and payable. Subject
to Section 2.08 and the above requirements, prior to the termination of any
Extension Period, the Company may further defer payments of interest by further
extending such Extension Period. Upon the termination of any Extension Period
and the payment of all accrued and unpaid interest, together with any Compounded
Interest thereon, the Company may commence a new Extension Period, subject to
Section 2.08 and the above requirements, there being no limit on the number of
such new Extension Periods the Company may begin.

      During an Optional Extension Period, the Company shall not (and shall not
permit any of its Subsidiaries to) make the payments or take any of the actions
set forth in Section 3.01 of the Second Supplemental Indenture.

      3. Mandatory Deferral of Interest

      Subject to Section 2.07 and Section 2.08 of the Second Supplemental
Indenture, if and to the extent that a Mandatory Deferral Event has occurred and
is continuing as of any Interest Payment Date, the Company shall defer payments
of interest on the Debentures by extending the Interest Payment Period on the
Debentures for a period not exceeding ten years (a "MANDATORY EXTENSION
PERIOD"), during which Mandatory Extension Period deferred interest on the
Debentures shall not be due and payable, except to the extent that any such
payment is made using the Alternative Coupon Satisfaction Mechanism.

      By acquiring this Debenture or an interest herein, the Holder or
beneficial owner of this Debenture, as the case may be, agrees that in the event
of a Bankruptcy Default prior to the Stated Maturity or redemption of this
Debenture, any unpaid Mandatorily Deferred Interest in excess of 25% of the then
outstanding principal amount of this Debenture (or the portion of this Debenture
in which such beneficial owner holds an interest) (the "FOREGONE INTEREST")
shall not be due and payable and no Holder or beneficial owner will have any
claim for, and thus any right to receive, such Foregone Interest.

                                      A-6

<PAGE>

      Mandatorily Deferred Interest on the Debentures may only be satisfied
using the Alternative Coupon Satisfaction Mechanism except upon an Event of
Default, in which case such Mandatorily Deferred Interest may be satisfied
without regard to the Alternative Coupon Satisfaction Mechanism. In the event
that a Mandatory Deferral Event is no longer continuing, subsequent interest may
be paid in cash without regard to the Alternative Coupon Satisfaction Mechanism.

      During a Mandatory Extension Period, the Company shall not (and shall not
permit any of its Subsidiaries to) make the payments or take any of the actions
set forth in Section 3.01 of the Second Supplemental Indenture.

      4. Extension Periods in General

      The Holder of this Debenture, and each beneficial owner of an interest in
this Debenture, by accepting the same, agrees to and shall be bound by the
deferral provisions in the Indenture, including Section 2.06, Section 2.07, and
Section 2.08 of the Second Supplemental Indenture.

      At the termination of any Extension Period, the Company shall pay all
deferred interest then accrued and unpaid, together with Compounded Interest, on
the Interest Payment Date on which such Extension Period terminates, subject to
Section 2.07. An Extension Period will be deemed to terminate upon any
redemption or upon any acceleration of the Stated Maturity.

      In no event shall any Extension Period, whether or not consisting of
consecutive Interest Payment Periods, (i) exceed ten years, (ii) end on a date
other than an Interest Payment Date or (iii) extend beyond the Stated Maturity.
For purposes of calculating the foregoing limitation on Extension Periods, (x)
only when all accrued and unpaid interest, together with any Compounded Interest
thereon, has been paid will any Interest Payment Period during which interest
has been deferred no longer be included; and (y) after the commencement of an
Optional Extension Period, the period from the first Interest Payment Date for
which interest was deferred pursuant to Section 2.06 of the Second Supplemental
Indenture and ending on the Interest Payment Date on which all interest that was
deferred pursuant to such Section 2.06, including Compounded Interest, is paid
in full, shall be included for purposes of calculating the length of an Optional
Extension Period.

      5. Method of Payment

duly provided for, on any Interest Payment Date shall be paid to the Person in
