FEES AND EXPENSES |
LOCATION IN
PROSPECTUS | ||
| Charges for Early
Withdrawals |
If, during the first ten Policy Years, or during the first ten Policy
Years following a face amount increase, You surrender or
lapse your Policy, reduce the face amount, or make a
partial withdrawal or make a change in death benefit
option that reduces the face amount, then we will deduct
a Surrender Charge from the Cash Value.
The maximum Surrender Charge is 3.825% of specified face amount.
For example, the maximum Surrender Charge during the
first year after issue (or a specified face amount
increase), assuming an initial face amount (or subsequent
specified face amount increase) of $100,000, is
$3,825. |
“Charges - Surrender
Charge, Partial
Withdrawal Charge” | ||
| Transaction Charges |
In addition to Surrender Charges, You also may be charged for other
transactions (such as when You make a Premium payment, transfer
Cash Value between investment options, make a partial withdrawal, or request an illustration if You have requested more than one illustration in a year). |
“Charges - Deductions
from
Premiums,

| Ongoing Fees and
Expenses (annual
charges) |
In addition to Surrender Charges and transaction charges, an
investment in the Policy is subject to certain ongoing
fees and expenses, including fees and expenses covering
the cost of insurance under the Policy and optional
benefits added by rider, and such fees and expenses are
set based on characteristics of the Insured (e.g.,
Age, sex and risk classification). There is also a mortality and expense risk charge deducted. You should review the Policy specifications page of your Policy for rates applicable to your Policy.

PROSPECTUS | ||
| Not a Short- Term
Investment |
The Policies are designed to provide lifetime insurance protection.
They should not be used as a short-term investment or if
You need
ready access to cash, because You will be charged when You make
Premium payments and You may also pay Surrender Charges when surrendering the Policy or taking a partial withdrawal. In addition,
surrenders or withdrawals may be subject to ordinary income tax or
tax penalties. |
“Principal Risks” | ||
| Risks Associated with
Investment Options |
An investment in this Policy is subject to the risk of poor investment
performance and can vary depending on the performance of
the investment options available under the Policy (e.g.,
Portfolios). Each
investment option (including any Fixed Account investment option)
has its own unique risks. You should review the investment options
before making an investment decision. |
“Principal Risks” | ||
| Insurance Company
Risks |
Investments in the Policy are subject to the risks related to
Metropolitan Life, including any obligations (including
under any Fixed Account investment option), guarantees, and benefits of the Policy, including any death benefit, which are subject to the claims
paying ability of Metropolitan Life. If Metropolitan Life experiences
financial distress, it may not be able to meet its
obligations to You.
More information about Metropolitan Life, including its financial
strength ratings, is available upon request by calling
(800) 638-5000 or visiting: https://www.metlife.com/about-us/corporate-profile/ ratings. |
“Prinicipal Risks” | ||
| Contract Lapse |
Your Policy may lapse if You have not paid a sufficient amount of
Premiums or if the investment experience of the Portfolios is poor, You have taken partial withdrawals, or the Cash Surrender
Value under your Policy is insufficient to cover the Monthly Deduction.
Lapse of a Policy on which there is an outstanding loan may have
adverse tax consequences. If the Policy lapses, no death
benefit will be paid. A Policy may be reinstated if the
conditions for reinstatement are met including the
payment of required Premiums. |
“Prinicipal Risks” | ||
| |
RESTRICTIONS |
LOCATION IN
PROSPECTUS | ||
| Investments |
Policy Owners may transfer Cash Value between and among the
Divisions and the Fixed Account. There are limitations on transfers from the Fixed Account and limits on the minimum amount Policy Owners may transfer. Metropolitan Life also reserves the right to
limit transfers to four (4) per Policy Year and to impose a charge of
$25 per transfer. Restrictions may apply to frequent
transfers. Metropolitan Life reserves the right to remove or substitute
Portfolios as investment options that are available under
the Policy. |
“Transfer Charge” and
“Transfers” | ||
| Optional Benefits |
The Option to Purchase Additional Insurance Coverage Rider,
Overloan Protection Rider, Guaranteed Survivor Income
Benefit Rider and Guaranteed Minimum Death Benefit Rider
were available to be elected at Policy issue only. The
Children's Term Insurance Rider, Waiver of Monthly
Deduction Rider, Waiver of Specified Premium Rider, and

TAXES |
LOCATION IN
PROSPECTUS | ||
| Tax Implications |
Consult with a tax professional to determine the tax implications of
an investment in and payments received under this
Policy. Withdrawals may be subject to ordinary income tax,
and may be subject to tax penalties.
Lapse of a Policy on which there is an outstanding loan may have
adverse tax consequences. |

CONFLICTS OF INTEREST |
LOCATION IN
PROSPECTUS | ||
| Investment
Professional
Compensation |
Your investment professional may receive compensation relating to
your ownership of a Policy, both in the form of
commissions and continuing payments. This conflict of
interest may influence your investment professional when
advising You on your Policy. |
“Distribution of the
Policies” | ||
| Exchanges |
Some investment professionals may have a financial incentive to
offer you a new policy in place of your current Policy. You should only
exchange your Policy if you determine, after comparing the features,
fees, and risks of both policies, that it is better for you to purchase
the new policy rather than continue to own your existing
Policy. |

GLOSSARY
Age — The age of an Insured refers to the
Insured’s age at his or her nearest birthday.
Attained Age — The Insured’s Issue
Age plus the number of completed Policy Years.
Base Policy — The Policy without riders.
Beneficiary — The beneficiary is the person or persons designated by the Policy Owner to receive insurance proceeds upon the death of the Insured. A beneficiary may be changed as set forth in the Policy and this Prospectus. Unless otherwise stated
in the Policy, the beneficiary has no rights in the Policy before the death of the Insured. If there is more than one beneficiary at the death of the Insured, each will
receive equal payments unless otherwise provided by the Policy Owner.
Cash Surrender Value — The amount you receive if
you surrender the Policy. It is equal to the Policy’s Cash Value
reduced by any Surrender Charge that would apply on surrender and by any outstanding Policy loan and accrued interest.
Cash Value — A Policy’s cash
value includes the amount of its cash value held in the Separate Account, the amount held in the
Fixed Account, if there is an outstanding Policy loan, the amount of its cash value held in the
Loan Account, and any amount held in the EDCA account.
Designated Office — Our designated office varies based on the type of service request
or transaction that you are making. The most recent correspondence 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. Your Premium payment bill will have the address and telephone number that you can use to pay Premiums. We will notify you if there are changes to this information.
Division — A sub-account of the Separate Account that invests in shares of an open-ended management investment company or other pools of investment
assets.
Fixed Account
— The fixed Account is a part of our General Account to which
you may allocate Net Premiums. It provides
guarantees of principal and interest. Aspects of the fixed account are briefly summarized
in order to give a better understanding of how the Policy functions.
Fund — An underlying mutual fund in which the Separate Account assets are invested.
General Account — The assets of Metropolitan Life other than those allocated to the Separate Account.
Indebtedness — The total of any unpaid Policy loan and loan interest.
Insured — The person upon whose life the Policy is issued.
Investment Start Date — This is the later of the Policy Date and the date we first receive a Premium payment for the Policy.
Issue Age — The Age of the Insured as of his or her birthday nearest to the Policy Date.
Loan Account — The account to which Cash Value from the Separate and/or Fixed Accounts is transferred when a Policy loan is taken.
6
Monthly Anniversary — The same date in each month as the Policy Date. For purposes of the Separate Account, whenever the Monthly
Anniversary date falls on a date other than a Valuation Date, the next valuation date will be
deemed to be the Monthly Anniversary.
Net Cash Value — The Policy’s Cash Value less any outstanding loans and accrued loan interest.
Net Premium — The net premium is equal to the
Premium payment minus the sales charge, the premium tax charge, and
the federal tax charge.
Planned Premium — The planned premium is
the Premium payment schedule You choose to help meet your future goals under the Policy. The planned premium consists of a first-year Premium amount and an amount for Premium payments in subsequent Policy years. It is subject to certain limits under the Policy.
Policy Date — The date on which coverage under the Policy and Monthly Deductions begin. If You make a Premium payment
with the application, unless You request otherwise, the policy date is generally the date the Policy application is approved. If You choose to pay the initial Premium upon delivery of the Policy, unless You request otherwise, the policy date is generally the date on which we receive your initial payment. The policy date is used to
measure Policy Years, Policy months, and Policy anniversaries.
Policy Year — A policy year is a 12 month period between the anniversaries of a Policy. The first
policy year starts on the Policy Date.
Portfolio — A portfolio represents a
class (or series) of stock of a Fund in which a Division’s assets are
invested.
Premiums — Premiums include all payments under the Policy, whether a Planned Premium or an unscheduled payment.
Separate Account — Metropolitan Life Separate Account UL, a
separate account established by MetLife to receive and invest Premiums paid
under the Policies and certain other variable life insurance policies, and to provide variable benefits.
Target Premium — We use the target premium to determine the amount of Mortality and Expense Risk Charge imposed on the Separate Account and the amount of Sales Charge imposed on Premium payments. The target
premium varies by Issue Age, sex (except for unisex Policies), smoking status and any flat extras and substandard rating of the Insured,
and the Policy’s base face amount, with additional amounts for most riders.
Valuation Date — Each day on which the New York Stock Exchange is open for trading or, on days other than when the New
York Stock Exchange is open, on which it is determined that there is a sufficient degree of trading in a Fund's portfolio securities that the current net asset value of
its redeemable securities might be materially affected. Valuations for any date other than a valuation date will be determined as of the next valuation date.
Valuation Period — The period between two successive Valuation Dates, commencing at
4:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on each Valuation Date and ending at 4:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on the next succeeding Valuation Date.
You — “You” refers to the Policy Owner.
