General Account Assets Under Management (“GA AUM”) (as well as other measures based on GA AUM, such as GA Mortgage Loan AUM, GA Commercial Mortgage Loan AUM, GA Agricultural Mortgage Loan AUM, GA Residential Mortgage Loan AUM and GA Real Estate Equity AUM) are used by MetLife to describe assets in its GA investment portfolio which are actively managed and stated at estimated fair value.

Classification of GA AUM by sector is based on the nature and characteristics of the underlying investments which can vary from how they are classified under GAAP. Accordingly, the underlying investments within certain real estate and real estate joint ventures that are primarily commercial mortgage loans (at NAV) have been reclassified to exclude them from GA Real Estate Equity AUM and include them in both GA Mortgage Loan AUM and GA Commercial Mortgage Loan AUM (“Reclassification”).
