MML Series Investment Fund Report – President's Letter to Shareholders
To Our Shareholders
Richard J. Byrne
Given the numerous challenges the market presented to investors in 2007, we believe current market conditions emphasize the critical nature of maintaining a disciplined focus on a long-term investment strategy. Financial professionals recommend that investment strategies align with an individual's risk tolerance, financial goals and time horizon—employing diversification based on these factors. It is extremely difficult to predict future market conditions, so developing and maintaining an appropriate investment strategy is key during periods of market volatility.
December 31, 2007
2007's challenging environment
Equities and fixed-income investments both advanced in 2007, although stocks in the U.S. stumbled in the last few months of the year. For the 12-month period ended December 31, 2007, the Dow Jones Industrial AverageSM ("the Dow"), a benchmark of blue-chip stocks, returned 6.43% and the S&P 500® Index, a measure of U.S. large-cap stock performance, gained 5.49%. The leader in the U.S. equity markets was the NASDAQ Composite® Index ("NASDAQ"), a barometer of technology stock performance, which advanced 9.81%. In foreign developed equity markets, the Morgan Stanley Capital International Europe, Australasia, Far East ("MSCI® EAFE®") Index outperformed most of its U.S. counterparts with its 11.17% return. In the fixed-income arena, the Lehman Brothers® Aggregate Bond Index, a broad measure of the U.S. investment-grade bond market, advanced 6.97%.*
Stocks in the U.S. showed little change during the first quarter of 2007, despite a significant increase in volatility. The Dow declined slightly; conversely, the S&P 500 Index and the NASDAQ each finished with a small advance. The depreciating U.S. dollar continued to support the returns of foreign stocks – helping drive the strong performance of the MSCI EAFE Index. Investor concerns about the weak housing market and subprime lender problems caused higher-quality bond prices to rally and yields to ease. Bond prices move in the opposite direction of interest rates (or yields); when yields rise, the prices of existing bonds fall – and vice versa. In this environment, the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index posted a positive return for the first quarter of 2007.
Most U.S. stock indexes advanced in the second quarter of 2007, as stocks rode a wave of optimism over corporate earnings and overcame short periods of increased volatility associated with investor concerns about soft retail sales, rising interest rates, inflation, the housing market and subprime mortgages. Performance was mixed among fixed-income categories, but investors favored shorter-term bonds.
Most categories of domestic stocks finished the third quarter of 2007 higher, despite significant market volatility caused by the escalating subprime mortgage crisis. In August, the Federal Reserve ("Fed") cut the discount rate – the interest rate that regional Fed banks charge banks and other financial institutions when they borrow funds on a short-term basis – by 0.50%. After some negative movement in key economic indicators, the Fed lowered the closely watched target federal funds rate by 0.50% to 4.75%, simultaneously cutting the discount rate an additional 0.50% at its September 18 meeting. The federal funds rate is the interest rate that banks and other financial institutions charge each other for borrowing funds overnight. As a result, most broad-based U.S. stock indexes were trading near their all-time highs at the end of the quarter, and the MSCI EAFE Index advanced slightly. In the bond marketplace, growing concerns about a weakening economy triggered a decline in bond yields and boosted prices, helping the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index advance for the quarter.
The fourth quarter began on a positive note, with investors still savoring the third-quarter Fed-engineered interest rate cuts. The Fed's fourth-quarter interest rate reductions (which totaled an additional 0.50% each from both the federal funds and discount rates) failed to help investor confidence in the face of inflationary pressures, lackluster holiday retail sales and news detailing the ramifications of subprime exposure on large financial companies. U.S. equities traded lower, as ongoing weakness in the housing market, escalating subprime concerns and crude oil prices that approached $100 per barrel undermined investor confidence. Foreign stocks were not immune during this difficult period: The MSCI EAFE Index fell 1.75% for the fourth quarter. In this environment,

higher-quality bonds performed well amid growing concerns about a slowing economy and even a possible recession in the United States. In the end, the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index advanced 3.00% for the quarter.
A look back at 2007 as we head into 2008
Above all, 2007 was a year in which the subprime mortgage situation developed from a concern into a full-blown crisis. There had been speculation for some time that many subprime mortgages, with their low teaser interest rates scheduled to reset at much higher levels, were a potential threat to borrowers and, by extension, those who invested in securities backed by those loans. The dangers of subprime borrowing didn't seem to grab investors' attention, however, until the situation got bad enough to damage the earnings of some of Wall Street's largest and strongest blue-chip financial companies – such as Bear Stearns, Citigroup, Merrill Lynch, Morgan Stanley and Wachovia. Fourth-quarter profit projections for S&P 500 companies as a group swung from an 11.5% gain at the beginning of October 2007 to a 6.1% drop as of December 31, 2007, mainly due to the deteriorating environment in the financial sector. This movement represented the la rgest quarterly shift since 1999, according to Reuters Estimates.
Outlook
While the fourth-quarter earnings outlook was scaled back considerably, consensus estimates for 2008 remained upbeat, particularly for the second half of the year. Those forecasts assume that the economy will avoid a recession, in part because of an accommodative Fed. While the Fed has demonstrated its willingness to lower interest rates in order to head off a recession, inflationary pressures could limit the central bank's choices going forward. We are cautious, but the truth is that we cannot predict when recessions will occur. It is also true that stocks can perform well during a slowdown as long as economic activity doesn't decelerate too much. Given the difficulty of predicting future market conditions, you may want to consider consulting your financial representative. He or she can work with you to develop a course of action that will help you stay invested for the long term, according to a plan that fits your risk tolerance, time hori zon and financial objectives.

MML Large Cap Value Fund – Portfolio Manager Report
What is the investment objective of the MML Large Cap Value Fund – and who is the Fund's sub-adviser? The Fund seeks both capital growth and income by selecting businesses that possess characteristics that the Fund's sub-adviser, Davis Selected Advisers, L.P. (Davis) believes foster the creation of long-term value, such as proven management, a durable franchise and business model, and sustainable competitive advantages.
How did the Fund perform during the 12 months ended December 31, 2007? The Fund returned 4.22%, trailing the 5.49% return of the S&P 500® Index, a widely recognized, unmanaged index representative of common stocks of larger capitalized U.S. companies. The Fund did, however, outpace the -0.17% return of the Russell 1000® Value Index, an unmanaged index representative of stocks with a greater-than-average value orientation among the stocks of the largest 1000 U.S. companies based on capitalization.
What was the investment background during the period? Domestic stocks showed little change during the first quarter of 2007, despite a significant increase in volatility across the board. Although the Dow Jones Industrial AverageSM ("the Dow") notched a new closing high in February, the blue-chip benchmark declined slightly for the three months ended March 31, 2007. The S&P 500 Index finished with a small advance, as did the NASDAQ Composite® Index ("NASDAQ"), a barometer of technology stock performance, which barely managed to post a gain for the period. A depreciating U.S. dollar supported the returns of foreign stocks, helping the Morgan Stanley Capital International Europe, Australasia, Far East ("MSCI® EAFE®") Index outperform its U.S. counterparts for the quarter. Most U.S. stock i ndexes advanced in the second quarter, with some setting records along the way. Stocks rode a wave of optimism over corporate earnings early in the quarter and later overcame short periods of increased volatility associated with investor concerns about soft retail sales, rising interest rates, inflation, the housing market and subprime mortgages. During the period, the housing market remained depressed, and long-term interest rates moved decisively higher. Crude oil surged to close the quarter near $70 per barrel.
Most categories of domestic stocks finished the third quarter of 2007 higher, despite significant market volatility caused by the escalating subprime mortgage crisis. In August, the Federal Reserve ("Fed") cut the discount rate – the interest rate that regional Fed banks charge banks and other financial institutions when they borrow funds on a short-term basis – by 0.50%. After some negative movement in key economic indicators, the Fed lowered the closely watched target federal funds rate by 0.50% to 4.75%, simultaneously cutting the discount rate an additional 0.50% at its September 18 meeting. The federal funds rate is the interest rate that banks and other financial institutions charge each other for borrowing funds overnight. As a result, most broad-based U.S. stock indexes were trading near their all-time highs at the end of the third quarter, and the MSCI EAFE Index advanced slightly. The fourth quarter began on a positive no te, with investors still savoring the third-quarter Fed-engineered interest rate cuts. The Fed's fourth-quarter interest rate reductions (which totaled an additional 0.50% each from both the federal funds and discount rates) failed to help investor confidence in the face of inflationary pressures, lackluster holiday retail sales and news detailing the ramifications of subprime exposure on large financial companies. U.S. equities traded lower, as ongoing weakness in the housing market, escalating subprime concerns and crude oil prices that approached $100 per barrel undermined investor confidence. Foreign stocks were not immune during this difficult period: The MSCI EAFE Index fell 1.75% for the fourth quarter.
What factors contributed to the Fund's performance? In the first three months of 2007, the Fund's allocations to the health care and materials sectors fueled its performance – and helped balance the results from other sectors, which were flat to modestly negative. Individual contributors during the period included Martin Marietta, EOG Resources, Vulcan Materials, Loews Corp. and CVS/Caremark (formed out of the merger between CVS and Caremark Rx in March). Conversely, the stocks that detracted most from the Fund's return in the first quarter included Harley-Davidson, American Express, Comcast, American International Group and Progressive Corp. In the second quarter of 2007, the Fund's allocations to the financials, energy, consumer discretionary and consumer staples sectors contributed to its performance, while detractors were largely stock s pecific.

MML Large Cap Value Fund – Portfolio Manager Report (Continued)
In the third quarter of 2007, the Fund's holdings in the energy and consumer staples sectors were the largest contributors to the Fund's performance, while select holdings in the consumer discretionary sector detracted. Finally, in the fourth quarter of 2007, the Fund's investments in the energy, consumer staples and information technology sectors were the greatest drivers of the portfolio's returns. Conversely, individual stocks in the consumer discretionary and financial sectors hampered the Fund's progress.
What is your outlook? Whatever happens in 2008 and whatever styles, industries or market capitalizations move into or out of favor, we remain committed to our investment discipline of buying durable businesses at value prices and holding them for the long term. We believe that keen attention to stock selection, in tandem with a sensible framework for building portfolios, can help the Fund withstand a variety of market conditions.

MML Equity Index Fund – Portfolio Manager Report
What is the investment objective of the MML Equity Index Fund – and who is the Fund's sub-adviser? The Fund seeks to provide investment results that correspond to the price and yield performance of publicly traded common stocks in the aggregate as represented by the S&P 500® Index. The Fund pursues this objective by investing at least 80% of its net assets in the securities of companies that make up the S&P 500 Index. The Fund's sub-adviser is Northern Trust Investments, N.A. (Northern).
How did the Fund perform during the 12 months ended December 31, 2007? The Fund's Class I shares returned 5.13%, lagging the 5.49% return of the S&P 500 Index, a widely recognized, unmanaged index representative of common stocks of larger capitalized U.S. companies.
What was the investment background during the period? Overcoming a dip in the market in February, U.S. equity markets posted positive numbers for the first half of 2007, despite negative pressures surrounding subprime loan defaults, rising interest rates and geopolitical conflicts in the Middle East and Asia. The S&P 500 Index closed at an all-time high in May. Ongoing merger and acquisition activity, takeover announcements and strong earnings reports also contributed to the markets' performance in the first quarter of 2007. On January 18, 2007, crude oil prices dropped to $51 a barrel on higher-than-expected supply news. This retreat was short-lived, as oil closed higher at the end of the second quarter, at around $70 per barrel. The Federal Reserve ("Fed") kept interest rates unchanged during the second quarter of 2007.
Most categories of domestic stocks finished the third quarter of 2007 higher, despite significant market volatility caused by the escalating subprime mortgage crisis. In August, the Fed cut the discount rate – the interest rate that regional Fed banks charge banks and other financial institutions when they borrow funds on a short-term basis – by 0.50%. After some negative movement in key economic indicators, the Fed lowered the closely watched target federal funds rate by 0.50% to 4.75%, simultaneously cutting the discount rate an additional 0.50% at its September 18 meeting. The federal funds rate is the interest rate that banks and other financial institutions charge each other for borrowing funds overnight. As a result, most broad-based U.S. stock indexes were trading near their all-time highs at the end of the quarter. The fourth quarter began on a positive note, with investors still savoring the third-quarter Fed-engineered in terest rate cuts. The Fed's fourth-quarter interest rate reductions (which totaled an additional 0.50% each from both the federal funds and discount rates) failed to bolster investor confidence in the face of inflationary pressures, lackluster holiday retail sales and news detailing the ramifications of subprime exposure on large financial companies. U.S. equities traded lower, as ongoing weakness in the housing market, escalating subprime concerns and crude oil prices that approached $100 per barrel undermined investor confidence.
What factors contributed to the Fund's performance? Large capitalization stocks, as represented by the S&P 500 Index, returned 5.49% for the one-year period ended December 31, 2007. Large-cap stocks outpaced their small-cap counterparts for the 12-month period, as measured by the Russell 2000® Index, which returned -1.56%. From a style perspective, value stocks outpaced their growth competitors in the first half of 2007, while the trend reversed itself in the second half.
For full-year 2007, positive performance within sectors was broad based, with eight of 10 sectors posting positive returns. The energy, information technology and consumer staples sectors added the most value. The energy sector had the largest return for the 12-month period, with its advance of 34.40%. The information technology sector saw strong performance from computer and Internet software securities. Within the consumer staples sector, beverage and household product industry groups added the most value. Conversely, the financial and consumer discretionary sectors were the only detractors for the 12-month period. Financials were down 18.63% for the year, as the subprime fallout and housing slowdown had disastrous consequences for that market sector.
What is your outlook? As we enter 2008, investors face a wide array of challenges. These include the price of oil, the subprime crisis, Fed policy and inflation, to name just a few. Despite these uncertainties, we believe that the Fund continues to be positioned to pursue returns that are consistent with those of the S&P 500 Index.

MML Growth Equity Fund – Portfolio Manager Report
What is the investment objective of the MML Growth Equity Fund – and who is the Fund's sub-adviser? The Fund seeks long-term growth of capital and future income by normally investing at least 80% of its net assets in the common stocks and securities convertible into common stocks of companies that the Fund's sub-adviser believes offer prospects for long-term growth. Effective November 28, 2007, T. Rowe Price Associates, Inc. (T. Rowe Price) replaced Grantham, Mayo, Van Otterloo & Co. LLC (GMO) as the Fund's sub-adviser.
How did the Fund perform during the 12 months ended December 31, 2007? The Fund returned 4.34%, underperforming the 11.81% return of the Russell 1000® Growth Index, an unmanaged index consisting of those Russell 1000 securities (representing the 1000 largest U.S. companies based on market capitalization) with greater-than-average growth orientation that tend to exhibit higher price-to-book ratios and forecasted growth values than securities in the value universe. The Fund also trailed the 5.49% return of the S&P 500® Index, a widely recognized, unmanaged index representative of common stocks of larger capitalized U.S. companies.
As we originally noted in the Fund's June 30, 2007 semi-annual report, going forward, the Fund's performance will be compared to the Russell 1000 Growth Index rather than the S&P 500 Index because the Russell 1000 Growth Index more closely represents the Fund's investment strategy.
What was the investment background during the period? Domestic stocks showed little change during the first quarter of 2007, despite a significant increase in volatility across the board. Although the Dow Jones Industrial AverageSM ("the Dow") notched a new closing high in February, the blue-chip benchmark declined slightly for the three months ended March 31, 2007. The S&P 500 Index finished with a small advance, as did the NASDAQ Composite® Index ("NASDAQ"), a barometer of technology stock performance, which barely managed to post a gain for the period. Most U.S. stock indexes advanced in the second quarter, with some setting records along the way. Stocks rode a wave of optimism over corporate earnings early in the quarter and later overcame short periods of increased volatility associated with investor concerns ab out soft retail sales, rising interest rates, inflation, the housing market and subprime mortgages. During the period, the housing market remained depressed, and long-term interest rates moved decisively higher. Crude oil surged to close the quarter near $70 per barrel.
Most categories of domestic stocks finished the third quarter of 2007 higher, despite significant market volatility caused by the escalating subprime mortgage crisis. In August, the Federal Reserve ("Fed") cut the discount rate – the interest rate that regional Fed banks charge banks and other financial institutions when they borrow funds on a short-term basis – by 0.50%. After some negative movement in key economic indicators, the Fed lowered the closely watched target federal funds rate by 0.50% to 4.75%, simultaneously cutting the discount rate an additional 0.50% at its September 18 meeting. The federal funds rate is the interest rate that banks and other financial institutions charge each other for borrowing funds overnight. As a result, most broad-based U.S. stock indexes were trading near their all-time highs at the end of the quarter. The Fed's fourth-quarter interest rate reductions (which totaled an additional 0.50% each from both the federal funds and discount rates) failed to help investor confidence in the face of inflationary pressures, lackluster holiday retail sales and news detailing the ongoing impact of subprime exposure on large financial companies. U.S. equities traded lower, as ongoing weakness in the housing market, escalating subprime concerns and crude oil prices that approached $100 per barrel undermined investor confidence.
What factors contributed to the Fund's performance? The portfolio's concentration in high-quality stocks – at the expense of their low-quality counterparts – detracted from returns in the first quarter of 2007. Of the portfolio's investment disciplines (valuation and momentum), momentum benefited performance during the period, whereas valuation detracted. After hindering the Fund's progress in the late-February stock market decline, momentum resumed its favorable performance in March, with a positive finish for the first quarter. Sector selection was a positive influence on results, aided by the Fund's positions in the oil/gas and retail stores sectors and de-emphasis of technology. The Fund's relative positions in the machinery, services and utility sectors all detracted from performance. Turning to the second quarter of 2007, the Fund 's valuation discipline fared poorly in April before stabilizing somewhat in May and June. On the other hand, the momentum portfolio declined steadily throughout the period. Sector selection detracted from the portfolio's returns, although holdings in the oil/gas, construction and automotive sectors

contributed to returns. On the downside, the strategy's overall positioning in retail stores, technology and machinery detracted.
Sector selection hampered the Fund's returns in the third quarter of 2007. Underweight positions in the transportation, financial, and utilities sectors contributed positively to results, whereas the portfolio's overweight position in retail stores and underweight in technology and machinery detracted. In the fourth quarter of 2007, the Fund's valuation investment discipline was detrimental, while momentum proved beneficial. From a sector perspective, the materials and information technology sectors were the leading contributors for the quarter. Consumer discretionary and financials were the laggards, posting negative returns.
What is your outlook? Numerous forces will continue to influence the direction that the market takes throughout 2008. These include the price of oil; the subprime crisis and its impact on housing in particular, and the U.S. economy in general; Fed policy and inflation – to name just a few. Despite these uncertainties, we believe that maintaining our disciplined investment approach will help the Fund successfully withstand any challenges that may lie ahead.

MML NASDAQ-100® Fund – Portfolio Manager Report
What is the investment objective of the MML NASDAQ-100® Fund (formerly known as the MML OTC 100 Fund) – and who is the Fund's sub-adviser? On November 30, 2007, the MML OTC 100 Fund's name changed to the MML NASDAQ-100® Fund. The MML NASDAQ-100 Fund seeks to approximate, as closely as practicable (before fees and expenses), the total return of the NASDAQ-100 Index®. The Fund's sub-adviser is Northern Trust Investments, N.A. (Northern).
How did the Fund perform during the 12 months ended December 31, 2007? The Fund returned 18.86%, moderately exceeding the 18.67% return of the NASDAQ-100 Index. The NASDAQ-100 Index is a modified capitalization-weighted index composed of the 100 largest non-financial companies listed on the National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotations System ("NASDAQ").
What was the investment background during the period? Overcoming a dip in the market in February, U.S. equity markets posted positive numbers for the first half of 2007, despite negative pressures surrounding subprime loan defaults, rising interest rates and geopolitical conflicts in the Middle East and Asia. The S&P 500® Index closed at an all-time high in May. Ongoing merger and acquisition activity, takeover announcements and strong earnings reports also contributed to market performance in the first quarter of 2007. On January 18, 2007, crude oil prices dropped to $51 a barrel on higher-than-expected supply news. This retreat was short-lived, as oil closed higher at the end of the second quarter, at around $70 per barrel. The Federal Reserve ("Fed") kept interest rates unchanged during the second quarter of 2007.
Most categories of domestic stocks finished the third quarter of 2007 higher, despite significant market volatility caused by the escalating subprime mortgage crisis. In August, the Fed cut the discount rate – the interest rate that regional Fed banks charge banks and other financial institutions when they borrow funds on a short-term basis – by 0.50%. After some negative movement in key economic indicators, the Fed lowered the closely watched target federal funds rate by 0.50% to 4.75%, simultaneously cutting the discount rate an additional 0.50% at its September 18 meeting. The federal funds rate is the interest rate that banks and other financial institutions charge each other for borrowing funds overnight. As a result, most broad-based U.S. stock indexes were trading near their all-time highs at the end of the quarter. The fourth quarter began on a positive note, with investors still savoring the third-quarter Fed-engineered in terest rate cuts. The Fed's fourth-quarter interest rate reductions (which totaled an additional 0.50% each from both the federal funds and discount rates) failed to bolster investor confidence in the face of inflationary pressures, lackluster holiday retail sales and news detailing the ramifications of subprime exposure on large financial companies. U.S. equities traded lower, as ongoing weakness in the housing market, escalating subprime concerns and crude oil prices that approached $100 per barrel undermined investor confidence. Foreign stocks were not immune during this difficult period.
What factors contributed to the Fund's performance? Equity markets ended the 12-month period in positive territory, despite the equity markets' difficulties over concerns about credit risk, the health of the financials sector, and its potential effect on the broader economy. The Fed lowered the federal funds rate a total of 1.00% in the second half of the year to counter the tightening of financial conditions and protect against downside risks to the economy.
The federal funds rate ended 2007 at 4.25%, and the discount rate was 4.75% on December 31. The Federal Open Market Committee notes highlighted the "upward pressure on inflation" due to energy and commodity prices. Crude oil continued its climb towards $100 per barrel, surpassing $100 in intra-day trading in December and closing at $95.95 for 2007.
What is your outlook? As we enter 2008, investors face a wide array of challenges. These include the price of oil, the subprime crisis, Fed policy and inflation, to name just a few. Despite these uncertainties, we believe that the Fund continues to be positioned to pursue returns that are consistent with those of the NASDAQ-100 Index.

MML Small Cap Growth Equity Fund – Portfolio Manager Report
What is the investment objective of the MML Small Cap Growth Equity Fund – and who are the Fund's sub-advisers? The Fund seeks long-term capital appreciation by investing primarily in common stocks and equity securities of smaller companies that the Fund's sub-advisers believe offer potential for long-term growth. The Fund's sub-advisers are Wellington Management Company, LLP (Wellington Management) and Waddell & Reed Investment Management Company (Waddell & Reed). Each sub-adviser is responsible for a portion of the portfolio, but not necessarily equal weighted.
How did the Fund perform during the 12 months ended December 31, 2007? The Fund returned 9.66%, outperforming the 7.06% return of the Russell 2000® Growth Index, a widely recognized, unmanaged index that measures the performance of those Russell 2000 Index companies (representing small-capitalization U.S. common stocks) with higher price-to-book ratios and forecasted growth rates. The Fund's 9.66% return also exceeded the -1.56% return of the Russell 2000 Index, a widely recognized, unmanaged index representative of common stocks of smaller capitalized U.S. companies.
As we originally noted in the Fund's June 30, 2007 semi-annual report, going forward, the Fund's performance will be compared to the Russell 2000 Growth Index rather than the Russell 2000 Index because the Russell 2000 Growth Index more closely represents the Fund's investment strategy. The Fund will retain the Russell 2000 Index as its supplemental benchmark for performance comparisons.
What was the investment background during the period? U.S. equity markets rose in the first quarter of 2007, as solid corporate earnings and continued merger and acquisition activity offset concerns of a weakening housing and credit environment. Despite the fact that most major indexes posted positive results, first-quarter returns were marked by extreme volatility. The markets were roiled by the subprime shakeout, a slowing U.S. economy and sentiment swings in emerging markets. In the second quarter of 2007, equity markets generally advanced, as better-than-expected corporate earnings and views of solidifying economic growth outweighed concerns of both rising interest rates and a continuing U.S. housing slump.
Most categories of domestic stocks finished the third quarter of 2007 higher, despite significant market volatility caused by the escalating subprime mortgage crisis. In August, the Federal Reserve ("Fed") cut the discount rate – the interest rate that regional Fed banks charge banks and other financial institutions when they borrow funds on a short-term basis – by 0.50%. After some negative movement in key economic indicators, the Fed lowered the closely watched target federal funds rate by 0.50% to 4.75%, simultaneously cutting the discount rate an additional 0.50% at its September 18 meeting. The federal funds rate is the interest rate that banks and other financial institutions charge each other for borrowing funds overnight. As a result, most broad-based U.S. stock indexes were trading near their all-time highs at the end of the third quarter. The Fed's fourth-quarter interest rate reductions (which totaled an additional 0.50% each from both the federal funds and discount rates) failed to help investor confidence in the face of inflationary pressures, lackluster holiday retail sales and news detailing the ramifications of subprime exposure on large financial companies. U.S. equities traded lower, as ongoing weakness in the housing market, escalating subprime concerns and crude oil prices that approached $100 per barrel undermined investor confidence.
What factors contributed to the Fund's performance? Broad-based, positive results in the consumer discretionary sector aided the Fund's performance in the first quarter of 2007, as did certain portfolio holdings in the financials sector, a sector that under-performed overall. Within energy, lower energy prices and rising costs proved to be a hindrance. Certain telecommunications positions also underperformed. Overall, sector allocation was favorable. On the downside, poor results from the portfolio's information technology stocks detracted. In the second quarter of 2007, the portfolio benefited from strong stock selection in the information technology, health care, financials and consumer discretionary sectors. Conversely, stock selection in consumer staples and telecommunication services hampered performance. Finally, the Fund's performance bene fited from its underweight position in the poor-performing financials sector.
17
MML Small Cap Growth Equity Fund – Portfolio Manager Report (Continued)
During the third quarter of 2007, stock selection was the main performance driver. The Fund's security selection in financials aided results, as did Fund management's choices in the information technology, consumer discretionary, and industrials sectors. Conversely, certain stocks in the industrials sector, in tandem with some holdings in the energy sector, detracted from performance. Turning to the fourth quarter of 2007, from a sector standpoint, it was no surprise that the two poorest-performing sectors were financials and consumer discretionary – as the consumer continued to come under pressure due to the housing downturn, tighter credit availability and rising food and fuel prices. We believe these same components squeezed the financials sector as well. On the other hand, strong security selection, particularly in the energy, materials, information technology and financials sectors, contributed to the Fund's performance.
What is your outlook? In our view, the concerns that developed in 2007, such as the subprime mortgage fallout, inflation fears, possible recession, the housing market slowdown and high energy prices, will continue into 2008 and have the potential to worsen in the short term. As a result, we remain committed to focusing on what we feel are higher-quality growth stocks that have a more sustainable and visible earnings stream with the potential to grow through internal cash flows.

MML Emerging Growth Fund – Portfolio Manager Report
What is the investment objective of the MML Emerging Growth Fund – and who are the Fund's sub-advisers? The Fund seeks capital appreciation by investing primarily in smaller, rapidly growing emerging growth companies, which may include companies growing earnings per share and/or revenues at above-average rates. The Fund's sub-advisers are Delaware Management Company (DMC) and Insight Capital Research & Management, Inc. (Insight Capital). Each sub-adviser is responsible for a portion of the portfolio, but not necessarily equal weighted.
How did the Fund perform during the 12 months ended December 31, 2007? The Fund returned 17.81%, significantly outperforming the 7.06% return of the Russell 2000® Growth Index, a widely recognized, unmanaged index that measures the performance of those Russell 2000 Index companies (representing small-capitalization U.S. common stocks) with higher price-to-book ratios and forecasted growth rates. The Fund's 17.81% return also significantly exceeded the -1.56% return of the Russell 2000 Index, a widely recognized, unmanaged index representative of common stocks of smaller capitalized U.S. companies.
As we originally noted in the Fund's June 30, 2007 semi-annual report, going forward, the Fund's performance will be compared to the Russell 2000 Growth Index rather than the Russell 2000 Index because the Russell 2000 Growth Index more closely represents the Fund's investment strategy.
What was the investment backdrop during the period? The strength of corporate profit growth and heightened deal activity in the first quarter of 2007 extended the market rally that began in 2006, but not before the market took a major hit in February. Rising fears about contagion spreading from the subprime lending market, relatively weak economic growth data and announcements from Chinese authorities about their intent to curb market speculation all converged to cause a major sell-off late in the month. Over the ensuing weeks, many of these concerns abated, and the markets rebounded. Investors bought stocks with conviction during the second quarter of 2007, as the major indexes advanced throughout the period.
The third quarter of 2007 was marked by a period of volatility in the market. Concerns about a severe deterioration in credit markets, worries about a potential recession, and the ultimate lowering of interest rates by the Federal Reserve ("Fed") all had a significant effect on stock prices. Although stocks in the middle of the period experienced major declines, a positive response to the Fed's interest rate cuts left most indexes up slightly for the quarter. Concerns about the impact of housing-related credit problems on the overall economy drove stocks lower in the fourth quarter of 2007. The threat of inflation, largely as a response to oil prices approaching $100 a barrel, renewed fears about the future health of consumer spending. The convergence of these factors detracted from returns for the fourth quarter.
What factors contributed to the Fund's performance? In the first quarter of 2007, overall stock selection was positive, with the top contributors coming from the consumer nondurables, materials, health care and basic industry/capital goods sectors. Conversely, weakness in the information technology, industrials and consumer services sectors hindered the Fund's performance. In the second quarter of 2007, a slightly negative impact from sector allocation was more than overcome by superior stock selection. Leading the way with strong performance were the Fund's holdings in the business services, consumer services and health care sectors.
In the third quarter of 2007, enhanced stock selection in the business services, consumer services and consumer nondurables sectors was more than able to offset some weakness in the health care and financials sectors. Hampering sector allocation were an underweight position in the health care sector and an overweight position in the consumer nondurables sector. Conversely, the portfolio benefited from an underweight position in the transportation sector. In the fourth quarter of 2007, consumer discretionary and industrial holdings proved beneficial for the Fund, while information technology and health care holdings detracted from performance, as did stock picks in the consumer nondurables, consumer services and energy sectors. An overweight position in consumer nondurables also hindered the Fund's performance, as this was one of the worst-performing sectors during the quarter (due to fears that housing price declines and related credit probl ems would dampen consumer spending). In the energy sector, stock selection detracted, based on the Fund's underweight position in energy exploration and production stocks, which performed significantly better than the oil service-related companies in which the Fund has traditionally invested.

MML Emerging Growth Fund – Portfolio Manager Report (Continued)
What is your outlook? As we enter 2008, worries remain as to whether the overall economy will be able to sustain the growth seen in 2007. Rising energy costs and falling housing prices are both detrimental to consumer spending. We have reduced our position in consumer-oriented names as a result of these concerns, while redeploying the proceeds largely to health care stocks, which are not as susceptible to these factors. There was a large disparity in performance between growth- and value-oriented stocks during 2007, which indicates that investors may still be willing to place their confidence in companies that have the ability to grow earnings and sales in the current environment. Consequently, we will continue to focus on companies with these characteristics.

Performance data quoted represents past performance; past performance is not predictive of future results. The investment return and principal value of shares of the Fund will fluctuate with market conditions so that shares of the Fund, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance of the Fund may be lower or higher than the performance quoted. Performance data current to the most recent month end may be obtained by accessing the website www.massmutual.com
Investors should note that the Fund is a professionally managed mutual fund, while the Russell 2000 Growth Index and the Russell 2000 Index are unmanaged, do not incur expenses, and cannot be purchased directly by investors. Investors should read the Fund's prospectus with regard to the Fund's investment objective, risks and charges and expenses in conjunction with these financial statements. The Fund's return reflects changes in the net asset value per share without the deduction of any product charges. The inclusion of these charges would have reduced the performance shown here.

Notes to Financial Statements
1. The Fund
MML Series Investment Fund ("MML Trust") is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as a no-load, open-end, management investment company. MML Trust is organized under the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts as a Massachusetts business trust pursuant to an Agreement and Declaration of Trust dated May 14, 1993, as amended. The following are six series of MML Trust (each individually referred to as a "Fund" or collectively as the "Funds"): MML Large Cap Value Fund ("Large Cap Value Fund"), MML Equity Index Fund ("Equity Index Fund"), MML Growth Equity Fund ("Growth Equity Fund"), MML NASDAQ-100® Fund (formerly MML OTC 100 Fund) ("NASDAQ-100 Fund"), MML Small Cap Growth Equity Fund ("Small Cap Growth Equity Fund") and MML Emerging Growth Fund ("Emerging Growth Fund").
The MML Trust was established by Massachusetts Mutual Life Insurance Company ("MassMutual") for the purpose of providing vehicles for the investment of assets of various separate investment accounts established by MassMutual and by life insurance companies which are subsidiaries of MassMutual. Shares of MML Trust are not offered to the general public. MassMutual, MML Bay State Life Insurance Company and C.M. Life Insurance Company are the record owners of all outstanding shares of the Funds.
The Equity Index Fund offers three classes of shares: Class I, Class II and Class III. Each share class invests in the same portfolio of assets. The principal difference among the classes is the level of service and administration fees borne by the classes. Because each class will have different fees and expenses, performance and share prices among the classes will vary. The classes of shares are offered to different types of investors, as outlined in the Fund's Prospectus.
2. Significant Accounting Policies
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed consistently by each Fund in the preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("generally accepted accounting principles"). The preparation of the financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Investment Valuation
Equity securities are valued on the basis of valuations furnished by a pricing service, authorized by the Board of Trustees ("Trustees"), which provides the last reported sale price for securities listed on a national securities exchange or the official closing price on the NASDAQ National Market System, or in the case of over-the-counter securities not so listed, the last reported bid price. Debt securities (other than short-term obligations) are valued on the basis of valuations furnished by a pricing service, authorized by the Trustees, which determines valuations taking into account appropriate factors such as institutional-size trading in similar groups of securities, yield, quality, coupon rate, maturity, type of issue, trading characteristics and other market data. Short-term securities are valued at either amortized cost or at original cost plus accrued interest, whichever approximates current market value. Shares of other funds are valued at their net asset value as reported on each business day. All other securities and other assets, including futures, options, swaps and debt securities for which the prices supplied by a pricing agent are deemed by the Trustees not to be representative of market values, including restricted securities and securities for which no market quotation is available, are valued at fair value in accordance with procedures approved by the Trustees. Securities are typically valued on the basis of valuations furnished by a primary pricing service or, if no such valuation is available, from a secondary pricing service. However, valuation methods approved by the Trustees which are intended to reflect fair value may be used when pricing service information is not readily available or when a security's value is believed to ha ve been materially affected by a significant event, such as a natural disaster, an economic event like a bankruptcy filing, or a substantial fluctuation in domestic or foreign markets, that has occurred after the close of the exchange or market on which the security is principally traded (for example, a foreign exchange or market). In such a case, a Fund's value for a security is likely to be different from the last quoted market price or pricing service information. Due to the subjective and variable nature of fair value pricing, it is possible that the value determined for a particular asset may be materially different from the value realized upon such asset's sale.
Portfolio securities traded on more than one national securities exchange are valued at the last price on the business day as of which such value is being determined at the close of the exchange representing

the principal market for such securities. All assets and liabilities expressed in foreign currencies are converted into U.S. dollars at the mean between the buying and selling rates of such currencies against U.S. dollars last quoted by any major bank. If such quotations are not available, the rate of exchange is determined in accordance with policies established by the Trustees.
Securities Lending
Each Fund may lend its securities to qualified brokers; however, securities lending cannot exceed 33% of the total assets of the Funds taken at current value. The loans are collateralized at all times with cash or securities with a market value at least equal to 100% of the market value of the securities on loan. The market value of the loaned securities is determined at the close of business of the Fund and any additional collateral is delivered to the Fund the next business day. As with other extensions of credit, the Funds may bear the risk of delay in recovery or even loss of rights in the collateral should the borrower of the securities fail financially. The Funds receive compensation for lending their securities. At December 31, 2007, the Funds l oaned securities having the following market values collateralized by cash, which was invested in short-term instruments in the following amounts:
Securities on Loan | Collateral | ||||||||||
Large Cap Value Fund | $ | 10,017,716 | $ | 10,336,366 | |||||||

For each Fund, the amount of securities on loan indicated in the table above may not correspond with the securities on loan identified on the Portfolio of Investments because securities with pending sales are in process of recall from the brokers.

Repurchase Agreements
Each Fund may enter into repurchase agreements with certain banks and broker/dealers whereby a Fund acquires a security for cash and obtains a simultaneous commitment from the seller to repurchase the security at an agreed upon price and date. The Funds, through their custodian, take possession of the securities collateralizing the repurchase agreement. The collateral is marked to market daily to ensure that the market value of the underlying assets remains sufficient to protect the Funds in the event of default by the seller. Collateral for certain tri-party repurchase agreements is held at the counterparty's custodian in a segregated account for the benefit of the Funds and the counterparty. In connection with transactions in repurchase agreements , if the seller defaults and the value of the collateral declines or if the seller enters insolvency proceedings, realization of collateral by the Funds may be delayed or limited.
Accounting for Investments
Investment transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Realized gains and losses on sales of investments (which may include proceeds received from litigation) and unrealized appreciation and depreciation of investments are computed by the specific identification cost method. Interest income,
60
Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)
adjusted for amortization of discounts and premiums on debt securities, is earned from the settlement date and is recorded on the accrual basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date.
Federal Income Tax
It is each Fund's intent to continue to comply with the provisions of subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), applicable to a regulated investment company. Under such provisions, the Funds will not be subject to federal income taxes on their ordinary income and net realized capital gains to the extent they are distributed or deemed to have been distributed to their shareholders. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required. Withholding taxes on foreign interest, dividends and capital gains have been provided for in accordance with the applicable country's tax rules and rates.
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders
Dividends from net investment income and distributions of any net realized capital gains of each Fund are declared and paid annually and at other times as may be required to satisfy tax or regulatory requirements. Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles. These differences are primarily due to investments in passive foreign investment companies and the deferral of wash sale losses. As a result, net investment income and net realized gain on investment transactions for a reporting period may differ significantly from distributions during such per iod.
Accordingly, the Funds may periodically make reclassifications among certain of their capital accounts without affecting the net asset value of the Funds.
During the year ended December 31, 2007, the following amounts were reclassified due to differences between book and tax accounting.
Paid-in Capital | Accumulated Net Realized Gain on Investments | Undistributed Net Investment Income | |||||||||||||
Large Cap Value Fund | $ | 11,410 | $ | (39,974 | ) | $ | 28,564 | ||||||||

Foreign Currency Translation
The books and records of the Funds are maintained in U.S. dollars. The market values of foreign currencies, foreign securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the mean of the buying and selling rates of such currencies against the U.S. dollar at the end of each business day. Purchases and sales of foreign securities and income and expense items are translated at the rates of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions. The Funds do not isolate that portion of the results of operations arising from changes in the exchange rates from that portion arising from changes in the market prices of securities. Net realized foreign currency gains and losses resul ting from changes in exchange rates include foreign currency gains and losses between trade date and settlement date on investment securities transactions, foreign currency transactions and the difference between the amounts of dividends recorded on the books of the Funds and the amount actually received.
Forward Foreign Currency Contracts
Each Fund may enter into forward foreign currency contracts in order to hedge the effect of currency movements of foreign denominated securities or obligations. A forward foreign currency contract is an agreement between two parties to buy and sell a currency at a set price on a future date. The market value of a forward foreign currency contract fluctuates with changes in foreign currency exchange and interest rates. Forward foreign currency contracts are marked to market daily and the change in their value is recorded by the Funds as an unrealized gain or loss. When a forward foreign currency contract is extinguished, through delivery or offset by entering into another forward foreign currency contract,
61
Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)
the Funds record a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value of the contract at the time it was extinguished or offset.
Forward foreign currency contracts involve a risk of loss from the potential inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts and from unanticipated movements in foreign currency values and interest rates.
The notional or contractual amounts of these instruments represent the investments the Funds have in particular classes of financial instruments and do not necessarily represent the amounts potentially subject to risk. The measurement of the risk associated with these instruments is meaningful only when all related and offsetting transactions and counterparty risk are considered.
At December 31, 2007, the Funds had no open forward foreign currency contracts.
Delayed Delivery Transactions, When Issued Securities, and Forward Commitments
Each Fund may purchase or sell securities on a "when issued" or delayed delivery or on a forward commitment basis. The Funds use forward commitments to manage interest rate exposure or as a temporary substitute for purchasing or selling particular debt securities. Payment and delivery may take place after the customary settlement period for that security. The price of the underlying securities and the date when the securities will be delivered and paid for are fixed at the time the transaction is negotiated. These securities are valued on the basis of valuations furnished by a pricing service, authorized by the Trustees, which determines valuations taking into account appropriate factors such as institutional-size trading in similar groups of securities, yield, quality, coupon rate, maturity, type of issue, trading characteristics and other market data. Securities for which no market quotation is available, are valued at fair value in accordance with procedures approved by the Trustees. The Funds record on a daily basis the unrealized appreciation (depreciation) based upon changes in the value of these securities. When a forward commitment contract is closed, the Funds record a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value of the contract at the time it was closed. Losses may arise due to changes in the value of the underlying securities or if the counterparty does not perform under the contract, or if the issuer does not issue the securities due to political, economic, or other factors. Funds monitor exposure to ensure counterparties are creditworthy and concentration of exposure is minimized.
Financial Futures Contracts
The Funds may purchase or sell financial futures contracts and options on such futures contracts for the purpose of hedging the market risk on existing securities or as a substitute for the purchase of securities. Futures contracts are contracts for delayed delivery of securities at a specific future date and at a specific price or yield. Upon entering into a contract, the Funds deposit and maintain as collateral such initial margin as required by the exchange on which the transaction is effected. Pursuant to the contract, the Fund agrees to receive from or pay to the broker an amount of cash equal to the daily fluctuation in value of the contract. Such receipts or payments are known as variation margin and are recorded by the Funds as unreali zed gains or losses. When the contract is closed, each Fund records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed. Futures contracts are valued at the settlement price established each day by the board of trade or exchange on which they are traded.
A summary of open futures contracts for the Equity Index Fund and the NASDAQ-100 Fund at December 31, 2007 was as follows:
Number of Contracts | Type | Expiration Date | Notional Contract Value | Net Unrealized Appreciation | |||||||||||||||

Allocation of Operating Activity
In maintaining the records for the Equity Index Fund, the income and expense accounts are allocated to each class of shares. Investment income, unrealized and realized gains or losses are prorated among the classes of shares based on the relative net assets of each. Expenses are allocated to each class of shares depending on the nature of the expenditures. Administration fees, which are directly attributable to a class of shares, are charged to that class' operations. Expenses of the Fund not directly attributable to the operations of any class of shares are prorated among the classes to which the expense relates based on the relative net assets of each.
Foreign Securities
The Funds may also invest in foreign securities, subject to certain percentage restrictions. Investing in securities of foreign companies and foreign governments involves special risks and considerations not typically associated with investing in securities of U.S. companies and the U.S. Government. These risks include revaluation of currencies and future adverse political and economic developments. Moreover, securities of many foreign companies and foreign governments and their markets may be less liquid and their prices more volatile than those of securities of comparable U.S. companies and the U.S. Government.
Restricted Securities
Certain securities are illiquid and restricted as to resale. They have been valued in good faith under procedures established by the Board of Trustees, taking into consideration such factors as the Board deems appropriate. The Funds generally bear the costs, if any, associated with the disposition of restricted securities. Aggregate cost and fair value of these restricted securities held at December 31, 2007 were as follows:
Aggregate Cost | Aggregate Value | Value as Percentage of Fund's Net Assets | |||||||||||||
Large Cap Value Fund | $ | 3,926,400 | $ | 3,824,150 | 1.3 | % | |||||||||
Emerging Growth Fund | 46,400 | 50,986 | 0.3 | % |

Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)
Net capital loss carryforwards may be applied against any net realized taxable gains in each succeeding year, or until their respective expiration dates, whichever occurs first.
Certain differences exist from the amounts reflected in the Statement of Changes in Net Assets primarily due to the character of short-term capital gains treated as ordinary income for tax purposes.
The Fund distinguishes between distributions on a tax basis and a financial reporting basis. Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that only distributions in excess of tax basis earnings and profits be reported in the financial statements as a return of capital.
The tax character of distributions paid during the year ended December 31, 2007 was as follows:

During the year ended December 31, 2007 the Funds adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 48 "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes" ("FIN 48") with the impact of such adoption being recognized on June 29, 2007 in accordance with guidance provided by the Securities and Exchange Commission. The adoption of FIN 48 did not have a material effect on the net asset value, financial condition or results of operations of the Funds as there was no liability required for the recognition for unrecognized tax benefits during the year, nor were there any such liabilities to be recorded to the beginning net asset value of the Funds.
To the extent required, the Funds recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as an income tax expense in the Statements of Operations. During the year ended December 31, 2007, the Funds did not incur any interest or penalties. The Funds are subject to examination by U.S. federal, state and foreign tax authorities for returns filed after 2004, 2005 and 2006, respectively.
7. Indemnifications
Under the Funds' organizational documents, current and former Trustees and Officers are provided with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the Funds, and shareholders are indemnified against personal liability for obligations of the Funds. In the normal course of business, the Funds may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The Funds' maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against the Funds. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.
8. New Accounting Pronouncements
In September 2006, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, "Fair Value Measurements" ("SFAS 157"), was issued and is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. SFAS 157 determines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Management is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of SFAS 157 will have on the Funds' financial statement disclosures.
9. Proxy Voting (Unaudited)
A description of the policies and procedures that each Fund's investment adviser and sub-advisers use to vote proxies relating to the Fund's portfolio securities is available, without charge, upon request, by calling 1-888-309-3539, and on the Securities and Exchange Commission's website at http://www.sec.gov.
Information regarding how the Funds voted proxies relating to portfolio securities during the most recent 12-month period ended June 30 is available, without charge, upon request, on the MassMutual website at http://www.massmutual.com and on the Securities and Exchange Commission's website at http://www.sec.gov.
10. Quarterly Reporting (Unaudited)
The Funds file their complete schedule of portfolio holdings with the SEC for the first and third quarters of each fiscal year on Form N-Q. The Funds' Forms N-Q are available on the SEC website at http://www.sec.gov. The Funds' Forms N-Q may be reviewed and copied at the SEC's Public Reference Room in Washington D.C. Information on the operation of the SEC's Public Reference Room may be obtained by calling 1-800-SEC-0330.
11. Trustees' Approval of Investment Advisory Contracts (Unaudited)
At a meeting held on May 9, 2007, the Board of Trustees of MML Trust (the "Board"), including the Trustees who are not "interested persons" (as such term is defined in the 1940 Act) of MML Trust, the Adviser or Sub-Advisers (the "Independent Trustees"), approved the termination of the existing Sub-Advisory Agreement ("Prior Sub-Advisory Agreement") with Grantham, Mayo, Van Otterloo & Co. LLC ("GMO") for the Growth Equity Fund and voted to approve a new Sub-Advisory Agreement ("New Sub-Advisory Agreement") with T. Rowe Price Associates, Inc. ("T. Rowe Price").
68
Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)
After arriving at a decision to replace GMO as a Sub-Adviser of the Growth Equity Fund, the Trustees determined that it would be appropriate to find a sub-adviser from the same peer group as GMO but one with a more consistent record of performance. After careful consideration, the Trustees determined that it would be appropriate to hire T. Rowe Price as the Fund's new Sub-Adviser.
In approving the New Sub-Advisory Agreement, the Board discussed with Management and considered a wide range of information about, among other things: (i) T. Rowe Price and its personnel with responsibilities for providing services to the Fund; (ii) the terms of the New Sub-Advisory Agreement; (iii) the scope and quality of services that T. Rowe Price will provide under the New Sub-Advisory Agreement; (iv) the historical investment performance track record of T. Rowe Price; (v) the fees payable to T. Rowe Price by the Adviser and the effect of such fees on the profitability to the Adviser; and (vi) T. Rowe Price's practices regarding the selection and compensation of brokers and dealers that execute portfolio transactions for the Fund, and the broker's and dealer's provision of brokerage and research services to T. Rowe Price.
Based on the foregoing, the Board concluded that (i) the Adviser's level of profitability from its relationship to the Fund was not excessive and that the sub-advisory fee amount under the New Sub-Advisory Agreement was fair and reasonable; (ii) overall, the Board was satisfied with the nature, extent and quality of services expected to be provided under the New Sub-Advisory Agreement; and (iii) the terms of the New Sub-Advisory Agreement are fair and reasonable with respect to the Fund and are in the best interest of the Fund's shareholders. After carefully considering the information summarized above, the Board, including the Independent Trustees voting separately, unanimously voted to approve the New Sub-Advisory Agreement.
Prior to the votes being taken to approve the New Sub-Advisory Agreement, the Independent Trustees met separately in executive session to discuss the appropriateness of the contract. In their deliberations with respect to these matters, the Independent Trustees were advised by their independent legal counsel. The Independent Trustees weighed the foregoing matters in light of the advice given to them by their independent legal counsel as to the law applicable to the review of investment advisory contracts. In arriving at a decision, the Board, including the Independent Trustees, did not identify any single matter as all-important or controlling. The foregoing summary does not detail all of the matters considered.
The New Sub-Advisory Agreement took effect on November 28, 2007.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Board of Trustees of MML Series Investment Fund and Shareholders of MML Large Cap Value Fund, MML Equity Index Fund, MML Growth Equity Fund, MML NASDAQ-100 Fund, MML Small Cap Growth Equity Fund and MML Emerging Growth Fund:
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the portfolios of investments, of MML Large Cap Value Fund, MML Equity Index Fund, MML Growth Equity Fund, MML NASDAQ-100 Fund, MML Small Cap Growth Equity Fund and MML Emerging Growth Fund (collectively the "Funds"), six of the funds comprising the MML Series Investment Fund (the "MML Trust"), as of December 31, 2007, and the related statements of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the MML Trust's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. The MML Trust is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits include consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion of the effectiveness of the MML Trust's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and sign ificant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures include confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2007, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers; where replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the Funds as of December 31, 2007, the results of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Other Information (Unaudited)
Fund Expenses December 31, 2007
Expense Examples | The following information is in regards to expenses for the six months ended December 31, 2007: As a shareholder of the Funds, you incur ongoing costs, including management fees and other Fund expenses. These examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Funds and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. These examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested for the six months ended December 31, 2007. | ||||||
Actual Expenses | The first four columns of the table below provide information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use this information, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number under the heading entitled "Operating Expenses Incurred" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. | ||||||
Hypothetical Example For Comparison Purposes | The last two columns of the table below provide information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund's actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund's actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only. Therefore, the last two columns of the table are useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. | ||||||

MML Series Investment Fund Report – President's Letter to Shareholders
To Our Shareholders
December 31, 2007
Richard J. Byrne
Given the numerous challenges the market presented to investors in 2007, we believe current market conditions emphasize the critical nature of maintaining a disciplined focus on a long-term investment strategy. Financial professionals recommend that investment strategies align with an individual's risk tolerance, financial goals and time horizon – employing diversification based on these factors. It is extremely difficult to predict future market conditions, so developing and maintaining an appropriate investment strategy is key during periods of market volatility.
2007's Challenging Environment
Equities and fixed-income investments both advanced in 2007, although stocks in the U.S. stumbled in the last few months of the year. For the 12-month period ended December 31, 2007, the Dow Jones Industrial AverageSM ("the Dow"), a benchmark of blue-chip stocks, returned 6.43% and the S&P 500® Index, a measure of U.S. large-cap stock performance, gained 5.49%. The leader in the U.S. equity markets was the NASDAQ Composite® Index ("NASDAQ"), a barometer of technology stock performance, which advanced 9.81%. In foreign developed equity markets, the Morgan Stanley Capital International Europe, Australasia, Far East ("MSCI® EAFE®") Index outperformed most of its U.S. counterparts with its 11.17% return. In the fixed-income arena, the Lehman Brothers® Aggregate Bond Index, a broad measure of the U.S. investment-grade bond market, advanced 6.97%.*
Stocks in the U.S. showed little change during the first quarter of 2007, despite a significant increase in volatility. The Dow declined slightly; conversely, the S&P 500 Index and the NASDAQ each finished with a small advance. The depreciating U.S. dollar continued to support the returns of foreign stocks – helping drive the strong performance of the MSCI EAFE Index. Investor concerns about the weak housing market and subprime lender problems caused higher-quality bond prices to rally and yields to ease. Bond prices move in the opposite direction of interest rates (or yields); when yields rise, the prices of existing bonds fall – and vice versa. In this environment, the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index posted a positive return for the first quarter of 2007.
Most U.S. stock indexes advanced in the second quarter of 2007, as stocks rode a wave of optimism over corporate earnings and overcame short periods of increased volatility associated with investor concerns about soft retail sales, rising interest rates, inflation, the housing market and subprime mortgages. Performance was mixed among fixed-income categories, but investors favored shorter-term bonds.
Most categories of domestic stocks finished the third quarter of 2007 higher, despite significant market volatility caused by the escalating subprime mortgage crisis. In August, the Federal Reserve ("Fed") cut the discount rate – the interest rate that regional Fed banks charge banks and other financial institutions when they borrow funds on a short-term basis – by 0.50%. After some negative movement in key economic indicators, the Fed lowered the closely watched target federal funds rate by 0.50% to 4.75%, simultaneously cutting the discount rate an additional 0.50% at its September 18 meeting. The federal funds rate is the interest rate that banks and other financial institutions charge each other for borrowing funds overnight. As a result, most broad-based U.S. stock indexes were trading near their all-time highs at the end of the quarter, and the MSCI EAFE Index advanced slightly. In the bond marketplace, growing concerns about a weakening economy triggered a decline in bond yields and boosted prices, helping the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index advance for the quarter.
The fourth quarter began on a positive note, with investors still savoring the third-quarter Fed-engineered interest rate cuts. The Fed's fourth-quarter interest rate reductions (which totaled an additional 0.50% each from both the federal funds and discount rates) failed to help investor confidence in the face of inflationary pressures, lackluster holiday retail sales and news detailing the ramifications of subprime exposure on large financial companies. U.S. equities traded lower, as ongoing weakness in the housing market, escalating subprime concerns and crude oil prices that approached $100 per barrel undermined investor confidence. Foreign stocks were not immune during this difficult period: The

MSCI EAFE Index fell 1.75% for the fourth quarter. In this environment, higher-quality bonds performed well amid growing concerns about a slowing economy and even a possible recession in the United States. In the end, the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index advanced 3.00% for the quarter.
A Look Back at 2007 as We Head into 2008
Above all, 2007 was a year in which the subprime mortgage situation developed from a concern into a full-blown crisis. There had been speculation for some time that many subprime mortgages, with their low teaser interest rates scheduled to reset at much higher levels, were a potential threat to borrowers and, by extension, those who invested in securities backed by those loans. The dangers of subprime borrowing didn't seem to grab investors' attention, however, until the situation got bad enough to damage the earnings of some of Wall Street's largest and strongest blue-chip financial companies – such as Bear Stearns, Citigroup, Merrill Lynch, Morgan Stanley and Wachovia. Fourth-quarter profit projections for S&P 500 companies as a group swung from an 11.5% gain at the beginning of October 2007 to a 6.1% drop as of December 31, 2007, mainly due to the deteriorating environment in the financial sector. This movement represented the la rgest quarterly shift since 1999, according to Reuters Estimates.
Outlook
While the fourth-quarter earnings outlook was scaled back considerably, consensus estimates for 2008 remained upbeat, particularly for the second half of the year. Those forecasts assume that the economy will avoid a recession, in part because of an accommodative Fed. While the Fed has demonstrated its willingness to lower interest rates in order to head off a recession, inflationary pressures could limit the central bank's choices going forward. We are cautious, but the truth is that we cannot predict when recessions will occur. It is also true that stocks can perform well during a slowdown as long as economic activity doesn't decelerate too much. Given the difficulty of predicting future market conditions, you may want to consider consulting your financial representative. He or she can work with you to develop a course of action that will help you stay invested for the long term, according to a plan that fits your risk tolerance, time hori zon and financial objectives.

MML Asset Allocation Fund – Portfolio Manager Report
What is the investment objective of the MML Asset Allocation Fund – and who is the Fund's sub-adviser?
The Fund seeks to provide high total return consistent with preservation of capital over the long term by investing its assets in both equity and fixed-income securities. The Fund's sub-adviser, Capital Guardian Trust Company (Capital Guardian) determines the asset allocation between equity and fixed-income securities. Up to 80% of the Fund's assets may be invested in equities; up to 60% in fixed income.
How did the Fund perform during the 12 months ended December 31, 2007?
The Fund returned 1.14%, lagging the 5.49% advance of the S&P 500® Index, a widely recognized, unmanaged index representative of common stocks of larger capitalized U.S. companies, and the 6.97% return of the Lehman Brothers® Aggregate Bond Index, an unmanaged index of fixed-rate investment-grade securities with at least one year to maturity, combining the Lehman Brothers U.S. Government/Credit Index and the Lehman Brothers Mortgage-Backed Securities Index. The Fund also underperformed the 6.53% return of the Lipper Balanced Fund Index, an unmanaged, equally weighted index of the 30 largest mutual funds within the Lipper Balanced Category.
What was the investment background during the period?
U.S. equities saw significant volatility in the first quarter of 2007 – gains in the first part of the period, then turbulence in late February and into March. Concerns about the subprime mortgage industry, earnings surprises and comments from the Federal Reserve ("Fed") all contributed to the volatility, though the S&P 500® Index ended the quarter with a slight gain. In the fixed-income markets, the Lehman Brothers® Aggregate Bond Index advanced 1.50% during the first quarter. Corporate bond spreads widened somewhat in the wake of the subprime situation, but remained relatively narrow at about 0.90% over Treasuries. In the second quarter of 2007, domestic equities rose sharply, powered by merger and acquisition activity and strong corporate earnings. Gains in April and May, however, were tempered by declines in June. Unlike stocks, bonds declined in the second quarter, amid fading market expectations of monetary easing, further unraveling of the subprime mortgage market and a tightening of credit by major banks and brokerage lenders. Corporate bonds and mortgage-backed securities lagged Treasuries.
In the third quarter of 2007, U.S. equities ended higher, despite a volatile period in which trouble in subprime mortgage lending spilled over into the broader credit and equity markets. Stocks tumbled in late July and mid-August, as a number of global hedge funds and other financial institutions reported losses from investments in structured bonds, credit holdings and quantitative strategies. However, rate cuts by the Fed helped the S&P 500 Index recover and end the quarter up slightly. Finally, in the fourth quarter of 2007, U.S. stocks stumbled on concerns over the effects of the credit crunch and declining corporate profits on overall economic growth. Financial lenders posted large losses and recessionary fears weighed on cyclical stocks, helping to send the S&P 500 Index down for the quarter.
What factors contributed to the Fund's performance?
For the first quarter of 2007, returns were positive on an absolute basis, although the portfolio underperformed its benchmark, the Lipper Balanced Fund Index. Financial stocks were the biggest relative drag on results. Specifically, the Fund's large overweight position in thrifts and mortgage companies, which suffered due to the subprime meltdown, and stock selection among the consumer finance companies hampered performance. The portfolio's lower-than-benchmark weightings in utilities and telecommunication companies also detracted. Turning to the second quarter of 2007, the portfolio's overweight position in equities helped results. The Fund also benefited from its underweight position and stock selection in the financials sector. Other contributing factors within financials included owning consumer finance companies that soared on buyout news, and holding an underweight position in diversified financials. Selection among health care companies, particularly in pharmaceuticals and biotechnology, detracted from comparative returns, as did holdings in the information technology sector. Within the bond portfolio, the Fund's overweight allocation to BBB rated securities and an underweight position in mortgage-backed securities supported relative results, while investments in financials issues detracted.
The portfolio benefited from stock selection and overweighting in information technology in the third quarter of 2007. Stock selection in health care, especially pharmaceuticals, was the biggest detractor from the Fund's results. The underweight position in energy also hurt returns, as did stock selection in
3
MML Asset Allocation Fund – Portfolio Manager Report (Continued)
the financials sector. Finally, in the fourth quarter of 2007, the portfolio was once again hampered by stock selection in the financials sector, particularly holdings among the thrifts and mortgage companies. Washington Mutual slid as the housing and credit markets deteriorated and after regulators began investigating how the company set values for mortgages sold to investors. Sallie Mae shares dropped after a $25 billion takeover collapsed. Stock selection in technology was negative, as SanDisk sank on disappointing earnings and weak flash memory prices. Stock selection and an underweight position in energy also weighed on results.
What is your outlook?
In our view, a U.S. economic slowdown is underway. While we do not yet know the full scope of the credit market crisis, we believe it will take time for all the ramifications to work through the financial system and the economy. This credit crunch is wider in scope and more complex than past credit crises. That said, certain indicators lead us to believe that the U.S. economy has shown some signs of slowing, but not of a serious breakdown. Employment and economic growth have deteriorated somewhat amid modest inflation. In addition, the Fed has shown that it is willing to act to ensure market stability. High oil prices may remain a challenge, but not, in our view, an insurmountable one. We are encouraged by the strength of exports, whic h have been helped by the U.S. dollar's decline. While the dollar continues to lose yield support, the possibility of declining real interest rates outside the U.S., in tandem with a reduced U.S. current account deficit and low valuation, could slow or stop the decline later in 2008.

MML Equity Income Fund – Portfolio Manager Report
What is the investment objective of the MML Equity Income Fund – and who is the Fund's sub-adviser?
The Fund seeks dividend income and long-term capital growth by investing in the common stocks of established companies. The Fund's sub-adviser is T. Rowe Price Associates, Inc. (T. Rowe Price).
How did the Fund perform during the 12 months ended December 31, 2007?
The Fund returned 3.13%, underperforming the 5.49% return of the S&P 500® Index, a widely recognized, unmanaged index representative of common stocks of larger capitalized U.S. companies. Conversely, the Fund outpaced the -0.17% return of the Russell 1000® Value Index, an unmanaged index representative of stocks with a greater-than-average value orientation among the stocks of the largest 1000 U.S. companies based on capitalization.
What was the investment background during the period?
Domestic stocks showed little change during the first quarter of 2007, despite a significant increase in volatility across the board. Although the Dow Jones Industrial AverageSM ("the Dow") notched a new closing high in February, the blue-chip benchmark declined slightly for the three months ended March 31, 2007. The S&P 500 Index finished with a small advance, as did the NASDAQ Composite® Index ("NASDAQ"), a barometer of technology stock performance. A depreciating U.S. dollar supported the returns of foreign stocks, helping the Morgan Stanley Capital International Europe, Australasia, Far East ("MSCI® EAFE®") Index outperform its U.S. counterp arts for the quarter. Most U.S. stock indexes advanced in the second quarter of 2007, as stocks rode a wave of optimism over corporate earnings and overcame short periods of increased volatility associated with investor concerns about soft retail sales, rising interest rates, inflation, the housing market and subprime mortgages.
Most categories of domestic stocks finished the third quarter of 2007 higher, despite significant market volatility caused by the escalating subprime mortgage crisis. In August, the Federal Reserve ("Fed") cut the discount rate – the interest rate that regional Fed banks charge banks and other financial institutions when they borrow funds on a short-term basis – by 0.50%. After some negative movement in key economic indicators, the Fed lowered the closely watched target federal funds rate by 0.50% to 4.75%, simultaneously cutting the discount rate an additional 0.50% at its September 18 meeting. The federal funds rate is the interest rate that banks and other financial institutions charge each other for borrowing funds overnight. As a result, most broad-based U.S. stock indexes were trading near their all-time highs at the end of the quarter, and the MSCI EAFE Index advanced slightly. The Fed's fourth-quarter interest rate reductio ns (which totaled an additional 0.50% each from both the federal funds and discount rates) failed to help investor confidence in the face of inflationary pressures, lackluster holiday retail sales and news detailing the ramifications of subprime exposure on large financial companies. U.S. equities traded lower, as ongoing weakness in the housing market, escalating subprime concerns and crude oil prices that approached $100 per barrel undermined investor confidence. Foreign stocks were not immune during this difficult period: The MSCI EAFE Index fell 1.75% for the fourth quarter.
What factors contributed to the Fund's performance?
For the 12-month period ended December 31, 2007, relative to the Russell 1000 Value Index, the Fund's performance was driven by stock selection in the financials sector, where the Fund's underweight position in the hard-hit banking and diversified financial services stocks sector proved particularly beneficial. For the year, Fund management's stock picks also drove relative results in the information technology sector, where the portfolio benefited from an overweight position in software giant Microsoft – which rallied on strong sales of its Vista operating system, Microsoft Office suite of products and Xbox game console. An overweight position in and stock selection among health care shares were furt her sources of relative strength for the portfolio.
At the other end of the spectrum, the Fund's underweight position in the utilities sector proved a hindrance, as these stocks, with their steady to improving fundamentals and credit quality, were attractive during 2007's economic and market uncertainty. Stock selection also detracted in the utilities sector – as did our choices in telecommunications and materials. In the materials sector,
7
MML Equity Income Fund – Portfolio Manager Report (Continued)
International Paper was the leading detractor because of a poor economic outlook and rising costs. In telecommunications, the Fund's underweight stake in the large diversified telecommunication firms, particularly AT&T and BellSouth (which benefited from their merger) hindered the Fund's performance. Additionally, overweight positions in Qwest Communications International and Sprint Nextel detracted from results. Qwest faces substantial investment costs to compete in the broadband arena, while Sprint continues to struggle to realize the benefits of its merger with Nextel.
What is your outlook?
Numerous forces will continue to influence the direction that the market takes throughout 2008. These include the price of oil; the subprime crisis and its impact on housing in particular, and the U.S. economy in general; Fed policy and inflation – to name just a few. We believe, however, that the Fund continues to be positioned to seek market opportunities as they emerge. Fund sub-adviser T. Rowe Price's Chairman and veteran value manager Brian Rogers suggests investors be patient through this period of market transition and adjustment: "We are correcting the excesses that we saw in the strong economic environment over the last five years." He points to the Fed's emerging focus on market stability and relative attractiveness of e quities versus fixed-income securities as positives. "And when you look at valuations," Rogers continued, "we see some great opportunities if you are willing to accept risk, making this arguably a great time to invest in some of the more troubled sectors of the market. And that's what our value funds will be doing. We look forward to better times ahead."

What is the investment objective of the MML Income & Growth Fund – and who is the Fund's sub-adviser?
The Fund seeks growth of capital by investing in common stocks of companies which the Fund's sub-adviser, American Century Investment Management, Inc. (American Century), believes offer prospects for capital growth. Income is a secondary objective.
How did the Fund perform during the 12 months ended December 31, 2007?
The Fund returned -0.77%, underperforming the 5.49% return of the S&P 500® Index, a widely recognized, unmanaged index representative of common stocks of larger capitalized U.S. companies.
What was the investment background during the period?
Stocks in the U.S. showed little change during the first quarter of 2007, despite a significant increase in volatility across the board.

Foreign stocks were not immune during this difficult period: The MSCI EAFE Index fell 1.75% for the fourth quarter.
What factors contributed to the Fund's performance?
In the first quarter of 2007, the portfolio's modest overweight in the financials sector, which was the worst-performing sector in the S&P 500 Index, hampered the Fund's performance. However, stock selection, particularly in the financials sector, was the primary hindrance for the Fund during this time frame. On the positive side, the Fund's stock picks were most successful in the industrials sector. The materials sector, which posted the best absolute returns in the portfolio, also enhanced results relative to the S&P 500 Index. In the second quarter of 2007, the top-contributing sectors were the most economically sensitive segments, led by materials and consumer discretionary stocks. The only sec tor of the portfolio to detract meaningfully from relative performance was health care, where an overweight allocation in health care services providers and stock selection among biotechnology stocks hindered the Fund's progress.
In the third quarter of 2007, the portfolio underperformed the benchmark in eight of 10 market sectors – most notably, financials and information technology. Stock selection among thrifts and mortgage finance companies, as well as capital markets firms, contributed the bulk of the

underperformance in the financials sector. The portfolio's overweight position in Countrywide Financial, the nation's largest mortgage lender, significantly hampered relative results – as the company lost 47% during the third quarter. In the information technology sector, stock selection among semiconductor manufacturers and IT services providers detracted the most from relative results. The only sector of the portfolio to add meaningful value to performance in the third quarter, compared with the S&P 500 Index, was telecommunication services. In the fourth quarter of 2007, the Fund had less-than-favorable stock selection in eight of 10 market sectors. The portfolio's health care holdings detracted the most from relative performance. The Fund's largest individual detractor was health care provider WellCare, which declined by 60% on concerns about fraud following a government raid on the company's headquarters in October. The portfol io's financial stocks also underperformed their counterparts in the S&P 500. In fact, five of the 10 strongest detractors came from this sector. During the fourth quarter, stock selection contributed positively to relative performance in just two sectors of the portfolio: telecommunication services and consumer discretionary. In telecommunications services, the most significant investment decision was not to invest in Sprint Nextel, which fell by 31% as operational missteps led to a decline in the company's subscriber base and market share. In the consumer discretionary sector, favorable stock choices in the household durables and hotels and restaurants industries contributed the most to relative performance.
What is your outlook?
As we enter 2008, investors face numerous challenges. Nevertheless, we are committed to adhere to our structured, disciplined investment approach for both stock selection and portfolio construction. Our investment strategy incorporates both growth and value measures (with a value tilt) in our stock selection process – in an effort to seek consistent long-term performance regardless of short-term market conditions.

MML Growth & Income Fund – Portfolio Manager Report
What is the investment objective of the MML Growth & Income Fund – and who is the Fund's sub-adviser?
The Fund seeks capital appreciation and income by investing at least 80% of its net assets, under normal market conditions, in equity securities and equity-related securities of companies domiciled in the U.S. with market capitalizations greater than $1 billion at the time of purchase. The Fund's sub-adviser is Capital Guardian Trust Company (Capital Guardian).
How did the Fund perform during the 12 months ended December 31, 2007?
The Fund returned -0.33%, underperforming the 5.49% return of the S&P 500® Index, a widely recognized, unmanaged index representative of common stocks of larger capitalized U.S. companies.
What was the investment background during the period?
U.S. equities saw significant volatility in the first quarter of 2007 – rising in the first part of the period, then experiencing turbulence in late February and into March. Concerns about the subprime mortgage industry, earnings surprises and comments from the Federal Reserve ("Fed") all contributed to the volatility, though the S&P 500 Index ended the quarter with a slight gain. In the fixed-income markets, the Lehman Brothers® Aggregate Bond Index advanced 1.50% during the first quarter. Corporate bond spreads widened somewhat in the wake of the subprime story, but remained relatively narrow at about 0.90% over Treasuries. Domestic equities rose sharply in the second quarter of 2007, with gains in April and May tempered by declines in June. The equity rally was powered by merger and acquisition activity and strong corporate earnings. Unlike stocks, bonds declined in the second quarter, amid fading market expectations of monetary easing, further unraveling of the subprime mortgage market and a tightening of credit by major banks and brokerage lenders. Corporate bonds and mortgage-backed securities lagged Treasuries.
U.S. equities ended higher for the third quarter of 2007, despite a volatile time frame in which trouble in subprime mortgage lending spilled over into the broader credit and equity markets. Stocks tumbled in late July and mid-August as a number of hedge funds and other financial institutions around the world reported losses related to the subprime crisis. A 0.50% interest rate cut by the Fed helped the equity markets recover in the short term, however. In the final quarter of 2007, U.S. stocks stumbled on concerns about the impact of the credit crunch and declining corporate profits on overall economic growth. Financial lenders posted large losses, recession fears weighed on cyclical stocks and domestic stocks ended the fourth quarter with a deficit.
What factors contributed to the Fund's performance?
The Fund's quarterly returns were positive on an absolute basis for the first three months of 2007, although the portfolio underperformed the S&P 500 Index. Financial stocks provided the biggest relative drag on results. Specifically, the portfolio's large overweight position in thrifts and mortgage companies, which suffered due to the subprime mortgage problems, and the Fund's stock selection among consumer finance companies were damaging. On the upside, the Fund's choices of consumer discretionary stocks were a driver of relative performance. Overall, the portfolio's information technology holdings contributed to performance, although its large exposure to the sector did not. In the second quarter of 2007, the portfolio benefited from its underweight position and stock selection in financials and having an underweight allocation to diversified financials. Stock selection and a lower-than-benchmark weighting in consumer staples also boosted returns. Despite being underweight in the sector, the Fund's choice of energy stocks also drove relative returns. Finally, stock selection among health care companies detracted from comparative returns, as did the Fund's stock selection in information technology.
In the third quarter of 2007, the portfolio benefited from stock selection and an overweight position in information technology. Stock selection in the consumer discretionary sector was positive, although the Fund's overweight position in that sector was not. The Fund's investments in the materials sector also added to relative returns. In the fourth quarter of 2007, the portfolio was hampered by stock selection in the financials sector – particularly, portfolio holdings among the thrifts and mortgage companies. Washington Mutual, for example, slid as the housing and credit markets deteriorated and
15
MML Growth & Income Fund – Portfolio Manager Report (Continued)
after regulators began investigating how the company set values for mortgages sold to investors. Sallie Mae shares dropped after a $25 billion takeover collapsed. Stock selection in the technology sector was a hindrance to Fund performance, as SanDisk sank on disappointing earnings and weak flash memory prices. The Fund's stock picks and its underweight position in energy also weighed on performance.
What is your outlook?
In our view, a U.S. economic slowdown is underway. While we do not yet know the full scope of the credit market crisis, we believe it will take time for its impact to work through the financial system and the economy. This credit crunch is wider in scope and more complex than past credit crises. That said, we will seek to position the portfolio to withstand the market challenges that we may face as 2008 progresses.

MML Blue Chip Growth Fund – Portfolio Manager Report
What is the investment objective of the MML Blue Chip Growth Fund – and who is the Fund's sub-adviser?
The Fund seeks long-term capital growth by normally investing at least 80% of its net assets in the common stocks of large and medium-sized blue chip growth companies. Income is a secondary objective. The Fund's sub-adviser is T. Rowe Price Associates, Inc. (T. Rowe Price).
How did the Fund perform during the 12 months ended December 31, 2007?
The Fund returned 12.67%, outpacing the 11.81% return of the Russell 1000® Growth Index, an unmanaged index consisting of those Russell 1000 securities (representing the 1000 largest U.S. companies based on market capitalization) with greater-than-average growth orientation that tend to exhibit higher price-to-book ratios and forecasted growth values than securities in the value universe. The Fund also outperformed the 5.49% return of the S&P 500® Index, a widely recognized, unmanaged index representative of common stocks of larger capitalized U.S. companies.
As we originally noted in the Fund's June 30, 2007 semi-annual report, going forward, the Fund's performance will be compared to the Russell 1000 Growth Index rather than the S&P 500 Index because the Russell 1000 Growth Index more closely represents the Fund's investment strategy. The Fund will retain the S&P 500 Index as its supplemental benchmark for performance comparisons.
What was the investment background during the period?
Domestic stocks showed little change during the first quarter of 2007, despite a significant increase in volatility across the board. Although the Dow Jones Industrial AverageSM ("the Dow") notched a new closing high in February, the blue-chip benchmark declined slightly for the three months ended March 31, 2007. The S&P 500 Index finished with a small advance, as did the NASDAQ Composite® Index ("NASDAQ"), a barometer of technology stock performance. A depreciating U.S. dollar supported the returns of foreign stocks, helping the Morgan Stanley Capital International Europe, Australasia, Far East ("MSCI® EAFE®") Index outperform its U.S. counterp arts for the quarter. Most U.S. stock indexes advanced in the second quarter of 2007, as stocks rode a wave of optimism over corporate earnings and overcame short periods of increased volatility associated with investor concerns about soft retail sales, rising interest rates, inflation, the housing market and subprime mortgages.
Most categories of domestic stocks finished the third quarter of 2007 higher, despite significant market volatility caused by the escalating subprime mortgage crisis. In August, the Federal Reserve ("Fed") cut the discount rate – the interest rate that regional Fed banks charge banks and other financial institutions when they borrow funds on a short-term basis – by 0.50%. After some negative movement in key economic indicators, the Fed lowered the closely watched target federal funds rate by 0.50% to 4.75%, simultaneously cutting the discount rate an additional 0.50% at its September 18 meeting. The federal funds rate is the interest rate that banks and other financial institutions charge each other for borrowing funds overnight. As a result, most broad-based U.S. stock indexes were trading near their all-time highs at the end of the quarter, and the MSCI EAFE Index advanced slightly. The Fed's fourth-quarter interest rate reductio ns (which totaled an additional 0.50% each from both the federal funds and discount rates) failed to help investor confidence in the face of inflationary pressures, lackluster holiday retail sales and news detailing the ramifications of subprime exposure on large financial companies. U.S. equities traded lower, as ongoing weakness in the housing market, escalating subprime concerns and crude oil prices that approached $100 per barrel undermined investor confidence. Foreign stocks were not immune during this difficult period: The MSCI EAFE Index fell 1.75% for the fourth quarter.
What factors contributed to the Fund's performance?
For the 12-month period ended December 31, 2007, stock selection and a beneficial underweight in the poor-performing consumer discretionary sector were the greatest drivers of the Fund's performance. The primary area of strength was the Internet and catalog retail industry, led by Amazon.com. An overweight position in the energy sector, in tandem with favorable stock selection, also contributed to the Fund's results for the year. An additional benefit was Fund management's stock selection in the telecommunication services sector, which helped offset a detrimental overweight in this sector. Stock picks in the information technology sector also helped drive the Fund's performance for the 12-month period.
19
MML Blue Chip Growth Fund – Portfolio Manager Report (Continued)
Hindering the portfolio's progress in 2007 was its overweight position and weak stock selection in the financials sector, which was devastated by the subprime mortgage crisis. In addition, not owning utilities stocks detracted from performance, as that sector became attractive to investors amid increasing economic uncertainty. Finally, the Fund's underweight position in the consumer staples sector had a negative effect on returns. In particular, not owning Coca-Cola or Altria Group, two impressive performers, detracted from portfolio results.
What is your outlook?
In the midst of a variety of investor concerns, from inflation, a possible recession and tighter credit conditions to the housing slump, subprime fallout and geopolitical events, we believe that prospects for corporate earnings growth and relatively stable interest rates will be favorable for the markets in 2008. Valuations are not as supportive as they were in 2007, which gives us caution. However, quality, consistent-growth companies continue to appear attractive in our view.

MML Large Cap Growth Fund – Portfolio Manager Report
What is the investment objective of the MML Large Cap Growth Fund – and who is the Fund's sub-adviser?
The Fund seeks long-term capital appreciation by normally investing at least 80% of its net assets in the common stocks and securities convertible into common stocks of companies which the Fund's sub-adviser believes offer prospects for long-term growth and which, at the time of purchase, have market capitalizations of at least approximately $10 billion. The Fund's sub-adviser is AllianceBernstein L.P. (AllianceBernstein).
How did the Fund perform during the 12 months ended December 31, 2007?
The Fund returned 13.57%, outpacing the 11.81% return of the Russell 1000® Growth Index, an unmanaged index consisting of those Russell 1000 securities (representing the 1000 largest U.S. companies based on market capitalization) with greater-than-average growth orientation that tend to exhibit higher price-to-book ratios and forecasted growth values than securities in the value universe.

Domestic stocks showed little change during the first quarter of 2007, despite a significant increase in volatility across the board. Although the Dow Jones Industrial AverageSM ("the Dow") notched a new closing high in February, the blue-chip benchmark declined slightly for the three months ended March 31, 2007. The S&P 500 Index finished with a small advance, as did the NASDAQ Composite® Index ("NASDAQ"), a barometer of technology stock performance, which barely managed to post a gain for the period. The U.S. stock market was inconsistent in the second quarter of 2007, with gains in April and May being partially offset by a pullback in June. Nevertheless, most major indexe s ended solidly ahead for the time frame. The market moves were driven largely by economic indicators that suggested U.S. Gross Domestic Product ("GDP") growth, which appeared to have bottomed out in the first quarter, would show renewed strength in the second. Initially, the market cheered the news of the economy's resilience, but continued signs of strength prompted fears that the Federal Reserve ("Fed") might resume its tightening instead of starting to cut interest rates as previously expected.
The third quarter of 2007 saw a rekindling of stock market volatility around the world, particularly in the U.S. Behind the market's uncertainty were spreading defaults in U.S. subprime mortgage loans, which initially affected smaller lenders focused on the subprime market. But concerns subsequently moved into the mainstream, as Countrywide Financial, the nation's largest independent mortgage lender, announced that July foreclosures had spiked – raising fears that a broad tightening of credit standards could trigger a market-wide credit crunch. In August, the Fed cut the discount rate – the interest rate that regional Fed banks charge banks and other financial institutions when they borrow funds on a short-term basis – by 0.50%. After some negative movement in key economic indicators, the Fed lowered the closely watched target federal funds rate by 0.50% to 4.75%, simultaneously cutting the discount rate an additio nal 0.50% at its September 18 meeting. The federal funds rate is the interest rate that banks and other financial institutions charge each other for borrowing funds overnight. As a result, most broad-based U.S. stock indexes were trading near their all-time highs at the end of the quarter. The Fed's fourth-quarter interest rate reductions (which totaled an additional 0.50% each from both the federal funds and discount rates) failed to help investor confidence in the face of inflationary pressures, lackluster holiday retail sales and news detailing the ongoing impact of subprime exposure on large financial companies. U.S. equities traded lower, as ongoing weakness in the housing market, escalating subprime concerns and crude oil prices that approached $100 per barrel undermined investor confidence.
What factors contributed to the Fund's performance?
During the first quarter of 2007, the Fund benefited from strong stock selection in the health care sector. On the other hand, stock selection within the consumer discretionary and consumer staples sectors was the largest detractor from performance. Sector allocation slightly hindered the Fund's returns in the first quarter. Specifically, the portfolio's overweight position in the financials sector, which was the worst performer, and a small underweight position in the strong-performing utilities
23
MML Large Cap Growth Fund – Portfolio Manager Report (Continued)
sector, hampered the Fund's progress. In the second quarter of 2007, weak stock selection in the information technology sector detracted from returns. On the positive side, stock selection within the materials and industrials sectors proved the largest contributor to second-quarter results. The portfolio also received a boost from its underweight allocation to consumer staples, which was one of the worst-performing sectors for the period.
During the third quarter of 2007, the Fund's performance was driven by strong stock selection across most sectors, but most significantly within the information technology and industrials sectors. Stock selection within the financials sector, in which the portfolio held an overweight position, was the largest detractor. During the fourth quarter of 2007, strong stock selection across many sectors, but particularly information technology and industrials, provided the Fund with strength. Stock selection within the materials sector, in which the Fund held an overweight position, also was additive. From a sector perspective, the portfolio's underweight position in the poorly performing consumer discretionary sector helped limit its negative impact, as this sector was hit by growing worries about a slowdown in consumer spending. During the final quarter of 2007, the largest detractor from performance was stock selection within the ene rgy and consumer discretionary sectors. Underweight positions in the consumer staples and utilities sectors also hindered the Fund's progress.
What is your outlook?
While we have seen recent indications of growth's leadership, the value that investors are placing on future growth remains at unusually low levels, suggesting there is still considerable room to outperform. We remain aggressively positioned to pursue this opportunity.

MML Concentrated Growth Fund – Portfolio Manager Report
What is the investment objective of the MML Concentrated Growth Fund – and who is the Fund's sub-adviser?
The Fund seeks long-term growth of capital by investing primarily in common stocks of companies that the Fund's sub-adviser, Legg Mason Capital Management, Inc. (Legg Mason), believes offer above-average growth potential and trade at a significant discount to the sub-adviser's assessment of their intrinsic value. Any income realized will be incidental to the Fund's objective.
How did the Fund perform during the 12 months ended December 31, 2007?
The Fund's Class I shares returned 15.04%, outpacing the 11.81% return of the Russell 1000® Growth Index, an unmanaged index consisting of those Russell 1000 securities (representing the 1000 largest U.S. companies based on market capitalization) with greater-than-average growth orientation that tend to exhibit higher price-to-book ratios and forecasted growth values than securities in the value universe. The Fund also outperformed the 5.49% return of the S&P 500® Index, a widely recognized, unmanaged index representative of common stocks of larger capitalized U.S. companies.
As we originally noted in the Fund's June 30, 2007 semi-annual report, going forward, the Fund's performance will be compared to the Russell 1000 Growth Index rather than the S&P 500 Index because the Russell 1000 Growth Index more closely represents the Fund's investment strategy.
What was the investment background during the period?
Stocks in the U.S. showed little change during the first quarter of 2007, despite a significant increase in volatility across the board. The Dow Jones Industrial AverageSM ("the Dow"), a benchmark of blue-chip stocks, declined slightly. Conversely, the S&P 500 Index and the NASDAQ Composite® Index ("NASDAQ"), a barometer of technology stocks, each finished with a small advance. Most U.S. stock indexes advanced in the second quarter of 2007, as stocks rode a wave of optimism over corporate earnings and overcame short periods of increased volatility associated with investor concerns about soft retail sales, rising interest rates, inflation, the housing market and subprime mort gages.
Most categories of domestic stocks finished the third quarter of 2007 higher, despite significant market volatility caused by the escalating subprime mortgage crisis. In August, the Federal Reserve ("Fed") cut the discount rate – the interest rate that regional Fed banks charge banks and other financial institutions when they borrow funds on a short-term basis – by 0.50%. After some negative movement in key economic indicators, the Fed lowered the closely watched target federal funds rate by 0.50% to 4.75%, simultaneously cutting the discount rate an additional 0.50% at its September 18 meeting. The federal funds rate is the interest rate that banks and other financial institutions charge each other for borrowing funds overnight. The Fed's fourth-quarter interest rate reductions (which totaled an additional 0.50% each from both the federal funds and discount rates) failed to help investor confidence in the face of infla tionary pressures, lackluster holiday retail sales and news detailing the ongoing impact of subprime exposure on large financial companies. U.S. equities traded lower, as ongoing weakness in the housing market, escalating subprime concerns and crude oil prices that approached $100 per barrel undermined investor confidence.
What factors contributed to the Fund's performance?
From a sector allocation perspective, performance during the first quarter of 2007 was hurt most by the Fund's absence from other-energy (energy related businesses other than those included in the integrated oil sector) and materials/processing, which were the two best-performing sectors in the market. The portfolio's significant overweight position in financial services also hampered results, as investors worried that subprime mortgage lending weakness might morph into a contagion affecting the broader credit spectrum. On the upside, the Fund's overweight position in the strong consumer discretionary sector and underweight position in weak technology stocks bolstered returns. In the second quarter of 2007 , the Fund's sector allocations once again played a major role in its performance. For example, the portfolio's high weighting in the weak-performing consumer discretionary sector detracted from results – although strong stock selection in that same sector was a primary factor in the portfolio's outperformance during the period. Conversely, the Fund's absence from the strong-performing other-energy sector and an underweight position in technology hurt relative results.
27
MML Concentrated Growth Fund – Portfolio Manager Report (Continued)
During the third quarter of 2007, from a sector allocation perspective, the portfolio's high weighting in the weak-performing consumer discretionary sector detracted from results. What is noteworthy about this is the fact that strong stock selection in consumer discretionary, combined with the portfolio's overweight position in that group, was the primary reason for the portfolio's overall outperformance during the third quarter. An overweight position in the weak financial services sector also hurt relative results. Once again, in the fourth quarter of 2007, the portfolio's large weighting in the weak consumer discretionary sector hampered the Fund's progress. Performance was also pressured by the Fund's underweight positions in consumer staples and other energy, which both performed well. On the upside, the portfolio's overweight position in materials and processing, the top-performing sector for the period, helped to of fset negative effects elsewhere.
What is your outlook?
While we continue to monitor issues in the credit and housing markets and the economy overall, we believe the stock market looks very attractive from a valuation standpoint, as well as compared to the bond market. Even allowing for the possibility that consensus earnings estimates may be overly optimistic, we still see the potential for stocks to outperform their fixed-income counterparts in 2008.

MML Mid Cap Value Fund – Portfolio Manager Report
What is the investment objective of the MML Mid Cap Value Fund – and who is the Fund's sub-adviser?
The Fund seeks long-term capital growth. Income is a secondary objective. The Fund's sub-adviser is American Century Investment Management, Inc. (American Century).
How did the Fund perform during the 12 months ended December 31, 2007?
The Fund returned -2.32%, trailing the -1.42% return of Russell Midcap® Value Index, an unmanaged index that measures the performance of those companies in the Russell Midcap Index with lower price-to-book ratios and lower forecasted growth values. The Fund also underperformed the 5.60% return of the Russell Midcap Index, an unmanaged index that measures the performance of the 800 smallest companies in the Russell 1000® Index, a capitalization-weighted index of the 1,000 U.S. companies with the largest market capitalization.
As we originally noted in the Fund's June 30, 2007 semi-annual report, going forward, the Fund's performance will be compared to the Russell Midcap Value Index rather than the Russell Midcap Index because the Russell Midcap Value Index more closely represents the Fund's investment strategy.
What was the investment background during the period?
Stocks in the U.S. showed little change during the first quarter of 2007, despite a significant increase in volatility. The Dow Jones Industrial AverageSM ("the Dow"), a benchmark of blue-chip stocks, declined slightly. Conversely, the S&P 500® Index, a measure of U.S. large-cap stock performance, and the NASDAQ Composite® Index ("NASDAQ"), a barometer of technology stock performance, each finished with a small advance. The depreciating U.S. dollar continued to support the returns of foreign stocks – helping drive the strong performance of the Morgan Stanley Capital International Europe, Australasia, Far East ("MSCI® EAFE®") Index. Most U.S. stock indexes advanced in the second quarter of 2007, as stocks rode a wave of optimism over corporate earnings and overcame short periods of increased volatility associated with investor concerns about soft retail sales, rising interest rates, inflation, the housing market and subprime mortgages.
Most categories of domestic stocks finished the third quarter of 2007 higher, despite significant market volatility caused by the escalating subprime mortgage crisis. In August, the Federal Reserve ("Fed") cut the discount rate – the interest rate that regional Fed banks charge banks and other financial institutions when they borrow funds on a short-term basis – by 0.50%. After some negative movement in key economic indicators, the Fed lowered the closely watched target federal funds rate by 0.50% to 4.75%, simultaneously cutting the discount rate an additional 0.50% at its September 18 meeting. The federal funds rate is the interest rate that banks and other financial institutions charge each other for borrowing funds overnight. As a result, most broad-based U.S. stock indexes were trading near their all-time highs at the end of the quarter, and the MSCI EAFE Index advanced slightly. The fourth quarter began on a posit ive note, with investors still savoring the third-quarter Fed-engineered interest rate cuts. The Fed's fourth-quarter interest rate reductions (which totaled an additional 0.50% each from both the federal funds and discount rates) failed to help investor confidence in the face of inflationary pressures, lackluster holiday retail sales and news detailing the ongoing impact of subprime exposure on large financial companies. U.S. equities traded lower, as ongoing weakness in the housing market, escalating subprime concerns and crude oil prices that approached $100 per barrel undermined investor confidence. Foreign stocks were not immune during this difficult period: The MSCI EAFE Index fell 1.75% for the fourth quarter.
What factors contributed to the Fund's performance?
During the first quarter of 2007, effective stock selection in the consumer discretionary sector provided some of the best relative returns for the Fund compared to the Russell Midcap Value Index. The information technology sector was another source of relative strength for the Fund. On the downside, the portfolio's underweight position in the utilities sector was a significant drag on performance. In addition, the financials sector detracted from results on both an absolute and a relative basis. Turning to the second quarter of 2007, the Fund's returns benefited from positive contributions on an absolute basis from all but one sector. Favorable stock selection and an underweight position in the struggling financials sector contributed to performance, while the Fund's positions in consumer
31
MML Mid Cap Value Fund – Portfolio Manager Report (Continued)
staples and telecommunications also boosted results. Meanwhile, portfolio holdings in the materials sector detracted.
Stock selection in the consumer staples and utilities sectors added positively to both absolute and relative performance in the third quarter of 2007. Conversely, the portfolio's allocation to the financials sector detracted on both an absolute and relative basis, as a significant overweight position in thrifts proved detrimental to the Fund's results. In addition, the portfolio's mix of insurance stocks was also a drag on results. Turning to the fourth quarter of 2007, the Fund's information technology holdings contributed the most to relative performance. An overweight position in consumer staples also benefited the Fund because, during difficult economic times, consumer staples stocks are regarded as sound, defensive investments. The portfolio's allocation to makers of food and household products was particularly advantageous. On the downside, despite the Fund's underweight position in the financials sector, portfolio holdings in that sector were a drag on results. Finally, the Fund's underweight position in energy – the Russell Midcap Value Index's best performing sector – hurt relative results as 2007 came to a close. Because of valuations, the portfolio did not own certain energy companies, such as Hess and Noble Energy, both of which boosted the Russell Midcap Value Index's performance.
What is your outlook?
The Fund's objective is to help investors achieve long-term capital growth by investing in medium-sized companies. Regardless of market conditions, the portfolio's management team remains committed to its discipline of seeking mid-cap companies whose shares appear to be undervalued for reasons unrelated to the firms' fundamental or financial health.

MML Mid Cap Growth Fund – Portfolio Manager Report
What is the investment objective of the MML Mid Cap Growth Fund – and who is the Fund's sub-adviser?
The Fund seeks long-term capital appreciation by investing, under normal conditions, at least 80% of its net assets in a broadly diversified portfolio of common stocks of mid-cap companies whose earnings the Fund's sub-adviser, T. Rowe Price Associates, Inc. (T. Rowe Price), expects to grow at a faster rate than the average company.
How did the Fund perform during the 12 months ended December 31, 2007?
The Fund returned 16.89%, exceeding the 11.43% return of the Russell Midcap® Growth Index, a widely recognized, unmanaged index which measures the performance of those Russell Midcap companies with higher price-to-book ratios and higher forecasted growth values. The Fund's 16.89% return also outperformed the 7.96% return of the S&P MidCap 400® Index, a widely recognized, unmanaged index representative of common stocks of mid-capitalized U.S. companies.
As we originally noted in the Fund's June 30, 2007 semi-annual report, going forward, the Fund's performance will be compared to the Russell Midcap Growth Index rather than the S&P MidCap 400 Index because the Russell Midcap Growth Index more closely represents the Fund's investment strategy. The Fund will retain the S&P MidCap 400 Index as its supplemental benchmark for performance comparisons.
What was the investment background during the period?
Domestic stocks showed little change during the first quarter of 2007, despite a significant increase in volatility. Although the Dow Jones Industrial AverageSM ("the Dow") notched a new closing high in February, the blue-chip benchmark declined slightly for the three months ended March 31, 2007. The S&P 500 Index finished with a small advance, as did the NASDAQ Composite® Index ("NASDAQ"), a barometer of technology stock performance. A depreciating U.S. dollar supported the returns of foreign stocks, helping the Morgan Stanley Capital International Europe, Australasia, Far East ("MSCI® EAFE®") Index outperform its U.S. counterparts for the quar ter. Most U.S. stock indexes advanced in the second quarter of 2007, as stocks rode a wave of optimism over corporate earnings and overcame short periods of increased volatility associated with investor concerns about soft retail sales, rising interest rates, inflation, the housing market and subprime mortgages.
Most categories of domestic stocks finished the third quarter of 2007 higher, despite significant market volatility caused by the escalating subprime mortgage crisis. In August, the Federal Reserve ("Fed") cut the discount rate – the interest rate that regional Fed banks charge banks and other financial institutions when they borrow funds on a short-term basis – by 0.50%. After some negative movement in key economic indicators, the Fed lowered the closely watched target federal funds rate by 0.50% to 4.75%, simultaneously cutting the discount rate an additional 0.50% at its September 18 meeting. The federal funds rate is the interest rate that banks and other financial institutions charge each other for borrowing funds overnight. As a result, most broad-based U.S. stock indexes were trading near their all-time highs at the end of the quarter, and the MSCI EAFE Index advanced slightly. The Fed's fourth-quarter interest rate reductio ns (which totaled an additional 0.50% each from both the federal funds and discount rates) failed to help investor confidence in the face of inflationary pressures, lackluster holiday retail sales and news detailing the ramifications of subprime exposure on large financial companies. U.S. equities traded lower, as ongoing weakness in the housing market, escalating subprime concerns and crude oil prices that approached $100 per barrel undermined investor confidence. Foreign stocks were not immune during this difficult period: The MSCI EAFE Index fell 1.75% for the fourth quarter.
What factors contributed to the Fund's performance?
The financials sector was the greatest contributor to the Fund's performance during the 12-month period ended December 31, 2007, on the strength of stock selection and a significant underweight position. Stock selection in the insurance industry and an overweight in capital markets also contributed. Additionally, the portfolio had no exposure to the thrifts and mortgage finance industry, minimizing the impact of the housing crisis on the Fund's returns. The information technology sector was the next greatest contributor to performance. Strong stock selection led the way, although this was partially offset by a detrimental overweight. Stock selection in the consumer discretionary sector contributed to the F und's returns, but the portfolio's overweight position in this weak-performing
35
MML Mid Cap Growth Fund – Portfolio Manager Report (Continued)
sector slightly offset those results. Portfolio holdings in Amazon.com, Chipotle Mexican Grill, and Discovery Holdings proved to be especially productive.
The primary drag on performance in 2007 was weak stock selection in the industrials and business services sectors. The portfolio's underweight position in materials, the second-highest performing sector, also hampered performance, although this was slightly offset by stock selection.
What is your outlook?
Mid-cap growth stocks have enjoyed excellent performance over the last few years, driven by merger/acquisition and leveraged buyout activity. Recently, however, weak performance in this market segment has proven that trend to be unsustainable.
We believe that the Fund's steady strategy and long-term focus can help to provide much better capital preservation during challenging market environments than the more aggressive investment strategies that have gained popularity in recent years.

MML Small Cap Value Fund – Portfolio Manager Report
What is the investment objective of the MML Small Cap Value Fund – and who is the Fund's sub-adviser?
The Fund seeks long-term total return by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets in a broadly diversified portfolio of equity investments in small-cap U.S. issuers, including foreign issuers that are traded in the United States. The Fund's sub-advisers are Goldman Sachs Asset Management, L.P. (GSAM) and AllianceBernstein L.P. (AllianceBernstein). Each sub-adviser is responsible for a portion of the portfolio, but not necessarily equal weighted.
How did the Fund perform during the 12 months ended December 31, 2007?
The Fund returned -18.31%, underperforming the -9.78% return of the Russell 2000® Value Index, a widely recognized, unmanaged index that measures the performance of those Russell 2000 Index Companies with lower price-to-book ratios and lower forecasted growth rates.
What was the investment background during the period?
Stocks in the U.S. showed little change during the first quarter of 2007, despite a significant increase in volatility. The Dow Jones Industrial AverageSM ("the Dow"), a benchmark of blue-chip stocks, declined slightly. Conversely, the S&P 500® Index, a measure of U.S. large-cap stock performance, and the NASDAQ Composite® Index ("NASDAQ"), a barometer of technology stock performance, each finished with a small advance. The depreciating U.S. dollar continued to support the returns of foreign stocks – helping drive the strong performance of the Morgan Stanley Capital International Europe, Australasia, Far East ("MSCI® EAFE®") Index. Most U.S. stock indexes advanced in the second quarter of 2007, as stocks rode a wave of optimism over corporate earnings and overcame short periods of increased volatility associated with investor concerns about soft retail sales, rising interest rates, inflation, the housing market and subprime mortgages.
Most categories of domestic stocks finished the third quarter of 2007 higher, despite significant market volatility caused by the escalating subprime mortgage crisis. In August, the Federal Reserve ("Fed") cut the discount rate – the interest rate that regional Fed banks charge banks and other financial institutions when they borrow funds on a short-term basis – by 0.50%. After some negative movement in key economic indicators, the Fed lowered the closely watched target federal funds rate by 0.50% to 4.75%, simultaneously cutting the discount rate an additional 0.50% at its September 18 meeting. The federal funds rate is the interest rate that banks and other financial institutions charge each other for borrowing funds overnight. As a result, most broad-based U.S. stock indexes were trading near their all-time highs at the end of the quarter, and the MSCI EAFE Index advanced slightly. The fourth quarter began on a posit ive note, with investors still savoring the third-quarter Fed-engineered interest rate cuts. The Fed's fourth-quarter interest rate reductions (which totaled an additional 0.50% each from both the federal funds and discount rates) failed to help investor confidence in the face of inflationary pressures, lackluster holiday retail sales and news detailing the ongoing impact of subprime exposure on large financial companies. U.S. equities traded lower, as ongoing weakness in the housing market, escalating subprime concerns and crude oil prices that approached $100 per barrel undermined investor confidence. Foreign stocks were not immune during this difficult period: The MSCI EAFE Index fell 1.75% for the fourth quarter.
What factors contributed to the Fund's performance?
In the first quarter of 2007, from a sector perspective, the Fund's stock selection within the information technology, consumer discretionary and health care sectors detracted from its performance. On the other hand, the Fund's best results came from its industrials and consumer staples holdings. With respect to investment themes, the Fund's underperformance relative to the Russell 2000 Value Index was largely the result of a drawdown in the momentum factor in the first few weeks of February – the period leading up to the market decline at the end of that month. Turning to the second quarter of 2007, overall stock selection was less than favorable. The Fund's holdings in the information technology, fi nancials and industrials sectors were the least successful relative to their peers in the Russell 2000 Value Index. On the upside, stock picks in the materials and energy sectors contributed the most to the Fund's relative performance. Returns for the investment themes were mixed for this period. Momentum and profitability were the biggest detractors from relative returns. On the upside, the valuation and analyst sentiment themes contributed the most to relative performance.

MML Small Cap Value Fund – Portfolio Manager Report (Continued)
In the third quarter of 2007, returns attributable to the Fund's investment themes were mixed, but negative overall. Management impact and earnings quality were the biggest detractors from relative returns for the quarter. On the upside, momentum, valuation and profitability contributed the most to relative performance. Among sectors, stock selection hampered the Fund's performance in the third quarter, as its holdings in the financials, energy and industrials sectors were the least successful in terms of relative performance. On the upside, stock picks in the materials, utilities and consumer discretionary sectors contributed positively to performance against the Russell 2000 Value Index. In the final three months of 2007, returns of the Fund's investment themes were once again negative. Profitability was the biggest detractor from relative returns, followed by management impact and valuation. On the upside, momentum, earnings q uality and analyst sentiment contributed positively to relative performance. From a sector perspective, stock selection hindered the Fund's progress as 2007 wound down. Its holdings in the financials, health care and information technology sectors were the least successful relative to their peers in the Russell 2000 Value Index. On the upside, Fund management's stock picks in the materials sector contributed the most to relative performance.
What is your outlook?
Looking ahead, we believe that cheaper stocks have the potential to outpace more expensive ones and good momentum stocks should do better than poor momentum stocks. We also prefer companies identified by fundamental research analysts as becoming more positive – as well as firms that are profitable, have sustainable earnings and use their capital to enhance shareholder value. As such, we expect to remain fully invested in the near term.

MML Small Cap Index Fund – Portfolio Manager Report
What is the investment objective of the MML Small Cap Index Fund – and who is the Fund's sub-adviser?
The Fund seeks to provide investment results approximating (before fees and expenses) the aggregate price and dividend performance of the securities in the Standard & Poor's SmallCap 600® Index (S&P SmallCap 600 Index). The Fund's sub-adviser is Northern Trust Investments, N.A. (Northern).
How did the Fund perform during the 12 months ended December 31, 2007?
The Fund returned -0.57%, trailing the -0.30% return of the S&P SmallCap 600 Index, a widely recognized, capitalization-weighted unmanaged index of common stocks chosen by Standard & Poor's for industry group representation, market size, liquidity, adequate float size and other trading requirements. The Index tracks the performance of the small-cap portion of the U.S. equity market. As of February 28, 2007, the approximate market capitalization range of companies included in the S&P SmallCap 600 Index was between $61 million and $3.7 billion.
What was the investment background during the period?
Overcoming a dip in the market in February, U.S. equity markets posted positive numbers for the first half of 2007, despite negative pressures surrounding subprime loan defaults, rising interest rates and geopolitical conflicts in the Middle East and Asia. The S&P 500® Index closed at an all-time high in May. Ongoing merger and acquisition activity, takeover announcements and strong earnings reports also contributed to the markets' performance in the first quarter of 2007. On January 18, 2007, crude oil prices dropped to $51 a barrel on higher-than-expected supply news. This retreat was short-lived, as oil closed higher at the end of the second quarter, at around $70 per barrel. The Fe deral Reserve ("Fed") kept the federal funds rate unchanged at 5.25% during the second quarter of 2007.
Most categories of domestic stocks finished the third quarter of 2007 higher, despite significant market volatility caused by the escalating subprime mortgage crisis. In August, the Fed cut the discount rate – the interest rate that regional Fed banks charge banks and other financial institutions when they borrow funds on a short-term basis – by 0.50%. After some negative movement in key economic indicators, the Fed lowered the closely watched target federal funds rate by 0.50% to 4.75%, simultaneously cutting the discount rate an additional 0.50% at its September 18 meeting. The federal funds rate is the interest rate that banks and other financial institutions charge each other for borrowing funds overnight. As a result, most broad-based U.S. stock indexes were trading near their all-time highs at the end of the quarter. The fourth quarter began on a positive note, with investors still savoring the third-quarter Fed-engineered in terest rate cuts. The Fed's fourth-quarter interest rate reductions (which totaled an additional 0.50% each from both the federal funds and discount rates) failed to bolster investor confidence in the face of inflationary pressures, lackluster holiday retail sales and news detailing the ongoing impact of subprime exposure on large financial companies. U.S. equities traded lower, as ongoing weakness in the housing market, escalating subprime concerns and crude oil prices that approached $100 per barrel undermined investor confidence. In this environment, the performance of small-cap stocks lagged that of their mid-cap and large-cap counterparts.
What factors contributed to the Fund's performance?
In the first quarter of 2007, all but three of the Fund's sectors posted positive performance. The strongest-performing sectors were materials, health care and energy. The portfolio's largest sector position, industrials, advanced during this time frame. The worst-performing sector, financials, posted a negative return for the period. Turning to the second quarter of 2007, all but two sectors posted positive performance. The strongest-performing sectors were industrials, energy and information technology. Industrials was also the largest sector position, followed by information technology. The two worst-performing sectors for the second quarter were financials and utilities.

MML Small Cap Index Fund – Portfolio Manager Report (Continued)
In the third quarter of 2007, four out of the 10 sectors the Fund invests in posted positive performance. The best-performing sectors were health care and information technology. The worst-performing sectors, on the other hand, were consumer discretionary, financials and industrials. For the fourth quarter, three out of the 10 sectors posted positive performance. The best performing sectors were energy and health care. The worst performing sectors included consumer discretionary, financials and industrials, with consumer discretionary and financials providing the greatest drag on overall portfolio performance.
For full-year 2007, the energy sector was the leading contributor to the Fund's overall performance – followed by health care. On the downside, the financials and consumer discretionary sectors were the major detractors for the year, with both being affected by the subprime fallout and housing slowdown.
What is your outlook?
As we enter 2008, investors face a wide array of challenges. These include the price of oil, the subprime crisis, Fed policy and inflation, to name just a few. Despite these uncertainties, we believe that the Fund continues to be positioned to pursue returns that are consistent with those of the S&P SmallCap 600 Index.

MML Global Fund – Portfolio Manager Report
What is the investment objective of the MML Global Fund – and who is the Fund's sub-adviser?
The Fund seeks long-term capital appreciation by mainly investing in the securities of U.S. and foreign companies, including companies in developed and emerging industrialized markets. The Fund's sub-adviser is Neuberger Berman Management, Inc. (Neuberger Berman).
How did the Fund perform during the 12 months ended December 31, 2007?
The Fund's Class I shares returned 3.57%, lagging the 9.04% return of the Morgan Stanley Capital International, Inc. ("MSCI®") World Index, an unmanaged index of issuers listed on the stock exchanges of 20 foreign countries and the U.S.
What was the investment background during the period?
Despite a tumultuous environment in the first quarter of 2007, most broad U.S. stock market indexes managed to turn in modest gains. International stocks continued to outpace U.S. markets in the first quarter. During this time frame, the markets in Singapore, Australia and Finland led the way – while Ireland, Hong Kong and New Zealand were among the laggards. The U.S. stock market as a whole rose substantially during second quarter of 2007, due to better-than-expected earnings releases, corporate mergers and private equity deals. The market pulled back slightly in June, however, as Treasury yields rose and subprime mortgage issues resurfaced, but performance for the quarter remained positive overall . International stocks also advanced in the second quarter, as the Nordic countries and the Pacific (excluding Japan) led the developed markets. Japan was the only developed market to post a decline.
The stock market in the U.S. endured a tumultuous third quarter in which the collapse of the mortgage and credit markets caused a broad sell-off in financial stocks. The market recovered its losses by quarter-end, however, as indications of health in the rest of the economy caused recession fears to abate, and the Federal Reserve ("Fed") cut the federal funds rate an aggressive 0.50% at the end of the period. The federal funds rate is the interest rate that banks and financial institutions charge each other for borrowing funds overnight. Markets throughout the world generally managed to finish in positive territory for the third quarter of 2007, with U.S. and international markets roughly in line after a number of central banks around the globe provided new liquidity to the financial system. In the fourth quarter of 2007, the aftershocks of the credit market upheaval in the third quarter resonated throughout U.S. equity markets a nd resulted in their delivery of dismal returns. Several Fed actions and various liquidity infusions by private equity and foreign entities during the period gave, at best, short-term sustenance to financial companies. Credit remained tight. As additional asset writedowns – the reduction of the book value of an asset because it is overvalued compared to the market value – within the financials sector cropped up and housing market deterioration persisted, the stock market continued its downward drift. The turmoil in the credit market also produced extensive volatility among global equities in the second half of 2007. International stocks declined for the fourth quarter of 2007, even as the Fed and international central banks coordinated policy to provide new liquidity to the financial system.
What factors contributed to the Fund's performance?
The U.S. equity component of the portfolio generated relatively flat returns for the first quarter of 2007. The portfolio received its largest positive contribution from its consumer staples and utilities holdings. Weakness within the financials sector was the largest single detractor from performance, as problems within the subprime mortgage market garnered headlines. Stock selection and overweight positions in Germany and Brazil contributed positively to the performance of the international component of the portfolio. On the other hand, stocks in the UK put pressure on the Fund's progress, as did certain South Korean holdings. From a sector perspective, strong international stock selection in materials, health care and information technology contributed to returns. Conversely, an overweight position in energy and stock selection in consumer staples, telecommunication services and consumer discretionary had a negative impact. In the second quarter of 2007, the domestic portion of the Fund's portfolio received the largest contribution to total return from its energy and information technology holdings. The Fund's holdings in the financials sector generated modestly positive returns, but the portfolio's substantial allocation to this lackluster segment hampered the Fund's relative performance. The international portion of the
47
MML Global Fund – Portfolio Manager Report (Continued)
Fund benefited from strong stock selection in telecommunications, consumer staples and materials, as well as an overweight position in energy. On a geographic basis, stock selection in Germany, France and Brazil helped drive the Fund's second-quarter performance – as did a materially underweight position in Japan. Financial stocks detracted, hurt by the rising interest rate environment in the UK and Europe.
In the U.S. portion of the portfolio, performance in the third quarter of 2007 was partly driven by a sizeable energy allocation. Other meaningful contributors included the Fund's information technology, consumer staples, materials and industrials sector holdings. The consumer discretionary sector detracted from performance, as did the Fund's holdings in the financials sector. In the international component, stock selection in the industrials sectors hampered returns. In contrast, stock selection and the portfolio's overweight position in energy was a major contributor to performance. From a country perspective, Brazil was the top contributor. Turning to the final three months of 2007, the U.S. equity component of the portfolio declined. The portfolio's energy holdings, however, provided some relief from the slide, due to a rise in crude oil prices of over 50%. Financials was the largest detractor from the Fund's performance in t he fourth quarter, though an underweight position in the segment mitigated losses on a relative basis. In the international component, the portfolio's consumer discretionary investments trailed, as credit markets worldwide seized up. The industrials and financials sectors of the portfolio also underperformed. Despite the international component's overall weak fourth-quarter performance, there were a number of areas that did well. For example, the Fund benefited from strong stock selection in the materials sector.
What is your outlook?
Our view is that in 2008, we may see investors who favor businesses with strong management, strong financials and strong earnings growth. In our opinion, companies with sound fundamentals provide greater appreciation potential, but also have the potential to demonstrate greater resilience when the global economy slows.

MML Foreign Fund – Portfolio Manager Report
What is the investment objective of the MML Foreign Fund – and who is the Fund's sub-adviser?
The Fund seeks long-term capital growth by investing, under normal conditions, at least 80% of its net assets in investments of issuers located outside the U.S., including those in emerging markets. The Fund's sub-adviser is Templeton Investment Counsel, LLC (Templeton).
How did the Fund perform during the 12 months ended December 31, 2007?
The Fund returned 13.48%, outperforming the 11.17% return of the Morgan Stanley Capital International, Inc. Europe, Australasia, Far East ("MSCI® EAFE®") Index, a widely recognized, unmanaged index representative of foreign securities in the major non-U.S. markets of Europe, Australia and the Far East.
What was the investment background during the period?
In spite of elevated energy prices, higher global interest rates, a weaker U.S. housing market and restrained U.S. economic growth, the global economy remained resilient throughout the six-month period ended June 30, 2007. The mood in the global equity markets was predominantly positive, but was interrupted in the first quarter of 2007 due to concerns of slower economic growth. Toward the end of the first half of 2007, a bond market sell-off drove yields up on longer-term Treasuries, reflecting expectations of a pick-up in inflation later in the year. Outside the U.S., economic growth remained solid, particularly in Europe and the emerging markets. Most global equity markets ended the six-month period wi th double-digit total returns.
Global market conditions deteriorated in the third quarter of 2007, as a worsening global credit crunch, triggered by the U.S. subprime mortgage crisis, prompted the European Central Bank, the U.S. Federal Reserve ("Fed") and other central banks to cut short-term borrowing rates for banks. The rate cuts had a calming effect on financial markets and the overall global economy and, together with a larger-than-expected Fed interest rate cut in September, fueled a broad-based stock market rebound. Major Asian and Latin American equity indexes outperformed their U.S. and European counterparts, while emerging markets outperformed developed markets during the third quarter. Despite the credit market instability, overall global economic fundamentals remained solid. Global financial markets were unsettled once again in the fourth quarter of 2007. Uncertainty surrounding the full impact of the U.S. subprime mortgage crisis fueled a high degree of mark et volatility. During the quarter, major Latin American equity indexes outperformed their counterparts around the world as Asian, European and U.S. indexes lost ground, and emerging markets generally outperformed developed markets.
What factors contributed to the Fund's performance?
For the six-month period ended June 30, 2007, the Fund's performance relative to the MSCI EAFE Index benefited most from stock selection in the consumer discretionary sector. The Fund's utilities and health care sector investments also boosted relative performance due to stock selection. The U.S. dollar depreciated versus most foreign currencies for the period, which also contributed to the Fund's performance, because investments in securities with non-U.S. currency exposure gained value as the dollar weakened. Despite the Fund's positive results, there were some disappointments in the first half of 2007. Stock selection in the financials sector and an underweight position in the strong-performing material s sector hindered results relative to the benchmark during the first half of 2007.
Turning to the third quarter of 2007, the portfolio benefited from exposure to several Asian markets, while stock selection within European markets generally proved detrimental to performance. Overweight allocations to China and Singapore plus exposure to South Korea (a non-benchmark country) enhanced results due to solid performance in these markets. An underweight allocation to Japan boosted the Fund's relative performance, and exposure to Brazil further strengthened returns. Conversely, stock selection in Germany, the United Kingdom, Finland, the Netherlands and Norway hindered performance. Stock selection in Spain and France countered otherwise weak results from European investments and had a positive impact. On a sector basis, the portfolio benefited primarily from the telecommunications services sector, as both its overweighted allocation and positive stock selection supported results. An underweight position in financials proved favo rable, as this sector struggled during the period. During the fourth quarter of 2007, the Fund benefited from its stock
51
MML Foreign Fund – Portfolio Manager Report (Continued)
selection in Europe, particularly its exposure to the robust Russian market and healthy gains in many of its holdings in Denmark and France. In Asia, an underweight position in the struggling Japanese market supported relative performance, as did the Fund's exposure to Taiwan (which is not represented in the benchmark) and its stock selection in China. In contrast, relative returns suffered from stock selection in other European markets, including Finland and Germany, as well as from weakness in the Fund's South Korean, Canadian and Israeli holdings. On a sector basis, the Fund's overweight exposure and security selection in the telecommunications services sector supported results. Conversely, relative performance was hindered by the Fund's underweight position and stock selection in the consumer staples sector. Other negative factors included an underweight position in the strong-performing utilities sector and disappointing stock selection in the information technology sector.
What is your outlook?
Despite generally positive economic and financial market fundamentals, we caution that in 2008, we could see a period of consolidation following the strong returns posted by global markets in recent years.

What was the investment background during the period?
Most categories of domestic stocks finished the third quarter of 2007 higher, despite significant market volatility caused by the escalating subprime mortgage crisis. In August, the Federal Reserve ("Fed") cut the discount rate – the interest rate that regional Fed banks charge banks and other financial institutions when they borrow funds on a short-term basis – by 0.50%. After some negative movement in key economic indicators, the Fed lowered the closely watched target federal funds rate by 0.50% to 4.75%, simultaneously cutting the discount rate an additional 0.50% at its September 18 meeting. The federal funds rate is the interest rate that banks and other financial institutions charge each other for borrowing funds overnight. As a result, most broad-based U.S. stock indexes were trading near their all-time highs at the end of the quarter, and foreign stocks advanced. In the bond marketplace, growing concerns about a weakening economy triggered a decline in bond yields and boosted prices, helping the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index advance for the quarter. Bond prices move in the opposite direction of interest rates (or yields); when yields rise, the prices of existing bonds fall – and vice versa.
The fourth quarter began on a positive note, with investors still savoring the third-quarter Fed-engineered interest rate cuts. The Fed's fourth-quarter interest rate reductions (which totaled an additional 0.50% each from both the federal funds and discount rates) failed to help investor confidence in the face of inflationary pressures, lackluster holiday retail sales and news detailing the ongoing impact of subprime exposure on large financial companies. U.S. equities traded lower, as ongoing weakness in the housing market, escalating subprime concerns and crude oil prices that approached $100 per barrel undermined investor confidence. Foreign stocks were not immune during this difficult period, as the MSCI World Ex-US Index returned -1.62% for the fourth quarter. In this environment, higher-quality bonds performed well amid growing concerns about a slowing economy and even a possible recession in the United States. In the end, the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index advanced 3.00% for the quarter.
What factors contributed to the Funds' performance?
Since their inception on August 31, 2007, the Funds have benefited from exposure to international bonds and Treasury inflation-protected securities ("TIPS"). In addition, the Funds' exposure to a high-quality investment-grade portfolio helped to shield them somewhat from the turmoil in the credit markets caused by the subprime mortgage crisis.
On the equity side, a couple of factors helped the Funds' performance, including a well-diversified blend of managers with exposure to U.S. large-cap and international equities and underweight exposure to U.S. small-cap value equities. Conversely, successfully navigating the financials and consumer sectors posed the biggest challenge for Fund management in the second half of 2007.
What is your outlook?
Numerous forces will continue to influence the direction that the market takes throughout 2008. These include the price of oil, the subprime crisis and its impact on housing in particular and the U.S. economy in general, Fed policy and inflation, to name just a few. Despite these uncertainties, we believe that adhering to our goal for the MML Allocation Funds – to manage a graduated risk profile of portfolios that is appropriate for investors seeking a diversified portfolio across market sectors, market capitalizations, styles and managers – will help the Fund successfully withstand any challenges that investors may face in the coming months.

Current performance of the Fund may be lower or higher than the performance quoted. Performance data current to the most recent month end may be obtained by accessing the website www.massmutual.com
Investors should note that the Fund is a professionally managed mutual fund, while the Russell 3000 Index, the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index, the MSCI World Ex-US Index and the Custom MML Growth Index are unmanaged, do not incur expenses, and cannot be purchased directly by investors. Investors should read the Fund's prospectus with regard to the Fund's investment objective, risks and charges and expenses in conjunction with these financial statements. The Fund's return reflects changes in the net asset value per share without the deduction of any product charges. The inclusion of these charges would have reduced the performance shown here.

Notes to Financial Statements
1. The Fund
MML Series Investment Fund ("MML Trust") is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as a no-load, open-end, management investment company. MML Trust is organized under the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts as a Massachusetts business trust pursuant to an Agreement and Declaration of Trust dated May 14, 1993, as amended. The following are eighteen series of MML Trust (each individually referred to as a "Fund" or collectively as the "Funds"): MML Asset Allocation Fund ("Asset Allocation Fund"), MML Equity Income Fund ("Equity Income Fund"), MML Income & Growth Fund ("Income & Growth Fund"), MML Growth & Income Fund ("Growth & Income Fund"), MML Blue Chip Growth Fund ("Blue Chip Growth Fund"), MML Large Cap Growth Fund ("Large Cap Growth Fund"), MML Concentrated Growth Fund ("Concentrated Growth Fund"), MML Mid Cap Value Fund ("Mid Cap Value Fund"), MML Mid Cap Growth Fund ("Mid Cap Growth Fund"), MML Small Cap Value Fund ("Small Cap Value Fund"), MML Small Cap Index Fund ("Small Cap Index Fund"), MML Global Fund ("Global Fund"), MML Foreign Fund ("Foreign Fund"), MML Conservative Allocation Fund ("Conservative Allocation Fund"), MML Balanced Allocation Fund ("Balanced Allocation Fund"), MML Moderate Allocation Fund ("Moderate Allocation Fund"), MML Growth Allocation Fund ("Growth Allocation Fund") and MML Aggressive Allocation Fund ("Aggressive Allocation Fund").
The Asset Allocation Fund, Equity Income Fund, Income & Growth Fund, Growth & Income Fund, Blue Chip Growth Fund, Large Cap Growth Fund, Concentrated Growth Fund, Mid Cap Value Fund, Mid Cap Growth Fund, Small Cap Value Fund, Small Cap Index Fund, Global Fund and Foreign Fund commenced operations on May 1, 2006. The Conservative Allocation Fund, Balanced Allocation Fund, Moderate Allocation Fund, Growth Allocation Fund and Aggressive Allocation Fund commenced operations on August 31, 2007.
MML Trust was established by Massachusetts Mutual Life Insurance Company ("MassMutual") for the purpose of providing vehicles for the investment of assets of various separate investment accounts established by MassMutual and by life insurance companies which are subsidiaries of MassMutual. Shares of MML Trust are not offered to the general public. MassMutual, MML Bay State Life Insurance Company and C.M. Life Insurance Company are the record owners of all of the outstanding shares of the Funds.
The Conservative Allocation Fund, Balanced Allocation Fund, Moderate Allocation Fund, Growth Allocation Fund and Aggressive Allocation Fund invest all of their investable assets in shares of various funds advised by MassMutual as a control affiliate of MassMutual. The financial statements included herein are those of the Funds listed above and the applicable MML Series Investment Funds. The financial statements of the applicable MML Series Investment Funds II, or Oppenheimer Funds which are advised by Oppenheimer Funds, Inc., a majority owned, indirect subsidiary of MassMutual, are presented separately and can be obtained from the SEC's EDGAR database on its Internet site at www.sec.gov or by calling MassMutual at 1-888-309-3539. The assets of each of the five listed above Allocation Funds are diversified and a shareholder's interest is limited to the MML Series Investment Funds, MML Series Investment Funds II or Oppenheimer Funds in which t he shares are invested.
The Concentrated Growth Fund and Global Fund offer two classes of shares: Class I and Class II. Each share class invests in the same portfolio of assets. The principal difference among the classes is the level of service and administration fees borne by the classes. Because each class will have different fees and expenses, performance and share prices among the classes will vary. The classes of shares are offered to different types of investors, as outlined in each Fund's Prospectus.
2. Significant Accounting Policies
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed consistently by each Fund in the preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("generally accepted accounting principles"). The preparation of the financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Equity securities are valued on the basis of valuations furnished by a pricing service, authorized by the Board of Trustees ("Trustees"), which provides the last reported sale price for securities listed on a national securities exchange or the official closing price on the NASDAQ National Market System, or in the case of over-the-counter securities not so listed, the last reported bid price. Debt securities (other than short-term obligations) are valued on the basis of valuations furnished by a pricing service, authorized by the Trustees, which determines valuations taking into account appropriate factors such as institutional-size trading in similar groups of securities, yield, quality, coupon rate, maturity, type of issue, trading characteri stics and other market data. Short-term securities are valued at either amortized cost or at original cost plus accrued interest, whichever approximates current market value. Shares of other funds are valued at their net asset value as reported on each business day. All other securities and other assets, including futures, options, swaps and debt securities for which the prices supplied by a pricing agent are deemed by the Trustees not to be representative of market values, including restricted securities and securities for which no market quotation is available, are valued at fair value in accordance with procedures approved by the Trustees. Securities are typically valued on the basis of valuations furnished by a primary pricing service or, if no such valuation is available, from a secondary pricing service. However, valuation methods approved by the Trustees which are intended to reflect fair value may be used when pricing service information is not readily available or when a security's value is believed to have been materially affected by a significant event, such as a natural disaster, an economic event like a bankruptcy filing, or a substantial fluctuation in domestic or foreign markets, that has occurred after the close of the exchange or market on which the security is principally traded (for example, a foreign exchange or market). In such a case, a Fund's value for a security is likely to be different from the last quoted market price or pricing service information. In addition, a fair value pricing service is used to assist in the pricing of each of the foreign securities held by the MML Trust's foreign funds. Due to the subjective and variable nature of fair value pricing, it is possible that the value determined for a particular asset may be materially different from the value realized upon such asset's sale.
Portfolio securities traded on more than one national securities exchange are valued at the last price on the business day as of which such value is being determined at the close of the exchange representing the principal market for such securities. All assets and liabilities expressed in foreign currencies are converted into U.S. dollars at the mean between the buying and selling rates of such currencies against U.S. dollars last quoted by any major bank. If such quotations are not available, the rate of exchange is determined in accordance with policies established by the Trustees.
Securities Lending
Each Fund may lend its securities to qualified brokers; however, securities lending cannot exceed 33% of the total assets of the Funds taken at current value. The loans are collateralized at all times with cash or securities with a market value at least equal to 100% of the market value of the securities on loan. The market value of the loaned securities is determined at the close of business of the Fund and any additional collateral is delivered to the Fund the next business day. As with other extensions of credit, the Funds may bear the risk of delay in recovery or even loss of rights in the collateral should the borrower of the securities fail financially. The Funds receive compensation for lending their securities.

Repurchase Agreements
Each Fund may enter into repurchase agreements with certain banks and broker/dealers whereby a Fund acquires a security for cash and obtains a simultaneous commitment from the seller to repurchase the security at an agreed upon price and date. The Funds, through their custodian, take possession of the securities collateralizing the repurchase agreement. The collateral is marked to market daily to ensure that the market value of the underlying assets remains sufficient to protect the Funds in the event of default by the seller. Collateral for certain tri-party repurchase agreements is held at the counterparty's custodian in a segregated account for the benefit of the Funds and the counterparty. In connection with transactions in repurchase agre ements, if the seller defaults and the value of the collateral declines or if the seller enters insolvency proceedings, realization of collateral by the Funds may be delayed or limited.
Accounting for Investments
Investment transactions are accounted for on the trade date. Realized gains and losses on sales of investments (which may include proceeds received from litigation) and unrealized appreciation and depreciation of investments are computed by the specific identification cost method. Interest income, adjusted for amortization of discounts and premiums on debt securities, is earned from the settlement date and is recorded on the accrual basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date.
Federal Income Tax
It is each Fund's intent to continue to comply with the provisions of subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the "Code"), applicable to a regulated investment company. Under such provisions, the Funds will not be subject to federal income taxes on their ordinary income and net realized capital gains to the extent they are distributed or deemed to have been distributed to their shareholders. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required. Withholding taxes on foreign interest, dividends and capital gains have been provided for in accordance with the applicable country's tax rules and rates.
Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders
Dividends from net investment income and distributions of any net realized capital gains of each Fund are declared and paid annually and at other times as may be required to satisfy tax or regulatory requirements. Distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles. These differences are primarily due to investments in passive foreign investment companies and the deferral of wash sale losses. As a result, net investment income and net realized gain on investment transactions for a reporting period may differ significantly from distributions during su ch period.
Accordingly, the Funds may periodically make reclassifications among certain of their capital accounts without affecting the net asset value of the Funds.
During the year ended December 31, 2007, the following amounts were reclassified due to differences between book and tax accounting.

Foreign Currency Translation
The books and records of the Funds are maintained in U.S. dollars. The market values of foreign currencies, foreign securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. dollars at the mean of the buying and selling rates of such currencies against the U.S. dollar at the end of each business day. Purchases and sales of foreign securities and income and expense items are translated at the rates of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions. The Funds do not isolate that portion of the results of operations arising from changes in the exchange rates from that portion arising from changes in the market prices of securities. Net realized foreign currency gains and losses resul ting from changes in exchange rates include foreign currency gains and losses between trade date and settlement date on investment securities transactions, foreign currency transactions and the difference between the amounts of dividends recorded on the books of the Funds and the amount actually received.
Forward Foreign Currency Contracts
Each Fund may enter into forward foreign currency contracts in order to hedge the effect of currency movements of foreign denominated securities or obligations. A forward foreign currency contract is an agreement between two parties to buy and sell a currency at a set price on a future date. The market value of a forward foreign currency contract fluctuates with changes in foreign currency exchange and interest rates. Forward foreign currency contracts are marked to market daily and the change in their value is recorded by the Funds as an unrealized gain or loss. When a forward foreign currency contract is extinguished, through delivery or offset by ente ring into another forward foreign currency contract, the Funds record a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value of the contract at the time it was extinguished or offset.
Forward foreign currency contracts involve a risk of loss from the potential inability of counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts and from unanticipated movements in foreign currency values and interest rates.
The notional or contractual amounts of these instruments represent the investments the Funds have in particular classes of financial instruments and do not necessarily represent the amounts potentially subject to risk. The measurement of the risk associated with these instruments is meaningful only when all related and offsetting transactions and counterparty risk are considered.
A summary of open forward foreign currency contracts for the Asset Allocation Fund and the Mid Cap Value Fund at December 31, 2007 was as follows:

Delayed Delivery Transactions, When Issued Securities, and Forward Commitments
Each Fund may purchase or sell securities on a "when issued" or delayed delivery or on a forward commitment basis. The Funds use forward commitments to manage interest rate exposure or as a temporary substitute for purchasing or selling particular debt securities. Payment and delivery may take place after the customary settlement period for that security. The price of the underlying securities and the date when the securities will be delivered and paid for are fixed at the time the transaction is negotiated. These securities are valued on the basis of valuations furnished by a pricing service, authorized by the Trustees, which determines valuations taking into account appropriate factors such as institutional-size trading in similar groups of securities, yield, quality, coupon rate, maturity, type of issue, trading characteristics and other market data. Securities for which no market quotation is available, are valued at fair value in accordance with procedures approved by the Trustees. The Funds record on a daily basis the unrealized appreciation (depreciation) based upon changes in the value of these securities. When a forward commitment contract is closed, the Funds record a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value of the contract at the time it was closed. Losses may arise due to changes in the value of the underlying securities or if the counterparty does not perform under the contract, or if the issuer does not issue the securities due to political, economic, or other factors. Funds monitor exposure to ensure counterparties are creditworthy and concentration of exposure is minimized.
Financial Futures Contracts
The Funds may purchase or sell financial futures contracts and options on such futures contracts for the purpose of hedging the market risk on existing securities or as a substitute for the purchase of securities. Futures contracts are contracts for delayed delivery of securities at a specific future date and at a specific price or yield. Upon entering into a contract, the Funds deposit and maintain as collateral such initial margin as required by the exchange on which the transaction is effected. Pursuant to the contract, the Fund agrees to receive from or pay to the broker an amount of cash equal to the daily fluctuation in value of the contract. Such receipts or payments are known as variation margin and are recorded by the Funds as unreali zed gains or losses. When the contract is closed, each Fund records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed. Futures contracts are valued at the settlement price established each day by the board of trade or exchange on which they are traded.
A summary of open futures contracts for the Small Cap Value Fund and Small Cap Index Fund at December 31, 2007, was as follows:
Number of Contracts | Type | Expiration Date | Notional Contract Value | Net Unrealized Appreciation | |||||||||||||||
Small Cap Value Fund | |||||||||||||||||||

BUYS 7 | Russell Mini | 3/20/08 | 540,540 | 9,960 |
Allocation of Operating Activity
In maintaining the records for the Concentrated Growth Fund and Global Fund, the income and expense accounts are allocated to each class of shares. Investment income, unrealized and realized gains or losses are prorated among the classes of shares based on the relative net assets of each. Expenses are allocated to each class of shares depending on the nature of the expenditures. Administration fees, which are directly attributable to a class of shares, are charged to that class' operations. Expenses of the Fund not directly attributable to the operations of any class of shares are prorated among the classes to which the expense relates based on the relative net assets of each.
Foreign Securities
The Foreign Fund invests substantially all of its assets in foreign securities. The other Funds may also invest in foreign securities, subject to certain percentage restrictions. Investing in securities of foreign companies and foreign governments involves special risks and considerations not typically associated with investing in securities of U.S. companies and the U.S. Government. These risks include revaluation of currencies and future adverse political and economic developments. Moreover, securities of many foreign companies and foreign governments and their markets may be less liquid and their prices more volatile than those of securities of comparable U.S. companies and the U.S. Government.

Restricted Securities
Certain securities are illiquid and restricted as to resale. They have been valued in good faith under procedures established by the Board of Trustees, taking into consideration such factors as the Board deems appropriate.

Aggregate cost and fair value of these restricted securities held at December 31, 2007 were as follows:
Aggregate Cost | Aggregate Value | Value as Percentage of Fund's Net Assets | |||||||||||||

Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)
At December 31, 2007, the following Funds had available, for Federal income tax purposes, unused capital losses:
Expiring 2014 | |||||||
Blue Chip Growth Fund | $ | 216,675 | |||||
Large Cap Growth Fund | 527,453 | ||||||
Small Cap Value Fund | 4,165,906 |
Net capital loss carryforwards may be applied against any net realized taxable gains in each succeeding year, or until their respective expiration dates, whichever occurs first.
Certain differences exist from the amounts reflected in the Statement of Changes in Net Assets primarily due to the character of short-term capital gains treated as ordinary income for tax purposes.
The Fund distinguishes between distributions on a tax basis and a financial reporting basis. Accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America require that only distributions in excess of tax basis earnings and profits be reported in the financial statements as a return of capital.
The tax character of distributions paid during the year ended December 31, 2007 was as follows:

During the year ended December 31, 2007 the Funds adopted Financial Accounting Standards Board Interpretation No. 48 "Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes" ("FIN 48") with the impact of such adoption being recognized on June 29, 2007 in accordance with guidance provided by the Securities and Exchange Commission. The adoption of FIN 48 did not have a material effect on the net asset value, financial condition or results of operations of the Funds as there was no liability required for the recognition for unrecognized tax benefits during the year, nor were there any such liabilities to be recorded to the beginning net asset value of the Funds.
To the extent required, the Funds recognize interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax benefits as an income tax expense in the Statements of Operations. During the year ended December 31, 2007, the Funds did not incur any interest or penalties. The Funds are subject to examination by U.S. federal, state and foreign tax authorities for returns filed after 2004, 2005 and 2006, respectively.

8. Indemnifications
Under the Funds' organizational documents, current and former Trustees and Officers are provided with a limited indemnification against liabilities arising in connection with the performance of their duties to the Funds, and shareholders are indemnified against personal liability for obligations of the Funds. In the normal course of business, the Funds may also enter into contracts that provide general indemnifications. The Funds' maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this would be dependent on future claims that may be made against the Funds. The risk of material loss from such claims is considered remote.
9. New Accounting Pronouncements
In September 2006, Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157, "Fair Value Measurements" ("SFAS 157"), was issued and is effective for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007. SFAS 157 determines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Management is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of SFAS 157 will have on the Funds' financial statement disclosures.

Information on the operation of the SEC's Public Reference Room may be obtained by calling 1-800-SEC-0330.
12. Trustees' Approval of Investment Advisory Contracts (Unaudited)
At a meeting held on May 9, 2007, the Board of Trustees of MML Trust (the "Board"), including the Trustees who are not "interested persons" (as such term is defined in the 1940 Act) of MML Trust, the Adviser or Sub-Advisers (the "Independent Trustees") approved the amended Sub-Advisory Agreement ("Amended Sub-Advisory Agreement") with T. Rowe Price Associates, Inc. ("T. Rowe Price") for the Blue Chip Growth Fund. Under the Amended Sub-Advisory Agreement, a modification would be made to the investment sub-advisory fee, whereby the investment sub-advisory fee would decrease.
In approving the Amended Sub-Advisory Agreement, the Board discussed with Management and considered a wide range of information about, among other things: (i) T. Rowe Price and its personnel with responsibilities for providing services to the Fund; (ii) the terms of the Amended Sub-Advisory Agreement; (iii) the scope and quality of services provided by T. Rowe Price under the Amended Sub-Advisory Agreement; (iv) the fees payable to T. Rowe Price by the Adviser; and (v) T. Rowe Price's practices regarding the selection and compensation of brokers and dealers that execute portfolio transactions for the Fund, and the brokers' and dealers' provision of brokerage and research services to T. Rowe Price.
Based on the foregoing, the Board concluded that (i) the sub-advisory fee amount under the Amended Sub-Advisory Agreement was fair and reasonable; (ii) overall, the Board was satisfied with the nature, extent and quality of services provided, and expected to be provided in the future, under the Amended Sub-Advisory Agreement; and (iii) the terms of the Amended Sub-Advisory Agreement are fair and reasonable with respect to the Fund and are in the best interest of the Fund's shareholders. After carefully considering the information summarized above, the Board, including the Independent Trustees voting separately, unanimously voted to approve the Amended Sub-Advisory Agreement.
Prior to the votes being taken to approve the Amended Sub-Advisory Agreement, the Independent Trustees met separately in executive session to discuss the appropriateness of the contract. In their deliberations with respect to these matters, the Independent Trustees were advised by their independent legal counsel. The Independent Trustees weighed the foregoing matters in light of the advice given to them by their independent legal counsel as to the law applicable to the review of investment advisory contracts. In arriving at a decision, the Board, including the Independent Trustees, did not identify any single matter as all-important or controlling. The foregoing summary does not detail all of the matters considered.
The Amended Sub-Advisory Agreement took effect on November 28, 2007.
At a meeting held on August 7, 2007, the Board, including the Independent Trustees, approved the Advisory Agreements for the Conservative Allocation Fund, Balanced Allocation Fund, Moderate Allocation Fund, Growth Allocation Fund and Aggressive Allocation Fund (the "MML Asset Allocation Funds") subject to approval by the shareholders of each Fund of the respective Advisory Agreement. In preparation for the meeting, the Trustees requested, and the Adviser provided in advance of the meeting, certain materials relevant to the consideration of the Advisory Agreements. The Board also received, in advance of the meeting, memoranda prepared by counsel to the Independent Trustees addressing their duties and responsibilities in approving the Advisory Agreements, including identification of types of information relevant to such consideration.
At the meeting, representatives of the Adviser made an extensive presentation concerning the Advisers' operations and capabilities as well as the investment strategies to be pursued by the MML Asset Allocation Funds.
In approving the Advisory Agreements, the Board considered the materials provided by the Adviser in advance of the Meeting and information discussed with Management at the Meeting relating to the Adviser and the nature, scope and quality of services the Adviser would provide to the Funds. The Board examined the Adviser's ability to provide investment oversight, administrative and shareholders services to each Fund. The Board also considered the experience and qualifications of the personnel of the Adviser that would be performing, or overseeing the performance of, the services to be provided to
174
Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)
each MML Asset Allocation Fund and the needs of each Fund for administrative and shareholder services. Based on the above, the Board concluded that the resources to be devoted by the Adviser were appropriate to fulfill effectively its duties under the Advisory Agreements.
The Board considered a number of factors to be relevant to the interests of shareholders of the MML Asset Allocation Funds. Such factors included (i) the financial condition, stability and business strategy of the Adviser, (ii) the ability of the Adviser with respect to regulatory compliance and the ability to monitor compliance with the investment policies of each MML Asset Allocation Fund, (iii) the profitability of the Adviser, (iv) possible economies of scale, and (v) any conditions affecting the Adviser's future provision of high quality services to the MML Asset Allocation Funds.
Based on the foregoing, the Board determined that (i) the resources to be devoted by the Adviser were appropriate to fulfill effectively its duties under the Advisory Agreements for the MML Asset Allocation Funds, (ii) the anticipated scope and quality of the services to be provided by the Adviser were satisfactory to merit approval of the Advisory Agreements, (iii) the Adviser's projected levels of profitability from its relationship to the MML Asset Allocation Funds were not excessive and that the advisory fees payable under the Advisory Agreements were fair and reasonable, and (iv) the terms of the Advisory Agreements were fair and reasonable with respect to each MML Asset Allocation Fund and were in the best interests of each Fund's shareholders. After carefully considering the information summarized above, the Board, including the Independent Trustees voting separately, unanimously voted to approve the Advisory Agreements.
Prior to the votes being taken to approve the Advisory Agreements, the Independent Trustees met separately in executive session to discuss the appropriateness of such contracts. In their deliberations with respect to these matters, the Independent Trustees were advised by their independent legal counsel. The Independent Trustees weighed the foregoing matters in light of the advice given to them by their independent legal counsel as to the law applicable to the review of investment advisory contracts. In arriving at a decision, the Board, including the Independent Trustees, did not identify any single matter as all-important or controlling. The foregoing summary does not detail all of the matters considered.
The Advisory Agreements took effect on August 31, 2007.
At a meeting held on November 6, 2007, the Board, including the Independent Trustees, approved a new Sub-Advisory Agreement ("New Sub-Advisory Agreement) with AllianceBernstein L.P ("AllianceBernstein") for the Small Cap Value Fund and approved an amended Sub-Advisory Agreement ("Amended Sub-Advisory Agreement") with Legg Mason Capital Management, Inc. ("Legg Mason") for the Concentrated Growth Fund.
After arriving at the decision to add a co-sub-adviser, in addition to Goldman Sachs Asset Management, L.P. ("Goldman Sachs"), to the Small Cap Value Fund, the Trustees determined that it would be appropriate to find another sub-adviser that would complement Goldman Sachs. The sub-adviser should be a stable firm with a strong organization and brand, should have an experienced portfolio manager and should have a track record that represented a successful and consistent approach. After careful consideration, the Trustees determined that AllianceBernstein provided the best opportunity for the Fund.
Under the Amended Sub-Advisory Agreement, a modification would be made to the investment sub-advisory fee for the Concentrated Growth Fund, whereby the fee schedule would include breakpoints based on Aggregate Assets. For the purposes of this Amended Sub-Advisory Agreement, "Aggregate Assets" shall mean the aggregate of (i) the average daily net assets of the Fund determined at the close of the New York Stock Exchange on each day that the Exchange is open for trading, and (ii) the average daily net assets of all other funds or accounts of MassMutual or its affiliates, including other funds registered under the 1940 Act, for which Legg Mason provides investment advisory services, and which have substantially the same investment objectives, policies and investment strategies, determined at the close of the Exchange on each day that the Exchange is open for trading.
In approving the New Sub-Advisory Agreement and the Amended Sub-Advisory Agreement, the Board considered information about, among other things: (i) each Sub-Adviser and its personnel with responsibilities for providing services to the Funds; (ii) the terms of the New Sub-Advisory Agreement and the Amended Sub-Advisory Agreement; (iii) the scope and quality of the services that each Sub-Adviser will provide to the Funds under the respective agreements; (iv) the historical investment
175
Notes to Financial Statements (Continued)
performance track record of each Sub-Adviser, (v) the fees payable to each Sub-Adviser by the Adviser and, with regard to the New Sub-Advisory Agreement, the effect of such fees on the profitability of the Adviser; and (vi) each Sub-Adviser's practices regarding the selection and compensation of brokers and dealers that execute portfolio transactions for the Funds, and the brokers' and dealers' provision of brokerage and research services to each Sub-Adviser.
Based on the foregoing, the Board concluded that (i) with regard to the New Sub-Advisory Agreement, the Adviser's level of profitability from its relationship to the Fund was not excessive, and that the sub-advisory fee amounts under the New Sub-Advisory Agreement and the Amended Sub-Advisory Agreement were fair and reasonable; (ii) overall, the Board was satisfied with the nature, extent and quality of services provided, and expected to be provided in the future, as applicable, under the New Sub-Advisory Agreement and the Amended Sub-Advisory Agreement; and (iii) the terms of the New Sub-Advisory Agreement and the Amended Sub-Advisory Agreement are fair and reasonable with respect to the Funds and are in the best interest of each Fund's shareholders. After carefully considering the information summarized above, the Board, including the Independent Trustees voting separately, unanimously voted to approve the New Sub-Advisory Agreement and th e Amended Sub-Advisory Agreement.
Prior to the votes being taken to approve the New Sub-Advisory Agreement and the Amended Sub-Advisory Agreement, the Independent Trustees met separately in executive session to discuss the appropriateness of such contracts. In their deliberations with respect to these matters, the Independent Trustees were advised by their independent legal counsel. The Independent Trustees weighed the foregoing matters in light of the advice given to them by their independent legal counsel as to the law applicable to the review of investment advisory contracts. In arriving at a decision, the Board, including the Independent Trustees, did not identify any single matter as all-important or controlling. The foregoing summary does not detail all of the matters considered.
The New Sub-Advisory Agreement for the Small Cap Value Fund became effective November 28, 2007. The Amended Sub-Advisory Agreement for the Concentrated Growth Fund became effective on December 17, 2007.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Board of Trustees of MML Series Investment Fund and Shareholders of MML Asset Allocation Fund, MML Equity Income Fund, MML Income and Growth Fund, MML Growth and Income Fund, MML Blue Chip Growth Fund, MML Large Cap Growth Fund, MML Concentrated Growth Fund, MML Mid Cap Value Fund, MML Mid Cap Growth Fund, MML Small Cap Value Fund, MML Small Cap Index Fund, MML Global Fund, MML Foreign Fund, MML Conservative Allocation Fund, MML Balanced Allocation Fund, MML Moderate Allocation Fund, MML Growth Allocation Fund, and MML Aggressive Allocation Fund:
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities, including the portfolios of investments, of MML Asset Allocation Fund, MML Equity Income Fund, MML Income and Growth Fund, MML Growth and Income Fund, MML Blue Chip Growth Fund, MML Large Cap Growth Fund, MML Concentrated Growth Fund, MML Mid Cap Value Fund, MML Mid Cap Growth Fund, MML Small Cap Value Fund, MML Small Cap Index Fund, MML Global Fund, MML Foreign Fund, MML Conservative Allocation Fund, MML Balanced Allocation Fund, MML Moderate Allocation Fund, MML Growth Allocation Fund, and MML Aggressive Allocation Fund (collectively the "Funds"), eighteen of the funds comprising the MML Series Investment Fund (the "MML Trust"), as of December 31, 2007, and the related statements of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the two years in the period th en ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the MML Trust's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. The MML Trust is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. Our audits include consideration of internal control over financial reporting as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion of the effectiveness of the MML Trust's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion. An audit also includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and sign ificant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. Our procedures include confirmation of securities owned as of December 31, 2007, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers; where replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of each of the Funds as of December 31, 2007, the results of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the two years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Fund Expenses December 31, 2007
Expense Examples | The following information is in regards to expenses for the six months ended December 31, 2007: As a shareholder of the Funds, you incur ongoing costs, including management fees and other Fund expenses. These examples are intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Funds and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds. These examples are based on an investment of $1,000 invested for the six months ended December 31, 2007. | ||||||
Actual Expenses | The four columns of the table below provide information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use this information, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number under the heading entitled "Operating Expenses Incurred" to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period. | ||||||
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes | The last two columns of the table below provide information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund's actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund's actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds. Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only. Therefore, the last two columns of the table are useful in comparing ongoing costs only, and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. | ||||||
