With respect to the proposal to close the MML American Funds International Fund, we are asking you to vote your proxy, which will be resent to you by overnight mail. The Board is proposing to liquidate this Fund due to poor relative performance and a relatively low asset base. The Special Meeting of Shareholders has been adjourned until July 28, 2022 in order to provide shareholders with more time to vote their proxies.
Mr./Ms. <Shareholder’s Last Name>, your vote is important, and your time is appreciated. Thank you and have a good <day, evening, night>.

Would you like me to review the proposal with you? <If yes, read text below.>
With respect to the proposal to change the diversification status of the MML Large Cap Growth Fund, we are asking you to vote your proxy, which will be resent to you by overnight mail. The Board has agreed with Management’s proposal to change the Fund’s diversification status from diversified to non-diversified. This is due to the Fund’s benchmark index becoming more concentrated in its top holdings over recent years. Allowing the Fund to move to a non-diversified status would allow the portfolio manager to invest in a similarly concentrated fashion as the benchmark index. The Special Meeting of Shareholders has been adjourned until July 28, 2022 in order to provide shareholders with more time to vote their proxies.
Mr./Ms. <Shareholder’s Last Name>, your vote is important, and your time is appreciated. Thank you and have a good <day, evening, night>.
