Explanatory Note: MetLife Life and Annuity Company of Connecticut (MLAC) merged with and into MetLife Insurance Company of Connecticut (MICC) on December 7, 2007. In connection with that merger, MLAC has terminated the offering of the fixed account options under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and removed from registration any such fixed account options that remained unsold under the Form S-1 registration statement as of the close of business on December 6, 2007. On December 7, 2007, the filing fees associated with those unsold securities were used to offset the filing fees due for a subsequent registration statement filed on Form S-1 by MLAC’s successor, MICC.
