                                        4



                                     SUMMARY

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

This prospectus describes the Fixed Account Option available as a companion
Contract with variable annuity contracts registered with the Securities and
Exchange Commission of Separate Account Eleven (Gold Track, Gold Track Select
and MetLife Retirement Account Contracts), and Separate Account QPN (MetLife
Retirement Perspectives, Unregistered Gold Track, Gold Track VSP and MetLife
Retirement Perspectives VSP (hereafter all referred to as MetLife Retirement
Perspectives) and Unallocated Group Variable Annuity Contracts). The Contracts
are used with:

     -    qualified pension and profit-sharing Plans

     -    tax-deferred annuity Plans (for public school teachers and employees
          and employees of certain other tax-exempt and qualifying employers)

     -    deferred compensation Plans of state and local governments and
          nonqualified deferred compensation plans

     -    individual retirement accounts

MetLife Insurance Company of Connecticut ("We" or the "Company") issues the
Contracts. Purchase Payments made under the Contracts and directed to the Fixed
Account Option become a part of the Company's General Account. Purchase Payments
may also be allocated to one or more Separate Account Options. The variable
annuity contract and underlying mutual funds are described in separate
prospectuses. Please read all prospectuses carefully.

During the Accumulation Period, the Fixed Account Option provides for Purchase
Payments to be credited with an initial interest rate for a 12-month period. We
guarantee that the initial credited interest rate will never be less than the
minimum interest rate permitted under state law. The initial interest rate will
be declared quarterly for Gold Track and Gold Track Select Contracts issued in
connection with Plans established under Section 401, Section 457, and certain
Plans established under Section 403(b) of the Code. The initial interest rate
will be declared quarterly for the MetLife Retirement Perspectives and
Unallocated Group Variable Annuity Contracts issued in connection with Plans
established under Section 401 of the Code. The initial interest rate will be
declared monthly for all MetLife Retirement Account Contracts and for Gold Track
Contracts issued in connection with combination Plans established pursuant to
Sections 403(b)/401 and certain Contracts issued in connection with Section
403(b) Plans.

At the end of the 12-month Guarantee Period, a renewal interest rate will be
determined by the Company. We guarantee that the renewal interest rate will
never be less that the minimum interest rate permitted under state law. At the
end of the initial Guarantee Period, the first renewal rate will be guaranteed
to the end of the calendar year. The second and all subsequent renewal rates
will be declared each January 1 thereafter, and will be guaranteed through
December 31 of that year. The rates of interest credited will affect a contract
or account's Cash Value. (See "Cash Values".) Such rates may also be used to
determine amounts payable upon termination of the contracts. (See
"Surrenders -- Contract Termination".)

The Company may offer the Fixed Account Option with guaranteed rates that are
declared on a calendar quarter basis and applied to all Purchase Payments for
the remainder of the calendar quarter. At the end of the calendar quarter, the
Company will declare a new guarantee rate that will be applied to all new
Purchase Payments allocated to the Fixed Account Option for the following
calendar quarter, as well as Purchase Payments that were previously applied to
the Fixed Account Option.

Generally, the Company intends to invest assets directed to the Fixed Account
Option in investment-grade securities. The Company has no specific formula for
determining the initial interest rates or renewal interest rates. However, such
a determination will generally reflect interest rates available on the types of
debt instruments in which the Company intends to invest the amounts directed to
the Fixed Account Option. In addition, the Company's management may also
consider various other factors in determining these rates for a given period,
including regulatory and tax requirements; sales commission and administrative
expenses borne by the Company; general economic trends; and competitive factors.
(See "Investments by the Company".)

The Contract Owner or Participant, if so authorized, may, during the
Accumulation Period, direct all or a portion of a Contract or account's Cash
Value under the Fixed Account Option to one or more of the investment options of
the Separate Account. No sales charges will be deducted on such transfers.
However, there are restrictions which may limit the amount that may be so
directed and transfers may be deferred in certain cases. (See "Transfers from
the Fixed Account".)


                                        5





Distributions and transfers from the Fixed Account Option are made on a last-in,
first-out basis. We will determine the Cash Surrender Value as of the next
valuation date after We receive a Written Request at Our Home Office. We reserve
the right to defer payment of the Fixed Account Option for up to six months from
the date We receive the Written Request. If a payment is deferred for more than
30 days after We receive the request, We will pay a minimum interest rate on the
amount.

                              THE INSURANCE COMPANY

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

MetLife Insurance Company of Connecticut is a stock insurance company chartered
in 1863 in the state of Connecticut and has been continuously engaged in the
insurance business since that time. It is licensed to conduct life insurance
business in all states of the United States, the District of Columbia, Puerto

Inc., through its subsidiaries and affiliates, is a leading provider of
insurance and other financial services to individual and institutional

located at 4700 Westown Parkway, Ste. 200, West Des Moines, Iowa 50266.

                  THE ANNUITY CONTRACT AND YOUR RETIREMENT PLAN

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If You participate through a retirement Plan or other group arrangement, the
Contract may provide that all or some of Your rights or choices as described in
this prospectus are subject to the Plan's terms. For example, limitations on
Your rights may apply to Purchase Payments, withdrawals, transfers, loans, the
death benefit and pay-out options.

The Contract may provide that a Plan administrative fee will be paid by making a
withdrawal from the Contract/Certificate Cash Value. Also, the Contract may
require that You or Your Beneficiary obtain a signed authorization from Your
employer or Plan Administrator to exercise certain rights. We may rely on Your
employer's or Plan Administrator's statements to Us as to the terms of the Plan
or Your entitlement to any amounts. We are not a party to Your employer's
retirement Plan. We will not be responsible for determining what Your Plan says.
You should consult the Contract and Plan document to see how You may be
affected. If You are a Texas Optional Retirement Program Participant, please see
Appendix A for specific information which applies to You.

                            THE FIXED ACCOUNT OPTION

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Fixed Account Option is available only in conjunction with the purchase of a
variable annuity contract (Gold Track, Gold Track Select, MetLife Retirement
Account, Unallocated Group Variable Annuity Contract or MetLife Retirement
Perspectives; "Gold Track", "Gold Track Select", "MetLife Retirement Account",
"Unallocated Group Variable Annuity" and "MetLife Retirement Perspectives")
issued by the Company. The Contracts are available as individual or group
Contracts. Participants under the Gold Track, Gold Track Select and MetLife
Retirement Account are issued Certificates summarizing the provisions of the
group Contract. Participants under Unallocated Group Variable Annuity and
MetLife Retirement Perspectives are not issued Certificates. For convenience, We
refer to both individual Contract Owners and Participants as Contract Owners.
Where permitted by state law, We reserve the right to restrict Purchase Payments
into the Fixed Account Option under Your MetLife Retirement Account Contract
whenever the credited interest rate on the Fixed Account is equal to the minimum
Guaranteed Interest Rate specified under Your Contract.

THE ACCUMULATION PERIOD

PURCHASE PAYMENTS

During the Accumulation Period, all or a portion of Purchase Payments (less any
Premium Taxes), may be allocated to the Fixed Account Option. We may refuse to
accept total Purchase Payments over $3,000,000.


                                        6





We accept Purchase Payments made by check or cashier's check. We do not accept
cash, money orders or traveler's checks. We reserve the right to refuse Purchase
Payments made via a personal check in excess of $100,000. Purchase payments over
$100,000 may be accepted in other forms, including but not limited to, EFT/wire
transfers, certified checks, corporate checks, and checks written on financial
institutions. The form in which We receive a Purchase Payment may determine how
soon subsequent disbursement requests may be fulfilled.

PURCHASE PAYMENTS -- SECTION 403(B) PLANS

The Internal Revenue Service ("IRS") announced new regulations affecting Section
403(b) Plans and arrangements which are generally effective January 1, 2009. As
part of these regulations, employers will need to meet certain requirements in
order for their employees' annuity contracts that fund these programs to retain
a tax deferred status under Section 403(b). Prior to the new rules, transfers of
one annuity contract to another would not result in a loss of tax deferred
status under Section 403(b) under certain conditions (so-called "90-24
transfers"). The new regulations have the following effect regarding transfers:
(1) a newly issued contract funded by a transfer which is completed after
September 24, 2007, is subject to the employer requirements referred to above;
(2) additional purchase payments made after September 24, 2007, to a contract
that was funded by a 90-24 transfer on or before September 24, 2007, may subject
the contract to this new employer requirement.

In consideration of these regulations, We have determined to only make available
the Contract/Certificate for purchase (including transfers) where Your employer
currently permits salary reduction contributions to be made to the
Contract/Certificate.

If Your Contract/Certificate was issued previously as a result of a 90-24
transfer completed on or before September 24, 2007, and You have never made
salary reduction contributions into Your Contract/Certificate, We urge You to
consult with Your tax adviser prior to making additional Purchase Payments.

DECLARED INTEREST RATES OF THE INITIAL AND SUBSEQUENT RENEWAL PERIODS

The Fixed Account guarantees an initial interest rate for a 12-month period. For
the following Contracts We will declare initial interest rates quarterly:

     -    Gold Track Select Contracts issued in connection with a Plan
          established under Sections 401, 457 or 403(b) of the Code

     -    Unallocated Group Variable Annuity and MetLife Retirement Perspectives
          Contracts issued in connection with a Plan established under Section
          401 of the Code

     -    Gold Track Contracts for Plans established under Sections 401, 457 of
          the Code

For the following Contracts, We will declare initial interest rates monthly:

     -    MetLife Retirement Account Contracts

     -    Gold Track Contracts issued in connection with a Plan established
          under Section 403(b) or combination contracts under Sections
          403(b)/401

At the end of the 12-month Guarantee Period, a renewal interest rate will be
determined. The rate will never be less than the minimum interest rate permitted
under state law. At the end of the initial Guarantee Period, the first renewal
rate will be guaranteed to the end of that calendar year. The second and all
future renewal rates will be declared each subsequent January 1 and guaranteed
through December 31 of each year.

The Company may offer the Fixed Account Option with guaranteed rates that are
declared on a calendar quarter basis and applied to all Purchase Payments for
the remainder of the calendar quarter. At the end of the calendar quarter, the
Company will declare a new guarantee rate that will be applied to all new
Purchase Payments allocated to the Fixed Account Option for the following
calendar quarter, as well as Purchase Payments that were previously applied to
the Fixed Account Option.

The Company has no specific formula for determining the rate(s) of interest that
it will declare. Generally, the rates We determine will reflect interest rates
available on the types of debt instruments in which We intend to invest the
amounts directed to the Fixed Account Option (See "Investments by the Company".)
In addition, the Company's

                                        7






management may also consider various other factors in determining interest rates
for a given period, including regulatory and tax requirements; sales commission
and administrative expenses borne by the Company; general economic trends; and
competitive factors. THE COMPANY'S MANAGEMENT WILL MAKE THE FINAL DETERMINATION
AS TO ANY DECLARED INTEREST RATES AND ANY INTEREST IN EXCESS OF THE MINIMUM
INTEREST RATE ALLOWED UNDER STATE LAW. THE COMPANY CANNOT PREDICT NOR GUARANTEE
THE RATES OF ANY FUTURE DECLARED INTEREST IN EXCESS OF THE MINIMUM RATE.

CASH VALUES

We will credit amounts held under the Fixed Account Option with interest. The
minimum Guaranteed Interest Rate will never be lower than the minimum rate
permitted under state law. Interest is credited daily. Purchase Payments (other
than the initial Purchase Payment) are allocated to the Fixed Account Option as
of the close of the business day on which We receive the Purchase Payment at the
Home Office. Therefore, Purchase Payments begin earning interest the day after
We receive the Purchase Payment in good order.

                                   SURRENDERS

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

GENERAL

Subject to the termination provisions described below, the Contract Owner may
request a full or partial surrender of Cash Values at any time from the Fixed
Account Option.

We may withhold payment of Cash Surrender Value or a Participant's loan proceeds
if any portion of those proceeds would be derived from a Contract Owner's check
that has not yet cleared (i.e., that could still be dishonored by Your banking
institution). We may use telephone, fax, internet or other means of
communication to verify that payment from the Contract Owner's check has been or
will be collected. We will not delay payment longer than necessary for Us to
verify that payment has been or will be collected. Contract Owners may avoid the
possibility of delay in the disbursement of proceeds coming from a check that
has not yet cleared by providing Us with a certified check.

PAYMENT OF FULL OR PARTIAL SURRENDERS

In the event of a partial surrender from the Fixed Account Option, We will pay
the requested value less any applicable sales charges. All partial surrenders
will be made on a last-in, first-out basis. If an allocated account is
surrendered for reasons other than Contract termination, We will pay the Cash
Value, less any outstanding loan surrenders not previously deducted, less any
Premium Tax, the administrative charge, and any sales charges, as applicable.
PLEASE CONSULT THE ACCOMPANYING VARIABLE ANNUITY CONTRACT PROSPECTUS FOR ANY
APPLICABLE SALES CHARGES.

CONTRACT TERMINATION

If the Contract is discontinued, no further Purchase Payments or transfers will
be allowed. On the date We receive a Written Request to terminate the Contract,
or within 31 days after We notify You of Our intent to terminate the Contract,
any amounts transferred from the Fixed Account Option to the Separate Account
Options during the 30 days before the date of discontinuance will be transferred
back to the Fixed Account Option.

If the Contract is discontinued because of Plan Termination due to the
dissolution or liquidation of the employer under US Code Title 11 procedures,
the Cash Surrender Value will be distributed directly to the employees entitled
to share in such distributions pursuant to the Plan. Distribution may be in the
form of cash payments, annuity options or deferred annuities. This provision
does not apply to Plans established under Section 457 of the Code.

MARKET VALUE ADJUSTMENT

The following discussion of Market Adjusted Values applies only to Contract
Owners who are not individuals.

If the Contract Owner requests a full surrender of the Contract or of all
Contract values held in the Fixed Account Option for reasons other than listed
above, or if the Company discontinues the Contract (in all states other than New
York and in New York, if issued prior to April 30, 2007), the Company will
determine the Market Adjusted Value of

                                        8






the Fixed Account Option. For Contracts issued in New York on or after April 30,
2007, We will pay the Contract Owner the Cash Value of the Fixed Account Option
if the Company discontinues the Contract. We are not applying the Market Value
Adjustment to the Unallocated Group Variable Annuity Contract.

The amount payable to the Contract Owner if a Contract is discontinued may be
increased or decreased by the application of the Market Value Adjustment
formula. The formula is the following:

Market Adjusted Value = Cash Value x (1 + RO)(5) /(1 + R1 + .0025)(5)

Where:

RO is the average interest rate credited to amounts in the Fixed Account Option
at the time of termination, and

R1 is the interest rate credited on new deposits for this class of contracts at
the time of termination.

FOR CONTRACTS ISSUED IN EVERY STATE EXCEPT NEW YORK:

If, as of the date of discontinuance, the Market Adjusted Value is less than the
Cash Value of the Fixed Account Option, the Contract Owner may select one of the
payment methods described below:

     1)   The Market Adjusted Value (less any applicable sales charge) in one
          lump sum within 60 days of the date of discontinuance, or

     2)   The Cash Surrender Value of the Fixed Account Option in installments
          over a 5-year period. The amount deducted on surrender, if any, is
          determined as of the date of discontinuance, and will apply to all
          installment payments. Interest will be credited to the remaining Cash
          Value of the Fixed Account Option during this installment period at a
          fixed effective annual interest rate of not less than the minimum rate
          permitted under state law. The first payment will be made no later
          than 60 days following the Contract Owner's request for surrender or
          Our written notification of Our intent to discontinue the Contract.
          The remaining payments will be mailed on each anniversary of the
          discontinuance for four years. During that period, no additional
          surrenders are allowed.

If, as of the date of discontinuance, the Market Adjusted Value is greater than
the Cash Value of the Fixed Account Option, the Contract Owner may select one of
the payment methods as described below:

     1)   The Cash Surrender Value of the Fixed Account Option, in one lump sum
          within 60 days of the date of discontinuance, or

     2)   The Cash Value of the Fixed Account Option in installments over a 5-
          year period. Interest will be credited to the remaining Cash Value of

ANNUITY PERIOD

We will normally make Annuity Payments within fifteen business days after We
receive a settlement claim, or any other later specified date. Subsequent
payments will be made periodically on the anniversaries of the first payment.

The variable annuity contract prospectus describes more fully the Annuity Period
and annuity options under the Contracts. Please note, however, that
annuitization is irrevocable; once fixed Annuity Payments have begun, the
annuity benefit cannot be surrendered for a lump sum settlement.

RESTRICTIONS ON FINANCIAL TRANSACTIONS

Federal laws designed to counter terrorism and prevent money laundering might,
in certain circumstances, require Us to block a Contract Owner's ability to make
certain transactions and thereby refuse to accept any request for transfers,
withdrawals, surrenders, or death benefits, until instructions are received from
the appropriate regulator. We may also be required to provide additional
information about You and Your Contract to government regulators.

MISSTATEMENT

We may require proof of age of the Contract Owner, Beneficiary or Annuitant
before making any payments under this Contract that are measured by the Contract
Owner's, Beneficiary's or Annuitant's life. If the age of the measuring life has
been misstated, the amount payable will be the amount that would have been
provided at the correct age.

Once Annuity Payments have begun, any underpayments or overpayments will be
deducted from or added to the payment or payments made after the adjustment. In
certain states, We are required to pay interest on any underpayments.

                                    TRANSFERS

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

No transfers are allowed between the Fixed Account Option and any Competing
Fund.

Where permitted by state law, We reserve the right to restrict transfers from
the Separate Account Options in a MetLife Retirement Account Contract into the
Fixed Account Option whenever the credited interest rate on the Fixed Account is
equal to the minimum Guaranteed Interest Rate specified under Your Contract.

The charges for transfers are described in the group variable annuity Contract
prospectus which accompanies this prospectus. No sales charges apply when a
transfer is made.

TRANSFERS FROM THE FIXED ACCOUNT

The Contract Owner may transfer amounts in the Fixed Account Option to one or
more of the Separate Account Options subject to the Competing Fund restrictions
described in Your Contract. All transfers will be made on a last-in, first-out
basis. That is, the money most recently deposited or transferred into the Fixed
Account Option will be transferred or surrendered first.

Amounts previously transferred from the Fixed Account Option to the Separate
Account Options may not be transferred back to the Fixed Account Option or any
Competing Fund for a period of at least 3 months from the date of the transfer.
The Company may eliminate this restriction in circumstances where Guaranteed
Interest Rates on the Fixed Account Option are declared and credited on a
quarterly basis.

We reserve the right to limit transfers from the Fixed Account in any calendar
year to 20% of the Contract/Certificate Cash Value in the Fixed Account Option
as of the end of the preceding Contract/Certificate year. (See also
"Surrenders.")

TRANSFERS TO THE FIXED ACCOUNT

METLIFE RETIREMENT ACCOUNT CONTRACTS

The Contract Owner may transfer amounts in the Separate Account Options to the
Fixed Account Option subject to the Competing Fund restrictions described in
Your Contract. In addition, amounts previously transferred from a Competing Fund
to a Separate Account Option which is not a Competing Fund may not be
transferred to the Fixed Account Option for a period of at least 3 months from
the date of transfer.

If the Contract Owner selects the optional death benefit and credit endorsement
under the Contract, the following additional restrictions apply:

     -    Purchase Payments allocated to a Separate Account Option which is not
          a Competing Fund may not be transferred to the Fixed Account for a
          period of at least 3 months from the date of the Purchase Payment.

     -    If a Purchase Payment has been made within the last five
          Contract/Certificate years, transfers from the Separate Account
          Options to the Fixed Account Option may not exceed 20% per year of the
          Contract/Certificate Value in the Separate Account Options on the
          Contract/Certificate anniversary.

                           INVESTMENTS BY THE COMPANY

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

We must invest Our assets according to applicable state laws regarding the
nature, quality and diversification of investments that may be made by life
insurance companies. In general, these laws permit investments, within specified
limits and subject to certain qualifications, in federal, state and municipal
obligations, corporate bonds, preferred and common stocks, real estate
mortgages, real estate and certain other investments. All General Account assets
of the Company would be available to meet the Company's guarantee under the
Fixed Account Option. The proceeds from the Fixed Account Option will become
part of the Company's general assets and are available to fund the claims of all
classes of customers of the Company.

In establishing Declared Interest Rates, the Company will consider the yields
available on the instruments in which it intends to invest the amounts directed
to the Fixed Account Option. The current investment strategy for the Contracts
is to invest in investment-grade fixed income securities, including public
bonds, privately placed bonds, and mortgages, some of which may be zero coupon
securities. While this generally describes our investment strategy, We are not
obligated to follow any particular strategy except as may be required by federal
and state laws.

                          DISTRIBUTION OF THE CONTRACTS

- --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

DISTRIBUTION AND PRINCIPAL UNDERWRITING AGREEMENT. The Company has appointed
MetLife Investors Distribution Company ("MLIDC") to serve as the principal
underwriter and distributor of the securities offered through this prospectus,
pursuant to the terms of a Distribution and Principal Underwriting Agreement.
MLIDC, which is an affiliate of the Company, also acts as the principal
underwriter and distributor of other annuity contracts and variable annuity
contracts and variable life insurance policies issued by the Company and its
affiliated companies. The Company reimburses MLIDC for expenses MLIDC incurs in
distributing the Contracts (e.g. commissions payable to retail broker-dealers
who sell the Contracts). MLIDC does not retain any fees under the Contracts.
MLIDC's principal executive offices are located at 5 Park Plaza, Suite 1900,
Irvine, CA 92614.

MLIDC is registered as a broker-dealer with the Securities and Exchange
Commission ("SEC") under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as well as the
securities commissions in the states in which it operates, and is a member of
the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority ("FINRA"). An investor brochure that
includes information describing

                                       12







FINRA's Public Disclosure Program is available by calling FINRA's Public
Disclosure Program hotline at 1-800-289-9999 or by visiting FINRA's website at
www.finra.org.


MLIDC and the Company enter into selling agreements with affiliated and
unaffiliated broker-dealers who are registered with the SEC and are members of
FINRA, and with entities that may offer the Contracts but are exempt from
registration. Applications for the Contract are solicited by registered
representatives who are associated persons of such affiliated or unaffiliated
broker-dealer firms. Such representatives act as appointed agents of the Company
under applicable state insurance law and must be licensed to sell variable
insurance products. The Company intends to offer the Contract in all
jurisdictions where it is licensed to do business and where the Contract is
approved. The Contracts are offered on a continuous basis.

COMPENSATION. Broker-dealers who have selling agreements with MLIDC and the
Company are paid compensation for the promotion and sale of the Contracts.
Registered representatives who solicit sales of the Contract typically receive a
portion of the compensation payable to the broker-dealer firm. The amount the
registered representative receives depends on the agreement between the firm and
the registered representative. This agreement may also provide for the payment
of other types of cash and non-cash compensation and other benefits. A broker-
dealer firm or registered representative of a firm may receive different
compensation for selling one product over another and/or may be inclined to
favor one product provider over another product provider due to differing
compensation rates.

We generally pay compensation as a percentage of Purchase Payments invested in
the Contract. Alternatively, We may pay lower compensation on Purchase Payments
but pay periodic asset-based compensation based on all or a portion of the
Contract Value. The amount and timing of compensation may vary depending on the
selling agreement but is not expected to exceed 10% of Purchase Payments(if up-
front compensation is paid to registered representatives)and up to 2% annually
of average Contract Value (if asset-based compensation is paid to registered
representatives).

The Company and MLIDC have also entered into preferred distribution arrangements
with certain broker-dealer firms. These arrangements are sometimes called "shelf
space" arrangements. Under these arrangements, the Company and MLIDC pay
separate, additional compensation to the broker-dealer firm for services the
broker-dealer provides in connection with the distribution of the Company's
products. These services may include providing the Company with access to the
distribution network of the broker-dealer, the hiring and training of the
broker-dealer's sales personnel, the sponsoring of conferences and seminars by
the broker-dealer, or general marketing services performed by the broker-dealer.
The broker-dealer may also provide other services or incur other costs in
connection with distributing the Company's products.

These preferred distribution arrangements will not be offered to all broker-
dealer firms and the terms of such arrangements may differ between broker-dealer
firms. Compensation payable under such arrangements may be based on aggregate,
net or anticipated sales of the Contracts, total assets attributable to sales of
the Contract by registered representatives of the broker-dealer firm or based on
the length of time that a Contract Owner has owned the Contract. Any such
compensation payable to a broker-dealer firm will be made by MLIDC or the
Company out of their own assets and will not result in any additional direct
charge to You. Such compensation may cause the broker-dealer firm and its
registered representatives to favor the Company's products. The Company and
MLIDC have entered into preferred distribution arrangements with their affiliate
Tower Square Securities, Inc. as well as with unaffiliated broker-dealer firms.
The Company may enter into similar arrangements with its other affiliates
MetLife Securities, Inc., Walnut Street Securities, Inc. and New England
Securities Corporation. A list of unaffiliated broker-dealer firms which have
entered into such arrangements is on Our website.

SALE OF THE CONTRACTS BY AFFILIATES OF THE COMPANY. The Company and MLIDC may
offer the Contracts through retail broker-dealer firms that are affiliates of
the Company, including Tower Square Securities, Inc., MetLife Securities, Inc.,
Walnut Street Securities, Inc. and New England Securities Corporation. The
compensation paid to affiliated broker-dealer firms for sales of the Contracts
is generally not expected to exceed, on a present value basis, the percentages
described above. These broker-dealer firms pay their registered representatives
all or a portion of the commissions received for their sales of Contracts; some
firms may retain a portion of commissions. The amount the broker-dealer firms
pass on to their registered representatives is determined in accordance with
their internal compensation programs. These programs may also include other
types of cash compensation, such as bonuses, equity awards (such as stock
options), training allowances, supplementary salary, financing arrangements,
marketing support, medical and other insurance benefits, retirement benefits,
non-qualified deferred compensation Contract Values, and other benefits. For
registered representatives of certain affiliates, the amount of this additional
cash

                                       13



compensation is based primarily on the amount of proprietary products sold and
serviced by the representative. Proprietary products are those issued by the
Company or its affiliates. The managers who supervise these registered
representatives may also be entitled to additional cash compensation based on
the sale of proprietary products by their representatives. Because the
additional cash compensation paid to these registered representatives and their
managers is primarily based on sales of proprietary products, these registered
representatives and their managers have an incentive to favor the sale of
proprietary products over other products issued by non-affiliates.

The Contracts are also sold through Metropolitan Life Insurance Company
("MetLife", an affiliate of the Company) licensed sales representatives who are
associated with MetLife Securities, Inc. MetLife registered representatives
receive cash payments for the products they sell and service based upon a 'gross
dealer concession' model. The cash payment is equal to a percentage of the gross
dealer concession. For MetLife registered representatives other than those in
Our MetLife Resources (MLR) Division, the percentage is determined by a formula
that takes into consideration the amount of premiums and Purchase Payments
applied to proprietary products that the registered representative sells and
services. The percentage could be as high as 100%. (MLR registered
representatives receive compensation based upon premiums and Purchase Payments
applied to all products sold and serviced by the representative.) In addition,
all MetLife registered representatives are entitled to the additional
compensation described above based on sales of proprietary products. Because
sales of proprietary products are a factor determining the percentage of gross
dealer concession and/or the amount of additional compensation to which MetLife
registered representatives are entitled, they have an incentive to favor the
sale of proprietary products. In addition, because their sales managers'
compensation is based on the sales made by the representatives they supervise,
these sales managers also have an incentive to favor the sale of proprietary
products.

The Company's affiliates also offer their registered representatives and their
managers non-cash compensation incentives, such as conferences, trips, prizes
and awards. Other non-cash compensation payments may be made for other services
that are not directly related to the sale of products. These payments may
include support services in the form of recruitment and training of personnel,
production of promotional materials and similar services.

From time to time MetLife pays organizations, associations, and nonprofit
organizations fees to endorse or sponsor MetLife's variable annuity contracts.
We may also obtain access to an organization's members to market Our variable
annuity contracts. These organizations are compensated for their endorsement or
sponsorship of Our variable annuity contracts in various ways. Primarily, they
receive a flat fee from MetLife. We also compensate these organizations by Our
funding of their programs, scholarships, events or awards, such as principal of
the year award. We may also lease their office space or pay fees for display
space at their events, purchase advertisements in their publications or
reimburse or defray their expenses. In some cases, We hire the organizations to
perform administrative services for Us, for which they are paid a fee based upon
a percentage of the account balances their members hold in the Contract. We also
retain finders and consultants to introduce MetLife to potential clients and for
establishing and maintaining relationships between MetLife and various
organizations. The finders and consultants are primarily paid flat fees and may
be reimbursed for their expenses. We or Our affiliates may also pay duly
licensed individuals associated with these organizations cash compensation for
the sales of the Contracts.

If You are a Participant in the Texas Optional Retirement Program, Texas law
permits Us to make withdrawals on Your behalf only if You die, retire or
terminate employment in all Texas institutions of higher education, as defined
under Texas law. Any withdrawal You ask for requires a written statement from
the appropriate Texas institution of higher education verifying Your vesting
status and (if applicable) termination of employment. Also, We require a written
statement from You that You are not transferring employment to another Texas
institution of higher education. If You retire or terminate employment in all
Texas institutions of higher education or die before being vested, amounts
provided by the state's matching contribution will be refunded to the
appropriate Texas institution. We may change these restrictions or add others
without Your consent to the extent necessary to maintain compliance with the
