ITEM 15. INDEMNIFICATION OF OFFICERS AND DIRECTORS.
Section 351.355(1) of the Revised Statutes of Missouri provides that a
corporation may indemnify a director, officer, employee or agent of the
corporation in any action, suit or proceeding other than an action by or in the
right of the corporation, against expenses (including attorney's fees),
judgments, fines and settlement amounts actually and reasonably incurred by him
in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if he acted in good faith and
in a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests
of the corporation and, with respect to any criminal action, had no reasonable
cause to believe his contact was unlawful. Section 351.355(2) provides that the
corporation may indemnify any such person in any action or suit by or in the
right of the corporation against expenses (including attorneys' fees) and
settlement amounts actually and reasonably incurred by him in connection with
the defense or settlement of the action or suit if he acted in good faith and in
a manner he reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of
the corporation, except that he may not be indemnified in respect of any matter
in which he has been adjudged liable for negligence or misconduct in the
performance of his duty to the corporation, unless authorized by the court.
Section 351.355(3) provides that a corporation may indemnify any such person
against expenses (including attorneys' fees) actually and reasonably incurred by
him in connection with the action, suit or proceeding if he has been successful
in defense of such action, suit or proceeding and if such action, suit or
proceeding is one for which the corporation may indemnify him under Section
351.355(1) or (2). Section 351.355(7) provides that a corporation shall have the
power to give any further indemnity to any such person, in addition to the
indemnity otherwise authorized under Section 351.355, provided such further
indemnity is either (i) authorized, directed or provided for in the articles of
incorporation of the corporation or any duly adopted amendment thereof or (ii)
is authorized, directed or provided for in any by-law or agreement of the
corporation which has been adopted by a vote of the stockholders of the
corporation, provided that no such indemnity shall indemnify any person from or
on account of such person's conduct which was finally adjudged to have been
knowingly fraudulent, deliberately dishonest or willful misconduct.
The Second Restated Articles of Incorporation of RGA filed as Exhibit 3.1
to this Registration Statement contain provisions indemnifying its directors,
officers, employees and agents to the extent authorized specifically by Sections
351.355(1), (2) (3) and (7). RGA has entered into indemnification contracts with
the officers and directors of RGA. The contracts provide that RGA under certain
circumstances may self-insure against directors' and officers' liabilities now
insured under the policy of insurance
II-1
referred to below and will provide indemnity to the fullest extent permitted by
law against all expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and
settlement amounts, paid or incurred in any action or proceeding, including any
act on behalf of RGA, on account of their service as a director or officer of
RGA, any subsidiary of RGA or any other company or enterprise when they are
serving in such capacities at the request of RGA, excepting only cases where the
conduct of such person is adjudged to be knowingly fraudulent, deliberately
dishonest or willful misconduct.
Directors or officers of RGA who are directors or officers of MetLife or
its affiliates may also be entitled to indemnification pursuant to the charter
documents of such companies or under the provisions of agreements with such
companies providing indemnification to them since they serve as directors or
officers of RGA at the request of MetLife or its affiliates, as the case may be.
Such individuals may also be covered by directors' and officers' liability
insurance policies of MetLife or its affiliates, as the case may be.
The forms of Underwriting Agreement to be filed as Exhibits 1.1 to 1.6 to
this Registration Statement will provide for the mutual indemnification of RGA
and any Underwriters, their respective controlling persons, directors and
certain of their officers, against certain liabilities, including liabilities
under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.
Metropolitan Life Insurance Company, an affiliate of MetLife, Inc.
maintains a policy of insurance under which the directors and officers of RGA
are insured, subject to the limits of the policy, against certain losses, as
defined in the policy, arising from claims made against such directors and
officers by reason of any wrongful acts, as defined in the policy, in their
respective capacities as directors or officers.
Under the amended and restated trust agreement of each trust, RGA will
agree to indemnify each of the administrative trustee of such trust (or any
predecessor trustee for such trust), and to hold harmless such administrative
trustee against any loss, damage, claims, liability or expense incurred without
negligence or bad faith on its part arising out of or in connection with the
acceptance or administration of such trust agreement, including the costs and
expenses of defending itself against any claim or liability in connection with
the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties under such trust
agreement.

ITEM 17. UNDERTAKINGS.
(a) The undersigned registrants hereby undertake:
(1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being
made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:
(i) To include any prospectus required by section 10(a)(3) of the
Securities Act of 1933;
(ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after
the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent
post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the
aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth
in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any
increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total
dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was
registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated
maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed
with the Securities Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in
the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a
20 percent change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in
the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective
registration statement;
(iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan
of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement
or any material change to such information in the registration
statement;
provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) do not apply if the
registration statement is on Form S-3, Form S-8 or Form F-3, and the information
required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is
contained in periodic reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
by the registrants pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934 that are incorporated by reference in the registration
statement.
(2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the
Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed
to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered
therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed
to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment
any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the
termination of the offering.
(b) The undersigned registrants hereby undertake that, for purposes of
determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of
Reinsurance Group of America, Incorporated's annual report pursuant to Section
13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 that is
incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a
new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the
offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona
fide offering thereof.
II-4
(c) Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities
Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of
the registrants pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the
registrants have been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange
Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in said
Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for
indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the
registrants of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling
person of the registrants in the successful defense of any action, suit or
proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in
connection with the securities being registered, the registrants will, unless in
the opinion of their respective counsel the matter has been settled by
controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the
question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as
expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such
issue.
(d) If the securities registered are to be offered at competitive bidding,
the undersigned registrants hereby undertake: (1) to use their respective best
efforts to distribute prior to the opening of bids, to prospective bidders,
underwriters, and dealers, a reasonable number of copies of a prospectus which
at that time meets the requirements of Section 10(a) of the Act, and relating to
the securities offered at competitive bidding, as contained in the registration
statement, together with any supplements thereto, and (2) to file an amendment
to the registration statement reflecting the results of bidding, the terms of
the reoffering and related matters to the extent required by the applicable
form, not later than the first use, authorized by the issuer after the opening
of bids, of a prospectus relating to the securities offered at competitive
bidding, unless no further public offering of such securities by the issuer and
no reoffering of such securities by the purchasers is proposed to be made.
(e) The undersigned registrants hereby undertake:
(1) That for purposes of determining any liability under the
Securities Act of 1933, the information omitted from the form of prospectus
filed as part of this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and
contained in a form of prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule
424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be
part of this registration statement as of the time it was declared
effective.
(2) That for the purpose of determining any liability under the
Securities Act of 1933, each post-effective amendment that contains a form
of prospectus shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating
to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at
that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(f) The undersigned registrants hereby undertake to file an application for
the purpose of determining the eligibility of the trustee under subsection (a)
of Section 310 of the Trust Indenture Act (the "Act") in accordance with the
rules and regulations prescribed by the Commission under Section 305(b)(2) of
the Act.
