SCHEDULE 13D CUSIP No. 759351109 This Statement relates to the common stock, par value $.01 per share (the "Shares"), of Reinsurance Group of America, Incorporated, a Missouri corporation ("RGA"). This Statement amends the Schedule 13D Statement of MetLife, Inc. ("MLINC"), Metropolitan Life Insurance Company ("MetLife"), GenAmerica Financial Corporation ("GenAmerica"), General American Life Insurance Company ("GenAm Life") and Equity Intermediary Company ("EIM") (MLIC, MetLife, GenAmerica, GenAm Life and EIM, collectively, the "Filing Parties") in respect of RGA by amending and restating Items 3 and 4 in their entirety, as follows: Item 3. Source and Amount of Funds or other Consideration. MLINC and its affiliates will use working capital to purchase additional Shares of RGA, as described in Item 4 below. Item 4. Purpose of Transaction. As announced on January 30, 2002, MLINC and its affiliates presently intend to purchase up to an aggregate of $125 million of additional Shares of common stock of RGA. The purchases are intended to offset potential future dilution of the Filing Parties' holdings of RGA Shares arising from the issuance of Preferred Income Equity Redeemable Securities (PIERS)* by RGA on December 10, 2001. Purchases of RGA Shares may be made in the open market and through privately-negotiated transactions. The timing of the purchases will be dependent upon market conditions and other corporate considerations. The plan to purchase additional Shares of RGA may be modified, extended or terminated by MLINC and its affiliates at any time. At a meeting of the RGA Board of Directors held on January 23, 2002, Stewart G. Nagler, Vice-Chairman and Chief Financial Officer of MLINC, was elected as Chairman of the Board of RGA. At the same meeting, Joseph A. Reali, Senior Vice-President and Tax Director of MLINC, was elected as a member of the Board of Directors of RGA, replacing John H. Tweedie, who retired from MLINC and the Board of Directors of RGA on December 31, 2001. Except as set forth herein, the Filing Persons have no present plans or proposals which relate to or would result in any of the following: (a) The acquisition of additional securities or the disposition of securities of RGA; (b) An extraordinary corporate transaction, such as a merger, reorganization or liquidation, involving RGA or any of its subsidiaries; (c) A sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of RGA or of any of its subsidiaries; (d) Any change in the present board of directors or management of RGA, including any plans or proposals to change the number or term of directors or to fill any existing vacancies on the board of directors; (e) Any material change in the present capitalization or dividend policy of RGA; (f) Any other material change in RGA's business or corporate structure; (g) Changes in RGA's charter, bylaws or instruments corresponding thereto or other actions which may impede the acquisition of control of RGA by any person; (h) Causing a class of securities of RGA to be delisted from a national securities exchange or to cease to be authorized to be quoted in an inter-dealer quotation system of a registered national securities association; (i) A class of equity securities of RGA becoming eligible for termination of registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Act; or - ---------- * "Preferred Income Equity Redeemable Securities"(SM) and "PIERS"(SM) are service marks owned by Lehman Brothers Inc.
