REINSURANCE GROUP OF AMERICA, INCORPORATED AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (UNAUDITED) 1. BASIS OF PRESENTATION The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Reinsurance Group of America, Incorporated ("RGA") and Subsidiaries (collectively, the "Company") have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring accruals, considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the six-month period ended June 30, 2002 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2002. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001 ("Annual Report"). The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Reinsurance Group of America, Incorporated and its Subsidiaries. All material intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated. The Company has reclassified the presentation of certain prior period information to conform to the 2002 presentation. 2. EARNINGS PER SHARE The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share on income from continuing operations (in thousands, except per share information): THREE MONTHS ENDED SIX MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, JUNE 30, ---------------------- ---------------------- 2002 2001 2002 2001 ------- ------- ------- ------- Earnings: Income from continuing operations (numerator for basic and diluted calculations) $28,924 $30,514 $57,960 $52,156 Shares: Weighted average outstanding shares (denominator for basic calculation) 49,304 49,402 49,362 49,371 Equivalent shares from outstanding stock options 365 559 341 552 ------- ------- ------- ------- Denominator for diluted calculation 49,669 49,961 49,703 49,923 Earnings per share: Basic $ 0.59 $ 0.62 $ 1.17 $ 1.06 Diluted $ 0.58 $ 0.61 $ 1.17 $ 1.04 ======= ======= ======= ======= The calculation of equivalent shares from outstanding stock options does not include the impact of options having a strike price that exceeds the average stock price for the earnings period, as the result would be antidilutive. For the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2002, approximately 0.9 million in outstanding stock options were not included in the calculation of common equivalent shares. For the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2001, approximately 0.1 million in outstanding stock options were not included in the calculation of common equivalent shares. These options were outstanding at the end of their respective periods. Additionally, outstanding warrants to purchase Company common stock under certain circumstances were antidilutive to the calculation of earnings per share. 3. COMPREHENSIVE INCOME (LOSS) The following schedule reflects the change in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) for the three and six-month periods ended June 30, 2002 and 2001 (dollars in thousands): 6

THREE MONTHS ENDED SIX MONTHS ENDED ------------------------------ --------------------------------- JUNE 30, 2002 JUNE 30, 2001 JUNE 30, 2002 JUNE 30, 2001 ------------- ------------- ------------- ------------- Net income $ 28,051 $ 30,514 $ 55,831 $ 52,156 Accumulated other comprehensive income (expense), net of income taxes: Unrealized gains (losses) on securities 52,731 (29,046) 6,943 (18,351) Foreign currency items 13,364 8,967 29,899 (4,966) -------- -------- -------- -------- Comprehensive income $ 94,146 $ 10,435 $ 92,673 $ 28,839 ======== ======== ======== ======== 4. SEGMENT INFORMATION The accounting policies of the segments are the same as those described in the Summary of Significant Accounting Policies in Note 2 of the Annual Report. The Asia Pacific, Latin America and Europe & South Africa operational segments are presented herein as one reportable segment, Other International. The Company measures segment performance based on profit or loss from operations before income taxes. There are no intersegment transactions and the Company does not have any material long-lived assets. Investment income is allocated to the segments based upon average assets and related capital levels deemed appropriate to support the segment business volumes. Due to the economic uncertainty in Argentina and losses associated with Argentine privatized pension business, the Company has scaled back its operations in Latin America. Reinsurance of the Argentine pension business is conducted through the Company's principal operating subsidiary based in Missouri. The Company's reportable segments are strategic business units that are segregated by geographic region. Information related to total revenues and income from continuing operations before income taxes are summarized below (dollars in thousands). THREE MONTHS ENDED SIX MONTHS ENDED -------------------------------- ---------------------------------- JUNE 30, 2002 JUNE 30, 2001 JUNE 30, 2002 JUNE 30, 2001 ------------- ------------- ------------- ------------- REVENUES U.S $ 400,702 $ 335,202 $ 811,409 $ 702,330 Canada 61,766 62,539 123,794 126,612 Other International 90,010 67,809 171,956 129,083 Corporate 4,831 (23) 10,362 1,157 ----------- ----------- ----------- ----------- Total from continuing operations $ 557,309 $ 465,527 $ 1,117,521 $ 959,182 =========== =========== =========== =========== INCOME (LOSS) FROM CONTINUING OPERATIONS BEFORE INCOME TAXES U.S $ 38,729 $ 43,857 $ 77,502 $ 74,129 Canada 9,905 14,994 18,750 32,143 Other International 3,058 (1,325) 5,403 (5,966) Corporate (6,627) (7,388) (11,399) (14,486) ----------- ----------- ----------- ----------- Total from continuing operations $ 45,065 $ 50,138 90,256 $ 85,820 =========== =========== =========== =========== Other International assets increased approximately 24% from the amounts disclosed in Note 18 of the Annual Report. This increase was primarily related to growth in the Europe & South Africa and Asia Pacific sub-segments offset by a decrease in allocated assets required to support the Argentine pension business as a result of the devaluation of the Argentine peso. Assets for the U.S. and Canada segments have not changed by more than 10% since year end. 5. DIVIDENDS The board of directors declared a dividend of six cents per share of common stock on April 24, 2002. This dividend was paid on May 28, 2002 to shareholders of record as of May 7, 2002. 7

6. STOCK TRANSACTIONS Under a plan approved by the board of directors, the Company may purchase up to $50 million of its shares of stock on the open market as conditions warrant. During the three months ended March 31, 2002, the Company purchased 225,500 shares of treasury stock at an aggregate cost of $6.6 million. No shares were repurchased during the three months ended June 30, 2002. The Company generally uses treasury shares to support the future exercise of options granted under its stock option plan. 7. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES From time to time, the Company is subject to litigation and arbitration related to its reinsurance business and to employment-related matters in the normal course of its business. The Company is currently a party to arbitrations that involve three separate medical reinsurance arrangements, three arbitrations relative to the Company's portfolio of personal accident business, one lawsuit seeking to enforce an arbitration award relating to a medical reinsurance arrangement, and one lawsuit involving aviation bodily injury carve-out reinsurance coverage. Currently, the ceding companies involved in these disputes have raised claims that are $39.5 million in excess of the amounts held as a liability by the Company. The Company believes it has substantial defenses upon which to contest these claims, including but not limited to misrepresentation and breach of contract by direct and indirect ceding companies. See Note 22 of the Annual Report for more information. While it is not feasible to predict the outcome of the pending arbitrations or legal proceedings or provide reasonable ranges of potential losses, it is the opinion of management that their outcomes after consideration of the provisions made in the Company's consolidated financial statements would not have a material adverse effect on its consolidated financial position. However, the impact on the Company's results of operations in any particular future period could be material. The Company has obtained letters of credit in favor of various affiliated and unaffiliated insurance companies from which the Company assumes business. This allows the ceding company to take statutory reserve credits. The letters of credit issued by banks represent a guarantee of performance under the reinsurance agreements. Additionally, the Company utilizes letters of credit to secure reserve credits when it retrocedes business to its offshore subsidiaries. As of June 30, 2002, there were approximately $37.9 million of outstanding letters of credit in favor of unaffiliated entities and $323.7 million in favor of entities affiliated with the Company. Fees associated with letters of credit are not fixed and are based on the Company's ratings and the general availability of these instruments in the marketplace. The letters of credit are for a term of one year and renew automatically unless the issuing financial institution notifies the Company of its intent not to renew at least 30 days prior to their expiration. 8. NEW ACCOUNTING STANDARDS In June 2002, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 146, "Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit or Disposal Activities." Under SFAS No. 146, costs associated with an exit or disposal activity shall be recognized at fair value in the period in which the liability is incurred rather than at the date of a commitment to an exit or disposal plan. The provisions of the statement will be effective for exit or disposal activities that are initiated after December 31, 2002. The Company is currently evaluating whether the impact of the statement will have a material effect on earnings. In July 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141, "Business Combinations" and SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets." SFAS No. 141 requires business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001 to be accounted for using the purchase method of accounting, and broadens the criteria for recording intangible assets separate from goodwill. SFAS No. 142 requires the use of a non-amortization approach to account for purchased goodwill and certain intangibles. Under a non-amortization approach, goodwill and certain intangibles are not amortized into results of operations, but instead are reviewed for impairment and written down and charged to results of operations only in the periods in which the recorded value of goodwill and certain intangibles is more than its fair value. During the first quarter of 2002, the company completed the transitional impairment test of goodwill. The results of the impairment test did not have a material impact to the Company's results of operations. During the six months ended June 30, 2002, there were no changes to goodwill as a result of acquisitions or disposals. Goodwill as of June 30, 2002 totaled $7.0 million and was related to the Company's purchase of RGA Financial Group in 2000. Goodwill amortization in the comparable prior-year period was not material to the Company's results of operations. 8

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS The Company has five main operational segments segregated primarily by geographic region: U.S., Canada, Latin America, Asia Pacific, and Europe & South Africa operations. The Asia Pacific, Latin America, and Europe & South Africa operational segments are presented herein as one reportable segment, Other International. The U.S. operations provide traditional life, asset-intensive, and financial reinsurance to domestic clients. Asset-intensive products primarily include reinsurance of corporate-owned and bank-owned life insurance and annuities. The Canada operations provide insurers with traditional reinsurance as well as creditor and critical illness products. The Latin America operations include traditional reinsurance, reinsurance of privatized pension products primarily in Argentina, which the Company ceased writing during 2001, and direct life insurance through a subsidiary in Argentina. Asia Pacific operations provide primarily traditional life and critical illness reinsurance and, to a lesser extent, financial reinsurance. Europe & South Africa operations include traditional life and critical illness business from Europe and South Africa, in addition to other markets being developed by the Company. The operational segment results do not include the corporate investment activity, general corporate expenses, interest expense of RGA, and the provision for income tax expense (benefit). In addition, the Company's discontinued accident and health operations are not reflected in the continuing operations of the Company. The Company measures segment performance based on profit or loss from operations before income taxes. A variety of new laws and regulatory initiatives have been introduced recently that have changed or will change the reporting practices of public companies. One such initiative was the announcement by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") that it would review the annual reports on Form 10-K submitted by all Fortune 500 companies in 2002. As a result, the SEC reviewed the annual report on Form 10-K of MetLife, Inc. ("MetLife") for the year ended December 31, 2001. MetLife and certain affiliates beneficially own approximately 59% of the Company's outstanding shares. Accordingly, the Company's results are included in the consolidated financial statements of MetLife. MetLife received correspondence from the SEC in connection with this review in July 2002. MetLife has responded, on a timely basis, to all of the SEC's comments and expects all matters to be resolved in the near future. One of the items still pending is related to "funds withheld at interest" on certain types of modified coinsurance reinsurance contracts to which the Company is a party. The comment relates to whether the Company's reporting for these contracts considered the existence of embedded derivatives. While MetLife believes that it has been responsive to the SEC's comments, there can be no assurance that the SEC will not have further comments or request additional information. Consolidated income from continuing operations before income taxes decreased $5.1 million for the second quarter and increased $4.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2002, as compared to the respective prior-year periods. After-tax diluted earnings per share from continuing operations were $0.58 and $1.17 for the second quarter and first six months of 2002, respectively, compared to $0.61 and $1.04 for the prior-year periods. Consolidated investment income from continuing operations increased 18.3% and 11.2% during the second quarter and first six months of 2002, respectively. The increase was primarily attributable to a larger invested asset base due to funds received from the issuance of Preferred Income Equity Redeemable Securities ("PIERS") units in December of 2001 and normal cash flows from operations offset slightly by a lower yield. The average invested asset book yield earned on investments was 6.68% for the second quarter of 2002 compared to 7.16% for the comparable prior-year period. The decrease in overall yield reflected declining interest rates and a rise in defaults on fixed maturity securities. Investment income is allocated to the segments based upon average assets and related capital levels deemed appropriate to support the segment business volumes. Consolidated other expenses include general corporate expenses that are not allocated to the operational segments. The consolidated provision for income taxes on continuing operations decreased 17.7% and 4.1% for the second quarter and first six months of 2002, respectively, primarily a result of a decrease in the effective tax-rate in both periods and lower pre-tax income for the second quarter. The effective tax rate was 35.8% for both the second quarter and first six months of 2002, compared to 39.1% and 39.2% for the comparable prior-year periods. The decrease in the effective tax rate was primarily due to a reduction of the Canadian income tax rate and earnings in certain foreign subsidiaries, which resulted in a release of valuation allowances in those entities.

FOR THE SIX MONTH PERIOD ENDED JUNE 30, 2002 -------------------------------------------------------------- NON-TRADITIONAL --------------------------- ASSET- FINANCIAL TOTAL TRADITIONAL INTENSIVE REINSURANCE U.S. ----------- --------- ----------- --------- REVENUES: Net premiums $ 678,018 $ 1,993 $ -- $ 680,011 Investment income, net of related expenses 75,963 46,448 127 122,538 Realized investment losses, net (2,984) (3,960) -- (6,944) Other revenues 780 3,169 11,855 15,804 --------- --------- --------- --------- Total revenues 751,777 47,650 11,982 811,409 BENEFITS AND EXPENSES: Claims and other policy benefits 550,573 7,716 -- 558,289 Interest credited 27,639 28,811 -- 56,450 Policy acquisition costs and other insurance expenses 92,168 6,429 3,838 102,435 Other operating expenses 11,955 386 4,392 16,733 --------- --------- --------- --------- Total benefits and expenses 682,335 43,342 8,230 733,907 Income before income taxes $ 69,442 $ 4,308 $ 3,752 $ 77,502 ========= ========= ========= ========= FOR THE SIX MONTH PERIOD ENDED JUNE 30, 2001 -------------------------------------------------------------- NON-TRADITIONAL --------------------------- ASSET- FINANCIAL TOTAL TRADITIONAL INTENSIVE REINSURANCE U.S. ----------- --------- ----------- --------- REVENUES: Net premiums $ 584,866 $ 1,388 $ -- $ 586,254 Investment income, net of related expenses 74,083 36,708 394 111,185 Realized investment gains (losses), net (10,347) 846 -- (9,501) Other revenues 504 1,370 12,518 14,392 --------- --------- --------- --------- Total revenues 649,106 40,312 12,912 702,330 BENEFITS AND EXPENSES: Claims and other policy benefits 463,541 3,868 -- 467,409 Interest credited 25,258 20,745 -- 46,003 Policy acquisition costs and other insurance expenses 83,151 8,022 5,265 96,438 Other operating expenses 13,904 283 4,164 18,351 --------- --------- --------- --------- Total benefits and expenses 585,854 32,918 9,429 628,201 Income before income taxes $ 63,252 $ 7,394 $ 3,483 $ 74,129 ========= ========= ========= ========= Income before income taxes for the U.S. operations segment totaled $38.7 million and $77.5 million for the second quarter and first six months of 2002, respectively, a decrease of 11.7% and an increase of 4.6% from the comparable prior-year periods. The decrease in income during the second quarter of 2002 compared to the prior-year period can be primarily attributed to higher claims and other policy benefits as a percentage of premiums. The increase in income for the first six months can primarily be attributed to premium growth somewhat offset by higher than expected death claims on certain inforce blocks of business, and a $2.6 million decrease in realized losses on securities transactions compared to the same period last year. Net premium growth for the U.S. operations segment remained strong with a 19.4% and 16.0% increase in the second quarter and first six months of 2002, respectively, compared to the same periods last year. 11

Traditional Reinsurance The U.S. traditional reinsurance is the oldest and largest sub-segment of the Company. This sub-segment provides life reinsurance to domestic clients for a variety of life products through yearly renewable term agreements, coinsurance, and modified coinsurance arrangements. These reinsurance arrangements may be either facultative or automatic agreements. During the second quarter and first six months of 2002, production totaled $37.7 billion and $74.2 billion, respectively, compared to $21.5 billion and $39.2 billion for the same face amount of new business periods in 2001. The strong growth in production was realized on both new and existing treaties. Management believes industry consolidation, demutualizations, and the trend towards reinsuring mortality risks should continue to provide reinsurance opportunities, although the timing and level of production is uncertain. Income before income taxes for U.S. traditional reinsurance remained the same and increased 9.8% for the second quarter and six months ended 2002, respectively. The increase in income for the first six months of 2002 was primarily due to a decrease in realized losses on investment securities of $7.4 million for comparable periods. Net premiums for U.S. traditional reinsurance increased 19.5% and 15.9% in the second quarter and first six months of 2002, respectively. New premiums from facultative and automatic treaties and renewal premiums on existing blocks of business all contributed to continued growth. Net investment income increased 4.7% and 2.5% for the second quarter and first six months of 2002, respectively. The increase was due to the growth in the invested asset base, primarily due to increased operating cash flows on traditional reinsurance, which was partially offset by the lower yields as a result of the general decline in interest rates. The amount of claims and other policy benefits increased 23.6% and 18.8% in the second quarter and first six months of 2002, respectively. Claims and other policy benefits, as a percentage of net premiums, were 79.2% and 81.2% in the second quarter and first six months of 2002, respectively, compared to 76.6% and 79.3% for the same periods in 2001. The increase in claims as a percentage of premiums relates primarily to higher claims on certain inforce blocks of business. The level of death claims may fluctuate from period to period, but exhibits less volatility over the long term. Interest credited relates to amounts credited on the Company's cash value products in this sub-segment, which have a significant mortality component. This amount fluctuates with the changes in deposit levels, cash surrender values and investment performance. As a percentage of net premiums, policy acquisition costs and other insurance expenses were 15.4% and 13.6% for the second quarter and first six months of 2002, respectively, compared to 14.6% and 14.2% for the same periods in 2001. This percentage fluctuates due to variations in the mixture of business being written. Asset-Intensive Reinsurance The U.S. asset-intensive reinsurance sub-segment includes the reinsurance of annuities and corporate-owned and bank-owned life insurance. Most of these agreements are coinsurance or modified coinsurance of non-mortality risks such that the Company recognizes profit or losses primarily from the spread between the investment earnings and interest credited on the underlying deposit liabilities. Income before income taxes for the second quarter and first six months of 2002 decreased to $0.6 million and $4.3 million, respectively, as compared to $5.1 million and $7.4 million in the prior periods. The decrease was primarily the result of the increase in realized losses on investment securities of $5.1 million and $4.8 million in the second quarter and first six months of 2002. Total revenues, which are comprised primarily of investment income, increased 28.3% and 18.2% in the second quarter and first six months of 2002, respectively. Contributing to the growth in revenues were new single premium deferred annuity coinsurance treaties during the third quarter of 2001 and the first quarter of 2002, partially offset by the increase in realized losses on investment securities. Assets outstanding as of June 30, 2002 and 2001 were $1.7 12

billion and $1.3 billion, respectively. Average invested assets outstanding for this sub-segment increased by $357.6 million and $291.3 million for the second quarter and first six months of 2002, respectively, compared to the comparable prior-year periods. Total benefits and expenses, which includes interest credited and policy acquisition costs and other insurance expenses, increased 76.8% and 31.7% in the second quarter and first six months of 2002, respectively. Contributing to the increase in expenses is the additional interest credited on contract liabilities related to the new single premium deferred annuity coinsurance treaties during the third quarter of 2001 and the first quarter of 2002. The Company performs periodic tests to determine that deferred policy acquisition costs remain recoverable, and if necessary, the cumulative amortization is re-estimated and adjusted by a cumulative charge or credit to current operations. To the extent the Company reduces its expectations of gross margins on certain business due to emerging experience on lapses, investment performance or other factors, a negative adjustment to deferred acquisition costs would be necessary. Financial Reinsurance The U.S. financial reinsurance sub-segment includes net fees earned on financial reinsurance agreements and the Company's investment in RGA Financial Group L.L.C. ("RGA Financial Group"). Financial reinsurance agreements represent low mortality risk business that the Company assumes and generally subsequently retrocedes with a net fee earned on the transaction. The fees earned from the assumption of the financial reinsurance contracts are reflected in other revenues, and the fees paid to retrocessionaires are reflected in policy acquisition costs and other insurance expenses. Income before income taxes was $1.3 million and $3.8 million in the second quarter and first six months of 2002, respectively, as compared to $2.0 million and $3.5 million in the prior-year periods. The decrease over the prior quarter can be attributed to higher operating expenses resulting from an increase in allocated expenses and the timing of when fees are earned based on the completion of new financial reinsurance treaties. The increase over the prior year can be attributed to higher amounts of financial reinsurance outstanding during the respective periods. 13

CANADA OPERATIONS (dollars in thousands) THREE MONTHS ENDED SIX MONTHS ENDED -------------------------------- ------------------------------- JUNE 30, 2002 JUNE 30, 2001 JUNE 30, 2002 JUNE 30, 2001 ------------- ------------- ------------- ------------- REVENUES: Net premiums $ 44,144 $ 44,148 $ 90,677 $ 86,714 Investment income, net of related expenses 17,776 15,651 33,381 31,297 Realized investment gains (losses), net (105) 2,902 (186) 8,516 Other revenues (49) (162) (78) 85 --------- --------- --------- --------- Total revenues 61,766 62,539 123,794 126,612 BENEFITS AND EXPENSES: Claims and other policy benefits 45,103 41,888 90,826 83,095 Interest credited 388 72 388 179 Policy acquisition costs and other insurance expenses 4,045 3,368 9,262 6,854 Other operating expenses 2,325 2,217 4,568 4,341 --------- --------- --------- --------- Total benefits and expenses 51,861 47,545 105,044 94,469 Income before income taxes $ 9,905 $ 14,994 $ 18,750 $ 32,143 ========= ========= ========= ========= Income before income taxes decreased by 33.9% and 41.7% in the second quarter and first six months of 2002, respectively. Excluding realized investment gains (losses), income before income taxes was $10.0 million and $18.9 million in the second quarter and first six months of 2002, respectively, compared to $12.1 million and $23.6 million in the prior-year periods. The decrease in pre-tax income excluding realized investment gains and losses reflects favorable mortality in the previous year as well as unfavorable mortality experience in the current year. Net premiums remained flat and increased 4.6% in the second quarter and first six months of 2002, respectively. The year to date increase is primarily the result of current-year production offset by a decrease in creditor premiums as prescribed by treaty parameters. Premium levels are significantly influenced by large transactions and reporting practices of ceding companies and therefore can fluctuate from period to period. Net investment income increased 13.6% and 6.7% in the second quarter and first six months of 2002, respectively. The increase is due to an increase in the invested asset base. The invested asset base growth is due to operating cash flows on traditional reinsurance, proceeds from capital contributions made to the segment, and interest on the growth of funds withheld at interest. Claims and other policy benefits increased by 7.7% and 9.3% during the second quarter and first six months of 2002, respectively. Claims and other policy benefits as a percentage of net premiums were 102.2% and 100.2% in the second quarter and first six months of 2002, respectively, compared to 94.9% and 95.8% in the prior-year periods. The higher percentages are a reflection of a change in the mix of business and favorable mortality in the prior year. The level of death claims may fluctuate from period to period, but exhibits less volatility over the long term. Policy acquisition costs and other insurance expenses as a percentage of net premiums totaled 9.2% and 10.2% for the second quarter and first six months of 2002, respectively, compared to 7.6% and 7.9% in the prior-year periods. The increase is primarily due to the mix of business in the segment, which varies from period to period, primarily due to new production. 14

Net premiums increased 37.3% and 37.6% during the second quarter and first six months of 2002, respectively. The increase was primarily the result of renewal premiums from existing blocks of business, new business premiums from facultative and automatic treaties, and premiums associated with accelerated critical illness coverage in Asia Pacific and Europe & South Africa. Accelerated critical illness coverage provides a benefit in the event of a death from or 16

the diagnosis of a defined critical illness. Premiums earned during the second quarter and first six months of 2002 from this coverage totaled $27.4 million and $46.7 million, respectively, compared to $9.4 million and $13.9 million in the prior-year periods. The overall increase was partially offset by the exit from the privatized pension business in 2001 and declining sales of direct insurance in Argentina. Premium levels are significantly influenced by large transactions and reporting practices of ceding companies and therefore can fluctuate from period to period. Net investment income decreased 53.0% and 35.2% in the second quarter and first six months of 2002, respectively. The decrease is primarily due to a decrease in allocated assets required to support the Argentine pension business as a result of the devaluation of the Argentine peso. Investment income is allocated to the segments based upon average assets and related capital levels deemed appropriate to support the segment business volumes. The amount of claims and other policy benefits increased 21.9% and 18.1% in the second quarter and first six months of 2002. The increase is due primarily to overall increased business volume for the segment. Claims and other policy benefits, as a percentage of net premiums, were 64.3% and 64.4% in the second quarter and first six months of 2002, respectively, compared to 72.4% and 75.0% in the prior-year period. For the Latin America sub-segment, the amount of claims and other policy benefits decreased 95.6% and 90.6% in the second quarter and first six months of 2002 due primarily to decreased business volume and recognition of transaction gains on settlement of privatized pension claims. During 2001, the Company ceased renewal of reinsurance treaties associated with privatized pension contracts in Argentina because of adverse experience on this business, as several aspects of the pension fund claims flow did not develop as was contemplated when the reinsurance programs were initially priced, and in order to focus on other traditional opportunities in the region. Although premiums will continue to decline, it is estimated that claims for the privatized pension business will continue to be paid over the next several years. As the underlying reserves for the privatized pension business are in Argentine pesos, the functional currency of this sub-segment, the devaluation of the peso during 2002 is not expected to have an impact on earnings until actual claims settlement or adjustment to the underlying peso-denominated reserves occur. Transaction gains/losses on the claims settlements are included in the claims and other policy benefits total. The impact of fluctuating exchange rates will continue to be closely monitored by the Company's management and is expected to be volatile over the near term. Claims and other policy benefits include claims paid, claims in the course of payment and establishment of additional reserves to provide for unreported claims. The level of claims may fluctuate from period to period, but exhibits less volatility over the long term. The Company monitors mortality claims trends to evaluate the appropriateness of reserve levels and adjusts the reserve levels on a periodic basis. Policy acquisition costs and other insurance expenses as a percentage of net premiums were 26.6% and 27.3% in the second quarter and first six months of 2002, respectively, compared to 25.7% and 25.2% in 2001. These percentages fluctuate due to the timing of client company reporting and variations in the mixture of business being written. Other operating expenses remained fairly constant between periods. As a percentage of premiums, other operating expenses decreased to 8.9% and 9.2% in the second quarter and first six months of 2002, respectively, from 10.9% and 12.0% in the comparable prior-year periods. The Company believes that sustained growth in premiums should lessen the burden of start-up expenses and expansion costs over time. CORPORATE AND OTHER SELECTED CONSOLIDATED INFORMATION Corporate activity generally represents investment income on invested assets not allocated to support segment operations, undeployed proceeds from the Company's capital raising efforts, unallocated realized capital gains or losses, corporate expenses that include unallocated overhead and executive costs, and interest expense related to debt and the $225.0 million, 5.75% mandatorily redeemable trust preferred securities issued by a wholly-owned subsidiary in 2001 ("Preferred Securities"). Corporate revenues increased $4.9 million and $9.2 million during the second quarter and first six months of 2002, respectively. The increase is primarily a result of unallocated investment income associated with an increase in invested assets not allocated to support segment operations. Corporate unallocated other operating expenses were less than one percent of consolidated premiums in the second quarter of 2002 and 2001. Corporate interest expense was $8.4 million and $16.7 million in the second quarter and first six months of 2002, respectively, and $4.0 million and $8.5 million in the prior-year periods. The increase was primarily due to the issuance of the Preferred Securities. 17

DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS At December 31, 1998, the Company formally reported its accident and health division as a discontinued operation for financial reporting purposes. The accident and health division was placed into run-off with all treaties being terminated at the earliest possible date. This discontinued segment reported a loss of $0.9 million and $2.1 million for the second quarter and first six months of 2002, respectively, compared to breakeven results for prior-year periods. The calculation of the claim reserve liability for the entire portfolio of accident and health business requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported claim reserve levels. Management must make estimates and assumptions based on historical loss experience, changes in the nature of the business, anticipated outcomes of claim disputes and claims for rescission, and projected future premium run-off, all of which may affect the level of the claim reserve liability. Due to the uncertainty associated with the run-off of this business, the impact on the Company's results of operations in any particular future period could be material. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES The Company's net cash flows from operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2002 and 2001 were $147.7 million and $116.6 million, respectively. Cash flows from operating activities are affected by the timing of premiums received, claims paid, and working capital changes. The Company believes the short-term cash requirements of its business operations will be sufficiently met by the positive cash flows generated. Additionally, the Company maintains a very high quality fixed maturity portfolio with good liquidity characteristics. These securities are available for sale and can be easily sold to meet the Company's obligations, if necessary. Net cash used in investing activities was $234.0 million and $68.8 million in 2002 and 2001, respectively. Changes in cash provided by investing activities primarily relate to the management of the Company's investment portfolios and the investment of excess funds generated by operating and financing activities. Net cash provided by financing activities was $48.5 million and $36.9 million in 2002 and 2001, respectively. Changes in cash provided by financing activities primarily relate to the issuance of equity or debt securities, borrowings or payments under the Company's existing credit agreements, treasury stock activity, and excess deposits or withdrawals under investment type contracts. RGA is a holding company whose primary uses of liquidity include, but are not limited to, the immediate capital needs of its operating companies associated with the Company's primary businesses, dividends paid by RGA to its shareholders, interest payments on its senior indebtedness and junior subordinated notes (See Notes 16, "Long-Term Debt," and 17, "Issuance of Trust Piers Units," in the Annual Report), and repurchases of RGA common stock under a board of director approved plan. The primary sources of RGA's liquidity include proceeds from its capital raising efforts, borrowings under its U.S. revolving credit facility, interest income on undeployed corporate investments, interest income received on surplus notes with two operating subsidiaries, and dividends from operating subsidiaries. As the Company continues its expansion efforts, RGA will continue to be dependent on these sources of liquidity. Certain of the Company's debt agreements contain financial covenant restrictions related to, among others, liens, the issuance and disposition of stock of restricted subsidiaries, minimum requirements of net worth ranging from $600 million to $700 million, and minimum rating requirements. A material ongoing covenant default could require immediate payment of the amount due, including principal, under the various agreements. Additionally, the Company's debt agreements contain cross-default covenants, which would make outstanding borrowings immediately payable in the event of a material uncured covenant default under any of the agreements, including, but not limited to, non-payment of indebtedness when due for amounts greater than $10 million or $25 million depending on the agreement, bankruptcy proceedings, and any event which results in the acceleration of the maturity of indebtedness. As of June 30, 2002, the Company had $325.4 million in outstanding borrowings under its debt agreements and was in compliance with all covenants under those agreements. The ability of the Company to make debt principal and interest payments depends primarily on the earnings and surplus of its subsidiaries, investment earnings on undeployed capital proceeds, and the Company's ability to raise additional funds. At June 30, 2002, Reinsurance Company of Missouri, Inc. (RCM) and RGA Canada had statutory capital and surplus of $570.5 million and $188.4 million, respectively. RCM's primary asset is its investment in RGA Reinsurance, the main operating company. The transfer of funds from the subsidiaries to the Company is subject to applicable insurance laws and regulations. The Company expects any future increases in liquidity needs 18

due to treaty recaptures, relatively large policy loans or unanticipated material claims levels would be met first by operating cash flows and then by selling fixed-income securities or short-term investments. The Company expects consolidated interest expense to increase significantly in 2002 due to the addition of the $225.0 million face amount, 5.75% trust preferred securities issued by RGA Capital Trust I and the interest expense associated with its $200.0 million 6.75% Senior Notes due 2011, the proceeds of which were used to pay down a balance of $120 million on its U.S. revolving credit facility and to prepay and terminate the $75 million term loan with MetLife Credit Corp. As of June 30, 2002, the Company had available capacity of approximately $156.7 million through its U.S. and foreign revolving credit facilities and the average interest rate on long-term debt outstanding was 6.34%. Currently, the $140.0 million U.S. revolving credit facility has a zero balance and terminates in May, 2003, at which time the Company plans to renew the existing credit facility or enter into another credit agreement to replace the terminated facility. Based on the historic cash flows and the current financial results of the Company, subject to any dividend limitations which may be imposed by various insurance regulations, management believes RGA's cash flows from operating activities, together with undeployed proceeds from its capital raising efforts, including interest and investment income on those proceeds, interest income received on surplus notes with two operating subsidiaries, and its ability to raise funds in the capital markets, will be sufficient to enable RGA to make dividend payments to its shareholders, to make interest payments on its senior indebtedness and junior subordinated notes, to repurchase RGA common stock under the board of director approved plan, and to meet its other obligations. The Company has catastrophe insurance coverage that expires August 13, 2002, providing benefits of up to $100 million per occurrence for claims involving three or more deaths in a single accident. As of August 12, 2002, the Company has received commitments on 94% of a total of $50.0 million in new catastrophe coverage. Under the new coverage, the Company retains the first $20 million in claims and $10 million of the next $20 million in claims. Additionally, the cost of coverage has increased significantly compared to the policy expiring August 13, 2002. A general economic downturn or a downturn in the equity and other capital markets could adversely affect the market for many annuity and life insurance products. Because the Company obtains substantially all of its revenues through reinsurance arrangements that cover a portfolio of life insurance products, as well as annuities, its business would be harmed if the market for annuities or life insurance were adversely affected. INVESTMENTS Invested assets, including cash and short-term investments, totaled $5.7 billion at June 30, 2002 compared to $5.3 at December 31, 2001. Increases from positive operating cash flows and deposits on asset intensive products contributed to the increase in invested assets during the first six months of 2002. The Company has historically generated positive cash flows from operations. Within the fixed maturity security portfolio, the Company holds approximately $217.4 million in asset-backed securities at June 30, 2002, which include credit card and automobile receivables, home equity loans and collateralized bond obligations. The Company's asset-backed securities are primarily floating rate securities and are diversified by issuer. Approximately 55.4%, or $120.4 million are collateralized bond obligations. The Company recorded $8.7 million in realized losses during the second quarter of 2002 due to the sale of WorldCom/MCI fixed maturity holdings. The Company monitors its fixed maturity securities to determine impairments in value. In conjunction with its external investments manager, the Company evaluates factors such as financial condition of the issuer, payment performance, market value, compliance with covenants, general market conditions, intent and ability to hold securities, and various other subjective factors. Securities, based on management's judgment, with an other than temporary impairment in value are written down to management's estimate of net realizable value. COUNTERPARTY RISK In the normal course of business, the Company seeks to limit its exposure to reinsurance contracts by ceding a portion of the reinsurance to other insurance companies or reinsurers. If a counterparty was unable to fulfill its obligation to us under our reinsurance agreement with them, the impact could be material to the Company's financial condition and results of operations. 19

MARKET RISK Market risk is the risk of loss that may occur when fluctuations in interest and currency exchange rates and equity and commodity prices change the value of a financial instrument. Both derivative and nonderivative financial instruments have market risk so the Company's risk management extends beyond derivatives to encompass all financial instruments held that are sensitive to market risk. RGA is primarily exposed to interest rate risk and foreign currency risk. Interest Rate Risk arises from many of the Company's primary activities, as the Company invests substantial funds in interest-sensitive assets and also has certain interest-sensitive contract liabilities. The Company manages interest rate risk and credit risk to maximize the return on the Company's capital effectively and to preserve the value created by its business operations. As such, certain management monitoring processes are designed to minimize the impact of sudden and sustained changes in interest rates on fair value, cash flows, and net interest income. The Company is subject to foreign currency translation, transaction, and net income exposure. The Company generally does not hedge the foreign currency translation exposure related to its investment in foreign subsidiaries as it views these investments to be long-term. Due to the economic uncertainty in Argentina and losses associated with Argentine privatized pension business, the Company has scaled back its operations in Latin America. Reinsurance of the Argentine pension business is conducted through the Company's principal operating subsidiary based in Missouri. Translation differences resulting from translating foreign subsidiary balances to U.S. dollars are reflected in equity. The Company generally does not hedge the foreign currency exposure of its subsidiaries transacting business in currencies other than their functional currency (transaction exposure). Currently, the Company believes its foreign currency transaction exposure is not material to the consolidated results of operations. There has been no significant change in the Company's quantitative or qualitative aspects of market risk during the quarter ended June 30, 2002 from that disclosed in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2001. CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, including, among others, statements relating to projections of the earnings, revenues, income or loss, future financial performance and growth potential of Reinsurance Group of America, Incorporated and its subsidiaries (which we refer to in the following paragraphs as "we," "us" or "our"). The words "intend," "expect," "project," "estimate," "predict," "anticipate," "should," "believe," and other similar expressions also are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are inherently subject to risks and uncertainties, some of which cannot be predicted or quantified. Future events and actual results, performance and achievements could differ materially from those set forth in, contemplated by or underlying the forward-looking statements. Numerous important factors could cause actual results and events to differ materially from those expressed or implied by forward-looking statements including, without limitation, (1) material changes in mortality and claims experience, (2) market or economic conditions that adversely affect our ability to make timely sales of investment securities, (3) competitive factors and competitors' responses to our initiatives, (4) general economic conditions affecting the demand for insurance and reinsurance in our current and planned markets, (5) changes in our financial strength and credit ratings or those of Metropolitan Life Insurance Company ("MetLife"), General American Life Insurance Company ("General American"), and their respective affiliates, and the effect of such changes on our future results of operations and financial condition, (6) fluctuations in U.S. or foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates, or securities and real estate markets, (7) changes in investment portfolio yields due to interest rate or credit quality changes, (8) the stability of governments and economies in the markets in which we operate, (9) adverse litigation or arbitration results, (10) the success of our clients, (11) successful execution of our entry into new markets, (12) successful development and introduction of new products, (13) regulatory action that may be taken by state Departments of Insurance with respect to us, MetLife, or General American, (14) changes in laws, regulations, and accounting standards applicable to us, our subsidiaries, or our business, and (15) other risks and uncertainties described in this document and in our other filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Forward-looking statements should be evaluated together with the many risks and uncertainties that affect our business, including those mentioned in this document and described in the periodic reports we file with the Securities 20

and Exchange Commission. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on the forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date on which they are made. We do not undertake any obligations to update these forward-looking statements, even though our situation may change in the future. We qualify all of our forward-looking statements by these cautionary statements. ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK. See "Item 2 -- Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations -- Market Risk" which are incorporated by reference herein. PART II -- OTHER INFORMATION ITEM 1. LEGAL PROCEEDINGS From time to time, the Company is subject to litigation and arbitration related to its reinsurance business and to employment-related matters in the normal course of its business. The Company is currently a party to arbitrations that involve three separate medical reinsurance arrangements, three arbitrations relative to the Company's portfolio of personal accident business, one lawsuit seeking to enforce an arbitration award relating to a medical reinsurance arrangement, and one lawsuit involving aviation bodily injury carve-out reinsurance coverage. Currently, the ceding companies involved in these disputes have raised claims that are $39.5 million in excess of the amounts held as a liability by the Company. The Company believes it has substantial defenses upon which to contest these claims, including but not limited to misrepresentation and breach of contract by direct and indirect ceding companies. See Note 22 of the Annual Report for more information. While it is not feasible to predict the outcome of the pending arbitrations or legal proceedings or provide reasonable ranges of potential losses, it is the opinion of management that their outcomes after consideration of the provisions made in the Company's consolidated financial statements would not have a material adverse effect on its consolidated financial position, however the impact on its results of operations could be material.

At any time after the issuance of the units, the preferred security and the warrant components of each unit may be separated by the holder and transferred separately. Thereafter, a separated warrant and preferred security may be recombined to form a unit. PRICE.................... $50 per unit. MATURITY OF DEBENTURES... , 2050. EXPIRATION OF WARRANTS... , 2050. DISTRIBUTION DATES....... , , and of each year, beginning on , 2002. Distribution on the preferred securities will be made only to the extent that we make corresponding interest payments on the debentures. DISTRIBUTION RATE........ % per year on the stated liquidation amount of the preferred securities, subject to reset upon a remarketing to the reset rate on the accreted value as of the end of the day next preceding the remarketing settlement date. The distribution rate on the preferred securities will correspond to the interest rate on the debentures. ACCRETED VALUE........... The "accreted value" of a preferred security is equal to the accreted value of a debenture, which is equal to the sum of the initial purchase price of the preferred security component of each unit (or $ ) plus accrual of discount (that is, the difference between the principal amount of $50 payable in respect of a debenture on 2050 and its initial purchase price) calculated from , 2001 to the date of calculation at the all-in yield rate of % per annum through , 2050 minus accrual of interest on the principal amount of the debentures (or $50) at the rate of % in each case, on a quarterly bond equivalent yield basis using a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months until that sum equals $50 on 2050. S-6

DEFERRAL OF PAYMENTS..... So long as we are not in default in the payment of interest on the debentures and so long as a failed remarketing has not occurred, we will have the right, at any time, and from time to time during the term of the debentures, to defer payments of interest by extending the interest payment period for a period not exceeding 20 consecutive quarters or extending beyond the stated maturity of the debentures (the "extension period"), during which extension period no interest will be due and payable. Prior to the termination of any such extension period, we may further extend such extension period; provided that such extension period, together with all such previous and further extensions, may not exceed 20 consecutive quarters or extend beyond the stated maturity of the debentures. During any extension period, we will agree not to make certain restricted payments. WARRANT EXERCISE PRICE... The warrant exercise price will be $50, unless RGA chooses to redeem the warrants as described below, in which case the exercise price of the warrants instead of redemption will be an amount initially equal to $ , which price will accrete on a daily basis as described in this prospectus supplement to a maximum of $50, on the expiration date. In such circumstances, the warrant exercise price will accrete on a daily basis such that on any given date of calculation it will be equal to $ plus accretion, calculated from , 2001 to the date of calculation, at the all-in yield of % per annum through , 2050 minus accrual of an amount equal to $50 multiplied by %, in each case, on a quarterly bond equivalent basis using a 360-day year of twelve 30-day months. In connection with an exercise of the warrants instead of a redemption, the exercise price of the warrants will be calculated as of the business day next preceding the redemption date. If the warrant holder exercises the warrant other than instead of a redemption, the warrant exercise price will be $50. OPTIONAL REDEMPTION OF WARRANTS AND REMARKETING OF PREFERRED SECURITIES.. If on any date after , 2004, the closing price of our common stock exceeds and has exceeded a price per share equal to $ , subject to adjustment, for at least 20 trading days (as defined below) within the immediately preceding 30 consecutive trading days, we may at our option, elect to redeem the warrants, in whole but not in part, for cash [or, if specified conditions are met, our common stock or a combination of cash and our common stock,] equal to the warrant redemption amount, which will be equal to $50 minus the exercise price of the warrant as of the end of the day next preceding the redemption date instead of redemption as described above. In addition, as described below, we may redeem the warrants if certain other events occur. The warrants will be redeemed on the redemption date unless a warrant holder affirmatively elects to exercise its warrants. We are is not required to give the holders of the warrants more than six business days notice of our election to redeem the warrants. Because of the abbreviated notification period, a warrant holder S-7

who intends to exercise its warrant upon an optional redemption of the warrants may want to provide standing instructions [to its broker or the party which holds the warrant for the holder for the exercise of the warrants and the delivery of shares to the warrant agent] in order to allow that party to act quickly if it receives a notice of redemption from us. See "Risk Factors -- You may be required to elect to exercise your warrants within five business days of notification of an election by RGA to optionally redeem the warrants" beginning on page in this prospectus supplement. In connection with a redemption or upon expiration of the warrants, we will also be obligated to seek a remarketing of all the preferred securities at a price of no less than 100% of their accreted value. If the warrant holder chooses to exercise the warrant and is a unit holder that has not opted out of the remarketing, the proceeds from a successful contemporaneous remarketing of the related preferred security will be applied to satisfy in full the exercise price of the warrant. The remarketing settlement date and the optional redemption date will be three business days after the remarketing date. Also in connection with a remarketing: - the adjusted maturity of the debentures (and, as a result, the redemption date of the preferred securities) will become the date which is 93 days following the remarketing settlement date; - the amount due at the adjusted maturity date of the debentures will be the accreted value of the debentures as of the end of the business day next preceding the remarketing settlement date (and, as a result, the amount due at the adjusted redemption date of the preferred securities will be the accreted value of the preferred securities as of such date); - upon a remarketing of the preferred securities in connection with an expiration of the warrants at maturity, the preferred securities will be remarketed at their stated liquidation amount; and - on the remarketing settlement date, the debentures will have an interest rate on their accreted value or stated liquidation amount if remarketed at maturity (and, as a result, the preferred securities will have a distribution rate on their accreted value or stated liquidation amount if remarketed at maturity) equal to the rate established in the remarketing. See "-- Failed Remarketing" below for a description of the consequences of the failure to successfully remarket the preferred securities in connection with a redemption or expiration of the warrants. REDEMPTION AND REMARKETING UPON TAX EVENT OR INVESTMENT COMPANY EVENT........... If (1) certain tax events occur or (2) if there is a more than an insubstantial risk that the Trust will be considered an investment S-8

company under the Investment Company Act of 1940 and certain requirements are satisfied, we may, at our option, elect to redeem the warrants at their warrant redemption amount and remarket the preferred securities. CHANGE OF CONTROL............... If a change of control occurs, as defined under "Description of the Warrants -- Change of Control" in this prospectus supplement, the holders of unit securities will have the right to: o require RGA to redeem that holder's warrant on the date that is 45 days after the date RGA gives notice of the change of control event at a redemption price equal to 100% of the warrant redemption amount on the redemption date which may be paid in cash or, at our option if we satisfy specified conditions, our common stock or a combination of cash and our common stock; and o exchange that holder's preferred security for a debenture having an accreted value equal to the accreted value of such preferred security and to require RGA to repurchase such debenture on the repurchase date at a repurchase price equal to 100% of the accreted value of the debenture on the repurchase date plus accrued and unpaid interest (including deferred interest) on the debentures to, but excluding, the repurchase date. See "Description of the Warrants -- Change of Control" and "Description of the Preferred Securities -- Change of Control" in this prospectus supplement. REMARKETING AT EXPIRATION OF WARRANTS........................ If not previously remarketed, the preferred securities will be remarketed on , 2050. In addition, the warrants will expire on , 2050, unless previously exercised. EXERCISE OF WARRANTS............ A holder may exercise warrants at any time prior to the close of business on , 2050 (the "expiration date"), unless earlier redeemed. The warrants will not be exercisable unless, at the time of the exercise: o a registration statement is in effect under the Securities Act of 1933 covering the issuance and sale (and resale) of the shares of common stock upon exercise of the warrants or the issuance and sale (and resale) of the shares upon exercise of the warrants is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933; o the shares have been registered, qualified or are deemed to be exempt under the securities laws of the state of residence of the exercising holder of the warrants; and o to the extent required by applicable law, a then current prospectus is delivered to the exercising holders of the warrants. S-9

Holders must pay the exercise price of their warrants in cash (including the automatic application of a portion of the proceeds of any remarketing of preferred securities). Accordingly, the holders of units may not tender their preferred securities directly toward payment of the exercise price of the warrants. RIGHTS OF A UNIT HOLDER......... Following an exercise of warrants by a unit holder other than in connection with a remarketing, the holder may require the Trust to exchange the holder's related preferred securities for debentures and require RGA to repurchase such debentures at $50 on a special distribution date which is no less than 93 days following the exercise of the warrants. If a unit holder exercises the warrant that is part of the unit in connection with an optional redemption of the warrants by RGA or expiration of the warrants, the holder will be able to satisfy in full the exercise price by applying the proceeds of a successful related remarketing of the related preferred securities. See "Description of the Preferred Securities -- Remarketing" in this prospectus supplement. FAILED REMARKETING.............. If the remarketing agent is unable to remarket the preferred securities when required for any reason, a "failed remarketing" will have occurred. If a failed remarketing occurs: o beginning on the third business day after such date, interest will accrue on the accreted value of the debentures, and distributions will accumulate on the accreted value of the preferred securities; o the interest rate on the accreted value of debentures will be % pre annum and, as a result, the distribution rate on the accreted value of the preferred securities will increase correspondingly; o the stated maturity of the accreted value of the debentures (and, as a result, the final distribution date for the preferred securities) will become the date which is 93 days after the failed remarketing settlement date; and o we will no longer have the option to defer interest payments on the debentures. Notwithstanding that a failed remarketing in connection with an optional redemption of the warrants may occur, the warrants would nevertheless be redeemed at the warrant redemption amount on the optional redemption date and a warrant holder who has elected to exercise its warrants will be obligated to exercise its warrants instead of such redemption by paying the exercise price in cash. GUARANTEE....................... The following payments or distributions with respect to the preferred securities and common securities on a pro rata basis, to the extent not paid by or on behalf of the Trust, will be guaranteed by us: o any accumulated and unpaid distributions required to be paid on the preferred securities and common securities on a pro

rata basis, to the extent that the Trust has sufficient funds available therefor at the time; - the redemption price with respect to any preferred securities and common securities on a pro rata basis called for redemption, to the extent that the Trust has sufficient funds available therefor at such time; - the repurchase of debentures, which are exchanged for preferred securities if a change of control occurs, at the accreted value equal to the accreted value of the preferred securities, plus accrued and unpaid interest on the debentures (including deferred interest) to, but excluding, the repurchase date; and - upon a voluntary or involuntary dissolution, winding up or termination of the Trust (other than in connection with the exchange of all of the preferred securities for debentures and the distribution of the debentures to the holders of the preferred securities and common securities on a pro rata basis), the lesser of - the aggregate accreted value of the common and preferred securities of the Trust and all accumulated and unpaid distributions thereon to the date of payment; and - the amount of assets of the Trust remaining available for distribution to the holders of preferred securities and common securities on a pro rata basis. Our obligations under the guarantee will be subordinated and junior in right of payment to all of our existing and future senior indebtedness. THE TRUST.............. The Trust is a Delaware statutory business trust. The sole assets of the Trust will be the debentures. The Trust will issue the preferred securities and the common securities. All of the common securities will be owned by us, in an aggregate liquidation amount of at least 3% of the total capital of the Trust. RANKING................ Payment of distributions on, and the redemption price of, the preferred securities and the common securities, will generally be made pro rata based on their liquidation amounts. However, if on any payment date, an indenture event of default has occurred and is continuing, no payment on the common securities will be made unless payment in full in cash of all accumulated and unpaid distributions on all of the outstanding preferred securities for all current and prior distribution periods (or in the case of payment of the redemption price, the full amount of such redemption price on all of the outstanding preferred securities then called for redemption), has been made or provided for. FORM AND DENOMINATION.. The Depository Trust Company, which we refer to as "DTC," will act as securities depositary for the unit securities, each of which will be issued only as fully registered securities registered in the name of DTC or its nominee for credit to an account of a S-11

direct or indirect participant in DTC. One or more fully registered certificates will be issued for each of the unit securities, and will be deposited with the property trustee as custodian for DTC. The preferred securities will be issued in denominations of $50 stated liquidation amount and whole multiples of $50. See "Book-Entry Issuance" in this prospectus supplement. USE OF PROCEEDS......... We will use the net proceeds from the offering of the units (consisting of the portion of the net proceeds from the sale of the units relating to the warrants, and the net proceeds from the issuance of the debentures to the Trust) for general corporate purposes. The Trust will use the portion of the net proceeds from the sale of the units relating to the preferred securities to acquire the debentures from us. MATERIAL UNITED STATES FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES............ RGA intends to treat and you (by your acceptance of a beneficial interest in the unit) agree to treat each unit as an "investment unit" consisting of a preferred security and a warrant. As such, the purchase price of each unit will be allocated between the preferred security and the warrant in proportion to their respective fair market values at the time of purchase. In the opinion of Bryan Cave LLP, counsel to RGA, for United States federal income tax purposes (x) the debentures will be treated as debt and (y) the Trust will be treated as a grantor trust. As a result, each holder of a preferred security generally will be treated as owning an undivided beneficial ownership interest in the debentures. As a consequence, if the holder is a United States taxpayer, it will be required to include as ordinary income amounts constituting original issue discount. The amount of interest income, including original issue discount, on which it will be taxed will exceed its share of the cash interest payments received from the Trust on the preferred securities. See "Material United States Federal Income Tax Consequences" in this prospectus supplement. ERISA CONSIDERATIONS.... Each purchaser and subsequent transferee of the units, including the underlying preferred securities, warrants, debentures and any shares of our common stock issued upon the exercise of the warrants will be deemed to have represented and warranted that the acquisition and holding of these securities by the purchaser or transferee will not constitute a non-exempt prohibited transaction under Section 406 of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 ("ERISA") or Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 or similar violation under any applicable similar laws. See "ERISA Considerations" in this prospectus supplement. ABSENCE OF A PUBLIC MARKET FOR THE UNITS.... The units and their components will be new securities. We cannot assure you that an active or liquid market will develop for the units or their components. S-12

NEW YORK STOCK EXCHANGE Our common stock is traded on the New York Stock SYMBOL FOR OUR COMMON Exchange under the symbol "RGA". We have applied to STOCK AND LISTING........ list the units on the NYSE under the symbol " ." We expect that trading of the units on the NYSE will commence on the second trading day after the date of this prospectus supplement. If either the preferred securities or the warrants are traded at a volume that satisfies applicable exchange listing requirements, then we will use our reasonable best efforts to list those securities on the national securities exchange or quotation system on which the units are then listed or quoted. [PLANNED DEBT OFFERING Following this offering, we intend to sell $200. million aggregate principal amount of our senior notes. This offering and the concurrent senior notes offering are not conditioned on each other, which means that we may complete either offering without completing the other.] S-13
