owner of 2,725 Shares held by Jeanne A. Wolzenski as trustee of a trust. Mr.
Wolzenski did not have voting or dispositive power with respect to such Shares.
As of April 3, 2001, A. Greig Woodring, Executive Vice-President - Reinsurance
of GenAmerica and GenAm Life and President and Chief Executive Officer of RGA,
may be deemed to have been the beneficial owner of 256,780 Shares and had sole
voting and dispositive power with respect to such Shares except for 15,000
restricted Shares for which Mr. Woodring had sole voting power but no
dispositive power until vested. As of April 3, 2001, Richard A. Liddy, Chairman
of GenAmerica, GenAm Life, and RGA may be deemed to have been the beneficial
owner of 102,581 Shares, (i) 76,498 Shares which were owned directly by Mr.
Liddy, and (ii) 26,083 Shares which were owned by Joanne S. Liddy, his spouse.
Mr. Liddy had sole voting and dispositive power with respect to the shares
owned directly by him, and shared voting and dispositive power with respect to
such Shares owned by his spouse.  Mr. Liddy disclaimed beneficial ownership of
the aforementioned Shares owned by his spouse.  Some of the Shares described in
this paragraph may be in the form of stock options exercisable within 60 days
or restricted stock.  None of the Share ownership described in this paragraph
represents beneficial ownership by any individual of more than 1% of the
outstanding Shares.

        The percentage amounts set forth in this Item 5 are based upon the
number of Shares issued and outstanding as of March 1, 2001, as described in
RGA's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended December 31,
2000.

        (c) In the 60 days prior to the date of filing of this Statement, none
of the Filing Parties nor, to the best knowledge of the Filing Parties, any of
their respective directors and executive officers has effected any transactions
in the Shares, except as disclosed in this Statement, and except the following.
On February 12, 2001, Richard A. Liddy, Chairman, Retired President and Chief
Executive Officer, GenAmerica and GenAm Life, exercised an option to purchase
45,002 Shares from RGA at the price of $11.55 per share, and sold such shares
in open market transactions.  5,100 of such shares were sold on February 12,
2001 at a price of $37.03 per share, and 39,902 shares were sold on February
13, 2001 at a price of $37.00 per share. In addition, Helene L. Kaplan, a
director of MLINC and MetLife, acquired 1050 Shares through open market
transactions effected without her knowledge through a blind trust agreement.
350 of such shares were purchased on January 30, 2001 at a price of $32.79 per
share, and 700 of such shares were purchased on March 15, 2001 at a price of
$39.02 per share.

        (d) No other person is known by the Filing Parties to have the
right to receive or the power to direct the receipt of dividends from, and the
proceeds from the sale of, the Direct Shares or the Indirect Shares.

        (e) Not applicable.
