MetLife, Inc.
Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Statement of Operations
On November 1, 2010, MetLife, Inc. acquired all of the outstanding shares of capital stock of American Life Insurance Company and Delaware American Life Insurance Company (together, “ALICO”) for a total purchase price of approximately $16.4 billion, subject to adjustment, which included cash of $7.2 billion and securities of MetLife, Inc. valued at $9.2 billion (the “Acquisition”). The Acquisition was made pursuant to a stock purchase agreement, as amended, dated as of March 7, 2010 by and among MetLife, Inc., American International Group, Inc. (“AIG”) and ALICO Holdings LLC (“ALICO Holdings”) (the “Stock Purchase Agreement”).
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations and accompanying notes present the impact of the Acquisition on MetLife, Inc.’s results of operations under the acquisition method of accounting. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2010 combines the historical consolidated statement of operations of MetLife, Inc. for the year ended December 31, 2010 (which includes ALICO’s operations for the month of November 2010) with the historical combined statement of income of ALICO for the eleven months ended October 31, 2010, giving effect to the Acquisition as if it had been completed on January 1, 2010. The historical financial information has been adjusted in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations to give effect to pro forma events that are directly attributable to the Acquisition and factually supportable, and are expected to have a continuing impact on the combined results.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations should be read in conjunction with the accompanying notes and in conjunction with the audited historical consolidated financial statements of MetLife, Inc. as of and for the year ended December 31, 2010 and the related notes, included in MetLife, Inc.’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2010.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations is not intended to reflect the results of operations that would have resulted had the Acquisition been effective during the period presented or the results that may be obtained by the combined company in the future. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the period presented does not reflect future events that may occur after the Acquisition, including, but not limited to, expense efficiencies or revenue enhancements arising from the Acquisition. It also does not give effect to certain one-time charges that MetLife, Inc. expects to incur such as restructuring and integration costs. Future results may vary significantly from the results reflected in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations.

MetLife, Inc.
Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Statement of Operations
1. Description of Transaction
Under the terms of the Stock Purchase Agreement, on November 1, 2010, MetLife, Inc. (i) paid $7.2 billion to ALICO Holdings in cash, and (ii) issued to ALICO Holdings (a) 78,239,712 shares of MetLife, Inc.’s common stock, (b) 6,857,000 shares of Series B Contingent Convertible Junior Participating Non-Cumulative Perpetual Preferred Stock (the “Series B Preferred Stock”) of MetLife, Inc., and (c) 40,000,000 equity units of MetLife, Inc. with an aggregate stated amount at issuance of $3.0 billion, initially consisting of (x) purchase contracts obligating the holder to purchase, on specified future settlement dates, a variable number of shares of MetLife, Inc.’s common stock for a fixed price; and (y) an interest in each of three series of debt securities (the “Debt Securities”) issued by MetLife, Inc.
2. Basis of Presentation
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations is based on the historical financial statements of MetLife, Inc. and ALICO and combines the condensed consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2010, for MetLife, Inc. (which includes ALICO’s operations for the month of November 2010) and the combined statement of income for the eleven months ended October 31, 2010, for ALICO. For ease of reference, all pro forma adjustments reference MetLife, Inc.’s December 31, 2010 year end date and no adjustments were made to ALICO’s reported information for its different period-end date. Certain adjustments and reclassifications have been recorded in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations to conform to MetLife, Inc.’s accounting policies and are more fully described in Notes 4 and 5. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations gives effect to the Acquisition as if it had occurred on January 1, 2010.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations is presented in accordance with the requirements of Article 11 of Regulation S-X published by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. In accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X, discontinued operations and the related earnings per share data have been excluded from the presentation of the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations and accompanying notes present the impact of the Acquisition on MetLife, Inc.’s results of operations under the acquisition method of accounting. The acquisition method of accounting requires, among other things, that the consideration transferred be measured at fair value at the acquisition date and that assets acquired and liabilities assumed be recognized at their fair values as of the acquisition date. Accordingly, for purposes of determining the pro forma adjustments in the condensed combined statement of operations, the assets acquired and liabilities assumed were assumed to have been recorded as of the acquisition date of January 1, 2010 at their respective fair values.
The pro forma adjustments reflecting the acquisition are based on certain estimates and assumptions. MetLife, Inc.’s management believes that the pro forma adjustments give appropriate effect to those assumptions and are properly applied in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations is not intended to reflect the results of operations of the combined company that would have resulted had the Acquisition been effective during the period presented or the results that may be obtained by the combined company in the future.
3. Acquisition-Related Costs
During the year ended December 31, 2010, MetLife, Inc. incurred acquisition-related transaction costs, consisting primarily of investment banking and legal fees, of $106 million. This amount is reflected in MetLife, Inc.’s historical consolidated statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2010 and was included in other expenses. A pro forma adjustment has been made to eliminate these costs from the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2010 due to their non-recurring nature.

An adjustment to decrease mortgage loans to fair value resulted in an increase in net investment income of $45 million for the year ended December 31, 2010.

(h)  
An adjustment to eliminate ALICO’s historical deferred policy acquisition costs (“DAC”) resulted in an amortization decrease of $1,808 million for the year ended December 31, 2010.

(i)  
Adjustments to establish the value of business acquired (“VOBA”), the value of distribution agreements acquired (“VODA”) and the value of customer relationships acquired (“VOCRA”) arising from the Acquisition resulted in an adjustment for the related amortization for VOBA, VODA and VOCRA of $1,202 million for the year ended December 31, 2010.

(o)  
An adjustment to reflect the issuance of the Debt Securities of $3.0 billion and the public offering of senior notes issued in August, 2010 of $3.0 billion in connection with the Acquisition was assumed to have been made as of January 1, 2010 and the increase in other expenses related to interest expense related to the Debt Securities and the senior notes is $129 million for the year ended December 31, 2010.

(q)  
Adjustment to remove the effects of changes in embedded derivatives on certain U.K. unit linked business contracts which reduce earnings by $99 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 since the related guarantees will not impact MetLife, Inc.’s future earnings based on the provisions of the Stock Purchase Agreement.
 
(r)  
Adjustment to decrease policyholder benefits and claims incurred by $107 million for the year ended December 31, 2010 for the estimated effects of unlocking actuarial assumptions used in determining future net benefit premiums for certain traditional life insurance blocks of business and to reverse the mark to market effects of the fair value option used by ALICO for certain single premium variable life products in Japan as MetLife, Inc. did not exercise such a fair value election.

8. Forward Looking Statements
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations may be deemed to be forward looking statements within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward looking statements are identified by words such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “expect,” “project,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe” and other words and terms of similar meaning in connection with a discussion of future operating or financial performance. Such statements may include, but are not limited to statements about the benefits of the Acquisition, including future financial and operating results, the combined company’s plans, objectives, expectations and intentions and other statements that are not historical facts. These forward looking statements are based largely on management’s expectations and are subject to a number of risks and uncertainties. Actual results could differ materially from these forward looking statements.
