Effective January 1, 2015, the New England Life Insurance Company 401(k) Savings Plan and Trust and the New England Agents’ Deferred Compensation Plan and Trust (together, the “New England Plans”) were each merged into the Savings and Investment Plan for Employees of Metropolitan Life and Participating Affiliates (the “SIP”), with the SIP being the surviving and continuing plan. As a result, each of the New England Plans ceased to exist and the interests in each of the New England Plans, which previously constituted securities registered pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, no longer exist. Pursuant to Rule 15d-6, the SIP has filed this Form 15 as successor in interest to each of the New England Plans to reflect the suspension of each of the New England Plans’ respective duties to file reports under Section 15(d) of the Securities Act of 1934, as amended.

Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, the SIP, as successor in interest to each of the New England Plans, has caused this certification/notice to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned duly authorized person.
