MassMutual EnvisionSM Variable Annuity Issued by Massachusetts Mutual Life Insurance Company
Massachusetts Mutual Variable Annuity Separate Account 4
This Rate Sheet Prospectus Supplement (“Rate Sheet”) should be read carefully and retained with the Prospectus dated
April 29, 2024 for the MassMutual EnvisionSM Variable Annuity. You may obtain a current Prospectus at www.MassMutual.com/Envision or by calling (800) 272-2216, sending an email request to ANNfax@MassMutual.com, or writing to MassMutual, PO Box 9067, Springfield, MA 01102-9067.
We are issuing this Rate Sheet to update the following information regarding the MassMutual RetirePaySM Guaranteed Lifetime Withdrawal Benefit (RetirePay):
 
•
Withdrawal Rates,
 
•
Lifetime Guarantee Rates,
 
•
RetirePay Charges, and
 
•
Investment Allocation Restrictions
 
(collectively, referred to as the “RetirePay Terms.”)
The RetirePay Terms included in this Rate Sheet are effective for applications submitted on or after April 29, 2024 until a new Rate Sheet is issued that replaces and supersedes this Rate Sheet.
This Rate Sheet replaces and supersedes any previously issued Rate Sheet. This Rate Sheet has no specified end date. This Rate Sheet must be used in conjunction with an effective MassMutual EnvisionSM Variable Annuity Prospectus. For complete information about RetirePay, see the “Additional Benefits — MassMutual RetirePaySM” section in the MassMutual EnvisionSM Variable Annuity Prospectus.
If we change the RetirePay Terms, we will issue a new Rate Sheet. In the event we issue a new Rate Sheet, we will provide at least 10 business days’ notice of the effective date of the superseding Rate Sheet.  
Rate Sheet Eligibility Conditions
Certain Rate Sheet eligibility conditions apply when we have issued a superseding Rate Sheet after you apply for your contract and prior to your issue date.
In order for the RetirePay Terms in this Rate Sheet to apply to your Contract, your necessary application information, including any applicable transfer form(s), must be submitted to an order entry system utilized to issue the Contract (“application submit date”) on or after April 29, 2024 and prior to the effective date of the superseding Rate Sheet.  For purposes of this process, the application submit date is also defined to include the date the application is signed if a paper application is necessary.
Application Information Submitted with a Purchase Payment
In addition to the submission of your necessary application information, we also require payment of at least the minimum initial Purchase Payment and the application information to be in Good Order within 10 business days after the application submit date.
If these Rate Sheet Eligibility Conditions are met, and the Contract is issued, the RetirePay Terms in this Rate Sheet will apply, unless a beneficial superseding rate sheet applies, as described under “Rate Sheet Comparison Process.”
If these Rate Sheet Eligibility Conditions are not met, we will cancel the application and return your Purchase Payment.
 
 
Application Information Submitted without a Purchase Payment
If you plan to pay the initial Purchase Payment with proceeds from an IRS Section 1035 exchange or direct transfer, your transfer form(s) and application information must be in Good Order within 10 Business Days after the application submit date. In addition, the initial Purchase Payment necessary to issue the Contract must be received within 90 calendar days after the application submit date.
If these Rate Sheet Eligibility Conditions are met, and the Contract is issued, the RetirePay Terms in this Rate Sheet will apply, unless a beneficial superseding rate sheet applies, as described under “Rate Sheet Comparison Process.”
If these Rate Sheet Eligibility Conditions are not met, we will inform you and request instructions regarding whether to issue the Contract with the RetirePay Terms in effect under the superseding Rate Sheet or cancel the application.
If you have not provided us with the requested instructions within 2 business days after we have received your Purchase Payment, we will return your Purchase Payment to the original source.
The requirement to have the necessary application information in Good Order within 10 Business Days for application information received with a Purchase Payment or without a Purchase Payment includes completion of the broker-dealer suitability review.
Rate Sheet Comparison Process
Subject to satisfying the Rate Sheet Eligibility Conditions established in this Rate Sheet, if after your application submit date and prior to your Issue Date, a subsequent Rate Sheet is issued with only beneficial changes to the RetirePay Terms, the subsequent Rate Sheet will apply. The changes will be considered to be beneficial unless any of the following occurs:
 
•
Withdrawal Rates and/or Lifetime Guarantee Rates have decreased,
 
•
RetirePay Charges have increased, or
 
•
Investment Allocation Restrictions have changed (unless the sole change to the Investment Allocation Restrictions is the addition of available investment options).
 
For example, if the RetirePay Charges have increased, you will receive the RetirePay Terms included in the Rate Sheet in effect on your application submit date even if the Withdrawal Rates and/or Lifetime Guarantee Rates have increased in the subsequent Rate Sheet.
You should not purchase RetirePay without first obtaining the applicable Rate Sheet. To obtain a current Rate Sheet:

On the Guaranteed Lifetime Withdrawal Date, we will determine the Withdrawal Rate and the Lifetime Guarantee Rate using the number of full Contract Years from the RetirePay Issue Date until the Guaranteed Lifetime Withdrawal Date and the Age of the youngest Covered Person on the Guaranteed Lifetime Withdrawal Date. However, if the RetirePay Charge is increased and you elect the RetirePay Charge Increase Opt-Out prior to the youngest Covered Person attaining age 59½, the Withdrawal Rate is determined using the number of years from the  RetirePay Issue Date until the effective date of the RetirePay Charge Increase Opt-Out, and the date the youngest Covered Person attains age 59½.  
The Withdrawal Rate applies when your Contract Value is greater than zero. The Lifetime Guarantee Rate applies when your Contract Value is zero. Once the contract is issued, the Withdrawal Rates and the Lifetime Guarantee Rates applicable to your Contract below will not change for the life of your Contract.
