RISKS
LOCATION IN
PROSPECTUS
Is this a Short-Term
Investment?
No. This Contract is not a short-term investment and is not
appropriate for an investor who needs ready access to cash.
Withdrawal Charges may apply for up to 9 complete years
following each purchase payment. Withdrawal Charges will reduce
the value of your Contract if you withdraw money during that
time.
The benefits of tax deferral and living benefit protections also
mean that the Contract is more beneficial to investors with a long
time horizon.
Earnings on your Contract are taxed at ordinary income tax rates
when You withdraw them, and You may have to pay a penalty if
You take a withdrawal before age 59 12.
Principal Risks of
Investing in the Contract
What are the Risks
Associated with the
Investment Options?
An investment in the Contract is subject to the risk of poor
investment performance and can vary depending on the
performance of the investment options available under the
Contract (e.g., Portfolios).
Each investment option (including the Fixed Interest Account
investment option) will have its own unique risks.
You should review these investment options before making an
investment decision.
Subject to certain limitations, if your Account Value falls below
the minimum Account Balance or is not sufficient to pay the
Contract charges, we may terminate your Contract.
Principal Risks of
Investing in the Contract
What are the Risks
Related to the
Insurance Company?
An investment in the Contract is subject to the risks related to the
Company. Any obligations (including under the Fixed Interest
Account), guarantees, or benefits, including any death benefit, are
subject to the claims-paying ability of the Company, and our long
term ability to make such payments, and are not guaranteed by any
other party. MetLife is regulated as an insurance company under
state law, which generally includes limits on the amount and type of
investments in its general account. However, there is no guarantee
that we will be able to meet our claims paying obligations; there are
risks to purchasing any insurance product. More information about
the Company, including its financial strength ratings, is available
upon request by visiting https://www.metlife.com/about-us/

RESTRICTIONS
LOCATION IN
PROSPECTUS
Are there Restrictions
on the Investment
Options?
Yes. We reserve the right to limit the number of transfers per
Contract Year to a maximum of twelve (excluding transfers resulting
from automated investment strategies). Currently we do not limit
the number of transfers You may make in a Contract Year. We are not
currently charging a transfer fee, but we reserve the right to charge
such a fee in the future. If such a fee were to be imposed, it would be
$25.00 for each transfer over twelve in a Contract Year.
Many optional benefits impose restrictions and limitations on your
choice of Portfolios. We may change these restrictions in the future.
These restrictions and requirements are intended to protect the
Company and reduce the likelihood that we will have to pay
guaranteed benefits under the optional benefits out of our own
assets. The restrictions and requirements could result in your
missing out on some or all positive investment performance by
certain Portfolios. This means your opportunity for investment gains
may be limited.
We reserve the right to add, remove or substitute Portfolios.
The Company also has policies and procedures that attempt to
detect and deter frequent transfers in situations where we
determine there is potential for arbitrage trading, and in those
instances, there are additional limits that apply to transfers.
Charges Transfer Fee
Are there any
Restrictions on
Contract Benefits?
Yes. Many optional benefits limit or restrict the Portfolios You may
select under the Contract. We may change these restrictions in the
future.
You are required to have a certain Account Value for some optional
benefits. If withdrawals reduce Your Contract below this value, your
optional benefits may be reduced or terminated.
Subsequent purchase payments are currently restricted for certain
optional benefits.
Withdrawals that exceed limits specified by the terms of an optional
benefit may affect the availability of the benefit by reducing the
benefit by an amount greater than the value withdrawn, and/or
could terminate the benefit.

TAXES
LOCATION IN
PROSPECTUS
What are the Contract’s
Tax Implications?
You should consult with a tax professional to determine the tax
implications of an investment in and purchase payments received
under the Contract.
There is no additional tax benefit if You purchase the Contract
through a tax-qualified plan or individual retirement account
(IRA).
If your Contract was purchased through a tax-qualified plan or
IRA, withdrawals will be subject to ordinary income tax. If your
Contract is not tax-qualified, earnings on your Contract will be
subject to ordinary income tax rates when You withdraw them. You
may also have to pay a penalty if You take a withdrawal before age
59 12.

CONFLICTS OF INTEREST
LOCATION IN
PROSPECTUS
How are Investment
Professionals
Compensated?
Your investment professional may receive compensation for selling
this Contract to You, both in the form of commissions and because
MetLife may share the revenue it earns on this Contract with the
professional’s firm. This conflict of interest may influence your
investment professional to recommend this Contract over another
investment.
Who Sells the Contracts
Should I Exchange My
Contract?
Some investment professionals may have a financial incentive to
offer you a new contract in place of the one you own. You should only
exchange your Contract if you determine, after comparing the
features, fees, and risks of both contracts, and any fees or penalties
to terminate the existing contract, that it is better for you to
purchase the new contract rather than continue to own your existing
Exchanges/Transfers

IMPORTANT TERMS YOU SHOULD KNOW
Account Value, Account Balance or Contract Value — When You purchase a Contract, an account is set up for You. Your Account Value (also referred to as Account Balance or Contract Value) is the total amount of money in Your Contract including money in the Divisions of the Separate Account, the Fixed Interest Account and the Enhanced Dollar Cost Averaging Program.
Accumulation Unit Value  — With a Contract, money paid-in or transferred into a Division of the Separate Account is credited to You in the form of Accumulation Units for each Division . We determine the value of these Accumulation Units as of the close of the New York Stock Exchange (the “Exchange”) each day the Exchange is open for regular trading. The Exchange usually closes at 4 p.m. Eastern Time but may close earlier or later. The values increase or decrease based on the investment performance of the corresponding underlying Portfolios. In addition to the investment performance of the Portfolio, the deduction of the Separate Account charge also affects a Division’s Accumulation Unit Value.
Administrative Office —  Our Administrative Office varies based on the type of service request or transaction that you are making. The most recent correspondence or quarterly statement sent to you will have the address and telephone number that you can use to contact us for specific transactions and requests. We will notify you if there are changes to this information.
Annuitant — The natural person whose life is the measure for determining the duration and the dollar amount of income payments.
Annuity Unit Value — With a variable pay-out option, the money paid-in or reallocated into a Division of the Separate Account is held in the form of Annuity Units. Annuity Units are established for each Division. We determine the value of these Annuity Units as of the close of the Exchange each day the Exchange is open for regular trading. The Exchange usually closes at 4 p.m. Eastern Time but may close earlier or later. The values increase or decrease based on the investment performance of the corresponding underlying Portfolios, the experience factor for the current valuation period, the daily AIR and the Separate Account charge.
Assumed Investment Return (AIR)  — Under a variable pay-out option, the AIR is the assumed percentage rate of return used to determine the amount of the first variable income payment. The AIR is also the benchmark that is used to calculate the investment performance of a given Division to determine all subsequent payments to You.
Beneficiary — The person or persons who receives a benefit, including continuing payments or a lump sum payment, in the event the Contract Owner or the Annuitant, as applicable, dies.
Contract — A Contract is the legal agreement between You and MetLife. This document contains relevant provisions of your Deferred Annuity.
Contract Anniversary — An anniversary of the date we issue the Contract.
Contract Owner — The person or entity which has all rights including the right to direct who receives income payments.
Contract Year —  Generally, the Contract Year for a Deferred Annuity is the period ending on the last day of the month in which the anniversary of when we issued the annuity occurs and each following 12-month period.
Deferred Annuity — This term is used throughout this Prospectus when we are referring to the Preference Premier® Contracts Deferred Annuities.
8


Divisions — Divisions are subdivisions of the Separate Account. When You allocate a purchase payment, transfer money or make reallocations of your Account Balance to a Division, the Division purchases shares of a Portfolio (with the same name).
Good Order — A request or transaction generally is considered in “ Good Order” if it complies with our administrative procedures and the required information is complete and correct. A request or transaction may be rejected or delayed if not in Good Order . Good Order generally means the actual receipt by us of the instructions relating to the requested transaction in writing (or, when permitted, by telephone, facsimile (also referred to as “fax”), email or Internet) along with all forms, information and supporting legal documentation necessary to effect the transaction. This information and documentation generally includes to the extent applicable to the transaction: your completed application; your contract number; the transaction amount (in dollars or percentage terms); the names and allocations to and/or from the Division affected by the requested transaction; the signatures of all Contract Owners (exactly as indicated on the Contract), if necessary; Social Security Number or Tax I.D.; and any other information or supporting documentation that we may require, including any spousal or Joint Owner’s consents. With respect to purchase payments, Good Order also generally includes receipt by us of sufficient funds to effect the purchase. We may, in our sole discretion, determine whether any particular transaction request is in Good Order , and we reserve the right to change or waive any Good Order requirement at any time. If You have any questions, You should contact us or your registered representative before submitting the form or request.
MetLife —  MetLife is Metropolitan Life Insurance Company which is the company that issues the Contracts. Throughout this Prospectus, MetLife is also referred to as “we,” “us”, “our” or the “Company.”
Pay-Out Options/Income Options  — These are options that you may elect when you convert your Contract into a regular stream of income after your “pay-in” or “accumulation” phase. The pay-out phase is often referred to as either “annuitizing” your Contract or taking an income annuity.
Separate Account — Metropolitan Life Separate Account E (“Separate Account ”) is an investment account. All assets contributed to Divisions under the Contracts are pooled in the Separate Account and maintained for the benefit of investors in the Contracts.
Variable Annuity — An annuity with respect to which returns/income payments are based upon the performance of investments such as stocks and bonds held by one or more underlying Portfolios. You assume the investment risk for any amounts allocated to the Divisions in a Variable Annuity.
Withdrawal Charge — The Withdrawal Charge is the amount we deduct from your Account Value , if You withdraw money prematurely from the Contract. This charge is often referred to as a deferred sales load or back-end sales load.
You — In this Prospectus “You” is the Owner of the Contract and can be a natural person, a trust established for the exclusive benefit of a natural person, a charitable remainder trust or other trust arrangement (if approved by MetLife) or, subject to our administrative procedures, a corporation or other legal entity we approve. The Contract is generally not available to corporations or other legal entities to fund a qualified or non-qualified retirement plan. You” can also be a Beneficiary of a deceased person’s Individual Retirement Account Contract or non-qualified Contract who purchases the Contract in his or her capacity as Beneficiary. A Contract may have two Owners (both of whom must be individuals).

Investment Allocation Restrictions For Certain Optional Benefits
Investment Allocation Restrictions for the GMIB Max I and the EDB Max I. If Your Contract includes GMIB Max I and/or the EDB Max I, You may allocate your purchase payments and Account Value to the investment options below. The investment options listed in (other than the MetLife Aggregate Bond Index Division and the Western Asset Management® Government Income Division) are intended in part to reduce the risk of investment losses that could require us to use our own assets to make payments in connection with the guarantees under the
A-9


GMIB Max I and/or EDB Max I. In addition, other investment options that are available if these optional benefits are not selected may offer the potential for higher returns.
(i)
MetLife Aggregate Bond Index Portfolio Class B;
(ii)
Western Asset Management U.S. Government Portfolio Class B;
(iii)
JP Morgan Global Active Allocation;
(iv)
MetLife Multi-Index Targeted Risk Portfolio Class B; and
(v)
Fixed Interest Account, subject to state approval (if otherwise available under your Contract (see “Fixed Option,” below))
Investment Allocation Restrictions for the GMIB Plus III, the GMIB Plus II, the LWG II, the EDB II and the EDB I. If You elect the LWG II, the GMIB Plus III, the GMIB Plus II, the EDB II, or the EDB I, You must comply with certain investment allocation restrictions. Specifically, You must allocate according to either Option (A) or Option (B) (the “Option (B) Investment Allocation Restrictions”) below. The JPMorgan Global Active Allocation, MetLife Mutli-Index Targeted Risk and Fixed Interest Account investment options in Option (A) and Option (B) below are intended in part to reduce the risk of investment losses that could require us to use our own assets to make payments in connection with the guarantees under the GMIB Plus III, GMIB Plus II, LWG II, EDB II and EDB I. In addition, other investment options that are available if these optional benefits are not selected may offer the potential for higher returns.
(A) You must allocate:
100% of your purchase payments or Account Value among the American Funds® Balanced Allocation Division, American Funds® Moderate Allocation Division, Brighthouse Asset Allocation 20 Division, Brighthouse Asset Allocation 40 Division, Brighthouse Asset Allocation 60 Division, JPMorgan Global Active Allocation Division, MetLife Multi-Index Targeted Risk Division, SSGA Growth and Income ETF Division, and/or the Fixed Interest Account (if otherwise available under your Contract (see “Fixed Option,” below)) and the BlackRock Ultra-Short Term Bond Division (where available). (You may also allocate purchase payments to the EDCA program, provided that your destination portfolios are one or more of the above listed Divisions; You may not allocate purchase payments to the Dollar Cost Averaging programs.);
OR
(B) You must allocate:
at least 30% of purchase payments or Account Value to Platform 1 investment choices and/or to the Fixed Interest Account (if otherwise available under your Contract (see “Fixed Option,” below)) and the BlackRock Ultra-Short Term Bond Division (where available);
up to 70% of purchase payments or Account Value to Platform 2 investment choices;
up to 15% of purchase payments or Account Value to Platform 3 investment choices; and
up to 15% of purchase payments or Account Value to Platform 4 investment choices.
Subsequent Purchase Payments
Subsequent purchase payments must be allocated in accordance with the above limitations. When allocating according to Option (B) above, it is important to remember that the entire Account Value will be immediately reallocated according to any new allocation instructions that accompany a subsequent purchase payment if the new allocation instructions differ from those previously received on the Contract. Allocating according to Option (B) does not permit You to specify different allocations for individual purchase payments. Due to the rebalancing
A-10


and reallocation requirements of Option (B), the entire Account Value will be immediately allocated according to the most recently provided allocation instructions.
Example:
Your Account Value is $100,000 and You have allocated 70% to the American Funds® Growth Division and 30% to the PIMCO Total Return Division using Option (B). You make a subsequent purchase payment of $5,000 and provide instructions to allocate that payment 100% to the BlackRock Bond Income Division. As a result, your entire Account Value of $105,000 will then be reallocated to the BlackRock Bond Income Division.
