<h4>About MassMutual Life Insurance Company<u></u><u></u></h4>
<h5><a href="https://www.massmutual.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">www.massmutual.com</a></h5>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">MassMutual was founded on May 15, 1851. And from the beginning, we’ve had a single purpose: to help people secure their future and protect the ones they love. More than 170 years later, that commitment remains our guiding principle. It’s behind everything we do and every decision we make. It’s how we continue to deliver products and services to help our policyowners and customers achieve their financial goals and protect those who matter most. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">As a mutual company, we operate for the benefit of our members and participating policyowners. We manage the company with a focus on their long-term interests and are not subject to the expectations of Wall Street analysts or stockholders. Throughout our history, this focus on the long-term has helped us provide financial and retirement security to millions of people. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">We believe diversity includes the broadest possible range of cultures, backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives, while inclusion means creating an environment where all people and ideas are valued. Our goal is to welcome everyone — customers, employees, suppliers, and visitors alike. Our commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion does not waver and is not negotiable.  </span></p>

<h4>Additional Information<u></u></h4>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">At Massachusetts Mutual Life Insurance Company, (“MassMutual”), we believe diversity includes the broadest possible range of cultures, backgrounds, experiences and perspectives, while inclusion means creating an environment where all people and ideas are valued. Our goal is to welcome everyone — customers, employees, suppliers and visitors alike. Our passion for diversity and inclusion is not only about doing the right thing; it also helps us achieve our purpose to help people secure their future and protect the ones they love, inclusive of race, gender, age, abilities, place of birth, religion and who they love.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">We place a strong emphasis on relationship-building activities, like engaging diverse employees in mentoring and networking opportunities and efforts that drive business impact. Our Business Resource Groups (BRGs) are internal diversity, equity and inclusion champions who support recruitment, community outreach, awareness and education, brand recognition, marketing, retention and professional development. We currently have eight national BRGs representing African Americans, Asians, Latinx, members of the LGBTQ community, individuals with disabilities and their caregivers, armed forces members, veterans and military family members, young professionals and women leaders.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">At MassMutual o</span><span style="font-weight: 400;">ur commitment to getting better is why we’ve signed onto initiatives like the CEO Action for Diversity &amp; Inclusion and Paradigm for Parity and participate in the Boston Women’s Workforce Council. Through these initiatives, we’re joining businesses across the nation seeking to advance diversity and inclusion in the workplace. It’s all part of our longstanding commitment to do what’s right for our customers, our workforce, and our communities</span></p></div>
