Please retain this supplement and keep it with the prospectus for future reference. QUALIFIED CONTRACTS UNDER SECTION 403(b) OF THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE Recently, the IRS announced new regulations affecting 403(b) plans and arrangements. As part of these regulations, employers will need to meet certain requirements in order for their employees' annuity contracts that fund these programs to retain a tax deferred status under 403(b). These regulations are generally effective January 1, 2009. Prior to the new rules, transfers of one annuity contract to another would not result in a loss of tax deferred status under 403(b) under certain conditions (so-called "90-24 transfers"). The new regulations have the following effect regarding transfers: (1) a newly issued contract funded by a transfer which is completed after September 24, 2007, is subject to the employer requirements referred to above; (2) additional purchase payments made after September 24, 2007, to a contract that was funded by a 90-24 transfer on or before September 24, 2007, may subject the contract to this new employer requirement. If your Contract was issued previously in a 90-24 transfer completed on or before September 24, 2007, we urge you to consult with your tax advisor prior to making additional purchase payments (if permitted). *** Supplement to the following variable annuity contract prospectuses dated April 30, 2007 (as supplemented): Index Annuity Marquis Portfolios MetLife Access Annuity MetLife Access Select Annuity Portfolio Architect Annuity Portfolio Architect L Variable Annuity Portfolio Architect Select Annuity Portfolio Architect XTRA Annuity Premier Advisers (Class I) Annuity Premier Advisers (Class II) Annuity Premier Advisers AssetManager Annuity Premier Advisers II Annuity Premier Advisers III (Series I) Annuity Premier Advisers L (Series I) Annuity Premier Advisers L (Series II) Annuity PrimElite Annuity Scudder Advocate Advisor - ST1 Variable Annuity Scudder Advocate Advisor Annuity Scudder Advocate Rewards Annuity Vintage 3 Variable Annuity Vintage Access Annuity Vintage Annuity Vintage II (Series II) Variable Annuity Vintage II Variable Annuity Vintage L Variable Annuity Vintage XTRA (Series II) Annuity Vintage XTRA Annuity October 2007
