MML Series Investment Fund

To Our Shareholders

The U.S. Economy Continues to Expand

We are now eight years into the current U.S. economic expansion, and judging
from continued strong performance in the first half of 1998, this should be
another year of impressive economic growth. A combination of forces shaped the
first half: strong economic fundamentals, favorable price performance, a
dramatically improved landscape for the nation's budget (now anticipating a
surplus of $80 billion or more for fiscal year 1998), the Federal Reserve's
steady hold on monetary policy, a competitive wage and price environment, and
the economic and financial crisis in Southeast Asia.

    
Increased spending for consumption, housing and producers' durable equipment
drove expansion in the first six months of the year. Households spent more,
encouraged by low unemployment and growth in personal income. Business
inventories also rose sharply early in the year, contributing to the economy's
growth in the first quarter. Inventory growth has since slowed significantly and
detracted from economic gains in the second quarter. The only other drag on
performance was flat net exports, almost certainly a backlash of the Asian
crisis.      

Amidst Troubles in Asia

The economic and financial problems that have plagued Southeast Asia for the
past year have continued to make for volatile and uncertain times in the U.S.
and global financial markets. The key players in the Asian region are Japan and
China, both facing economic hardship and currency devaluation. Though Japan has
been working to restore its failed banking system, the nation faces the bigger
problem of stimulating its economy - now with a budget deficit near 6 percent of
Gross Domestic Product. Clearly, Japan's financial woes are far from being
solved and, as such, the world's economies and markets will sit with a watchful
eye over the coming months.

Large Capitalization U.S. Stocks Soar

During the first six months of 1998, the U.S. stock market continued to make
great strides, with large capitalization stocks leading the pack. As of June 30,
1998, the S&P 500 was up 17.7 percent, versus the unmanaged small stock Russell
2000 Index which returned a modest 4.9 percent.

The `flight to quality' that the market has been experiencing since last year
has continued to benefit large cap growth stocks, while hindering the
performance of smaller, value-oriented stocks. As investors became more
concerned about deteriorating conditions in Asia and the possible impact on
commodity prices, competition and economic activity, they favored large-cap
stocks over small-cap stocks for their durability and liquidity.

Bond Returns Varied

    
The Treasury yield curve continued to flatten over the past six months, and as a
result, corporate bonds, mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities delivered
varied, and less impressive, returns than U.S. Treasuries.      

Even as corporate spreads widened, low interest rates and investor cash flow
were positive for the corporate bond market. New issuance of investment-grade
corporate bonds was extremely high - $197 billion in the first six months of
1998, compared to $272 billion issued in total for 1997.

Managing the Risks of Abroad

    
The same forces that drove the economy's growth in the first half of the year
will shape this year's outcome. However, the instability in Asia, which is far
from being resolved, is becoming more influential to the behavior of the U.S.
dollar, the economy and the financial markets. As the events in Asia unfold -
good or bad - the domestic markets may experience increased levels of
volatility.      

                                       2

How MassMutual and Babson manage these risk factors is to focus, as we always
have, on building portfolios with carefully selected, well-researched stocks and
bonds that represent long-term opportunities. This approach is designed to help
protect capital in bear markets and reap the rewards of bull markets.

MML EQUITY FUND

How did the Fund perform during the first half of 1998?

    
During the first half of 1998, the Fund lagged the S&P 500 returning 8.45
percent for the period.* Most value managers underperformed the S&P 500, which
was up 17.7 percent for the six months ended June 30, 1998. There is always a
conflict in the market place between the two distinct styles of investing:
growth versus value. The growth style has had the upper hand for the past four
and a half -- years the longest period of relative outperformance by one of the
styles since the mid 70's. The odds increasingly favor a reversion to the mean
at some future point. We believe buying value at this point is buying some
protection. It may be the safer approach at this juncture of the market.      

How did the stock market progress during the six-month period?

    
It has been a continuation of the best of all possible worlds for investors,
with high returns from common stocks the order of the day. Most of the large
capitalization, high multiple, low income producing securities had an
outstanding six-month period. There has been money coming into the market
seeking quality. Foreign investors have been moving into the U.S. market even
though their own markets have done reasonably well. So it has been positive in
terms of liquidity for the overall market, both stocks and bonds.      

    
At the same time, most value managers lagged the market because of a divergence
created in the market by growing concerns about deteriorating economic
conditions in Asia and the impact that those conditions would have on worldwide
commodity prices, competition and economic activity in Europe and the U.S. It
led investors to have concerns about any companies that had a cyclical
orientation, and it forced investors to focus primarily on the largest, most
assured high-growth companies, regardless of their valuations.      

In what areas of the stock market did you focus your investment selection and
why?

We added moderately to our holdings in the chemical industry, with our focus on
specialty chemical companies that are experiencing stable demand and are able to
generate ample cash flow that can be used to increase dividends and buy back
shares. One new stock, Bemis Corporation, a food-packaging manufacturer, has had
a pattern of growing demand, revenues and earnings. It is an extremely well run
company that dominates its markets and does not have the cyclical
characteristics typical of chemical companies.

    
We have also added Englehard Corporation, a specialty chemical producer that
makes catalytic converters. This stock has done better than other chemical
industry stocks over the last six months because of investor perceptions that
this is an improving company with a very productive research effort and strong
growth prospects.      

    
We sometimes buy against trends -- in this case, buying chemical companies when
there is a broad perception in the market that chemical companies are not
attractive. We share that perception about commodity chemical companies but our
focus in this particular industry is on specialty chemical companies that
currently represent exceptional value. Currently, specialty chemical companies
are selling at between 50 percent and 70 percent of the market multiple.
Normally, at their peak, they sell at 1.5 times the market multiple.      

How has the Fund benefited from this strategy?

The premise of our stock selection is to try to find good companies that are
reasonably valued in the marketplace. Typically, the stocks discount is a result
of an earnings glitch or a change in investor perception that we determine to be
temporary. As long as a stock remains undervalued and the prospect for recovery
in the marketplace remains, we will stay with it. Ultimately, as these factors
change over time, the Fund should see the payoff.

What changes to the portfolio do you anticipate between now and year-end?

    
We do not anticipate making wholesale changes to the portfolio over the near
term. While this recent period of relative underperformance has indeed been
disappointing, shareholders should take comfort in the substantial values that
exist among the high quality companies comprising the portfolio.      

    
Going forward, our strategy is to remain alert to upgrade opportunities where
more immediate and clearly definable improvement in earnings prospects can be
obtained for at least equivalent value and where the stock might be closer to
the value recognition payoff. The portfolio will continue to possess the quality
and value characteristics that we believe offer the potential of sound
investment returns at relatively low risk.      

Looking ahead, what is your outlook for the economy and the Fund in the second
half of 1998?

    
We believe the second half of the year will be an environment in which we will
see a slowing of overall economic activity. We continue to see the impact of the
Asian markets on worldwide economies and the environment will be one of
difficult earnings progress; that is, we will probably see a period where any
revisions to earnings forecasts are in a downward direction.     

                                        4
<PAGE>

     
We do, however, believe that this will be an environment where liquidity
continues to flow into the market. Investors still have a preference for common
stocks. Equities have performed well and investors are acknowledging that. It
should be a good environment for the capital markets, although it is
unreasonable to expect that the stock market will have another 17% gain over the
second half of the year. It is probably going to be a more difficult environment
to generate the kind of performance numbers the overall markets have shown, but
overall it is still a very good environment for investing in financial assets.

accounts invested in the Funds which, if included, would decrease the
performance figures.

MML MONEY MARKET FUND

How did the Fund perform during the first half of 1998?

The Fund delivered a total return of 2.56 percent(*) for the six-month period,
outpacing Lipper Analytical's Money Market Fund average, which returned 2.42
percent. Over the past six months, our total rate of return for the trailing
12-month period consistently surpassed the Lipper average.

How would you characterize your market environment during that six-month period?

Low interest rates continued to help fuel the U.S. expansion, now in its eighth
year. The benefit of low interest rates has been most evident in housing, where
low mortgage rates have made buying a home more affordable. Housing had a
positive impact on the economy through increased construction and consumer
buying of everything from new furniture and appliances to home fix-up goods. The
Federal Fund's rate (the interest rate charged by banks to other banks for
overnight loans) was held steady at 5.5 percent.

During the first quarter, the economy expanded at a rate of 5.4 percent, the
fastest we have seen in two years. Inflation remained almost imperceptible, as
increased productivity growth has helped offset the tight labor markets.
Unemployment fell as low as 4.3 percent--comparable to the unemployment rate in
Japan. This was truly a record-breaking event, since the U.S. unemployment rate
has historically run four or more percentage points higher than in Japan.

Another record-breaking event is that the federal government is approaching its
first surplus in decades. The 30-Year U.S. Treasury bond fell during the first
half of this year to the lowest yield--5.57 percent--since the government began
selling the 30-year bond slightly over 20 years ago.

The Consumer Price Index rose at a 1.5 annual percentage rate during the first
half of 1998, down modestly from 1997. Meanwhile, the Producer Price Index has
fallen this year, pushed lower by the strength of the U.S. dollar and lower
prices for imported goods due to the problems in Japan.

What was the Fund's portfolio positioning during that time, and how did it
benefit the Fund?

The Fund continues to be fully invested in high quality Tier 1 securities. The
portfolios' assets grew at a modest 3 percent during the first half of 1998,
ending at $145 million as of June 30, 1998.

The average maturity for the Fund, which we try to keep in line with the
IBC/Donohue Universe (an index that tracks the performance, assets, average
maturities and portfolio composition of taxable and tax-free money market funds)
ranged between 52 and 58 days. At the end of June, the Fund's average maturity
was 58 days, in line with the IBC benchmark. We lengthened our average life in
March when commercial paper rates increased slightly. For the most part, short
rates were fairly static during the first half of 1998, with the commercial
paper rate for the six months ended in June ranging from 5.60 to 5.72 percent.
Increasing our average life in the spring helped us take advantage of the higher
yields in the market, and put us in line with IBC/Donohue universe.

What is your outlook for the second half of 1998?

The U.S. domestic economy continues without any real problems. However, the
Asian problems that started in 1997 continue to be a controlling factor of our
market's direction. The Japanese Yen and the Japanese economy continue to be
pummeled. While we are reporting our first surplus in 29 years, Japan is
reporting its worst budget deficit since World War II. Obviously, one big
concern in Japan is the bank loan problem, which is estimated to be about five
times worse than the U.S. banking crisis of the 1980s which was also due to loan
deterioration. We also have the other Asian economies--Thailand, Korea, Russia
and China--to watch in the second half.

The second half of 1998 will likely be a continuation of the `flight to quality'
story of the first half--that is, a flight out of the Asian markets and a flight
into U.S. Treasuries and the U.S. dollar.

MML MANAGED BOND FUND

How did the Fund perform during the first half of 1998?
    
We have seen good performance from the Fund so far in 1998. Managed Bond Fund's
year-to-date total return through June 30, 1998, was 4.18 percent.* This
compares favorably versus the Lehman Brothers Government/Corporate Index's (an
index which tracks the performance of U.S. Government Treasury and agency
securities, and corporate and Yankee bonds) return of 4.17 percent. A major
factor contributing to the Fund's performance for the first six months was
coupon income offered by securities, which offered a yield advantage over
Treasuries.     

What were the most important developments in your market during the past six
months?
    
Events in Asia have been at center stage since October 1997 and continue to be
the most significant factor influencing global financial markets. During the
first half of this year Japan's economic slump has worsened and its currency has
weakened materially. The potential of China devaluing its currency has
heightened, as Japan remains unsettled. There has been an accordion affect
between Asian financial markets and the U.S. bond markets for the past six
months. U.S. Treasury yield levels have tended to fall with Asian weakness and
to rise with Asian optimism. Another consequence has been a steadily flattening
U.S. yield curve. Currently, most Treasury bonds now yield about the same as the
Federal Fund's rate (the interest rate charged by banks to other banks for
overnight loans) of 5.5 percent.      

Corporate bonds in particular, and mortgage-backed securities to a lesser
extent, have had spread volatility mirroring Asian volatility. Corporate spreads
have been vulnerable to the simultaneous double pressure of worries about credit
quality and new issues supply surges when Asia has weakened and interest rates
have fallen. Supply of new investment grade corporates have grown to slightly
under $200 billion this year, compared to $272 billion in all of 1997 (source:
Securities Data Corporation). Spread widening has contributed to marked
underperformance of corporates this year when compared to U.S. Treasuries.
    
Mortgage-backed securities have been subject to concerns about prepayments when
interest rates have fallen and as a result many market participants are now
demanding wider spreads on mortgage backed products. Due to the yield advantage
offered by mortgages they slightly outperformed Treasuries over the past six
months.     

How was the portfolio positioned during the period, and how did this help the
Fund achieve its investment objective?
    
The portfolio was positioned very similar to year-end 1997. We continued our
commitment to spread assets, that is, those securities that offer a substantial
yield advantage over Treasuries. As of June 30 approximately 74.2 percent of our
assets were invested in a combination of agency, mortgage-backed securities,
asset-backed securities and corporate securities. This compares with year-end
when 86.2 percent of our assets were invested in these sectors. 

While owning corporate bonds hurt us to some extent, it also benefited 
us -- specifically, issues with longer maturities have benefited from declining
Treasury rates. Shorter duration issues have also performed well as a yield
alternative to Treasuries. New purchases in the account include the following
names: Boston Scientific, Lasmo PLC (an oil & gas exploration and production
company), ICI Wilmington, Dana Corp and Fletcher Challenge. We also added a
couple of issues with longer maturities: Hershey Corp and Dover Corporation,
both single A rated issues.     

Sales of corporate issues occurred as aggressive bids were received and/or as
value was realized. Issues sold included Rite Aid, Hercules, Petro Geo-Services,
and Time Warner. Many corporations tendered bonds this year as they restructured
their companies. Tendered issues were done at very tight levels compared to U.S.
Treasuries. Tendered issues included: Foodbrands, W.R. Grace, and two issues of
U.S. West.

What changes to the portfolio do you anticipate between now and year-end?
    
We believe that we are poised to take advantage of any spread widening given our
holdings of Treasuries and money market securities. This will allow us to
purchase assets that offer a yield advantage versus Treasuries as attractive
pricing is achieved.      

We do believe that investors will need to be more diligent about credit quality,
but not in the immediate future. We believe that given our analytical strengths
we are well poised to meet this challenge. 

The flattening yield curve is another area to give one pause. Extending duration
along the curve becomes difficult as shorter securities are yielding about the
same as longer maturity issues. We will want to make sure that for the risk that
we are taking we are getting paid for that risk in a commensurate level.

Looking ahead, what is your outlook for the economy and the Fund in the second
half?
    
The most likely outcome in the U.S. continues to be one of moderate growth and
low inflation. We believe that corporate bonds at now wider spread levels
continue to offer fundamental value. We are still comfortable with our holdings
of corporates, however at these wider levels we view this as an opportunity to
selectively add to our positions in this sector. As mentioned earlier the lower
interest environment brings many challenges to all market sectors, particularly
the mortgage-backed sector and this sector will be closely monitored for new
opportunities.

MML BLEND FUND

How did the Fund perform during the first half of 1998?
    
During the first half of 1998, large capitalization growth stocks continued to
dominate the marketplace. This put a negative spin on our performance given that
more than half of the portfolio was invested in value-oriented stocks. The Fund
delivered a net return of 6.96 percent,* finishing the period behind the 9.88
percent return of the Lipper Balanced Fund Index, an unmanaged index of stock
and bonds.

As a balanced portfolio of stocks and bonds, what was the Fund's percentage
allocation in each of these categories at the end of the period?

Our positioning at the end of June was 56 percent in stocks, 15 percent in bonds
and 29 percent in money market securities. This is a change from our positioning
at the end of 1997, when stocks, bonds and money market securities represented
61, 19 and 20 percent, respectively.     

The equity component was lowered in March to reflect the fact that common stocks
are currently at very high valuations. The bond component of the Fund was
correspondingly modestly increased.

Within your stock positioning, in what types of stocks did you focus your
investment selection during the period, and how did this contribute to fund
performance?

In contrast to our success in the healthcare sector in 1997, we did not benefit
from our healthcare holdings in the first six months of 1998. Three of our 10
largest stock holdings were healthcare companies: Bristol-Myers, Schering-Plough
and Becton, Dickinson. These were not our best performers as we closed the
second quarter.

Other sources of the Fund's underperformance across several different sectors
included AMP, an electrical equipment and electronics company; Dover
Corporation, a machinery company; Hewlett-Packard, a computer and office
equipment provider; and Minnesota Mining & Manufacturing, a diversified
manufacturer of industrial, commercial and health care products.
    
In general, our stock portfolio did not perform well because investors favored
higher growth and lower dividend-paying companies. When you review history in
terms of the two distinct styles of investing -- growth versus value -- it shows
a cyclical inverse relationship between the two styles. At present, the growth
style has been outperforming value investing in one of the longest periods of
relative outperformance by one of the styles.     

How did you position the bond portfolio, and what impact did this have on the
Fund?

Within our bond portfolio, our sector diversification remained fairly consistent
with last year. We continue to focus on investment-grade fixed income
securities. As of June 30, 1998, at least half of our bond holdings were AAA
rated corporate bonds, while the remainder was invested in A and BBB rated
bonds. Therefore, the average credit quality rating of our bond portion was AA.

Do you expect to make any significant changes to the Fund's allocation in the
near-term?

We continue to carefully study our exposure to the equity markets. However, we
are reluctant to lower our stock component any further because our holdings are
undervalued and the market has not yet recognized what we believe to be their
true worth. We are waiting to see appropriate valuations before we make any
decisions to sell.

Looking ahead, what is your outlook for the economy and the Fund in the second
half of 1998?
    
In spite of the recent strong performance from large, growth-oriented stocks, we
believe that our value-oriented stock selection strategy continues to make sense
for the Blend Fund. There is a tremendous amount of value in the stock component
of the portfolio, and we expect that this -- in combination with our fixed
income holdings -- will benefit the Fund and our shareholders over the long
term.

MML Series Investment Fund

Notes To Financial Statements
    
(Unaudited)     

    
1. HISTORY     

MML Series Investment Fund (the "MML Trust") is registered under the Investment
Company Act of 1940 as a no-load, registered open end, management investment
company. MML Equity Fund, MML Money Market Fund, MML Managed Bond Fund and MML
Blend Fund (the "Funds") are four series of shares of the MML Trust. The MML
Trust is organized as a business trust under the laws of the Commonwealth of
Massachusetts pursuant to an Agreement and Declaration of Trust.

The MML Trust was established by Massachusetts Mutual Life Insurance Company
("MassMutual") for the purpose of providing vehicles for the investment of
assets of various separate investment accounts established by MassMutual and by
life insurance companies which are subsidiaries of MassMutual. Shares of the MML
Trust are not offered to the general public.

    
2. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES      

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed
consistently by each Fund in the preparation of the financial statements in
conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

    
   A. Investment Valuation      

    Equity securities are valued on the basis of valuations furnished by a
    pricing service, authorized by the Board of Trustees, which provides the
    last reported sale price for securities listed on a national securities
    exchange, or on the NASDAQ national market system. If securities are
    unlisted, or there is no reported sale price, the bid price of the prior
    trade date will be used. Long-term bonds are valued on the basis of
    valuations furnished by a pricing service, authorized by the Board of
    Trustees, which determines valuations taking into account appropriate
    factors such as institutional-size, trading in similar groups of securities,
    yield, quality, coupon rate, maturity, type of issue, trading
    characteristics and other market data.

    For MML Equity Fund, MML Managed Bond Fund, and MML Blend Fund, short-term
    securities with more than sixty days to maturity from the date of purchase
    are valued at market and short-term securities having a maturity from the
    date of purchase of sixty days or less are valued at amortized cost. MML
    Money Market Fund's portfolio securities are valued at amortized cost in
    accordance with a rule of the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to
    which MML Money Market Fund must adhere to certain conditions. It is the
    intention of MML Money Market Fund to maintain a per share net asset value
    of $1.00.

    
   B. Accounting For Investments      

    Investment transactions are accounted for on trade date. Dividend income is
    recorded on the ex-dividend date. Interest income is recorded on the accrual
    basis. Premiums and discounts on short-term securities are amortized in
    determining interest income.

    The cost basis of long-term bonds is not adjusted for amortization of
    premium or accrual of discount since MML Managed Bond Fund and MML Blend
    Fund do not generally intend to hold such investments until maturity;
    however, the MML Trust has elected to accrue for financial reporting
    purposes, certain discounts which are required to be accrued for federal
    income tax purposes.

    Realized gains and losses on investment transactions and unrealized
    appreciation and depreciation of investments are reported for financial
    statement and federal income tax purposes on the identified cost method.

    
   C. Federal Income Tax      

    The MML Trust has established a policy for each of the Funds to comply with
    the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated
    investment companies. As a result, the Funds will not be subject to federal
    income tax on any net investment income and any net capital gains to the
    extent they are distributed or are deemed to have been distributed to
    shareholders. Distributions are determined in accordance with income tax
    regulations which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles.
    These differences are primarily due to the deferral of wash sale losses, and
    paydowns on certain mortgage-backed securities. As a result, net investment
    income (loss) and net realized gain (loss) on investment transactions for a
    reporting period may differ significantly from distributions during such
    period. Accordingly, the Funds may periodically make reclassifications among
    certain of their capital accounts without impacting the net asset value of
    the Funds.

Notes To Financial Statements (Continued)

    
   D. Forward Commitments

    Each Fund may purchase or sell securities on a "when issued" or delayed
    delivery or on a forward commitment basis. The Funds use forward commitments
    to manage interest rate exposure or as a temporary substitute for purchasing
    or selling particular debt securities. Forward commitments are not used for
    purposes of trading. Settlement for securities purchased on a forward
    commitment basis can take place a month or more after the date of the
    transaction. The Fund generally does not take delivery on these forward
    commitments, but such commitments are instead settled with offsetting
    transactions. When a forward commitment contract is closed, the Funds record
    a realized gain or loss. Forward commitments involve a risk of loss if the
    value of the security to be purchased declines prior to the settlement date.
    The Funds could also be exposed to loss if they cannot close out their
    forward commitments because of an illiquid secondary market, or the
    inability of counterparties to perform. The Fund monitors exposure to ensure
    counterparties are credit worthy and concentration of exposure is minimized.
    The Funds instruct the custodian to segregate liquid high quality assets in
    a separate account with a current market value at least equal to the amount
    of its forward purchase commitments. The price of the underlying security
    and the date when the securities will be delivered and paid for are fixed at
    the time the transaction is negotiated. The value of the forward commitment
    is determined by management using a commonly accepted pricing model and
    fluctuates based upon changes in the value of the underlying security and
    market repo rates. Such rates equate the counterparty's cost to purchase and
    finance the underlying security to the earnings received on the security and
    forward delivery proceeds. The Funds record on a daily basis the unrealized
    appreciation/depreciation based upon changes in the value of the forward
    commitment. At June 30, 1998, the cost (value) of forward commitments to
    purchase securities amounted to $4,783,171 ($4,783,488) for the MML Managed
    Bond.

   E. Estimates      

    The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally
    accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and
    assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and
    disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial
    statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the
    reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

    
3. CAPITAL LOSS CARRYFORWARD

The accumulated net realized loss on investments for the MML Money Market Fund
results in a capital loss carryforward of $9,249 which is available for federal
income tax purposes to offset future capital gains. Of the total carryforward,
$1,639 expires December 31, 1998, $1,204 expires December 31, 2000, $201 expires
December 31, 2001, $5,364 expires December 31, 2002 and $841 expires December
31, 2003.

The accumulated net realized loss on investments for the MML Managed Bond Fund
results in a capital loss carry forward of $1,163,656 which is available for
federal income tax purposes to offset future capital gains. Of the total
carryforward, $840,829 expires December 31, 2002 and $322,826 expires December
31, 2004.

4. INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT FEE

MassMutual provides all investment advisory, management and administrative
services needed by the Funds. For acting as such, MassMutual receives a
quarterly fee from each Fund at the annual rate of .50% of the first
$100,000,000 of the average daily net asset value of each Fund, .45% of the next
$200,000,000, .40% of the next $200,000,000, and .35% of any excess over
$500,000,000.

MassMutual has entered into investment sub-advisory agreements with David L.
Babson and Company, Inc. ("Babson"), a wholly-owned subsidiary of DLB
Acquisition Corporation which is a controlled subsidiary of MassMutual. The
agreements provide that Babson manage the assets of MML Equity Fund and the
assets of the Equity Sector of the MML Blend Fund. MassMutual pays Babson a
quarterly fee equal to an annual rate of .13% of the average daily net asset
value of MML Equity Fund and the Equity Sector of MML Blend Fund.

MassMutual has agreed, at least through April 30, 1999, to bear the expenses of
the Funds to the extent that the aggregate expenses (excluding each Fund's
management fee, interest, taxes, brokerage commissions and extraordinary
expenses) incurred during each Fund's fiscal year exceed .11% of the average
daily net asset value of each Fund for such year. For the period ended June 30,
1998, MassMutual was not required to reimburse the Funds for any expenses.
