Each Fund’s assets are allocated among the underlying Portfolios based on the Fund’s target retirement date (or income objective in the case of the Maturity Trust) in percentages that are weighted more heavily toward equity securities when the target retirement date is further off and fixed income securities and money market instruments when the target retirement date is near or in the past. Although there can be no assurance as to investment results, the Funds are designed so that both the risk of the investment and the potential return are reduced as the target retirement date approaches. Retirement Advantage Trusts seek to maximize returns while maintaining a level of risk appropriate for a person planning to retire on or about the calendar year designated in each trust’s name.
