SSGA Target Date Funds are designed for investors expecting to retire around the year indicated in each fund’s name. When choosing a Fund, investors should consider whether they anticipate retiring significantly earlier or later than age 65 even if such investors retire on or near a fund’s approximate target date. There may be other considerations relevant to fund selection and investors should select the fund that best meets their individual circumstances and investment goals. The funds' asset allocation strategy becomes increasingly conservative as it approaches the target date and beyond. The investment risks of each Fund change over time as its asset allocation changes.

Participants who redeem from the fund prior to the QLAC purchase will not be eligible for the QLAC benefits. The QLAC is subject to regulatory limitations. The QLAC purchase is subject to market availability and cannot be guaranteed in any given year. The QLAC is not provided by or guaranteed by SSGA or any affiliate of SSGA.
