2 PortfolioXpress®: a customized target-date allocation service
How does it work? • PortfolioXpress provides essential diversification through an automatic investment mix based on the specific investment choices included in your investment line-up. • Once participants select PortfolioXpress, their account balances are diversified among your plan’s investment choices based on their selected retirement date and risk preference (if this option is made available by the sponsor). • Participant accounts are automatically rebalanced each quarter, gradually adjusting the asset allocation towards a more conservative stance along a glide path. • The glide path contains 21 model portfolios. Each model has a target allocation to each asset class and covers a range of years to retirement. Model Construction • PortfolioXpress will use the investment choices within different stock and bond asset classes to create the model portfolios. • Target Maturity Funds, Strategic Allocation Funds, Balanced Funds and certain specialty funds will not be included. • Allocation strategies are all formula driven. PortfolioXpress® is a registered service mark of Transamerica Retirement Solutions Corporation. 2

5 PortfolioXpress®: a customized target-date approach
Offers three risk preferences to participants to tailor their investment strategy if the option is offered by the sponsor Sponsors can opt to offer the risk preference functionality to participants. If selected by the sponsor, participants have a choice of 3 risk profiles: Approximate Equity Exposure at retirement Conservative Lifetime: 40%, Retirement: 20% Moderate Lifetime: 52%, Retirement: 30% Aggressive Lifetime: 60%, Retirement: 35% Each risk profile determines a different starting point and evolution on the glide path An online questionnaire can be used by participants to help participants determine their risk profile, and the selected risk preference will affect current and future portfolios within the PortfolioXpress service Moderate risk preference will be the default setting Conservative risk preference will achieve a portfolio that lies farther down the glide path (i.e., closer to retirement) than if they selected Moderate Aggressive, will achieve a portfolio that lies farther up the glide path (i.e., further from retirement) than if they selected a moderate glide path. This allows participants to tailor their investment strategy to fit their needs without having to alter their expected retirement date If sponsor does not offer a risk preference, a Moderate risk preference will be used Conservative Moderate Aggressive

6 PortfolioXpress®: a glide path to or through retirement
Portfolio Glide Path Comparison Sponsor can choose between different glide paths. Fund usage Stocks and Bonds asset classes are used in PortfolioXpress (PX) Balanced, Employer Stock, SDBA’s, Strategic Allocation Funds, Target Maturity Funds are not used by PortfolioXpress Lifetime Glide Path assumes that upon retirement your participants may live an additional 25 years or more and may have the sole responsibility to fund expenses from their retirement savings. Longevity risk, the risk of outliving their assets, is considered a major concern, which can be managed with a continued focus on capital growth through equity investing during retirement. • Retirement Glide Path focuses more heavily on capital preservation and adjusts asset allocations to an approximate 30% equity position upon reaching the selected retirement age, and then glides to the most conservative stance, an approximate 10% equity position, over the next twenty years after the retirement date.

10 Questions

11 Disclosures PortfolioXpress® is intended as investment education. Transamerica is not a plan fiduciary and does not provide investment advice. PortfolioXpress® is a service which presents a series of asset allocation models up to and through a designated retirement year. The participant is solely responsible for selecting the retirement year and risk preference (if applicable). In implementing the service, the participant agrees to each of the asset allocation mixes, and each of the automated rebalancing transactions that will take place over time within the account as the participant approaches a selected retirement year. If participants sign up, they should carefully review the service agreement for details on fees and other terms and conditions that may apply. Retirement date portfolios are subject to the same risks as the underlying asset classes in which they invest. The higher the portfolio’s allocation to stocks the greater the risk. The principal value of the portfolio is never guaranteed, including at and after the target date. Diversification does not guarantee against loss in a falling market. The ‘target retirement date’ is the date in which participants intended to retire and start receiving distributions from the plan. A target retirement portfolio’s asset allocation becomes more conservative over time, meaning that the percentage of assets allocated to stocks will decrease while the percentage of assets allocated to bonds and other fixed income investments will increase.
