You will be invested in the fund that most closely matches the year you plan to retire (generally age 65). For example, if you will turn age 65 in 2044, your contributions would be directed to the Vanguard Target Date 2045 Retirement Fund. To help reduce risk as you move through your career and into retirement, the fund automatically readjusts the mix of stocks, bonds and other asset types to a more conservative mix as the fund s target date approaches. Keep in mind that as with all mutual funds, the principal value in a target date fund is not guaranteed. Also, please note that the target date of the Vanguard Target Date Retirement Fund is an approximate date when investors may plan to begin withdrawing from the fund.* Birth Year Investment Fund Name Symbol Income Institutional VITRX Institutional VIRTX Institutional VITVX Institutional VITWX Institutional VRIVX Institutional VTTWX Institutional VITFX Institutional VIRSX Institutional VITLX Institutional VTRLX Institutional VIVLX 1993 Present 2060 Institutional VILVX 1 TIAA Traditional Annuity is a guaranteed insurance contract and not an investment for federal securities law purposes.

In addition to the fees and expenses associated with the target date funds, there is exposure to the fees and expenses associated with the underlying mutual funds as well. Questions? Call or visit 4
