ROWE PRICE RETIREMENT PLAN SERVICES MATERIAL ASSUMPTIONS: Excluding results for defined benefit plans and Social Security, the investment results shown in the various charts were developed with Monte Carlo modeling using the following material assumptions as well as those outlined the report. The underlying long-term expected annual return assumptions for the asset classes indicated in the charts are not historical returns. Rather, these are based on our best estimates for future long-term periods. Our annual return assumptions take into consideration the impact of reinvested dividends and capital gains. We use these expected returns, along with assumptions regarding the volatility for each asset class, as well as the intra-asset class correlations, to generate a set of simulated, random monthly returns for each asset class over the specified period of time. These monthly returns are then used to generate a thousand simulated market scenarios. These scenarios represent a spectrum of possible performance for the asset classes being modeled. The success rates are calculated based on these scenarios. We take taxes and required minimum distributions (RMD) into consideration, as described in the report, but we assume no early withdrawal penalties. Investment expenses in the form of an expense ratio are subtracted from the expected annual return of each asset class. These expenses are intended to represent the average expenses for a typical actively managed no-load fund within the peer group for each asset class modeled. The analysis does include all of a participant’s assets in the defined contribution plan(s), but categorizes them simply as individual stocks, diversified stock funds, bonds, and short-term investments. Other asset classes not considered or modeled may have characteristics similar or superior to those being analyzed. IMPORTANT: The Plan Meter projections or other information generated by a T. Rowe Price Investment Analysis Tool regarding the likelihood of various investment outcomes are hypothetical in nature, do not reflect 15 continued on page 16
Plan Meter’s innovative approach 16 CLI ENTS FI RST can help sponsors design plans and education strategies that can directly impact participants’ retirement income. plan meter can help you design a better plan actual investment results, and are not guarantees of future results. The simulations are based on a number of assumptions. There can be no assurance that the projected or simulated results will be achieved or sustained. The charts present only a range of possible outcomes. Results may • Quantifies the impact of proposed solutions to better vary with each use and over time, and such results may be better or worse than the simulated scenarios. Clients should be aware that the potential for loss (or gain) may be greater than inform decision-making demonstrated in the simulations. The replacement income (in current dollars) is the percentage of the employee’s current annual salary withdrawn in the first year of retirement; in each subsequent year, the amounts • Identifies targeted population segments that may withdrawn are adjusted to reflect a particular annual rate of inflation. The underlying long-term expected annual return assumptions (gross of fees) used in each of the Monte Carlo simulations benefit from additional tools and communications are 10% for large-cap individual stocks, 11% for mid-/small-cap individual stocks, 10% for stock funds, 6.5% for intermediate-term, investment-grade bonds, and 4.75% for money market/stable value investments. The following expense ratios are then applied to arrive at • Provides a baseline for ongoing discussion of net-of-fee expected returns: 0% for individual stocks, 1.211% for stock funds, 0.726% for intermediate term, investment-grade bonds, and 0.648% for money market/stable value plan objectives investments. The simulation success rate of each employee’s retirement planning strategy is identified for your plans in the Rules and Assumptions section on page 5 in the report. Simulation success is defined as having at least $1 remaining in the portfolio at the end of retirement. (The retirement period in the simulations is assumed to end at age 95.) The simulation success rate of a particular retirement strategy is determined by counting the number of simulation scenarios that result in at least $1 remaining, and dividing this figure by the total number of simulation scenarios of that strategy used. LIMITATIONS OF THE MODEL Material limitations of the investment model include: • Extreme market movements may occur more frequently than represented in our model. • Some asset classes have relatively limited histories. While future results for all asset classes in the model may materially differ from those assumed in our calculations, the future results for asset classes with limited histories may diverge to a greater extent than the future results of asset classes with longer track records. • Market crises can cause asset classes to perform similarly over time; reducing the accuracy of the projected portfolio volatility and returns. The model is based on the long-term behavior of the asset classes and therefore is less reliable for short-term periods. • The model assumes there is no correlation between asset class returns from month to month. This means that the model does not reflect the average periods of “bull”and “bear”markets, which can be longer than those modeled. • Inflation is assumed to be constant; variations in inflation levels are not reflected in our calculations. These results are not predictions, but they should be viewed as reasonable estimates. Source: T. Rowe Price Associates, Inc.

Monte Carlo Simulation CALCULATION DETAILS - These calculations were developed with an industry-recognized method called Monte Carlo simulation. In contrast to tools generating average outcomes, Monte Carlo analyses produce outcome ranges based on probability—thus incorporating future uncertainty. Material Assumptions include: • Results of the analysis are driven primarily by the assumed long-term, compound rates of return of each asset class in the scenarios. Return assumptions take into consideration the impact of reinvested dividends and capital gains. • The return assumption—plus assumptions about asset class volatility and correlations with other classes—are used to generate random monthly returns for each class over specified time periods. • These monthly returns are then used to generate a wide range of investment market scenarios, representing a spectrum of possible performance for the modeled asset classes. Success rates are based on these scenarios. • All initial withdrawal amounts—and all future contributions by active employees—are assumed to be pretax. • No penalties are deducted for early withdrawals if taken while investor is under age 59 1/2. • The model assumes required minimum distributions (RMD) begin in the year the participant attains age 70 1/2, even if the participant is actually still employed and exempt from taking RMDs until the year following retirement. Required amounts that exceed the planned withdrawals are reinvested in a taxable side account. 61

Correlation assumptions are less reliable for short periods. • The model assumes no month-to-month correlations among asset class returns. It does participants’ experiences not reflect the average periods of "bull" and "bear" markets, which can be longer than those modeled. • Inflation is assumed to be constant, so variations are not reflected in our calculations. • Insight to regulatory bodies on suboptimal • The analysis does not use all asset classes.
