Total Returns



Returns shown for periods of less than one year are not annualized. All returns displayed here are after Total Investment Expense of the investment option.

The Year-to-Date Change represents an unannualized rate of return (change in value) since the start of the year. All returns shown here are after the Total Investment Expense of the investment option.

In situations where the net and gross fund expense figures are different, the investment manager has contractually agreed to limit the investment option's expense. Differences may also be shown due to the investment manager choosing to pay certain expenses that would normally be payable by the fund. The gross fund expense figure does not reflect any waivers or caps on the fund. Performance when shown reflects the application of net expenses of the fund.

Returns represent past performance and do not guarantee future results. Share price, principal value, and return will vary and you may have a gain or loss when shares are sold. Current performance may be lower or higher than quoted. For more performance information, including the most recent month-end performance, visit principal.com.

Principal® charges the investment provider an annual Principal® Platform Connectivity Program (Program) fee of $1,000 for those investment option(s) with this designation. This Program fee helps to pay for a number of expenses incurred in connection with maintaining and adding investments to its platform, including but not limited to, expenses for IT systems, IT employees and required legal and compliance services. The investment provider will pay the Program fee for these investment options.

Investing involves risk, including possible loss of principal.

Fees and expenses are only one of several factors that participants and beneficiaries should consider when making investment decisions. The cumulative effect of fees and expenses can substantially reduce the growth of a participant's or beneficiary's retirement account. Participants and beneficiaries can visit the Employee Benefit Security Administration's website for an example demonstrating the long-term effect of fees and expenses.

Several investment companies have decided to impose redemption fees and/or transfer restrictions on certain plan and/or participant transactions. One or more of the investment options in your employer's retirement plan may be impacted. For more information, log into your account and visit us at at principal.com.

As a Featured Partner Investment Option, this fund may qualify a plan for discounted recordkeeping fees if a plan sponsor chooses to use it in a RetireView® model. The investment option is deemed by an independent 3(21) fiduciary as appropriate for use in a retirement plan through their proprietary screening process. The investment manager for this investment option is not paying an annual fee to Principal Life Insurance Company® to be included as a Featured Partner Investment Option.

Each index based investment option is invested in the stocks or bonds of the index it tracks. Performance of indexes reflects the unmanaged results for the market segment the selected stocks or bonds represent. There is no assurance an index based investment option will match the performance of the index tracked.

The risks associated with derivative investments include that the underlying security, interest rate, market index, or other financial asset will not move in the direction the Investment Adviser and/or Sub-Advisor anticipated, the possibility that there may be no liquid secondary market, the risk that adverse price movements in an instrument can result in a loss substantially greater than a fund's initial investment, the possibility that the counterparty may fail to perform its obligations; and the inability to close out certain hedged positions to avoid adverse tax consequences.

These results are for the investment options selected by your plan, and may be different from the results for other plans.

Past performance is not a guarantee of future results. Principal values and investment returns will fluctuate so that values upon redemption may be worth more or less than original costs. Total returns illustrated are net of investment expenses and management fees.
