Total Returns

Investment results shown represent historical performance and do not guarantee future results. Investment returns and principal values fluctuate with changes in interest rates and other market conditions so the value, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than original costs. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data shown.

In situations where the net and gross total investment expense figures are different, the mutual fund or the underlying fund in which a Separate Account invests has waived/capped a portion of its management fees through the date displayed in the waiver expiration date or contractual cap expiration date column. Differences may also be shown due to the fund family choosing to pay certain expenses that would normally be payable by the fund. Returns displayed are based on net total investment expense.

DI Blended Index (Linked) composition: March 1, 2022 and after, 100% Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index (covers the U.S. investment-grade fixed rate bond market and represents securities that are domestic, taxable, and dollar denominated), for the period prior to March 1, 2022, 80% Bloomberg Global Aggregate Index (a broad-based measure of global investment-grade fixed income) and 20% MSCI World Value Index NTR (includes large- and mid-cap securities across developed markets that exhibit overall value style), and for the period prior to January 1, 2019, 40% Bloomberg Global Credit Index (represents global investment-grade, fixed-rate, taxable corporate and government-related bonds), 30% Bloomberg Global High Yield Index (represents the global high yield bond market), and 30% MSCI ACWI Value Index NTR (a market cap weighted index that is a broad measure of global equity-markets). Net Total Return (NTR) includes dividends after the deduction of withholding taxes. Fixed-income investment options are subject to interest rate risk, and their value will decline as interest rates rise. Lower-rated securities are subject to additional credit and default risks. Risks associated with preferred securities differ from risks inherent with other investments. In particular, in the event of bankruptcy, a company's preferred securities are senior to common stock but subordinated to all other types of corporate debt. International investing involves increased risks due to currency fluctuations, political or social instability, and differences in accounting standards, these risks are magnified in emerging markets. REIT securities are subject to risk factors associated with the real estate industry and tax factors of REIT registration. 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.
