Investors may obtain performance data current to the most recent month-end and quarter-end by accessing (1) The return of the NextGen Savings Portfolio is based on the interest rate paid by Bank of America, N.A. (the "Bank") on the deposits of the NextGen Savings Portfolio, which will vary over time at the Bank's discretion without notice. The Program Manager and FAME do not currently charge any fees for the NextGen Savings Portfolio, but reserve the right to do so in the future. Any such fees would reduce the return shown for the NextGen Savings Portfolio. (2) Although the Principal Plus Portfolio is currently invested entirely in the New York Life guaranteed interest account (GIA), the Principal Plus Portfolio's investments have changed over time. At various times since its inception, the Principal Plus Portfolio has been invested in a guaranteed investment contract (GIC), the Cash Allocation Account, and the Bank Deposit Account. The historical performance of the Principal Plus Portfolio has been affected by each of these investments. Please see the Program Description and any supplements for more information. The Program Manager provides administrative services with respect to the Principal Plus Portfolio and performs credit analyses on the issuers of GICs and GIAs. New York Life has issued the GIA and guarantees principal allocated to the GIA, accumulated interest and its future interest rates. New York Life's commitment to the GIA is based solely on its ability to pay its obligation from its general account. The commitment to the GIA is not secured by any collateral. * Since inception returns for periods of less than one year are not annualized. Please note that there are limitations when viewing short-term performance results in Portfolios with less than one year of performance. This short-term performance may not be achieved over longer time periods. NextGen 529 is a Section 529 plan administered by FAME.
