Understanding your University of North Texas retirement plan fees Important update on your retirement plan's recordkeeping and investment management fees When making decisions about your University of North Texas retirement program account, it's important to know there are fees associated with many of the plan's services and investments. Some fees may be paid by your employer; others may be paid by you, based on the services and investments you choose. A recent change impacts how your plan administration costs will be assessed.

General administrative services Your plan charges an annual Administrative Fee to cover services such as recordkeeping, legal, accounting, investment advisory and other plan and participant services.* University of North Texas will make the following change. Please review this information on how your account may be affected. No action is required. Your plan will assess an annual fee of 0.12% ($1.20 per $1,000 invested), which will be divided into quarterly payments. The first fee will be deducted proportionally from each investment in your account on the last business day of each quarter and identified as "TIAA Plan Servicing Fee" on your quarterly statements. Investment-specific services Each of the plan's investment options has a fee for investment management and associated services. Plan participants generally pay for these costs through what is called an expense ratio. Expense ratios are displayed as a percentage of assets. For example, an expense ratio of 0.50% means a plan participant would pay $5 annually for every $1,000 in assets. Taking the expense ratio into consideration helps you to compare investment fees so you can make informed investment decisions. You can find the expense ratios, as well as investment-specific purchase, withdrawal and redemption fees and expenses at unt or in the prospectus at performance.

Fees are important and help ensure that regardless of the investments selected, all plan participants share in the cost of retirement plan administration. As you plan your financial goals, keep in mind that fees are just one factor in the decision-making process. If you have questions about any of the fees associated with your retirement plan, you can visit unt or call TIAA at 800-842-2252, weekdays, 7 a.m. to 9 p.m. (CT) and Saturday 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. (CT).

* Plan servicing fees can be deducted from Retirement Choice and Retirement Choice Plus contracts. However, plan servicing fees cannot be deducted from Retirement Annuity, Group Retirement Annuity, Supplemental Retirement Annuity and Group Supplemental Retirement Annuity contracts.
