1 DLay Quarterly report Q All information is as of unless otherwise indicated. Overview General fund information Portfolio managers: Kandarp R. Acharya, CFA, FRM; Christian L. Chan, CFA; and Petros Bocray, CFA, FRM Fund manager: Wells Fargo Funds Management, LLC Fund subadvisor: Wells Capital Management Inc. Category: Target date Three levers of risk management The funds will incorporate three levers as they seek to manage investment risk: tactical asset allocation, volatility management, and tail risk management. These strategies are summarized in the diagrams below: 1. Tactical asset allocation Uses timely shifts toward assets with higher expected returns Has a proven record of success in target risk funds Driven by the market outlook of the Wells Fargo Asset Management Allocation Committee 2. Volatility management Reduces exposure to risky assets in high-volatility markets Adds risky assets in low-volatility markets to increase return potential Seeks to provide a smoother ride over time for participants 3. Tail risk management Developed to manage severe market downturns Triggered when the portfolio falls to a specific value Uses institutional hedging techniques Fund strategy Each Dynamic Target Date Fund: Seeks total return over time consistent with its strategic target allocation Invests primarily in various affiliated mutual funds, unaffiliated mutual funds, and exchange-traded funds (ETFs) (the underlying funds) to diversify each fund s investments among the following asset classes: equity, fixed income, and alternative-style and inflation-hedging investments Equity underlying funds are diversified across a wide range of market segments, including large company, small company, international developed, and emerging markets Fixed-income underlying funds are diversified across a wide range of market sectors, including U.S. government obligations, corporate investment-grade and below-investment-grade bonds, foreign issues, and mortgage- and asset-backed securities Alternative-style underlying funds may include, but are not limited to, those investing in or having exposure to inflation-protected bonds, commodities, real estate, foreign currency, natural resources, precious metals, and other nontraditional investments or employing managed futures, merger arbitrage, global multiasset, long/short, market neutral, or other tactical investment strategies May invest in underlying funds whose investments may benefit from inflationary conditions Has underlying funds that consist primarily of actively managed mutual funds but also include passive index and exchange-traded funds Dynamic Target Date Funds glide path 1 CM (See pages 6 8 for important information.)
2 Asset allocation analysis Portfolio allocation discussion The underlying fund allocations followed the glide path allocations throughout the quarter. Using futures, the Dynamic Risk Hedging (DRH) overlay alters the effective allocations in the portfolios based on market signals. Although markets had brief periods of volatility in August, the Chicago Board Options Exchange Volatility Index (VIX), a measure of the option implied volatility on the S&P 500 Index, hit a low of 9.36 on July 21. During the period, which saw sharp changes in volatility, DRH contributed modestly to performance. The Tactical Asset Allocation (TAA) overlay started the quarter at 75% of the maximum Treasury short. The overlay alters the effective duration of the bond portfolios, reducing exposure to longer-duration bonds. Across the quarter, the TAA overlay had a slight positive effect on performance. The U.S. Federal Reserve (Fed) has increased the upper bound of the federal funds target interest rate twice in the past 12 months. In light of the Fed s goal to reduce the debt held on its balance sheet and to normalize the federal funds target rate, the team continues to view this trade as prudent. As of quarter-end, the team maintained its short Treasury position. allocations across the glide path Percentage Today Effective cash Effective alt/infl Effective fixed Effective equity Neutral equity glide path Wells Fargo Dynamic Target Date Fund Allocations are subject to change and may have changed since the date specified. Allocations shown are as of the end of the period. 2
3 Performance analysis Portfolio contributors and detractors The S&P 500 Index, a common measure of large-cap stock performance in the U.S., gained 4.5% during the quarter that ended September 30, The equity market, while intermittently exhibiting higher levels of volatility, ended the period at historically low volatility levels, as measured by the VIX. The Fed continued to signal that it would increase short-term interest rates again before the end of the year and indicated that in October, it would begin selling the bonds that it acquired through its quantitative easing programs since the 2008 financial crisis. During the third quarter, information technology (IT) was the highest-returning sector with a 7.6% gain, followed by energy and telecommunication services (each at approximately 6.8%), materials (6.0%), and financials (5.2%). Consumer staples was the only large-cap equity sector to record a negative return (-1.3%) among large-cap stocks. Large-cap stocks (as measured by the S&P 500 Index) continued to outperform mid-cap stocks (as measured by the S&P MidCap 400 Index, which gained about 3%) while trailing small-cap stocks (as measured by the S&P SmallCap 600 Index, which added almost 6%). The best-performing sectors in the mid-cap stock universe were energy (9.3%) and industrials (6.2%), while the telecommunication services (-9.2%), health care (-1.7%), and consumer staples (-0.2%) sectors were negative. Among small-cap stocks, every sector recorded positive returns. The five highest sector returns were in energy (11.6%), consumer staples (7.7%), industrials (a little more than 8%), IT (6.7%), and materials (6.2%). Globally, central banks retained accommodative monetary policies compared with the U.S. The Bank of England indicated that it could increase rates in the months ahead, while the Bank of Japan and the European Central Bank signaled continued low rates to support economic growth. Internationally, the MSCI EAFE Index (Net), a gauge of equity performance in developed international equity markets, gained 3.4%. Emerging markets equities, as measured by the MSCI Emerging Markets Index, added almost 8%. Stock valuations in overseas markets have increased but still trail U.S. equities on average, as measured by price/earnings, price/book, and other fundamental price measures. During the third quarter, the yield curve for U.S. government bonds was flat and price appreciation was positive but low. Bond prices and yields move in opposite directions. The Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index gained 0.9%. U.S. Treasury bonds, as measured by the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Treasury Index, earned 0.4%. High-yield bonds included in the Bloomberg Barclays U.S. Corporate High Yield Bond Index added almost 2% during the quarter. Strategic asset allocation was a strong contributor, especially among the more conservative funds, thanks to overweights to equities and underweights to fixed income and cash. Also helping was advantageous style composition in U.S. equities. Overweights to alternatives detracted. The performance of underlying funds was hurt by the underperformance of the Wells Fargo Emerging Markets Equity Income Fund relative to the MSCI Emerging Markets Index. Strategic allocation is the effect of asset allocation deviations from the benchmark caused by the investment weights of the underlying funds. Tactical allocation is the contribution from derivatives and rebalancing. Underlying fund selection aggregates the weighted return variances from individual style benchmarks.

Brokerage commissions, stamp duty fees, interest, taxes, acquired money market fund fees and expenses (if any), and extraordinary expenses are excluded from the cap. Without these reductions, the fund s returns would have been lower. After this time, the cap may be increased or the commitment to maintain the cap may be terminated only with the approval of the Board of Trustees. The expense ratio paid by an investor is the net expense ratio or the total annual fund operating expense after fee waivers, as stated in the prospectus. 6

8 Risks: The target date represents the year in which investors may likely begin withdrawing assets. The funds gradually seek to reduce market risk as the target date approaches and after it arrives by decreasing equity exposure and increasing fixed-income exposure. The principal value is not guaranteed at any time, including at the target date. The funds invest in alternative investments, such as short sales, which are speculative and entail a high degree of risk. The funds invest using alternative investment strategies such as equity hedged, event driven, global macro, and relative value, which are speculative and entail a high degree of risk. Alternative investments, such as commodities and merger arbitrage strategies, are speculative and entail a high degree of risk. Stock values fluctuate in response to the activities of individual companies and general market and economic conditions. Bond values fluctuate in response to the financial condition of individual issuers, general market and economic conditions, and changes in interest rates. Changes in market conditions and government policies may lead to periods of heightened volatility in the bond market and reduced liquidity for certain bonds held by the fund. In general, when interest rates rise, bond values fall and investors may lose principal value. Interest-rate changes and their impact on the fund and its share price can be sudden and unpredictable. High-yield securities have a greater risk of default and tend to be more volatile than higher-rated debt securities. The use of derivatives may reduce returns and/or increase volatility. Securities issued by U.S. government agencies or government-sponsored entities may not be guaranteed by the U.S. Treasury. Certain investment strategies tend to increase the total risk of an investment (relative to the broader market). These funds are exposed to foreign investment risk, mortgage- and asset-backed securities risk, new fund risk, regulatory risk, and smaller-company investment risk. Consult the funds prospectus for additional information on these and other risks. The views expressed in this document are as of and are those of the portfolio manager(s).
