To decide if a variable annuity is right for you, consider that its value will fluctuate; it is subject to investment risk and possible loss of principal; and there are costs associated such as mortality and expenses, administrative and advisory fees.

4 Asset allocation funds Lincoln Investor Advantage lineup includes more than 20 asset allocation funds from leading investment managers. Asset allocation funds give you the ability to invest across several different asset classes all in one fund helping to spread out the risk associated with investing in an individual asset class such as stocks. This one-step approach to portfolio diversification offers broad exposure across traditional asset classes such as equities, bonds, cash and alternative asset classes, such as commodities, real estate and currencies. Neither asset allocation nor diversification can ensure a profit or protect against loss. Traditional Asset Allocation These funds tend to emphasize traditional asset classes like stocks, bonds and cash. While some of the funds will vary the asset allocation over time, they generally take a strategic approach to how the funds' assets are allocated, creating an asset mix for a long-term investment horizon.

Tax-efficient investing is one component of helping to protect your wealth Ask your advisor how you can prepare for rising healthcare expenses, market risk, longevity and inflation. Help protect your growing assets, your retirement income, and your legacy. InvestorAdvantage.com Consider these risks and restrictions before investing in any of these options: A Fund of funds invests primarily in other funds rather than individual securities. Funds of this nature may be more expensive than other investment options. Investing internationally involves risks not associated with investing solely in the United States, such as currency fluctuation, political risk, differences in accounting, and the limited availability of information. Funds that invest in small- and/or mid-size company stocks typically involve greater risk, particularly in the short term, than those investing in larger, more established companies. An investment in a money market fund is not insured or guaranteed by the FDIC or any other government agency. Although the Fund seeks to preserve the value of your investment at $1.00 per share it is possible to lose money by investing in the Fund. Funds that concentrate investments in one region or industry may carry greater risk than more broadly diversified funds. The return of principal in bond portfolios is not guaranteed. Bond portfolios have the same interest rate, inflation, credit, prepayment and market risks that are associated with the underlying bonds owned by the fund (or account). Neither asset allocation nor diversification can ensure a profit, nor protect against loss in a declining market. High yield portfolios may invest in high-yield or lower-rated fixed income securities (junk bonds), which may experience higher volatility and increased risk of nonpayment or default. Alternative funds expect to invest in (or may invest in some) positions that emphasize alternative investment strategies and/or non-traditional asset classes and, as a result, are subject to the risk factors of those asset classes and/or investment strategies. Some of those risks may include general economic risk, geopolitical risk, commodity-price volatility, counterparty and settlement risk, currency risk, derivatives risk, emerging markets risk, foreign securities risk, high yield bond exposure, index investing risk, exchange traded notes risk, industry concentration risk, leveraging risk, real estate investment risk, master limited partnership risk, master limited partnership tax risk, energy infrastructure companies risk, sector risk, short sales risk, direct investments risk, hard assets sectors risk, active trading and overlay risks, event driven investing risk, global macro strategies risk, temporary defensive positions and large cash positions. REITs involve risks such as refinancing, economic conditions in the real estate industry, changes in property values, dependency on real estate management, and other risks associated with a portfolio that concentrates its investments in one sector or geographic region. Investing in emerging markets can be riskier than investing in well-established foreign markets. International investing involves special risks not found in domestic investing, including increased political, social, and economic instability. Floating rate funds should not be considered alternatives to CDs or money market funds, and should not be considered as cash alternatives. The value of an ETF may be more volatile than the underlying portfolio of securities the ETF is designed to track. The costs of owning the ETF may exceed the cost of investing directly in the underlying securities. Exchange-traded funds (ETFs) in this lineup are available through collective trusts or mutual funds. Investors cannot invest directly in an ETF. Investments in the Funds are not and will not be deposits with or liabilities of Macquarie Bank Limited ABN and its holding companies, including their subsidiaries or related companies, and are subject to investment risk, including possible delays in prepayment and loss of income and capital invested. No Macquarie Group company guarantees or will guarantee the performance of the Series or Funds, the repayment of capital from the Series or Funds, or any particular rate of return. An index is unmanaged, and one cannot invest directly in an index.
