2 A whole new way to help you and your advisor close the gap between where you are today and the income you really want each year in retirement. Built on BlackRock trusted to manage more money than any other investment firm in the world. * 2 * Source: BlackRock. Based on $4.5 trillion in AUM as of 9/30/15.

3 SEE where you stand today. iretire translates your current retirement savings into the number that really matters: the income you could have each year in retirement. EXPLORE how you can make it better. iretire helps you and your advisor close the gap by showing you the impact of saving more, working longer, and investing differently. BUILD a portfolio to help put your iretire plan into action. iretire can help you and your advisor build a portfolio based upon your age, objectives and inputs. 3

4 Will I have enough for retirement? It s a brutally simple question... and one more and more of us are struggling to answer today. Because preparing for retirement between ages 50 and 70 isn t as simple as it used to be. Americans today have more years to do the things we love:...we re living 20% longer than previous generations. 1 But we also have more years of retirement to pay for:...nearly 70% of us may outlive our money in retirement. 2 That s why it s time to look at your retirement in a whole new way. 4 1 Source: National Center for Health Statistics 2 US Federal Reserve: 2013 Report on the Economic Well Being of US Households

6 You may have a gap between your savings today and the income you really want each year in retirement. When it comes to knowing if you have enough, the number that really matters may not be the traditional nest egg. It s the income you ll have each year in retirement. And that nest egg you ve been building up for decades may not provide the income you wanted...or planned for. 6

7 Here s the surprising reality. Imagine you had a $500,000 nest egg at age 60. You could find yourself living on an estimated income of just $ 500K In Total Savings $ 27K Estimated Per Year in Retirement over $27,000 a year in retirement. * That difference between the income your savings might provide and what you really want to have in retirement is your income gap. Where you stand today Your goal Estimated Annual Retirement Income Income Gap But here s the good news: now there s something you can do to start to close that gap. * The estimated annual retirement income is based on the CoRI Retirement Index 2019 level as of 6/9/15. CoRI Retirement Index levels are updated daily and are subject to change over time. Retirement is assumed to begin at age 65. CoRI Retirement Indexes ( CoRI Indexes ) are a series of real-time, age-based indexes designed to help Americans measure retirement readiness and plan for future income goals. Each CoRI Index provides a daily level that can be used to estimate, as early as 10 years before retirement, how much annual lifetime retirement income your current retirement savings could generate. For more information, go to 7

8 Start closing your gap today in three simple steps. iretire is a whole new way to help people aged invest for retirement. It s easy to use...just three simple steps. It s easy to understand...your iretire plan clearly shows you and your advisor where you are and what you can do to make it better. It s easy to act on...your iretire plan takes you and your advisor from problem to plan to a portfolio in minutes, not hours. S T E P O N E See where you stand today. Your iretire plan translates your current savings into the number that really matters: the income you could have each year in retirement. Your advisor enters: Your age Your current retirement savings And the income goal for retirement you ve discussed Using BlackRock s analytical technology and expertise, your advisor can show you if you have a retirement income gap. 8

9 For illustrative purposes only. 9
