To review or up your mailing preferences, simply log on to your account at vanguard.com, go to My Profile, and select Mailing Preferences. Transaction requests (for example, a contribution, exchange or redemption) must be in good order. "Good order" means that Vanguard has determined that (1) your transaction request includes complete information and (2) appropriate assets are already in your account or new assets have been received. Vanguard, as your plan s record keeper, will determine the necessary processing time for your transaction request before submission to the fund(s).
Your transaction will then be based on the next determined net asset value (NAV) of the investment s shares. If your transaction request is received by Vanguard in good order on a business day before the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) (generally 4 p.m., Eastern time), you will receive that day s NAV and trade. If your transaction request is received in good order while the NYSE is closed, you will receive the next business day s NAV and trade. If your transaction involves one or more investments with an early cutoff time for processing or another trading restriction, your entire transaction will be subject to that cutoff time when the trade for your transaction is determined. If an early cutoff time applies to an investment available in your plan, please review the next section for additional information. You may not cancel any transaction request once processing has begun. Please be careful when placing a transaction request. Proxy voting The plan administrator or other named fiduciary for the plan exercises voting, tender and similar rights with respect to the mutual funds in the plan. B. Limitations on your ability to direct investments Frequent trading policy Because excessive transactions can disrupt the management of an investment and increase its transaction costs, limits are placed on exchanges and other transactions. If you move money out of an investment (other than money market funds, short term bond funds, stable value investments,and employer securities), you cannot move money back into the same investment for 60 days. This policy applies regardless of the dollar amount. Please note that the 60 day clock restarts after every exchange out of the investment. The frequent trading policy does not apply to the following: exchange requests submitted by mail to Vanguard (exchange requests submitted by fax, if otherwise permitted, are not mail requests and are subject to the policy); exchanges of shares purchased with participant payroll or employer contributions or loan payments; exchanges of shares purchased with reinvested dividend or capital gains distributions; distributions, loans, and in service withdrawals from a plan; redemptions of shares as part of a plan termination or at the direction of the plan; redemptions of shares to pay fund or account fees; share or asset transfers or rollovers; re registrations of shares within the same investment; conversions of shares from one share class to another in the same investment; and automated transactions executed during the first six months of enrollment in the Vanguard Managed Account Program. Note that your plan and the issuers of your plan s investments reserve the right to revise or terminate the exchange privilege (your ability to move money between investments), limit the amount of any exchange, or reject any exchange at any time, without notice. C. Individual transaction expenses Your account will be subject to additional fees if you select one of the following plan services. Please also review your account statement for a detailed disclosure of the dollar amount actually charged to your account for these services and a description of the services to which these fees relate. Qualified domestic relations order (QDRO) fee A QDRO is a legal document ordering the division of a retirement plan account between parties in a divorce. If you or your spouse submits a QDRO to be processed for your account, the following fees will be assessed: QDRO processing fee: $50.
Investment fees charged to your account Investments in your plan may carry additional fees, including administrative charges, commissions, sales loads, sales charges, deferred sales charges, redemption fees, surrender charges, exchange fees, account fees, and purchase fees. Please review the complete investment fee and performance chart contained in this notice to determine whether these fees may be charged for an investment option, and review your account statement for a detailed disclosure of the dollar amount actually charged to your account each quarter that is attributable to these fees.
Part II. Investment performance and fee information The table below focuses on the performance of investment options that do not have a fixed or stated rate of return. This table shows how these options have performed over time and allows you to compare them with an appropriate benchmark for the same time periods. Past performance does not guarantee how the investment option will perform in the future. Your investment in these options could lose money. Information about an option s principal risks is available on your plan's website. This table also shows fee and expense information for the investment options listed below, including the total annual operating expenses of each investment option listed below. Total annual operating expenses are expenses that reduce the rate of return of the investment option. This table also shows shareholder type fees. These fees are in addition to total annual operating expenses. The table also shows any restrictions or limitations that may apply to purchases, transfers, or withdrawals of the investment. Please note, each benchmark provided in the chart is a broad based securities market index, as required by Department of Labor regulation. When reviewing performance of a blended fund (a fund that invests in a mix of stocks, bonds and/or money market instruments, like a Target Date Fund or balanced fund), it may also be useful to compare fund returns to composite benchmarks comprised of multiple broad based indices based on the fund's composition, goals and objectives. Composite benchmarks are available in the fund prospectuses and at vanguard.com. If you have questions or need help finding additional information, contact Vanguard Participant Services at 800 523 1188. Investment performance and expenses The table below provides important information about your investment options (as of December 31, 2014) The performance data shown represents past performance, which is not a guarantee of future results. Investment returns and principal value will fluctuate, so investors shares, when sold, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data cited.

Fee/expense definitions Total annual operating expense (gross expense ratio) The investment fund s annual operating expenses, often expressed as a percentage of average net assets. The total annual operating expense does not reflect any fee waivers or reimbursements that may be in effect. Sales charge A charge deducted from the amount invested when shares of a fund are initially purchased. The amount is generally relative to the amount of the investment, so that larger investments incur smaller rates of charge. Redemption fee The redemption fee is an amount charged when shareholders redeem shares of a fund within a specified number of days following the purchase of those shares. The redemption fee is intended to allow funds to recoup some of the costs incurred as a result of short term trading strategies, such as market timing. Deferred sales charge This charge is imposed when investors redeem shares. The percentage charged generally declines the longer shares are held. The performance of an index is not an exact representation of any particular investment, as you cannot invest directly in an index.

As part of an ongoing commitment to ensure that Duke Retirement Plan participants have access to the highest quality investment options, Duke s Investment Advisory Committee regularly reviews and evaluates the portfolio of investments in terms of management team, diversification, investment style, expenses, and investment return. As a result of a recent review, Duke s Investment Advisory Committee has replaced the PIMCO Total Return Bond Fund (PTTRX) with the Metropolitan West Total Return Fund (MWTSX). This decision was made due to the change in leadership of PIMCO s portfolio manager. Replacing the PIMCO Total Return Fund was done to eliminate any direct exposure you may have to potential future issues that could negatively impact this fund. The information below provides more detail on this change. On Tuesday, March 3, 2015, at 4 p.m., Eastern time, the Metropolitan West Total Return Bond Fund P Class replaced the PIMCO Total Return Fund Institutional Class as an investment option in the Duke University Faculty and Staff Retirement Plan and the Duke University 457(b) Deferred Compensation Plan. Your new fund Metropolitan West Total Return Bond Fund P Class seeks to maximize long-term total return. The fund intends to invest at least 80% of its net assets in investment-grade fixed income securities or unrated securities that are determined by the fund s adviser to be of similar quality. Under normal conditions, the portfolio duration is two to eight years and the dollar-weighted average maturity ranges from 2 to 15 years. The fund invests in the U.S. and abroad, including emerging markets, and may purchase securities of varying maturities issued by domestic and foreign corporations and governments. The fund s adviser will focus the fund s portfolio holdings in areas of the bond market that the adviser believes to be relatively undervalued.
