ENROLLMENT OVERVIEW Estimate your need With the average life expectancy increasing, uncertainty around Social Security and inflation continuing to erode the purchasing power of your money, participating in your retirement plan is more important now than ever. Use this worksheet to help you determine how much money you may need to reach your retirement goals. Retirement needs worksheet Note: Example assumes 25 years until retirement Example Your numbers 1 Annual income $40,000 2 Annual income needed in retirement in today s dollars $30,000 (Retirement professionals estimate that you will need 75 to 80 percent of your current annual income each year in retirement) 3 Approximate amount of Social Security expected annually $10,000 (Multiply Line 1 by.25 for a conservative estimate of your Social Security benefit. There is an annual cap on benefits. Visit www.ssa.gov for more information.) 4 Shortfall that will need to be made up from other sources of retirement income $20,000 (Subtract Line 3 from Line 2) 5 Adjust shortfall for inflation $32,800 (Multiply Line 4 by the appropriate inflation factor from the chart below. In the example, we assume 25 years remaining until retirement. Therefore, we multiplied $20,000 by 1.64.) 6 Investments already accumulated adjusted for future growth $325,800 (For this example, we assume $60,000 in already accumulated assets. Because we are still assuming 25 years until retirement, we multiply $60,000 by an investment factor of 5.43. Check the table below for the appropriate investment factor for your situation.) 7 Amount needed at retirement to get the amount entered in Line 5 $410,000 (Multiply Line 5 by 12.5 a payout factor which assumes 2% inflation, 7% return and that 20 years of retirement income will be needed) 8 Determine how much needs to be allocated toward retirement income (Subtract Line 6 from Line 7) $84,200 9 Amount needed in contributions each year to achieve a goal of Line 8 (Divide Line 8 by the appropriate present value factor from the chart below. In the example, we did $84,200 divided by 63.25.) $1,331.23 10 Monthly contribution amount (Divide Line 9 by 12) 11 The percentage to be deducted monthly from paycheck (Line 10 divided by monthly income. In the example: $110.94 divided by $3,333.) $110.94 monthly investment 3.3% monthly investment Retirement needs factors Years until retirement 5 10 15 20 25 30 35 40 Inflation Factor (2 percent inflation) 1.10 1.22 1.35 1.49 1.64 1.81 2.00 2.21 Investment Factor (7 percent return) 1.40 1.97 2.76 3.87 5.43 7.61 10.68 14.97 Present Value Factor (7 percent return) 5.75 13.82 25.13 41.00 63.25 94.46 138.24 199.64 Note: McCready and Keene provides administrative and recordkeeping services and is not a broker/dealer or an investment advisor.

These hypothetical investment returns are for educational purposes only and are not indicative of any particular investment or performance. Hypothetical returns assume reinvestment of earnings. Actual returns or principal value will vary. Balances shown are before reduction for taxes. 3
Contribute to your retirement plan For many people it is a good idea to participate in your retirement plan as soon as possible. If you start contributing right away, your account may have more time to grow or weather ups and downs in the stock market. Though starting early is important; your plan offers assistance if you are contributing later in life. Check with your plan administrator to learn how catch up contributions can assist with your preparation. Your retirement plan contributions The money you contribute to your retirement account is automatically deducted from your paycheck before taxes are taken out. It goes directly into your retirement account, so your paycheck is actually less than it would have been before the deduction when taxes are taken out. This means you are paying less in current income taxes for the year. This can help reduce the impact of contributing to your retirement plan on your take-home pay. Put tax deferral to work for you Tax deferral simply means the contributions to your retirement plan are not currently taxed. You are putting off paying taxes on that money until you withdraw it from your retirement account. How can putting off paying taxes be a benefit? Not only are your contributions invested, but the deferred taxes allow your money to stay invested. The benefits of compounding Compounding occurs when your principal investment generates a gain that is reinvested and experiences an additional earning. When the new balance (the original investment plus the gain) generates further earnings, the initial gain increases the total return of your initial principal. When the following gains are reinvested, future positive earnings are further compounded. Compounding example Michael Age 25 $100 Monthly contribution over 40 years Total contribution $48k = $199,149 at retirement Note: This hypothetical investment return and fictitious name is designed to demonstrate the impact of compounding returns and is not indicative of any particular investment or performance. Hypothetical returns assume reinvestment of earnings and a 6 percent average return on investment. Actual returns or principal value will vary. Balance shown is before reduction of taxes. An investor should consider his or her current and anticipated investment horizon and income tax bracket when making an investment decision, as the example may not reflect those factors. Any investment involves risk and there is no assurance that the investment objective of any investment option will be achieved. Before investing, understand that mutual funds are subject to market risk, including possible loss of principal. 4
ENROLLMENT OVERVIEW Review your plan regularly Another step in investing in your retirement plan is to review your account regularly. Like other important things in life, your retirement account requires periodic monitoring and review. Be sure to carefully read your quarterly statements, call 1-800-442-4015 with any questions you may have and review all materials given to you from Taylor Guitars about retirement preparation or the plan. As your life and priorities change, the amount you can contribute to your retirement account or your investment allocation strategy may also change. Any of these events might signal a need to re-evaluate your retirement plan choices. Marriage Birth or adoption of a child Change of employment for you or your spouse Divorce Financial emergency Death of a spouse Approaching retirement In addition to reviewing your account when major life events happen, it is also a good idea to do a review annually (perhaps with a financial professional) to determine whether or not you are still on track to reach your goals. This is a good habit because there will be tweaks you may want to make along the way such as rebalancing your investment mix or increasing your contribution level.

Choose your investments An important, and sometimes confusing, step in retirement preparation is choosing which options to invest in. Because each investor has different goals and different circumstances, there is no set strategy that works for everyone. The mix of investments that is appropriate for you depends on your retirement goals, your risk tolerance and how long you have until retirement. Note: Each group of investments carry their own unique risks. Before investing, please read each fund prospectus for a detailed explanation of the risks, fees, and costs associated with each underlying investment option. Although you might reduce volatility and risk with diversification, you can t eliminate investment risk all together. The use of asset allocation and diversification does not ensure a profit or protect against loss. Bond funds have the same interest rate, inflation and credit risks that are associated with the underlying bonds owned by the fund. Money Market funds are not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other federal government agency. Although they seek to preserve the value of your investment at $1.00 per share, it s possible to lose money by investing in money market funds. Asset classes There are different types of investments, known as asset classes, in which you may choose to invest your retirement plan contributions. The three main asset classes are: Stocks Stocks have historically had the greatest risk and highest returns among the three major asset categories. Bonds Bonds are generally less volatile than stocks but offer more modest returns. Cash equivalents Cash equivalents such as certificates of deposit, treasury bills and money market funds are generally the most conservative investments, but offer the lowest return of the three major asset categories. Another type of investment, called an Asset Allocation fund, provides investors with a portfolio of a fixed or variable mix of the three main asset classes. These funds are a good option for investors that would prefer not to worry about making adjustments to their portfolio as the market fluctuates. Understanding risk and return Risk is the potential for an investment to lose value. Return is the change in value on an investment. Understanding the relationship between risk and return is very important as you develop your investment strategy. The amount of investment risk you are willing to take, also known as your risk tolerance, is a personal decision, which can be shaped by the amount of time you have until retirement or your time horizon. Risk tolerance Some people are comfortable taking on the risk of frequent ups and downs of the market in return for potentially greater longterm returns. Others prefer the slow, steady return of lower risk investments. Understanding your personal attitude toward risk will help you find the right mix of investments for your portfolio. Time horizon The longer you have until retirement, the more risk you can potentially afford to take. Mixing it up with diversification Because different asset classes have varying levels of risk and return, it is important to make sure you have a good mix of investments in your portfolio. This strategy, called diversification, aims to balance risk and reward by allocating assets according to your goals, risk tolerance and investment horizon. 6
ENROLLMENT OVERVIEW Plan highlights Eligibility requirements Employee contributions Participation in the plan is open to employees who meet the following requirements: Attainment of age 18 Completion of 90 days of service Employer contributions Participation in the plan is open to employees who meet the following requirements: Attainment of age 18 Completion of 1 year of service Completion of 1,000 hours of service Plan entry dates Employee and employer contributions Participants may participate in the plan effective on the first day of the month, following completion of the plan eligibility requirements. Excluded employees Employee and employer contributions The plan does not allow for participation by employees who are: Covered by a collective bargaining agreement Non-resident aliens with no U.S. earned income Contributions Employee contributions Your plan includes an Automatic Enrollment feature which means you will be enrolled in the Taylor Guitars 401(k) Plan unless you take action. You will automatically be enrolled pre-tax at 5 percent in the default investment option (called a Qualified Default Investment Alternative ). The default investment for the plan is the age appropriate T5 Moderate Risk Custom Portfolio. The automatic deferral percentage shall increase by 1 percent of compensation per year up to a maximum of 10 percent of compensation. To opt out of Automatic Enrollment you must complete the enrollment process and elect a different deferral percentage or elect not to make contributions. Through payroll deduction, you can make pre-tax contributions from 1 95 percent of your wages, salary, earnings (and bonus, if applicable). You can designate your contribution as a pre-tax deferral, a Roth deferral or a combination of both. Roth deferrals are after-tax contributions, but earnings on these contributions accumulate tax-free in your account and withdrawals at retirement may be exempt from federal income tax. The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) dollar limit applies cumulatively to pre-tax and Roth after-tax contributions. Can I make catch-up contributions to the plan? If you are age 50 or older (or will turn age 50 during the calendar year) you may be eligible to make catch-up contributions. Employees will automatically be enrolled in the plan at 5% in the default investment option upon meeting the eligibility requirements. Note: An Internal Revenue Service (IRS) dollar limit cap applies. For the current years dollar limit please visit www.irs.gov. Additional plan-specific provisions or limitations may apply. Before you can make catch-up contributions, you must first reach the elective deferral dollar limit (the Internal Revenue Code (Code) section 402(g) limit), the annual additions limit (the Code section 415 limit), the plan s deferral limit, or the Actual Deferral Percentage (ADP) limit. For the current years maximum catch-up contribution limit please visit www.irs.gov. You can opt out of being automatically enrolled in the plan by completing the enrollment process and electing not to make contributions or completing the enrollment process and electing to make contributions at a different limit or selecting different investments to invest in. 7
When can I change or stop my contributions to the plan? You can change your contributions or stop your contributions monthly. Employer matching contributions The company matches 100 percent of the first 5 percent of pay you contribute to the plan. Employer profit sharing contributions Your plan allows for an employer profit sharing contribution as defined by the plan. Taylor Guitars matches 100% of the first 5% of pay you contribute to the plan. Vesting Employee contributions You are always 100 percent vested in your deferral contributions to the plan, plus any earnings they generate.

You are always 100 percent vested in any rollovers or transfers to the plan, plus any earnings they generate. 8 Note: If you stop your contributions, you can only start contributing again in accordance with plan provisions. Withdrawals/Distributions Generally, money may be withdrawn from your account for: Attainment of age 59½ Attainment of plan s normal retirement age prior to separation from service Death Disability Financial hardship.

Methodology The My OneCheck Online RIS tool generates retirement wealth and retirement income projections based on current account balances, current salary, retirement age, life expectancy, current savings rates and rate of return assumptions entered by the participant. The risk questionnaire provides a series of questions that are used to determine the user s tolerance for risk.

Consult with your financial professional to discuss how other investment options can be combined with your MasteryPOINT My OneCheck Online asset level suggestions to best meet your overall retirement or other financial goals. Note: MasteryPOINT s My OneCheck Online Retirement Income Strategy (RIS) tool is a sophisticated retirement planning tool designed to provide you with valuable help in reaching your retirement goals. However, forecasts and projections are derived from mathematical modeling techniques of the economic and financial markets that may or may not reflect actual conditions and events. The asset projections and suggestions of asset allocation strategies furnished through the My OneCheck Online RIS tool are based on information and assumptions you provide about your current financial, personal, family status, and expected returns as well the historical performance of various asset categories available within your plan. While My OneCheck Online can provide you with insights on which investment asset categories offered by your Plan appear to best fit your retirement needs, you are solely responsible for using your own best judgment to choose the investments that are most suitable for you. 15
Check out the My OneCheck Online tool by logging into your retirement account at www. taylorguitars401k.com Limitations and key assumptions There can be no assurance that any of the suggestions for modification of participant savings level, participant retirement age, participant retirement goal, or participant risk level will generate any specific level of retirement date wealth or income in retirement. These illustrations are hypothetical and are based on the information and variables you provide. Investing involves risk including the potential for loss of principal. Past performance is not a guarantee of future results. Your actual investment experience will vary. Any investment involves risk and there is no assurance that the investment objective of any investment option will be achieved. Before investing, understand that your investments are subject to market risk, including possible loss of principal. The use of diversification and asset allocation as part of an overall investment strategy does not assure a profit, or protect against loss in a declining market. Monthly 401(k) retirement plan contributions are made at the end of each month prior at the specified rate you selected. Your 401(k) retirement plan assets grow at the pre and post-retirement rates of return you selected. Your salary growth before retirement is calculated at an annual rate of 3%. Contributions into the Plan before retirement will also grow at the same rate. Income growth after retirement is set to the inflation rate. After retirement, your growth-adjusted salary is withdrawn from your 401(k) retirement plan balance each month. This amount is indicated as withdrawn before investment growth is applied for the month. Monthly compounding is applied to rates of return and inflation. These values are applied at the rate you select, divided by 12 for growth of 401(k) retirement plan balances. Social Security is calculated based on your current salary. An earnings base for up to 35 working years prior date is calculated. Your current Social Security benefits are calculated from your assumed earnings base and that of your spouse (whether non-working spouse or working spouse if his/her age and salary are specified). A 2.5% annual growth factor is applied to your Social Security benefits after retirement. The calculated benefit is added to your 401(k) retirement plan balance at the end of each month 8 during retirement. Benefits are reduced for early retirement and increased for late retirement according to current Social Security regulations. If you are married and do not explicitly exclude the spouse Social Security benefit, a spousal benefit equal to one half of your benefit will be computed and added to your balance. If you retire before your normal retirement age (65, 66, or 67 depending on your age), your Social Security benefit will be reduced by the standard reduction formula. If you retire before age 62, your benefit may be reduced even further. The program does not consider your salary and Social Security contribution history. As a result, your computed benefit when you retire early may be less than your actual benefit. Contact the Social Security Administration for a more accurate benefit estimate. Your federal tax rate is calculated based upon your current salary (including spouse salary, if entered) and assumes only the standard deduction. State taxes are not considered in the analysis. 16
