**1/4 of asset management fee is assessed at the end of each calendar quarter on a pro-rated basis to participant account values. The amount is calculated on the average daily balance over the quarter. Fees may be higher if you are working through a third-party investment advisor. Please contact your investment advisor for details.

How Automatic Price Discounts Work
ShareBuilder 401k wants to ensure your plan always delivers great value not only in features and services, but also in price. As your company's total plan assets exceed a pricing tier shown above for a calendar quarter (based on an average of the daily balance), we automatically lower your administration and asset management fee for the next quarter and on-going. The reverse is also true. If for some reason employees, markets, or other events drop your average asset balance for your company plan below your current level, your administration and asset fee are adjusted up for the next quarter. All pricing is on a go-forward basis and is not retroactive.
