Actions The target date is the approximate date when investors plan to retire and may begin withdrawing their money. The asset allocation of the target-date funds will become more conservative as the target date approaches and for ten years after the target date by lessening the equity exposure and increasing the exposure in fixed income investments. The principal value of an investment in a target-date fund is not guaranteed at any time, including the target date. There is no guarantee that the fund will provide adequate retirement income. A target-date fund should not be selected solely based on age or retirement date. Before investing, participants should carefully consider the fund's investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses, as well as their age, anticipated retirement date, risk tolerance, other investments owned, and planned withdrawals. The stated asset allocation may be subject to change. It is possible to lose money in a target-date fund, including losses near and following retirement. Investments in the Funds are not deposits or obligations of any bank and are not insured or guaranteed by any governmental agency or instrumentality.

Guarantees are based on the claims-paying ability of the insurance company and are subject to certain limitations, terms and conditions. To maintain the IncomeFlex target benefit, you must invest in one or more Prudential IncomeFlex Target Funds. Like all variable investments, these funds may lose value. Withdrawals in excess of the guaranteed lifetime income amount will reduce future guaranteed withdrawals proportionately and can even stop them.
Keep in mind that application of asset allocation and diversification concepts does not assure a profit or protect against loss in a declining market.

Because you already enjoy this tax deferral, your decision to invest in an Individual Retirement Account or other variable annuity should be based on the annuity's investment and insurance features, such as the ability to annuitize, and the death benefit.
Annuities are longer term investments intended for retirement savings. They contain fee, exclusions, limitations, reductions of benefits, and terms for keeping them in force.
The sale or liquidation of any stock, bond, IRA, certificate of deposit, mutual fund, annuity, or other asset to fund the purchase of this product may have tax consequences, early withdrawal penalties, or other costs or penalties as a result of the sale or liquidation. You or your agent may wish to solicit independent legal or financial advice before selling or liquidating any assets, and prior to the purchase of any life or annuity products being solicited, offered for sale, or sold.
Amounts withdrawn before age 59½ may be subject to a 10% federal income tax penalty, applicable taxes, and plan restrictions. Withdrawals are generally taxed at ordinary income tax rates.
The PruSecure Account is a group annuity product issued by The Prudential Insurance Company of America (PICA), Newark, NJ 07102. Amounts contributed to the contract are deposited in PICA's general account. Payment obligations and the fulfillment of any guarantees specified in the group annuity contract are insurance claims supported by the full faith and credit of PICA. PICA periodically resets the interest rate credited on contract balances, subject to a minimum rate specified in the group annuity contract. Past interest rates are not indicative of future rates. This product is neither a mutual fund nor a bank product.
The obligations of PICA are not insured by the FDIC or any other federal governmental agency. Prudential Retirement is compensated in connection with this product when general account investment returns exceed the interest credited on contract balances. Other than such compensation, there are no additional charges imposed that reduce the interest rate credited.
