CITs

^*This CIT has not been funded yet.

Harbor Trust Company, Inc. (“Harbor Trust Company”) has established the Harbor Collective Investment Trust (the “Harbor CIT”) pursuant to a Declaration of Trust and the Harbor Capital Appreciation CIT; Harbor Core Bond CIT; Harbor Core Plus CIT; and Harbor International Compounders CIT (the “CITs”), collective investment funds of the Harbor CIT, pursuant to a Fund Declaration. Harbor Trust Company serves as trustee and is responsible for maintaining and managing the CITs. Harbor Capital Advisors, Inc. (“Harbor Capital”), an affiliate of Harbor Trust Company, serves as investment adviser. Jennison Associates LLC serves as subadvisor with respect to the Harbor Capital Appreciation CIT; Income Research + Management serves as subadvisor with respect to the Harbor Core Bond CIT and Harbor Core Plus CIT; and C WorldWide Asset Management Fondsmaeglerselskab A/S serves as subadvisor with respect to the Harbor International Compounders CIT, subject to Harbor Trust Company’s oversight. 

The CITs are not mutual funds. Participation in the CITs is limited to Eligible Trusts that are accepted by Harbor Trust Company, as the trustee, as Participating Trusts. These eligibility requirements, along with other defined terms, are more fully described in the Declaration of Trust.

Investments in the CIT are NOT bank deposits, are NOT guaranteed by Harbor Trust Company or any of its agents, are NOT insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (“FDIC”) or any other agency of the U.S. government, and are subject to investment risks, including loss of principal. The Harbor CIT is not registered under the Investment Company Act and the Units are not registered under the Securities Act in each case in reliance on exemptions under these Acts for interests in a collective trust fund maintained by a bank for certain types of employee benefit trusts. Accordingly, information that would otherwise be needed if registration were required is not necessary.

Not FDIC Insured. No Bank Guarantee. May Lose Value.

Fixed income investments are affected by interest rate changes and the creditworthiness of the issues held by the CIT. As interest rates rise, the values of fixed income securities held by the CIT are likely to decrease and reduce the value of the CIT's portfolio.

There is no guarantee that the investment objective of the CIT will be achieved. Stock markets are volatile and equity values can decline significantly in response to adverse issuer, political, regulatory, market and economic conditions.

International investing involves risks, including risks related to foreign currency, limited liquidity, less government regulation and the possibility of substantial volatility due to adverse political, economic or other developments. These risks often are heightened for investments in emerging/developing markets or in concentrations of single countries.

A Collective Investment Trust (“CIT”) is a pooled investment vehicle designed for exclusive use in certain qualified retirement plans, such as defined contribution, defined benefit, profit‑sharing, 401(a) and 457(b) plans. CIT expenses may be lower due to reduced compliance, operational, and marketing costs. Plan sponsors seeking mutual fund‑like characteristics with potentially lower expenses may consider a CIT.
