Fund Dates of First Sale and Expense Adjustments

CollegeAmerica® is a nationwide plan sponsored by Virginia529℠

Fund results for periods before a share class was sold are hypothetical. These hypothetical returns were calculated by adjusting the results of the original share class of the fund without a sales charge, adjusted for typical estimated expenses. Please see fund prospectuses for more information about specific expenses.

The dates for when Class A, C, F-1, F-2, F-3, 529, ABLE and R shares were first sold, and the annual expense adjustments used to calculate hypothetical returns before those dates, are shown below. The adjustment reflects how many percentage points higher or lower a fund’s estimated expense ratio was than its original share class expense ratio.

  • A positive expense adjustment means that, for the fund shown, hypothetical results for the share class reflect higher expenses than the Class A share.
  • A negative expense adjustment means hypothetical results for the share class reflect lower expenses than the original share class of the fund.
  • A 0.00% expense adjustment means the hypothetical results for the share class have the same expenses as the original share class of the fund.
