Investing involves risks including the possible loss of principal. The investment decisions made by the North Carolina CLASS Prime Fund are subject to certain risks and such decisions may not always be profitable. The North Carolina CLASS Prime Fund does not guarantee returns or performance against stated benchmarks. Past performance is not a guarantee of future results. Many factors affect performance including changes in market conditions and interest rates and in response to other economic, political, or financial developments. The following is a summary of common risks associated with investing in a product like the North Carolina CLASS Prime Fund.

Interest Rate Risk

The prices of the fixed-income securities in the North Carolina CLASS Prime Fund will rise and fall in response to changes in the interest rates paid by similar securities. Generally, when interest rates rise, prices of fixed-income securities fall. However, market factors, such as demand for particular fixed-income securities, may cause the price of certain fixed-income securities to fall while the price of other securities rise or remain unchanged. Interest rate changes have a greater effect on the price of fixed-income securities with longer maturities. The Investment Advisor will seek to manage this risk by purchasing short-term securities.

Credit Risk

Credit risk is the possibility that an issuer of a fixed-income security held in the North Carolina CLASS Prime Fund will default on the security by failing to pay interest or principal when due. If an issuer defaults, Participants in the North Carolina CLASS Prime Fund may incur losses. The Investment Advisor will seek to manage this risk by purchasing high quality securities as determined by one or more Nationally Recognized Statistical Ratings Organizations and/or the Investment Advisor’s credit research team.

Stable Net Asset Value Risk

Although the North Carolina CLASS Prime Fund is managed to maintain a stable NAV of $1.00 per Share, there is no guarantee that it will be able to do so.

Investment Not Insured or Guaranteed Risk

An investment in the North Carolina CLASS Prime Fund is neither insured nor guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency.

Liquidity Risk

The North Carolina CLASS Prime Fund is subject to certain liquidity risks in which the size of a bond’s market, the frequency of trades, the ease of valuation, and/or issue size may impact the Investment Advisor’s ability to sell investments in a timely fashion or at or near fair value in order to fulfill a Participant’s redemption request.

Market Risk

Market risk is the risk that the value of securities owned goes up or down, sometimes rapidly and/or unpredictably, due to factors affecting securities markets generally or within particular industries.

Issuer Risk

The risk that the value of a security declines for a reason directly related to the issuer such as management performance, financial leverage, and reduced demand for the issuer’s goods or services.

Default Risk

The risk that a bond issuer (or counterparty) will default by failing to repay principal and interest in a timely manner.
