For Immediate Release:

Indianapolis (May 19, 2009) – The Retirement Services professionals at American United Life Insurance Company ® (AUL) have teamed up with American Century Investment Services, Inc. to offer LIVESTRONG® Portfolios to AUL Retirement Services clients.

Inspired by Lance Armstrong and American Century Investments’ founder and cancer survivor Jim Stowers, Jr., LIVESTRONG Portfolios are a series of target-date asset allocation funds that provide investors with a convenient way to control their retirement savings. LIVESTRONG Portfolios provide insightful management, diversification and automatic portfolio adjustment over time.

“We’re very excited to offer LIVESTRONG Portfolios as an additional investment option for retirement,” said Bill Yoerger, senior vice president of AUL Retirement Services. “Because of the comprehensive mix of funds that are tied to retirement dates, LIVESTRONG Portfolios are an attractive way to assist our clients in managing their retirement dollars while reducing risk and helping a great charitable cause.”

LIVESTRONG Portfolios have earned positive ratings from Morningstar. Additionally, with a commitment to fighting cancer, LIVESTRONG Portfolios do not invest in tobacco companies or charge investors any incremental fees to support the Lance Armstrong Foundation (LAF). Rather, the management company of American Century Investments has made a 10-year, minimum $6 million commitment to support the Lance Armstrong Foundation.

“The OneAmerica companies have a long-standing history of supporting communities and bringing people together for the common good,” Yoerger explained. “Like the Lance Armstrong Foundation that is inspired by the hope, courage and determination that exist in all of us, our philanthropic philosophy mirrors that of American Century Investment and their commitment to the global fight against cancer.”

The performance of the portfolios is dependent on the performance of their underlying American Century Investments funds and will assume the risks associated with these funds. The risks will vary according to each portfolio's asset allocation, and a fund with a later target date is expected to be more volatile than one with an earlier target date.

American Century Investment Services, Inc., Distributor, has entered into an agreement with the LAF for rights to use the LIVESTRONG name. Under this agreement, every dollar invested in LIVESTRONG Portfolios through 2016 will help determine the amount the management company of American Century Investments will pay the LAF above a guaranteed amount. Under limited circumstances, the agreement can be terminated by either party, and there will be no future payments.

Target Maturity Funds are designed for people who plan to retire during or near a specific year. These funds use a strategy that reallocates equity exposure to a higher percentage of fixed investments over time. As a result, the funds become more conservative over time as you approach retirement. It’s important to remember that no strategy can assure a profit or prevent a loss in a declining market.
