Shareholder Expenses

As a shareholder of a Vantagepoint Fund, you incur ongoing expenses, such as advisory fees and other fund expenses. The following example is intended to help you understand your ongoing expenses (in dollars and cents) of investing in a fund and to compare these expenses with the ongoing expenses of investing in other mutual funds. The example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested at the beginning of the period and held for the entire period from July 1, 2012 to December 31, 2012.

Actual Expenses

The first section in the example below provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information in this section, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number for your fund under the heading entitled “Expenses Paid During Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.

Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes

The second section in the example below provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on each fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in your fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION OF MARKET CONDITIONS FOR THE YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 2012

The following represents Vantagepoint Investment Advisers, LLC’s (“VIA”) views of the major market conditions that prevailed in 2012. This commentary should not be considered a complete discussion of all markets, but a brief discussion so that a Fund’s performance can be read in context with the performance of those markets in which it invests. Each Fund’s commentary should be read together with this discussion of market conditions for the year ended December 31, 2012.

Equity and fixed income securities markets offered positive returns for 2012, with equity markets generally outperforming fixed income markets. Equity markets generally offered double-digit returns for the year while bond returns varied, led by the high-yield (“junk bond”) sector. Equity markets and high yield bonds rallied in the first quarter of the year amid signs of improving U.S. economic conditions along with progress on the European sovereign debt crisis. In the second quarter, equity markets lost some of their first quarter gains and longer-maturity U.S. Treasuries prices rose amid renewed concerns about a slowing of the U.S. economic recovery and stability in the eurozone, which consists of those European Union nations that use the euro as their sole national currency. Equity markets and fixed income markets, again led by high yield bonds, offered positive returns in the third quarter as investor sentiment shifted with developments such as the European Central Bank’s pledge to keep the eurozone together and the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve announcement of a third round of quantitative easing. Equity markets offered mixed returns in the fourth quarter, influenced by disappointing corporate earnings reports and U.S. political concerns, while high yield corporate bonds were among the best performing fixed income sectors. The U.S. economy continued to show signs of strengthening over the year, which generally supported investor interest in and returns from riskier holdings. During the year, the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System extended its commitment to maintaining low interest rates in the U.S., and the eurozone continued to work to resolve the debt crisis and economic issues, which also supported investor interest in riskier holdings.

U.S. fixed income markets offered positive returns in 2012, with high yield fixed income securities generally producing the strongest returns. Lower credit quality rated fixed income sectors generally outperformed those with higher credit quality ratings, and longer-maturity fixed income securities generally outperformed shorter-maturity securities. Treasury inflation-protected securities outperformed U.S. Treasuries with similar maturities, reflecting investors’ expectations for inflation. Intermediate and longer term U.S. Treasury interest rates were modestly lower at year end than they were at the beginning of the year.

The U.S. equity market offered double-digit positive returns in 2012, with all sectors of the S&P 500 Index, representing the larger capitalization stocks traded in the U.S., providing positive returns. The returns were led by the economically sensitive Financials and Consumer Discretionary sectors, each with returns in excess of 20 percent. Value-style equities generally offered higher returns than growth-style equities. Equities of mid-capitalization size companies generally outperformed equities of small- and large-capitalization companies.

The equity markets of countries outside the U.S. generally offered positive double-digit returns for the year, and the equity markets of emerging market countries generally outperformed the equity markets of developed countries. Equity markets of countries outside the U.S. varied similarly to the U.S. markets during the first three quarters of the year but generally outperformed the U.S. markets in the fourth quarter and for the year as a whole. Foreign fixed income market returns varied, generally providing positive returns to U.S. dollar investors as the eurozone continued to work to resolve the debt crisis and economic issues.

Vantagepoint Low Duration Bond Fund

The Vantagepoint Low Duration Bond Fund’s investment objective is to seek total return that is consistent with preservation of capital. The Fund invests, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets in bonds and other fixed income securities of varying maturities, and normally invest at least 65% of its net assets in bonds and other fixed income securities with more than one year to maturity. The Fund seeks to maintain a portfolio effective duration of no greater than three years (effective duration is a measure of the expected change in value of a fixed income security for a given change in interest rates). The Fund’s investments may include securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government or foreign governments and their agencies and instrumentalities, or supra-national organizations (such as the World Bank); securities issued by U.S. or foreign companies; U.S. and foreign mortgage-backed and asset-backed securities; and municipal securities. The Fund generally invests in investment grade fixed income securities (i.e., securities rated within the four highest grades by a major ratings agency or unrated securities that the Fund’s subadvisers determine are of comparable quality). The Fund may invest up to 10% of its net assets in securities that are rated below investment grade (commonly known as “high yield securities” or “junk bonds”) or are unrated securities that the Fund’s subadvisers determine are of comparable quality. Investments in foreign securities are limited to 30% of the Fund’s net assets.

The Fund may invest up to 10% of its net assets in derivative instruments. The Fund’s subadvisers may use futures, options, and swap agreements to manage risk or obtain or adjust investment exposure. The Fund’s subadvisers also may use forward currency contracts to obtain or adjust investment exposure or to manage foreign currency risks. The Fund’s investments in credit default swaps, if any, will be less than 5% of the Fund’s net assets.

Performance

The Vantagepoint Low Duration Bond Fund gained 3.97% in 2012. The Fund’s market benchmark, the BofA Merrill Lynch 1–3 Year US Corporate & Government Index, gained 1.48% while the Fund’s peer group benchmark, the Morningstar Short-Term Bond Funds Average, a group of mutual funds with similar investment objectives, gained 3.67%.

The Fund’s absolute performance in 2012 benefited from positive returns in all fixed income sectors included in the Fund, led by the performance of corporate securities, asset-backed securities and mortgage-backed securities. Additionally, the Fund benefitted from an allocation to high-yield securities (“junk bonds”).

The Fund outperformed its market benchmark primarily due to an overweight allocation to investment-grade corporate securities, led by the performance of the Financials sector and asset-backed securities and mortgage-backed securities. Additionally, the Fund’s performance benefitted from an overweight allocation to high yield securities.

The Fund outperformed its peer group benchmark primarily due to an overweight allocation to investment-grade corporate securities. This outperformance was partially offset by an underweight allocation to lower rated investment-grade securities.

The Fund used interest rate futures during the year to seek to manage interest rate risk and to seek to obtain investment exposure based on anticipated changes in interest rates. The use of these derivatives did not have a material impact to the Fund’s return. The Fund used forward currency contracts to manage foreign currency risk associated with the Fund’s foreign bond exposure. The use of forward currency contracts reduced the Fund’s foreign currency risk exposure throughout the year and did not have a material impact on the Fund’s return.

VIA uses more than one subadviser to manage the Fund’s assets. This multi-management strategy seeks to improve consistency of returns over time by eliminating reliance on the results of a single subadviser. The Fund’s subadvisers are as follows:

Vantagepoint Inflation Protected Securities Fund

The Vantagepoint Inflation Protected Securities Fund’s investment objective is to offer current income. The Fund invests, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets in inflation-adjusted U.S. and foreign fixed income securities. Under normal circumstances, the Fund invests at least 50% of its net assets in U.S. Treasury inflation-protected securities (“TIPS”). The Fund’s investments in these securities may include fixed income securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government, foreign governments (national, regional, or local), their agencies or instrumentalities, or supra-national organizations (such as the World Bank); U.S. and foreign corporate fixed income securities; and municipal securities. Investments in U.S. and foreign fixed income securities whose values are not linked to adjustments in inflation rates are limited to 20% of the Fund’s net assets.

The Fund may invest up to 20% of its net assets in derivative instruments. The Fund’s subadvisers may use futures, options, and swap agreements to manage risk or obtain or adjust investment exposure. The Fund’s subadvisers also may use forward currency contracts to obtain or adjust investment exposure or to manage foreign currency risks. The Fund’s investments in credit default swaps, if any, will be less than 5% of the Fund’s net assets.

Performance

The Vantagepoint Inflation Protected Securities Fund gained 6.84% in 2012. The Fund’s market benchmark, the Barclays U.S. Treasury Inflation Protected Securities (TIPS) Index (Series-L), gained 6.98%, while the Fund’s peer group benchmark, the Morningstar Inflation-Protected Bond Funds Average, a group of mutual funds with similar investment objectives, gained 6.45%.

The Fund’s positive absolute return in 2012 was primarily the result of favorable market conditions, with inflation-protected securities benefitting from the decline in real yields.

The Fund’s underperformance relative to its market benchmark primarily resulted from exposures to non-inflation-protected U.S. Treasury securities and to mortgage-backed securities. The underperformance was partially offset by exposure to investment-grade corporate bonds and duration changes of the holdings throughout the year as interest rate expectations changed.

The Fund outperformed its peer group benchmark primarily due to an overweight allocation to inflation-protected bonds, which generally outperformed comparable non-inflation protected bonds. The outperformance was partially offset by an underweight allocation to credit sectors.

The Fund used derivative instruments during the year to seek to manage interest rate risk and to seek to obtain investment exposure based on the Fund subadvisers’ views on interest rates and yield curves. Derivatives used included interest rate and bond futures, options, swaps, and swaptions. Derivatives used to obtain investment exposure provided positive returns, benefitting Fund performance. Interest rate swaps and swaptions used to manage interest rate risk also provided slightly positive returns, benefitting Fund performance.

VIA uses more than one subadviser to manage the Fund’s assets. This multi-management strategy seeks to improve consistency of returns over time by eliminating reliance on the results of a single subadviser. The Fund’s subadvisers are as follows:

Vantagepoint Equity Income Fund

The Vantagepoint Equity Income Fund’s investment objective is to offer long-term capital growth with consistency derived from dividend yield. The Fund invests, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets in equity securities. The Fund seeks to invest primarily in the common stocks of U.S. companies that the Fund’s subadvisers believe will pay dividends at above-market levels. As a result of the Fund’s income focus, certain sectors or industries may be emphasized. The Fund may exhibit greater sensitivity to certain economic factors, such as changing interest rates, than will the general stock market. The Fund may invest across companies of all sizes but generally focuses on larger capitalization companies, which tend to have stable long-term earnings and dividend-paying records. The Fund also may invest in foreign equity securities, U.S. and foreign convertible securities, and U.S. preferred stock.

Performance

The Vantagepoint Equity Income Fund gained 14.33% in 2012. The Fund’s market benchmark, the Russell 1000 Value Index, gained 17.51%, while the Fund’s peer group benchmark, the Morningstar Large Value Funds Average, a group of mutual funds with similar investment objectives, gained 14.57%.

The Fund’s absolute performance generally reflected the positive returns of the U.S. equity market in 2012. The Fund’s positive absolute performance primarily resulted from the returns of holdings in the Materials, Consumer Discretionary, Financials, and Industrials sectors. This positive performance was partially offset by holdings in the Information Technology, Utilities, and Energy sectors.

The Fund’s underperformance relative to its market benchmark primarily resulted from the performance of holdings in the Information Technology, Financials, Energy, and Health Care sectors. Returns of the Fund’s holdings in the Financials sector contributed to this relative underperformance by providing returns that were positive but lower than returns of the benchmark’s holdings in that sector. Favorable performance from holdings in the Materials sector, an overweight allocation to the Consumer Discretionary sector, and an underweight allocation to the Utilities sector partially offset this underperformance.

The Fund’s underperformance relative to its peer group benchmark primarily reflected returns from holdings in the Information Technology, Financials, and Energy sectors. This underperformance was partially offset by returns from holdings in the Industrials and Telecommunication Services sectors, as well as overweight allocations to the Materials sector.

Vantagepoint Growth & Income Fund

The Vantagepoint Growth & Income Fund’s investment objective is to offer long-term capital growth and current income. The Fund invests, under normal circumstances, primarily in U.S. common stocks that the Fund’s subadvisers believe offer the potential for capital appreciation or that may provide current income by paying dividends. Strategies used by the Fund’s subadvisers include: 1) focusing on large-capitalization U.S. companies whose stocks are believed to offer potential for price appreciation because of undervaluation, earnings growth or both; and 2) emphasizing U.S. stocks that may pay dividends. The Fund also may invest in foreign equity securities, mid-capitalization equity securities, U.S. preferred stock, and U.S. convertible securities.

Performance

The Vantagepoint Growth & Income Fund gained 16.53% in 2012. The Fund’s market benchmark, the S&P 500 Index, gained 16.00%, while the Fund’s peer group benchmark, the Morningstar Large Blend Funds Average, a group of mutual funds with similar investment objectives, gained 14.96%.

The Fund’s absolute performance generally reflected the positive returns of the U.S. equity market in 2012. This positive absolute performance primarily resulted from the returns of holdings in the Financials, Industrials, Consumer Discretionary, and Materials sectors.

The Fund’s outperformance relative to its market benchmark primarily resulted from the performance of holdings in the Industrials and Consumer Staples sectors, as well as an underweight allocation to the Utilities sector. The performance of holdings in the Financials, Consumer Discretionary, and Energy sectors partially offset this relative outperformance as the positive absolute performance provided by the Fund’s holdings in these sectors was lower than the performance of the benchmark’s holdings in these sectors.

The Fund’s outperformance relative to its peer group benchmark primarily reflected returns from holdings in the Industrials, Information Technology, and Consumer Staples sectors, as well as an underweight allocation to the Utilities sector. This outperformance was partially offset by returns from holdings in the Health Care sector, as well as an overweight allocation to the Materials sector.

Vantagepoint Growth Fund

The Vantagepoint Growth Fund’s investment objective is to offer long-term capital growth. The Fund invests, under normal circumstances, primarily in U.S. common stocks that are considered by the Fund’s subadvisers to have above-average potential for growth. The subadvisers emphasize stocks of seasoned medium- and large-capitalization firms. The Fund also may invest in foreign equity securities, small-capitalization equity securities, U.S. preferred stock, and U.S. convertible securities.

Performance

The Vantagepoint Growth Fund gained 14.67% in 2012. The Fund’s market benchmark, the Russell 1000 Growth Index, gained 15.26% for the year. The Fund’s peer group benchmark, the Morningstar Large Growth Funds Average, a group of mutual funds with similar investment objectives, gained 15.34%.

The Fund’s absolute performance reflected the generally positive returns of the U.S. equity market in 2012. This positive absolute performance resulted from returns in all sectors in which the Fund had holdings, and particularly from holdings in the Financials, Materials, Health Care, and Consumer Discretionary sectors.

The Fund’s underperformance relative to its market benchmark primarily resulted from the performance of holdings in the Health Care, Consumer Discretionary, and Industrials sectors. While the Fund’s holdings in these sectors provided positive absolute returns, the returns were lower than returns of the benchmark’s holdings in those sectors. An overweight allocation to the Energy sector and the performance of holdings in the Materials and Financials sectors partially offset this underperformance.

The Fund’s underperformance relative to its peer group benchmark primarily resulted from the returns of holdings in the Consumer Discretionary and Information Technology sectors. While the Fund’s holdings in these sectors provided positive absolute returns, the returns were lower than returns of the peer group benchmark’s holdings in those sectors. This underperformance was partially offset by returns from holdings in the Energy, Health Care, and Materials sectors.

Vantagepoint Select Value Fund

The Vantagepoint Select Value Fund’s investment objective is to offer long-term growth from dividend income and capital appreciation. The Fund invests, under normal circumstances, primarily in common stocks of mid-capitalization U.S. companies that the Fund’s subadvisers believe present attractive investment opportunities at favorable prices in relation to the intrinsic worth of the issuer and may also offer the possibility for growth through reinvestment of dividends. The Fund generally seeks to invest in common stocks of companies with market capitalizations that fall within the range of companies in the Russell Midcap Value Index. The Fund may invest up to 10% of its net assets in real estate investment trusts. The Fund also may invest in foreign equity securities, U.S. preferred stocks, U.S. convertible securities, and small-capitalization equity securities.

Performance

The Vantagepoint Select Value Fund gained 16.55% in 2012. The Fund’s market benchmark, the Russell Midcap Value Index, gained 18.51%, while the Fund’s peer group benchmark, the Morningstar Mid-Cap Value Funds Average, a group of mutual funds with similar investment objectives, gained 16.60%.

The Fund’s positive absolute performance reflected positive returns for mid-capitalization stocks in the U.S. equity market in 2012. The Fund’s absolute performance resulted from positive returns in all sectors, led by returns in the Consumer Discretionary, Financials, and Materials sectors.

The Fund’s underperformance relative to its market benchmark primarily resulted from the performance of holdings in the Industrials, Consumer Staples, and Energy sectors, as well as overweight allocations to the Information Technology and Energy sectors. Favorable returns from holdings in the Financials and Materials sectors, as well as an underweight allocation to the Utilities sector partially offset this underperformance.

The Fund’s underperformance relative to its peer group benchmark primarily reflected returns from the Fund’s holdings in the Industrials, Financials, and Consumer Staples sectors providing lower returns than the returns from peers’ holdings in those sectors, as well as an overweight allocation to the Information Technology sector and an underweight allocation to the Materials sector. This underperformance was partially offset by favorable returns from holdings in the Consumer Discretionary sector, as well as an underweight allocation to the Utilities sector.

Vantagepoint Aggressive Opportunities Fund

The Vantagepoint Aggressive Opportunities Fund’s investment objective is to offer high long-term capital appreciation. The Fund invests, under normal circumstances, primarily in common stocks of small- to mid-capitalization U.S. and foreign companies. One or more of the Fund’s subadvisers employing an “actively-managed” strategy seeks to select common stocks it believes offer the opportunity for high capital appreciation. In addition, a portion of the Fund invests in (or obtains exposure to) stocks included in a custom version of the Russell Midcap Growth Index, following an indexed or “passively managed” approach to investing. The range of stocks in which the Fund normally invests is expected to be that of the Russell Midcap Index. The Fund also may invest in foreign equity securities (including those of issuers located in emerging market countries), U.S. preferred stock, and U.S. and foreign convertible securities.

The Fund’s subadvisers may use futures and options to manage risk or to obtain or adjust investment exposure. The Fund’s subadvisers also may manage foreign currency risks by using forward currency contracts. Investments in derivatives are limited to 10% of the Fund’s net assets but normally will not exceed 5% of the Fund’s net assets.

Performance

The Vantagepoint Aggressive Opportunities Fund gained 15.44% in 2012. The Fund’s market benchmark, the Russell Midcap Growth Index, gained 15.81%, while its peer group benchmark, the Morningstar Mid-Cap Growth Funds Average, a group of mutual funds with similar investment objectives, gained 14.07%.

The Fund’s absolute performance reflected the generally positive returns for mid- and small- capitalization stocks in the U.S. equity market in 2012. The Fund’s positive absolute performance resulted from returns in all sectors except Energy, and was led by the returns from holdings in the Health Care, Telecommunications, Materials and Consumer Discretionary sectors.

The Fund’s underperformance relative to its market benchmark primarily resulted from the performance of holdings in the Financials, Industrials and Information Technology sectors. Favorable returns from holdings in the Health Care and Consumer Discretionary sectors partially offset this underperformance.

The Fund’s outperformance relative to its peer group benchmark primarily reflected returns from holdings in the Health Care and Materials sectors, as well as an overweight allocation to the Telecommunications sector. This outperformance was partially offset by the performance of holdings in the Information Technology and Industrials sectors.

Vantagepoint Discovery Fund

The Vantagepoint Discovery Fund’s investment objective is to offer long-term capital growth. The Fund invests, under normal circumstances, primarily in a combination of common stocks of U.S. small capitalization companies, Russell 2000 Index futures contracts, and U.S. and foreign fixed income securities. The Fund’s subadvisers select stocks that they believe have above average potential for growth and that generally have market capitalizations that fall within the range of companies in the Russell 2000 Index. The Fund’s U.S. and foreign fixed income securities (1) are held, in part, as collateral in conjunction with the Fund’s use of futures contracts; (2) may include government and agency securities, corporate bonds, mortgage-backed securities, asset-backed securities, and municipal securities; and (3) at all times have a portfolio effective duration no greater than three years (effective duration is a measure of the expected change in value of a fixed income security for a given change in interest rates). The Fund also may invest in foreign equity securities (including those of issuers located in emerging market countries), U.S. preferred stock, and U.S. and foreign convertible securities. The Fund’s fixed income securities are generally investment grade securities (i.e., securities rated within the four highest grades by a major ratings agency or unrated securities that the Fund’s subadvisers determine are of comparable quality). In addition to Russell 2000 Index futures contracts, the Fund’s subadvisers may use futures, options, and swap agreements to manage risk, or to obtain or adjust investment exposure. The Fund’s subadvisers also may use forward currency contracts to obtain or adjust investment exposure or to manage foreign currency risks. The Fund’s investments in derivative instruments are limited to 15% of the Fund’s net assets.

Performance

The Vantagepoint Discovery Fund gained 15.74% in 2012. The Fund’s market benchmark, the Russell 2000 Index, gained 16.35%, while its peer group benchmark, the Morningstar Small Blend Funds Average, a group of mutual funds with similar investment objectives, gained 15.46%.

The Fund’s absolute performance primarily reflected the positive returns for small-capitalization stocks and futures on those stocks in the U.S. equity market in 2012. The positive absolute return for the Fund primarily resulted from the performance of holdings in the Health Care, Consumer Discretionary, and Industrials sectors, which was partially offset by returns from holdings in the Telecommunications Services, Energy, and Consumer Staples sectors. The Fund’s fixed income securities, held in conjunction with the Russell 2000 Index futures contracts, generated positive absolute returns.

The Fund’s underperformance relative to its market benchmark primarily resulted from the performance of holdings in the Financials, Energy, and Materials sectors, as well as an overweight allocation to the Energy sector. Favorable returns from holdings in the Health Care and Information Technology sectors partially offset this underperformance.

The Fund’s outperformance relative to its peer group benchmark primarily reflected returns from holdings in the Health Care, Consumer Discretionary, and Industrials sectors. This outperformance was partially offset by returns from holdings in the Telecommunication Services sector.

The Fund used derivative instruments during the year. Consistent with the Fund’s principal investment strategy, the Fund invested in Russell 2000 Index futures to seek to gain market exposure to U.S. small-capitalization stocks. The use of Russell 2000 Index futures had a significant positive impact on Fund performance. In the Fund’s fixed income portfolio that is associated with the Russell 2000 Index futures contracts, the Fund used bond futures during the year to seek to manage interest rate risk and to seek to obtain investment exposure based on the Fund subadvisers’ views on interest rates and yield curves. These futures did not have a significant impact on the Fund’s performance. The Fund used forward currency contracts to manage foreign currency risk associated with the Fund’s foreign bond exposure. The use of forward currency contracts reduced the volatility of returns to the Fund throughout the year but did not have a significant impact to the Fund’s return.

For the purpose of displaying this allocation information, exposure through derivatives is measured based on the value of the underlying assets, rate or index represented by the derivative. This measurement is different from the valuation used for the purposes of calculating the Fund’s net asset value, is intended to reflect the “economic exposure” of the derivative, and results in a total percentage in the chart that exceeds 100%.

Vantagepoint International Fund

The Vantagepoint International Fund’s investment objective is to offer long-term capital growth and diversification by country. The Fund invests primarily in the common stocks of companies headquartered outside of the United States. Under normal circumstances, the Fund invests at least 80% of its net assets in foreign equity securities (common and preferred stock), including those of issuers located in emerging market countries. Strategies used by the Fund’s subadvisers include: 1) investing in equity securities believed to have above average potential for growth across multiple capitalization sizes; and 2) investing in equity securities believed to be priced below fair market value at the time of purchase. The Fund also may invest in U.S. or foreign fixed income securities, U.S. equity securities, and U.S. or foreign convertible securities.

The Fund’s subadvisers may use futures and options to manage risk or to obtain or adjust investment exposure. The Fund’s subadvisers also may use forward currency contracts to obtain or adjust investment exposure or to manage foreign currency risks. Investments in derivatives are limited to 10% of the Fund’s net assets but normally will not exceed 5% of the Fund’s net assets.

Performance

The Vantagepoint International Fund gained 18.57% in 2012. The Fund’s market benchmark, the MSCI Europe Australasia and Far East (EAFE) Index (Net), gained 17.32%, while its peer group benchmark, the Morningstar Foreign Large Blend Funds Average, a group of mutual funds with similar investment objectives, gained 18.29%.

The Fund’s absolute return reflected the positive returns to U.S. investors from foreign stocks in 2012. The Fund experienced gains in all geographic regions, but particularly in continental Europe in the second half of the year and developed Asia excluding Japan. Returns to U.S. investors were positive in Japan, but reduced by the currency effect of a weakened Yen.

The Fund’s outperformance relative to its market benchmark primarily resulted from the performance of holdings in developed Asian countries. An underweight allocation to Japan and an overweight allocation to emerging markets also benefitted performance. In developed countries, an underweight allocation to the Financials sector along with underperformance from holdings in that sector partially offset this outperformance.

The Fund’s outperformance relative to its peer group benchmark primarily reflected the returns from holdings in developed Asia excluding Japan and an overweight allocation to the region. Returns from holdings in the Consumer Discretionary and Energy sectors benefitted performance, while an underweight allocation to and underperformance by holdings in the Financials sector partially offset this outperformance.

The Fund used forward foreign currency contracts during the year to manage foreign currency risk, which served to reduce the impact of foreign currency fluctuations on U.S. dollar returns and, obtain or adjust investment exposure to foreign currencies to facilitate the trading of the foreign securities in which the fund is invested.

VIA uses more than one subadviser to manage the Fund’s assets. This multi-management strategy seeks to improve consistency of returns over time by eliminating reliance on the results of a single subadviser. The Fund’s subadvisers are as follows:

Vantagepoint Diversifying Strategies Fund

The Vantagepoint Diversifying Strategies Fund’s investment objective is to offer long-term capital growth. The Fund employs multiple investment strategies to seek long-term growth of capital, with lower volatility over time than that of stocks in general and a risk/return profile different from that of traditional asset classes, such as stocks and fixed income securities (i.e., a “low correlation” to such asset classes). In combination, the Fund’s investment strategies seek to provide investment exposure to U.S. and foreign stocks and fixed income securities (including convertible securities) and foreign currencies through direct investments or through the use of derivative instruments. The Fund employed three strategies in 2012 — a global tactical asset allocation strategy, a low duration-plus fixed income strategy, and a convertible securities strategy. The Fund’s assets allocated to the global tactical asset allocation strategy are invested in derivative instruments that provide investment exposure to equity securities, investment grade fixed income securities, and currencies issued by issuers located in any part of the world, including emerging market countries. The Fund’s assets allocated to the convertible securities strategy are invested in U.S. and foreign convertible securities (which may include securities of issuers located in emerging market countries), and also may be invested in a combination of either convertible or non-convertible bonds, and common stocks or equity options, to seek to replicate the investment exposure of convertible securities or to seek to manage risk. In addition, the Fund’s assets allocated to this strategy may also be invested in non-convertible bonds, common stocks as well as restricted securities. The Fund’s assets allocated to the low duration-plus fixed income strategy are invested in core short and intermediate maturity U.S. and foreign fixed income securities that combined generally have a portfolio effective duration of no greater than three years (effective duration is a measure of the expected change in value of a fixed income security for a given change in interest rates).

The Fund uses derivative instruments, including futures and options, swap agreements, and forward currency contracts, to achieve desired investment exposure, enhance portfolio efficiency, or manage risk. Trading in derivative instruments is used as an alternative to, or in conjunction with, buying, selling, and holding stocks and fixed income securities. The Fund may take both long and short positions in derivatives. The market value of the Fund’s net assets held in short positions in derivative instruments is not expected to exceed 25% of the market value of the Fund’s net assets. Normally, on average and over the long term, this percentage is expected to be between 0% and 10%. The Fund does not sell underlying securities short. The Fund’s investments in credit default swaps, if any, will be less than 5% of the Fund’s net assets.

Performance

The Vantagepoint Diversifying Strategies Fund gained 3.53% during 2012. The Fund’s market benchmark, the Barclays U.S. Intermediate Aggregate Bond Index, gained 3.56%. The Fund’s custom benchmark, which is comprised of 50% S&P 500 Index and 50% Barclays U.S. Intermediate Aggregate Bond Index, gained 9.76%.

The Fund’s positive absolute performance in 2012 resulted from favorable returns from the convertible securities and low duration-plus fixed income strategies. The global tactical asset allocation strategy had a neutral impact on the Fund’s absolute performance.

The Fund’s underperformance relative to its market benchmark resulted from the neutral absolute performance in the global tactical asset allocation strategy underperforming the positive performance in the Fund’s market benchmark. This underperformance primarily reflected underperformance in its currency and equity markets allocations. Performance in the low duration-plus fixed income strategy partially offset this underperformance, primarily due to strength in its investment grade and high yield (“junk bond”) holdings. The convertible securities strategy also partially offset the Fund’s relative underperformance due to its greater equity sensitivity.

The Fund’s underperformance relative to its custom benchmark resulted from each underlying strategy underperforming the custom benchmark. The neutral absolute performance in the global tactical asset allocation strategy underperformed the positive performance in the Fund’s custom benchmark and primarily reflected underperformance in the currency and equity markets allocations. The low duration-plus fixed income strategy and convertible securities strategy both outperformed the fixed income segment of the custom benchmark, but underperformed the blended custom benchmark.

The Fund used derivatives in 2012, primarily in executing its global tactical asset allocation strategy. The Fund used exchange-traded interest rate futures and options on interest rate futures to take long and short positions in U.S. and foreign government bonds. It also used exchange-traded equity futures and, to a lesser extent, over-the-counter options to gain long and short exposure to global equity markets. Additionally, the Fund utilized forward currency contracts to gain or alter exposure to currencies. In combination, the Fund used derivatives positions to seek to provide efficiency in implementing the Fund’s strategy. The Fund’s use of derivatives generally had a neutral impact on the Fund’s absolute performance.

Vantagepoint Diversifying Strategies Fund Asset Class Exposure

as of December 31, 2012* (% of Net Assets)

* The Fund’s investments in convertible securities may be categorized as stocks or bonds in the above chart, and may consist of direct holdings of such securities or exposure to such securities obtained through the use of derivative instruments. Portfolio exposures represent the market value of physical securities and a measurement of exposure to asset classes through the derivative instruments held by the fund as a percent of the fund’s net assets. For the purpose of displaying this allocation information, exposure through derivatives is measured based on the value of the underlying assets, rate, or index represented by the derivative. This measurement is different from the valuation used for the purposes of calculating the fund’s net asset value, is intended to reflect the “economic exposure” of the derivative, and results in a total percentage reflected in the chart that exceeds 100%. In its use of derivative instruments, the fund may take both long positions (the values of which move in the same direction as the prices of the underlying investments, pools of investments, indexes or currencies) and short positions (the values of which move in the opposite direction as the prices of the underlying investments, pools of investments, indexes or currencies). These long and short positions are reflected above.

Vantagepoint Index Funds

The Vantagepoint Index Funds follow an indexed or “passively managed” approach to investing. The Index Funds invest in securities that are selected to try to approximate the investment characteristics and performance of their respective benchmarks. Because it can be very expensive to buy and sell all of the securities in a target benchmark, the Index Funds, with the exception of the 500 Stock Index Fund and the Overseas Equity Index Fund, employ sampling techniques to approximate benchmark characteristics, such as capitalization and industry weightings, using fewer securities than are contained in the benchmark. Therefore, the performance of the Index Funds versus their respective benchmarks may deviate more than that of funds investing in all of the securities contained in the benchmark. The 500 Stock Index Fund invests, under normal circumstances, at least 90% of its net assets in stocks included in the S&P 500 Index, weighted to seek to replicate the investment characteristics and performance that correlates with that of the index. The Overseas Equity Index Fund invests, under normal circumstances, at least 90% of its net assets in equity securities included in the MSCI Europe Australasia Far East (EAFE) Index (Net), weighted to seek to replicate the investment characteristics and performance that correlates with that of the index.

 

  1. The Vantagepoint Core Bond Index Fund’s investment objective is to offer current income by approximating the performance of the Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index.

 

  2. The Vantagepoint 500 Stock Index Fund’s investment objective is to offer long-term capital growth by approximating the performance of the S&P 500 Index.

 

  3. The Vantagepoint Broad Market Index Fund’s investment objective is to offer long-term capital growth by approximating the performance of the Wilshire 5000 Total Market Index.

 

  4. The Vantagepoint Mid/Small Company Index Fund’s investment objective is to offer long-term capital growth by approximating the performance of the Wilshire 4500 Completion Index.

 

  5. The Vantagepoint Overseas Equity Index Fund’s investment objective is to offer long-term capital growth and diversification by approximating the performance of the MSCI Europe Australasia Far East (EAFE) Index (Net).

Performance

Performance of the Index Funds will differ from the underlying indexes for several reasons. First, fund fees and expenses reduce Fund performance, while the indexes themselves bear no management fees, transaction costs or other expenses. Second, due to sampling techniques used by the Core Bond, Broad Market, and Mid/Small Company Index Funds, there will be tracking error, which may impact Fund performance positively or negatively. Third, changes to the indexes, such as additions or deletions in the securities contained in an index and rebalancing, can cause tracking error which may impact the Fund’s performance positively or negatively as compared to its benchmark index. Fourth, the timing of cash flows into and out of a Fund will affect its ability to precisely track its underlying index. Fifth, there may be pricing differences if the underlying index and the Fund use different pricing sources. This is more common in the Overseas Equity Index Fund and the Core Bond Index Fund.

The Vantagepoint Core Bond Index Fund gained 3.80% (Class I shares) and 3.98% (Class II shares). The Fund’s market benchmark, the Barclays U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, gained 4.21%.

The Vantagepoint 500 Stock Index Fund gained 15.62% (Class I shares) and 15.74% (Class II shares). The Fund’s market benchmark, the S&P 500 Index, gained 16.00%.

The Vantagepoint Broad Market Index Fund gained 15.64% (Class I shares) and 15.82% (Class II shares). The Fund’s market benchmark, the Wilshire 5000 Total Market Index, gained 16.06%.

The Vantagepoint Mid/Small Company Index Fund gained 17.89% (Class I shares) and 18.17% (Class II shares). The Fund’s market benchmark, the Wilshire 4500 Completion Index, gained 17.99%.

The Vantagepoint Overseas Equity Index Fund gained 18.51% (Class I shares) and 18.74% (Class II shares). The Fund’s market benchmark, the MSCI EAFE Index (Net), gained 17.32%.

The 500 Stock Index Fund, Broad Market Index Fund, Mid/Small Company Index Fund, and Overseas Equity Index Fund used futures to obtain or adjust investment exposure to equity issues when it was believed that using futures would be more efficient or cost effective than trading in the securities directly. The Overseas Equity Fund also used forward currency contracts to manage foreign currency risk associated with the Fund’s foreign equity exposure. The use of forward currency contracts reduced the Fund’s foreign currency risk exposure throughout the year.

The Index Funds’ subadviser is Mellon Capital Management Corporation.

The Vantagepoint Model Portfolio Savings Oriented Fund’s investment objective is to offer capital preservation, reasonable current income, and some capital growth while seeking to limit risk. The Fund invests in a combination of underlying Vantagepoint Funds to seek to obtain exposure to approximately 55% fixed income investments, 25% equity investments, and 20% investments in asset classes and strategies that have historically exhibited a low correlation to traditional fixed income and equity investments (a “multi-strategy” Fund), by investing in the following Vantagepoint Funds at target allocations within the percentage ranges indicated:

 

FIXED INCOME FUNDS

    

Low Duration Bond Fund

   26%–36%

Core Bond Index Fund

   4%–14%

Inflation Protected Securities Fund

   10%–20%

EQUITY FUNDS

    

Equity Income Fund

   5%–15%

Growth & Income Fund

   5%–15%

International Fund

   0%–10%

MULTI-STRATEGY FUND

    

Diversifying Strategies Fund

   18%–22%

Performance

The Vantagepoint Model Portfolio Savings Oriented Fund gained 7.20% in 2012. The Fund’s market benchmark, the Barclays U.S. Intermediate Aggregate Bond Index (the Barclays Index), gained 3.56%, while the Fund’s peer group benchmark, the Morningstar Conservative Allocation Funds Average, a group of mutual funds with similar investment objectives, gained 9.40%. The Fund’s custom benchmark gained 6.65%. The Fund’s custom benchmark is composed of the S&P 500 Index and the Barclays Index, in weighted percentages corresponding to the historical target allocations for the asset classes these indexes represent.

The Model Portfolio Savings Oriented Fund produced a positive absolute return in 2012 due to the positive performance of all of the underlying funds. The positive absolute performance primarily resulted from exposure to the underlying equity funds, with the International Fund providing the most favorable performance. The Fund’s three underlying fixed income funds all produced positive returns, as the Inflation Protected Securities Fund increased 6.84%, Low Duration Bond Fund gained 3.97%, and Core Bond Index Fund (Class I) rose 3.80%. The Fund’s three underlying equity funds also produced positive returns, as the International Fund gained 18.57%, Growth & Income Fund gained 16.53%, and Equity Income Fund returned 14.33%. The Diversifying Strategies Fund, a multi-strategy Fund, gained 3.53%. Please refer to each underlying fund’s commentary within this report for more information.

The Fund’s outperformance relative to its market benchmark, which is a fixed income benchmark, resulted from returns of all of the underlying funds with the exception of the Diversifying Strategies Fund, which marginally underperformed the Fund’s market benchmark. The Fund’s equity fund allocation particularly benefitted the Fund’s relative performance as the underlying equity funds outperformed the underlying fixed income funds.

The Fund’s underperformance relative to its peer group benchmark primarily reflected its lower than peer average allocation to equity funds, which outperformed fixed income funds. Additionally, the underlying fixed income funds’ investments in higher credit-rated securities detracted from relative performance, as lower credit-rating securities generally outperformed higher credit-rating securities, within both the investment-grade and the high-yield (“junk bond”) market sectors.

The Fund’s outperformance relative to its custom benchmark resulted from each underlying fixed income fund and each underlying equity fund (except the Equity Income Fund) outperforming the Barclays Index and the S&P 500 Index, respectively. The Diversifying Strategies Fund, which trailed the performance of the Barclays Index, also partially offset this outperformance.

Vantagepoint Model Portfolio Conservative Growth Fund

The Vantagepoint Model Portfolio Conservative Growth Fund’s investment objective is to offer reasonable current income and capital preservation, with modest potential for capital growth.

Performance

The Vantagepoint Model Portfolio Conservative Growth Fund gained 8.88% in 2012. The Fund’s market benchmark, the Barclays U.S. Intermediate Aggregate Bond Index (the Barclays Index), gained 3.56%, while the Fund’s peer group benchmark, the Morningstar Conservative Allocation Funds Average, a group of mutual funds with similar investment objectives, gained 9.40%. The Fund’s custom benchmark gained 8.52%. The Fund’s custom benchmark is composed of the Barclays Index and the S&P 500 Index, in weighted percentages corresponding to the historical target allocations for the asset classes these indexes represent.

The Model Portfolio Conservative Growth Fund produced a positive absolute return in 2012 due to the positive performance of all of the underlying funds. The positive absolute performance primarily resulted from exposure to the underlying equity funds, with the International Fund providing the most favorable performance. The Fund’s six underlying equity funds all produced positive results, with returns ranging between 18.57% for the International Fund and 14.33% for the Equity Income Fund. The Fund’s three underlying fixed income funds all produced positive returns, as the Inflation Protected Securities Fund increased 6.84%, Low Duration Bond Fund gained 3.97%, and Core Bond Index Fund (Class I) rose 3.80%. The Diversifying Strategies Fund gained 3.53%. Please refer to each underlying fund’s commentary within this report for more information.

The Fund’s outperformance relative to its market benchmark, which is a fixed income benchmark, resulted from returns of all of the underlying funds with the exception of the Diversifying Strategies Fund, which marginally underperformed the Fund’s market benchmark. The Fund’s equity fund allocation particularly benefitted the Fund’s relative performance as the underlying equity funds outperformed the underlying fixed income funds.

The Fund’s underperformance relative to its peer group benchmark primarily resulted from an overweight allocation, through its underlying equity funds, to growth-style equity securities, as value-style equity securities generally outperformed growth-style equity securities. Additionally, the underlying fixed income funds’ investment in higher credit-rating securities detracted from relative performance, as lower credit-rating securities generally outperformed higher credit-rating securities, within both the investment-grade and the high-yield (“junk bond”) market sectors.

The Fund’s outperformance relative to its custom benchmark primarily resulted from each underlying fixed income fund outperforming the Barclays Index, and from the International Fund, Select Value Fund, and Growth & Income Fund outperforming the S&P 500 Index. The Fund’s allocations to the Equity Income Fund, Growth Fund, Aggressive Opportunities Fund, and Diversifying Strategies Fund partially offset this outperformance as these underlying funds underperformed the respective broad market index in the Fund’s custom benchmark.

Performance

The Vantagepoint Model Portfolio Traditional Growth Fund gained 11.20% in 2012. The Fund’s market benchmark, the S&P 500 Index, gained 16.00%, while the Fund’s peer group benchmark, the Morningstar Moderate Allocation Funds Average, a group of mutual funds with similar investment objectives, gained 11.72%. The Fund’s custom benchmark gained 11.01%. The Fund’s custom benchmark is composed of the S&P 500 Index and the Barclays U.S. Intermediate Aggregate Bond Index (the Barclays Index), in weighted percentages corresponding to the historical target allocations for the asset classes these indexes represent.

The Model Portfolio Traditional Growth Fund produced a positive absolute return in 2012 due to the positive performance of all of the underlying funds. The positive absolute performance primarily resulted from allocations to the underlying equity funds, with the International Fund providing the most favorable performance. The Fund’s seven underlying equity funds all produced positive results, with returns ranging between 18.57% for the International Fund and 14.33% for the Equity Income Fund. The Fund’s three underlying fixed income funds all produced positive returns, as the Inflation Protected Securities Fund increased 6.84%, Low Duration Bond Fund gained 3.97%, and Core Bond Index Fund (Class I) rose 3.80%. The Diversifying Strategies Fund gained 3.53%. Please refer to each underlying fund’s commentary within this report for more information.

The Fund’s underperformance relative to its market benchmark, which is an equity benchmark, primarily resulted from its allocation to fixed income funds and the multi-strategy fund, as these underlying funds generally trailed the Fund’s equity market benchmark. Additionally, the Equity Income Fund, Growth Fund, Aggressive Opportunities Fund, and Discovery Fund underperformed the Fund’s market benchmark. The Fund’s allocations to the Growth & Income Fund, Select Value Fund, and International Fund partially offset this underperformance, as these underlying funds outperformed the Fund’s market benchmark.

The Fund’s underperformance relative to its peer group benchmark primarily resulted from the underlying fixed income funds’ investments in higher credit-rating securities, as lower credit-rating securities generally outperformed higher credit-rating securities, within both the investment-grade and the high-yield (“junk bond”) sectors. This underperformance was partially offset by the underlying equity funds, as each underlying equity fund outperformed the Fund’s peer group benchmark. Additionally, an overweight allocation, through the underlying funds, to foreign equity securities, which generally outperformed U.S. equity securities, and an overweight allocation, through the Inflation Protected Securities Fund, to U.S. Treasury inflation-protected securities, which outperformed U.S. Treasuries, partially offset this underperformance.

Vantagepoint Model Portfolio Long-Term Growth Fund

The Vantagepoint Model Portfolio Long-Term Growth Fund’s investment objective is to offer high long-term capital growth and modest current income.

Performance

The Vantagepoint Model Portfolio Long-Term Growth Fund gained 12.93% in 2012. The Fund’s market benchmark, the S&P 500 Index, gained 16.00%, while the Fund’s peer group benchmark, the Morningstar Aggressive Allocation Funds Average, a group of mutual funds with similar investment objectives, gained 13.42%. The Fund’s custom benchmark gained 12.88%. The Fund’s custom benchmark is composed of the S&P 500 Index and the Barclays U.S. Intermediate Aggregate Bond Index (the Barclays Index), in weighted percentages corresponding to the historical target allocations for the asset classes these indexes represent.

The Model Portfolio Long-Term Growth Fund produced a positive absolute return in 2012 due to the positive performance of all of the underlying funds. The positive absolute performance primarily resulted from exposure to the underlying equity funds, with the International Fund providing the most favorable performance. The Fund’s seven underlying equity funds produced returns ranging from 18.57% for the International Fund to 14.33% for the Equity Income Fund. The Fund’s single fixed income fund, the Core Bond Index Fund (Class I), returned 3.80%. Also, the Diversifying Strategies Fund gained 3.53%. Please refer to each underlying fund’s commentary within this report for more information.

The Fund’s underperformance relative to its market benchmark primarily resulted from its allocation to the Core Bond Index Fund (Class I) and the Diversifying Strategies Fund, as these underlying funds generally trailed the Fund’s equity market benchmark. Additionally, the Equity Income Fund, Growth Fund, Aggressive Opportunities Fund, and Discovery Fund underperformed the Fund’s market benchmark. The Fund’s allocations to the Growth & Income Fund, Select Value Fund, and International Fund partially offset this underperformance, as these underlying funds outperformed the Fund’s market benchmark.

The Fund’s underperformance relative to its peer group benchmark primarily resulted from an underweight exposure to equity funds, as the underlying equity funds generally outperformed the Core Bond Index Fund (Class I), as well as from the Core Bond Index Fund’s investments in higher credit-rating securities, as lower credit-rating securities generally outperformed higher credit-rating securities, including within the investment-grade sector. This underperformance was partially offset by an overweight allocation, through the underlying equity funds, to value-style equity securities, as value-style equity securities generally outperformed growth-style equity securities.

Vantagepoint Model Portfolio All-Equity Growth Fund

The Vantagepoint Model Portfolio All-Equity Growth Fund’s investment objective is to offer high long-term capital growth. The Fund invests, under normal circumstances, 100% of its net assets in equity funds by investing in a combination of other Vantagepoint Funds whose assets are invested, under normal circumstances, at least 80% in equity securities (common and preferred stock) or instruments that provide equity exposure. This investment strategy is implemented by investing in the following Vantagepoint Funds at target allocations within the percentage ranges indicated:

 

EQUITY FUNDS

    

Equity Income Fund

   13%–23%

Growth & Income Fund

   12%–22%

Growth Fund

   12%–22%

Select Value Fund

   5%–15%

Aggressive Opportunities Fund

   5%–15%

Discovery Fund

   4%–14%

International Fund

   15%–25%

Performance

The Vantagepoint Model Portfolio All-Equity Growth Fund gained 16.00% in 2012. The Fund’s market benchmark, the S&P 500 Index, gained 16.00%, while the Fund’s peer group benchmark, the Morningstar Large Blend Funds Average, a group of mutual funds with similar investment objectives, gained 14.96%. The Fund’s custom benchmark gained 16.34%. The Fund’s custom benchmark is composed of the S&P 500 Index and the MSCI EAFE Index (Net) (the MSCI-EAFE Index), in weighted percentages corresponding to the historical target allocations for the asset classes these indexes represent.

The Model Portfolio All-Equity Growth Fund produced a positive absolute return in 2012 due to the positive performance of all of the underlying funds, with the International Fund providing the most favorable performance. The Fund’s seven underlying funds produced returns ranging from 18.57% for the International Fund to 14.33% for the Equity Income Fund. Please refer to each underlying fund’s commentary within this report for more information.

The Fund’s performance matched its market benchmark as a result of the performance of the underlying funds and their allocation within the Fund. While the Equity Income Fund, Growth Fund, Aggressive Opportunities Fund, and Discovery Fund underperformed the Fund’s market benchmark, outperformance from the International Fund, Select Value Fund, and Growth & Income Fund offset this underperformance.

The Fund’s outperformance relative to its peer group benchmark was primarily due to an overweight allocation, through the underlying funds, to foreign equity securities, which outperformed U.S. equity securities. Additionally, within the underlying funds allocations to foreign securities, an overweight to emerging market foreign equity securities, through the underlying funds, benefitted relative performance, as emerging market equity securities outperformed foreign developed market equity securities.

The Fund’s underperformance relative to its custom benchmark resulted from the Fund’s allocation to equity funds that trailed the performance of the S&P 500 Index. This underperformance was partially offset by the International Fund outperforming the MSCI-EAFE Index, and the Select Value Fund and Growth & Income Fund outperforming the S&P 500 Index.

The Fund’s outperformance relative to its market benchmark, which is a fixed income benchmark, resulted from the returns of all of the underlying funds with the exception of the Diversifying Strategies Fund, which marginally underperformed the Fund’s market benchmark. The Fund’s allocation to the underlying equity funds particularly benefitted the Fund’s relative performance, as the underlying equity funds generally outperformed the underlying fixed income funds.

The Fund’s underperformance relative to its peer group benchmark primarily resulted from an underweight exposure to equity funds, as the underlying equity funds generally outperformed the underling fixed income funds. Additionally, the Fund had an underweight allocation, through its underlying funds, in foreign equity securities, which detracted from relative performance, as foreign equity securities generally outperformed U.S. equity securities. Within the Fund’s allocation to fixed income funds, the underlying fixed income funds’ investments in higher credit-rating, lower price-volatility securities detracted from relative performance, as lower credit-rating securities generally outperformed higher credit-rating securities. An overweight allocation, through the underlying equity funds, to value-style equity securities partially offset the underperformance, as value-style equity securities generally outperformed growth-style equity securities.

The Fund’s outperformance relative to its custom benchmark primarily resulted from each underlying fixed income fund outperforming the Barclays Index, and from the International Fund and the Growth & Income Fund outperforming the S&P 500 Index. The Fund’s allocations to the Equity Income Fund and Diversifying Strategies Fund partially offset the outperformance, as these underlying funds underperformed the respective broad market benchmarks in the Fund’s custom benchmark.

Vantagepoint Milestone 2010 Fund

The Vantagepoint Milestone 2010 Fund’s investment objective is to offer high total return consistent with the Fund’s current asset allocation. The Fund invests in a combination of underlying Vantagepoint Funds using an asset allocation strategy designed for investors who retired in or around the year 2010 and would like to make gradual withdrawals from the Fund.

The Fund’s allocations will change over time. The Fund invests in the following Vantagepoint Funds at target allocations within the current ranges indicated:

 

FIXED INCOME FUNDS

    

Low Duration Bond Fund

   11%–21%

Core Bond Index Fund

   2%–12%

Inflation Protected Securities Fund

   10%–20%

EQUITY FUNDS

    

Equity Income Fund

   13%–23%

Growth & Income Fund

   6%–16%

Growth Fund

   2%–12%

International Fund

   4%–14%

MULTI-STRATEGY FUND

    

Diversifying Strategies Fund

   13%–23%

The Fund follows a strategy that as time elapses, the Fund’s allocation to equity investments decreases and the Fund’s allocation to fixed income and multi strategy investments increases so that by June 30 of the year 2020 (ten years after the year indicated in the Fund’s name), the Fund’s net assets will be invested approximately 25% in equity Funds, 55% in fixed income Funds, and 20% in the multi-strategy Fund.

Performance

The Vantagepoint Milestone 2010 Fund gained 9.53% in 2012. The Fund’s market benchmark, the Barclays U.S. Intermediate Aggregate Bond Index (the Barclays Index), gained 3.56%, while the Fund’s peer group benchmark, the Morningstar Target Date 2000-2010 Funds Average, a group of mutual funds with similar investment objectives, gained 9.61%. The Fund’s custom benchmark gained 9.11%. The Fund’s custom benchmark is composed of the Barclays Index and the S&P 500 Index, in weighted percentages corresponding to the historical target allocations for the asset classes these indexes represent.

All of the underlying funds of the Milestone 2010 Fund produced positive absolute returns in 2012. The Inflation Protected Securities Fund increased 6.84%, the Low Duration Bond Fund gained 3.97%, and the Core Bond Index Fund (Class I) rose 3.80%. The Fund’s underlying equity funds produced returns ranging from 18.57% for the International Fund to 14.33% for the Equity Income Fund. The Diversifying Strategies Fund gained 3.53%. Please refer to each underlying fund’s commentary within this report for more information.

The Fund’s outperformance relative to its market benchmark, which is a fixed income benchmark, resulted from returns of all of the underlying funds with the exception of the Diversifying Strategies Fund, which underperformed the Fund’s market benchmark. The Fund’s allocation to equity funds particularly benefitted the Fund’s relative performance, as the underlying equity funds generally outperformed the underlying fixed income funds.

The Fund’s underperformance relative to its peer group benchmark primarily resulted from the Fund’s underweight allocation, through its underlying funds, to foreign equity securities, as foreign equity securities generally outperformed U.S. equity securities. Within the Fund’s allocation to fixed income funds, the underlying fixed income funds’ investments in higher credit-rating, lower price-volatility securities detracted from relative performance, as lower credit-rating securities generally outperformed higher credit-rating securities. An overweight allocation to equity funds partially offset this underperformance, as the underlying equity funds generally outperformed the underlying fixed income funds. Additionally, through the underlying equity funds, an overweight allocation to value-style equity securities partially offset the underperformance, as value-style equity securities generally outperformed growth-style equity securities.

   12%–22%

The Fund follows a strategy that as time elapses, the Fund’s allocation to equity investments decreases and the Fund’s allocation to fixed income and multi-strategy investments increases so that by June 30 of the year 2025 (ten years after the year indicated in the Fund’s name), the Fund’s asset allocation would be approximately 25% equity Funds, 55% fixed income Funds, and 20% in a multi-strategy Fund.

Performance

The Vantagepoint Milestone 2015 Fund gained 10.25% in 2012. The Fund’s market benchmark, the S&P 500 Index, gained 16.00%, while the Fund’s peer group benchmark, the Morningstar Target Date 2011–2015 Funds Average, a group of mutual funds with similar investment objectives, gained 10.65%.

The Fund’s custom benchmark is composed of the S&P 500 Index and the Barclays U.S. Intermediate Aggregate Bond Index (the Barclays Index), in weighted percentages corresponding to the historical target allocations for the asset classes these indexes represent.

All of the underlying funds of the Milestone 2015 Fund produced positive absolute returns in 2012. The five underlying equity funds produced returns ranging from 18.57% for the International Fund to 14.33% for the Equity Income Fund. The Inflation Protected Securities Fund increased 6.84%, Low Duration Bond Fund gained 3.97%, and Core Bond Index Fund (Class I) rose 3.80%. The Diversifying Strategies Fund gained 3.53%.

Within the Fund’s allocation to fixed income funds, the underlying fixed income funds’ investment in higher credit-rating, lower price-volatility securities detracted from relative performance, as lower credit-rating securities generally outperformed higher credit-rating securities. An overweight allocation to equity funds partially offset the underperformance, as the underlying equity funds generally outperformed the underlying fixed income funds.

The Vantagepoint Milestone 2030 Fund gained 13.28% in 2012. The Fund’s market benchmark, the S&P 500 Index, gained 16.00%, while the Fund’s peer group benchmark, the Morningstar Target Date 2026-2030 Funds Average, a group of mutual funds with similar investment objectives, gained 13.59%. The Fund’s custom benchmark gained 13.24%. The Fund’s custom benchmark is composed of the S&P 500 Index and the Barclays U.S. Intermediate Aggregate Bond Index (the Barclays Index), in weighted percentages corresponding to the historical target allocations for the asset classes these indexes represent.

All of the underlying funds of the Milestone 2030 Fund produced positive absolute returns in 2012. The five underlying equity funds produced returns ranging from 18.57% for the International Fund to 14.33% for the Equity Income Fund. The Low Duration Bond Fund gained 3.97% and the Core Bond Index Fund (Class I) rose 3.80%. The Diversifying Strategies Fund gained 3.53%. Please refer to each underlying fund’s commentary within this report for more information.

The Fund’s underperformance relative to its market benchmark, which is an equity benchmark, primarily resulted from its allocation to the underlying fixed income funds and the multi-strategies fund, as these funds generally underperformed the Fund’s market benchmark. Additionally, the Equity Income Fund and the Growth Fund underperformed the Fund’s market benchmark. The Fund’s allocations to the International Fund, Mid/Small Company Index Fund (Class I), and Growth & Income Fund partially offset the underperformance, as these underlying funds outperformed the Fund’s market benchmark.

The Fund’s underperformance relative to its peer group benchmark primarily resulted from the Fund’s underweight allocation, through its underlying funds, to foreign equity securities, as foreign equity securities generally outperformed U.S. equity securities. Within the Fund’s allocation to fixed income funds, the underlying fixed income funds’ investments in higher credit-rating, lower price-volatility securities detracted from relative performance, as lower credit-rating securities generally outperformed higher credit-rating securities. An overweight allocation to equity funds partially offset the underperformance, as the underlying equity funds generally outperformed the underlying fixed income funds. Additionally, through the underlying equity funds, an overweight allocation to value-style equity securities partially offset the underperformance as value-style equity securities generally outperformed growth-style equity securities.

The Fund’s outperformance relative to its custom benchmark primarily resulted from the International Fund, Mid/ Small Company Index Fund (Class I), and Growth & Income Fund outperforming the S&P 500 Index, as well as from both underlying fixed income funds outperforming the Barclays Index. The Fund’s allocations to the Equity Income Fund, Growth Fund, and Diversifying Strategies Fund partially offset this outperformance, as these underlying funds underperformed the respective broad market benchmark in the Fund’s custom benchmark.

Performance

The Vantagepoint Milestone 2040 Fund gained 15.33% in 2012. The Fund’s market benchmark, the S&P 500 Index, gained 16.00%, while the Fund’s peer group benchmark, the Morningstar Target Date 2036-2040 Funds Average, a group of mutual funds with similar investment objectives, gained 14.64%.

The Fund’s custom benchmark is composed of the S&P 500 Index and the MSCI Europe Australasia Far East (EAFE) Index (Net) (the MSCI-EAFE Index), in weighted percentages corresponding to the historical target allocations for the asset classes these indexes represent.

All of the underlying funds of the Milestone 2040 Fund produced positive absolute returns in 2012. The five underlying equity funds produced returns ranging from 18.57% for the International Fund to 14.33% for the Equity Income Fund. The Core Bond Index Fund (Class I) returned 3.80%. The Diversifying Strategies Fund gained 3.53%. Please refer to each underlying fund’s commentary within this report for more information.

The Fund’s outperformance relative to its peer group benchmark primarily resulted from an overweight to the underlying equity funds, as the underlying equity funds generally outperformed the underlying fixed income funds. Additionally, relative performance benefitted from an overweight allocation, through the underlying equity funds, to value-style equity securities, as value-style equity securities generally outperformed growth-style equity securities. This outperformance was partially offset by the Fund’s underweight allocation, through its underlying funds, to foreign equity securities, as foreign equity securities generally outperformed U.S. equity securities. Additionally, within the Fund’s allocation to fixed income funds, the underlying fixed income funds’ investments in higher credit-rating, lower price-volatility securities detracted from relative performance, as lower credit-rating securities generally outperformed higher credit-rating securities.

The Fund’s underperformance relative to its custom benchmark primarily resulted from the Equity Income Fund, Growth Fund, and Diversifying Strategies Fund underperforming the S&P 500 Index. The underperformance was partially offset by the International Fund outperforming the MSCI-EAFE Index, and the Mid/Small Company Index Fund (Class I), Growth & Income Fund, and Core Bond Index Fund (Class I) outperforming the S&P 500 Index.

These financial statements and financial highlights (hereafter referred to as “financial statements”) are the responsibility of the Funds’ management; our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits of these financial statements in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States). Those standards require that we plan and perform the audits to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements, assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, and evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits, which included confirmation of securities at December 31, 2012 by correspondence with the custodian and brokers, and confirmation of the underlying funds by correspondence with the transfer agent, provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

As of December 31, 2012, the Actively Managed, Model Portfolio and Milestone Funds each offered a single class of shares, and the Index Funds offered two classes of shares: Class I Shares and Class II Shares. These two classes of shares differ principally in their respective level of account-based services and the fees associated with such services. Ordinary dividends to shareholders are allocated to each class, based upon shares outstanding on the record date of distribution. Neither class has preferential dividend rights. Differences in per share dividend rates are generally due to differences in separate class expenses. The Vantagepoint Milestone 2050 Fund (the “Milestone 2050 Fund”) commenced operations on September 10, 2012.

The Model Portfolio Funds Structure

As of December 31, 2012, the Model Portfolio Funds invest entirely in other series of the Company (“underlying funds”). Subject to the supervision of the Company’s Board of Directors (“Board”), Vantagepoint Investment Advisers, LLC (“VIA” or the “Adviser”) may make changes to the underlying fund allocations for the Model Portfolios based on its periodic analysis to identify the allocation of assets among the different underlying fund allocations for the Model Portfolio Funds that it believes is appropriate for each Model Portfolio Fund. Each Model Portfolio Fund has a different degree of potential risk and reward and is diversified among various underlying funds in

The Milestone Funds Structure

As of December 31, 2012, the Milestone Funds invest entirely in underlying funds. Subject to the supervision of the Board, VIA may make changes to the underlying fund allocations for the Milestone Funds based on its periodic analysis to identify the allocation of assets among the different underlying funds that it believes is appropriate for each Milestone Fund. Each Milestone Fund invests in a combination of underlying funds that is believed to be appropriate for investors who expect to begin making gradual withdrawals from the Milestone Fund, typically at or after retirement, in or around the year stated in the Milestone Fund’s name, except for the Milestone Retirement Income Fund. VIA adjusts the asset allocation of each “dated” Milestone Fund to become more conservative over time until the Milestone Fund achieves a constant asset allocation approximately ten years after the year designated in its name. The Milestone 2045 and the Milestone 2050 Fund have not yet been adjusted because of their long remaining time horizon. Each Milestone Fund has a different degree of potential risk and reward and is diversified among various

Since the Model Portfolio Funds and Milestone Funds invested entirely in underlying funds during the year ended December 31, 2012 period, investment earnings for this period are composed of:

 

  1. ordinary and capital gain dividends from the underlying funds,

 

  2. unrealized appreciation/depreciation on investments in the underlying funds, and

 

  3. realized gain/loss from sales of the shares of the underlying funds triggered by net outflows associated with normal capital stock activity and rebalancing of the Model Portfolio Funds and Milestone Funds.

Subadviser Changes from January 1, 2012 to December 31, 2012

On January 23, 2012, Atlanta Capital Management Company, LLC and Victory Capital Management, Inc. began managing the assets of the Growth Fund allocated to them. D.G. Capital Management, LLC, Legg Mason Capital Management, LLC and Tukman Grossman Capital Management, Inc. were terminated as subadvisers to the Growth Fund as of the same date. VIA had recommended and the Board had approved these changes at a meeting held on December 13, 2011.

At a meeting held on June 22, 2012, VIA recommended, and the Board approved, the termination of Legg Mason Capital Management, LLC and Wellington Management Company, LLP, and the appointments of SSgA Funds Management, Inc. and Wells Capital Management Inc. as subadvisers to the Aggressive Opportunities Fund. These changes were effective on August 27, 2012.

 

2.   Significant Accounting Policies

The Company’s significant accounting policies are consistently applied in the preparation of its financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”). Management makes estimates and assumptions in the preparation of financial statements that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, including the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements as well as changes in net assets resulting from operations during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates and those differences could be material.

New Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-11 Disclosures about Offsetting Assets and Liabilities (“ASU 2011-11”) requiring disclosure of both gross and net information related to offsetting and related arrangements enabling users of its financial statements to understand the effect of those arrangements on the entity’s financial position. The objective of this disclosure is to facilitate comparison between those entities that prepare their financial statements on the basis of GAAP and those entities that prepare their financial statements on the basis of International Financial Reporting Standards. ASU 2011-11 is effective for interim and annual periods beginning on or after January 1, 2013. Adoption of ASU 2011-11 will have no effect on net assets. At this time, management is evaluating any impact ASU 2011-11 may have on the financial statements disclosures.

Fair Value Measurements

The Board has established procedures for valuing portfolio securities and other assets (the “Valuation Procedures”). Pursuant to the Valuation Procedures, if market quotations are not readily available (or otherwise reliable) for a particular security or other asset, a Fund must use the fair value of the asset, as determined in good faith by the Board (or its appointee). The Valuation Procedures include guidelines for making fair value determinations (the “Guidelines”). The Board has appointed a pricing committee (the “Pricing Committee”) for the purpose of implementing the Guidelines. The Pricing Committee includes representatives from VIA and officers of the Company. When applicable under the Valuation Procedures, the Pricing Committee is authorized to make all necessary determinations of the fair value of portfolio securities and other assets for which market quotations are not readily available (or otherwise reliable), based on the Guidelines, and reports such determinations to the Board.

The types of securities or other assets for which such fair value pricing may be necessary include, but are not limited to: certain foreign securities, securities of an issuer that has entered into a restructuring; securities whose trading has

been halted or suspended; fixed income securities for which there is no current market value quotation; and securities that are restricted as to transfer or resale; and certain derivatives. The need to fair value a Fund’s portfolio securities or other assets may also result from low trading volume in foreign markets or thinly traded domestic securities, such as certain small cap securities. Securities or other assets may also be priced using fair value pricing methods when their closing prices do not reflect their market values at the time a Fund calculates its NAV because an event has occurred since the closing prices were established on the domestic or foreign exchange or market but before the Fund’s NAV calculation.

In making a fair value determination for a given security or asset, the Pricing Committee considers one or more of the following factors regarding the security or other asset, as appropriate: fundamental analytical data relating to the investment in the security; nature and duration of any restriction on the disposition of the security; evaluation of the forces that influence the market in which the security is purchased and sold; type of security or asset; financial statements of issuer; cost at date of purchase; size of holding; discount from market value of unrestricted securities of the same class at the time of purchase; special reports prepared by analysts; information as to any transactions or offers with respect to the security or asset; existence of merger proposals or tender offers affecting the security or asset; price and extent of public trading in similar securities or other instruments of the issuer or comparable companies and other relevant matters; most recent closing market prices; existence of shelf registration for restricted securities; existence of any undertaking to register the security; other acceptable methods of valuing securities or other assets based on: (a) multiple earnings; (b) a discount from market of a similar freely traded security or other instrument; (c) yield to maturity with respect to debt issues; or (d) a combination of these methods; the value of other financial instruments, including derivative securities, traded on other markets or among dealers; trading volumes on markets, exchanges, or among dealers; values of baskets of securities or other instruments traded on other markets, exchanges, or among dealers; changes in interest rates; observations from financial institutions; government (domestic or foreign) actions or pronouncements; other news events and factors; with respect to securities or other instruments traded on foreign markets: (a) the value of foreign securities traded on other foreign markets; (b) ADR trading; (c) closed-end fund trading; (d) foreign currency exchange activity; and (e) the trading prices of financial products that are tied to baskets of foreign securities or other assets; with respect to an emergency or other unusual situation, an evaluation of (a) the nature and duration of the event; (b) the forces influencing the operation of the financial markets; (c) the factors relating to the event that precipitated the problem; (d) whether the event is likely to recur; (e) whether the effects of the event are isolated or whether they affect entire markets, countries, or regions; quotations obtained from one or more broker-dealers of the prices at which they would be willing to buy the security or other asset; and Black-Scholes model for valuing rights, warrants and financial contracts (and similarly structured instruments).

The Pricing Committee reviews its previous fair value determinations on a monthly basis or more frequently as necessary. Fair value processes and controls, and fair value determinations, are subject to review by the Chief Compliance Officer of the Company and by the Board.

Valuing securities or other assets at fair value involves greater reliance on judgment than valuing securities that have readily available (and otherwise reliable) market quotations. There can be no assurance that the Fund could obtain the fair value assigned to a security or instrument if it were to sell the security or other asset at approximately the time at which the Fund determines its NAV per share. As a result, the Fund’s sale or redemption of its shares at NAV, at a time when a holding or holdings are valued at fair value, may have the effect of diluting or increasing the economic interest of existing shareholders.

The Company adopted FASB ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, effective January 1, 2008. In accordance with ASC 820, fair value is defined as the price that the fund would receive upon selling an investment in an orderly transaction to an independent buyer in the principal or most advantageous market for the investment. ASC 820 established a three-tier hierarchy, which maximizes the use of observable market data and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs to establish classification of fair value measurements for disclosure purposes. Inputs refer broadly to the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, including assumptions about risk, for example, the risk inherent in a particular valuation technique used to measure fair value including a pricing model and/or the risk inherent in the inputs to the valuation technique. Inputs may be observable or unobservable.

Observable inputs are inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, developed based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity. Unobservable

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS — (Continued)

 

inputs are inputs that reflect the reporting entity’s own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on the best information available in the circumstances. The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in the three broad levels listed below.

 

Level 1—quoted prices in active markets for identical investments

 

Level 2—other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments in active markets, interest rates and yield curves, prepayment speeds, credit risks, etc.)

 

Level 3—significant unobservable inputs (including the fund’s own assumptions about the assumptions that market participants would use in determining the fair value of investments)

The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Fund’s investments include the probability of default, loss severity in the event of default, increases in market interest rates, downgrades to the issuer’s credit rating, potential for insolvency, government actions or pronouncements, and other financial and non-financial news. Significant changes in any of those inputs in isolation would result in a significantly lower or higher fair value measurement. Generally, a change in the inputs used for fair valuations are accompanied by directionally similar changes in the assumption used for fair valuation determinations.

Investment Policy and Security Valuation

All equity securities that are traded on a national securities exchange (other than NASDAQ Global/Global Select and Capital Market securities traded primarily on the Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc. exchange (“NASDAQ”)) held by each fund normally will be valued at the last reported sale price or official close price (if available) on the exchange on which the security is primarily traded, and are categorized as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy. If, on a particular day, an exchange-traded security does not trade on its primary exchange, then the price normally will be the mean between the closing bid and closing offer reported to the primary exchange and made available to quotation vendors or disseminated through an automated quotation system, or obtained by a pricing service from other quotation sources believed to be reliable and is generally categorized as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. NASDAQ Global/Global Select and Capital Market securities traded primarily on NASDAQ will be valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price (“NOCP”). If, on any given day, no NOCP is available, the price of such securities normally will be the mean between the closing bid and closing offer reported on NASDAQ prior to the calculation of the net asset value (“NAV”) of a fund and are generally categorized as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy. All equity securities not traded on a national securities exchange (“OTC Equities”) normally will be priced at the last reported sale price in the over-the-counter market and are generally categorized as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy. If an OTC Equity does not trade in an over-the-counter market on a particular day, then the price normally will be the mean between the closing bid and closing offer obtained from a quotation service or other source believed to be reliable and is generally categorized as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy. Short-term debt instruments, such as commercial paper, bankers’ acceptances, and U.S. Treasury Bills, with a remaining maturity of less than 60 days may be valued at amortized cost and are generally categorized as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. Prices for debt instruments normally will be obtained from a pricing service. In determining prices, the pricing service may employ methodologies designed to identify the market value of debt instruments, which may include reference to actual market transactions, broker-dealer supplied quotations or valuations, matrix pricing, or other valuation techniques. These techniques generally consider such factors as securities’ prices, yields, maturities, call features, ratings and developments relating to specific securities in arriving at valuations and are generally categorized as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. In the event a pricing service is unable to provide a price for a particular security, the security may be priced based on the average of two or more independent broker-dealer quotations and is generally categorized as Level 2 or Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy. Any security for which market value as described above is not readily available is valued at fair value as determined in good faith in accordance with the Guidelines and is generally categorized as Level 2 or Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy depending on the observability of market inputs. Except for certain foreign equity securities described later in this note, foreign exchange traded securities are valued in the same manner as domestic exchange traded equity securities and are generally categorized as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy.

Shares of the underlying funds in which the Model Portfolio and Milestone Funds invest are valued by using the underlying funds’ current NAVs for purchase and/or redemption orders that day and are categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy.

Valuation of Certain Foreign Equity Securities

For foreign equity securities that are primarily traded in markets outside North and South America, the Board has approved the use of a third party fair valuation service. The service uses a multifactor model to calculate a factor that is then applied to adjust the market price for each such security, which are generally categorized as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. Additionally, the Board has approved the use of the fair value prices provided by this service on a daily basis without a market trigger or confidence interval filter for all foreign equity securities held by the funds that are primarily traded in markets outside North and South America which are generally categorized as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. In the event prices for such foreign securities are not available through the service or another fair value pricing service approved by the Board, the securities may be priced at the average of two or more independent broker-dealer quotations or at the fair value of the security in accordance with the Company’s Valuation Procedures and are generally categorized as Level 2 or Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.

The valuation techniques used by the funds to measure fair value during the year ended December 31, 2012 maximized the use of observable inputs and minimized the use of unobservable inputs. The funds utilized fair value techniques such as a multi-dimensional relational pricing model and option adjusted spread pricing to estimate prices that would have prevailed in a liquid market given information available at the time of evaluation.

The following is a summary of the inputs used as of December 31, 2012, in valuing each fund’s investments carried at value:

When Issued Securities

The funds may purchase securities on a when-issued basis. The purchase price and the interest rate payable, if any, on the securities are fixed on the purchase commitment date or at the time the settlement date is fixed. The value of the securities is subject to market fluctuation beginning on the purchase commitment date. Typically, no income accrues on securities that a fund has committed to purchase prior to the time delivery of the securities is made, although the fund may earn income on securities it has segregated to cover these positions.

To Be Announced (“TBA”) Securities

A TBA is a forward mortgage-backed securities trade. Pass-through securities issued by Freddie Mac, Fannie Mae and Ginnie Mae trade in the TBA market. The term TBA is derived from the fact that the actual mortgage-backed security that will be delivered to fulfill a TBA trade is not designated at the time the trade is made. The securities are “to be announced” 48 hours prior to the established trade settlement date. The fund also relies on the seller to complete the transaction. The seller’s failure to do so may cause the Fund to miss a price or yield considered advantageous to the fund, and a fund bears the risk of loss in the event of the default or bankruptcy of the seller.

Foreign Currency

The accounting records of the funds are maintained in U.S. dollars. Investment securities and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies will be translated (but not actually converted) into U.S. dollars daily at the closing spot rates supplied by the WM/Reuters Intraday Spot exchange rates provided as of 4:00 pm Eastern Time. Purchases and sales of securities, income receipts and expense payments are translated (but not actually

converted) into U.S. dollars at the prevailing exchange rates on the respective dates of such transactions. Unrealized gains and losses, not relating to securities, that result from changes in foreign currency exchange rates, have been included in unrealized appreciation/(depreciation) of securities. Net realized foreign currency gains and losses include foreign currency gains and losses resulting from changes in exchange rates between trade date and settlement date on investment securities transactions, gains and losses on foreign currency transactions, and the difference between the amounts of interest and dividends recorded on the books of the funds and the amounts actually received. The portion of foreign currency gains and losses related to fluctuations in exchange rates between the initial purchase trade date and subsequent sale trade date is included in realized gains/(losses) from security transactions.

Currency symbols utilized throughout the notes to these financial statements are defined as follows:

 

AUD   — Australian Dollar   JPY   — Japanese Yen
BRL   — Brazilian Real   MXN   — Mexican Peso
CAD   — Canadian Dollar   NOK   — Norwegian Krona
CHF   — Swiss Franc   NZD   — New Zealand Dollar
EUR   — European Monetary Unit   SEK   — Swedish Krona
GBP   — British Pound   USD   — U.S. Dollar

Options (other than Swaptions)

Exchange traded options normally will be priced based on the last reported sale price or official closing price (if available) on the exchange on which the option is primarily traded, as provided by a pricing service. If on a particular day, an option does not trade on its primary exchange, the fund’s custodian will calculate and use the mean between the closing bid and closing offer reported to the exchange and obtained from a pricing service and such options are generally categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy.

Purchased options on Euro-Bund futures trade on foreign exchanges and are marked to market daily with variation margin payments received or made by the funds daily based on fluctuation in value. There is no premium paid at the time of purchase. These options are generally categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy.

Non-exchange traded (i.e., over-the-counter) options normally will be priced using an option valuation model, which incorporates relevant parameters (e.g., implied volatility; current value of underlier). Such prices will be provided by a pricing service and these options are generally categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy.

In the event a pricing service is unable to provide a price for a particular option, the option may be priced based on the average of two or more independent broker-dealer quotations, pursuant to the Valuation Procedures, or at its fair value determined in accordance with the Valuation Procedures and is generally categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy.

Futures

Futures contracts normally will be priced at their settlement prices established and reported each day on the exchange on which they are traded, as provided by a pricing service and are generally categorized as Level 1 in the hierarchy. In the event a pricing service is unable to provide a price for a particular futures contract, the value of the contract will be priced at its fair value in accordance with the Valuation Procedures and generally such futures are categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy.

Futures exchange abbreviations utilized throughout the notes to these financial statements are defined as follows:

Forward Currency Contracts

Forward currency contracts normally will be priced using the WM/Reuters Intraday Forwards rates provided as of 4:00 pm Eastern Time. In the event WM/Reuters (or a designated pricing service) is unable to provide a rate for a particular contract, the fair value of the contract will be determined in accordance with the Valuation Procedures and generally such contracts are categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy.

Interest Rate Swaps and Inflation Swaps

Interest rate and inflation swaps normally will be priced based on the applicable swap valuation model (i.e., interest rate or inflation) which incorporates a snapshot of the relevant swap curve (interest rate curve or inflation rate curve, as applicable). Such prices will be provided by a pricing service. In the event a pricing service is unable to provide a price for a particular swap, the swap will be priced at its fair value in accordance with the Valuation Procedures and generally such swaps are categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy.

Interest Rate Swaptions

Interest rate swaptions normally will be priced based on a snapshot taken of the relevant swap curve, deriving an implied volatility surface from actual and/or indicative broker-dealer swaption prices, and combining them in a swaption valuation model. Such prices will be provided by a pricing service. In the event a pricing service is unable to provide a price for a particular swaption, the swaption will be priced at its fair value in accordance with the Valuation Procedures and generally such swaptions are categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy.

Total Return Swaps

Total return swaps are normally priced based on a valuation model that incorporates cash flow forecasts for the reference asset and a snapshot of the relevant interest rate swap curve. Such prices will be provided by a pricing service. In the event a pricing service is unable to provide a price for a particular total return swap, the total return swap will be priced at its fair value in accordance with the Valuation Procedures and generally such swaps are categorized as Level 2 in the hierarchy.

Security Transactions and Income Recognition

Security transactions are accounted for on the date the securities are purchased or sold (trade date). Dividend income is recognized on the ex-dividend date and interest income is accrued daily. Realized gains or losses are reported on the basis of identified cost of securities delivered. Bond discounts and premiums are amortized for both financial reporting and tax purposes, except for the Core Bond Index Fund, which does not amortize bond premium for tax purposes. Paydown gains and losses are recorded as an adjustment to interest income. Inflation adjustments to the principal amount of inflation-indexed bonds are reflected as interest income.

Dividends and Distributions to Shareholders

Dividends received from mutual fund investments are reflected as dividend income; capital gain distributions are reflected as realized gain/(loss). Dividends from net investment income, if any, are declared and paid monthly to shareholders of the Core Bond Index, Low Duration Bond, and Inflation Protected Securities Funds. For the remaining funds, dividends from net investment income, if any, are declared and paid annually to shareholders. Distributions from net realized capital gains, if any, are generally declared and paid annually to shareholders. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from GAAP. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments of income and gains on investment securities, and differing characterizations of distributions being made by each fund.

Certain differences are permanent, and result in reclassifications among paid-in capital, net investment income or realized gains. These may include net operating losses not utilized during the current year, commission adjustments, pay-down gains and losses, bond premium amortization, foreign currency gains and losses, treasury inflation-protected securities adjustments, taxable over-distributions or returns of capital, distribution reclassifications, and adjustments relating to income received from, or dispositions of, swaps, securities with special dividends, or any real estate investment trust, passive foreign investment company, publicly traded partnership, contingent payment debt instruments, and mutual

The following reclassifications were made in the financial statements to present the components of fund net assets and distributions on a tax basis for the year ended December 31, 2012.

Federal Income Taxes

Each fund intends to qualify as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code for federal tax purposes. Accordingly, each fund intends to make distributions of substantially all of its net investment company taxable income and any net realized capital gains (after reduction for capital loss carry forwards) sufficient to relieve it from all, or substantially all, federal income and excise taxes. Any taxable income or gains remaining at fiscal year-end are distributed in the following year. Therefore, no provision for federal income or excise taxes was required.

The FASB issued Interpretation ASC 740, “Income Taxes,” (“ASC 740”) which establishes guidelines for recognizing, measuring, and disclosing tax return positions in financial statements. Management has evaluated the Company’s tax positions and determined that the application of ASC 740 had no material impact on the Company’s financial statements. Accordingly, no adjustments for unrecognized tax benefits or related interest or penalties were required as of December 31, 2012. If applicable, the Company recognizes interest accrued related to unrecognized tax benefits in interest expense and penalties in “Other Expenses” in the Statement of Operations. The Company is not aware of any tax positions for which it is reasonably possible that the total amounts of unrecognized tax benefits will significantly increase or decrease in the next twelve months.

The Regulated Investment Company Modernization Act of 2010 (the “Act”) changed various technical rules governing the tax treatment of regulated investment companies, which are generally effective beginning with the Company’s taxable year ending December 31, 2011. Under the Act, the funds are permitted to carry forward capital losses incurred in taxable years beginning after the enactment date indefinitely. However, any losses incurred during post-enactment taxable years are required to be utilized prior to the losses incurred in pre-enactment taxable years, which expires according to their original schedule. As a result of this ordering rule, pre-enactment capital loss carry forwards may be more likely to expire unused.

Additionally, post-enactment capital loss carryforwards will retain their character as either short-term or long-term capital losses rather than being considered entirely short-term as required under prior law.

At December 31, 2012, the components of distributable earnings on a tax basis were as follows:

Futures Contracts (“Futures”)

A futures contract is an agreement to buy or sell a specific amount of a commodity or financial instrument at a particular price on a stipulated future date.

Certain funds may enter into futures to manage certain risks. These risks may include interest rate risk (the risk that interest rates will rise, causing fixed income securities prices to fall), credit risk (the risk that the issuer of a fixed

income security will default on its obligation to pay interest and/or principal in a timely manner on the instrument), stock market risk (the risk that stock prices overall will decline over short or extended periods), or foreign currency risk (the risk that foreign currency values will decline relative to the U.S. dollar). Certain funds may use futures to seek to increase portfolio value, by increasing or decreasing their exposure to changes in the market value of the specific underlying security, foreign currency, or index.

Futures may be used by the following funds for the following purposes:

Upon entering into the futures contract, the fund agrees to deposit an amount equal to a certain percentage of the contract notional value (initial margin). The fund agrees to subsequently receive or pay an amount of cash equal to the daily fluctuation in the value of the contract. Such receipts or payments are known as “variation margin” and are recorded by the fund as unrealized gains or losses. When the contract is closed, the fund records a realized gain or loss equal to the difference between the value of the contract at the time it was opened and the value at the time it was closed. Realized gains and losses are a component of net realized gain (loss) on futures in the Statement of Operations.

Use of futures may involve risks different from, or possibly greater than, the risks associated with more traditional investments, and may involve a small amount of investment relative to the amount of risk assumed. Risks associated with futures include: the risk that a particular future may be difficult to purchase or sell (liquidity risk); the risk that certain futures may be more sensitive than traditional investments to interest rate changes and market price fluctuations (interest rate and market risks); the risk of mispricing or improper valuation of the future, and the inability of the future to correlate perfectly, or at all, with the value of the underlying asset, reference rate, or index it is designed to closely track (valuation risk); the risk that the fund may lose substantially more than the amount invested and that the fund may be forced to liquidate portfolio positions when it may not be advantageous to do so (leverage risk).

During the year ended December 31, 2012, the following funds purchased and/or sold futures contracts: Low Duration Bond Fund, Inflation Protected Securities Fund, Discovery Fund, Diversifying Strategies Fund, 500 Stock Index Fund, Broad Market Index Fund, Mid/Small Company Index Fund, and Overseas Equity Index Fund.

Forward Currency Contracts

A forward currency contract involves a privately negotiated obligation to purchase or sell a specific currency at a future date at a price set in the contract.

Certain funds may enter into forward currency contracts to manage foreign currency risk. Foreign currency risk is the risk that a fund’s investment in or exposure to foreign currencies or securities denominated in foreign currencies may cause the fund to experience gains or losses solely based on changes in the exchange rate between foreign currencies and the U.S. dollar, or, in the case of hedged positions, the risk that the U.S. dollar will decline relative to the currency being hedged. Currency rates in foreign countries may fluctuate significantly over short periods of time. A decline in the value of foreign currencies relative to the U.S. dollar will reduce the value of securities held by a fund denominated in those currencies. Certain funds also may enter into forward currency contracts to obtain or adjust investment exposure to a foreign currency.

Forward currency contracts may be used by the following funds for the following purposes:

 

Fund

  

Manage Foreign
Currency Risk

   Obtain or Adjust Investment
Exposure to Foreign Currencies

Low Duration Bond

   *    *

Inflation Protected Securities

   *    *

Equity Income

Aggressive Opportunities

   *

   *    *

International

   *    *

Diversifying Strategies

   *    *

Overseas Equity Index

   *   

Risks of entering into forward currency contracts include the possibility that a fund may lose money. For example, foreign currency values may change unfavorably relative to the U.S. dollar, there may be an illiquid market or a change in the value of the contracts may not correlate with changes in the value of the underlying currency. The use of over-the-counter forward currency contracts includes counterparty risk, which is the risk that the other party to a contract may not fulfill its obligations.

The net U.S. dollar value of foreign currency underlying all contractual commitments held by a fund and the resulting unrealized appreciation or depreciation are determined daily using prevailing exchange rates. Realized gain or loss is recorded upon the termination of the contract. Net realized and unrealized gains or losses occurring during the holding period of forward currency contracts are components of net realized gain (loss) on foreign currency transactions and change in net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on forward currency contracts and foreign currency transactions in the Statement of Operations, respectively.

Option Contracts (“Options”)

An option gives the holder the right but not the obligation to enter into a transaction (e.g., the purchase or sale of a security, an index of securities or another instrument, such as a futures contract) with another party on or before a specific date at a specified price (called the strike price). The counterparty is obligated to enter into the transaction if the holder elects to exercise the option. A call option gives the holder the right to purchase the underlying security or instrument from the other party; a put option gives the holder the right to sell the underlying security or instrument to the other party.

Certain funds may enter into options to manage certain risks. These risks may include interest rate risk (the risk that interest rates will rise, causing prices of fixed income securities to fall), credit risk (the risk that the issuer of a fixed income security will default on its obligation to pay interest and/or principal on the instrument in a timely manner), stock market risk (the risk that stock prices overall will decline over short or extended periods), and foreign currency risk (the risk that foreign currency values will decline relative to the U.S. dollar). Some funds also may use options, including options on Euro-Bund futures contracts, to obtain or adjust investment exposure to certain assets, asset classes, or foreign currencies.

Option contracts may be used by the following funds for the following purposes:

Purchases of put and call options are recorded as an investment, the value of which is marked to market at each valuation date. When a purchased option expires, the fund will realize a loss equal to the premium paid. When a fund enters into a closing sale transaction, the fund will realize a gain or loss depending on whether the sales proceeds from the closing sale transaction are greater or less than the cost of the option. When a fund exercises a put option, it will realize a gain or loss from the sale of the underlying security and the proceeds from such sale will be decreased by the premium originally paid. When a fund exercises a call option, the cost of the security that the fund purchases upon

exercise will be increased by the premium originally paid. When a fund writes (sells) a call or put option, an amount equal to the premium received by the fund is recorded as a liability, and the value of each option is marked to market at each valuation date. When a written option expires, the fund realizes a gain equal to the amount of the premium originally received. When a fund enters into a closing purchase transaction, the fund realizes a gain (or loss if the cost of the closing purchase transaction exceeds the premium originally received when the option was sold/written) without regard to any unrealized gain or loss on the underlying security, and the liability related to such option is eliminated. When a written call option is exercised, the fund realizes a gain or loss from the sale of the underlying security and the proceeds from such sale are increased by the amount of the premium originally received. When a written put option is exercised, the amount of the premium originally received will reduce the cost of the security that the fund purchased upon exercise. Option contract transactions may incur a commission, in addition to the premium paid or received. Options written are reported as a liability in a fund’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

Purchased options on Euro-Bund futures are recorded, accounted for and reported in the financial statements very much like futures contracts. There is no premium paid at the time of purchase and they are marked to market daily with variation margin payments received or made by the funds daily based on fluctuation in value and recorded as unrealized gain or loss. At the expiration of the option, the accumulated variation margin received or paid is recorded as realized gain or loss. If the option is exercised, the transaction is recorded as a normal purchase or sale of a futures contract.

A risk in writing (selling) a call option is that the fund gives up the opportunity for profit if the market price of the security increases to or above the strike price and the option is exercised. A risk in writing (selling) a call option on a futures contract, including a Euro-Bund futures contract, is that the fund may incur a loss if the market value of the underlying futures contract increases and the option is exercised. A risk in writing a put option is that the fund may incur a loss if the market price of the security, or futures contract including a Euro-Bund futures contract, decreases and the option is exercised. A risk in buying an option, including an option on a Euro-Bund futures contract, is that the fund pays a premium whether or not the option is exercised. The use of over-the-counter option contracts may also include counterparty risk, which is the risk that the other party to the contract may not fulfill its obligations.

Swap Agreements (“Swaps”)

Swaps are two-party contracts entered into primarily by institutional investors for periods typically ranging from a few weeks to more than one year. In a typical “swap” transaction, two parties agree to exchange the returns (or differentials in rates of return) earned or realized on particular predetermined investments or instruments, such as specified interest rates, a particular foreign currency, or a “basket” of securities or commodities as represented by a particular index. The gross returns to be exchanged or “swapped” between the parties are generally calculated based on the return on or change in value of a “notional amount”, i.e. the predetermined dollar amount on which the dollar amount of gross returns are calculated.

Swap contract provisions and underlying assets are varied and customized to the specifications of the swap parties. Total return swaps are contracts in which one party agrees to make payments to another party based on the change in market value of the assets underlying the contract, which may include a specified security, basket of securities or securities indexes during the specified period, in return for payments based on a fixed or variable interest rate or the total return from other underlying assets. Total return swaps may be used to obtain exposure to a security or market without owning or taking physical custody of such security or investing directly in such market. Credit default swaps are contracts whereby one party makes periodic payments to a counterparty in exchange for the right to receive from the counterparty a payment equal to the par (or other agreed-upon) value of a referenced fixed income security in the event of a default or other agreed upon credit related event by the issuer of the debt obligation. Interest rate swaps involve the exchange by a fund with another party of their respective commitments to pay or receive interest, e.g., an exchange of floating rate payments for fixed rate payments with respect to a notional amount of principal. Inflation rate swaps involve the exchange by a fund with another party of their respective commitments to pay or receive a fixed rate in exchange for the rate of change of an inflation index with respect to a notional amount of principal.

Certain funds may enter into swaps to manage certain risks (e.g. interest rate risk, which is the risk that interest rates will rise, causing prices of fixed income securities to fall, and credit risk, which is the risk that the issuer of a fixed income security will default on its obligation to pay interest and/or principal on the instrument in a timely manner). Some funds also may use swaps to manage foreign currency risk or to obtain or adjust investment exposure to certain assets or asset classes.

The risks of entering into swaps include the possible lack of liquidity and unfavorable changes in the underlying investments or instruments. The use of swaps may also include counterparty risk, which is the risk that the other party to a swap may not fulfill its obligations.

In certain types of swap transactions, the risk of loss is increased because the fund may be required to make additional or higher payments to the counterparty as a result of market volatility. In addition, swaps are not traded on exchanges or other organized markets and are generally illiquid.

Swap value changes, including the periodic amounts of interest to be paid or received on swaps, are recorded as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on swaps. A realized gain or loss is recorded upon receipt or payment of a periodic settlement or termination of a swap. Net realized and unrealized gains and losses occurring during the holding period of swaps are a component of net realized gain (loss) on swaps and change in net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on swaps in the Statement of Operations, respectively.

Swap Options (“Swaptions”)

A swaption is a contract that gives the holder the right (but not the obligation), in return for the payment of a premium, to enter into a new swap agreement, or shorten, extend, cancel or otherwise modify an existing swap agreement, at some designated future time on specified terms.

Certain funds may enter into swaptions to manage certain risks (e.g., interest rate risk, which is the risk that interest rates will rise, causing bond prices to fall, and credit risk, which is the risk that the issuer of a debt instrument will default on its obligation to pay interest and/or principal on the instrument in a timely manner). Some funds also may use swaptions to manage foreign currency risk or to obtain or adjust investment exposure to certain assets or asset classes.

Swaptions may be used by the following funds for the following purposes:

 

     Manage Risk:      Obtain or Adjust Investment Exposure:  

Fund

   Interest Rate Risk      Credit Risk      To Certain Assets or Asset Classes  

Low Duration Bond

Diversifying Strategies

     *         *         *   

Core Bond Index

     *         *         *   

When a fund purchases a swaption, it risks losing the amount of the premium it has paid should it decide to let the option expire unexercised. However, when a fund writes a swaption, upon exercise of the option the fund will become obligated according to the terms of the underlying agreement (i.e., the fund may be required to enter into a new swap agreement, or to shorten, extend, cancel, or otherwise modify an existing swap agreement, even when there has been an unfavorable change in the value of the underlying swap). The use of swaptions includes counterparty risk, which is the risk that the other party to a swaption may not fulfill its obligations.

When a fund writes a call or put swaption, an amount equal to the premium received is recorded as a liability and subsequently marked to market to reflect the current value of the swaption written. These liabilities are reflected as written options at value on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Certain swaptions may be written with premiums to be determined on a future date. Premiums received from writing swaptions that expire are treated as realized gains. Premiums received from writing swaptions that are exercised or closed are added to the proceeds or offset against amounts paid on the underlying swap to determine the realized gain or loss.

Funds may also purchase put and call swaptions. Purchasing put or call swaptions tends to increase the fund’s potential opportunity to benefit from favorable market value changes in the underlying swap without obligating the fund to participate in unfavorable market changes that may occur. The fund pays a premium that is included on the fund’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities as an investment and subsequently marked to market to reflect the current value of the swaption. Premiums paid for purchasing swaptions that expire are treated as realized losses. Certain swaptions may be purchased with premiums to be determined on a future date. The premiums for these swaptions are based upon implied volatility parameters at specified terms. When a fund enters into a closing sale transaction, the fund will realize a gain or loss depending on whether the sales proceeds from the closing sale transaction are greater or less than the cost of the swaption. When a fund exercises a put swaption, it will realize a gain or loss from the underlying swap and the proceeds will be decreased by the premium originally paid. When a fund exercises a call swaption, the cost of the swap that the fund purchases upon exercise will be increased by the premium originally paid. Swaptions written are reported as a liability in a fund’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Gains and losses are reported in a fund’s Statement of Operations.

During the year ended December 31, 2012, the Inflation Protected Securities Fund participated in interest rate swaptions.

Each Subadviser is paid a fee by the funds during the year based on average net assets under management, except that the subadvisory fees for Mellon Capital Management Corporation for the Diversifying Strategies Fund are calculated based on the average net asset value of the fund’s assets allocated and assigned to it by VIA.

Other Subadvisers charge one fee no matter what amount of assets they have under management. Additional information about each Subadviser’s fee is presented in the Company’s prospectus and statement of additional information. Fees paid by each fund to Subadvisers during the year ended December 31, 2012 are presented in the “Additional Information” section of these Notes.

Expenses

The Model Portfolio Funds and Milestone Funds incur fees and expenses indirectly as shareholders in their respective underlying funds. Because the underlying funds have varied expense and fee levels and the Model Portfolio and Milestone Funds may own different proportions of such funds at different times, the amount of fees and expenses indirectly incurred by the Model Portfolio and Milestone Funds will vary.

Fee Waivers

VIA will waive its management fee or reimburse expenses to the extent necessary as a result of any increase in subadvisory fees payable by the Growth Fund that would cause the aggregate management and subadvisory fees of the Growth Fund to exceed 0.54% as a result of subadvisory changes. This commitment will continue until such time as shareholders approve an increase in this limit. For the year ended December 31, 2012, no waiver or reimbursement was required.

From January 4, 2010 through April 30, 2011, from May 1, 2011 through April 30, 2012, and from May 1, 2012 through April 30, 2013, VIA contractually agreed to limit the Milestone 2045 Fund expense ratio to 1.10%. For the year ended December 31, 2012, no waiver or reimbursement was required. From September 10, 2012 through April 30, 2014, VIA contractually agreed to limit the Milestone 2050 Fund expense ratio to 1.10% on the existing share class. For the year ended December 31, 2012, the waiver or reimbursement was $27,847.

T. Rowe Price Associates, Inc. (“T. Rowe Price”) voluntarily waives a portion of its aggregate subadvisory fees for the Growth & Income and Equity Income Funds. These voluntary fee waivers were first implemented on May 1, 2003. The fee for each fund managed by T. Rowe Price is voluntarily reduced by the following percentages, which are determined based on the total amount of assets managed by T. Rowe Price for the Company: a 2.5% waiver on the first $500 million in total assets provided the total amount of assets managed by T. Rowe Price is between $250 and $500 million and a 5% waiver on total assets above $500 million. For the year ended December 31, 2012, the fee waiver for the Growth & Income Fund totaled $46,578 and the fee waiver for the Equity Income Fund totaled $76,853. Effective October 1, 2008, Tukman Grossman Capital Management, Inc. (“Tukman Grossman”) voluntarily agreed to waive a portion of its subadvisory fee in an amount equal to 0.10% of the average daily market value of the assets managed in the Growth Fund. This waiver totaled $17,264 for the year ended December 31, 2012. Effective May 1, 2011, Mellon Capital Management Corporation (“Mellon Capital Management”) agreed to reduce its subadvisory fee through April 30, 2014 so that its fee for the Diversifying Strategies Fund does not exceed 0.325% of the average daily market value of the assets managed in the Diversifying Strategies Fund. This waiver totaled $809,380 for the year ended December 31, 2012.

7.   Portfolio Securities Loaned

Certain funds lend securities to approved borrowers to seek to earn additional income. As of December 31, 2012 certain funds had loaned securities, which were collateralized by cash or other forms of collateral at least equal to the market value of the securities loaned as provided for in the Company’s Securities Lending Agency Agreement with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. The funds receive dividends and interest on the loaned securities and a portion of interest earned on reinvested collateral. All securities loaned are marked to market daily in U.S. dollars and collateral is received and released accordingly on the following day to achieve the required collateralization for the previous day’s market value. The fund may terminate a loan at any time and generally expects to receive the securities loaned within the normal settlement period for the security involved. As with other extensions of credit, there are risks of delay in recovery or even loss of rights in collateral in the event of default or insolvency of the borrower. The fund may not retain voting rights on securities while they are on loan. Voting rights on the loaned securities may pass to the borrower. The funds, however, are entitled to terminate or recall the loans to vote proxies or otherwise obtain rights to vote or consent with respect to a material event.

The funds will be indemnified by its custodian for securities lending programs conducted through the custodian if, at the time of a default by a borrower, some or all of the loaned securities have not been returned by the borrower. The custodian, as soon as practicable after the time of default, shall deposit in the funds’ accounts securities of the same number, issue, type, class and series of the unreturned loaned securities. If the custodian is unable to purchase replacement securities, it will credit to the funds’ accounts an amount equal to the market value of the unreturned loaned securities. For purposes of calculating the amount of credit to a fund’s account, the market value of U.S. securities will be determined as of the date on which the custodian posts the credit to the fund and the market value of the U.S. securities may be more or less than it was on the date the securities were due to be returned to the fund. For non-U.S. securities, the market value of the securities to be credited to a fund is determined as of the date the securities were due to be returned to the fund.

The market value of the securities on loan and the value of the related collateral as of December 31, 2012, were as follows:

9.   Control Persons and Principal Holders of Securities

A majority of the voting shares of each fund are held either directly, or indirectly through the Model Portfolio Funds and the Milestone Funds, by VantageTrust, a group trust sponsored and maintained by VantageTrust Company, LLC (“Trust Company”), 777 N.

11.   Subsequent Events

Management has evaluated events or transactions that may have occurred since December 31, 2012, that would merit recognition or disclosure in the financial statements. Subsequent events occurring after the date of this report have been evaluated for potential impact to this report through the date the financial statements were issued.

Through February 28, 2013, each Fund, other than the Index Funds, only offered a single share class, and the Index Funds only offered two share classes: Class I and Class II Shares. Beginning March 1, 2013, the outstanding shares of the Actively Managed Funds (other than the Diversifying Strategies Fund) will be renamed “Investor Shares,” the outstanding shares of the Model Portfolio Funds and Milestone Funds will be renamed “Investor M Shares,” and the outstanding shares of the Diversifying Strategies Fund will be renamed “T Shares.” In addition, beginning March 1, 2013, the Index Funds and the Actively Managed Funds (other than the Diversifying Strategies Fund) will each offer a new share class, called “T Shares,” and the Model Portfolio Funds and Milestone Funds will each offer a new share class, called “TM Shares.” More information about these changes is described in the Company’s prospectus.

In addition, on January 18, 2013, VIA recommended and the Board approved the liquidation and termination of the Model Portfolio Savings Oriented Fund as being in the best interests of its shareholders. This liquidation and termination will occur on March 22, 2013.

Mses. McCallen, Glista, Montez, and McGrath and Mr. Rohrbacher are considered to be “interested persons” of the VP Funds, as that term is defined under the 1940 Act, due to their positions as officers of the following entities: VIA, RC Services, ICMA-RC, and VantageTrust Company.

Vantagepoint Milestone 2050 Fund

At a meeting held on June 22, 2012 (“June Meeting”), the Board, including a majority of the Independent Directors, initially approved the Second Master Investment Advisory Agreement (“Master Agreement”) between the Company and VIA for the Milestone 2050 Fund, a new series of the Company that commenced operations on September 10, 2012. Before approving the Master Agreement, the Board considered the recommendations of, and supporting analyses and data presented by, VIA.

With respect to the Board’s initial approval of the Master Agreement between the Company and VIA for the Milestone 2050 Fund, the Directors received written information in advance of the June Meeting, including information regarding: (1) the nature, quality and extent of the services to be provided by VIA; (2) the level of investment advisory fees to be charged by VIA and the fees charged by VIA to each of the other eight series of the Company with a target-date designated in its name (“Dated Milestone Fund Series”); (3) VIA’s experience as investment adviser to the other series of the Company and with respect to the investment strategies to be employed by the Milestone 2050 Fund; (4) the Milestone 2050 Fund’s overall investment advisory fee and expected total expense ratio compared to a group of investment companies categorized by Morningstar as 2046-2050 target-date funds (“Milestone 2050 peer group”); and (5) the expected costs of the services to be provided and net margins (“profit margin”) to be realized by VIA and its affiliates from its relationship with the Milestone 2050 Fund.

In considering the information and materials described above, the Independent Directors received assistance from, and met separately with, their independent legal counsel and were provided with a written description of their statutory responsibilities and the legal standards that are applicable to approvals of advisory agreements. In determining to approve the Master Agreement with VIA for the Milestone 2050 Fund, the Directors considered the information received in advance of the June Meeting, the presentations made by, and discussions held with, VIA’s personnel prior to the June Meeting and at the June Meeting, as well as a variety of factors. In view of the scope and variety of factors and information, the Directors did not find it practicable to, and did not, assign relative weights to the specific factors considered in reaching their conclusion and determination to approve the Master Agreement. Rather, the approval determination was made on the basis of each Director’s business judgment after consideration of all of the factors taken in their entirety. Although not meant to be all-inclusive, the following discusses some of the factors relevant to the Board’s decision to approve the Master Agreement with VIA relating to the Milestone 2050 Fund.

Nature, Extent and Quality of Services. With respect to the nature, extent and quality of the services expected to be provided by VIA to the Milestone 2050 Fund under the Master Agreement, the Directors considered the specific investment services to be provided, including the development of customized age and time appropriate asset allocations both initially and over time, the monitoring of the underlying funds’ performance and the monitoring of aging (glide) paths and underlying fund allocations, by VIA in managing the assets of the Milestone 2050 Fund. They also considered the experience of VIA’s investment staff with regard to managing the Dated Milestone Fund Series. The Directors concluded that the nature, extent and quality of the investment advisory services expected to be provided by VIA were appropriate for the Milestone 2050 Fund in light of its investment objective and strategies and, thus, supported a decision to approve the Master Agreement with VIA relating to the Milestone 2050 Fund.

Investment Performance. At the time of the Board’s consideration of the Master Agreement, the Milestone 2050 Fund had not commenced operations and, therefore, there was no information for the Directors to evaluate regarding the Milestone 2050 Fund’s actual performance.

Advisory Fee, Expense Ratio and Economies of Scale. The Directors considered a comparison of the fee to be charged by VIA to the Milestone 2050 Fund with the fee VIA charges to the other Dated Milestone Fund Series. The Directors considered that the proposed fee for the Milestone 2050 Fund is the same as the fee for the Dated Milestone Fund Series; and the type of services VIA would provide to the Milestone 2050 Fund is comparable to the services currently provided by VIA to the Dated Milestone Fund Series. The Directors also considered comparative data provided by VIA on the advisory fees of the Milestone 2050 peer group. The information provided by VIA showed that the proposed investment advisory fee rate for the Milestone 2050 Fund would be lower than the average and at the median investment advisory fee of the Milestone 2050 peer group. The Directors also considered the comparative data provided by VIA with respect to the expected total expense ratio of the Milestone 2050 Fund as compared to the

Additional Information (Unaudited) — (Continued)

 

expense ratios of the Milestone 2050 peer group and further noted VIA’s proposed agreement to limit the total operating expenses of the Milestone 2050 Fund until April 30, 2014. The foregoing comparisons assisted the Directors in considering the Master Agreement relating to the Milestone 2050 Fund by providing them with a basis for evaluating the investment advisory fee to be paid to VIA and the Milestone 2050 Fund’s expected total expense ratio on a relative basis. Based on this information, the Directors concluded that the investment advisory fee appeared to be within a reasonable range for the services to be provided.

With respect to the expected costs and profit margins to be realized by VIA (and its affiliates) from its relationship with the Milestone 2050 Fund, the Directors considered the information provided by VIA, which stated that VIA expected to experience similar costs and margins as for the other Dated Milestone Fund Series once the Milestone 2050 Fund achieves a similar asset size. Based on this information, the Directors concluded that VIA may not realize economies of scale with regard to the Milestone 2050 Fund for some period of time and that the proposed fee is appropriate at this time.

Other Considerations. The Directors also considered the potential “fall-out” or ancillary benefits that may accrue to VIA due to its relationship with the Milestone 2050 Fund and that VIA does not expect any direct “fall-out” benefits by virtue of its relationship with the Milestone 2050 Fund. VIA indicated, however, that it may benefit from the enhancement to the set of the Vantagepoint Milestone Funds as the Milestone 2050 Fund may appeal to sponsors of governmental deferred compensation plans.

Conclusion. After full consideration of the foregoing factors, with no single factor identified as being of paramount importance, the Directors, including a majority of the Independent Directors, concluded that the initial approval of the Master Agreement with VIA relating to the Milestone 2050 Fund was in the best interests of the Milestone 2050 Fund and its shareholders, and approved the Master Agreement with, and the fee to be paid to, VIA.
