Dear Eligible Employee:

Financial planning professionals suggest that when you retire, you will need to replace 85% of pre-retirement income in order to maintain your standard of living. How will you fund your retirement?

The NTCA Savings Plan can be a great way to invest for your retirement. As an employee eligible to participate in the plan, you have access to:

• Online account management tools to help you manage your assets as you plan for retirement.

• A variety of investment options, making it easier for you to develop a well-diversified investment portfolio.

• Immediate tax savings: Your pretax contributions are deducted from your pay before income taxes are taken out. This means that you can actually lower the amount of income tax withheld each payroll period.

To get started, review the information in this guide. Complete the forms included in the rear of the guide and forward them to your HR or benefits manager. If you have already completed and returned the forms enclosed at the back of this guide, you do not need to fill them out again. Once your retirement account is established, you can select your investment options by calling 1-888-682-2352. Alternatively, you can access your account online at www.netbenefits.com/NTCA.

We hope the investment options and other resources offered through the plan will encourage you to take full advantage of your NTCA Savings Plan and help you secure a more comfortable retirement.

Sincerely,

Shirley Bloomfield, Chief Executive Officer NTCA–The Rural Broadband Association

30 Town Square Boulevard, Suite 300 • Asheville, NC 28803 Phone/828-252-9776 • Fax/828-255-9510 • www.ntca.org

Investment OptionsBefore investing in any mutual fund, consider the investment objectives,risks, charges, and expenses. Contact Fidelity for a mutual fundprospectus or, if available, a summary prospectus containing thisinformation. Read it carefully.

BlackRock International Index Fund

VRS Code: 896023

Fund Objective: The Fund is an "index fund" that seeks investment results that correspond generally to the price and yieldperformance, before fees and expenses, of a particular index (its "Underlying Index").

Fund Strategy: The Fund is a collective investment trust maintained and managed by BlackRock Institutional Trust Company,N.A. ("BTC"). The Fund shall be invested and reinvested in a portfolio or portfolios of international equity securities whosetotal rates of return will approximate the capitalization weighted total rates of return of the markets in certain countries forequity securities, including securities traded in the United States of America and Canada. The primary criterion for selection ofinvestments in the Fund shall be the MSCI World ex-U.S. IndexSM Free. BTC uses a "passive" or indexing approach to try toachieve the Fund’s investment objective. Unlike many funds, the Fund does not try to outperform the index it seeks to trackand does not seek temporary defensive positions when markets decline or appear overvalued. BTC uses a replication indexing strategy to manage the Fund. "Replication" is an indexing strategy in which the Fundgenerally invests in substantially all of the securities in its Underlying Index in approximately the same proportions as in theUnderlying Index. The Fund may invest through one or a series of collective investment trusts managed and trusteed by BTC. When deemed appropriate by BTC and unless otherwise provided in the Fund’s investment strategies, BTC may invest all orany portion of the Fund in one or more futures contracts, forward contracts or other similar assets for the purpose of acting as atemporary substitute for investment in securities. In the event of a conflict between this summary description of the Fund’s investment objective and principal investmentstrategies and the Trust Document under which the Fund was established, the Trust Document will govern. For moreinformation related to the Fund, please see the Fund’s Trust Document, Profile and most recent audited financial statements.

Fund Risk: Any of the principal risks summarized below may adversely affect the Fund’s net asset value, performance, andability to meet its investment objective. An investment in the Fund is not a bank deposit, is not guaranteed by BlackRock, Inc.or any of its affiliates, and is not insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other agency of the U.S.government. Underlying Fund Risk. The investment objective and strategies of a collective investment trust in which the Fund invests(’Underlying Fund’) may differ from the Fund, and there is no assurance that an Underlying Fund will achieve its objective. Equity Securities Risk. Equity securities are subject to changes in value that may be more volatile than other asset classes. Foreign Investment Risk. The Fund may suffer losses due to political, legal, economic and geographic events affecting a non-U.S. issuer or market. Foreign government issuers may be unable or unwilling to repay principal or interest when due, and theprices of these securities may be more volatile than those issued by corporations or other governments. Securities of non-U.S.issuers denominated in non-U.S. currencies will expose the Fund to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange prices. Securities Lending Risk. The Fund may engage in securities lending. Securities lending involves the risk that the Fund maylose money because the borrower of the Fund’s securities fails to return the securities in a timely manner or at all or in theevent of a decline in the value of the collateral provided for loaned securities or a decline in the value of any investments madewith cash collateral. Derivatives Risk. Investments in derivatives (such as futures contracts, forward contracts, swaps and options) may reduce theFund’s returns and/or increase volatility. Fluctuations in the values of derivatives may not correlate perfectly with the overallsecurities markets. Derivatives are also subject to the risk that the other party in the transaction will not fulfill its contractualobligation. The possible lack of a liquid secondary market for derivatives could expose the Fund to losses. Small-Capitalization Companies Risk. Compared to mid- and large-capitalization companies, small-capitalization companiesmay be less stable and their securities may be more volatile and less liquid. Mid-Capitalization Companies Risk. Compared to large-capitalization companies, mid-capitalization companies may be lessstable and more susceptible to adverse developments and their securities may be more volatile and less liquid.

Fund short term trading fees: None

Who may want to invest:● Someone who is seeking to complement a portfolio of domestic investments with international investments, which can

behave differently.

● Someone who is willing to accept the higher degree of risk associated with investing overseas.

Stable Value Fund

VRS Code: 098485

Fund Objective: The fund seeks to preserve your principal investment while earning a level of interest income that isconsistent with principal preservation. The fund seeks to maintain a stable net asset value (NAV) of $1 per share, but it cannotguarantee that it will be able to do so. The yield of the fund will fluctuate.

Fund Strategy: The fund invests in benefit-responsive investment contracts issued by insurance companies and other financialinstitutions ("Contracts"), fixed income securities, and money market funds. Under the terms of the Contracts, the assets of thefund are invested in fixed income securities (which may include, but are not limited to, U.S. Treasury and agency bonds,corporate bonds, mortgage-backed securities, commercial mortgage-backed securities, asset-backed securities, and collectiveinvestment vehicles and shares of investment companies that invest primarily in fixed income securities) and shares of moneymarket funds. At the time of purchase, all Contracts and securities purchased for the fund must satisfy the credit qualitystandards specified in the fund’s investment guidelines.

Fund Risk: The Contracts and securities purchased for the fund are backed solely by the financial resources of the issuers ofsuch Contracts and securities. An investment in the fund is not insured or guaranteed by the manager(s), the plan sponsor, thetrustee, the FDIC, or any other government agency. The Contracts purchased by the fund permit the fund to account for thefixed income securities at book value (principal plus interest accrued to date). Through the use of book value accounting, thereis no immediate recognition of investment gains and losses on the fund’s securities. Instead, gains and losses are recognizedover time by periodically adjusting the interest rate credited to the fund under the Contracts. However, while the fund seeks topreserve your principal investment, it is possible to lose money by investing in this fund. The Contracts provide for the paymentof certain withdrawals and exchanges at book value during the terms of the Contracts. In order to maintain the Contractissuers’ promise to pay such withdrawals and exchanges at book value, the Contracts subject the fund and its participants tocertain restrictions. For example, withdrawals prompted by certain events (e.g., layoffs, early retirement windows, spin-offs, saleof a division, facility closings, plan terminations, partial plan terminations, changes in laws or regulations) may be paid at themarket value of the fund’s securities, which may be less than your book value balance.Certain investment options offered by your plan (e.g., money market funds, short term bond funds, certain asset allocation/lifecycle funds and brokerage window) may be deemed by the Contract issuers to "compete" with this fund. The terms of theContracts prohibit you from making a direct exchange from this fund to such competing funds. Instead, you must firstexchange to a non-competing fund for 90 days. While these requirements may seem restrictive, they are imposed by theContract issuers as a condition for the issuer’s promise to pay certain withdrawals and exchanges at book value.

Fund Risk: In general the bond market is volatile, and fixed income securities carry interest rate risk. (As interest rates rise,bond prices usually fall, and vice versa. This effect is usually more pronounced for longer-term securities.) Fixed incomesecurities also carry inflation risk and credit and default risks for both issuers and counterparties. Unlike individual bonds, mostbond funds do not have a maturity date, so avoiding losses caused by price volatility by holding them until maturity is notpossible. Additional risk information for this product may be found in the prospectus or other product materials, if available.

Glossary of Terms

Pre-Tax 401(k) Contribution refers to the amount which is deducted from your pay before income taxes are calculated. By making pre-tax contributions to the plan, you may reduce your annual federal income tax liability.

For example, if your annual compensation is $30,000, and you contribute $3,000 on a pre-tax basis, your federal taxable income would be reduced to $27,000. Even though you are not taxed on the money during the contri-bution year, distributions are generally fully taxable at your normal income tax rate when the money is with-drawn. If you are under age 59½, the IRS may assess an additional 10% early withdrawal penalty *.

Roth 401(k) Contribution refers to the amount which is deducted from your pay after income taxes are calculat-ed. Roth contributions do not reduce your taxable income in the year made. However, Roth 401(k) contributions and accumulated earnings are not subject to federal income tax when distributed if the distribution is a “quali-fied distribution”. A qualified distribution is one that is:

(1) Made after the account owner has attained age 59 ½, or due to his or her death or disability AND (2) The distribution occurs 5 years after the first Roth contribution is made.

If these qualifications are not met, the earnings would generally be subject to federal income tax and the IRS may assess an additional 10% early withdrawal penalty on the taxable portion of the distribution*.

After-Tax Contribution refers to the amount which is deducted from your paycheck after income taxes are calculated. After-tax contributions do not reduce your federal taxable income in the year made.

After-tax contributions are not subject to federal income tax when withdrawn. However, all earnings are gener-ally subject to federal income tax. If you are under age 59 ½ at the time of the distribution, the IRS may assess an additional 10% early withdrawal penalty on the taxable portion of the distribution *.

*If you separate service from your employer on or after attaining age 55, distributions from the Savings Plan may be exempt from the 10% early withdrawal penalty.
