(a) The maximum potential amount the Fund could be required to pay as a seller of credit protection or receive as a buyer of credit protection if a credit event occurs as defined under the terms of that particular swap agreement.
(b) Implied credit spreads, represented in absolute terms, are utilized in determining the value of credit default swap agreements on sovereign issues of an emerging country as of period end, and serve as an indicator of the current status of the payment/performance risk and represent the likelihood or risk of default for the credit derivative. The implied credit spread of a particular referenced entity reflects the cost of buying/selling protection and may include upfront payments required to be made to enter into the agreement. Wider credit spreads represent a deterioration of the referenced entity’s credit soundness and a greater likelihood or risk of default or other credit event occurring as defined under the terms of the agreement.
(c) Based on an index of North American bonds with investment grade credit ratings that trade in the credit default swap market.

The implied credit spread of a particular referenced entity reflects the cost of buying/selling protection and may include upfront payments required to be made to enter into the agreement.

Security Valuation
The Board of Directors of Empower Funds (the "Board") has adopted policies and procedures for the valuation of each Fund's securities and assets, and has appointed the Fair Value Pricing Committee of the Funds' investment adviser,  Empower Capital Management, LLC ("ECM"), to complete valuation determinations under those policies and procedures.  Pursuant to Rule 2a-5 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, the Board approved ECM as the Funds' valuation designee to make all fair value determinations with respect to the Funds' investments, subject to oversight by the Board.
Each Fund generally values its securities, including Exchange Traded Funds, based on market prices determined at the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") on each day the NYSE is open for trading. The net asset value ("NAV") of each class of a Fund’s shares is determined by dividing the net assets attributable to each class of shares of the Fund by the number of issued and outstanding shares of each class of the Fund on each valuation date.
For securities that are traded on only one exchange, the last sale price as of the close of business of that exchange will be used.  If the closing price is not available, the current bid as of the close of business will be used.  For securities traded on more than one exchange, or upon one or more exchanges and in the OTC market, the last sale price as of the close of business on the market which the security is traded most extensively will be used.  If the closing price is not available, the current bid as of the close of business will be used.  For securities that principally trade on the NASDAQ National Market System, the NASDAQ official closing price will be used.
For private equity securities that are not traded on an exchange, an appropriate source, which may include the use of an internally developed or approved valuation model, a different external pricing vendor, or sourcing a price from a broker will be used. Valuation of these securities will be reviewed regularly by the Fair Value Pricing Committee.
Short term securities purchased with less than 60 days remaining until maturity and all U.S. Treasury Bills are valued on the basis of amortized cost, which has been determined to approximate fair value.  Short term securities purchased with more than 60 days remaining until maturity are valued using pricing services, or in the event a price is not available from a pricing service, may be priced using other methodologies approved by the Board, including model pricing or pricing on the basis of quotations from brokers or dealers, and will continue to be priced until final maturity.
Fixed income investments, including bank loans, are valued using evaluated bid prices from approved pricing services when available and appropriate based on the conditions of the market. If a price cannot be located from either the primary or secondary sources, or if the market is determined to be illiquid or inactive, other appropriate sources, which may include the use of an internally developed valuation model, another external pricing vendor or sourcing a price from a broker, may be used.
Investments in shares of the underlying mutual funds are valued at the net asset value as reported by the underlying mutual fund, which may be obtained from pricing services or other pricing sources.
Foreign equity securities are generally valued using an adjusted systematic fair value price from an independent pricing service. Foreign exchange rates are determined at a time that corresponds to the closing of the NYSE.
For derivatives that are traded on an exchange, the last sale price as of the close of business of the exchange will be used.  For derivatives traded OTC, independent pricing services will be utilized when possible.  If a price cannot be located from the primary source, other appropriate sources, which may include the use of an internally developed valuation model, another external pricing vendor or sourcing a price from a broker, may be used.
Independent pricing services are approved by the Board and are utilized for all investment types when available.  In some instances valuations from independent pricing services are not available or do not reflect events in the market between the time the market closed and the valuation time and therefore fair valuation procedures are implemented. The fair value for some securities may be obtained from pricing services or other pricing sources.  The inputs used by the pricing services are

reviewed quarterly or when the pricing vendor issues updates to its pricing methodologies. Broker quotes are analyzed through an internal review process, which includes a review of known market conditions and other relevant data. Developments that might trigger fair value pricing could be natural disasters, government actions or fluctuations in domestic and foreign markets.
The following table provides examples of the inputs that are commonly used for valuing particular classes of securities.  These classifications are not exclusive, and any inputs may be used to value any other security class.

The Funds classify their valuations into three levels based upon the observability of inputs to the valuation of each Fund’s investments. The valuation levels are not necessarily an indication of the risk or liquidity associated with the underlying investment. Classification is based on the lowest level of input significant to the fair value measurement. The three levels are defined as follows:
Level 1 – Unadjusted quoted prices for identical securities in active markets.
Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable either directly or indirectly.  These may include quoted prices for similar assets in active markets.
Level 3 – Unobservable inputs to the extent observable inputs are not available and may include prices obtained from single broker quotes.  Unobservable inputs reflect a Fund’s own assumptions and would be based on the best information available under the circumstances.
As of March 31, 2025, the inputs used to value the Empower High Yield Bond Fund and the Empower Multi-Sector Bond Fund investments are detailed in the following tables. More information regarding the sector classifications, as applicable, are included in the Schedule of Investments. For the remaining Funds, all the investments were valued using Level 2 inputs,except for Futures contracts and Government Money Market Mutual Funds, which were valued using Level 1 inputs.

To Be Announced Transactions
A Fund may invest in securities known as To Be Announced ("TBA") securities. TBAs are Federal National Mortgage Association, Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation or Government National Mortgage Association issued mortgage backed securities for forward settlement, in which the buyer and seller decide on trade parameters, but the exact pools are unknown until two days before settlement date.  The transactions arise when securities are purchased or sold with payment and delivery taking place in the future in order to secure what is considered to be an advantageous price and yield at the time of entering into the transaction. TBA transactions generally settle monthly on a specified date.

March 31, 2025

 

Dollar Rolls
A Fund may sell TBA mortgage-backed securities and simultaneously contract to repurchase TBA mortgage-backed securities on a specific future date at an agreed upon price. During the period between the sale and repurchase, a Fund is not entitled to receive interest and principal payments on the securities sold. Mortgage dollar roll transactions are treated as purchases and sales and realize gains and losses on these transactions. Mortgage dollar rolls involve the risk that the market value of the securities that a Fund is required to purchase may decline below the agreed upon repurchase price of those securities.
Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities
For Treasury Inflation-Protected Securities ("TIPS") the principal amount is adjusted daily to keep pace with inflation. Interest is accrued based on the adjusted principal amount.
Options and Swaptions
A Fund may buy and sell put and call options, or write put and call options in order to increase, decrease, or change the level or types of exposure to market risk factors. When an option is purchased, a Fund is entitled to buy and sell a specified number of shares or units of a particular security, currency, or index at a specified price at a specified date or within a specified period of time. When an option is written, a Fund receives a premium and becomes obligated to sell or purchase the underlying security, currency or other underlying financial instrument at a fixed price, upon exercise of the option. A purchased call or written put option becomes more valuable as the price of the underlying financial instrument appreciates relative to the strike price. A purchased put or written call option becomes more valuable as the price of the underlying financial instrument depreciates relative to the strike price. Options can be an OTC transaction or may be executed on a registered exchange and cleared through a clearing-house associated with the exchange. The use of options may involve risks such as a Fund paying a premium without the option being exercised, or that the clearinghouse will fail to perform its obligations. The risk in writing a call option is the market price of the underlying security increasing above the strike price and the option being exercised. The risk in writing a put option is the market price of the underlying security decreasing below the strike price and the option being exercised. When writing options, a Fund has the additional risk that there may be an illiquid market where the Fund is unable to close the contact. The risk in buying an option is that a Fund pays a premium for the option, and the option may be worth less than the premium paid or expire worthless.
Purchased options, if any, are reported in the Schedule of Investments. Written options, if any, are disclosed in a table following the Schedule of Investments. Upon purchasing a put or call option for a premium, the premium paid is recorded as an investment and its value is marked-to-market daily. When a Fund writes an option, the premium received is recorded as a liability and is subsequently adjusted to the current market value of the option written.
Purchased and written swaptions, if any, are disclosed in a table following the Schedule of Investments. Upon purchasing a put or call swaption for a premium, the premium paid is recorded as an investment and its value is marked-to-market daily. When a Fund writes a swaption, the premium received is recorded as a liability and is subsequently adjusted to the current market value of the option written.
Futures Contracts
A Fund may use futures contracts in order to capitalize on expected changes in the shape of the yield curve and to control overall interest rate exposure.  A futures contract is an agreement between two parties to buy or sell a specified underlying investment for a fixed price at a specified future date. Futures contracts are generally entered into on a regulated futures exchange and cleared through a clearinghouse associated with the exchange.  The use of futures contracts may involve risks such as the possibility of illiquid markets or imperfect correlation between the value of the contracts and the underlying securities that comprise the index, or that the clearinghouse will fail to perform its obligations.
Forward Foreign Currency Contracts
A Fund may enter into OTC forward foreign currency contracts ("forward contracts") primarily to capture potential returns from changes in currency exchange rates or to reduce the risk of undesired currency exposure.  A forward contract is a commitment to purchase or sell a foreign currency at a future date at a negotiated rate.

Credit Default Swaps 
A Fund may enter into credit default swap contracts in order to gain exposure on individual names and/or baskets of securities. A credit default swap is an agreement between a Fund and a counterparty that enables the Fund to buy or sell protection against a credit event related to a particular issuer. One party, acting as a protection buyer, makes periodic payments to the other party, a protection seller, in exchange for a promise by the protection seller to make a payment to the protection buyer if a negative credit event (such as a delinquent payment or default) occurs with respect to a referenced bond or group of bonds. Credit default swaps may also be structured based on the debt of a basket of issuers, rather than a single issuer, and may be customized with respect to the number of defaults event that triggers purchase or other factors (for example, the Nth default within a basket, or defaults by a particular combination of issuers within the basket, may trigger a payment obligation). These agreements may be privately negotiated in the OTC market (OTC credit default swaps) or may be executed on a registered exchange (centrally cleared credit default swaps).
Credit default swaps may involve greater risks than if a Fund had invested in the referenced obligation directly.
Interest Rate Swaps
A Fund may enter into interest rate swap contracts primarily to manage interest rate risk. An interest rate swap is an agreement between two parties to exchange interest rate payment obligations. Typically, one is based on an interest rate fixed to maturity while the other is based on an interest rate that changes in accordance with changes in a designated benchmark (for example, the SOFR, prime rate, commercial paper rate, or other benchmarks). Each party’s payment obligation under an interest rate swap is determined by reference to a specified notional amount of money. Therefore, interest rate swaps generally do not involve the delivery of securities, other underlying instruments, or principal amounts; rather they entail the exchange of cash payments based on the application of the designated interest rates to the notional amount. These agreements may be privately negotiated in the OTC market (OTC interest rate swaps) or may be executed on a registered exchange (centrally cleared interest rate swaps).
A Fund may enter into interest rate swaps in which it either pays or receives a fixed interest rate and pays or receives a floating interest rate.  Barring swap counterparty default, the risk of loss in an interest rate swap is limited to the net amount of interest payments that a Fund is obligated to make or receive (as applicable), as well as any early termination payment payable by or to the Fund upon early termination of the swap.
Inflation Swaps
A Fund may enter into inflation swap contracts in order to gain exposure to inflation (inflation risk). An inflation swap is a contract in which one party agrees to pay the cumulative percentage increase in a price index (such as the Consumer Price Index ("CPI") with respect to CPI swaps) over the term of the swap (with some lag on the inflation index), and the other pays a compounded fixed rate. Inflation swaps may be used to protect the value of securities against an unexpected change in the rate of inflation measured by an inflation index since the value of these agreements is expected to increase if there are unexpected inflation increases. These agreements may be privately negotiated in the OTC market (OTC inflation swaps) or may be executed on a registered exchange (centrally cleared inflation swaps).
Total Return Swap
A Fund may enter into total return swaps in order to gain exposure to a security or market without owning such security or investing directly in such market or to exchange the risk/return of one security or market with another security or market. Total return swaps are agreements in which there is an exchange of cash flows whereby one party commits to make payments based on the total return of an underlying instrument, or basket of underlying instruments, in exchange for interest payments.
To the extent that the total return of the security, index or other financial measure underlying the transaction exceeds or falls short of the offsetting interest rate obligation, a Fund will receive a payment from or make a payment to the counterparty. OTC and/or centrally cleared total return swap contracts are marked to market daily based upon quotations from an independent pricing service or market maker. Payments received or made are recorded as realized gains or losses. Certain OTC and/or centrally cleared total return swap contracts may include extended effective dates. Payments related to these swap contracts are accrued based on the terms of the contract. A Fund could be exposed to credit or market risk due to unfavorable changes in the fluctuation of interest rates or in the price of the underlying security or index, the possibility that there is no liquid market for these agreements or that the counterparty may default on its obligation to perform. A Fund's maximum risk of loss from counterparty risk or central clearing risk is the fair value of the contract. This risk may be mitigated for OTC total return swap

contracts by having a master netting arrangement between a Fund and the counterparty and for centrally cleared total return swap contracts through the daily exchange of variation margin. There is minimal counterparty risk with respect to centrally cleared total return swap contracts due to the clearinghouse guarantee fund and other resources that are available in the event of a clearing member default.
