PROPOSAL 1

ELECT TRUSTEES FOR ALL TRUSTS

This Proposal applies to the following Trusts:

 

  1.

Elfun Diversified Fund;

 

  2.

Elfun Government Money Market Fund;

 

  3.

Elfun Income Fund;

 

  4.

Elfun International Equity Fund;

 

  5.

State Street Master Funds;

 

  10.

State Street Navigator Securities Lending Trust;

 

  11.

State Street Institutional Funds; and

 

  12.

State Street Variable Insurance Series Funds, Inc.

We are asking shareholders of each Trust to elect six (6) Nominees as members of the Board of Trustees of that Trust, which Nominees, if elected, would serve on the Board of each Trust. In connection with the election of the Nominees, two current Trustees of the Trusts—Michael Jessee and John R. Costantino—are scheduled to retire.

Who are the Nominees to the Board?

The Board of Trustees of each Trust has nominated six (6) Nominees for election as Trustees of each Trust.

Five of the Nominees, Patrick J. Riley, Donna M. Rapaccioli, Margaret K. McLaughlin, George M. Pereira, and Mark E. Swanson, are independent, meaning that each is not an “interested person,” as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), of any Trust (each such individual is commonly referred to as an “Independent Trustee” and, collectively, as “Independent Trustees”). Each of these five Nominees currently serves on the Board of each Trust. One of the Nominees, Jeanna LaPorta, is an “interested person,” as defined in the 1940 Act (“Interested Trustee”) of the Trusts and does not currently serve on any of the Boards.

If the Proposal is approved with respect to each Nominee, each Board would consist of six (6) Trustees upon the scheduled retirement of Messrs. Jessee and Costantino effective December 31, 2024. Two of the Nominees—Ms. Rapaccioli and Mr. Riley—currently serve on these Boards after their election by the shareholders in past years and would continue to serve as Trustees after their election by shareholders (and variable contract holders). Three of the Nominees—Ms. McLaughlin and Messrs. Pereira and Swanson—currently serve on these Boards by appointment of the Trustees in between shareholder meetings and would continue to serve as Trustees after their election by shareholders (and variable contract holders). One of the Nominees—Ms. LaPorta—does not currently serve on any of these Boards and would serve as Trustee after her election by shareholders and upon the scheduled retirement of Messrs. Jessee and Costantino effective December 31, 2024.

Each Nominee has consented to serve as a Trustee and to being named in this Proxy Statement. If elected, each Nominee will serve as a Trustee for the lifetime of the applicable Trust or until his or her death, resignation, retirement or removal. If a Trustee sooner dies, resigns or retires, each Board may, in its discretion and subject to the 1940 Act, select another person to fill the vacant position.

Table of Contents

Prior to taking action to nominate each of the Nominees, the Nominating Sub-Committee of the Governance Committee (the “Nominating Committee”) of each Board reviewed the qualifications, experience and background of each of the Nominees. Some of the factors considered by the Nominating Committee included the following, among others: (1) the Nominee’s knowledge in matters relating to the mutual fund industry; (2) any experience possessed by the Nominee as a director or senior officer of other companies; (3) the Nominee’s educational background, reputation for high ethical standards, and professional integrity; (4) any specific financial, technical, or other expertise possessed by the Nominee and the extent to which such expertise would complement the Board’s existing mix of skills, core competencies, and qualifications; (5) the Nominee’s perceived ability to contribute to the ongoing functions of the Board, including the Nominee’s ability and commitment to attend meetings regularly and work collaboratively with other members of the Board; and (6) if applicable, the Nominee’s ability to qualify as an independent trustee for purposes of the 1940 Act.

Based upon this review, each Nominating Committee determined that nominating Mses. McLaughlin, Rapaccioli, and LaPorta and Messrs. Pereira, Riley, and Swanson would be in the best interests of the shareholders of each Trust. Each Board believes that these Nominees are well suited for service on that Board due to their knowledge of the financial services sector, and their substantial experience in serving as directors or trustees, officers or advisers of public companies and business organizations, including other investment companies.

Based upon this review, at a meeting of the Boards held on August 7, 2024, after discussion and further consideration of the matter, each Board voted to nominate each of the Nominees for election by shareholders.

What are the qualifications of the Nominees?

Set forth below are the names, ages, business experience during the past five years and other directorships of each of the Nominees and other information relating to the professional experiences, attributes and skills relevant to each Nominee’s qualifications to serve as a Trustee. The Nominees have varied experiences, attributes and skills that may be utilized in overseeing the activities of the Trusts, reviewing contractual arrangements with companies that provide services to the Trusts, and reviewing fund performance. Among the attributes or skills common to all Nominees are their ability to (i) review critically, evaluate, question and discuss information provided to them, (ii) interact effectively with the other Trustees, the Adviser, other service providers, counsel and the independent registered public accounting firm, and (iii) exercise effective and independent business judgment in the performance of their duties as Trustees. Each Nominee’s ability to perform his or her duties effectively has been attained through the Nominee’s business, consulting, public service and/or academic positions and through experience from service as a member of a Board, other investment companies and public companies, or non-profit entities or other organizations as set forth below. Each Nominee’s ability to perform his or her duties effectively also has been enhanced by his or her educational background, professional training, and/or other life experiences.

Following is a summary of the experience, attributes and skills that may be seen to qualify each Nominee to serve on the Board:

Patrick J. Riley: Mr. Riley is an experienced business executive with over 46 years of experience in the legal and financial services industries; his experience includes service as a trustee or director of various investment companies and Associate Justice of the Superior Court of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.

Mr. Riley serves as Chairperson of each Trust’s Board.

Under the retirement policy, upon receipt of such a resignation the other Independent Trustees will consider and vote on whether to accept or reject the submitted resignation.

Ms. LaPorta is an Interested Trustee because of her employment with State Street Global Advisors, an affiliate of the Trusts.

What are the Board’s responsibilities?

The Board is responsible for overseeing generally the management, activities and affairs of the Trusts and has approved contracts with various organizations to provide, among other services, day-to-day management required by the applicable Trust. The Board has engaged the Adviser to manage each Trust on a day-to-day basis. The Board is responsible for overseeing the Adviser and other service providers in the operation of the applicable Trust in accordance with the provisions of the 1940 Act, applicable state laws and regulations, other applicable laws and regulations, and such Trust’s organizational documents.

How does the Board oversee risk management on behalf of the funds?

The Board oversees risk management for the Trusts in several ways. The Board receives regular reports from both the Chief Compliance Officer (the “CCO”) and administrator for each of the Trusts, detailing the results of the Trust’s compliance with its Board-adopted policies and procedures, the investment policies and limitations of the applicable Trust, and applicable provisions of the federal securities laws and the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended. As needed, the Adviser discusses management issues regarding the Trust with the Board, soliciting the input of the Board on many aspects of management, including potential risks to the Trusts. The Board’s Audit Committee also receives reports on various aspects of risk that might affect the Trusts and offers advice to management, as appropriate. The Trustees also meet in executive session with the independent counsel to those Trustees who are not considered to be Independent Trustees, the independent registered public accounting firm, counsel to the Trusts, the CCO and representatives of management, as needed. Through these regular reports and interactions, the Board oversees the risk management parameters for the Trusts, which are effected on a day-to-day basis by service providers to the Trusts.

How is the Board structured?

The Board has established various committees to facilitate the timely and efficient consideration of various matters of importance to Independent Trustees, the Trusts, and shareholders and to facilitate compliance with legal and regulatory requirements. Currently, the Board has created an Audit Committee, Governance Committee, Nominating Committee, Valuation Committee and Qualified Legal and Compliance Committee (the “QLCC”). The purpose and function of the committees is described below.

Audit Committee. The Audit Committee is composed of all of the Independent Trustees. The Audit Committee meets twice a year, or more often as required, in conjunction with meetings of each Board. The Audit Committee oversees and monitors the Trusts’ internal accounting and control structure, their auditing function and their financial reporting process. The Audit Committee is responsible for selecting and retaining the independent accountants for the Trusts. The Audit Committee is responsible for approving the audit plans, fees and other material arrangements in respect of the engagement of the independent accountants, including non-audit services performed. The Audit Committee reviews the qualifications of the independent accountants’ key personnel involved in the foregoing activities and monitors the independent accountants’ independence. A copy of the Amended and Restated Audit Committee Charter is attached hereto as Appendix A. During the last fiscal year of each of the Trusts, each Trust held four Audit Committee meetings.

Table of Contents

Governance Committee and Nominating Committee. Each of the Governance Committee and the Nominating Committee is composed of all the Independent Trustees. The primary functions of the Governance Committee and the Nominating Committee are to review and evaluate the composition and performance of the Board; make nominations for membership on the Board and committees; review the responsibilities of each committee; and review governance procedures, compensation of Independent Trustees, and independence of outside counsel to the Trustees. The Nominating Committee will consider nominees to the Board recommended by shareholders. Recommendations should be submitted in accordance with the procedures set forth in the Nominating Committee Charter and should be submitted in writing to the Trusts, to the attention of the Trusts’ Secretary, at the address of the principal executive offices of the applicable Trust. Shareholder recommendations must be delivered to, or mailed and received at, the principal executive offices of the Trusts not less than sixty (60) calendar days nor more than ninety (90) calendar days prior to the date of the Board or shareholder meeting at which the nominee candidate would be considered for election. The Governance Committee performs an annual Board self-evaluation. A copy of the Nominating Committee Charter is attached hereto as Appendix B. During the last fiscal year of each of the Trusts, each Trust held three Governance Committee and Nominating Committee combined meetings except for SSGA Funds which held four combined meetings.

Valuation Committee. The Valuation Committee is composed of all the Independent Trustees. The Valuation Committee’s primary purpose is to review the actions and recommendations of the Adviser’s Oversight Committee no less often than quarterly. The Trusts have established procedures and guidelines for valuing portfolio securities and making fair value determinations from time to time. The Valuation Committee is responsible for overseeing the Trusts’ valuation determinations, with the assistance of the Oversight Committee, State Street and SSGA FM. During the last fiscal year of each of the Trusts, each Trust held four Valuation Committee meetings.

Qualified Legal and Compliance Committee. The QLCC is composed of all the Independent Trustees. The primary functions of the QLCC are to receive quarterly reports from the CCO; to oversee generally the Trusts’ responses to regulatory inquiries; and to investigate matters referred to it by the Chief Legal Officer and make recommendations to each Board regarding the implementation of an appropriate response to evidence of a material violation of the securities laws or breach of fiduciary duty or similar violation by the Trusts, their officers, or the Trustees. During the last fiscal year of each of the Trusts, each Trust held four QLCC meetings.

During the last fiscal year of each of the Trusts, each Board held five Board meetings with the exception of SSGA Funds, which held seven Board meetings, and State Street Institutional Funds, which held six Board meetings. Each Trustee who was then a member of the Board was present for at least 75% of the aggregate number of meetings of the Board held during the period for which he or she has been a Trustee and meetings held by all committees on which he or she served during the period that he or she served.

Ownership of Shares and Securities of the Funds, Adviser and Distributor. The table below sets forth the dollar value of all shares of each of the Trusts’ constituent funds and of all funds within the family of investment companies held directly or indirectly by each Trustee and Nominee as of December 31, 2023. To the best of the Trusts’ knowledge, as of December 31, 2023, no Trustee or Nominee owned 1% or more of the outstanding shares of any class of a Trust’s fund, and the Trustees and Nominees of the Trusts owned, as a group, less than 1% of the shares of each class of each fund of the Trusts. Additionally, as of December 31, 2023, none of the Independent Trustees or their immediate family members had any ownership of securities of the Adviser, State Street Global Advisors Funds Distributors, LLC (“SSGA FD” or the “Distributor”), the Funds’ distributor, or any person directly or indirectly controlling, controlled by or under common control with the Adviser or the Distributor.

Independent Public Accountant.

The accounting firm of Ernst & Young LLP currently serves as the registered independent public accountant (the “Independent Auditor”) for the Trusts. The Board has selected Ernst & Young LLP as the Independent Auditor to examine and report on the financial statements of each of the Trusts for their respective fiscal years ending 2023.

SSGA Funds had an additional tax compliance matter for FYE 2022 only.

All Other Fees. For the applicable fiscal years ended 2023 and 2022 for each of the Trusts, there were no fees billed for professional services rendered by Ernst & Young LLP for products and services provided by Ernst & Young LLP to each of the Trusts, other than the services noted above.

For the applicable fiscal years ended 2023 and 2022 for each of the Trusts, the aggregate fees billed for professional services rendered by Ernst & Young LLP for products and services provided by Ernst & Young LLP to the Adviser and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the Adviser that provides ongoing services to each of the Trusts that (i) relate directly to the operations and financial reporting of the applicable Trust and (ii) were pre-approved by each Trust’s Audit Committee were $9,540,002 and $9,327,125, respectively.

The Trusts’ Audit Committee Charter states the following with respect to pre-approval procedures:

The Audit Committee shall have the following duties and powers:

 

   

To pre-approve engagements by a Trust’s independent auditor for non-audit services to be rendered to the Trust’s investment adviser (not including any sub-adviser whose role is primarily portfolio management and is subcontracted with or overseen by another investment adviser), and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the investment adviser that provides ongoing services to the Trust, if the engagement relates directly to the operations and financial reporting of the Trust; and

 

14


Table of Contents
   

To establish, if deemed necessary or appropriate as an alternative to Audit Committee pre-approval of services to be provided by the independent auditor as required by paragraph (b) above, policies and procedures to permit such services to be pre-approved by other means, such as by action of a designated member or members of the Audit Committee, subject to the requirement that the decision of any member to whom authority is delegated to pre-approve an activity shall be presented to the full Audit Committee at its next scheduled meeting.

Alternate Pre-Approval Procedure:

 

   

The Chairperson, or a Co-Chairperson, of the Audit Committee is authorized to pre-approve any engagement involving the Trust’s independent auditors to the same extent as the Audit Committee. Any pre-approval decision by the Chairperson, or a Co-Chairperson, under the foregoing authority shall be presented to the Audit Committee at its next scheduled meeting.

None of the above services under the captions Audit-Related Fees, Tax Fees, and All Other Fees were performed in reliance on paragraph (c)(7)(i)(C) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X during the period of time for which such rule was effective.

For the applicable fiscal years ended 2023 and 2022 for each of the Trusts , the aggregate non-audit fees billed by Ernst & Young LLP for services rendered to each of the Trusts and the Adviser and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the Adviser that provided ongoing services to the Trusts were approximately $39,000,000 and $38,000,000, respectively.

Ernst & Young LLP notified the Trusts’ Audit Committee of all non-audit services that were rendered by Ernst & Young LLP to the Adviser and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the Adviser that provides services to the Trusts, which services were not required to be pre-approved pursuant to paragraph (c)(7)(ii) of Rule 2-01 of Regulation S-X. The Trusts’ Audit Committee considered whether such services were compatible with maintaining Ernst & Young LLP’s independence.

Trustees’ Compensation.

Independent Trustees are compensated on a calendar year basis. Any Trustee who is deemed to be an “interested person” (as defined in the 1940 Act) of the Funds does not receive compensation from the Funds for his or her service as a Trustee. As of January 1, 2024, except as noted below, each Independent Trustee will receive for his or her services to the Elfun Funds, State Street Master Funds, State Street Institutional Investment Trust, SSGA Funds, State Street Navigator Securities Lending Trust, State Street Institutional Funds and State Street Variable Insurance Series Funds, Inc. (together, the “Fund Entities”) an annual retainer of $390,000, which includes compensation for all regularly scheduled Board and committee meetings. The Chairperson receives an additional $100,000 annual retainer. The Independent Trustees receive a fee of $25,000 for each additional special in-person Board meeting and $5,000 for each additional special telephonic Board meeting. As of January 1, 2023, the total annual compensation paid to the Independent Trustees (other than telephonic and special meeting fees) is allocated to each Fund Entity as follows: a fixed amount of $21,000 is allocated to each Fund Entity or, if applicable, each series thereof; and the remainder will be allocated among the Fund Entities or, if applicable, each series thereof based on relative net assets excluding, however, any feeder fund that invests in a master fund that is a Fund Entity or series thereof. The Independent Trustees are reimbursed for travel and other out-of-pocket expenses in connection with meeting attendance. As of the date of this Proxy Statement, the Trustees were not paid pension or retirement benefits as part of the Funds’ expenses. 

The compensation that Independent Trustees received from the Trusts as of December 31, 2023 is set forth in Appendix D.

What does the Board recommend?

Each Board has determined that election of the six (6) Nominees as Trustees is in the interests of each Trust and its shareholders. Accordingly, after consideration of the above factors and other information it considered relevant, each Board, including all of the Independent Trustees, unanimously approved the nomination of each of the six (6) Nominees for each of the Trusts. Each Board is recommending that the shareholders vote “FOR” each of the Nominees.

THAT SHAREHOLDERS VOTE “FOR” EACH OF THE NOMINEES UNDER THE PROPOSAL

GENERAL INFORMATION ABOUT THE PROXY STATEMENT

Who is asking for my vote?

Each Trust’s Board is soliciting your vote for a Special Meeting of shareholders of that Trust.

How is my proxy being solicited?

Each Trust has retained Broadridge Investor Communication Solutions, Inc. (the “Proxy Solicitor”) to assist in the solicitation of proxies, at an estimated cost of $891,000 which will be paid by the Adviser. As the date of the Special Meeting approaches, certain shareholders may receive a telephone call from a representative of the Proxy Solicitor if their votes have not yet been received. Authorization to permit the Proxy Solicitor to execute proxies may be obtained by telephonic instructions from shareholders of the Trusts. Proxies that are obtained telephonically will be recorded in accordance with certain procedures, as explained further below. Each Board believes that these procedures are reasonably designed to ensure that both the identity of the shareholder casting the vote and the voting instructions of the shareholder are accurately determined and recorded.

In situations where a telephonic proxy is solicited, the Proxy Solicitor’s representative is required to ask for each shareholder’s full name, address, social security or employer identification number, title (if the shareholder is authorized to act on behalf of an entity, such as a corporation), the number of shares owned, and to confirm that the shareholder has received the proxy materials in the mail. The Proxy Solicitor’s representative will explain the process, read the Proposal on the Proxy Ballot, and ask for the shareholder’s instructions on the Proposal. Although the Proxy Solicitor’s representative is permitted to answer questions about the process, he or she is not permitted to recommend to the shareholder how to vote, other than reading any recommendation set forth in the Proxy Statement. The Proxy Solicitor’s representative will record the shareholder’s instructions on the Proxy Ballot. Within approximately 72 hours of soliciting telephonic voting instructions, the shareholder will be sent a letter or mailgram to confirm his or her vote and asking the shareholder to call the Proxy Solicitor immediately if his or her instructions are not correctly reflected in the confirmation.

In addition to solicitation by mail, certain officers and representatives of the Trusts, officers and employees of the Adviser or its affiliates and certain financial services firms and their representatives, who will receive no extra compensation for their services, may solicit votes by telephone, telegram, facsimile, or other communication.

What happens to my proxy once I submit it?

Elfun Diversified Fund, Elfun Government Money Market Fund, Elfun Income Fund, Elfun International Equity Fund, Elfun Tax-Exempt Income Fund, Elfun Trusts, SSGA Funds, State Street Institutional Investment Trust, State Street Master Funds, State Street Navigator Securities Lending Trust, State Street Institutional Funds and State Street Variable Insurance Series Funds, Inc.: Each Board has named Bruce Rosenberg, Treasurer and Principal Financial Officer of the Trusts, and Ann M. Carpenter, President of the Trusts or one or more substitutes designated by the President, as proxies who are authorized to vote fund shares as directed by shareholders.

If you followed the instructions when you voted, your proxies will vote your shares as you have directed. If you submitted a Proxy Ballot but did not vote on the Proposal, your proxies will vote on the Proposal as recommended by the Board, except as described under “What are the voting rights and the quorum requirements?”

Can I revoke my proxy after I submit it?

A shareholder may revoke the accompanying proxy at any time prior to its use by filing with the Trust a written revocation or a duly executed proxy bearing a later date. In addition, any shareholder who attends the Special

 

19


Table of Contents

Meeting in person may vote by ballot at the Special Meeting, thereby canceling any proxy previously given. The persons named in the accompanying proxy will vote as directed by the shareholder under the proxy. In the absence of voting directions under any proxy that is signed and returned, they intend to vote “FOR” the Proposal and may vote in their discretion with respect to other matters not now known to the Board that may be presented at the Special Meeting.

What are the voting rights and quorum requirements?

Each shareholder of a Trust is entitled to one vote for each share held as to any matter on which such shareholder is entitled to vote and for each fractional share that is owned, the shareholder shall be entitled to a proportionate fractional vote. Thirty percent (30%) of the shares entitled to vote shall constitute a quorum for all Trusts except for State Street Variable Insurance Series, Inc., where one-third (1/3) of the shares entitled to vote shall constitute a quorum, and Elfun Diversified Fund, Elfun Government Money Market Fund, Elfun Income Fund, Elfun International Equity Fund, Elfun Tax-Exempt Income Fund, and Elfun Trusts, where fifty percent (50%) of the shares entitled to vote shall constitute a quorum. Shares have no preemptive or subscription rights.

Only shareholders of the funds at the close of business on October 7, 2024 (the “Record Date”) will be entitled to be present and give voting instructions for the funds at the Special Meeting with respect to their shares owned as of that Record Date. To be counted, the properly executed Voting Instruction Form must be received no later than 11:59 p.m. on December 5, 2024. Appendix E sets forth the number of shares of each class of each Fund issued and outstanding as of the Record Date.

The chairperson of the Special Meeting may adjourn or postpone the Special Meeting. The question of adjournments or postponements may also be (but is not required to be) submitted to vote of the shareholders of record, and in that case, any adjournment or postponement with respect to one or more matters must be approved by the vote of a majority of the votes cast in person or by proxy at the Special Meeting with respect to the matter or matters adjourned or postponed, whether or not a quorum is present with respect to such matter or matters, and if approved, such adjournment or postponement shall take place without the necessity of further notice. Any shares present and entitled to vote at the Special Meeting may, at the discretion of the proxies named therein, be voted in favor of such an adjournment or postponement.

If a shareholder abstains from voting as to any matter, or if a broker returns a “non-vote” proxy, indicating a lack of authority to vote on a matter, then the shares represented by such abstention or non-vote will be treated as shares that are present at the Special Meeting for purposes of determining the existence of a quorum. However, abstentions and broker non-votes will be disregarded in determining the “votes cast” on an issue. Since each Proposal requires the affirmative vote of a plurality of the shares cast at the Special Meeting, an abstention or broker non-vote will have no effect on such matter.

Voting by Insurance Companies

The following information is relevant to shareholders or variable contract owners of State Street Variable Insurance Series Funds, Inc.

Insurance company separate accounts (the “Separate Accounts”) are the only shareholders of record of the Funds. Each Separate Account is a segregated asset account established by an insurance company (the “Insurance Companies”). Certain Separate Accounts are registered with the SEC under the 1940 Act as unit investment trusts, whereas other Separate Accounts are excluded from the definition of “investment company” for purposes of the 1940 Act and therefore are not registered with the SEC under the 1940 Act. Net premiums paid by a variable contract owner may be allocated to one or more of the sub-accounts of each Separate Account that invest in shares of the Funds.

Each Insurance Company will vote the shares of the Funds held by its Separate Accounts at the Special Meeting in accordance with timely instructions received from persons entitled to give voting instructions under the

 

20


Table of Contents

variable contracts. All properly executed Notice/Proxy Cards received by the issuing Insurance Company by the close of business on December 5, 2024 will be counted for purposes of voting at the Special Meeting.

The number of shares of capital stock in a Fund for which a variable contract owner may give voting instructions is equal to the number of shares, or fraction of shares, held in the Separate Account attributable to the owner’s variable contract on the Record Date. Each share of such outstanding capital stock is entitled to one vote, and fractional votes are counted.

Each Insurance Company will vote shares attributable to variable contracts as to which no voting instructions are received in proportion (for or withhold) to those for which instructions are received. If an executed Notice/Proxy Card is received but does not specify a choice as to the Proposal, each Insurance Company will consider its timely receipt as an instruction to vote in favor of the Proposal. In certain circumstances, an Insurance Company has the right to disregard voting instructions from certain variable contract owners, although the Adviser is not aware that any Insurance Company believes that these circumstances exist with respect to the matters to be voted on at the Special Meeting.

The Insurance Companies do not require that a specified number of contract owners submit voting instructions before the Insurance Companies will vote the shares of a Fund held by their respective Separate Accounts at the Special Meeting. Therefore, a small number of variable contract owners may determine whether a Proposal is approved. In determining to vote the shares of a Fund held by its Separate Accounts at the Special Meeting, an Insurance Company, in its sole discretion, may consider such factors as (1) the percentage of votes represented by voting instructions received by the Insurance Company, and (2) the percentage of variable contracts represented by voting instructions received by the Insurance Company. When such determination has been made, the Insurance Company will vote the shares of the Fund held by its Separate Accounts as outlined in the paragraph above.

What are the voting procedures for master-feeder Funds?

Certain series of State Street Institutional Investment Trust (each such series, a “Feeder Fund”) pursue their investment objectives by investing substantially all of their investable assets in a corresponding master fund that may be a series of State Street Institutional Investment Trust or State Street Master Trust (each such series, a “Master Fund”). Shareholders of the Master Funds’ Feeder Funds will vote on the proposals with respect to their respective Trusts. As a shareholder of a Master Fund, each of the Feeder Funds is “passing-through” to its shareholders the vote on the proposals for the applicable Trust.

Shareholders of each Feeder Fund are being asked to provide voting instructions to the applicable Feeder Fund as to how to vote regarding the proposals for each Master Fund. Each of the Feeder Funds will cast its votes for the corresponding Master Fund in the same proportion as the votes cast by its shareholders on such proposals. If you are a shareholder of a Feeder Fund, your vote for a proposal will apply (i) directly to the proposal for the applicable Feeder Fund in which you own shares, and (ii) indirectly to the proposal for the corresponding Master Fund.

Each of the Feeder Funds will vote shares of the corresponding Master Fund for which it receives no voting instructions in the same proportion as the shares for which it does receive voting instructions. Because each of the Feeder Fund’s votes are proportionate to its percentage interest in the Trust of which the applicable Master Fund is a series, the majority of such Trust’s shareholders could approve an action against which a majority of the outstanding voting securities of any Feeder Fund votes.

Can shareholders submit proposals for consideration in a proxy statement?

The Trusts are not required to hold annual meetings and currently do not intend to hold such meetings.

 

21


Table of Contents

A shareholder proposal to be considered for inclusion in a proxy statement at any subsequent meeting of shareholders must be submitted in a reasonable time before a proxy statement for that meeting is printed and mailed. Whether a proposal is submitted in a proxy statement will be determined in accordance with applicable federal and state laws.

What if a proposal that is not in this Proxy Statement comes up at the Special Meeting?

If any other matter is properly presented, your proxies will vote in their discretion in accordance with their best judgment, including any proposal to adjourn or postpone the meeting. At the time this Proxy Statement was printed, the Boards knew of no matter that needed to be acted upon at the Special Meeting other than the Proposals discussed in this Proxy Statement.

What is “Householding?”

Only one copy of this Proxy Statement may be mailed to each household, even if more than one person in the household is a shareholder of record of any of the funds, unless a Trust has received contrary instructions from one or more of the household’s shareholders. If a shareholder needs an additional copy of this Proxy Statement, please contact Broadridge Investor Communication Solutions, Inc. at 800-579-1639. If in the future, any shareholder does not wish to combine or wishes to combine or recombine the mailing of a proxy statement with household members, please inform the applicable Trust in writing at One Iron Street, Boston, Massachusetts 02210 or via telephone the following telephone numbers: (i) 1-800-242-0134 with respect to Elfun Diversified Fund, Elfun Government Money Market Fund, Elfun Income Fund, Elfun International Equity Fund, Elfun Tax-Exempt Income Fund, Elfun Trusts, State Street Institutional Funds, State Street Variable Insurance Series Funds, Inc., and the State Street Income Fund and State Street U.S. Core Equity Fund (each, a series of the State Street Institutional Investment Trust); (ii) 1-800-647-7327 with respect to SSGA Funds and all series of the State Street Institutional Investment Trust other than State Street Income Fund and State Street U.S. Core Equity Fund; and (iii) 1-877-521-4083 with respect to the State Street Navigator Securities Lending Trust.

Who pays for this proxy solicitation?

All of the Funds, except State Street Institutional Funds and State Street Variable Insurance Series Funds, Inc., will pay the expenses in connection with the proxy solicitation, Proxy Statement and Special Meeting. The Funds will also pay expenses, including the printing, mailing, solicitation and vote tabulation expenses, legal fees, and out-of-pocket expenses.

State Street Institutional Funds and State Street Variable Insurance Series Funds, Inc. will not pay the expenses in connection with the proxy solicitation, Proxy Statement and Special Meeting. The Adviser (or an affiliate) will pay such expenses, including the printing, mailing, solicitation and vote tabulation expenses, legal fees, and out-of-pocket expenses.

AMENDED AND RESTATED

AUDIT COMMITTEE CHARTER

 

  A.

Establishment of the Committee

The Audit Committee (the “Committee”) of the Board of Trustees/Directors (the “Board”) of each Fund Entity was established by vote of the Board. The Committee shall be governed in accordance with this Committee Charter (the “Charter”). Unless otherwise stated herein or required by the context, each singular reference herein to the Fund Entity, Board, Fund and Committee shall be construed as a reference to each Fund Entity, Board, Fund or Committee of a Board.

 

  B.

The purposes of the Committee are:

 

  i.

to review, discuss with independent auditors and representatives of SSGA Funds Management, Inc. (the “Adviser”), and assess (i) the Fund Entity’s accounting and financial reporting policies and practices and its internal controls, (ii) the quality and objectivity of the Funds’ financial statements and the independent audits thereof;

 

  ii.

to select and recommend to the Board for approval the engagement of independent auditors for the Fund Entity and to act as a liaison between independent auditors and the Board; and

 

  iii.

to approve all audit and permissible non-audit services provided to the Fund Entity, and to certain other persons, by the Fund Entity’s independent auditors.

Nothing in this Charter shall be construed to reduce the responsibilities or liabilities of the Adviser or the Fund Entities’ independent auditors. The function of the Committee shall be oversight; it shall be the responsibility of the Adviser to maintain appropriate systems for accounting and internal control; the independent auditors’ responsibility to plan and carry out a proper audit and report thereon to the Board and shareholders, as required by law; and the Adviser’s and the independent auditors’ responsibility to determine that each Fund’s financial statements are accurate and complete and in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Members of the Committee are not employees of the Fund Entities or the Funds and, in serving on the Committee, are not, and do not hold themselves out to be, acting as auditors. As such, it is not the duty or responsibility of the Committee or its members to conduct “field work” or other types of auditing or accounting reviews or procedures. Each member of the Committee shall be entitled to rely on (i) the integrity of those persons and

organizations within the Adviser and its affiliates and outside the Fund Entities from which the Committee receives information and (ii) the accuracy of financial and other information provided to the Committee by such persons or organizations absent actual knowledge to the contrary.

 

  C.

Meetings

The Committee will meet, in person or by telephone/videoconference (or a combination thereof), with or without notice, as often as necessary to perform its duties. The Committee may meet in executive session or may meet with any persons whom the Committee determines may be appropriate. The Committee will keep minutes of its meetings, which will be available to the Board for its review.

 

  D.

Committee Members

The members of the Committee shall be the members of the Board who are not “interested persons” of a Fund Entity as defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended. Unless designated by the Board, the Committee may appoint a Chairperson or Vice Chairperson from its members, who shall preside over each meeting of the Committee.

 

  E.

Powers and Responsibilities of the Committee

The following listed committee responsibilities and duties describe areas of attention by the Committee in broad terms. To carry out its purposes, the Committee shall have the following duties and powers:

 

  i.

to approve and recommend to the Board approval of the selection, retention or termination of independent auditors to provide audit, review or attest services to the Fund Entity, and, in connection therewith, to review and approve fees charged by the auditor for such services and evaluate the independence of the auditors, including whether the auditors provide any non-audit services to the Adviser (not including any subadviser whose role is primarily portfolio management and is subcontracted with or overseen by another investment adviser), and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the Adviser that provides ongoing services to the Fund that were not pre-approved, and to receive the auditors’ specific representations as to their independence as part of such evaluation;

 

  ii.

to pre-approve engagements by a Fund Entity’s independent auditor for non-audit services to be rendered to the Adviser (not including any subadviser whose role is primarily portfolio management and is subcontracted with or overseen by another investment adviser), and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the Adviser that provides ongoing services to the Fund, if the engagement relates directly to the operations and financial reporting of the Fund;

 

  iii.

to establish, if deemed necessary or appropriate as an alternative to Committee pre- approval of services to be provided by the independent auditor as required by paragraph (ii) above, policies and procedures to permit such services to be pre- approved by other means, such as by action of a designated member or members of the Committee, subject to the requirement that the decision of any member to whom authority is delegated to pre-approve an activity shall be presented to the full Committee at its next scheduled meeting;

 

  iv.

to meet with the Fund Entities’ independent auditors, including private meetings, as necessary (i) to review the arrangements for and scope of the annual audit and any special audits; (ii) to discuss any matters of concern relating to the Funds’ financial statements, including any adjustments to such statements recommended by the auditors, or other results of said audit(s); (iii) to receive and consider the auditors’ comments with respect to the Funds’ financial policies, procedures and internal accounting controls and the Adviser’s and its affiliates’ responses thereto; and (iv) to review the form of opinion the auditors propose to render to the Board and shareholders;

  2.

The Shareholder Recommendation must be delivered to, or mailed and received at, the principal executive offices of the Fund Entity not less than sixty (60) calendar days nor more than ninety (90) calendar days prior to the date of the Board or shareholder meeting at which the nominee candidate would be considered for election.

A Shareholder Recommendation considered by the Committee in connection with the Committee’s nomination of any candidate(s) for appointment or election as an independent Trustee/Directors need not be considered again by the Committee in connection with any subsequent nomination(s).

 

  3.

The Shareholder Recommendation must include: (i) a statement in writing setting forth (A) the name, age, date of birth, business address, residence address and nationality of the person recommended by the shareholder (the “candidate”), and the names and addresses of at least three professional references; (B) the number of all shares of the Fund Entity (including the series and class, if applicable) owned of record or beneficially by the candidate, the date such shares were acquired and the investment intent of such acquisition(s), as reported to such shareholder by the candidate; (C) any other information regarding the candidate called for with respect to director nominees by paragraphs (a), (d), (e) and (f) of Item 401 of Regulation S-K or paragraph (b) of Item 22 of Rule 14a-101 (Schedule 14A) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission (or the corresponding provisions of any applicable regulation or rule subsequently adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission or any successor agency with jurisdiction related to the Fund Entity); (D) any other information regarding the candidate that would be required to be disclosed if the candidate were a nominee in a proxy statement or other filing required to be made in connection with solicitation of proxies for election of directors pursuant to Section 14 of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder or any other applicable law or regulation; and (E) whether the recommending shareholder believes that the candidate is or will be an “interested person” of the Fund Entity (as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended) and, if not an “interested person,” information regarding the candidate that will be sufficient, in the discretion of the Board or the Committee, for the Fund Entity to make such determination; (ii) the written and signed consent of the candidate to be named as a nominee and to serve as a Trustee/Director if elected; (iii) the recommending shareholder’s name as it appears on the Fund Entity’s books; (iv) the number of all shares of the Fund Entity (including the series and class, if applicable) owned beneficially and of record by the recommending shareholder; (v) a complete description of all arrangements or understandings between the recommending shareholder and the candidate and any other person or persons (including their names) pursuant to which the recommendation is being made by the recommending shareholder including, without limitation, all direct and indirect compensation and other material monetary agreements, arrangements and understandings between the candidate and recommending shareholder during the past three years, and (vi) a brief description of the candidate’s relevant background and experience for membership on the Board, such as qualification as an audit committee financial expert.

 

  4.

The Committee may require the recommending shareholder to furnish such other information as it may reasonably require or deem necessary to verify any information furnished pursuant to paragraph 3 above or to determine the eligibility of the candidate to serve as a Trustee/Director of the Fund Entity

  or to satisfy applicable law. If the recommending shareholder fails to provide such other information in writing within seven days of receipt of a written request from the Committee, the recommendation of such candidate as a nominee will be deemed not properly submitted for consideration, and the Committee will not be required to consider such candidate.
