§ Why is the Merger proposed?

o As part of the Board’s annual review of contractual arrangements in August and September 2014, the Board directed DSL to explore options regarding the future of an Underlying Fund, VY^® Franklin Mutual Shares Portfolio (“Mutual Shares Portfolio”), in which Founding Strategy Portfolio invests. At the March Board meeting the Board approved the reorganization of that Mutual Shares Portfolio into another portfolio in the Voya family of funds (the “Mutual Shares Portfolio Reorganization”). If shareholders of Mutual Shares Portfolio approve the Mutual Shares Portfolio Reorganization, Founding Strategy Portfolio will no longer be able to invest pursuant to its investment strategy, by investing in all of its Underlying Funds on a fixed-percentage basis.

o Similarities in investment objectives of each portfolio.

o This Merger was determined to be in the best interest of shareholders by the Board after a review of several factors.

As described in the chart that follows, the Portfolios have similar investment objectives.

	Founding Strategy Portfolio	Moderately Aggressive Portfolio

§ How does Founding Strategy Portfolio’s performance compare to Moderately Aggressive Portfolio?

The following information is intended to help you understand the risk of investing in the Portfolios. The following bar charts show the changes in the Portfolios’ performance from year to year, and the table compares the Portfolios’ performance to the performance of a broad-based securities market index/indices for the same period. The Portfolios’ performance information reflects applicable fee waivers and/or expense limitations in effect during the period presented. Absent such fee waiver/expense limitations, if any, performance would have been lower. The bar chart shows the performance of the Portfolios’ Class ADV shares. Other class shares’ performance would be higher than Class ADV shares’ performance because of the higher expenses paid by Class ADV shares. Performance in the Average Annual Total Returns table does not include insurance-related charges imposed under a Variable Contract or expenses related to a Qualified Plan. If these charges or expenses were included, performance would have been lower. Thus you should not compare the Portfolio’s performance directly with the performance information of other investment products without taking into account all insurance-related charges and expenses payable under you Variable Contract or Qualified Plan. The Portfolios’ past performance is no guarantee of future results.
