#### Notice of Fund Changes for:
LNL Agents' 401(k) Savings Plan

(the "Plan")

Dear Plan Participant:

Lincoln Financial seeks to provide you with the best opportunity to prepare for your retirement. This includes regularly reviewing investment funds that are available under the Plan.

This notice gives you an overview of an upcoming fund change, the timing of that change, and the actions you may wish to consider as a result of the modifications that will be made to the Plan.

Effective **April 25, 2023,** the Jackson Square SMID-Cap Growth CIT Fund (Class M) will be replaced with AB Discovery Growth Fund Class Z. Any existing assets and/or future contribution investment elections remaining in the Jackson Square SMID-Cap Growth CIT Fund (Class M) at that time will automatically be mapped (or transferred) as shown in the chart below. Any contributions or rollovers received on or after April 25, 2023 that are directed to the fund being eliminated, will be mapped as shown in the chart below. **Because this mapping (or transfer) is automatic, you do not need to take any action**.

#### What do you need to do?
Take a few minutes to review your investment portfolio. Make any changes you feel are necessary to meet

your retirement savings goals. If you don't want the investment of your existing account or future contributions to be mapped (or transferred) as indicated, you may change your investment elections and/or make a reallocation on your own by initiating a transfer prior to 4:00 p.m. Eastern on **April 24, 2023**. Note that you cannot choose to keep any investments in or transfer any investment to the fund being eliminated. To make a change, log in to your account at LincolnFinancial.com to complete your transaction online, or call the Lincoln Customer Contact Center at **800-234-3500**. Customer Service Representatives are available Monday through Friday, from 8:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. Eastern, and will be glad to assist you.

**Please be sure to make any changes prior to 4:00 p.m. Eastern on April 24, 2023 if you do not want the mapping to occur.** Of course, you could also wait until after the automatic mapping occurs if you wish to exchange funds or change where your future contributions are invested.

Any transactions requested on April 25, 2023, (such as fund transfers, loans, or distribution transactions) will not be processed while the fund change is being made but will process normally once the fund change is completed. Your account will remain fully invested during the change.

If you are also a participant in any of Lincoln's non-qualified deferred compensation plans administered by Nolan Financial Group that utilize the same fund options as the Plan, please note that this same fund change will impact the non-qualified plans at the same time.

This notice supplements the more comprehensive Annual Participant Fee Disclosure Notice ("Fee Disclosure Notice") you received regarding certain plan and investment-related information found in the Comparative Chart Summary contained in the Fee Disclosure Notice. Please keep this supplemental notice with your Fee Disclosure Notice. A copy of the most recent Fee Disclosure Notice is available by contacting the Lincoln Customer Contact Center at 800-234-3500.
