A message from MESP to share with family members and friends.

Saving for college can make a difference in a child's future and a 529 college savings plan can help make higher education possible. Just like a 401(k) plan helps you save for retirement, a 529 college savings plan helps you save for a college education. The Michigan Education Savings Program or MESP, offered by the State of Michigan, provides families with the following benefits:

- Contributions are eligible for a Michigan income tax deduction for Michigan taxpayers. Deduction limitations and other restrictions apply.

- Any earnings grow tax-deferred.

- Funds may be used for qualified higher education costs such as tuition, books, and certain room and board expenses in the U.S. and or even abroad.

- Qualified withdrawals are federal and state income tax free.

- It's transferable. If your child decides not to attend college, or uses a scholarship, you can change the beneficiary to another member of the family.

I encourage you to learn more about MESP for your family. It's flexible, makes saving easy and includes federal and Michigan income tax advantages. To learn more, including tax deduction details, simply visit www.misaves.com.

Consider the investment objectives, risks, charges and expenses before investing in the Michigan Education Savings Program. Please visit www.misaves.com for a Disclosure Booklet containing this and other information.

Before investing in a 529 Plan, you should consider whether the state you or your designated beneficiary reside in or have taxable income in has a 529 plan that offer favorable state income tax or other benefits that are only available if you invest in that state's 529 plan.

Non qualified withdrawals are subject to income taxes and 10% additional tax.

The tax information contained herein is not intended to be used, and cannot be used, by any taxpayer for the purpose of avoiding tax penalties that may be imposed on the taxpayer. It was written to support MESP. Taxpayers should seek advice based on their own particular circumstances from an independent tax advisor.

Thank you and have a great day!
