For investments over $1 million, a 1.00% maximum deferred sales charge may apply.
(2)
Total annual fund operating expenses do not correlate to the ratio of expenses to average net assets that is disclosed in the Funds annual report in the financial highlights table, which reflects the operating expenses of the Fund and does not include Acquired Fund fees and expenses.
(3)
Hartford Funds Management Company, LLC (the Investment Manager) has contractually agreed to reimburse expenses (exclusive of taxes, interest expenses, brokerage commissions and extraordinary expenses) to the extent necessary to maintain total annual fund operating expenses as follows: 1.00% (Class A), 1.30% (Class R3), 1.00% (Class R4), 0.80% (Class R5) and 0.80% (Class Y). In addition, Hartford Administrative Services Company (HASCO), the Funds transfer agent, has contractually agreed to reimburse any portion of the transfer agency fees over 0.30% of the average daily net assets per fiscal year for all classes. Each contractual arrangement will remain in effect until February 28, 2015, and shall renew automatically for one-year terms thereafter unless the Investment Manager or HASCO, respectively, provides written notice of termination prior to the start of the next term or upon approval of the Board of Directors of the Fund.

(4)
Other expenses include an administrative services fee paid by the Fund for third party recordkeeping that is payable as a percentage of net assets in the amount of up to: 0.20% (Class R3), 0.15% (Class R4) and 0.10% (Class R5).
EXAMPLE.
The examples below are intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. The examples assume that:
·
Your investment has a 5% return each year
·
The Funds operating expenses remain the same
·
You reinvest all dividends and distributions
·
You pay any deferred sales charge due for the applicable period.
Your actual costs may be higher or lower. Based on these assumptions, for every $10,000 invested, you would pay the following expenses if you sell all of your shares at the end of each time period indicated:

Portfolio Turnover.
The Fund will not incur transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells shares of Hartford Funds (or turns over its portfolio). The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells other securities. A higher portfolio turnover rate may indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual fund operating expenses or in the example, affect the Funds performance. During the most recent fiscal year, the Funds portfolio turnover rate was 21% of the average value of its portfolio.
PRINCIPAL INVESTMENT STRATEGY.
The Fund is designed for investors who plan to retire close to the year 2010, and who desire a portfolio that becomes increasingly conservative for approximately 15 years after retirement. The Fund seeks to achieve its goal by investing in a diversified combination of other Hartford Funds and may also invest in one or more unaffiliated money market funds (together the Underlying Funds) as well as certain exchange-traded funds (ETFs) and/or exchange-traded notes (ETNs) through an asset allocation strategy implemented by the sub-adviser, Wellington Management Company, LLP (Wellington Management). Under normal market conditions, Wellington Management adjusts the Funds investments to achieve approximately 40% of assets in equity instruments and equity funds and approximately 60% of assets in fixed income
3
instruments and fixed income funds, although these percentages may increase or decrease from time to time by up to 10%. After its target retirement date (2010), the Fund will gradually reach its most conservative allocation of approximately 28% in equity instruments and equity funds and 72% in fixed income instruments and fixed income funds approximately 15 years after the date indicated in the Funds name. The Fund may also invest in Underlying Funds, ETFs or ETNs that allocate to alternative asset classes, including inflation protected investments and commodities, as well as in cash and cash equivalents.
The Underlying Funds in which the Fund may invest generally represent the following fund types: equity, fixed income, inflation linked, cash or cash equivalents and diversifier funds that can invest in fixed income instruments, equity instruments and/or alternate assets classes.
GLIDE PATH ILLUSTRATION.
As discussed above, over time the Funds allocation to asset classes and Underlying Funds will change according to a predetermined glide path as shown in the following chart. The Funds current glide path asset allocation is based on its target date, which is the year in the name of the Fund. The glide path illustration shows the Funds expected target strategic asset allocation to each category, Underlying Fixed Income, Underlying Equity, Underlying Inflation Protected, Underlying Diversifier Funds and cash, and how the allocation changes over time. The glide path illustration shows how the Funds asset mix is designed to become more conservativeboth prior to and after retirementas time elapses. Although the glide path is meant to reduce the Funds potential volatility as retirement approaches, the Fund is not designed for a lump sum redemption at the retirement date. The Fund does not guarantee a particular level of income and Wellington Management may choose to modify the target asset allocation of the glide path itself from time to time.
4
Wellington Management may make tactical allocation adjustments around the glide path, which means that Wellington Management may vary the Funds actual asset allocation exposures from the glide paths long-term targets based on Wellington Managements views of perceived risks and opportunities. Wellington Managements tactical allocations are not expected to vary from the target allocations by more than plus or minus 10%. The allocations shown in the chart do not reflect Wellington Managements tactical allocation adjustments.
MAIN RISKS.
The primary risks of investing in the Fund are described below. When you sell your shares they may be worth more or less than what you paid for them, which means that you could lose money as a result of your investment.
An investment in the Fund is not a bank deposit and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency.
As with any fund, there is no guarantee that the Fund will achieve its goal. For more information regarding risks and investment matters please see Additional Information Regarding Risks and Investment Strategies in the Funds statutory prospectus.
Target Date Fund Risk
An investment in the Fund is not guaranteed, and you may experience losses, including losses near, at or after the target retirement year. There is no guarantee that the Fund will provide adequate income at and through your retirement.
Target Date Allocation Risk
- The Fund is designed to provide portfolio asset allocation that becomes increasingly focused on fixed income investments and decreasingly focused on equity investments as the target retirement year approaches. Therefore, the farther away the Fund is from its target year, the higher the percentage of equity investments it will hold and the more aggressive its
5
investment strategy and volatile its portfolio may be considered. Conversely, the closer the Fund is to its target year, the higher the percentage of fixed income investments it will hold, generally providing a more conservative investment approach.
Fund of Funds Risk
- The Fund invests primarily in the Underlying Funds, and the Funds investment performance is directly related to the investment performance of the Underlying Funds it holds. The ability of the Fund to meet its investment objective is directly related to the ability of the Underlying Funds to meet their objectives as well as the sub-advisers allocation among those Underlying Funds.
The Fund is also subject to the risks associated with the Underlying Funds in proportion to its investment and changes in the value of the Underlying Funds may have a significant effect on the net asset value of the Fund. The risks of the underlying equity funds include risks specific to their strategies, such as small-cap stock risk, value or growth orientation risk, derivatives risk and foreign investments risk, among others, as well as risks related to the equity markets in general. The risks of the underlying fixed income funds include credit risk, derivatives risk, foreign investments risk, interest rate risk and liquidity risk. By investing in the Fund, you will indirectly bear fees and expenses charged by the Underlying Funds, in addition to the Funds direct fees and expenses.
Investment Strategy Risk
- The risk that, if the sub-advisers investment strategy does not perform as expected, the Fund could underperform its peers or lose money. There is no guarantee that the Funds investment objective will be achieved.
Market Risk
Market risk is the risk that one or more markets in which the Fund invests will go down in value, including the possibility that the markets will go down sharply and unpredictably. Securities may decline in value due to the activities and financial prospects of individual companies or to general market and economic movements and trends.
The Fund is subject to certain other risks, which are described in the Funds statutory prospectus.
PAST PERFORMANCE.
The performance information below indicates the risks of investing in the Fund. Keep in mind that past performance does not indicate future results. Updated performance information is available at www.hartfordfunds.com.
The returns:
·
Assume reinvestment of all dividends and distributions
·
Include the Funds performance when the Funds portfolio pursued a modified strategy and was managed by a previous sub-adviser
·
Would be lower if the Funds operating expenses had not been limited.
The bar chart:
·
Shows how the Funds total return has varied from year to year
·
Does not include the effect of sales charges. If sales charges were reflected in the bar chart, returns would have been lower
6
·
Shows the returns of the Funds Class A shares. Because all of the Funds shares are invested in the same portfolio of securities, returns for the Funds other classes differ only to the extent that the classes do not have the same expenses.
Total returns by calendar year (excludes sales charges)
Highest/Lowest quarterly results during the periods shown in the bar chart were:
Highest
13.56% (2nd quarter, 2009)
Lowest
-15.57% (4th quarter, 2008)
AVERAGE ANNUAL RETURNS.
The table below shows returns for the Fund over time compared to those of two broad-based market indices. After-tax returns, which are calculated using the historical highest individual federal marginal income tax rates and do not reflect the impact of state and local taxes, are shown only for Class A shares and will vary for other classes. Returns prior to the inception date of certain classes of shares may reflect returns of another class of shares. For more information regarding returns see the Performance Notes section in the Funds statutory prospectus.
Actual after-tax returns, which depend on an investors particular tax situation, may differ from those shown and are not relevant to investors who hold their Fund shares through tax-deferred arrangements, such as 401(k) plans or individual retirement accounts.
