Principal Investment Strategies
Under normal circumstances, we invest:
exclusively in high-quality, short-term, U.S. dollar-denominated money market instruments of domestic and foreign issuers.
 
These instruments  include, but are not limited to, bank obligations such as time deposits and certificates of deposit, government securities, asset-backed securities, commercial paper, corporate bonds, municipal securities  and repurchase agreements. These investments may have fixed, floating, or variable rates of interest and may be obligations of U.S. or foreign issuers. We may invest more than 25% of the Fund’s total assets in U.S. dollar-denominated obligations of U.S. banks.
Our security selection is based on several factors, including credit quality, yield and maturity, while taking into account the Fund’s overall level of liquidity and weighted average maturity. We will only purchase securities that we have determined present minimal credit risk.
Principal Investment Risks
You could lose money by investing in the Fund. Because the share price of the Fund will fluctuate, when you sell your shares they may be worth more or less than what you originally paid for them. The Fund may impose a fee upon sale of your shares or may temporarily suspend your ability to sell shares if the Fund’s liquidity falls below required minimums because of market conditions or other factors. An investment in the Fund is not a deposit of a bank  or its affiliates and is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. The Fund’s sponsor has no legal obligation to provide financial support to the Fund, and you should not expect that the sponsor will provide financial support to the Fund at any time. The Fund is primarily subject to the risks briefly summarized below.
Market Risk. The values of, and/or the income generated by, securities held by the Fund may decline due to general market conditions or other factors, including those directly involving the issuers of such securities. Securities markets are volatile and may decline significantly in response to adverse issuer, regulatory, political, or economic developments. Different sectors of the market and different security types may react differently to such developments.
Money Market Fund Risk. The Fund’s yield will change based on changes in interest rates and other market conditions. Because the Fund invests in short-term instruments, the Fund’s dividend yields are expected to be low when short-term market interest rates are low, and there is no guarantee that the Fund will not have a negative yield.
Debt Securities Risk. Debt securities are subject to credit risk and interest rate risk. Credit risk is the possibility that the issuer or guarantor of a debt security may be unable, or perceived to be unable or unwilling, to pay interest or repay principal when they become due. In these instances, the value of an investment could decline and the Fund could lose money. Credit risk increases as an issuer’s credit quality or financial strength declines. Interest rate risk is the possibility that interest rates will change over time. When interest rates rise, the value of debt securities tends to fall. The longer the terms of the debt securities held by a Fund, the more the Fund is subject to this risk. If interest rates decline, interest that the Fund is able to earn on its investments in debt securities may also decline, which could cause the Fund to reduce the dividends it pays to shareholders, but the value of those securities may increase. Very low or negative interest rates may magnify interest rate risk.
Industry Concentration Risk. A Fund that concentrates its investments in an industry or group of industries is more vulnerable to adverse market, economic, regulatory, political or other developments affecting such industry or group of industries than a fund that invests its assets more broadly.
Foreign Investment Risk. Foreign investments may be subject to lower liquidity, greater price volatility and risks related to adverse political, regulatory, market or economic developments. Foreign investments may involve exposure to changes in foreign currency exchange rates and may be subject to higher withholding and other taxes.
Management Risk. Investment decisions,  techniques, analyses or models implemented by a Fund’s manager or sub-adviser in seeking to achieve the Fund’s investment objective may not produce expected returns, may cause the Fund’s shares to lose value or may cause the Fund to underperform other funds with similar investment objectives.
Mortgage- and Asset-Backed Securities Risk. Mortgage- and asset-backed securities may decline in value and become less liquid when defaults on the underlying mortgages or assets occur and may exhibit additional volatility in periods of rising interest rates. Rising interest rates tend to extend the duration of these securities, making them more sensitive to changes in interest rates than instruments with fixed payment schedules. When interest rates decline or are low, the prepayment of mortgages or assets underlying such securities can reduce a Fund’s returns.

Municipal Securities Risk. Municipal securities may be fully or partially backed or enhanced by the taxing authority of a local government, by the current or anticipated revenues from a specific project or specific assets, or by the credit of, or liquidity enhancement provided by, a private issuer. Various types of municipal securities are often related in such a way that political, economic or business developments affecting one obligation could affect other municipal securities held by a Fund.
Repurchase Agreement Risk. In the event that the counterparty to a repurchase agreement is unwilling or unable to fulfill its contractual obligations to repurchase the underlying security, a Fund may lose money, suffer delays, or incur costs arising from holding or selling the underlying security.
U.S. Government Obligations Risk. U.S. Government obligations may be adversely impacted by changes in interest rates, and securities issued or guaranteed by U.S. Government agencies or government-sponsored entities may not be backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government. U.S. Government obligations may be adversely affected by a default by, or decline in the credit quality, of the U.S. Government.

Description of Principal Investment Risks
Understanding the risks involved in fund investing will help you make an informed decision that takes into account your risk tolerance and preferences. The risks that are most likely to have a material effect on a particular Fund  as a whole are called “principal risks.” The principal risks for  each  Fund have been previously identified and are described below (in alphabetical order). Additional information about the principal risks is included in the Statement of Additional Information.
Debt Securities Risk. Debt securities are subject to credit risk and interest rate risk. Credit risk is the possibility that the issuer or guarantor of a debt security may be unable, or perceived to be unable or unwilling, to pay interest or repay principal when they become due. In these instances, the value of an investment could decline and the Fund could lose money. Credit risk increases as an issuer’s credit quality or financial strength declines. The credit quality of a debt security may deteriorate rapidly and cause significant deterioration in the Fund’s net asset value. Interest rate risk is the possibility that interest rates will change over time. When interest rates rise, the value of debt securities tends to fall. The longer the terms of the debt securities held by a Fund, the more the Fund is subject to this risk. If interest rates decline, interest that the Fund is able to earn on its investments in debt securities may also decline, which could cause the Fund to reduce the dividends it pays to shareholders, but the value of those securities may increase. Some debt securities give the issuers the option to call, redeem or prepay the securities before their maturity dates. If an issuer calls, redeems or prepays a debt security during a time of declining interest rates, the Fund might have to reinvest the proceeds in a security offering a lower yield, and therefore might not benefit from any increase in value as a result of declining interest rates. Very low or negative interest rates may magnify interest rate risk. Changing interest rates, including rates that fall below zero, may have unpredictable effects on markets, may result in heightened market volatility and may detract from Fund performance to the extent the Fund is exposed to such interest rates. Interest rate changes and their impact on the Fund and its share price can be sudden and unpredictable. Changes in market conditions and government policies may lead to periods of heightened volatility in the debt securities market, reduced liquidity Fund investments and an increase in Fund redemptions.
Foreign Investment Risk. Foreign investments may be subject to lower liquidity, greater price volatility and risks related to adverse political, regulatory, market or economic developments. Foreign companies may be subject to significantly higher levels of taxation than U.S. companies, including potentially confiscatory levels of taxation, thereby reducing the earnings potential of such foreign companies. Foreign investments may involve exposure to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Such changes may reduce the U.S. dollar value of the investments. Foreign investments may be subject to additional risks, such as potentially higher withholding and other taxes, and may also be subject to greater trade settlement, custodial, and other operational risks than domestic investments. Certain foreign markets may also be characterized by less stringent investor protection and disclosure standards.
Industry Concentration Risk. A Fund that concentrates its investments in an industry or group of industries is more vulnerable to adverse market, economic, regulatory, political or other developments affecting such industry or group of industries than a fund that invests its assets more broadly.
Management Risk. Investment decisions, techniques, analyses or models implemented by a Fund’s manager or sub-adviser in seeking to achieve the Fund’s investment objective may not produce the returns expected, may cause the Fund’s shares to lose value or may cause the Fund to underperform other funds with similar investment objectives.
Market Risk. The values of, and/or the income generated by, securities held by a Fund may decline due to general market conditions or other factors, including those directly involving the issuers of such securities. Securities markets are volatile and may decline significantly in response to adverse issuer, regulatory, political, or economic developments. Different sectors of the market and different security types may react differently to such developments. Political, geopolitical, natural and other events, including war, terrorism, trade disputes, government shutdowns, market closures, inflation, natural and environmental disasters, epidemics, pandemics and other public health crises and related events have led, and in the future may lead, to economic uncertainty, decreased economic activity, increased market volatility and other disruptive effects on U.S. and global economies and markets. Such events may have significant adverse direct or indirect effects on a Fund and its investments. In addition, economies and financial markets throughout the world are becoming increasingly interconnected, which increases the likelihood that events or conditions in one country or region will adversely impact markets or issuers in other countries or regions.
Money Market Fund Risk. The Fund’s yield will change based on changes in interest rates and other market conditions. Because the Fund invests in short-term instruments, the Fund’s dividend yields are expected to be low when short-term market interest rates are low, and there is no guarantee that the Fund will not have a negative yield.
Mortgage- and Asset-Backed Securities Risk. Mortgage- and asset-backed securities are subject to risk of default on the underlying mortgages or assets, particularly during periods of economic downturn. Defaults on the underlying

8 Institutional Money Market Funds

 
Back to Table of Contents
mortgages or assets may cause such securities to decline in value and become less liquid. Rising interest rates tend to extend the duration of these securities, making them more sensitive to changes in interest rates than instruments with fixed payment schedules. As a result, in a period of rising interest rates, these securities may exhibit additional volatility. When interest rates decline or are low, borrowers may pay off their mortgage or other debts sooner than expected, which can reduce the returns of a Fund. Funds that may enter into mortgage dollar roll transactions are subject to the risk that the market value of the securities that are required to be repurchased in the future may decline below the agreed upon repurchase price. They also involve the risk that the party to whom the securities are sold may become insolvent, limiting a Fund’s ability to repurchase securities at the agreed upon price.
Municipal Securities Risk. Municipal securities may be fully or partially backed or enhanced by the taxing authority of a local government, by the current or anticipated revenues from a specific project or specific assets, or by the credit of, or liquidity enhancement provided by, a private issuer. Municipal securities may be difficult to obtain because of limited supply, which may increase the cost to a Fund of purchasing such securities and effectively reduce the Fund’s yield. Typically, less information is available about a municipal issuer than is available about other types of issuers. Various types of municipal securities are often related in such a way that political, economic or business developments affecting one obligation could affect other municipal securities held by the Fund. The value and liquidity of municipal securities backed by the revenue from a particular project or other source may decline if the project or other source fails to generate expected revenue. Although the Fund may strive to invest in municipal securities and other securities that pay interest that is exempt from certain taxes (such as federal taxes, federal alternative minimum tax and/or state taxes as applicable), some income earned by Fund investments may be subject to such taxes. Certain issuers of municipal securities may have the ability to call or redeem a security prior to its maturity date, which could impair Fund performance.
Repurchase Agreement Risk. In the event that the counterparty to a repurchase agreement is unwilling or unable to fulfill its contractual obligations to repurchase the underlying security, a Fund may lose money, suffer delays, or incur costs arising from holding or selling the underlying security.
U.S. Government Obligations Risk. U.S. Government obligations may be adversely impacted by changes in interest rates, and securities issued or guaranteed by U.S. Government agencies or government-sponsored entities may not be backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government. If a government-sponsored entity is unable to meet its obligations or its creditworthiness declines, the performance of a Fund that holds securities issued or guaranteed by the entity will be adversely impacted. U.S. Government obligations may be adversely affected by a default by, or decline in the credit quality, of the U.S. Government.

Portfolio Holdings Information
A description of the Allspring Funds’ policies and procedures with respect to disclosure of the Fund’s  portfolio holdings is available in the Fund’s Statement of Additional Information.
Pricing  Fund Shares
A Fund’s NAV is the value of a single share rounded to four decimal places and based on the market value of the securities it holds. The NAV is calculated each business day at the times reflected below, although a Fund may deviate from these calculation times under unusual or unexpected circumstances. The NAV is calculated separately for each class of shares of a multiple-class Fund. The last NAV calculated on the most recent business day is available at allspringglobal.com. To calculate the NAV of a Fund’s shares, the Fund’s assets are valued and totaled, liabilities are subtracted, and the balance, called net assets, is divided by the number of shares outstanding.
We calculate the NAV at the following times each business day:
Allspring Heritage Money Market Fund
9:00a.m., 12:00p.m., and 3:00p.m. (ET)
Generally, NAVs are not calculated, and purchase and redemption requests are not processed, on days that the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) is closed for trading; however under unusual or unexpected circumstances a Fund may elect to remain open even on days that the NYSE is closed or closes early. To the extent that a Fund’s assets are traded in various markets on days when the Fund is closed, the value of the Fund’s assets may be affected on days when you are unable to buy or sell Fund shares. Conversely, trading in some of a Fund’s assets may not occur on days when the Fund is open. Information on the timing of dividend accrual and settlement in connection with a purchase or redemption of shares can be found in the section of this Prospectus entitled “Buying and Selling Fund Shares.”
A Fund’s assets will be valued at the bid price provided by an independent pricing service or, if a reliable price is not available, the quoted bid price from an independent broker-dealer. We are required to depart from these general valuation methods and use fair value pricing methods to determine the values of certain investments if we believe that a closing price or the quoted bid price of a security, including a security that trades primarily on a foreign exchange, does not accurately reflect its current market value at the time as of which a Fund calculates its NAV. The closing price or the quoted bid price of a security may not reflect is current market value if, among other things, a significant event occurs after the closing price or quoted bid price but before the time as of which a Fund calculates its NAV that materially affects the value of the security. We use various criteria, including a systemic evaluation of U.S. market moves after the close of foreign markets in deciding whether a foreign security’s market price is still reliable and, if not, what fair market value to assign to the security. In addition, we use fair value pricing to determine the value of investments in securities and other assets, including illiquid securities, for which current market quotations or evaluated prices from a pricing service or broker-dealer are not readily available.
The fair value of a Fund’s securities and other assets is determined in good faith pursuant to policies and procedures approved by the Fund’s Board of Trustees. In light of the judgment involved in making fair value decisions, there can be no assurance that a fair value assigned to a particular security is accurate or that it reflects the price that the Fund could obtain for such security if it were to sell the security at the time as of which fair value pricing is determined. Such fair value pricing may result in NAVs that are higher or lower than NAVs based on the closing price or quoted bid price. See the Statement of Additional Information for additional details regarding the determination of NAVs.

The Additional Payments may create potential conflicts of interest between an investor and a financial professional or intermediary who is recommending or making available a particular mutual fund over other mutual funds. Before investing, you should consult with your financial professional and review carefully any disclosure by the intermediary as to what compensation the intermediary receives from mutual fund sponsors, as well as how your financial professional is compensated.
The Additional Payments are typically paid in fixed dollar amounts, based on the number of customer accounts maintained by an intermediary, or based on a percentage of sales and/or assets under management, or a combination of the above. The Additional Payments are either up-front or ongoing or both and differ among intermediaries. In a given year, Additional Payments to an intermediary that is compensated based on its customers’ assets typically range between 0.02% and 0.25% of assets invested in a Fund by the intermediary’s customers. Additional Payments to an intermediary that is compensated based on a percentage of sales typically range between 0.10% and 0.25% of the gross sales of a Fund attributable to the financial intermediary.

The amount (in dollars or shares) and type (purchase or redemption) of the request;
 
If by mail, the signature of each registered owner as it appears in the account application;

Back to Table of Contents
is to be made via any other method (such as by check or EFT) will be processed at the final NAV calculated on the business day on which the Fund’s transfer agent receives your request. If your request is not in good order, additional documentation may be required to process your transaction. We reserve the right to waive any of the above requirements. Please note that the Funds no longer permit financial intermediaries (including retirement plan administrators) to serve as their agent for purposes of determining the time a purchase or redemption request is received.
1. The Fund’s shares may be purchased through an intermediary that has entered into a dealer agreement with the Fund’s distributor. The Fund has approved the acceptance of a purchase or redemption request effective as of the time of its receipt by such an authorized intermediary or its designee, as long as the request is received by one of those entities prior to the Fund’s closing time. These intermediaries may charge transaction fees. We reserve the right to adjust the closing time in certain circumstances.
Medallion Guarantee. A Medallion Guarantee is only required for a mailed redemption request under the following circumstances: (1) if the address on your account was changed within the last 15 days; (2) if the amount of the redemption request exceeds $100,000 and is to be paid to a bank account that is not currently on file with Allspring Funds or if all of the owners of your Allspring Fund  account are not included in the registration of the bank account provided; or (3) if the redemption request proceeds are to be paid to a third party. You can get a Medallion Guarantee at a financial institution such as a bank or brokerage house. We do not accept notarized signatures.
Payment. Payment for Fund shares may be made as follows:
By Wire
Purchases into a new or existing account may be funded by using the following wire instructions:

State Street Bank & Trust
Boston, MA
Bank Routing Number: ABA 011000028
Wire Purchase Account: 9905-437-1
Attention: Allspring Funds
(Name of Fund, Account Number and any applicable share class)
Account Name: Provide your name as registered on the Fund account or as included in your account application.
By Check
Make checks payable to Allspring Funds.
By Electronic Funds Transfer (“EFT”)
Additional purchases for existing accounts may be funded by EFT using your linked bank account.
All payments must be in U.S. dollars, and all checks and EFTs must be drawn on U.S. banks. You will be charged a $25.00 fee for every check or EFT that is returned to us as unpaid. Please note that, if you are paying for Fund shares via wire, the Fund must receive “federal funds” by the close of the Federal Reserve wire transfer system (“Fedwire”) (normally, 6:00 p.m. ET) on the same business day your purchase order is processed. In the event that payment is not received by the Fund by the close of the Fedwire, the Fund reserves the right to cancel your purchase order and you will be liable for any resulting losses or fees incurred by the Fund or the Fund’s transfer agent.
Timing of Redemption Proceeds. Generally, requests for redemption proceeds by check or EFT that are received in good order will be sent out by the next business day after receipt and will earn a dividend until the day such proceeds are sent.
Generally, requests for redemption proceeds by wire that are received in good order will be processed and earn dividends as listed in the table below.
If a Request is Received in Good Order:
Proceeds Wired

Heritage Money Market Fund
  • By 3:00 p.m. (ET)

1. Please note that while we will make every effort to wire your redemption proceeds on the same business day, same day settlement is not guaranteed.
Please note that if you wish to redeem shares purchased by check or EFT within seven days of purchase, you may be asked to resubmit your redemption request if your payment has not yet cleared.

Form of Redemption Proceeds. You may request that your redemption proceeds be sent to you by check, by EFT into a linked bank account, or by wire to a linked bank account. Please call Investor Services at 1-800-222-8222 regarding the requirements for linking bank accounts or for wiring funds. Under normal circumstances, we expect to meet redemption requests either by using uninvested cash or cash equivalents or by using the proceeds from the sale of portfolio securities, at the discretion of the portfolio manager(s). The Allspring Funds may also borrow through a bank line of credit for the purpose of meeting redemption requests, although we do not expect to draw funds from this source on a regular basis. In lieu of making cash payments, we reserve the right to determine in our sole discretion, including under stressed market conditions, whether to satisfy redemption requests by making payments in securities. In such cases, we may meet all or part of a redemption request by making payment in securities equal in value to the amount of the redemption payable to you as permitted under the 1940 Act, and the rules thereunder, in which case the redeeming shareholder should expect to incur transaction costs upon the disposition of any securities received.
Right to Delay Payment. We can delay the payment of a redemption for longer than one day if there is a non-routine closure of the Fedwire or Federal Reserve Bank or under extraordinary circumstances. For each Fund, we may also suspend redemptions if the Fund experiences significantly impaired liquidity. Please see the section entitled “Liquidity Fees and Redemption Gates” below for further information.
Under the extraordinary circumstances discussed under Section 22(e) under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, we may suspend the right of redemption or postpone the date of payment of a redemption for longer than one day.  Generally, those extraordinary circumstances are when: (i) the New York Stock Exchange is closed or trading thereon is restricted; (ii) an emergency exists which makes the disposal by a Fund of securities it owns, or the fair determination of the value of the Fund’s net assets not reasonable practical; or (iii) the SEC, by order, permits the suspension of the right of redemption for the protection of shareholders.
Liquidity Fees and Redemption Gates. If a Fund’s weekly liquid assets (as defined in Rule 2a-7(34)) fall below 30% of its total assets, the Fund may institute a liquidity fee on redemptions of up to 2% of the value of shares redeemed and/or may impose a redemption gate (i.e., a suspension of the right to redeem), if the Board determines that doing so would be in the best interests of the Fund and its shareholders. A liquidity fee and/or a redemption gate imposed under these circumstances may be implemented intraday. The Board may determine to raise or lower such liquidity fee after it has been imposed, but the liquidity fee may not exceed 2% of the value of shares redeemed.
If at the end of a business day, a Fund’s weekly liquid assets fall below 10% of its total assets, the Fund must institute a liquidity fee, effective as of the next business day, of 1% of the value of shares redeemed, unless the Board determines that imposing the fee is not in the best interests of the Fund or determines that a lower or higher liquidity fee (subject to the 2% limit) is in the best interests of the Fund.
A liquidity fee and/or redemption gate may be implemented prior to giving notice to shareholders or intermediaries. It is expected that notice will be given through a supplement to the Fund’s prospectuses and by posting to the Fund’s website. A Fund may further communicate such action through a press release or by other means. The lifting of a liquidity fee or redemption gate will be communicated through similar means.
Any redemption request received by the Fund’s transfer agent  in good order prior to the effectiveness of a liquidity fee or redemption gate will not be subject to such fee or gate. If a shareholder submits a redemption request while a redemption gate is in place, such request will be canceled and the shareholder will need to submit a new request following the lifting of the gate in order to redeem shares. When a fee or a gate is in place, a Fund will not allow purchases.
Once imposed, a liquidity fee must be applied to all shares redeemed and will remain in effect until the Board determines that imposing a fee is no longer in the best interests of the Fund; provided however that, if at the end of a business day, the Fund’s weekly liquid assets have risen to 30% or more of its total assets, the Fund must cease charging the liquidity fee, effective at the beginning of the next business day. While in effect, any liquidity fees collected by the Fund will be used to help increase the Fund’s weekly liquid assets.
Once imposed, a redemption gate must apply to all shares and will remain in effect until the Board determines that the redemption gate is no longer in the best interests of the Fund, provided, however, that the Fund must restore right of redemption on the earlier of: (1) the beginning of the next business day following a business day that ended with the Fund having invested 30% or more of its total assets in weekly liquid assets; or (2) the beginning of the next business day following 10 business days after suspending redemptions. A Fund may not impose a redemption gate for more than 10 business days in any rolling 90 calendar day period.
Please note that the Board may, in its discretion, elect to permanently suspend redemptions and liquidate a Fund under certain circumstances, including, among other things, if a Fund’s weekly liquid assets fall below 10% of its total assets.

Exchanging Fund Shares
Shareholders of the Funds are not eligible to exchange their shares for shares of another class of the same Fund or for shares of another Allspring Fund.
Frequent Purchases and Redemptions of Fund Shares
Excessive trading by Fund shareholders can negatively impact a Fund and its long-term shareholders by increasing expenses or lowering returns. However, money market funds, which are typically utilized by investors for cash management purposes and invest in highly liquid securities, are not as susceptible to these negative effects as non-money market Funds.
Although the policies adopted by the Fund do not prohibit frequent trading between money market Funds, Allspring Funds Management will seek to prevent an investor from utilizing a money market Fund to facilitate frequent purchases and redemptions of shares in non-money market Funds. If Allspring Funds Management determines that an investor has engaged in timing activities in contravention of the Fund’s policies (as described in the prospectus for the non-money market Fund), Allspring Funds Management will prevent such investor from investing in the non-money market Fund for a period of 30 calendar days.
In addition, Allspring Funds Management reserves the right to accept purchases, redemptions and exchanges made in excess of applicable trading restrictions in designated accounts held by Allspring Funds Management or its affiliate that are used at all times exclusively for addressing operational matters related to shareholder accounts, such as testing of account functions, and are maintained at low balances that do not exceed specified dollar amount limitations.
Account Policies
Advance Notice of Large Transactions.
We strongly urge you to begin all purchases and redemptions as early in the day as possible and to notify us at least one day in advance of transactions in excess of $50,000,000. This will allow us to manage your Fund most effectively. When you give us this advance notice, you must provide us with your name and account number.
Householding. To help keep Fund expenses low, a single copy of a Prospectus or shareholder report may be sent to shareholders of the same household. If your household currently receives a single copy of a Prospectus or shareholder report and you would prefer to receive multiple copies, please call Investor Services at 1-800-222-8222 or contact your financial professional.
Retirement Accounts.
We offer a variety of retirement account types for individuals and small businesses. There may be special distribution requirements for a retirement account, such as required distributions or mandatory Federal income tax withholdings. For more information about the retirement accounts listed below, including any distribution requirements, call Investor Services at 1-800-222-8222. For retirement accounts held directly with a Fund, certain fees may apply including an annual account maintenance fee. The retirement accounts available for individuals and small businesses are:
Individual Retirement Accounts, including Traditional IRAs and Roth IRAs.
 
Small business retirement accounts, including Simple IRAs and SEP IRAs.
 
Small Account Redemptions.
We reserve the right to redeem accounts that have values that fall below a Fund’s minimum initial investment amount due to shareholder redemptions (as opposed to market movement). Before doing so, we will give you approximately 60 days to bring your account value above the Fund’s minimum initial investment amount. Please call Investor Services at 1-800-222-8222 or contact your financial professional for further details.
Transaction Authorizations.
We may accept telephone, electronic, and clearing agency transaction instructions from anyone who represents that he or she is a shareholder and provides reasonable confirmation of his or her identity. Neither we nor Allspring Funds will be liable for any losses incurred if we follow such instructions we reasonably believe to be genuine. For transactions through our website, we may assign personal identification numbers (PINs) and you will need to create a login ID and password for account access. To safeguard your account, please keep these credentials confidential. Contact us immediately if you believe there is a discrepancy on your confirmation statement or if you believe someone has obtained unauthorized access to your online access credentials.

Identity Verification.
We are required by law to obtain from you certain personal information that will be used to verify your identity. If you do not provide the information, we will not be able to open your account. In the rare event that we are unable to verify your identity as required by law, we reserve the right to redeem your account at the current NAV of the Fund’s shares. You will be responsible for any losses, taxes, expenses, fees, or other results of such a redemption.
Right to Freeze Accounts, Suspend Account Services or Reject or Terminate an Investment.
We reserve the right, to the extent permitted by law and/or regulations, to freeze any account or suspend account services when we have received reasonable notice (written or otherwise) of a dispute between registered or beneficial account owners or when we believe a fraudulent transaction may occur or has occurred. Additionally, we reserve the right to reject any  purchase request and to terminate a shareholder’s investment, including closing the shareholder’s account.
Distributions
The Fund declares distributions of net investment income, if any,  daily, and make such distributions, if any,  monthly. The Fund generally makes distributions of realized net capital gains, if any,  annually. Your distributions will be automatically reinvested in additional shares, unless you or your Institution directs otherwise. Your other options are to receive checks for these payments, have them automatically invested in the same class of another Allspring Fund, or have them deposited into your bank account. With the check payment option, if checks remain uncashed for six months or are undeliverable by the Post Office, we will reinvest the distributions at the earliest date possible, and future distributions will be automatically reinvested.  To change your current option for payment of distributions, please contact your institution.
Earning Distributions. Assuming the purchase amount is received by the Fund’s custodian no later than the close of the Fedwire, which is normally 6:00p.m. (ET), dividends will accrue as follows:
If a Request is Received in Good Order:
Dividends Begin to Accrue:

Other Information
Taxes
The following discussion regarding income taxes is based on laws that were in effect as of the date of this Prospectus and summarizes only some of the important federal and state income tax considerations affecting the Fund and you as a shareholder. It does not apply to foreign or tax-exempt shareholders or those holding Fund shares through a tax-advantaged account, such as a 401(k) Plan or IRA. This discussion is not intended as a substitute for careful tax planning. You should consult your tax adviser about your specific tax situation. Please see the Statement of Additional Information for additional federal income tax information.
We will pass on to a Fund’s shareholders substantially all of the Fund’s net investment income and realized net capital gains, if any. Distributions of a Fund’s ordinary income, if any, generally will be taxable to you as ordinary income. Although the Fund does not expect to realize any capital gain, distributions of a Fund’s net short-term capital gain, if any, generally will be taxable to you as long-term capital gain.
Corporate shareholders should not expect to deduct a portion of their distributions when determining their taxable income. In general, distributions also will not qualify for reductions in federal income taxation of dividends payable to individuals from certain domestic and foreign corporations.
Distributions from a Fund normally will be taxable to you when paid, whether you take distributions in cash or automatically reinvest them in additional Fund shares. Following the end of each year, we will notify you of the federal income tax status of your distributions for the year.
Individual taxpayers are subject to tax on ordinary income at a maximum rate of 37% and  the maximum tax rate on long-term capital gains and qualified dividends is 20%. For U.S. individuals with income exceeding $200,000 ($250,000 if married and filing jointly), a 3.8% Medicare contribution tax applies on “net investment income,” including interest, dividends, and capital gains. Corporations are subject to tax on all income and gains at a tax rate of 21%.
In certain circumstances, Fund shareholders may be subject to back-up withholding taxes.
When you redeem your shares from a Fund with a floating NAV, you may recognize a taxable gain or loss on the redemption of your Fund shares.

There is some degree of uncertainty with respect to the tax treatment of liquidity fees received by money market funds, and such tax treatment may be the subject of future guidance issued by the Internal Revenue Service. If a Fund receives liquidity fees, it will consider the appropriate tax treatment of such fees to the Fund at such time.
