On page 45 of the Prospectus, the first paragraph of the sub-section entitled “Portfolio Management Teams” within the section entitled “About the Funds’ Portfolio Managers” is deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:

The State Street Institutional U.S. Equity Fund is managed by a team of portfolio managers that includes Michael Solecki, Paul Nestro and Christopher Sierakowski. Mr. Nestro manages one of two sub-portfolios that comprise the Fund, while Mr. Sierakowski manages the other sub-portfolio. A sub-portfolio refers to the portion of the Fund’s assets that are allocated to, and managed (or co-managed) by, a particular portfolio manager on the Fund’s portfolio management team. One portfolio, run by Mr. Nestro, seeks to own the best ideas from the research analyst team with about 130 names and stays close to sector neutral. The other portfolio, run by Mr. Sierakowski, looks to concentrate those best ideas to only 30-40 securities and takes sector bets. The current allocation between the two sub-portfolios is 70/30 based on the desired combined portfolio characteristics and can be adjusted over time by Mr. Solecki. The two sub-portfolios are managed independently of each other and the portfolio managers have full discretion over their respective sub-portfolios.
