Important Information to Help You Understand and Vote on the Proposal – Questionsand Answers

The following questions and answers provide an overview of the matters on which you are being asked to vote. The accompanying Joint Proxy Statement contains more detailed information about each proposal, and we encourage you to read it in its entirety before voting. Your vote is important.

Q:	What is the purpose of this proxy solicitation?
A:	The purpose of this proxy solicitation is to ask the respective Shareholders of each of the Funds to approve a<br>change to each Fund’s sub-classification under the Investment Company Act of 1940 (“1940 Act”) from “diversified” to<br>“non-diversified” and to eliminate any related fundamental investment restriction for each applicable Fund. The term “Shareholder” includes variable contract owners for the VIT U.S.<br>Equity Insights Fund. You are only being asked to vote on the Fund(s) of which you hold shares.
---	---

QUESTION SPECIFIC TO PROPOSAL 1— TO APPROVE A CHANGE TO THE FUNDS’ SUB-CLASSIFICATION UNDER THE 1940 ACT FROM “DIVERSIFIED” TO “NON-DIVERSIFIED.”

Q:	Why am I being asked to approve a change to thesub-classification of my Fund(s) from diversified to non-diversified?
A:	Each Fund is currently sub-classified as a “diversified”<br>fund for purposes of Section 5(b)(1) of the 1940 Act. As a diversified fund, each Fund is generally limited as to the amount it may invest in any single issuer.
---	---

The Board of Trustees of each applicable Fund has approved a change to each Fund’s sub-classification under the 1940 Act to a “non-diversified” company and to eliminate any related fundamental investment restriction. This change is subject to Shareholder approval of each Fund, with Shareholders of each respective Fund voting separately on a Fund-by-Fund basis. Changing a Fund’s status to non-diversified would provide Goldman Sachs Asset Management, L.P., the Fund’s investment adviser, with enhanced flexibility to invest a greater portion of the Fund’s assets in individual issuers. Market appreciation among issuers in certain industry segments has expanded their market capitalizations, increasing their weightings in major stock benchmarks. Given the weightings of the largest holdings in the Funds’ respective benchmarks and the appreciation of the Funds’ largest holdings, the portfolio managers of each Fund believe that it is important to have flexibility to continue to invest in these holdings, and that they will be better able to execute each Fund’s investment strategy and other policies with this additional flexibility. For example, due to the limitations imposed on a diversified fund’s investments in any one issuer, a Fund may be prevented from adding to its positions in certain stocks that the portfolio managers might view favorably. Shareholders may benefit from the flexibility afforded to non-diversified funds to place additional investments in certain issuers.

Shareholders should note that if Proposal 1 is approved for any Fund, that particular Fund, as a non-diversified fund, would be more susceptible to adverse developments affecting any single issuer held in its portfolio to the extent that the Fund accumulates a larger position in that issuer, and would be more susceptible to greater losses because of these developments. This is because, as a non-diversified fund, that Fund would be permitted to invest a greater percentage of its assets in one or more issuers or in fewer issuers than diversified funds. Shareholders should note that if Proposal 1 is not approved for a Fund, that Fund will remain “diversified” and remain subject to any related fundamental investment restriction.

GENERAL QUESTIONS

Q:	What are the Boards’ recommendations?
A:	The Board of each Fund unanimously recommends that the respective Shareholders of each Fund vote<br>“FOR” Proposal 1.
---	---

iv

Q:	What happens if the Shareholders of any Fund do not approve Proposal 1?
A:	If a Fund’s Shareholders do not approve Proposal 1, the Board of that Fund will take such actions as it<br>deems necessary or appropriate in the best interests of the respective Fund’s Shareholders based on the facts and circumstances.
---	---

Shareholders of each respective Fund will be voting separately on a Fund-by-Fund basis. If one Fund’s Shareholders do not approve Proposal 1, that will not impact any other Fund whose Shareholders approve Proposal 1 for that Fund. You are only being asked to vote on the Fund(s) of which you hold shares.

Q.	Will my vote make a difference?
A.	Yes! Your vote is needed to ensure that the Proposal can be acted upon. We encourage all Shareholders to<br>participate in the governance of their Fund(s). Additionally, your immediate response on the enclosed proxy card or voting instruction form, on the Internet or over the phone, each as discussed immediately below, will help save the costs of any<br>further solicitations. Your vote is important!
---	---
Q:	How can I vote?
---	---
A:	Shareholders and variable contract owners can vote in any one of four ways:
---	---
•	By mailing the enclosed proxy card or voting instruction form after signing and dating;
---	---
•	Over the Internet by going to the website indicated on your proxy card or voting instruction form;<br>
---	---
•	By telephone, with a toll free call to the number on your proxy card or voting instruction form; or<br>

---	---

After careful consideration, the Board of each applicable Fund unanimously recommends that Shareholdersvote “FOR” Proposal 1 with respect to your Fund(s).

The Meeting will be a virtual meeting conducted exclusively via live webcast starting at 11 a.m. (Eastern Time). You will be able to attend the Meeting online, submit your questions during the Meeting and vote your shares electronically. To participate in the Meeting, Shareholders must register in advance by visiting https://www.viewproxy.com/goldmansachs/broadridgevsm/ and submitting the required information to Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. (“Broadridge”), the Funds’ proxy solicitor and tabulator.

Shareholders whose shares are registered directly with a Fund in the Shareholder’s name will be asked to submit their name and control number found on the Shareholder’s proxy card in order to register to participate in and vote at the Meeting. Shareholders whose shares are held by a broker, bank or other nominee must first obtain a “legal proxy” from the applicable nominee/record holder, who will then provide the Shareholder with a newly-

1

issued control number. We note that obtaining a legal proxy may take several days. Requests for registration should be received no later than 5 p.m. (Eastern Time) on June 11, 2026, but in any event must be received by the scheduled time for commencement of the Meeting. Once Shareholders have obtained a new control number, they must visit https://www.viewproxy.com/goldmansachs/broadridgevsm/ and submit their name and newly issued control number in order to register to participate in and vote at the Meeting.

After Shareholders have submitted their registration information, they will receive an email from Broadridge that confirms that their registration request has been received and is under review by Broadridge. Once a Shareholder’s registration request has been accepted, the Shareholder will receive (i) an email containing an event link and dial-in information to attend the Meeting, and (ii) an email with a password to enter at the event link in order to access the Meeting. Shareholders may vote before or during the Meeting at www.proxyvote.com. Only Shareholders of a Fund present virtually or by proxy will be able to vote, or otherwise exercise the powers of a Shareholder, at the Meeting.

This Joint Proxy Statement is also being furnished by certain life insurance companies (the “Life Companies”) to owners, annuitants or beneficiaries of variable life insurance and variable annuity contracts (“variable contracts”) issued by a Life Company and having contract assets on the record date allocated to a separate account of a Life Company that has invested in shares of the VIT U.S. Equity Insights Fund (an “Account”). Shareholders and variable contract owners are referred to herein collectively as “Shareholders,” unless otherwise specified.

The Trustees have fixed the close of business on March 16, 2026, as the record date for the determination of Shareholders entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the Meeting (the “Record Date”). Shareholders of record of the respective Funds on the Record Date are entitled to one vote per share at the Meeting. Exhibit A to this Joint Proxy Statement sets forth the number of shares of beneficial interest of each Fund outstanding as of the Record Date. Exhibit B to this Joint Proxy Statement sets forth the persons who owned beneficially more than 5% of any class of the Funds as of February 27, 2026.

Each Life Company hereby solicits and agrees to vote the shares of the VIT U.S. Equity Insights Fund at the Meeting, and, as applicable, in accordance with timely instructions received from persons entitled to give voting instructions under variable contracts issued by it and having contract values allocated to one of its Accounts invested in shares of the VIT U.S. Equity Insights Fund. As a variable contract owner of record at the close of business on the Record Date, you have the right to instruct the Life Company that issued your contract as to the manner in which shares of the VIT U.S. Equity Insights Fund attributable to your contract should be voted. The Life Companies will vote shares attributable to variable contracts as to which proxy cards or voting instruction forms are neither executed nor returned in proportion (“for,” “against” or “abstain”) to those shares for which instructions are received. As a result, a small number of variable contract owners could determine the outcome of the vote if other owners fail to vote.

The Funds’ officers, and personnel of the Funds’ investment adviser and transfer agent and any authorized proxy solicitation agent, may also solicit proxies by telephone, facsimile, Internet or in person. If a Fund records votes through the Internet or by telephone, it will use procedures designed to authenticate Shareholders’ identities, to allow Shareholders to authorize the voting of their shares in accordance with their instructions, and to confirm that their identities have been properly recorded.

GSAM will pay the expenses associated with this Joint Proxy Statement and solicitation. The Trusts have engaged Broadridge Financial Solutions, Inc. (“Broadridge”), an independent proxy solicitation firm, to assist in the distribution of the proxy materials and the solicitation and tabulation of proxies. The cost of Broadridge’s services with respect to the solicitation is estimated to be approximately $1,698,701.38, plus reasonable out-of-pocket expenses.

To vote by mail, sign, date and promptly return the enclosed proxy card or voting instruction form in the accompanying postage pre-paid envelope. To vote by Internet or telephone, please use the control number on

TO APPROVE A CHANGE TO EACH RESPECTIVE FUND’S SUB-CLASSIFICATIONUNDER THE INVESTMENT COMPANY ACT OF 1940 FROM “DIVERSIFIED” TO “NON-DIVERSIFIED” AND TO ELIMINATE ANY RELATED FUNDAMENTAL INVESTMENT RESTRICTION FOR EACH APPLICABLE FUND

The investment objectives of the Funds and principal means by which the Funds seek to achieve their investment objectives are set forth below:

Fund	Investment Objective	Principal Strategy	Related FundamentalInvestmentRestrictions
Goldman Sachs Enhanced U.S. Equity ETF	Long-term growth of capital.	Seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets in equity securities issued by small-, mid- and large-cap U.S. companies.	The Fund may not make any investment inconsistent with the Fund’s classification as a diversified company under the 1940 Act.
Goldman Sachs S&P 500 Premium Income ETF	Seeks current income while maintaining prospects for capital appreciation.	Seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets in investments in<br>companies that are<br> <br>included in the Fund’s benchmark.	Not applicable.
Goldman Sachs Technology Opportunities ETF	Long-term growth of capital.	Seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets in equity investments in companies that are considered by GSAM to benefit from the proliferation of technology.	The Fund may not make any investment inconsistent with the Fund’s classification as a diversified company under the 1940 Act.
Goldman Sachs U.S. Tax-Managed Equity Fund	Seeks to provide long-term after-tax growth of capital through tax-sensitive participation in a broadly diversified portfolio of U.S. equity<br>securities.	Seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets in equity investments in U.S. issuers.	The Fund may not make any investment inconsistent with the Fund’s classification as a diversified company under the 1940 Act.
Goldman Sachs U.S. Equity Dividend and Premium Fund	Seeks to maximize income and total return.	Seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets in dividend-paying equity investments in large-cap U.S. issuers.	The Fund may not make any investment inconsistent with the Fund’s classification as a diversified company under the 1940 Act.

4

Goldman Sachs U.S. Equity Insights Fund	Long-term growth of capital and dividend income.	Seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets in a diversified portfolio<br>of equity<br> <br>investments in U.S. issuers.	The Fund may not make any investment inconsistent with the Fund’s classification as a diversified company under the 1940 Act.
Goldman Sachs Large Cap Equity Fund	Long-term growth of capital.	Seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets in equity securities<br>issued by large-cap<br> <br>companies.	The Fund may not make any investment inconsistent with the Fund’s classification as a diversified company under the 1940 Act.
Goldman Sachs VIT U.S. Equity Insights Fund	Long-term growth of capital and dividend income.	Seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets in a diversified portfolio of equity investments in U.S. issuers.	The Fund may not make any investment inconsistent with the Fund’s classification as a diversified company under the 1940 Act.

Each Fund is currently sub-classified as a “diversified” fund for purposes of Section 5(b)(1) of the 1940 Act. In addition, all Funds other than the S&P 500 Premium Income ETF are also subject to a related fundamental investment restriction which prohibits them from making any investment inconsistent with their classification as a diversified fund. As a diversified fund, each Fund is limited as to the amount it may invest in any single issuer. Specifically, with respect to 75% of its total assets, each Fund currently may not invest in a security if, as a result of such investment, more than 5% of its total assets (calculated at the time of purchase) would be invested in securities of any one issuer. In addition, with respect to 75% of its total assets, each Fund may not hold more than 10% of the outstanding voting securities of any one issuer. The restrictions in Section 5(b)(1) do not apply to U.S. government securities, securities of other investment companies, cash and cash items (including receivables).

Pursuant to the recommendation of the Funds’ investment adviser, GSAM, the Board of each Fund has approved a change to that Fund’s sub-classification under the 1940 Act to a “non-diversified” company and, with respect to certain Funds, to eliminate any related fundamental investment restriction. This change is subject to the Shareholder approval of each Fund, with Shareholders of each respective Fund voting separately on a Fund-by-Fund basis. Certain Funds currently have a related fundamental investment restriction (which may only be changed with shareholder approval) that provides that each such Fund, as a fundamental policy, may not “make any investment inconsistent with the Fund’s classification as a diversified company under the 1940 Act.” If this change is approved by the Shareholders of these Funds, each of these Funds will no longer be subject to the diversification limitation discussed above. If this change is not approved by the Shareholders of a Fund, that Fund will remain “diversified” and remain subject to any related fundamental investment restriction.

Changing a Fund’s status to non-diversified would provide GSAM with enhanced flexibility to invest a greater portion of the Fund’s assets in individual issuers. Market appreciation among issuers in certain industry segments has expanded their market capitalizations, increasing their weightings in major stock benchmarks. Given the weightings of the largest issuer weightings in the Funds’ respective benchmarks and the appreciation of the Funds’ largest holdings in each issuer, the portfolio managers of each Fund believe that it is important to have this additional flexibility, and that they will be better able to execute each Fund’s investment strategy and other policies with this additional flexibility. As of December 31, 2025:

•	The three largest issuer weightings in the S&P 500 Index (the benchmark for the Enhanced Equity ETF, S&P<br>500 Premium Income ETF, U.S. Equity Dividend and Premium Fund, U.S. Equity Insights

5

<br>Fund and VIT U.S. Equity Insights Fund) have a combined benchmark weight of 20.78%, and each of those three largest issuers have an individual weight greater than 5% in all such aforementioned<br>Funds
•	The four largest issuer weightings in the Russell 3000 Index (the benchmark for the U.S. Tax-Managed Equity Fund)<br>have a combined benchmark weight of 23.2%, and each of those four largest issuers have an individual weight greater than 5% in the U.S. Tax-Managed Equity Fund
---	---
•	The four largest issuer weightings in the Russell 1000 Index (the benchmark for the Large Cap Equity Fund) have a<br>combined benchmark weight of 24.27%, and each of those four largest issuers have an individual weight greater than 5% in the Large Cap Equity Fund
---	---
•	The two largest issuer weightings in the Nasdaq Composite Total Return Index (the benchmark for the Technology<br>Opportunities ETF) have a combined benchmark weight of 21.79%, and those two largest issuers have individual weights greater than 5% and 4%, respectively, in the Technology Opportunities ETF
---	---

Shareholders should note that if the change in a Fund’s sub-classification to “non-diversified” is approved, that particular Fund may be subject to additional investment risks. This is because, as a non-diversified fund, that Fund would be permitted to invest a greater percentage of its assets in one or more issuers or in fewer issuers than diversified funds. Thus, to the extent that a Fund accumulates a large position in a single issuer, that Fund would be more susceptible to adverse developments affecting such issuer held in its portfolio, and would be more susceptible to greater losses because of these developments. Accordingly, if Proposal 1 is approved by the respective Shareholders of any Fund, that Fund could be subject to greater risk than it currently is subject to as a diversified fund. The change of each Fund’s sub-classification to “non-diversified” and with respect to certain Funds, the elimination of any related fundamental investment restriction, was approved unanimously by the respective Boards of the Funds, with adoption and implementation of the new policy conditioned upon the respective Shareholder approval of each Fund.

It should be noted that, although the respective Funds would no longer be subject to the 1940 Act diversification restrictions if the respective Shareholders of each Fund, voting separately on a Fund-by-Fund basis, approve the proposal at the Meeting, each Fund intends to continue to comply with Federal tax diversification restrictions of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “IRC”). For purposes of the IRC, each Fund operates as a “regulated investment company.” Under the IRC, each Fund must diversify its holdings so that, in general, at the close of each quarter of its taxable year, (i) at least 50% of the fair market value of the Fund’s total (gross) assets is comprised of cash, cash items, U.S. government securities, securities of other regulated investment companies and other securities limited in respect of any one issuer to an amount not greater in value than 5% of the value of the Fund’s total assets and to not more than 10% of the outstanding voting securities of such issuer; and (ii) not more than 25% of the value of its total (gross) assets is invested in the securities of any one issuer (other than U.S. government securities and securities of other regulated investment companies), two or more issuers controlled by the Fund and engaged in the same, similar or related trades or businesses, or certain publicly traded partnerships. These Federal tax diversification requirements, or the Funds’ determination to comply with them, may change in the future without shareholder approval.

Shareholders should note that if the change in a Fund’s sub-classification to “non-diversified” is not approved, that Fund will remain “diversified” and remain subject to any related fundamental investment restriction. Shareholders of each respective Fund will be voting separately on a Fund-by-Fund basis. If one Fund’s Shareholders do not approve Proposal 1, that will not impact any other Fund whose Shareholders approve Proposal 1 for that Fund.

THE TRUSTEES UNANIMOUSLYRECOMMEND THAT YOU VOTE IN FAVOR OF PROPOSAL 1.

PROPOSAL 2

TO TRANSACT SUCH OTHER BUSINESS AS MAY PROPERLY COME BEFORE THE MEETING OR ANY POSTPONEMENT OR ADJOURNMENTTHEREOF

The management of the Trusts does not know of any other matters to be brought before the Meeting. If such matters are properly brought before the Meeting, proxies that do not contain specific instructions to the contrary will be voted in accordance with the judgment of the person or persons acting thereunder.

7

VOTE REQUIRED FOR THE APPROVAL OF MATTERS AT THE MEETING

A quorum for the transaction of business at the Meeting is established by the presence, in person or by proxy, of holders representing one-third of the votes entitled to be cast at the Meeting by each Fund individually, but any lesser number will be sufficient for adjournments. Each Fund must independently establish a quorum to transact business at the Meeting concerning that Fund. Proposal 1 will be voted upon by the respective Shareholders of each Fund. The adoption of Proposal 1 requires an affirmative vote of the lesser of: (i) 67% or more of the voting securities of each Fund that are present at the meeting or represented by proxy, if holders of shares representing more than 50% of the outstanding voting securities of each Fund are present or represented by proxy; or (ii) more than 50% of the outstanding voting securities of each Fund (a “1940 Act Majority”).

If a proxy card is properly executed and returned accompanied by instructions to withhold authority (an abstention), the shares represented thereby will be counted as shares present and entitled to vote for purposes of determining whether a quorum is present, but will not be counted as a vote in favor of Proposal

1. Accordingly, abstentions effectively will be a vote against Proposal 1, for which the required vote is a 1940 Act Majority. A broker non-vote occurs when a broker or nominee holding shares in “street name” indicates on the proxy card that it does not have discretionary authority to vote as to a particular proposal. Ordinarily, broker non-votes, if any, would be counted as shares present and entitled to vote for purposes of determining whether a quorum is present, but would not be counted as a vote in favor of the Proposal. However, because Proposal 1 is considered non-routine, broker non-votes are inapplicable to this solicitation and will have no impact on establishing quorum or the votes cast for or against Proposal 1.

With respect to GSVIT, Life Companies that use shares of the VIT U.S. Equity Insights Fund as investment options for their variable contracts will vote shares of the Fund held by their Accounts in accordance with the instructions received from variable contract holders. The Life Companies, which are treated as the shareholders of the VIT U.S. Equity Insights Fund, will also vote shares attributable to variable contracts as to which proxy cards or voting instruction forms are neither executed nor returned in proportion (“for,” “against” or “abstain”) to those shares for which instructions are received, even in instances where a broker would be prevented from exercising discretion. As a result, a small number of variable contract holders could determine the outcome of the vote if other variable contract holders fail to vote. A Life Company whose separate account invests in the VIT U.S. Equity Insights Fund will vote shares held by its general account and its subsidiaries in the same proportion as other votes cast by its Accounts in the aggregate.

In the event that at the time any session of the Meeting is called to order a quorum is not present in person or by proxy for any Fund, or if a quorum is present but sufficient votes in favor of a Proposal have not been received for any Fund, the Meeting may be adjourned for that Fund to a later date by the chair of the Meeting or by a vote of Shareholders of that Fund to permit further solicitation of proxies with respect to a Proposal for that Fund. In the event of a Shareholder vote on adjournment for any Fund, any such adjournment will require the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast for that Fund, and the persons named as proxies will vote those proxies which they are entitled to vote in favor of any such Proposal in favor of such an adjournment, and will vote those proxies required to be voted against any such Proposal against any such adjournment. The chair of the Meeting may adjourn the Meeting for any Fund whether or not a quorum is present. A Shareholder vote may be taken on a Proposal in this Joint Proxy Statement prior to such adjournment if sufficient votes for its approval have been received. Such vote will be considered final regardless of whether the Meeting is adjourned to permit additional solicitation with respect to any other Proposal. Subject to the foregoing, the Meeting may be adjourned and re-adjourned for one or more Funds without further notice to Shareholders or variable contract owners.

SHAREHOLDER PROPOSALS

Each Trust is not required and does not intend to hold a meeting of Shareholders each year. Instead, meetings will be held only when and if required by law or as otherwise determined by the respective Board. Any Shareholder desiring to present a proposal for consideration at the next meeting of Shareholders of their respective Fund must submit the proposal in writing, so that it is received by the appropriate Fund within a reasonable time before any meeting. The proposals should be sent to each respective Trust at its address stated on the first page of this Joint Proxy Statement.
