Forward Looking Statements

The following plan sponsor briefing contains forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are based on the

Company’s current expectations and beliefs, as well as a number of assumptions. These forward-looking statements include, but

are not limited to, adoption of Income+, enrollment rates and related risk. These statements are subject to risks, uncertainties,

assumptions and other important factors, many of which are outside the Company’s control, that could cause actual results to differ

materially from the results discussed in the forward-looking statements. You are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such

forward-looking statements because actual results may vary materially from those expressed or implied. For more information on

the risks and uncertainties affecting the Company please see our most recent SEC filings, including our Form 10-K for the year

ending December 31, 2011 and our most recent Form 10-Q.

Income+ early results presentation is for informational purposes only, and not necessarily indicative of future service usage or enrollment. Information should not be construed as

investment advice, testimonial, or as an offer of advisory services or any specific recommendation to buy, sell, or hold any investment. The report is based upon information and data we

believe to be reliable, but we do not guarantee its accuracy or completeness. Financial Engines undertakes no obligation to publicly revise and/or update such results going forward. As of

12/31/2011, eight plans, with over $19 billion in assets and nearly 300,000 participants had rolled out Income+. Early results data used in this presentation are based on five plans that had

completed full communications campaigns by 12/31/2011. Enrollment data were measured between 12/31/2011 and 3/31/2011. Two of the five plans used passive (opt-out) enrollment.

For plans already offering managed accounts, when Income+ was rolled out, current eligible managed account participants were transitioned. Reference to potential one-year loss is

based on the application of Financial Engines’ forecasting methodology. This methodology projects the likelihood of various investment outcomes that are hypothetical in nature, do not

reflect actual results or adjustment over time, and are not guaranties of future results.

Financial Engines provides advisory services through Financial Engines Advisors L.L.C., a federally registered investment adviser and wholly owned subsidiary of Financial Engines, Inc.

guarantee against loss.

Kimberly-Clark Corporation – 401(k) Plans

Number of Participants 20,400

Plan Assets $2.3 B

Actives / Inactives (% of those over age 60) 58% / 42%

and non-union)

(October 2012)

19

KC’s Retirement Plans and Benefits Philosophy

• DB pension plan frozen as of December 31, 2009 • Today, 57% of population has only DC account

• 35% of population has some form of frozen pension

• As of January 1, 2010, KC rolled out new 401(k) and profit

plan • Added several new plan features

• 401(k) and profit sharing plan needs to work for all • From those who are not interested in investing to those that are very actively

engaged

• From CEO to cafeteria worker

20

KC 401(k) and Profit Sharing Plan

• Plan features – substantial changes in recent years • Auto-enrollment for new hires, defaulted into a managed account

• Auto-deferral increases 1% per year up to 10%

– For participants that max out on pre-tax contributions, automatically flipped to

after-tax contributions

• Roth 401(k)

• Self-directed brokerage window

– About 12% of participants utilize

• Advise services:

– Online advice and professional management

– Integrated forecasts and stoplights with Aon Hewitt

• Coming in 2012 – retirement income solution

21

Why offer an in-plan retirement income solution?

• Offering an in-plan 401(k) retirement income solution helps

address a growing need • Majority of employees only have a DC plan

• Responsibility for retirement savings is much more firmly on employees today

• Income+ fills out a gap for near-retirees and retirees on how to draw income from

401(k)

• Needed a way to help provide stream of payments from 401(k)

with flexibility to take a larger amount • Help participants answer the question: “How can I take money out and make it last?”

• Quotes for out-of-plan annuities available, but unused

• Income+ an in-plan solution • Income+ is an extension of managed account

• Roll out later in 2012

Income+ and re-enrollment process

Income+ at no additional charge

• Communication campaign • Robust print materials

• Personalized retirement evaluation

• 6-week campaign, with clear deadline, ensured sufficient evaluation period

33
