The Fund will issue a separate 19(a) notice at the time of each
quarterly distribution using the most current financial information
available. You should not draw any conclusions about the Fund’s
investment performance from the amount of these distributions or
from the terms of the Fund’s managed distribution plan.
The Fund estimates that it has distributed more than its income
and capital gains; therefore, a portion of your distribution may be
a return of capital. A return of capital may occur, for example,
when some or all of the money that you invested in the Fund is paid
back to you. A return of capital distribution does not necessarily
reflect the Fund’s investment performance and should not be
confused with ‘yield’ or ‘income’.
The amounts and sources of distributions reported in this notice
are only estimates and are not being provided for tax reporting
purposes. The actual amounts and sources of the amounts for tax
reporting purposes will depend upon the Fund’s investment
experience during the remainder of the fiscal year and may be
subject to changes based on tax regulations. The Fund or your
broker will send you a Form 1099-DIV for the calendar year that
will tell you how to report these distributions for federal income
tax purposes.
About the Fund
