You should not draw any conclusions about a Fund’s investment performance from the amount of this distribution or from the terms of the Fund’s Distribution Policy. Each fund estimates that it has distributed more than its income and net realized 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 Funds periodically provide fund-related information on their websites.
