1.	STATUS OF INVESTMENT PORTFOLIO
(1) Diversification of Investment Portfolio
	- VANGUARD SMALL-CAP INDEX FUND (Includes All Share Classes)
	(hereinafter referred to as the "Fund")
	[See/Fill in the attached excel file]
Note 1:	Total Net Assets for Investor Shares = $ 4,546,699,168.16 as of the end of July
	2015.
Note 2:	Investment ratio is calculated by dividing each asset at its market value by the total
	Net Asset Value of the Fund. The same applies hereinafter.
Note 3:	The Yen amount is translated for convenience at the rate of $1.00 = ¥124.04 (the
	mean of the exchange rate quotations by The Bank of Tokyo UFJ - Mitsubishi, Ltd.
	for buying and selling spot U.S. Dollars by telegraphic transfer against Yen on July
	31, 2015). The same applies hereafter.
Note 4:	Since Shares are denominated in U.S. Dollars, the amounts appearing hereafter are
	all Dollar amounts unless otherwise specifically indicated.
Note 5:	In this document, money amounts and percentages have been rounded. Therefore,
	there are cases in which the amount of the “total column” is not equal to the
	aggregate amount. Also, translation into Yen is made simply by multiplying the
	corresponding amount by the conversion rate specified and rounded up when
	necessary. As a result, in this document, there are cases in which Japanese Yen
	figures for the same information differ from each other.

(iv) The contents of the portfolio (as of the end of July 2015) Fund Asset Allocation Cash 0.44% Shares 99.56%

The number of the shares	1,494
The average market capitalization	$3.4Billion Dollars
PER	29.5 x
PBR	2.5 x
ROE	11.8 %
The rate of gain	12.7 %
The fluctuation of sell and purchase	9.7 %
(as of fiscal year end December)
Cash ratio	0.1 %

(v) Risk analysis (as of the end of July 2015)
R Squared	1.00
Beta	1.00
Note 1	R Squared and Beta are calculated from trailing 36-month fund returns relative to
	the Spliced Small-Cap Index. The Spliced Small-Cap Index reflects performance of
	the Russell 2000 Index through May 16, 2003, performance of the MSCI US Small
	Cap 1750 Index through January 30, 2013, and performance of the CRSP US
	Small-Cap Index thereafter
Note 2	“R Squared” is a measure of how much of a fund’s past returns can be explained by
	the returns from the market in general, as measured by the fund’s target index
	benchmark and by an overall market index. If a fund’s total returns were precisely
	synchronized with an index’s returns, its R-Squared would be 1.00. If the fund’s
	returns bore no relationship with the index’s returns, its R-Squared would be 0.
Note 3	“Beta” is a measure of the magnitude of a fund’s past share-price fluctuations in
	relation to the ups and downs of the fund’s target index benchmark and an overall
	market index. Each index is assigned a Beta of 1.00. Compared with a given
	index, a fund with a Beta of 1.20 would have seen its share price rise or fall by 12%
	when the index rose or fell by 10%. However, a fund’s beta should be reviewed in
	conjunction with its R-squared. The lower the R-squared, the less correlation there
	is between the fund and the benchmark, and the less reliable the beta is as an
	indicator of volatility.

Note 4: Since Shares are denominated in U.S. Dollars, the amounts appearing hereafter are all Dollar amounts unless otherwise specifically indicated.

Note 5: In this document, money amounts and percentages have been rounded. Therefore, there are cases in which the amount of the “total column” is not equal to the aggregate amount. Also, translation into Yen is made simply by multiplying the corresponding amount by the conversion rate specified and rounded up when necessary. As a result, in this document, there are cases in which Japanese Yen figures for the same information differ from each other.
