Materials Index Fund

A. Security Valuation: Securities are valued as of the close of trading on the New York Stock
Exchange (generally 4 p.m., Eastern time) on the valuation date. Equity securities are valued at the
latest quoted sales prices or official closing prices taken from the primary market in which each
security trades; such securities not traded on the valuation date are valued at the mean of the latest
quoted bid and asked prices. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available, or
whose values have been materially affected by events occurring before the fund's pricing time but
after the close of the securities’ primary markets, are valued by methods deemed by the board of
trustees to represent fair value. Investments in Vanguard Market Liquidity Fund are valued at that
fund's net asset value.

B. Swap Contracts: The fund has entered into equity swap contracts to earn the total return on
selected reference stocks in the fund's target index. Under the terms of the swaps, the fund receives
the total return on the referenced stock (i.e., receiving the increase or paying the decrease in value of
the selected reference stock and receiving the equivalent of any dividends in respect of the selected
referenced stock) over a specified period of time, applied to a notional amount that represents the
value of a designated number of shares of the selected reference stock at the beginning of the equity
swap contract. The fund also pays a floating rate that is based on short-term interest rates, applied to
the notional amount. At the same time, the fund generally invests an amount approximating the
notional amount of the swap in high-quality temporary cash investments.

The notional amounts of swap contracts are not recorded in the Schedule of Investments. Swaps are
valued daily based on market quotations received from independent pricing services or recognized
dealers and the change in value is recorded as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) until termination
of the swap, at which time realized gain (loss) is recorded.

A risk associated with all types of swaps is the possibility that a counterparty may default on its
obligation to pay net amounts due to the fund. The fund's maximum amount subject to counterparty
risk is the unrealized appreciation on the swap contract. The fund mitigates its counterparty risk by
entering into swaps only with a diverse group of prequalified counterparties, monitoring their financial
strength, entering into master netting arrangements with its counterparties, and requiring its
counterparties to transfer collateral as security for their performance. In the absence of a default, the
collateral pledged or received by the fund cannot be repledged, resold, or rehypothecated. In the
event of a counterparty’s default (including bankruptcy), the fund may terminate any swap contracts
with that counterparty, determine the net amount owed by either party in accordance with its master
netting arrangements, and sell or retain any collateral held up to the net amount owed to the fund
under the master netting arrangements. The swap contracts contain provisions whereby a
counterparty may terminate open contracts if the fund's net assets decline below a certain level,
triggering a payment by the fund if the fund is in a net liability position at the time of the termination.
The payment amount would be reduced by any collateral the fund has pledged. Any securities
pledged as collateral for open contracts are noted in the Schedule of Investments. The value of
collateral received or pledged is compared daily to the value of the swap contracts exposure with
each counterparty, and any difference, if in excess of a specified minimum transfer amount, is
adjusted and settled within two business days.

C. Various inputs may be used to determine the value of the fund's investments. These inputs are
summarized in three broad levels for financial statement purposes. The inputs or methodologies used
to value securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those
securities.

Level 1—Quoted prices in active markets for identical securities.
Level 2—Other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest
rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).


 

Materials Index Fund

Level 3—Significant unobservable inputs (including the fund's own assumptions used to determine
the fair value of investments). Any investments valued with significant unobservable inputs are noted
on the Schedule of Investments.

The following table summarizes the market value of the fund's investments as of May 31, 2019, based
on the inputs used to value them:
