Statement of Additional Information Text Changes

In the Management of the Fund(s) section under Officers and Trustees, the following replaces similar text in the paragraph about the board’s audit committee:

The Audit and Risk Committee of the board, which is composed of Sarah Bloom Raskin, Peter F. Volanakis, Tara Bunch, and Mark Loughridge, each of whom is an independent trustee, oversees the management of financial risks and controls and enterprise-wide risk management. The Audit and Risk Committee serves as the channel of communication between the independent auditors of the funds and the board with respect to financial statements and financial reporting processes, systems of internal control, and the audit process. The committee also serves as a channel of communication between risk management personnel and the board with respect to enterprise-wide risk management. Vanguard’s head of internal audit reports directly to the Audit and Risk Committee. The committee receives reports in writing and in person on a regular basis from Vanguard’s head of internal audit and Vanguard’s chief risk officer. Although the Audit and Risk Committee is responsible for overseeing the management of financial risks and enterprise-wide risk management, the entire board is regularly informed of these risks through the committee’s reports.

In the Management of the Fund(s) section under Officers and Trustees, the biographical table is replaced as follows:
