Performance Table Not Relevant to Tax Deferred Actual after-tax returns depend on an investor’s tax situation and may differ from those shown, and after-tax returns shown are not relevant to investors who hold their Fund shares through tax-deferred or other tax-advantaged arrangements, such as 401(k) plans or individual retirement accounts (“IRAs”).
Performance Table Explanation after Tax Higher The differences in before-tax returns and after-tax returns on distributions and sale of Fund shares are due to adjustments incorporated into the after-tax returns for qualified taxable dividend income and qualifying foreign tax credits. The return after taxes on distributions and sale of Fund shares may be higher than other return figures for the same period when a capital loss occurs upon the redemption of Fund shares and provides an assumed tax benefit.
