This supplement provides new and additional information beyond that contained in the Summary Prospectuses, Prospectuses and SAIs, and should be read in conjunction with the Summary Prospectuses, Prospectuses and SAIs.
Effective on or about February 28, 2021 (the “Conversion Date”), each Fund will automatically convert its outstanding Investor Shares to I Shares of the Fund (the “Conversion”). After the Conversion Date, Investor Shares will no longer be offered by the Funds, and will be terminated as a separately designated class of the Funds.
In connection with the Conversion, effective immediately, Investor Shares are closed to new investors and new accounts. Until the Conversion Date, existing Investor Shares shareholders (i) may continue to make additional purchases of Investor Shares and (ii) will continue to have their dividend and capital gains distributions reinvested.
The Conversion of each Fund’s Investor Shares into I Shares on the Conversion Date is not expected to be a taxable event for federal income tax purposes or to result in the recognition of gain or loss by converting shareholders, although shareholders should consult their own tax advisors.
Shareholders who are subject to the Conversion will be deemed to be eligible investors for purposes of the I Shares’ minimum initial investment requirement.
For each Fund, I Shares currently have a lower total expense ratio than Investor Shares and are not subject to the distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees or the shareholder servicing fees payable by the Fund with respect to Investor Shares.
PLEASE RETAIN THIS SUPPLEMENT FOR FUTURE REFERENCE.
