These notices can be found on the Funds’ website. In early 2026 and early 2027, after definitive information is available, each Fund will send shareholders a Form 1099-DIV, if applicable, specifying how the distributions paid by each Fund during the prior calendar year should be characterized for purposes of reporting the distributions on a shareholder’s tax return (e.g., ordinary and/or tax-exempt income, long-term capital gain or return of capital).
