than ordinary income, such as short term capital gains, long term
capital gains or return of capital. If a distribution consists of
something other than ordinary income, a Section 19(a) notice
detailing the anticipated source(s) of the distribution will be
made available. The Section 19(a) notice will be posted to a Fund’s
website and to the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation so
that brokers can distribute such notices to Shareholders of the
Fund. Section 19(a) notices are provided for informational purposes
only and not for tax reporting purposes. The final determination of
the source and tax characteristics of all distributions in 2015
will be made after the end of the year. This information is not
