On June 20, 2025, each Fund’s current Target Outcome Period will end, and a new Target Outcome Period will begin as of June 23, 2025. The new Target Outcome Period will end on June 18, 2026. While the actual caps will not be determined until the first day of the new Target Outcome Period, set forth below are the anticipated cap ranges for each Fund for the Target Outcome Period beginning on June 23, 2025. A supplement to each Fund’s prospectus will be filed on June 23, 2025 that will include the actual cap for the new Target Outcome Period, which may be higher or lower than the anticipated cap ranges set forth below.
