*Asset class exposure includes the impact of derivatives. "Gross Exposure" represents the sum of the absolute value of long and short notional contract values in U.S. dollars of the Fund's positions (for a given asset class), divided by the Fund's net assets exposure within each asset class. "Net Exposure" represents the net exposure within the Fund to a given asset class, calculated as the difference between long and short exposures.  The exposure of option contracts is delta-adjusted. Forward foreign currency exchange contracts for individual currency crosses are aggregated by settlement date and counterparty in the determination of gross exposure.  Fixed income exposures are duration-adjusted to the 10-year reference rate of each respective country. "Short-term Investments” includes U.S. Treasuries and other short-term investments, including money market funds, repurchase agreements, cash and time deposits.

Footnote Description
Footnote*
Tilts exposure includes the impact of derivatives. "Gross Exposure" represents the sum of the absolute value of long and short notional contract values in U.S. dollars of the Fund's positions (for a tilt exposure), divided by the Fund's total net assets. "Net Exposure" represents the net exposure within the Fund to a given tilt position, calculated as the difference between long and short exposures. The exposure of option contracts is delta-adjusted. Fixed income exposures are duration-adjusted to the 10-year reference rate of each respective country.
Footnote^
Amounts are rounding to zero.
