| aFund and underlying Index returns are based on the inception date of the Fund. Returns for the benchmark indexes are based on the closest month end to the Fund's inception date. |
As stated in the Fund's prospectus, the expense ratio of
0.75% is expressed as a unitary fee to cover expenses incurred in connection with managing the portfolio.

Total returns are based on the closing market price. Market returns are based on the midpoint of the bid/ask spread at 4 p.m. ET and do not represent the returns an investor would receive if shares were traded at other times. Performance data quoted represents past performance, which is not a guarantee of future results. Investment returns and principal value will fluctuate, and shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost. Current performance may be higher or lower than performance data quoted. After-tax returns reflect the highest federal income tax rate but exclude state and local taxes. Fund performance reflects fee waivers, absent which, performance data quoted would have been lower. After Tax Held and After Tax Sold are based on NAV.
