Form 8937: Report of Organizational Actions Affecting Basis of Securities

When electing to provide this information on the fund's primary public website, it must remain accessible there for a period of ten years.

What “cost basis” means

The cost basis of your mutual fund shares is typically the price you paid for the shares plus fees (if applicable) including the price of shares obtained through reinvestment of distributions.

Covered versus noncovered shares

The regulations make the distinction between covered and noncovered shares in a taxable account:

• Covered shares are any shares acquired on or after January 1, 2012. We are required to report the cost basis for any sales or exchanges of covered shares to you and the IRS.
• Noncovered shares are any shares acquired before January 1, 2012, and any shares for which cost basis is unknown. We are not required to report cost basis for these shares to the IRS.

Capital gain or loss

When you sell or exchange shares, your capital gain or loss is the difference between the proceeds from the sale/exchange and the cost basis of the shares.

Even though we will report any cost basis for the sale or exchange of covered shares to you and the IRS, you’ll be responsible for reporting any capital gain or loss information for both covered and noncovered shares to the IRS.

Holding period

Whether you purchased your shares directly or through reinvestment, the length of time you owned the shares—your holding period—determines whether your gain or loss is considered long- or short-term:

• Long-term: shares held for more than one year
• Short-term: shares held for one year or less
