The Fund listed above has accelerated the declaration, ex-date, and record date of the regularly scheduled January 2025 distribution in order for the Fund to meet its 2024 distribution requirement for federal excise tax purposes. In February 2025, the above Fund expects to resume its regular monthly declaration, distribution and payment schedule.
A portion of a Fund's current distribution may include sources other than net investment income, including a return of capital. Investors should understand that a return of capital is not a distribution from income or gains of a Fund. As required under the Investment Company Act of 1940, a notice with the estimated components of the distribution will be sent to shareholders at the time of payment if it does not consist solely of net investment income. Such notice will also be posted to the Funds' website at www.jhinvestments.com. The notice should not be used to prepare tax returns as the estimates indicated in the notice may differ from the ultimate federal income tax characterization of distributions. After the end of each calendar year, investors will be sent a Form 1099-DIV informing them how to report distributions received during that year for federal income tax purposes.
