Please refer to the Fund s Statement of Additional Information (SAI) for further information. The table below contains estimated PFIC adjustments for select ishares Funds. The estimated adjustments represent a potential dollar impact to the December distributions and are based upon the best information available as of December 15, This estimate is for informational purposes only and does not take into account any possible tax reclassifications, nor does it contemplate changes in income that may occur prior to record date. Actual adjustments may be higher or lower that the estimate. You should not make investment decisions based on this information.
