With respect to each of TTP and TPZ:
You should not draw any conclusions about the fund’s investment
performance from the amount of this distribution or from the terms
of the fund’s distribution policy.
The fund estimates that it has distributed more than its income
and net realized capital gains; therefore, a portion of your
distribution may be a return of capital. A return of capital may
occur, for example, when some or all of the money that you invested
in the fund is paid back to you. A return of capital distribution
does not necessarily reflect the fund’s investment performance and
should not be confused with "yield" or "income."
The amounts and sources of distributions reported are only
estimates and are not being provided for tax reporting purposes.
The actual amounts and sources of the amounts for tax reporting
purposes will depend upon the fund’s investment experience during
the remainder of its fiscal year and may be subject to changes
based on tax regulations. The fund will send you a Form 1099-DIV
for the calendar year that will tell you how to report these
distributions for federal income tax purposes.
