(the "Vanguard Funds")
Dear Mr. Sandoe:
The following summarizes our conversation on April 6, 2009 regarding your
comment to the Vanguard Funds' proxy statement correspondence filing on April 2,
2009.
Comment: In Subproposal 2f on page 26, the policy for funds (other than money
market funds) that concentrate states that "The Fund will concentrate
its investments in the securities of issuers whose principal business
activities are in the [insert the industry indicated in the
prospectus] industry group or industry." Is this how the subproposal
will appear in the proxy statement or will each fund's particular
industry group/industry be specified?
Response: To address any confusion as to what constitutes an industry, industry
group, or sector, we will delete the language quoted above and
substitute the following: "The Fund will concentrate its investments
in the securities of issuers whose principal business activities are
in the _______ industry, as defined in the prospectus or SAI [the
blank to be consistent with the fund's name, such as Energy, Health
Care, etc.]." Of course, when the policy is described in the SAI, the
bracketed and italicized language will not appear and the blank will
be filled in.
As required by the SEC, the Funds acknowledge that:
o Each Fund is responsible for the adequacy and accuracy of the disclosure in
the filing.
o Staff comments or changes in response to staff comments in the filings
reviewed by the staff do not foreclose the Commission from taking any
action with respect to the filing.
o Each Fund may not assert staff comments as a defense in any proceeding
initiated by the Commission or any person under the federal securities laws
of the United States.
Please contact me at (610) 503-2398 with any questions or comments regarding the
above response. Thank you.
Sincerely,
Barry A. Mendelson
Principal and Senior Counsel
