Investment Companies; Reporting of Executive Compensation Votes by Institutional Investment 

Managers (Nov. 2, 2022) [87 FR 78770 (Dec. 22, 2022)]. Until reporting for the reporting period 

ending June 30, 2024, registrants should continue to file the currently effective version of Form

A. Rule as to Use of Form N-PX.

Form N-PX is to be used by a registered management investment company, other than a

small business investment company registered on Form N-5 (17 CFR 239.24 and 274.5), to file 

the registered management investment company’s complete proxy voting record pursuant to 

Section 30 of the Investment Company Act of 1940 (“Investment Company Act”) and Rule 

30b1-4 thereunder (17 CFR 270.30b1-4). Form N-PX also is to be used by a person that is 

required to file reports under Rule 13f-1 (“Institutional Manager”), to file the Institutional 

Manager’s proxy voting record regarding votes pursuant to Sections 14A(a) and (b) of the 

Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (“Exchange Act”) on certain executive compensation matters, 

pursuant to Section 14A(d) of the Exchange Act and Rule 14Ad-1 thereunder (17 CFR 

240.14Ad-1). Form N-PX is to be filed not later than August 31 of each year for the most recent 

12-month period ended June 30, except in the case of Institutional Managers that make initial or

final filings on Form 13F during the relevant 12-month period as described in General

Instruction F.

B. Application of General Rules and Regulations.

The General Rules and Regulations under the Investment Company Act and the

Exchange Act contain certain general requirements that are applicable to reporting on any form 

under those Acts. These general requirements should be read and observed carefully in the 

preparation and filing of reports on this form, except that any provision in the form or in these 

instructions is controlling. 
2 

C. Joint Reporting Rules. 

1. If two or more Institutional Managers, each of which is required by Rule 14Ad-1 to 

file a report on Form N-PX for the reporting period, exercised voting power over the 

same securities on a vote pursuant to Section 14A(a) or (b) of the Exchange Act, only 

one such Institutional Manager must include the information regarding that vote in its 

report on Form N-PX.

2. Two or more Institutional Managers that are affiliated persons, as defined in Section 

2(a)(3) of the Investment Company Act, may file a joint report on a single Form NPX notwithstanding that such Institutional Managers do not exercise voting power 

over the same securities. 

3. An Institutional Manager is not required to report proxy votes that are reported on a 

Form N-PX report that is filed by a Fund. 

4. An Institutional Manager that exercised voting power over any security with respect 

to proxy votes that are reported by another Institutional Manager or Managers 

pursuant to General Instruction C.1 or C.2, or are reported on a Form N-PX report 

filed by a Fund, must identify each Institutional Manager and Fund reporting on its 

behalf in the manner described in Special Instruction B.2.d. and B.2.e. 

5. An Institutional Manager reporting proxy votes on behalf of another Institutional 

Manager pursuant to General Instruction C.1 or C.2 must identify any other 

Institutional Managers on whose behalf the filing is made in the manner described in 

Special Instruction C.2. 

6. A Fund reporting proxy votes that would otherwise be required to be reported by an 

Institutional Manager must identify any Institutional Managers on whose behalf the 

filing is made in the manner described in Special Instruction C.2. 

D. Signature and Filing of Report.

1. a. For reports filed by a Fund, the report must be signed on behalf of the Fund by its 

principal executive officer or officers. For reports filed by Institutional Managers, 

the report must be signed on behalf of the Institutional Manager by an authorized 

person. Attention is directed to Rule 12b-11 under the Exchange Act and Rule 8b11 under the Investment Company Act concerning signatures. 

b. The name and title of each person who signs the report shall be typed or printed 

beneath his or her signature. 

2. A reporting person must file reports on Form N-PX electronically using the 

Commission’s Electronic Data Gathering, Analysis, and Retrieval (“EDGAR”) 

system in accordance with Regulation S-T. Consult the EDGAR Filer Manual and 

Appendices for EDGAR filing instructions.

SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS

A. Organization of Form N-PX.

1. This form consists of three parts: the Form N-PX Cover Page (“Cover Page”), the 

Form N-PX Summary Page (“Summary Page”), and the proxy voting information 

required by the form (“Proxy Voting Information”). 

2. Present the Cover Page and the Summary Page information in the format and order 

provided in the form. Do not include any additional information on the Summary 

Page. 

B. Cover Page. 

1. Amendments to a Form N-PX report must either restate the Form N-PX report in its 

entirety or include only proxy voting information that is being reported in addition to 

the information already reported in a current public Form N-PX report for the same 

period. If the Form N-PX report is filed as an amendment, then the reporting person 

must check the amendment box on the Cover Page, enter the amendment number, and 

check the appropriate box to indicate whether the amendment (a) is a restatement or 

(b) adds new Proxy Voting Information. Each amendment must include a complete 

Cover Page and, if applicable, a Summary Page. 

2. Designate the Report Type for the Form N-PX report by checking the appropriate box 

in the Report Type section of the Cover Page, and include, where applicable, the List 

of Other Persons Reporting for this Manager (on the Cover Page), the Summary Page, 

and the Proxy Voting Information, as follows: 

a. For a report by a Fund, if the Fund held one or more securities it was entitled to 

vote, check the box for Report Type “Fund Voting Report,” omit from the Cover 

Page the List of Other Persons Reporting for this Manager, and include both the 

Summary Page and the Proxy Voting Information. 

b. For a report by a Fund, if the Fund did not hold any securities it was entitled to 

vote and therefore does not have any proxy votes to report, check the box for 

Report Type “Fund Notice Report” and file the Cover Page, required signature, 

and, if applicable, the Summary Page information about the series. 

c. For a report by an Institutional Manager that includes all proxy votes required to 

be reported by the Institutional Manager, check the box for Report Type 

“Institutional Manager Voting Report,” omit from the Cover Page the List of 

Other Persons Reporting for this Manager, and include both the Summary Page 

and the Proxy Voting Information. 

d. For a report by an Institutional Manager, if no proxy votes are reported by the 

Institutional Manager in the filing, check the box for Report Type “Institutional 

Manager Notice Report,” on the Cover Page and complete the notice report filing 

explanation section. If all the votes required to be reported by the Institutional 
5 

Manager are reported by another Institutional Manager or by one or more Funds, 

check the explanatory box indicating “all proxy votes are reported by other 

reporting persons,” include the List of Other Persons Reporting for this Manager, 

and file the Cover Page and required signature only. All other reporting persons 

may omit this section. If the reporting manager did not exercise voting power over 

securities involving any reportable voting matter, check the explanatory box 

indicating “the reporting person did not exercise voting power for any reportable 

voting matter and therefore does not have any proxy votes to report for the 

reporting period” and file the Cover Page and required signature only. If the 

reporting manager has a policy not to vote on any proxy matters, clearly disclosed 

the policy, and did not vote any proxy matters during the reporting period, check 

the explanatory box indicating “the reporting person has a clearly disclosed policy 

of not voting, and did not vote, on any proxy voting matters” and file the Cover 

Page and required signature only. 

e. For a report by an Institutional Manager, if only part of the proxy votes required 

to be reported by the Institutional Manager are reported by another Institutional 

Manager or Managers or one or more Funds, check the box for Report Type 

“Institutional Manager Combination Report,” include on the Cover Page the List 

of Other Persons Reporting for this Manager, and include both the Summary Page 

and the Proxy Voting Information. 

3. If the Institutional Manager has a number assigned by the Financial Industry 

Regulatory Authority’s Central Registration Depository system or by the Investment 

Adviser Registration Depository system (“CRD number”), provide the Manager’s 

CRD number. If the Institutional Manager has a file number (e.g., 801-, 8-, 866-, 802-

) assigned by the Commission (“SEC file number”), provide the Manager’s SEC file 

number. If the Reporting Person has a Legal Entity Identifier (“LEI”), provide the 

Reporting Person’s LEI.

4. The Cover Page may include information in addition to the required information, so 

long as the additional information does not, either by its nature, quantity, or manner 

of presentation, impede the understanding or presentation of the required information. 

Place all additional information at the end of the Cover Page, except as permitted by 

paragraph (o) of Item 1.

C. Summary Page. 

1. Include on the Summary Page the total number of included Institutional Managers 

with votes reported in this Form N-PX report pursuant to General Instruction C, not 

counting the reporting person filing this report. See Special Instruction C.2. If none, 

enter the number zero (“0”). 

2. Include on the Summary Page the list of included Institutional Managers with votes 

reported in this Form N-PX report pursuant to General Instruction C. Use the title, 

column headings, and format provided. 
6 

a. If this Form N-PX report does not report the proxy votes of any Institutional 

Manager other than the reporting person, enter the word “NONE” under the title 

and omit the column headings and list entries. 

b. If this Form N-PX report reports the proxy votes of one or more Institutional 

Managers other than the reporting person, enter in the list of included Institutional 

Managers all such Institutional Managers together with their respective Form 13F 

file numbers, if known, and, if they exist, any of the respective CRD Numbers, 

LEIs, and SEC File Numbers assigned to each manager. (The Form 13F file 

numbers are assigned to Institutional Managers when they file their first Form 

13F). Assign a number to each Institutional Manager in the list of included 

Institutional Managers, and present the list in sequential order. The numbers need 

not be consecutive. Do not include the reporting person filing this report. 

3. For reports filed by a Fund, include on the Summary Page: the total number of Series 

of the Fund reported in this Form N-PX, if any; the name of each Series included; 

each Series identification number; and the LEI for any Series of the Fund. If this 

Form N-PX report does not report the proxy votes of any Series, enter the word 

“NONE” under the title and omit the column headings and list entries. 

D. Proxy Voting Information. 

1. Disclose the information required or permitted by Item 1 in the order presented in 

paragraphs (a) through (o) of Item 1. 

2. A reporting person must provide the Council on Uniform Securities Identification 

Procedures (“CUSIP”) number for the security pursuant to Item 1(b), unless the 

CUSIP is not available through reasonably practicable means, e.g., in the case of 

certain securities of foreign issuers. If the CUSIP is not available through reasonably 

practicable means, the reporting person must provide the International Securities 

Identification Number (“ISIN”) pursuant to Item 1(c), unless the ISIN is not available 

through reasonably practicable means. A reporting person may choose to report the 

global share class Financial Instrument Global Identifier (“FIGI”) for the security 

pursuant to Item 1(d). 

3. Item 1(f) requires an identification of the matter voted on for all matters. If a form of 

proxy in connection with a matter is subject to rule 14a-4 under the Exchange Act [17 

CFR 240.14a-4], the description in Item 1(f) must: (i) use the same language that is 

on the form of proxy to identify the matter; (ii) identify all matters in the same order 

as on the form of proxy; and (iii) for election of directors, identify each director 

separately in the same order as on the form of proxy, even if the election of directors 

is presented as a single matter on the form of proxy. In all other cases, provide a brief 

identification of the matters voted on and limit use of abbreviations, which should not 

be used other than for commonly understood terms or for terms that the issuer

abbreviated in its description of the matter. 
7 

4. Item 1(g) requires the reporting person to categorize each matter from a list of 

categories that may apply to such matter. In responding to Item 1(g), a reporting 

person must choose all categories applicable to such matter.

5. In responding to paragraph (i) of Item 1, a reporting person may use the number of 

shares voted as reflected in its records at the time of filing a report on Form N-PX. If 

the reporting person has not received confirmation of the actual number of votes cast 

prior to filing a report on Form N-PX, the numbers reported may reflect the number 

of shares instructed to be cast. A reporting person is not required to amend a 

previously filed Form N-PX report if the reporting person subsequently receives 

confirmation of the actual number of votes cast. 

6. In responding to paragraphs (i) and (j) of Item 1: 

a. An Institutional Manager must report the number of shares that the Institutional 

Manager is reporting on behalf of another Institutional Manager pursuant to General 

Instruction C.1 or C.2 separately from the number of shares that the Institutional 

Manager is reporting only on its own behalf. An Institutional Manager also must 

separately report shares when the groups of Institutional Managers on whose behalf 

the shares are reported are different. For example, if the reporting Institutional 

Manager is reporting on behalf of Manager A with respect to 10,000 shares and on 

behalf of Managers A and B with respect to 50,000 shares, then the groups of 10,000 

and 50,000 shares must be separately reported. 

b. A Fund must separately report shares that are reported on behalf of different 

Institutional Managers or groups of Institutional Managers pursuant to General 

Instruction C.3. 

7. For purposes of paragraph (j) of Item 1, a reporting person is considered to have 

loaned securities if it loaned the securities directly or loaned the securities indirectly 

through a lending agent. 

8. If management did not make a recommendation on how to vote on a particular matter, 

a reporting person should respond “none” to paragraph (l) of Item 1 for that matter. 

9. In the case of a reporting person that is a Fund that offers multiple Series, provide the 

information required by Item 1 separately by Series (for example, provide Series A’s 

full proxy voting record, followed by Series B’s full proxy voting record). 

10. In response to paragraph (o), a reporting person may provide additional information 

about the matter or how it voted, provided the information does not, either by its 

nature, quantity, or manner of presentation, impede the understanding or presentation 

of the required information. The disclosure permitted by paragraph (o) is optional. A 

reporting person is not required to respond to paragraph (o) for any vote, and if a 

reporting person does provide additional information for one or more votes, it is not 

required to provide this information for all votes. 

INSTRUCTIONS FOR CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT REQUESTS
8 

1. An Institutional Manager should make requests for confidential treatment of 

information reported on this form in accordance with rule 24b-2(i) under the 

Exchange Act [17 CFR 240.24b-2(i)]. 

2. Paragraph (i) of rule 24b-2 requires a person filing confidential information with the 

Commission to indicate at the appropriate place in the public filing that the 

confidential portion has been so omitted and filed separately with the Commission. 

An Institutional Manager must comply with this provision by including on the Cover 

Page a statement that confidential information has been omitted from the public Form 

N-PX report and filed separately with the Commission. 

3. An Institutional Manager must file electronically, in accordance with rule 101(d) of 

Regulation S-T [17 CFR 232.101(d)], all requests for and information subject to the 

request for confidential treatment.

4. An Institutional Manager must file all requests for and information subject to the 

request for confidential treatment in accordance with the instructions for filing 

confidential treatment requests for information filed on Form 13F. In making a 

determination as to requests for confidential treatment of information filed on Form 

N-PX, the Commission will apply the same standards as set forth in Section 13(f)(4) 

and (5) of the Exchange Act [15 U.S.C. 78m(f)(4) and (5)] and rule 24b-2. If a 

request for confidential treatment of information filed on Form N-PX relates to a 

request for confidential treatment of information included in an Institutional 

Manager’s filing on Form 13F, the Institutional Manager should so state and identify 

the related request. In such cases, the Institutional Manager need not repeat the 

analysis set forth in the request for confidential treatment in connection with the Form 

13F filing. The Institutional Manager’s request, however, must explain whether and, 

if so, how the Form N-PX and Form 13F confidential treatment requests are related 

and should identify if any of the analysis in its request for confidential treatment on 

Form 13F does not apply, or applies differently, to its report on Form N-PX.

5. An Institutional Manager requesting confidential treatment must provide enough 

factual support for its request to enable the Commission to make an informed 

judgment as to the merits of the request, including a demonstration that the 

information is customarily and actually kept private by the Institutional Manager and 

that failure to grant the request for confidential treatment would be likely to cause 

harm to the Institutional Manager. 

6. State, and provide justification for, the period of time for which confidential treatment 

of the proxy voting information is requested. The time period specified may not 

exceed one (1) year from the date that the Form N-PX report is required to be filed 

with the Commission. 

7. At the expiration of the period for which confidential treatment has been granted (the 

“Expiration Date”) and unless a de novo request for confidential treatment of the 

information that meets the requirements of Rule 24b-2 and these Confidential 

Treatment Instructions is filed with the Commission at least fourteen (14) days in 
9 

advance of the Expiration Date, the Institutional Manager will make such proxy 

voting information public as set forth in Confidential Treatment Instruction 8. 

8. Unless a hardship exemption is available, the Institutional Manager must submit 

electronically within six (6) business days of the expiration of confidential treatment 

or notification of denial, as applicable, a Form N-PX amendment to its previously 

filed public Form N-PX report that includes the proxy voting information as to which 

the Commission denied confidential treatment or for which confidential treatment has 

expired. Such Form N-PX amendment must be timely filed: (i) upon the denial by the 

Commission of a request for confidential treatment; (ii) upon expiration of the time 

period for which an Institutional Manager has requested confidential treatment; or 

(iii) upon the expiration of the confidential treatment previously granted for a filing. 

If an Institutional Manager files an amendment, the amendment must not be a 

restatement; the Institutional Manager must designate it as an amendment that adds 

new proxy voting information. The Institutional Manager must include at the top of 

the Form N-PX Cover Page the following legend to correctly designate the type of 

filing being made: 

THIS FILING LISTS PROXY VOTE INFORMATION REPORTED ON 

THE FORM N-PX FILED ON (DATE) PURSUANT TO A REQUEST 

FOR CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT AND FOR WHICH (THAT 

REQUEST WAS DENIED/CONFIDENTIAL TREATMENT 

EXPIRED) ON (DATE).
