Investment Objectives And Policies
The investment objectives and general investment policies of each Fund are described in the Prospectuses. Consistent with each Fund’s investment policies, each Fund may invest in “Fixed Income Instruments,” which are defined in the Prospectuses. Additional information concerning the characteristics of certain of the Funds’ investments, strategies and risks is set forth below.
The PIMCO All Asset and PIMCO All Asset All Authority Funds, which are separate Funds, invest substantially all of their assets in other series of the Trust (except the PIMCO Emerging Markets Full Spectrum Bond Fund, PIMCO Global Core Asset Allocation Fund, PIMCO Inflation Response Multi-Asset Fund, PIMCO California Municipal Intermediate Value Fund, PIMCO California Municipal Opportunistic Value Fund, PIMCO National Municipal Intermediate Value Fund, PIMCO National Municipal Opportunistic Value Fund and each other), as well as in actively managed or smart beta funds (including mutual funds or exchange-traded funds) of PIMCO ETF Trust and PIMCO Equity Series, each an affiliated open-end management investment company. The other Funds in which the PIMCO All Asset and PIMCO All Asset All Authority Funds invest are referred to in this Statement of Additional Information as “Underlying PIMCO Funds.” By investing in Underlying PIMCO Funds, the PIMCO All Asset Fund, PIMCO All Asset All Authority Fund and any other funds of funds managed by PIMCO that invest all or a significant portion of their assets in certain or all of the Underlying PIMCO Funds, as specified in each Fund’s Prospectus (together with the PIMCO All Asset and PIMCO All Asset All Authority Funds, the “PIMCO Funds of Funds”), may have indirect exposure to some or all of the securities and instruments described below depending upon how their assets are allocated among the Underlying PIMCO Funds. Because the PIMCO Funds of Funds invest substantially all or a significant portion of their assets in certain or all of the Underlying PIMCO Funds, investment decisions made with respect to the PIMCO Funds of Funds could, under certain circumstances, negatively impact the Underlying PIMCO Funds, including with respect to the expenses and investment performance of the Underlying PIMCO Funds. Similarly, certain funds managed by investment advisers affiliated with PIMCO (“Affiliated Funds of Funds”) may invest some or all of their assets in the Underlying PIMCO Funds, and investment decisions made with respect to Affiliated Funds of Funds similarly could, under certain circumstances, negatively impact the Underlying PIMCO Funds, including with respect to the expenses and investment performance of the Underlying PIMCO Funds.
The PIMCO Emerging Markets Full Spectrum Bond, PIMCO Global Core Asset Allocation and PIMCO Inflation Response Multi-Asset Funds may also invest in certain Underlying PIMCO Funds, as specified in each Fund’s Prospectus. However, the PIMCO Emerging Markets Full Spectrum Bond Fund, PIMCO Global Core Asset Allocation Fund and PIMCO Inflation Response Multi-Asset Fund may also invest in a combination of affiliated and unaffiliated funds, which may or may not be registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), Fixed Income Instruments, equity securities, forwards and derivatives, to the extent permitted under the 1940 Act or exemptive relief therefrom.
Please see “Investments in Underlying PIMCO Funds” and “Regulatory Risk” below for more information regarding potential risks related to the Underlying PIMCO Funds as well as certain regulatory changes potentially impacting the PIMCO Funds of Funds’ and Underlying PIMCO Funds’ investment strategies and operations.
The PIMCO CommodityRealReturn Strategy Fund® may pursue its investment objective by investing in the PIMCO Cayman Commodity Fund I Ltd., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Fund organized under the laws of the Cayman Islands (the “CRRS Subsidiary”). The CRRS Subsidiary is advised by PIMCO, and has the same investment objective and will generally be subject to the same fundamental, non-fundamental and certain other investment restrictions as the Fund; however, the CRRS Subsidiary (unlike the Fund) may invest without limitation in commodity-linked swap agreements and other commodity-linked derivative instruments. The Fund and CRRS
2

Subsidiary may test for compliance with certain investment restrictions on a consolidated basis, except that, in accordance with current federal securities and tax laws, rules and staff positions, with respect to its investments in certain securities that may involve leverage, the CRRS Subsidiary will comply with asset segregation or “earmarking” requirements to the same extent as the Fund. By investing in the CRRS Subsidiary, the Fund is indirectly exposed to the risks associated with the CRRS Subsidiary’s investments. The derivatives and other investments held by the CRRS Subsidiary are generally similar to those held by the Fund and are subject to the same risks that apply to similar investments if held directly by the Fund. See below “Investment Objectives and Policies—Investments in the Wholly-Owned Subsidiaries” for a more detailed discussion of the Fund’s CRRS Subsidiary.
The PIMCO Global Core Asset Allocation Fund may pursue its investment objective by investing in the PIMCO Cayman Commodity Fund II Ltd., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Fund organized under the laws of the Cayman Islands (the “GCAA Subsidiary”). The GCAA Subsidiary is advised by PIMCO, and has the same investment objective and will generally be subject to the same fundamental, non-fundamental and certain other investment restrictions as the Fund; however, the GCAA Subsidiary (unlike the Fund) may invest without limitation in commodity-linked swap agreements and other commodity-linked derivative instruments. The Fund and GCAA Subsidiary may test for compliance with certain investment restrictions on a consolidated basis, except that, in accordance with current federal securities and tax laws, rules and staff positions, with respect to its investments in certain securities that may involve leverage, the GCAA Subsidiary will comply with asset segregation or “earmarking” requirements to the same extent as the Fund. By investing in the GCAA Subsidiary, the Fund is indirectly exposed to the risks associated with the GCAA Subsidiary’s investments. The derivatives and other investments held by the GCAA Subsidiary are generally similar to those held by the Fund and are subject to the same risks that apply to similar investments if held directly by the Fund. See below “Investment Objectives and Policies—Investments in the Wholly-Owned Subsidiaries” for a more detailed discussion of the Fund’s GCAA Subsidiary.
The PIMCO CommoditiesPLUS® Strategy Fund may pursue its investment objective by investing in the PIMCO Cayman Commodity Fund III Ltd., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Fund organized under the laws of the Cayman Islands (the “CPS Subsidiary”). The CPS Subsidiary is advised by PIMCO, and has the same investment objective and will generally be subject to the same fundamental, non-fundamental and certain other investment restrictions as the Fund; however, the CPS Subsidiary (unlike the Fund) may invest without limitation in commodity-linked swap agreements and other commodity-linked derivative instruments. The Fund and CPS Subsidiary may test for compliance with certain investment restrictions on a consolidated basis, except that, in accordance with current federal securities and tax laws, rules and staff positions, with respect to its investments in certain securities that may involve leverage, the CPS Subsidiary will comply with asset segregation or “earmarking” requirements to the same extent as the Fund. By investing in the CPS Subsidiary, the Fund is indirectly exposed to the risks associated with the CPS Subsidiary’s investments. The derivatives and other investments held by the CPS Subsidiary are generally similar to those held by the Fund and are subject to the same risks that apply to similar investments if held directly by the Fund. See below “Investment Objectives and Policies—Investments in the Wholly-Owned Subsidiaries” for a more detailed discussion of the Fund’s CPS Subsidiary.
The PIMCO Inflation Response Multi-Asset Fund may pursue its investment objective by investing in the PIMCO Cayman Commodity Fund VII, Ltd., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Fund organized under the laws of the Cayman Islands (the “IRMA Subsidiary”). The IRMA Subsidiary is advised by PIMCO, and has the same investment objective and will generally be subject to the same fundamental, non-fundamental and certain other investment restrictions as the Fund; however, the IRMA Subsidiary (unlike the Fund) may invest without limitation in commodity-linked swap agreements and other commodity-linked derivative instruments. The Fund and IRMA Subsidiary may test for compliance with certain investment restrictions on a consolidated basis, except that, in accordance with current federal securities and tax laws, rules and staff positions, with respect to its investments in certain securities that may involve leverage, the IRMA Subsidiary will comply with asset segregation or “earmarking” requirements to the same extent as the Fund. By investing in the IRMA Subsidiary, the Fund is indirectly exposed to the risks associated with the IRMA Subsidiary’s investments. The derivatives and other investments held by the IRMA Subsidiary are generally similar to those held by the Fund and are subject to the same risks that apply to similar investments if held directly by the Fund. See below “Investment Objectives and Policies—Investments in the Wholly-Owned Subsidiaries” for a more detailed discussion of the Fund’s IRMA Subsidiary.
The PIMCO TRENDS Managed Futures Strategy Fund may pursue its investment objective by investing in the PIMCO Cayman Commodity Fund VIII, Ltd., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Fund organized under the laws of the Cayman Islands (the “MF Subsidiary,” together with the CRRS Subsidiary, the GCAA Subsidiary, the CPS Subsidiary
3

The MF Subsidiary is advised by PIMCO, and has the same investment objective and will generally be subject to the same fundamental, non-fundamental and certain other investment restrictions as the Fund; however, the MF Subsidiary (unlike the Fund) may invest without limitation in commodity-linked swap agreements and other commodity-linked derivative instruments.

By investing in the MF Subsidiary, the Fund is indirectly exposed to the risks associated with the MF Subsidiary’s investments. The derivatives and other investments held by the MF Subsidiary are generally similar to those held by the Fund and are subject to the same risks that apply to similar investments if held directly by the Fund. See below “Investment Objectives and Policies—Investments in the Wholly-Owned Subsidiaries” for a more detailed discussion of the Fund’s MF Subsidiary.
The PIMCO Preferred and Capital Securities Fund may pursue its investment objective by investing in the PIMCO Capital Securities Fund (Cayman) Ltd., a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Fund organized under the laws of the Cayman Islands (the “CSF Subsidiary,” together with the Commodities Subsidiaries, the “Subsidiaries”). The CSF Subsidiary is advised by PIMCO, and has the same investment objective and will generally be subject to the same fundamental, non-fundamental and certain other investment restrictions as the Fund; however, the CSF Subsidiary (unlike the Fund) may invest without limitation in Regulation S securities. The Fund and CSF Subsidiary will test for compliance with investment restrictions on a consolidated basis. By investing in the CSF Subsidiary, the Fund is indirectly exposed to the risks associated with the CSF Subsidiary’s investments. The investments held by the CSF Subsidiary are generally similar to those held by the Fund and are subject to the same risks that apply to similar investments if held directly by the Fund. See below “Investment Objectives and Policies—Investments in the Wholly-Owned Subsidiaries” for a more detailed discussion of the Fund’s CSF Subsidiary.
Effective March 15, 2019, each Predecessor Gurtin Fund, each a series of Forum Funds II and managed by Gurtin Fixed Income Management, LLC (d/b/a Gurtin Municipal Bond Management) (“Gurtin”) (each, a “Predecessor Gurtin Fund”), was reorganized into a corresponding “shell” series of PIMCO Funds consisting of the PIMCO California Municipal Intermediate Value Fund, PIMCO California Municipal Opportunistic Value Fund, PIMCO National Municipal Intermediate Value Fund and PIMCO National Municipal Opportunistic Value Fund (each, a “PIMCO Municipal Value Fund”). The reorganization provided for (i) the transfer of all of the assets of each Predecessor Gurtin Fund to its corresponding PIMCO Municipal Value Fund in exchange for Institutional Class shares of the PIMCO Municipal Value Fund of equal aggregate net asset value, (ii) the assumption by each PIMCO Municipal Value Fund of the known and existing liabilities of its corresponding Predecessor Gurtin Fund, (iii) the distribution by each PIMCO Municipal Value Fund of Institutional Class shares of such PIMCO Municipal Value Fund to its corresponding Predecessor Gurtin Fund, and (iv) the subsequent termination, dissolution and complete liquidation of each Predecessor Gurtin Fund. The investment objective, investment strategies, and principal investment risks of each Predecessor Gurtin Fund and its corresponding PIMCO Municipal Value Fund are substantially similar. The PIMCO Municipal Value Funds succeeded to the accounting and performance histories of the Predecessor Gurtin Funds. Certain historical information provided in this SAI for the PIMCO Municipal Value Funds, therefore, is that of the corresponding Predecessor Gurtin Fund. The PIMCO Municipal Value Funds filed with the IRS an automatic approval request to change fiscal year ends from September 30th to March 31st, which change became effective on March 31, 2019.
U.S. Government Securities
U.S. Government securities are obligations of and, in certain cases, guaranteed by, the U.S. Government, its agencies or instrumentalities. The U.S. Government does not guarantee the net asset value of a Fund’s shares. Some U.S. Government securities, such as Treasury bills, notes and bonds, and securities guaranteed by the Government National Mortgage Association (“GNMA”), are supported by the full faith and credit of the United States; others, such as those of the Federal Home Loan Banks, are supported by the right of the issuer to borrow from the U.S. Department of the Treasury (the “U.S. Treasury”); others, such as those of the Federal National Mortgage Association (“FNMA”), are supported by the discretionary authority of the U.S. Government to purchase the agency’s obligations; and still others, such as securities issued by members of the Farm Credit System, are supported only by the credit of the agency, instrumentality or corporation. U.S. Government securities may include zero coupon securities, which do not distribute interest on a current basis and tend to be subject to greater risk than interest-paying securities of similar maturities.

Securities issued by U.S. Government agencies or government-sponsored enterprises may not be guaranteed by the U.S. Treasury. GNMA, a wholly owned U.S. Government corporation, is authorized to guarantee, with the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government, the timely payment of principal and interest on securities issued by institutions approved by GNMA and backed by pools of mortgages insured by the Federal Housing Administration or guaranteed by the Department of Veterans Affairs. Government-related guarantors ( i.e. , not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government) include the FNMA and the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation (“FHLMC”). Pass-through securities issued by FNMA are guaranteed as to timely payment of principal and interest by FNMA but are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government. FHLMC guarantees the timely payment of interest and ultimate collection of principal, but its participation certificates are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government. Instead, they are supported only by the discretionary authority of the U.S. Government to purchase the agency’s obligations. Under the direction of the Federal Housing Finance Agency (“FHFA”), FNMA and FHLMC have entered into a joint initiative to develop a common securitization platform for the issuance of a uniform mortgage-backed security (“UMBS”) (the “Single Security Initiative”) that aligns the characteristics of FNMA and FHLMC certificates. The Single Security Initiative was implemented in June 2019, and the long-term effects it may have on the market for mortgage-backed securities are uncertain.
Municipal Bonds
Each Fund (except the PIMCO Government Money Market Fund) may invest in securities issued by states, territories, possessions, municipalities and other political subdivisions, agencies, authorities and instrumentalities of states, territories, possessions and multi-state agencies or authorities. It is a policy of each of the PIMCO California Intermediate Municipal Bond, PIMCO California Municipal Bond, PIMCO California Short Duration Municipal Income, PIMCO High Yield Municipal Bond, PIMCO Municipal Bond, PIMCO National Intermediate Municipal Bond, PIMCO New York Municipal Bond, PIMCO Short Duration Municipal Income, PIMCO California Municipal Intermediate Value, PIMCO California Municipal Opportunistic Value, PIMCO National Municipal Intermediate Value and PIMCO National Municipal Opportunistic Value Funds, (each a “Municipal Fund,” and collectively, the “Municipal Funds”) to have at least 80% of its net assets plus borrowings for investment purposes invested in investments, the income of which is exempt from federal income tax (“Municipal Bonds”). In the case of the PIMCO California Intermediate Municipal Bond, PIMCO California Municipal Bond, PIMCO California Short Duration Municipal Income, PIMCO California Municipal Intermediate Value and PIMCO California Municipal Opportunistic Value Funds, the Funds will invest, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of their net assets plus borrowing for investment purposes in investments, the income of which is exempt from federal income tax and California income tax (“California Municipal Bonds”). In the case of the PIMCO New York Municipal Bond Fund, the Fund will invest, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its net assets plus borrowing for investment purposes in investments, the income of which is exempt from federal income tax and New York income tax. The ability of a Municipal Fund to invest in securities other than Municipal Bonds is limited by a requirement of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Internal Revenue Code”), that at least 50% of the applicable Municipal Fund’s total assets be invested in Municipal Bonds at the end of each quarter of a Municipal Fund’s tax year.
The PIMCO California Intermediate Municipal Bond, PIMCO California Municipal Bond, PIMCO California Short Duration Municipal Income, PIMCO California Municipal Intermediate Value and PIMCO California Municipal Opportunistic Value Funds may concentrate their investments in California Municipal Bonds and will therefore be exposed to California state-specific risks. Similarly, the PIMCO New York Municipal Bond Fund may concentrate its investments in New York Municipal Bonds and therefore will be exposed to New York state-specific risks. State-specific risks are discussed in the “Description of Principal Risks” section of the Prospectuses and in this “Municipal Bonds” section of this Statement of Additional Information. The PIMCO High Yield Municipal Bond, PIMCO Municipal Bond, PIMCO National Intermediate Municipal Bond and PIMCO Short Duration Municipal Income Funds may, from time to time, invest more than 25% of their total assets in Municipal Bonds of issuers in California and New York. Accordingly, such Funds, to the extent they invest more than 25% in California or New York, will be subject to the applicable state-specific risks discussed in the “Description of Principal Risks” section of the Prospectuses and in this “Municipal Bonds” section of this Statement of Additional Information, but none of these Funds have any present intention to invest more than that amount in a particular state.
Municipal Bonds share the attributes of debt/fixed income securities in general, but are generally issued by states, municipalities and other political subdivisions, agencies, authorities and instrumentalities of states and multi-state agencies or authorities. Specifically, California and New York Municipal Bonds generally are issued by or on behalf of the State of California and New York, respectively, and their political subdivisions and financing authorities, and local
5

governments. The Municipal Bonds which the Funds may purchase include general obligation bonds and limited obligation bonds (or revenue bonds), including industrial development bonds issued pursuant to former federal tax law. General obligation bonds are obligations involving the credit of an issuer possessing taxing power and are payable from such issuer’s general revenues and not from any particular source. Limited obligation bonds are payable only from the revenues derived from a particular facility or class of facilities or, in some cases, from the proceeds of a special excise or other specific revenue source or annual revenues. Tax-exempt private activity bonds and industrial development bonds generally are also revenue bonds and thus are not payable from the issuer’s general revenues. The credit and quality of private activity bonds and industrial development bonds are usually related to the credit of the corporate user of the facilities. Payment of interest on and repayment of principal of such bonds is the responsibility of the corporate user (and/or any guarantor).
Each Fund that may invest in Municipal Bonds, and in particular the Municipal Funds, may invest 25% or more of its total assets in Municipal Bonds that finance similar projects, such as those relating to education, health care, housing, transportation, and utilities, and 25% or more of its total assets in industrial development bonds. A Fund may be more sensitive to adverse economic, business or political developments if it invests a substantial portion of its assets in the bonds of similar projects or industrial development bonds.
Each Fund that may invest in Municipal Bonds may invest in pre-refunded Municipal Bonds. Pre-refunded Municipal Bonds are tax-exempt bonds that have been refunded to a call date prior to the final maturity of principal, or, in the case of pre-refunded Municipal Bonds commonly referred to as “escrowed-to-maturity bonds,” to the final maturity of principal, and remain outstanding in the municipal market. The payment of principal and interest of the pre-refunded Municipal Bonds held by a Fund is funded from securities in a designated escrow account that holds U.S. Treasury securities or other obligations of the U.S. Government (including its agencies and instrumentalities (“Agency Securities”)). As the payment of principal and interest is generated from securities held in an escrow account established by the municipality and an independent escrow agent, the pledge of the municipality has been fulfilled and the original pledge of revenue by the municipality is no longer in place. The escrow account securities pledged to pay the principal and interest of the pre-refunded Municipal Bond do not guarantee the price movement of the bond before maturity. Issuers of Municipal Bonds refund in advance of maturity the outstanding higher cost debt and issue new, lower cost debt, placing the proceeds of the lower cost issuance into an escrow account to pre-refund the older, higher cost debt. Investments in pre-refunded Municipal Bonds held by a Fund may subject the Fund to interest rate risk, market risk and credit risk. In addition, while a secondary market exists for pre-refunded Municipal Bonds, if a Fund sells pre-refunded Municipal Bonds prior to maturity, the price received may be more or less than the original cost, depending on market conditions at the time of sale. To the extent permitted by the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”), a Fund’s investment in pre-refunded Municipal Bonds backed by U.S. Treasury and Agency securities in the manner described above, will, for purposes of diversification tests applicable to certain Funds, be considered an investment in the respective U.S. Treasury and Agency securities. Tax legislation in 2017 eliminated the tax exemption for advance refunding of municipal bonds on a go-forward basis.
Under the Internal Revenue Code, certain limited obligation bonds are considered “private activity bonds” and interest paid on such bonds is treated as an item of tax preference for purposes of calculating federal alternative minimum tax liability.
Each Fund (except the PIMCO Government Money Market Fund) may invest in Build America Bonds. Build America Bonds are tax credit bonds created by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, which authorizes state and local governments to issue Build America Bonds as taxable bonds in 2009 and 2010, without volume limitations, to finance any capital expenditures for which such issuers could otherwise issue traditional tax-exempt bonds. State and local governments may receive a direct federal subsidy payment for a portion of their borrowing costs on Build America Bonds equal to 35% of the total coupon interest paid to investors. The state or local government issuer can elect to either take the federal subsidy or pass the 35% tax credit along to bondholders. A Fund’s investments in Build America Bonds will result in taxable income and the Fund may elect to pass through to shareholders the corresponding tax credits. The tax credits can generally be used to offset federal income taxes and the alternative minimum tax, but such credits are generally not refundable. Build America Bonds involve similar risks as Municipal Bonds, including credit and market risk. They are intended to assist state and local governments in financing capital projects at lower borrowing costs and are likely to attract a broader group of investors than tax-exempt Municipal Bonds. For example, taxable funds, including Funds other than the Municipal Funds, may choose to invest in Build America Bonds. Although Build America Bonds were only authorized for issuance during 2009 and 2010, the program may have resulted in reduced issuance of tax-exempt Municipal Bonds during the same
6

period. As a result, Funds that invest in tax-exempt Municipal Bonds, such as the Municipal Funds, may have increased their holdings of Build America Bonds and other investments permitted by the Funds’ respective investment objectives and policies during 2009 and 2010. The Build America Bond program expired on December 31, 2010, at which point no further issuance of new Build America Bonds was permitted. As of the date of this Statement of Additional Information, there is no indication that Congress will renew the program to permit issuance of new Build America Bonds.
The Funds may invest in municipal lease obligations. Municipal leases are instruments, or participations in instruments, issued in connection with lease obligations or installment purchase contract obligations of municipalities (“municipal lease obligations”). Although municipal lease obligations do not constitute general obligations of the issuing municipality, a lease obligation may be backed by the municipality’s covenant to budget for, appropriate funds for and make the payments due under the lease obligation. However, certain municipal lease obligations contain “non-appropriation” clauses, which provide that the municipality has no obligation to make lease or installment purchase payments in future years unless money is appropriated for such purpose in the relevant years. In deciding whether to purchase a lease obligation, the Funds will assess the financial condition of the borrower or obligor, the merits of the project, the level of public support for the project, other credit characteristics of the obligor, and the legislative history of lease financing in the state. Municipal lease obligations may be less readily marketable than other municipal securities.
Projects financed with certificates of participation generally are not subject to state constitutional debt limitations or other statutory requirements that may apply to other municipal securities. Payments by the public entity on the obligation underlying the certificates are derived from available revenue sources. That revenue might be diverted to the funding of other municipal service projects. Payments of interest and/or principal with respect to the certificates are not guaranteed and do not constitute an obligation of a state or any of its political subdivisions.
Municipal leases may also be subject to “abatement risk.” The leases underlying certain municipal lease obligations may state that lease payments are subject to partial or full abatement. That abatement might occur, for example, if material damage to or destruction of the leased property interferes with the lessee’s use of the property. However, in some cases that risk might be reduced by insurance covering the leased property, or by the use of credit enhancements such as letters of credit to back lease payments, or perhaps by the lessee’s maintenance of reserve monies for lease payments. While the obligation might be secured by the lease, it might be difficult to dispose of that property in case of a default.
The Funds may purchase unrated municipal lease obligations if determined by PIMCO to be of comparable quality to rated securities in which the Fund is permitted to invest. A Fund may also acquire illiquid municipal lease obligations, subject to regulatory limitations on investments in illiquid investments generally. Please refer to “Illiquid Investments” below for further discussion of regulatory considerations and constraints relating to investment liquidity.
The Funds may seek to enhance their yield through the purchase of private placements. These securities are sold through private negotiations, usually to institutions or mutual funds, and may have resale restrictions. Their yields are usually higher than comparable public securities to compensate the investor for their limited marketability. Please refer to “Illiquid Investments” below for further discussion of regulatory considerations and constraints relating to investment liquidity.
Some longer-term Municipal Bonds give the investor the right to “put” or sell the security at par (face value) within a specified number of days following the investor’s request - usually one to seven days. This demand feature enhances a security’s liquidity by shortening its effective maturity and enables it to trade at a price equal to or very close to par. If a demand feature terminates prior to being exercised, a Fund would hold the longer-term security, which could experience substantially more volatility.
The Funds that may invest in Municipal Bonds may invest in municipal warrants, which are essentially call options on Municipal Bonds. In exchange for a premium, municipal warrants give the purchaser the right, but not the obligation, to purchase a Municipal Bond in the future. A Fund may purchase a warrant to lock in forward supply in an environment where the current issuance of bonds is sharply reduced. Like options, warrants may expire worthless and they may have reduced liquidity. A Fund will not invest more than 5% of its net assets in municipal warrants.
7

The Funds may invest in Municipal Bonds with credit enhancements such as letters of credit, municipal bond insurance and Standby Bond Purchase Agreements (“SBPAs”). Letters of credit are issued by a third party, usually a bank, to enhance liquidity and ensure repayment of principal and any accrued interest if the underlying Municipal Bond should default. Municipal bond insurance, which is usually purchased by the bond issuer from a private, nongovernmental insurance company, provides an unconditional and irrevocable guarantee that the insured bond’s principal and interest will be paid when due. Insurance does not guarantee the price of the bond or the share price of any fund. The credit rating of an insured bond reflects the credit rating of the insurer, based on its claims-paying ability. The obligation of a municipal bond insurance company to pay a claim extends over the life of each insured bond. Although defaults on insured Municipal Bonds have been low to date and municipal bond insurers have met their claims, there is no assurance this will continue. A higher-than-expected default rate could strain the insurer’s loss reserves and adversely affect its ability to pay claims to bondholders. A significant portion of insured Municipal Bonds that have been issued and are outstanding are insured by a small number of insurance companies, an event involving one or more of these insurance companies, such as a credit rating downgrade, could have a significant adverse effect on the value of the Municipal Bonds insured by that insurance company and on the Municipal Bond markets as a whole. Downgrades of certain insurance companies have negatively impacted the price of certain insured Municipal Bonds. Given the large number of potential claims against the insurers of Municipal Bonds, there is a risk that they will not be able to meet all future claims. An SBPA is a liquidity facility provided to pay the purchase price of bonds that cannot be re-marketed. The obligation of the liquidity provider (usually a bank) is only to advance funds to purchase tendered bonds that cannot be remarketed and does not cover principal or interest under any other circumstances. The liquidity provider’s obligations under the SBPA are usually subject to numerous conditions, including the continued creditworthiness of the underlying borrower.
Certain Funds may invest in trust certificates issued in tender option bond programs. In a tender option bond transaction (“TOB”), a tender option bond trust (“TOB Trust”) issues floating rate certificates (“TOB Floater”) and residual interest certificates (“TOB Residual”) and utilizes the proceeds of such issuance to purchase a fixed-rate municipal bond (“Fixed Rate Bond”) that either is owned or identified by a Fund. The TOB Floater is generally issued to third party investors (typically a money market fund) and the TOB Residual is generally issued to the Fund that sold or identified the Fixed Rate Bond. The TOB Trust divides the income stream provided by the Fixed Rate Bond to create two securities, the TOB Floater, which is a short-term security, and the TOB Residual, which is a longer-term security. The interest rates payable on the TOB Residual issued to a Fund bear an inverse relationship to the interest rate on the TOB Floater. The interest rate on the TOB Floater is reset by a remarketing process typically every 7 to 35 days. After income is paid on the TOB Floater at current rates, the residual income from the Fixed Rate Bond goes to the TOB Residual. Therefore, rising short-term rates result in lower income for the TOB Residual, and vice versa. In the case of a TOB Trust that utilizes the cash received (less transaction expenses) from the issuance of the TOB Floater and TOB Residual to purchase the Fixed Rate Bond from a Fund, the Fund may then invest the cash received in additional securities, generating leverage for the Fund. Other PIMCO-managed accounts may also contribute municipal bonds to a TOB Trust into which a Fund has contributed Fixed Rate Bonds. If multiple PIMCO-managed accounts participate in the same TOB Trust, the economic rights and obligations under the TOB Residual will be shared among the funds ratably in proportion to their participation in the TOB Trust.
The TOB Residual may be more volatile and less liquid than other municipal bonds of comparable maturity. In most circumstances the TOB Residual holder bears substantially all of the underlying Fixed Rate Bond’s downside investment risk and also benefits from any appreciation in the value of the underlying Fixed Rate Bond. Investments in a TOB Residual typically will involve greater risk than investments in Fixed Rate Bonds.
The TOB Residual held by a Fund provides the Fund with the right to: (1) cause the holders of the TOB Floater to tender their notes at par, and (2) cause the sale of the Fixed-Rate Bond held by the TOB Trust, thereby collapsing the TOB Trust. TOB Trusts are generally supported by a liquidity facility provided by a third party bank or other financial institution (the “Liquidity Provider”) that provides for the purchase of TOB Floaters that cannot be remarketed. The holders of the TOB Floaters have the right to tender their certificates in exchange for payment of par plus accrued interest on a periodic basis (typically weekly) or on the occurrence of certain mandatory tender events. The tendered TOB Floaters are remarketed by a remarketing agent, which is typically an affiliated entity of the Liquidity Provider. If the TOB Floaters cannot be remarketed, the TOB Floaters are purchased by the TOB Trust either from the proceeds of a loan from the Liquidity Provider or from a liquidation of the Fixed Rate Bond.
The TOB Trust may also be collapsed without the consent of a Fund, as the TOB Residual holder, upon the occurrence of certain “tender option termination events” (or “TOTEs”) as defined in the TOB Trust agreements. Such
8

termination events typically include the bankruptcy or default of the municipal bond, a substantial downgrade in credit quality of the municipal bond, or a judgment or ruling that interest on the Fixed Rate Bond is subject to federal income taxation. Upon the occurrence of a termination event, the TOB Trust would generally be liquidated in full with the proceeds typically applied first to any accrued fees owed to the trustee, remarketing agent and liquidity provider, and then to the holders of the TOB Floater up to par plus accrued interest owed on the TOB Floater and a portion of gain share, if any, with the balance paid out to the TOB Residual holder. In the case of a mandatory termination event (“MTE”), after the payment of fees, the TOB Floater holders would be paid before the TOB Residual holders (i.e., the Fund). In contrast, in the case of a TOTE, after payment of fees, the TOB Floater holders and the TOB Residual holders would be paid pro rata in proportion to the respective face values of their certificates. If there are insufficient proceeds from the liquidation of the TOB Trust, the party that would bear the losses would depend upon whether a Fund holds a non-recourse TOBs Residual or a recourse TOBs Residual. If a Fund holds a non-recourse TOBs Residual, the Liquidity Provider or holders of the TOBs Floaters would bear the losses on those securities and there would be no recourse to the Fund's assets. If a Fund holds a recourse TOBs Residual, the Fund (and, indirectly, holders of the Fund's shares) would typically bear the losses. In particular, if the Fund holds a recourse TOBs Residual, it will typically have entered into an agreement pursuant to which the Fund would be required to pay to the Liquidity Provider the difference between the purchase price of any TOBs Floaters put to the Liquidity Provider by holders of the TOBs Floaters and the proceeds realized from the remarketing of those TOBs Floaters or the sale of the assets in the TOBs Issuer. A Fund may invest in both non-recourse and recourse TOBs Residuals to leverage its portfolio.
In December 2013, regulators finalized rules implementing Section 619 (the “Volcker Rule”) and Section 941 (the “Risk Retention Rules”) of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (the “Dodd-Frank Act”). Both the Volcker Rule and the Risk Retention Rules apply to tender option bond programs and place restrictions on the way certain sponsors may participate in tender option bond programs. Specifically, the Volcker Rule generally prohibits banking entities from engaging in proprietary trading or from acquiring or retaining an ownership interest in, or sponsoring, a hedge fund or private equity fund (“covered fund”), subject to certain exemptions and limitations. Tender option bond programs generally are considered to be covered funds under the Volcker Rule, and, thus, may not be sponsored by a banking entity absent an applicable exemption. The Volcker Rule does not provide for any exemption that would allow banking entities to sponsor tender option bonds in the same manner as they did prior to the Volcker Rule’s compliance date, which was July 21, 2017.
The Risk Retention Rules took effect in December 2016 and require the sponsor to a TOB Trust to retain at least five percent of the credit risk of the underlying assets supporting the TOB Trust’s Municipal Bonds. The Risk Retention Rules may adversely affect the Funds’ ability to engage in TOB Trust transactions or increase the costs of such transactions in certain circumstances.
The Funds have restructured their TOB Trusts in conformity with regulatory guidelines. Under the new TOB Trust structure, the Liquidity Provider or remarketing agent will no longer purchase the tendered TOB Floaters, even in the event of failed remarketing. This may increase the likelihood that a TOB Trust will need to be collapsed and liquidated in order to purchase the tendered TOB Floaters. The TOB Trust may draw upon a loan from the Liquidity Provider to purchase the tendered TOB Floaters. Any loans made by the Liquidity Provider will be secured by the purchased TOB Floaters held by the TOB Trust and will be subject to an increased interest rate based on the number of days the loan is outstanding.
The Funds also may invest in participation interests. Participation interests are various types of securities created by converting fixed rate bonds into short-term, variable rate certificates. These securities have been developed in the secondary market to meet the demand for short-term, tax-exempt securities. The Funds will invest only in such securities deemed tax-exempt by a nationally recognized bond counsel, but there is no guarantee the interest will be exempt because the IRS has not issued a definitive ruling on the matter.
Municipal Bonds are subject to credit and market risk. Generally, prices of higher quality issues tend to fluctuate less with changes in market interest rates than prices of lower quality issues and prices of longer maturity issues tend to fluctuate more than prices of shorter maturity issues.
The recent economic downturn and budgetary constraints have made Municipal Bonds more susceptible to downgrade, default and bankruptcy. In addition, difficulties in the Municipal Bond markets could result in increased illiquidity, volatility and credit risk, and a decrease in the number of Municipal Bond investment opportunities. The
9

value of Municipal Bonds may also be affected by uncertainties involving the taxation of Municipal Bonds or the rights of Municipal Bond holders in the event of a bankruptcy. Proposals to restrict or eliminate the federal income tax exemption for interest on Municipal Bonds are introduced before Congress from time to time. These legal uncertainties could affect the Municipal Bond market generally, certain specific segments of the market, or the relative credit quality of particular securities.
The Funds may purchase and sell portfolio investments to take advantage of changes or anticipated changes in yield relationships, markets or economic conditions. The Funds also may sell Municipal Bonds due to changes in PIMCO’s evaluation of the issuer or cash needs resulting from redemption requests for Fund shares. The secondary market for Municipal Bonds typically has been less liquid than that for taxable debt/fixed income securities, and this may affect a Fund’s ability to sell particular Municipal Bonds at then-current market prices, especially in periods when other investors are attempting to sell the same securities. Additionally, Municipal Bonds rated below investment grade (i.e., high yield Municipal Bonds) may not be as liquid as higher-rated Municipal Bonds. Reduced liquidity in the secondary market may have an adverse impact on the market price of a Municipal Bond and on a Fund’s ability to sell a Municipal Bond in response to changes or anticipated changes in economic conditions or to meet the Fund’s cash needs. Reduced liquidity may also make it more difficult to obtain market quotations based on actual trades for purposes of valuing a Fund’s portfolio. For more information on high yield securities please see “High Yield Securities (“Junk Bonds”) and Securities of Distressed Companies” below.
Prices and yields on Municipal Bonds are dependent on a variety of factors, including general money-market conditions, the financial condition of the issuer, general conditions of the Municipal Bond market, the size of a particular offering, the maturity of the obligation and the rating of the issue. A number of these factors, including the ratings of particular issues, are subject to change from time to time. Information about the financial condition of an issuer of Municipal Bonds may not be as extensive as that which is made available by corporations whose securities are publicly traded.
Each Fund that may invest in Municipal Bonds may purchase custodial receipts representing the right to receive either the principal amount or the periodic interest payments or both with respect to specific underlying Municipal Bonds. In a typical custodial receipt arrangement, an issuer or third party owner of Municipal Bonds deposits the bonds with a custodian in exchange for two classes of custodial receipts. The two classes have different characteristics, but, in each case, payments on the two classes are based on payments received on the underlying Municipal Bonds. In no event will the aggregate interest paid with respect to the two classes exceed the interest paid by the underlying Municipal Bond. Custodial receipts are sold in private placements. The value of a custodial receipt may fluctuate more than the value of a Municipal Bond of comparable quality and maturity.
The perceived increased likelihood of default among issuers of Municipal Bonds has resulted in constrained illiquidity, increased price volatility and credit downgrades of issuers of Municipal Bonds. Local and national market forces—such as declines in real estate prices and general business activity—may result in decreasing tax bases, fluctuations in interest rates, and increasing construction costs, all of which could reduce the ability of certain issuers of Municipal Bonds to repay their obligations. Certain issuers of Municipal Bonds have also been unable to obtain additional financing through, or must pay higher interest rates on, new issues, which may reduce revenues available for issuers of Municipal Bonds to pay existing obligations. In addition, events have demonstrated that the lack of disclosure rules in this area can make it difficult for investors to obtain reliable information on the obligations underlying Municipal Bonds. Adverse developments in the Municipal Bond market may negatively affect the value of all or a substantial portion of a fund’s holdings in Municipal Bonds.
Obligations of issuers of Municipal Bonds are subject to the provisions of bankruptcy, insolvency and other laws affecting the rights and remedies of creditors. Congress or state legislatures may seek to extend the time for payment of principal or interest, or both, or to impose other constraints upon enforcement of such obligations. There is also the possibility that as a result of litigation or other conditions, the power or ability of issuers to meet their obligations for the payment of interest and principal on their Municipal Bonds may be materially affected or their obligations may be found to be invalid or unenforceable. Such litigation or conditions may from time to time have the effect of introducing uncertainties in the market for Municipal Bonds or certain segments thereof, or of materially affecting the credit risk with respect to particular bonds. Adverse economic, business, legal or political developments might affect all or a substantial portion of a Fund’s Municipal Bonds in the same manner. In particular, the PIMCO California Intermediate Municipal Bond, PIMCO California Municipal Bond, PIMCO California Short Duration Municipal
10

Income, PIMCO California Municipal Intermediate Value, PIMCO California Municipal Opportunistic Value and PIMCO New York Municipal Bond Funds are subject to the risks inherent in concentrating investment in a particular state or region.
From time to time, proposals have been introduced before Congress for the purpose of restricting or eliminating the federal income tax exemption for interest on certain types of Municipal Bonds. Additionally, certain other proposals have been introduced that would have the effect of taxing a portion of exempt interest and/or reducing the tax benefits of receiving exempt interest. It can be expected that similar proposals may be introduced in the future. As a result of any such future legislation, the availability of such Municipal Bonds for investment by the Funds and the value of such Municipal Bonds held by the Funds may be affected. In addition, it is possible that events occurring after the date of a Municipal Bond’s issuance, or after a Fund’s acquisition of such obligation, may result in a determination that the interest paid on that obligation is taxable, in certain cases retroactively.
The following summarizes information drawn from official statements, and other public documents available relating to issues potentially affecting securities offerings of issuers domiciled in the states of California and New York. Neither the Funds nor PIMCO have independently verified the information, but have no reason to believe that it is substantially different.
California. Each Fund investing in California Municipal Bonds, and in particular the PIMCO California Intermediate Municipal Bond, PIMCO California Municipal Bond, PIMCO California Short Duration Municipal Income, PIMCO California Municipal Intermediate Value and PIMCO California Municipal Opportunistic Value Funds may be particularly affected by political, economic, regulatory, social, environmental, or public health developments affecting the ability of California tax-exempt issuers to pay interest or repay principal.
Provisions of the California Constitution and State statutes that limit the taxing and spending authority of California governmental entities may impair the ability of California governmental issuers to maintain debt service on their obligations. Future California political and economic developments, constitutional amendments, legislative measures, executive orders, administrative regulations, litigation and voter initiatives as well as environmental events, natural disasters, pandemics, epidemics, or social unrest could have an adverse effect on the debt obligations of California issuers. The information set forth below constitutes only a brief summary of a number of complex factors that may impact issuers of California municipal bonds. The information is derived from sources that are generally available to investors, including information promulgated by the State’s Department of Finance, the State’s Treasurer’s Office, and the Legislative Analyst’s Office. The information is intended to give a recent historical description and is not intended to indicate future or continuing trends in the financial or other positions of California. Such information has not been independently verified by the Funds, and the Funds assume no responsibility for the completeness or accuracy of such information. In addition, as a result of severe market volatility and economic challenges stemming from the COVID-19 crisis, California may be less able to maintain up-to-date information for the public. It should be noted that the financial strength of local California issuers and the creditworthiness of obligations issued by local California issuers are not directly related to the financial strength of the State or the creditworthiness of obligations issued by the State, and there is no obligation on the part of the State to make payment on such local obligations in the event of default.
Certain debt obligations held by a Fund may be obligations of issuers that rely in whole or in substantial part on California state government revenues for the continuance of their operations and payment of their obligations. Whether and to what extent the California Legislature will continue to appropriate a portion of the State’s General Fund to counties, cities and their various entities, which depend upon State government appropriations, is not entirely certain. To the extent local entities do not receive money from the State government to pay for their operations and services, their ability to pay debt service on obligations held by the Funds may be impaired.
Certain tax-exempt securities in which the Funds may invest may be obligations payable solely from the revenues of specific institutions, or may be secured by specific properties, which are subject to provisions of California law that could adversely affect the holders of such obligations. For example, the revenues of California health care institutions may be subject to state laws, and California law limits the remedies of a creditor secured by a mortgage or deed of trust on real property.
California’s economy, the largest state economy in the United States and one of the largest and most diverse in the world, has major components in high technology, trade, entertainment, manufacturing, government, tourism,
11

construction and services, and may be sensitive to economic factors affecting those industries. The relative proportion of the various components of the California economy closely resembles the make-up of the national economy.
California’s fiscal health has improved since the severe recession ended in 2009, which caused large budget deficits. California’s General Fund budget has achieved structural balance for the last several fiscal years. In recent years, the State has paid off billions of dollars of budgetary borrowings, debts and deferrals that were accumulated to balance budgets during the most recent recession and years prior. However, California’s General Fund was adversely impacted by the health-related and economic impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. Efforts to respond to and mitigate the spread of COVID-19 have had a negative impact on the California and national economies. California incurred substantial direct costs in responding to Covid-19.To help address the public health and economic impact of COVID-19, the federal government passed the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”), which provided for approximately $2.2 trillion in disaster relief. Among other things, the CARES Act established the Coronavirus Relief Fund (“CRF”), of which California has received approximately $9.5 billion. In March 2021, the American Rescue Plan was signed into law, which provides an additional $350 billion in emergency funding for state, local, territorial, and Tribal governments. California was allocated approximately $27 billion in American Rescue Plan funding. In addition, the Governor signed into law in February 2021 an economic relief package totaling $7.6 billion, which was funded primarily by the State’s General Fund. While these measures have generally helped improve the economic outlook in California, it is not presently possible to predict whether these measures will be sufficient to address the long-term economic impacts of COVID-19. The rate and level at which the federal government has taken on new debt could have a negative impact on its fiscal health, which could lead to prolonged challenges for its economy as well as inflationary pressures. A failure by California to meet its debt obligations could lead to a significant decline in the value, liquidity, and marketability of Fund investments.
California’s real gross domestic product (“GDP”) grew by 7.8% in 2021, and totaled approximately $3.4 trillion at current prices, making California the fifth largest economy in the world. The unemployment rate in California grew to a peak of 16.0% in April 2020, but fell to 4.6% as of April 2022.
The budget for fiscal year 2022-2023 (“2022-23 Enacted Budget”) was signed into law on June 30, 2022. The 2022-23 Enacted Budget projects General Fund revenues and transfers to be approximately $2.197 billion (a decrease of 4.3% from the prior year). Against these revenues and transfers, the 2022-23 Enacted Budget provides for General Fund expenditures of approximately $234.4 billion, which represents a 3.5% decrease from the prior year. The 2022-23 Enacted Budget projects that the State will begin fiscal year 2023-24 with reserves of $37.2 billion.
Moody’s Investors Service, Inc. (“Moody’s”), Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services (“S&P”) and Fitch Ratings, Inc. (“Fitch”) assign ratings to California’s long-term general obligation bonds, which represent their opinions as to the quality of the municipal bonds they rate. As of July 20, 2022, California’s general obligation bonds were assigned ratings of Aa2, AA- and AA by Moody’s, S&P and Fitch, respectively. The ratings agencies continue to monitor the State’s budget deliberations closely to determine whether to alter the ratings. It should be recognized that these ratings are not an absolute standard of quality, but rather general indicators. Such ratings reflect only the view of the originating rating agencies, from which an explanation of the significance of such ratings may be obtained. There is no assurance that a particular rating will continue for any given period of time or that any such rating will not be revised downward or withdrawn entirely if, in the judgment of the agency establishing the rating, circumstances so warrant. A downward revision or withdrawal of such ratings, or either of them, may affect the market price of the State municipal obligations in which a Fund invests.
The State is a party to numerous legal proceedings, many of which normally occur in governmental operations and which, if decided against the State, might require the State to make significant future expenditures or impair future revenue sources. Constitutional and statutory amendments as well as budget developments may affect the ability of California issuers to pay interest and principal on their obligations. The overall effect may depend upon whether a particular California tax exempt security is a general or limited obligation bond and on the type of security provided for the bond. It is possible that measures affecting the taxing or spending authority of California or its political subdivisions may be approved or enacted in the future.
Additionally, California lies within an active geologic region that is subject to major seismic activity, which could result in increased frequency and severity of natural disasters, most notably, earthquakes, wildfires, mudslides, and droughts. Such events have, in the past, resulted in significant disruptions to the California economy and required substantial expenditures from the state government. Over the past several years, California has experienced
12

unprecedented drought and wildfire activity with increases in the number and severity of wildfires. Four of the 20 most destructive fires occurred in 2021. The drought and wildfires have significantly impacted California’s economy, and there can be no guarantee that future wildfires would not have an equally detrimental effect on California’s economy or environment.
New York . To the extent a Fund invests in municipal bonds issued by New York issuers, may be particularly affected by political, economic or regulatory developments affecting the ability of New York tax-exempt issuers to pay interest or repay principal. Investors should be aware that certain issuers of New York tax-exempt securities have at times experienced serious financial difficulties. A reoccurrence of these difficulties may impair the ability of certain New York issuers to maintain debt service on their obligations. The following information provides only a brief summary of the complex factors affecting the financial situation in New York (as used in this section, the “State” or “New York”) and is derived from sources that are generally available to investors, including the New York State Division of the Budget and the New York City Office of Management and Budget. The information is intended to give a recent historical description and is not intended to indicate future or continuing trends in the financial or other positions of New York. Such information has not been independently verified by a Fund, and a Fund assumes no responsibility for the completeness or accuracy of such information. In addition, as a result of the economic and operational challenges stemming from the COVID-19 crisis, New York may be less able to maintain up-to-date information for the public. It should be noted that the creditworthiness of obligations issued by local New York issuers may be unrelated to the creditworthiness of obligations issued by New York City (as used in this section, the “City” or “New York City”) and State agencies, and that there is no obligation on the part of New York State to make payment on such local obligations in the event of default.
Relative to other states, New York has for many years imposed a very high state and local tax burden on residents. The burden of state and local taxation, in combination with the many other causes of regional economic dislocation, has contributed to the decisions of some businesses and individuals to relocate outside of, or not locate within, New York. The economic and financial condition of the State also may be affected by various financial, social, economic, environmental, political, and geopolitical factors as well as natural disasters, epidemics, pandemics, and social unrest. For example, the securities industry is more central to New York’s economy than to the national economy, therefore any significant decline in stock market performance could adversely affect the State’s income and employment levels. Furthermore, such financial, social, economic, environmental, political, and geopolitical factors can be very complex, may vary from year to year and can be the result of actions taken not only by the State and its agencies and instrumentalities, but also by entities, such as the Federal government, that are not under the control of the State.
The fiscal stability of New York is related to the fiscal stability of the State’s municipalities, its agencies and authorities (which generally finance, construct and operate revenue-producing public benefit facilities). This is due in part to the fact that agencies, authorities and local governments in financial trouble often seek State financial assistance. In the event that New York City or any of its agencies or authorities suffers serious financial difficulty, then the ability of the State, New York City, and the State’s political subdivisions, agencies and authorities to obtain financing in the public credit markets, and the market price of outstanding New York tax exempt securities, may be adversely affected.
State actions affecting the level of receipts and disbursements, the relative strength of the State and regional economies and actions of the Federal government may create budget gaps for the State. Moreover, even an ostensibly balanced budget may still contain several financial risks. These risks include the impact of broad economic factors, additional spending needs, revenues that may not materialize and proposals to reduce spending or raise revenues that have been previously rejected by the Legislature. To address a potential imbalance in any given fiscal year, the State would be required to take actions to increase receipts and/or reduce disbursements as it enacts the budget for that year. Under the State Constitution, the Governor is required to propose a balanced budget each year. There can be no assurance, however, that the Legislature will enact such proposals or that the State’s actions will be sufficient to preserve budgetary balance in a given fiscal year or to align recurring receipts and disbursements in future fiscal years. The fiscal stability of the State is related to the fiscal stability of its public authorities. Authorities have various responsibilities, including those that finance, construct and/or operate revenue-producing public facilities. Authorities may issue bonds and notes within the amounts and restrictions set forth in their respective legislative authorization.
Authorities are generally supported by revenues generated by the projects financed or operated, such as tolls charged for use of highways, bridges or tunnels; charges for electric power, electric and gas utility services; rentals
13

charged for housing units and charges for occupancy at medical care facilities. Since the State has no actual or contingent liability for the payment of this type of public authority indebtedness, it is not classified as either State-supported debt or State-related debt. Some authorities, however, receive monies from State appropriations to pay for the operating costs of certain programs. In addition, State legislation authorizes several financing techniques for authorities. Also, there are statutory arrangements providing for State local assistance payments otherwise payable to localities, to be made under certain circumstances directly to the authorities in order to secure the payment of debt service on their revenue bonds and notes. Although the State has no obligation to provide additional assistance to localities whose local assistance payments have been paid to authorities under these arrangements, if local assistance payments are diverted the affected localities could seek additional State assistance.
Over the near and long term, New York and New York City may face economic problems. New York City accounts for a large portion of the State’s population and personal income, and New York City’s financial health affects the State in numerous ways. New York City continues to require significant financial assistance from the State and depends on State aid to both enable it to balance its budget and to meet its cash requirements. The State could also be affected by the ability of the City to market its securities successfully in the public credit markets.
New York has been adversely impacted by the health-related and economic effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. Efforts to respond to and mitigate the spread of COVID-19 have had a negative impact on the national and New York economies and triggered volatility in the markets. These efforts resulted in declines in state revenues in 2020, as well as increased expenditures required to manage and mitigate COVID-19’s impact. The State incurred substantial direct costs in responding to COVID-19.
To help address the public health and economic impact of COVID-19, the federal government passed the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”), which provided for approximately $2.2 trillion in disaster relief. Among other things, the CARES Act established the Coronavirus Relief Fund (the “CRF”), of which New York has received approximately $5.1 billion. In March 2021, the American Rescue Plan was signed into law, which provides an additional $350 billion in emergency funding for state, local, territorial, and Tribal governments. New York was allocated approximately $12.7 billion in American Rescue Plan funds. While these measures have generally helped improve the economic outlook in New York, it is not presently possible to predict whether the CRF and American Rescue Plan funds allocated to New York will be sufficient to address long-term economic challenges. The rate and level at which the federal government has taken on new debt could have a negative impact on its fiscal health, which could lead to prolonged challenges for the respective economies, as well as inflationary pressures. A failure by New York to meet its debt obligations could lead to a significant decline in the value, liquidity, and marketability of Fund investments.
The budget for fiscal year 2022-23 (“2022-23 Enacted Budget”) was adopted on April 9, 2022. The 2022-23 Enacted Budget forecasted total revenues of approximately $88.3 billion, which represents a decrease of $24.5 billion or 21.7% from fiscal year 2022 results. This decline is due, in part, to recent changes in tax laws affecting the amount of taxes required to be paid in connection with certain businesses subject to pass through entity taxes. The 2022-23 Enacted Budget projected personal income tax revenues of approximately $64.4 billion (an increase of $4.8 billion or 8.1% from the prior year), consumption and use tax revenues of approximately $16.0 billion (an increase of $1.6 billion or 10.9% from the prior year), and business tax receipts of approximately $9.8 billion (an increase of $1.3 billion or 15.0% from the prior year). Against these revenues, the 2022-23 Enacted Budget provides for approximately $96.1 billion in expenditures, which represents an increase of $7.2 billion (or 8.1%) from the prior year. State agency operations expenditures are also expected to total $21.7 billion, an annual increase of $934 million. The 2022-23 Enacted Budget projects that the closing balance of the General Fund at the end of fiscal year 2023 will be approximately $25.3 billion, a decrease of $7.8 billion from the prior fiscal year.
The State has experienced a number of natural disasters in recent years, for which the State has received, and anticipates further receipt of, Federal disaster aid. However, there can be no assurance that anticipated Federal disaster aid will be provided to the State, or that such Federal disaster aid, if provided, will be for the full amount estimated or on the timeline expected.
The State’s economy continues to face significant risks, including, but not limited to, the effects of: national and international events; climate change, extreme weather events and other natural disasters; pandemics; ongoing financial instability in the Euro Zone and eastern Europe; major terrorist events; hostilities or war; social unrest; changes in international trade policies, consumer confidence, oil supplies and oil prices; cyber security attacks; Federal statutory
14

and regulatory changes concerning financial sector activities; changes concerning financial sector bonus payouts; and shifts in monetary policy affecting interest rates and the financial markets.
Following a substantial increase in unemployment throughout New York in 2020, the State projects total nonfarm employment growth of 7.2% for 2022. The State projects that wages will increase by 12.1% in 2022, resulting in total personal income growth of 1.5% for the year. The State’s unemployment rate reached its peak of 16.2% in April 2020 but had fallen to 4.5% as of April 2022. The State’s unemployment rate was above the national average of 3.6% in April 2022.
New York City is the largest city in the U.S., and has a complex, varied and aging infrastructure. The City has more school buildings, firehouses, health facilities, community colleges, roads and bridges, libraries, and police precincts than any other city in the country. Notably, New York City was the center of New York’s initial COVID-19 outbreak in 2020, which had an adverse impact on the City’s financial health. Since the outbreak of COVID-19, the unemployment rate in the City has increased from 4.1% in March 2020 to 20.3% in June 2020, and ended 2020 at 12.3%.
New York City’s general debt limit, as provided in the New York State Constitution, is 10 percent of the five-year rolling average of the full value of taxable City real property. As of June 30, 2021, the City’s total debt-incurring power under the general debt limit was approximately $123.02 billion, and the net debt-incurring power was approximately $47.7 billion. The City’s general obligation debt outstanding was approximately $38.6 billion as of June 30, 2021. After including contract and other liability and adjusting for appropriations, the City’s indebtedness that is counted toward the debt limit totaled approximately $81.8 billion as of June 30, 2021.
In addition to general obligation bonds, the City maintains several additional credits, including bonds issued by the New York City Transitional Finance Authority (“NYCTFA”) and Tobacco Settlement Asset Securitization Corporation (“TSASC”). At the end of fiscal year 2021, NYCTFA debt backed by personal income tax revenues accounted for approximately $49.0 billion of debt. In July 2009, the State Legislature granted NYCTFA the authority to issue additional debt up to $13.5 for general capital purposes. The City exhausted the $13.5 billion bonding limit in fiscal year 2007. In July 2009, the State Legislature authorized TFA to issue debt beyond the $13.5 billion limit. However, this additional borrowing is subject to the City’s general debt limit. Thus, additional borrowing above the $13.5 billion limit is secured by personal income tax revenues and counted under the City’s general debt limit. In addition to this capacity, the NYCTFA is authorized to issue up to $9.4 billion of Building Aid Revenue Bonds (BARBs) for education purposes. As of June 30, 2021, excluding amortization, approximately $8.4 billion of these bonds have been issued. Debt service for these bonds is supported by building aid payments the City receives from the State. At the end of fiscal year 2021, TSASC debt totaled approximately $1.0 billion.
As of July 20, 2022 New York State’s general obligation bonds are rated AA+, Aa1, and AA+ by S&P, Moody’s and Fitch, respectively. As of July 20, 2022, New York City’s general obligation debt was rated AA, Aa2, and AA- by S&P, Moody’s, and Fitch, respectively. Such ratings reflect only the view of the originating rating agencies, from which an explanation of the significance of such ratings may be obtained. There is no assurance that a particular rating will continue for any given period of time or that any such rating will not be revised downward or withdrawn entirely if, in the judgment of the agency originally establishing the rating, circumstances so warrant. A downward revision or withdrawal of such ratings, or either of them, may have an effect on the market price of the State municipal obligations in which a Fund invests.
Puerto Rico. Each Fund investing in municipal securities issued by Puerto Rico may be particularly affected by political, economic, environmental, social, regulatory or restructuring developments affecting the ability of Puerto Rican municipal issuers to pay interest or repay principal. In addition, as a result of the ongoing financial challenges faced by Puerto Rico, including those following the outbreak of COVID-19, the Commonwealth’s economic circumstances may change negatively and more rapidly than usual, and the Commonwealth may be less able to maintain up-to-date information for the public.
During the last recession, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico (“Commonwealth” or “Puerto Rico”) experienced a significant economic downturn. Few signs of improvement have appeared, and any recovery may be slow as the Commonwealth continues to face significant fiscal challenges, including substantial underfunding of the Commonwealth’s retirement systems, sizeable debt service obligations, and a high level of unemployment. Moreover, the high level of public debt in the Commonwealth affects long-term growth prospects and could cause the
15

Commonwealth to experience additional financial hardship. The amount of its outstanding public debt, notwithstanding recent restructuring efforts that reduced the balances owed by the Commonwealth and certain instrumentalities, could make it difficult for Puerto Rico to make full repayment. Certain issuers of Puerto Rico municipal securities have failed to make payments on obligations that have come due, and additional missed payments and defaults may occur in the future. These financial challenges have been compounded by two hurricanes that impacted the Commonwealth in 2017 and a series of earthquakes in December 2019 and January 2020, which each caused substantial damage, as well as increased costs and declining revenues following the outbreak of COVID-19 in 2020. As a result of these and other factors, the Commonwealth is facing significant budget shortfalls and the most severe fiscal crisis that it has endured in decades.
On June 30, 2016, the Puerto Rico Oversight, Management, and Economic Stability Act (“PROMESA”) was signed into law by President Obama. PROMESA established a federally-appointed oversight board (the “Oversight Board”) to oversee the Commonwealth’s financial operations and allows the Commonwealth and its instrumentalities, with approval of the Oversight Board, to file cases to restructure debt and other obligations in a “Title III” proceeding. Title III incorporates many provisions of the federal Bankruptcy Code and incorporates legal mechanisms for a litigation stay and restructuring of pension and debt obligations, among other provisions. Title III petitions were filed for, among others, the Commonwealth, the Puerto Rico Sales Tax Financing Corporation, and the Puerto Rico Electric Power Authority, three of the largest issuers of Commonwealth debt. It is possible that petitions under Title III or other provisions of PROMESA, including Title VI, for additional Commonwealth instrumentalities will be filed in the future. These restructuring proceedings create uncertainty as to the treatment of claims of varying degrees of seniority in the levels and priorities of payment from the affected entities. As of the date of this Statement of Additional Information, negotiations between Puerto Rico and its instrumentalities and their respective creditors to restructure outstanding debt obligations remain ongoing, and it is not possible to predict whether the remaining instrumentalities subject to Title III proceedings will be able to come to similar agreements with their respective creditors.
There can be no assurances that the Commonwealth will not continue to face severe fiscal stress or that such circumstances will not become even more difficult in the future. Furthermore, there can be no guarantee that future developments will not have a materially adverse impact on the Commonwealth’s finances. Any further deterioration in the Commonwealth’s financial condition may have a negative effect on the payment of principal and interest, the marketability, liquidity or value of the securities issued by the Commonwealth, which could reduce the performance of a Fund.
The Commonwealth has faced a number of significant fiscal challenges, including a structural imbalance between its General Fund revenues and expenditures. Such challenges contributed to the passage of PROMESA, which established the Oversight Board and empowered it to approve Puerto Rico’s fiscal plans and budgets. The Oversight Board is comprised of seven members appointed by the President who are nominated through a bipartisan selection process. The budget process requires the Oversight Board, the Governor, and the Commonwealth’s Legislative Assembly to develop a budget that complies with the fiscal plan developed by the Oversight Board and Governor.
Investors should be aware that Puerto Rico relies heavily on transfers from the federal government related to specific programs and activities in the Commonwealth. These transfers include, among others, entitlements for previously performed services, or those resulting from contributions to programs such as Social Security, Veterans’ Benefits, Medicare and U.S. Civil Service retirement pensions, as well as grants such as Nutritional Assistance Program grants and Pell Grant scholarships for higher education. There is considerable uncertainty about which federal policy changes may be enacted in the coming years and the economic impact of those changes. Due to the Commonwealth’s dependence on federal transfers, any actions that reduce or alter these transfers may cause increased fiscal stress in Puerto Rico, which may have a negative impact on the value of the Commonwealth’s municipal securities.
The Commonwealth’s retirement systems, which include the Employees Retirement System, the Teachers Retirement System, and the Judiciary Retirement System, are severely underfunded and are projected to deplete their assets in the near future. To help address ongoing substantial funding gaps, the Legislative Assembly enacted laws in 2017 to reform the operation and funding of the Pension Systems, which eliminated employer contributions. The Commonwealth’s pension systems operate on a “pay-as-you-go” basis, and the General Fund has assumed any payments that the pension systems could not make. As a result, the Commonwealth may have fewer resources for other priorities, including payments on its outstanding debt obligations. Alternatively, the Commonwealth may be forced to
16

raise revenue or issue additional debt. Either outcome could increase the pressure on the Commonwealth’s budget, which could have an adverse impact on a Fund’s investments in Puerto Rico.
The Commonwealth’s consolidated outstanding debt and pension liabilities have grown considerably in recent years, with more than $70 billion in financial debt and more than $50 billion in pension liabilities. As a result, in 2017, the Oversight Board filed petitions pursuant to Title III of PROMESA in federal court on behalf the Commonwealth and certain of its instrumentalities, including the Puerto Rico Sales Tax Financing Corporation (“COFINA”), the Employee Retirement System, the Puerto Rico Highways and Transportation Authority, and the Puerto Rico Electric Power Utility (“PREPA”), to begin proceedings to restructure their outstanding debt. As a result of these petitions, the ability of the creditors of the Commonwealth and its instrumentalities that have filed for Title III to take action with respect to outstanding obligations has been temporarily stayed. The judge assigned to oversee the Title III proceedings initiated a confidential mediation process administered by five federal judges.
With respect to the outstanding COFINA bonds, a Plan of Adjustment relating to the COFINA bonds was approved by the judge overseeing the Title III proceedings on February 4, 2019, which restructures approximately $17.0 billion of COFINA debt and provides the Commonwealth with an average annual savings of $456 million through 2057, an overall savings of approximately 32%. With respect to the litigation regarding Puerto Rico’s outstanding debt, creditors and Puerto Rico had agreed on a Plan of Adjustment, which was approved by the judge overseeing the Title III proceedings on January 18, 2022, that would restructure approximately $35 billion of its outstanding debt and other claims against Puerto Rico, the Public Buildings Authority, the Employee Retirement System, and certain other outstanding pension obligations. Under the Plan of Adjustment, Puerto Rico’s outstanding debt would be reduced by approximately 80% to just over $7.0 billion and annual debt service payments would be limited to a percentage of revenues.
With respect to PREPA’s Title III proceeding, a preliminary agreement has been reached between the PREPA bondholders, on one side and PREPA, the Oversight Board, and Fiscal Agency and Financial Advisory Authority, on the other side, to restructure the outstanding PREPA bonds. Under the preliminary agreement, PREPA’s obligations with respect to outstanding bonds would be reduced by up to 32.5%. However, the Oversight Board canceled the preliminary agreement in May 2022, and it is not possible to predict whether another restructuring agreement between the Oversight Board and PREPA will be reached.
In addition to the litigation described above, the Commonwealth, its officials and employees are named as defendants in legal proceedings that occur in the normal course of governmental operations. Some of these proceedings involve claims for substantial amounts, which if decided against the Commonwealth might require the Commonwealth to make significant future expenditures or substantially impair future revenue sources. Because of the prospective nature of these proceedings, it is not presently possible to predict the ultimate outcome of such proceedings, estimate the potential impact on the ability of the Commonwealth to pay debt service costs on its obligations, or determine what impact, if any, such proceedings may have on a Fund’s investments.
The 2022 fiscal plan was certified by the Oversight Board on January 27, 2022 (“2022 Fiscal Plan”). The 2022 Fiscal Plan forecasts that the Commonwealth’s economy would grow by 2.6% during 2022, due in part to budgetary reforms and economic relief provided in response to COVID-19. The 2022 Fiscal Plan contemplates approximately $84 billion in federal disaster relief to address damage caused by recent natural disasters and COVID-19. Apart from federal aid, the 2022 Fiscal Plan projects general fund revenues of approximately $12.7 billion. On June 30, 2022 the budget for fiscal year 2023 was certified, which provides for $12.4 billion in revenues. Against these revenues, the budget provides General Fund expenditures of approximately $11.2 billion.
In September 2017, two successive hurricanes — Irma and Maria — caused severe damage to Puerto Rico. The Commonwealth’s infrastructure was severely damaged by high winds and substantial flooding, including damage to the Commonwealth’s water, power, and telecommunications infrastructure, and resulted in more than 1 million people losing power. In addition, in December 2019 and January 2020, a series of earthquakes hit Puerto Rico and caused severe damage to the local infrastructure. The length of time needed to rebuild Puerto Rico’s infrastructure is unclear, and gross revenues were negatively impacted by the damage caused by the natural disasters. While Puerto Rico has received substantial federal aid for recovery efforts, there can be no assurances that the Commonwealth will receive enough support to rebuild and that future catastrophic weather events or natural disasters will not cause similar damage. Such events, as well as future public health emergencies, could negatively impact the payment of principal and interest, the marketability, liquidity, and value of securities issued by the Commonwealth held by a Fund.
17

Moreover, future weather events, natural disasters, or public health emergencies could negatively impact the ability of instrumentalities subject to Title III resolution proceedings to continue ongoing debt negotiations.
In addition, in early 2020, the Commonwealth was significantly impacted by a pandemic, which had a substantially adverse effect on the health of the population and economic activity. In March 2020, the Oversight Board authorized the Commonwealth to implement a $787 million relief package to fight the pandemic and its economic impacts, of which $500 million was incremental new spending made available through a special appropriation. Any reduction in the Commonwealth’s revenues as a result of the pandemic could have a negative ability on the Commonwealth to meet its debt service obligations, including with respect to debt held by a Fund. Further, Congress passed the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) in March 2020, which provided for approximately $2.2 trillion in disaster relief. Among other things, the CARES Act established the Coronavirus Relief Fund (“CRF”), from which Puerto Rico has received $2.2 billion. In March 2021, the American Rescue Plan was signed into law, which provides an additional $350 billion in emergency funding for state, local, territorial, and Tribal governments, including $4.5 billion specifically for relief to U.S. territories. It is not presently possible to predict whether the CRF and American Rescue Plan funds allocated to the Commonwealth will be sufficient to address its long-term economic challenges. The rate and level at which the federal government and the Commonwealth have taken on new debt could have a negative impact on their fiscal health, which could lead to prolonged challenges for their respective economies. A failure by Puerto Rico to meet its debt obligations could lead to a significant decline in the value, liquidity, and marketability of Fund investments.
As of the date of this Statement of Additional Information, S&P, Moody’s and Fitch each have withdrawn their unenhanced ratings of Puerto Rico’s general obligation debt. The withdrawals reflect only the views of the respective rating agency, an explanation of which may be obtained from each such rating agency. There is no assurance that the withdrawals will continue for any given period of time or that they will not be reversed by the rating agency if, in the judgment of such rating agency, circumstances so warrant. Withdrawals of general obligation bond ratings may have an adverse effect on the market prices of the securities issued by the Commonwealth and its political subdivisions, instrumentalities, and authorities.
Mortgage-Related Securities and Asset-Backed Securities
Mortgage-related securities are interests in pools of residential or commercial mortgage loans, including mortgage loans made by savings and loan institutions, mortgage bankers, commercial banks and others. Such mortgage loans may include non-performing loans, which are loans considered in default or close to default, and reperforming loans (“RPLs”), which are loans that have previously been delinquent but are current at the time securitized. Pools of mortgage loans are assembled as securities for sale to investors by various governmental, government-related and private organizations. See “Mortgage Pass-Through Securities.” Certain of the Funds also may invest in debt securities which are secured with collateral consisting of mortgage-related securities (see “Collateralized Mortgage Obligations”). The PIMCO Low Duration Credit Fund may invest up to 5% of its total assets in mortgage- or asset-backed securities.
The financial downturn of the late 2000s adversely affected the market for mortgage-related securities. The downturn saw dramatic declines in the housing market, with falling home prices and increasing foreclosures and unemployment, and significant asset write-downs by financial institutions. Between 2008 and 2009, the market for mortgage-related securities (and other asset-backed securities) was particularly adversely impacted by, among other factors, the failure of certain large financial institutions and the events leading to the conservatorship and the control by the U.S. Government of FNMA and FHLMC, as described below. These events, coupled with the general economic downturn, resulted in a substantial level of uncertainty in the financial markets, particularly with respect to mortgage-related investments. There is no assurance that the U.S. Government would take similar or further action to support the mortgage-related securities industry, as it has in the past, should the economy experience another downturn. Further, any future government actions may significantly alter the manner in which the mortgage-related securities market functions. Each of these factors could ultimately increase the risk that a Fund could realize losses on mortgage-related securities.
Mortgage Pass-Through Securities. Interests in pools of mortgage-related securities differ from other forms of debt securities, which normally provide for periodic payment of interest in fixed amounts with principal payments at maturity or specified call dates. Instead, these securities provide a monthly payment which consists of both interest and principal payments. In effect, these payments are a “pass-through” of the monthly payments made by the individual
18

borrowers on their residential or commercial mortgage loans, net of any fees paid to the issuer or guarantor of such securities. Additional payments are caused by repayments of principal resulting from the sale of the underlying property, refinancing or foreclosure, net of fees or costs which may be incurred. Some mortgage-related securities (such as securities issued by GNMA) are described as “modified pass-through.” These securities entitle the holder to receive all interest and principal payments owed on the mortgage pool, net of certain fees, at the scheduled payment dates regardless of whether or not the mortgagor actually makes the payment.
The rate of pre-payments on underlying mortgages will affect the price and volatility of a mortgage-related security, and may have the effect of shortening or extending the effective duration of the security relative to what was anticipated at the time of purchase. To the extent that unanticipated rates of pre-payment on underlying mortgages increase the effective duration of a mortgage-related security, the volatility of such security can be expected to increase. The residential mortgage market in the United States has experienced in the past, and could experience in the future, difficulties that may adversely affect the performance and market value of certain of the Fund’s mortgage-related investments. Delinquencies, defaults and losses on residential mortgage loans may increase substantially over certain periods. A decline in or flattening of housing values may exacerbate such delinquencies and losses on residential mortgages. Borrowers with adjustable rate mortgage loans are more sensitive to changes in interest rates, which affect their monthly mortgage payments, and may be unable to secure replacement mortgages at comparably low interest rates. As a result of the 2008 financial crisis, a number of residential mortgage loan originators experienced serious financial difficulties or bankruptcy. Owing largely to the foregoing, reduced investor demand for mortgage loans and mortgage-related securities and increased investor yield requirements caused limited liquidity in the secondary market for certain mortgage-related securities, which adversely affected the market value of mortgage-related securities. It is possible that such limited liquidity in such secondary markets could recur or worsen in the future.
Agency Mortgage-Related Securities. The principal governmental guarantor of mortgage-related securities is GNMA. GNMA is a wholly owned United States Government corporation within the Department of Housing and Urban Development. GNMA is authorized to guarantee, with the full faith and credit of the United States Government, the timely payment of principal and interest on securities issued by institutions approved by GNMA (such as savings and loan institutions, commercial banks and mortgage bankers) and backed by pools of mortgages insured by the Federal Housing Administration (the “FHA”), or guaranteed by the Department of Veterans Affairs (the “VA”).
Government-related guarantors (i.e., not backed by the full faith and credit of the United States Government) include FNMA and FHLMC. FNMA is a government-sponsored corporation. FNMA purchases conventional (i.e., not insured or guaranteed by any government agency) residential mortgages from a list of approved seller/servicers which include state and federally chartered savings and loan associations, mutual savings banks, commercial banks and credit unions and mortgage bankers. Pass-through securities issued by FNMA are guaranteed as to timely payment of principal and interest by FNMA, but are not backed by the full faith and credit of the United States Government. FHLMC was created by Congress in 1970 for the purpose of increasing the availability of mortgage credit for residential housing. It is a government-sponsored corporation that issues Participation Certificates (“PCs”), which are pass-through securities, each representing an undivided interest in a pool of residential mortgages. FHLMC guarantees the timely payment of interest and ultimate collection of principal, but PCs are not backed by the full faith and credit of the United States Government.
FNMA and FHLMC also securitize RPLs. For example, in FNMA’s case, the RPLs are single-family, fixed rate reperforming loans that generally were previously placed in a mortgage backed securities trust guaranteed by FNMA, purchased from the trust by FNMA and held as a distressed asset after four or more months of delinquency, and subsequently became current (i.e., performing) again. Such RPLs may have exited delinquency through efforts at reducing defaults (e.g., loan modification). In selecting RPLs for securitization, FNMA follows certain criteria related to length of time the loan has been performing, the type of loan (single-family, fixed rate), and the status of the loan as first lien, among other things. FNMA may include different loan structures and modification programs in the future.
On September 6, 2008, the FHFA placed FNMA and FHLMC into conservatorship. As the conservator, FHFA succeeded to all rights, titles, powers and privileges of FNMA and FHLMC and of any stockholder, officer or director of FNMA and FHLMC with respect to FNMA and FHLMC and the assets of FNMA and FHLMC. FHFA selected a new chief executive officer and chairman of the board of directors for each of FNMA and FHLMC.
19

In connection with the conservatorship, the U.S. Treasury entered into a Senior Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement with each of FNMA and FHLMC pursuant to which the U.S. Treasury will purchase up to an aggregate of $100 billion of each of FNMA and FHLMC to maintain a positive net worth in each enterprise. This agreement contains various covenants that severely limit each enterprise’s operations. In exchange for entering into these agreements, the U.S. Treasury received $1 billion of each enterprise’s senior preferred securities and warrants to purchase 79.9% of each enterprise’s common stock. In 2009, the U.S. Treasury announced that it was doubling the size of its commitment to each enterprise under the Senior Preferred Stock Program to $200 billion. The U.S. Treasury’s obligations under the Senior Preferred Stock Program are for an indefinite period of time for a maximum amount of $200 billion per enterprise. In 2009, the U.S. Treasury further amended the Senior Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement to allow the cap on the U.S. Treasury’s funding commitment to increase as necessary to accommodate any cumulative reduction in FNMA’s and FHLMC’s net worth through the end of 2012. In August 2012, the Senior Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement was further amended to, among other things, accelerate the wind down of the retained portfolio, terminate the requirement that FNMA and FHLMC each pay a 10% dividend annually on all amounts received under the funding commitment, and require the submission of an annual risk management plan to the U.S. Treasury.
FNMA and FHLMC are continuing to operate as going concerns while in conservatorship and each remain liable for all of its obligations, including its guaranty obligations, associated with its mortgage-backed securities. The Senior Preferred Stock Purchase Agreement is intended to enhance each of FNMA’s and FHLMC’s ability to meet its obligations. The FHFA has indicated that the conservatorship of each enterprise will end when the director of FHFA determines that FHFA’s plan to restore the enterprise to a safe and solvent condition has been completed.
Under the Federal Housing Finance Regulatory Reform Act of 2008 (the “Reform Act”), which was included as part of the Housing and Economic Recovery Act of 2008, FHFA, as conservator or receiver, has the power to repudiate any contract entered into by FNMA or FHLMC prior to FHFA’s appointment as conservator or receiver, as applicable, if FHFA determines, in its sole discretion, that performance of the contract is burdensome and that repudiation of the contract promotes the orderly administration of FNMA’s or FHLMC’s affairs. The Reform Act requires FHFA to exercise its right to repudiate any contract within a reasonable period of time after its appointment as conservator or receiver.
FHFA, in its capacity as conservator, has indicated that it has no intention to repudiate the guaranty obligations of FNMA or FHLMC because FHFA views repudiation as incompatible with the goals of the conservatorship. However, in the event that FHFA, as conservator or if it is later appointed as receiver for FNMA or FHLMC, were to repudiate any such guaranty obligation, the conservatorship or receivership estate, as applicable, would be liable for actual direct compensatory damages in accordance with the provisions of the Reform Act. Any such liability could be satisfied only to the extent of FNMA’s or FHLMC’s assets available therefor.
In the event of repudiation, the payments of interest to holders of FNMA or FHLMC mortgage-backed securities would be reduced if payments on the mortgage loans represented in the mortgage loan groups related to such mortgage-backed securities are not made by the borrowers or advanced by the servicer. Any actual direct compensatory damages for repudiating these guaranty obligations may not be sufficient to offset any shortfalls experienced by such mortgage-backed security holders.
Further, in its capacity as conservator or receiver, FHFA has the right to transfer or sell any asset or liability of FNMA or FHLMC without any approval, assignment or consent. Although FHFA has stated that it has no present intention to do so, if FHFA, as conservator or receiver, were to transfer any such guaranty obligation to another party, holders of FNMA or FHLMC mortgage-backed securities would have to rely on that party for satisfaction of the guaranty obligation and would be exposed to the credit risk of that party.
In addition, certain rights provided to holders of mortgage-backed securities issued by FNMA and FHLMC under the operative documents related to such securities may not be enforced against FHFA, or enforcement of such rights may be delayed, during the conservatorship or any future receivership. The operative documents for FNMA and FHLMC mortgage-backed securities may provide (or with respect to securities issued prior to the date of the appointment of the conservator may have provided) that upon the occurrence of an event of default on the part of FNMA or FHLMC, in its capacity as guarantor, which includes the appointment of a conservator or receiver, holders of such mortgage-backed securities have the right to replace FNMA or FHLMC as trustee if the requisite percentage of mortgage-backed securities holders consent. The Reform Act prevents mortgage-backed security holders from
20

enforcing such rights if the event of default arises solely because a conservator or receiver has been appointed. The Reform Act also provides that no person may exercise any right or power to terminate, accelerate or declare an event of default under certain contracts to which FNMA or FHLMC is a party, or obtain possession of or exercise control over any property of FNMA or FHLMC, or affect any contractual rights of FNMA or FHLMC, without the approval of FHFA, as conservator or receiver, for a period of 45 or 90 days following the appointment of FHFA as conservator or receiver, respectively.
FHFA and the White House have made public statements regarding plans to consider ending the conservatorships of FNMA and FHLMC. In the event that FNMA and FHLMC are taken out of conservatorship, it is unclear how the capital structure of FNMA and FHLMC would be constructed and what effects, if any, there may be on FNMA’s and FHLMC’s creditworthiness and guarantees of certain mortgage-backed securities. It is also unclear whether the U.S. Treasury would continue to enforce its rights or perform its obligations under the Senior Preferred Stock Programs. Should FNMA’s and FHLMC’s conservatorship end, there could be an adverse impact on the value of their securities, which could cause losses to a Fund.
In June 2019, under the Single Security Initiative, FNMA and FHLMC started issuing UMBS in place of their current offerings of to-be-announced (“TBA”) eligible securities. The Single Security Initiative seeks to support the overall liquidity of the TBA market and aligns the characteristics of FNMA and FHLMC certificates. The effects that the Single Security Initiative may have on the market for TBA and other mortgage-backed securities are uncertain.
Government-Sponsored Enterprise (“GSE”) Credit Risk Transfer Securities and GSE Credit-Linked Notes. GSE credit risk transfer securities are notes issued directly by a GSE, such as FNMA or FHLMC, and GSE credit-linked notes are notes issued by a special purpose vehicle (“SPV”) sponsored by a GSE. Investors in these notes provide credit protection for the applicable GSE’s mortgage-related securities guarantee obligations. In this regard, a noteholder receives compensation for providing credit protection to the GSE and, when a specified level of losses on the relevant mortgage loans occurs, the principal balance and certain payments owed to the noteholder may be reduced. In addition, noteholders may receive a return of principal prior to the stated maturity date reflecting prepayment on the underlying mortgage loans and in any other circumstances that may be set forth in the applicable loan agreement. The notes may be issued in different tranches representing the issuance of different levels of credit risk protection to the GSE on the underlying mortgage loans and the notes are not secured by the reference mortgage loans.
GSE Credit Risk Transfer Securities Structure. In this structure, the GSE receives the note sale proceeds. The GSE pays noteholders monthly interest payments and a return of principal on the stated maturity date based on the initial investment amount, as reduced by any covered losses on the reference mortgage loans.
GSE Credit-Linked Notes Structure. In this structure, the SPV receives the note sale proceeds and the SPV’s obligations to the noteholder are collateralized by the note sale proceeds. The SPV invests the proceeds in cash or other short-term assets. The SPV also enters into a credit protection agreement with the GSE pursuant to which the GSE pays the SPV monthly premium payments and the SPV compensates the GSE for covered losses on the reference mortgage loans. The SPV pays noteholders monthly interest payments based on the premium payments paid by the GSE and the performance on the invested note sale proceeds. The noteholders also receive a return of principal on a stated maturity date based on the initial investment amount, as reduced by any covered losses on the reference mortgage loans paid by the SPV or the GSE.
Risks Related to GSE Credit Risk Transfer Securities and GSE Credit-Linked Notes. GSE credit risk transfer securities are general obligations issued by a GSE and are unguaranteed and unsecured. GSE credit-linked notes are similar, except that the notes are issued by an SPV, rather than by a GSE, and the obligations of the SPV are collateralized by the note proceeds as invested by the SPV, which are invested in cash or short-term securities. Although both GSE credit risk transfer securities and GSE credit-linked notes are unguaranteed, obligations of an SPV are also not backstopped by the Department of Treasury or an obligation of a GSE.
The risks associated with these investments are different than the risks associated with an investment in mortgage-backed securities issued by GSEs or a private issuer. If a GSE fails to pay principal or interest on its credit risk transfers or goes through a bankruptcy, insolvency or similar proceeding, holders of such credit risk transfers will have no direct recourse to the underlying mortgage loans. In addition, some or all of the mortgage default risk associated with the underlying mortgage loans is transferred to noteholders. As a result, there can be no assurance that
21

losses will not occur on an investment in GSE credit risk transfer securities or GSE credit-linked notes and Funds investing in these instruments may be exposed to the risk of loss on their investment. In addition, these investments are subject to prepayment risk.
In the case of GSE credit-linked notes, if a GSE fails to make a premium or other required payment to the SPV, the SPV may be unable to pay a noteholder the entire amount of interest or principal payable to the noteholder. In the event of a default on the obligations to noteholders, the SPV’s principal and interest payment obligations to noteholders will be subordinated to the SPV’s credit protection payment obligations to the GSE. Payment of such amounts to noteholders depends on the cash available in the trust from the loan proceeds and the GSE’s premium payments.
Any income earned by the SPV on investments of loan proceeds is expected to be less than the interest payments amounts to be paid to noteholders of the GSE credit-linked notes and interest payments to noteholders will be reduced if the GSE fails to make premium payments to the SPV. An SPV’s investment of loan proceeds may also be concentrated in the securities of a few number of issuers. A noteholder bears any investment losses on the allocable portion of the loan proceeds.
An SPV that issues GSE credit-linked notes may fall within the definition of a “commodity pool” under the Commodity Exchange Act. Certain GSEs are not registered as commodity pool operators in reliance on CFTC no-action relief, subject to certain conditions similar to those under CFTC Rule 4.13(a)(3), with respect to the operation of the SPV. If the GSE or SPV fails to comply with such conditions, noteholders that are investment vehicles, such as the Funds (as applicable), may become ineligible to claim an exclusion from CFTC regulation, to the extent they are currently eligible to claim the exclusion. These Funds may consider steps in order to continue to qualify for exemption from CFTC regulation, or may determine to operate subject to CFTC regulation, which could cause such a Fund to incur increased costs.
Privately Issued Mortgage-Related Securities. Commercial banks, savings and loan institutions, private mortgage insurance companies, mortgage bankers and other secondary market issuers also create pass-through pools of conventional residential mortgage loans. Such issuers may be the originators and/or servicers of the underlying mortgage loans as well as the guarantors of the mortgage-related securities. Pools created by such non-governmental issuers generally offer a higher rate of interest than government and government-related pools because there are no direct or indirect government or agency guarantees of payments in the former pools. However, timely payment of interest and principal of these pools may be supported by various forms of insurance or guarantees, including individual loan, title, pool and hazard insurance and letters of credit, which may be issued by governmental entities or private insurers. Such insurance and guarantees and the creditworthiness of the issuers thereof will be considered in determining whether a mortgage-related security meets the Trust’s investment quality standards. There can be no assurance that insurers or guarantors can meet their obligations under the insurance policies or guarantee arrangements. The Funds may buy mortgage-related securities without insurance or guarantees if, through an examination of the loan experience and practices of the originators/servicers and poolers, PIMCO determines that the securities meet the Trust’s quality standards. Securities issued by certain private organizations may not be readily marketable. Please refer to “Illiquid Investments” below for further discussion of regulatory considerations and constraints relating to investment liquidity.
Privately issued mortgage-related securities are not subject to the same underwriting requirements for the underlying mortgages that are applicable to those mortgage-related securities that have a government or government-sponsored entity guarantee. As a result, the mortgage loans underlying privately issued mortgage-related securities may, and frequently do, have less favorable collateral, credit risk or other underwriting characteristics than government or government-sponsored mortgage-related securities and have wider variances in a number of terms including interest rate, term, size, purpose and borrower characteristics. Mortgage pools underlying privately issued mortgage-related securities more frequently include second mortgages, high loan-to-value ratio mortgages and manufactured housing loans, in addition to commercial mortgages and other types of mortgages where a government or government-sponsored entity guarantee is not available. The coupon rates and maturities of the underlying mortgage loans in a privately-issued mortgage-related securities pool may vary to a greater extent than those included in a government guaranteed pool, and the pool may include subprime mortgage loans. Subprime loans are loans made to borrowers with weakened credit histories or with a lower capacity to make timely payments on their loans. For these reasons, the loans underlying these securities have had in many cases higher default rates than those loans that meet government underwriting requirements.
22

The risk of non-payment is greater for mortgage-related securities that are backed by loans that were originated under weak underwriting standards, including loans made to borrowers with limited means to make repayment. A level of risk exists for all loans, although, historically, the poorest performing loans have been those classified as subprime. Other types of privately issued mortgage-related securities, such as those classified as pay-option adjustable rate or Alt-A have also performed poorly. Even loans classified as prime have experienced higher levels of delinquencies and defaults. The substantial decline in real property values across the U.S. has exacerbated the level of losses that investors in privately issued mortgage-related securities have experienced. It is not certain when these trends may reverse. Market factors that may adversely affect mortgage loan repayment include adverse economic conditions, unemployment, a decline in the value of real property, or an increase in interest rates.
Privately issued mortgage-related securities are not traded on an exchange and there may be a limited market for the securities, especially when there is a perceived weakness in the mortgage and real estate market sectors. Without an active trading market, mortgage-related securities held in a Fund’s portfolio may be particularly difficult to value because of the complexities involved in assessing the value of the underlying mortgage loans.
The Funds may purchase privately issued mortgage-related securities that are originated, packaged and serviced by third party entities. It is possible these third parties could have interests that are in conflict with the holders of mortgage-related securities, and such holders (such as a Fund) could have rights against the third parties or their affiliates. For example, if a loan originator, servicer or its affiliates engaged in negligence or willful misconduct in carrying out its duties, then a holder of the mortgage-related security could seek recourse against the originator/servicer or its affiliates, as applicable. Also, as a loan originator/servicer, the originator/servicer or its affiliates may make certain representations and warranties regarding the quality of the mortgages and properties underlying a mortgage-related security. If one or more of those representations or warranties is false, then the holders of the mortgage-related securities (such as a Fund) could trigger an obligation of the originator/servicer or its affiliates, as applicable, to repurchase the mortgages from the issuing trust.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, many of the third parties that are legally bound by trust and other documents have failed to perform their respective duties, as stipulated in such trust and other documents, and investors have had limited success in enforcing terms. To the extent third party entities involved with privately issued mortgage-related securities are involved in litigation relating to the securities, actions may be taken that are adverse to the interests of holders of the mortgage-related securities, including the Funds. For example, third parties may seek to withhold proceeds due to holders of the mortgage-related securities, including the Funds, to cover legal or related costs. Any such action could result in losses to the Funds.
Mortgage-related securities that are issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government, its agencies or instrumentalities, are not subject to the Funds' industry concentration restrictions, set forth under “Investment Restrictions” by virtue of the exclusion from that test available to all U.S. Government securities. The assets underlying privately issued mortgage-related securities may be represented by a portfolio of residential or commercial mortgages (including both whole mortgage loans and mortgage participation interests that may be senior or junior in terms of priority of repayment) or portfolios of mortgage pass-through securities issued or guaranteed by GNMA, FNMA or FHLMC. Mortgage loans underlying a mortgage-related security may in turn be insured or guaranteed by the FHA or the VA. In the case of privately issued mortgage-related securities whose underlying assets are neither U.S. Government securities nor U.S. Government-insured mortgages, to the extent that real properties securing such assets may be located in the same geographical region, the security may be subject to a greater risk of default than other comparable securities in the event of adverse economic, political or business developments that may affect such region and, ultimately, the ability of residential homeowners to make payments of principal and interest on the underlying mortgages.
PIMCO seeks to manage the portion of any Fund’s assets committed to privately issued mortgage-related securities in a manner consistent with the Fund’s investment objective, policies and overall portfolio risk profile. In determining whether and how much to invest in privately issued mortgage-related securities, and how to allocate those assets, PIMCO will consider a number of factors. These include, but are not limited to: (1) the nature of the borrowers (e.g., residential vs. commercial); (2) the collateral loan type (e.g., for residential: First Lien - Jumbo/Prime, First Lien - Alt-A, First Lien - Subprime, First Lien - Pay-Option or Second Lien; for commercial: Conduit, Large Loan or Single Asset / Single Borrower); and (3) in the case of residential loans, whether they are fixed rate or adjustable mortgages. Each of these criteria can cause privately issued mortgage-related securities to have differing primary economic characteristics and distinguishable risk factors and performance characteristics.
23

Collateralized Mortgage Obligations (“CMOs”). A CMO is a debt obligation of a legal entity that is collateralized by mortgages and divided into classes. Similar to a bond, interest and prepaid principal is paid, in most cases, on a monthly basis. CMOs may be collateralized by whole mortgage loans or private mortgage bonds, but are more typically collateralized by portfolios of mortgage pass-through securities guaranteed by GNMA, FHLMC, or FNMA, and their income streams.
CMOs are structured into multiple classes, often referred to as “tranches,” with each class bearing a different stated maturity and entitled to a different schedule for payments of principal and interest, including pre-payments. Actual maturity and average life will depend upon the pre-payment experience of the collateral. In the case of certain CMOs (known as “sequential pay” CMOs), payments of principal received from the pool of underlying mortgages, including pre-payments, are applied to the classes of CMOs in the order of their respective final distribution dates. Thus, no payment of principal will be made to any class of sequential pay CMOs until all other classes having an earlier final distribution date have been paid in full.
In a typical CMO transaction, a corporation (“issuer”) issues multiple series (e.g., A, B, C, Z) of CMO bonds (“Bonds”). Proceeds of the Bond offering are used to purchase mortgages or mortgage pass-through certificates (“Collateral”). The Collateral is pledged to a third party trustee as security for the Bonds. Principal and interest payments from the Collateral are used to pay principal on the Bonds in the order A, B, C, Z. The Series A, B and C Bonds all bear current interest. Interest on the Series Z Bond is accrued and added to principal and a like amount is paid as principal on the Series A, B, or C Bond currently being paid off. When the Series A, B and C Bonds are paid in full, interest and principal on the Series Z Bond begins to be paid currently. CMOs may be less liquid and may exhibit greater price volatility than other types of mortgage- or asset-backed securities.
As CMOs have evolved, some classes of CMO bonds have become more common. For example, the Funds may invest in parallel-pay and planned amortization class (“PAC”) CMOs and multi-class pass-through certificates. Parallel-pay CMOs and multi-class pass-through certificates are structured to provide payments of principal on each payment date to more than one class. These simultaneous payments are taken into account in calculating the stated maturity date or final distribution date of each class, which, as with other CMO and multi-class pass-through structures, must be retired by its stated maturity date or final distribution date but may be retired earlier. PACs generally require payments of a specified amount of principal on each payment date. PACs are parallel-pay CMOs with the required principal amount on such securities having the highest priority after interest has been paid to all classes. Any CMO or multi-class pass through structure that includes PAC securities must also have support tranches—known as support bonds, companion bonds or non-PAC bonds—which lend or absorb principal cash flows to allow the PAC securities to maintain their stated maturities and final distribution dates within a range of actual prepayment experience. These support tranches are subject to a higher level of maturity risk compared to other mortgage-related securities, and usually provide a higher yield to compensate investors. If principal cash flows are received in amounts outside a pre-determined range such that the support bonds cannot lend or absorb sufficient cash flows to the PAC securities as intended, the PAC securities are subject to heightened maturity risk. Consistent with a Fund’s investment objectives and policies, PIMCO may invest in various tranches of CMO bonds, including support bonds.
Commercial Mortgage-Backed Securities. Commercial mortgage-backed securities include securities that reflect an interest in, and are secured by, mortgage loans on commercial real property. Many of the risks of investing in commercial mortgage-backed securities reflect the risks of investing in the real estate securing the underlying mortgage loans. These risks reflect the effects of local and other economic conditions on real estate markets, the ability of tenants to make loan payments, and the ability of a property to attract and retain tenants. Commercial mortgage-backed securities may be less liquid and exhibit greater price volatility than other types of mortgage- or asset-backed securities.
Other Mortgage-Related Securities. Other mortgage-related securities include securities other than those described above that directly or indirectly represent a participation in, or are secured by and payable from, mortgage loans on real property, including mortgage dollar rolls, CMO residuals or stripped mortgage-backed securities (“SMBS”). Other mortgage-related securities may be equity or debt securities issued by agencies or instrumentalities of the U.S. Government or by private originators of, or investors in, mortgage loans, including savings and loan associations, homebuilders, mortgage banks, commercial banks, investment banks, partnerships, trusts and special purpose entities of the foregoing.
24

Mortgage-related securities include, among other things, securities that reflect an interest in reverse mortgages. In a reverse mortgage, a lender makes a loan to a homeowner based on the homeowner’s equity in his or her home. While a homeowner must be age 62 or older to qualify for a reverse mortgage, reverse mortgages may have no income restrictions. Repayment of the interest or principal for the loan is generally not required until the homeowner dies, sells the home, or ceases to use the home as his or her primary residence.
There are three general types of reverse mortgages: (1) single-purpose reverse mortgages, which are offered by certain state and local government agencies and nonprofit organizations; (2) federally-insured reverse mortgages, which are backed by the U. S. Department of Housing and Urban Development; and (3) proprietary reverse mortgages, which are privately offered loans. A mortgage-related security may be backed by a single type of reverse mortgage. Reverse mortgage-related securities include agency and privately issued mortgage-related securities. The principal government guarantor of reverse mortgage-related securities is GNMA.
Reverse mortgage-related securities may be subject to risks different than other types of mortgage-related securities due to the unique nature of the underlying loans. The date of repayment for such loans is uncertain and may occur sooner or later than anticipated. The timing of payments for the corresponding mortgage-related security may be uncertain. Because reverse mortgages are offered only to persons 62 and older and there may be no income restrictions, the loans may react differently than traditional home loans to market events. Additionally, there can be no assurance that service providers to reverse mortgage trusts (“RMTs”) will diligently and appropriately execute their duties with respect to servicing such trusts. As a result, investors (which may include the Funds) in notes issued by RMTs may be deprived of payments to which they are entitled. This could result in losses to the Funds. Investors, including the Funds, may determine to pursue negotiations or legal claims or otherwise seek compensation from RMT service providers in certain instances. This may involve the Funds incurring costs and expenses associated with such actions.
CMO Residuals. CMO residuals are mortgage securities issued by agencies or instrumentalities of the U.S. Government or by private originators of, or investors in, mortgage loans, including savings and loan associations, homebuilders, mortgage banks, commercial banks, investment banks and special purpose entities of the foregoing.
The cash flow generated by the mortgage assets underlying a series of CMOs is applied first to make required payments of principal and interest on the CMOs and second to pay the related administrative expenses and any management fee of the issuer. The residual in a CMO structure generally represents the interest in any excess cash flow remaining after making the foregoing payments. Each payment of such excess cash flow to a holder of the related CMO residual represents income and/or a return of capital. The amount of residual cash flow resulting from a CMO will depend on, among other things, the characteristics of the mortgage assets, the coupon rate of each class of CMO, prevailing interest rates, the amount of administrative expenses and the pre-payment experience on the mortgage assets. In particular, the yield to maturity on CMO residuals is extremely sensitive to pre-payments on the related underlying mortgage assets, in the same manner as an interest-only (“IO”) class of stripped mortgage-backed securities. See “Stripped Mortgage-Backed Securities” below. In addition, if a series of a CMO includes a class that bears interest at an adjustable rate, the yield to maturity on the related CMO residual will also be extremely sensitive to changes in the level of the index upon which interest rate adjustments are based. As described below with respect to stripped mortgage-backed securities, in certain circumstances a Fund may fail to recoup fully its initial investment in a CMO residual.
CMO residuals are generally purchased and sold by institutional investors through several investment banking firms acting as brokers or dealers. Transactions in CMO residuals are generally completed only after careful review of the characteristics of the securities in question. In addition, CMO residuals may, or pursuant to an exemption therefrom, may not have been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”). CMO residuals, whether or not registered under the 1933 Act, may be subject to certain restrictions on transferability. Please refer to “Illiquid Investments” below for further discussion of regulatory considerations and constraints relating to investment liquidity.
Adjustable Rate Mortgage-Backed Securities. Adjustable rate mortgage-backed securities (“ARMBSs”) have interest rates that reset at periodic intervals. Acquiring ARMBSs permits a Fund to participate in increases in prevailing current interest rates through periodic adjustments in the coupons of mortgages underlying the pool on which ARMBSs are based. Such ARMBSs generally have higher current yield and lower price fluctuations than is the case with more traditional fixed income debt securities of comparable rating and maturity. In addition, when
25

prepayments of principal are made on the underlying mortgages during periods of rising interest rates, a Fund can reinvest the proceeds of such prepayments at rates higher than those at which they were previously invested. Mortgages underlying most ARMBSs, however, have limits on the allowable annual or lifetime increases that can be made in the interest rate that the mortgagor pays. Therefore, if current interest rates rise above such limits over the period of the limitation, a Fund, when holding an ARMBS, does not benefit from further increases in interest rates. Moreover, when interest rates are in excess of coupon rates (i.e., the rates being paid by mortgagors) of the mortgages, ARMBSs behave more like fixed income securities and less like adjustable rate securities and are subject to the risks associated with fixed income securities. In addition, during periods of rising interest rates, increases in the coupon rate of adjustable rate mortgages generally lag current market interest rates slightly, thereby creating the potential for capital depreciation on such securities.
Stripped Mortgage-Backed Securities. SMBS are derivative multi-class mortgage securities. SMBS may be issued by agencies or instrumentalities of the U.S. Government, or by private originators of, or investors in, mortgage loans, including savings and loan associations, mortgage banks, commercial banks, investment banks and special purpose entities of the foregoing.
SMBS are usually structured with two classes that receive different proportions of the interest and principal distributions on a pool of mortgage assets. A common type of SMBS will have one class receiving some of the interest and most of the principal from the mortgage assets, while the other class will receive most of the interest and the remainder of the principal. In the most extreme case, one class will receive all of the interest (the “IO” class), while the other class will receive all of the principal (the principal-only or “PO” class). The yield to maturity on an IO class is extremely sensitive to the rate of principal payments (including pre-payments) on the related underlying mortgage assets, and a rapid rate of principal payments may have a material adverse effect on a Fund’s yield to maturity from these securities. If the underlying mortgage assets experience greater than anticipated pre-payments of principal, a Fund may fail to recoup some or all of its initial investment in these securities even if the security is in one of the highest rating categories.
Collateralized Bond Obligations, Collateralized Loan Obligations and other Collateralized Debt Obligations. The Funds (except the PIMCO Government Money Market and PIMCO Total Return IV Funds) may invest in each of collateralized bond obligations (“CBOs”), collateralized loan obligations (“CLOs”), other collateralized debt obligations (“CDOs”) and other similarly structured securities. CBOs, CLOs and other CDOs are types of asset-backed securities. A CBO is a trust which is often backed by a diversified pool of high risk, below investment grade fixed income securities. The collateral can be from many different types of fixed income securities such as high yield debt, residential privately issued mortgage-related securities, commercial privately issued mortgage-related securities, trust preferred securities and emerging market debt. A CLO is a trust typically collateralized by a pool of loans, which may include, among others, domestic and foreign senior secured loans, senior unsecured loans, and subordinate corporate loans, including loans that may be rated below investment grade or equivalent unrated loans. Other CDOs are trusts backed by other types of assets representing obligations of various parties. CBOs, CLOs and other CDOs may charge management fees and administrative expenses.
For CBOs, CLOs and other CDOs, the cash flows from the trust are split into two or more portions, called tranches, varying in risk and yield. The riskiest portion is the “equity” tranche which bears the bulk of defaults from the bonds or loans in the trust and serves to protect the other, more senior tranches from default in all but the most severe circumstances. Since they are partially protected from defaults, senior tranches from a CBO trust, CLO trust or trust of another CDO typically have higher ratings and lower yields than their underlying securities, and can be rated investment grade. Despite the protection from the equity tranche, CBO, CLO or other CDO tranches can experience substantial losses due to actual defaults, increased sensitivity to defaults due to collateral default and disappearance of protecting tranches, market anticipation of defaults, as well as aversion to CBO, CLO or other CDO securities as a class.
The risks of an investment in a CBO, CLO or other CDO depend largely on the type of the collateral securities and the class of the instrument in which a Fund invests. Normally, CBOs, CLOs and other CDOs are privately offered and sold, and thus, are not registered under the securities laws. Please refer to “Illiquid Investments” below for further discussion of regulatory considerations and constraints relating to investment liquidity. In addition to the normal risks associated with fixed income securities discussed elsewhere in this Statement of Additional Information and the Funds' Prospectuses (e.g., prepayment risk, credit risk, liquidity risk, market risk, structural risk, legal risk and interest rate risk (which may be exacerbated if the interest rate payable on a structured financing changes based on multiples of
26

changes in interest rates or inversely to changes in interest rates)), CBOs, CLOs and other CDOs carry additional risks including, but are not limited to: (i) the possibility that distributions from collateral securities will not be adequate to make interest or other payments; (ii) the quality of the collateral may decline in value or default; (iii) the risk that a Fund may invest in CBOs, CLOs or other CDOs that are subordinate to other classes; and (iv) the complex structure of the security may not be fully understood at the time of investment and may produce disputes with the issuer or unexpected investment results.
Asset-Backed Securities. Asset-backed securities (“ABS”) are bonds backed by pools of loans or other receivables. ABS are created from many types of assets, including, but not limited to, auto loans, accounts receivable such as credit card receivables and hospital account receivables, home equity loans, student loans, boat loans, mobile home loans, recreational vehicle loans, manufactured housing loans, aircraft leases, computer leases and syndicated bank loans. ABS are issued through special purpose vehicles that are bankruptcy remote from the issuer of the collateral. The credit quality of an ABS transaction depends on the performance of the underlying assets. To protect ABS investors from the possibility that some borrowers could miss payments or even default on their loans, ABS include various forms of credit enhancement.
Some ABS, particularly home equity loan transactions, are subject to interest-rate risk and prepayment risk. A change in interest rates can affect the pace of payments on the underlying loans, which in turn, affects total return on the securities. ABS also carry credit or default risk. If many borrowers on the underlying loans default, losses could exceed the credit enhancement level and result in losses to investors in an ABS transaction. Additionally, the value of ABS is subject to risks associated with the servicers’ performance. In some circumstances, a servicer’s or originator’s mishandling of documentation related to the underlying collateral (e.g., failure to properly document a security interest in the underlying collateral) may affect the rights of the security holders in and to the underlying collateral. Finally, ABS have structure risk due to a unique characteristic known as early amortization, or early payout, risk. Built into the structure of most ABS are triggers for early payout, designed to protect investors from losses. These triggers are unique to each transaction and can include: a big rise in defaults on the underlying loans, a sharp drop in the credit enhancement level, or even the bankruptcy of the originator. Once early amortization begins, all incoming loan payments (after expenses are paid) are used to pay investors as quickly as possible based upon a predetermined priority of payment.
Consistent with a Fund’s investment objectives and policies, PIMCO also may invest in other types of asset-backed securities.
Real Estate Assets and Related Derivatives
Certain Funds (in particular, the PIMCO RealEstateRealReturn Strategy Fund) may generally gain exposure to the real estate sector by investing in real estate-linked derivatives, real estate investment trusts (“REITs”), and common, preferred and convertible securities of issuers in real estate-related industries. The Funds may also invest in loans or other investments secured by real estate and may, as a result of default, foreclosure or otherwise, take possession of and hold real estate as a direct owner (see “Loans and Other Indebtedness, Loan Participations and Assignments” below). Each of these types of investments are subject, directly or indirectly, to risks associated with ownership of real estate, including changes in the general economic climate or local conditions (such as an oversupply of space or a reduction in demand for space), loss to casualty or condemnation, increases in property taxes and operating expenses, zoning law amendments, changes in interest rates, overbuilding and increased competition, including competition based on rental rates, variations in market value, changes in the financial condition of tenants, changes in operating costs, attractiveness and location of the properties, adverse changes in the real estate markets generally or in specific sectors of the real estate industry and possible environmental liabilities. Real estate-related investments may entail leverage and may be highly volatile.
REITs are pooled investment vehicles that own, and typically operate, income-producing real estate. If a REIT meets certain requirements, including distributing to shareholders substantially all of its taxable income (other than net capital gains), then it is generally not taxed on the income distributed to shareholders. REITs are subject to management fees and other expenses, and so the Funds that invest in REITs will bear their proportionate share of the costs of the REITs’ operations. Dividends received by a Fund from a REIT generally will not constitute qualified dividend income. REITs may not provide complete tax information to a Fund until after the calendar year-end.  Consequently, because of the delay, it may be necessary for a Fund to request permission from the IRS to extend the deadline for issuance of Form 1099-DIV.
27

There are three general categories of REITs: Equity REITs, Mortgage REITs and Hybrid REITs. Equity REITs invest primarily in direct fee ownership or leasehold ownership of real property; they derive most of their income from rents. Mortgage REITs invest mostly in mortgages on real estate, which may secure construction, development or long-term loans, and the main source of their income is mortgage interest payments. Hybrid REITs hold both ownership and mortgage interests in real estate.
Along with the risks common to different types of real estate-related securities, REITs, no matter the type, involve additional risk factors. These include poor performance by the REIT’s manager, changes to the tax laws, and failure by the REIT to qualify for tax-free distribution of income or exemption under the 1940 Act. Furthermore, REITs are not diversified and are heavily dependent on cash flow. Investments in REIT equity securities could require a Fund to accrue and distribute income not yet received by the Fund. On the other hand, investments in REIT equity securities can also result in a Fund’s receipt of cash in excess of the REIT’s earnings; if the Fund distributes such amounts, such distribution could constitute a return of capital to Fund shareholders for federal income tax purposes. A Fund or some of the REITs in which a Fund may invest may be permitted to hold senior or residual interests in real estate mortgage investment conduits (“REMICs”) or debt or equity interests in taxable mortgage pools (“TMPs”). A Fund may also hold interests in “Re-REMICs,” which are interests in securitizations formed by the contribution of asset backed or other similar securities into a trust which then issues securities in various tranches. The Funds may participate in the creation of a Re-REMIC by contributing assets to the trust and receiving junior and/or senior securities in return. An interest in a Re-REMIC security may be riskier than the securities originally held by and contributed to the trust, and the holders of the Re-REMIC securities will bear the costs associated with the securitization.
Bank Obligations
Bank obligations in which the Funds may invest include certificates of deposit, bankers’ acceptances, and fixed time deposits. Certificates of deposit are negotiable certificates issued against funds deposited in a commercial bank for a definite period of time and earning a specified return. Bankers’ acceptances are negotiable drafts or bills of exchange, normally drawn by an importer or exporter to pay for specific merchandise, which are “accepted” by a bank, meaning, in effect, that the bank unconditionally agrees to pay the face value of the instrument on maturity. Fixed time deposits are bank obligations payable at a stated maturity date and bearing interest at a fixed rate. Fixed time deposits may be withdrawn on demand by the investor, but may be subject to early withdrawal penalties which vary depending upon market conditions and the remaining maturity of the obligation. There are no contractual restrictions on the right to transfer a beneficial interest in a fixed time deposit to a third party, although there is no market for such deposits. A Fund may limit investments in fixed time deposits which: (1) are not subject to prepayment; or (2) provide for withdrawal penalties upon prepayment (other than overnight deposits). Please refer to “Illiquid Investments” below for further discussion of regulatory considerations and constraints relating to investment liquidity.
The activities of U.S. banks and most foreign banks are subject to comprehensive regulations which, in the case of U.S. regulations, have undergone substantial changes in the past decade and are currently subject to legislative and regulatory scrutiny. The enactment of new legislation or regulations, as well as changes in interpretation and enforcement of current laws, may affect the manner of operations and profitability of U.S. and foreign banks. Significant developments in the U.S. banking industry have included increased competition from other types of financial institutions, increased acquisition activity and geographic expansion. Banks may be particularly susceptible to certain economic factors, such as interest rate changes and adverse developments in the market for real estate. Fiscal and monetary policy and general economic cycles can affect the availability and cost of funds, loan demand and asset quality and thereby impact the earnings and financial conditions of banks.
The PIMCO California Intermediate Municipal Bond, PIMCO California Municipal Bond, PIMCO California Municipal Intermediate Value, PIMCO California Municipal Opportunistic Value, PIMCO National Municipal Intermediate Value, PIMCO National Municipal Opportunistic Value, PIMCO California Short Duration Municipal Income, PIMCO Government Money Market, PIMCO High Yield Municipal Bond, PIMCO GNMA and Government Securities, PIMCO Long-Term U.S. Government, PIMCO Low Duration II, PIMCO Mortgage-Backed Securities, PIMCO Municipal Bond, PIMCO National Intermediate Municipal Bond, PIMCO New York Municipal Bond, PIMCO Short Duration Municipal Income and PIMCO Total Return II Funds may invest in the same types of bank obligations as the other Funds, but they must be U.S. dollar-denominated. Subject to the Trust’s limitation on concentration of no more than 25% of its total assets in the securities of issuers in a particular industry, as described in the “Investment Restrictions” section below, there is no additional limitation on the amount of a Fund’s assets which may be invested in obligations of foreign banks which meet the conditions set forth herein.
28

Obligations of foreign banks involve somewhat different investment risks than those affecting obligations of United States banks, including the possibilities that their liquidity could be impaired because of future political and economic developments, that their obligations may be less marketable than comparable obligations of United States banks, that a foreign jurisdiction might impose withholding taxes on interest income payable on those obligations, that foreign deposits may be seized or nationalized, that foreign governmental restrictions such as exchange controls may be adopted which might adversely affect the payment of principal and interest on those obligations and that the selection of those obligations may be more difficult because there may be less publicly available information concerning foreign banks or the accounting, auditing and financial reporting standards, practices and requirements applicable to foreign banks may differ from those applicable to United States banks. Foreign banks are not generally subject to examination by any United States Government agency or instrumentality.
Loans and Other Indebtedness, Loan Participations and Assignments
Each Fund (except for the PIMCO Government Money Market Fund) may purchase indebtedness and participations in commercial loans, as well as interests and/or servicing or similar rights in such loans. Such instruments may be secured or unsecured and may be newly-originated (and may be specifically designed for a Fund). Indebtedness is different from traditional debt securities in that debt securities are part of a large issue of securities to the public whereas indebtedness may not be a security and may represent a specific commercial loan to a borrower. Loan participations typically represent direct participation, together with other parties, in a loan to a corporate borrower, and generally are offered by banks or other financial institutions or lending syndicates. The Funds may participate in such syndications, or can buy part of a loan, becoming a part lender. When purchasing indebtedness and loan participations, a Fund assumes the credit risk associated with the corporate borrower and may assume the credit risk associated with an interposed bank or other financial intermediary. The indebtedness and loan participations that a Fund may acquire may not be rated by any nationally recognized rating service.
A loan is often administered by an agent bank acting as agent for all holders. The agent bank administers the terms of the loan, as specified in the loan agreement. In addition, the agent bank is normally responsible for the collection of principal and interest payments from the corporate borrower and the apportionment of these payments to the credit of all institutions which are parties to the loan agreement. Unless, under the terms of the loan or other indebtedness, a Fund has direct recourse against the corporate borrower, the Fund may have to rely on the agent bank or other financial intermediary to apply appropriate credit remedies against a corporate borrower.
A financial institution’s employment as agent bank might be terminated in the event that it fails to observe a requisite standard of care or becomes insolvent. A successor agent bank would generally be appointed to replace the terminated agent bank, and assets held by the agent bank under the loan agreement should remain available to holders of such indebtedness. However, if assets held by the agent bank for the benefit of a Fund were determined to be subject to the claims of the agent bank’s general creditors, the Fund might incur certain costs and delays in realizing payment on a loan or loan participation and could suffer a loss of principal and/or interest. In situations involving other interposed financial institutions (e.g., an insurance company or governmental agency) similar risks may arise.
Purchasers of loans and other forms of direct indebtedness depend primarily upon the creditworthiness of the corporate borrower for payment of principal and interest. If a Fund does not receive scheduled interest or principal payments on such indebtedness, the Fund’s share price and yield could be adversely affected. Loans that are fully secured offer a Fund more protection than an unsecured loan in the event of non-payment of scheduled interest or principal. However, there is no assurance that the liquidation of collateral from a secured loan would satisfy the corporate borrower’s obligation, or that the collateral can be liquidated. In the event of the bankruptcy of a borrower, a Fund could experience delays or limitations in its ability to realize the benefits of any collateral securing a loan.
The Funds may acquire loan participations with credit quality comparable to that of issuers of its securities investments. Indebtedness of companies whose creditworthiness is poor involves substantially greater risks, and may be highly speculative. Some companies may never pay off their indebtedness, or may pay only a small fraction of the amount owed. Consequently, when acquiring indebtedness of companies with poor credit, a Fund bears a substantial risk of losing the entire amount of the instrument acquired. The Funds may make purchases of indebtedness and loan participations to achieve income and/or capital appreciation.
Certain Funds that are diversified limit the amount of their total assets that they will invest in any one issuer and all Funds (except the PIMCO Preferred and Capital Securities Fund, which concentrates its investments in a group of
29

industries related to banks) limit the amount of their total assets that they will invest in issuers within the same industry (see “Investment Restrictions”). For purposes of these limits, a Fund generally will treat the corporate borrower as the “issuer” of indebtedness held by the Fund. In the case of loan participations where a bank or other lending institution serves as a financial intermediary between a Fund and the corporate borrower, if the participation does not shift to the Fund the direct debtor-creditor relationship with the corporate borrower, the Fund will treat both the lending bank or other lending institution and the corporate borrower as “issuers” for purposes of a Fund’s policy with respect to diversification under Fundamental Investment Restriction 2 below in accordance with written guidance from the staff of the SEC. Treating a financial intermediary as an issuer of indebtedness may restrict a Fund’s ability to invest in indebtedness related to a single financial intermediary even if the underlying borrowers represent many different companies.
Loans and other types of direct indebtedness (which a Fund may originate, acquire or otherwise gain exposure to) may not be readily marketable and may be subject to restrictions on resale. In some cases, negotiations involved in disposing of indebtedness may require weeks to complete. Consequently, some indebtedness may be difficult or impossible to dispose of readily at what PIMCO believes to be a fair price. In addition, valuation of illiquid indebtedness involves a greater degree of judgment in determining a Fund’s net asset value than if that value were based on available market quotations, and could result in significant variations in the Fund’s daily share price. At the same time, some loan interests are traded among certain financial institutions and accordingly may be deemed liquid. As the market for different types of indebtedness develops, the liquidity of these instruments is expected to improve. Please refer to “Illiquid Investments” below for further discussion of regulatory considerations and constraints relating to investment liquidity. Acquisitions of loan participations are considered to be debt obligations for purposes of the Trust’s investment restriction relating to the lending of funds or assets by a Fund.
Acquisition of loans through a purchase of a loan or a direct assignment of a financial institution’s interests with respect to the loan may involve additional risks to the Funds. The purchaser of an assignment typically succeeds to all the rights and obligations under the loan agreement with the same rights and obligations as the assigning lender. Assignments may, however, be arranged through private negotiations between potential assignees and potential assignors, and the rights and obligations acquired by the purchaser of an assignment may differ from, and be more limited than, those held by the assigning lender. For example, if a loan is foreclosed, a Fund could become owner, in whole or in part, of any collateral, which could include, among other assets, real estate or other real or personal property, and would bear the costs and liabilities associated with owning and holding or disposing of the collateral. In addition, it is conceivable that under emerging legal theories of lender liability, a Fund could be held liable as a co-lender. It is unclear whether loans and other forms of direct indebtedness offer securities law protections against fraud and misrepresentation. In the absence of definitive regulatory guidance, the Funds rely on PIMCO’s research in an attempt to avoid situations where fraud or misrepresentation could adversely affect the Funds.
Each Fund (except for the PIMCO Government Money Market Fund) may make, participate in or acquire debtor-in-possession financings (commonly known as “DIP financings”). DIP financings are arranged when an entity seeks the protections of the bankruptcy court under Chapter 11 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. These financings allow the entity to continue its business operations while reorganizing under Chapter 11. Such financings constitute senior liens on unencumbered security (i.e., security not subject to other creditors’ claims). There is a risk that the entity will not emerge from Chapter 11 and be forced to liquidate its assets under Chapter 7 of the U.S. Bankruptcy Code. In the event of liquidation, a Fund’s only recourse will be against the property securing the DIP financing.
Each Fund  (except for the PIMCO Government Money Market Fund) may act as the originator for direct loans to a borrower. Direct loans between a Fund and a borrower may not be administered by an underwriter or agent bank. The Funds may provide financing to commercial borrowers directly or through companies acquired (or created) and owned by or otherwise affiliated with one or more Funds. The terms of the direct loans are negotiated with borrowers in private transactions. A direct loan may be secured or unsecured.
In determining whether to make a direct loan, a Fund will rely primarily upon the creditworthiness of the borrower and/or any collateral for payment of interest and repayment of principal. In making a direct loan, a Fund is exposed to the risk that the borrower may default or become insolvent and, consequently, that a Fund will lose money on the loan. Furthermore, direct loans may subject a Fund to liquidity and interest rate risk and certain direct loans may be deemed illiquid. Direct loans are not publicly traded and may not have a secondary market. The lack of a secondary market for direct loans may have an adverse impact on the ability of a Fund to dispose of a direct loan and/or to value the direct loan.
30

When engaging in direct lending, a Fund’s performance may depend, in part, on the ability of a Fund to originate loans on advantageous terms. In originating and purchasing loans, a Fund will often compete with a broad spectrum of lenders. Increased competition for, or a diminishment in the available supply of, qualifying loans could result in lower yields on and/or less advantageous terms of such loans, which could reduce Fund performance.
As part of its lending activities, a Fund may originate loans to companies that are experiencing significant financial or business difficulties, including companies involved in bankruptcy or other reorganization and liquidation proceedings. Although the terms of such financing may result in significant financial returns to a Fund, they involve a substantial degree of risk. The level of analytical sophistication, both financial and legal, necessary for successful financing to companies experiencing significant business and financial difficulties is unusually high. Different types of assets may be used as collateral for a Fund’s loans and, accordingly, the valuation of and risks associated with such collateral will vary by loan. There is no assurance that a Fund will correctly evaluate the value of the assets collateralizing a Fund’s loans or the prospects for a successful reorganization or similar action. In any reorganization or liquidation proceeding relating to a company that a Fund funds, a Fund may lose all or part of the amounts advanced to the borrower or may be required to accept collateral with a value less than the amount of the loan advanced by a Fund or its affiliates to the borrower. Furthermore, in the event of a default by a borrower, a Fund may have difficulty disposing of the assets used as collateral for a loan.
Various state licensing requirements could apply to a Fund with respect to the origination, acquisition, holding, servicing, foreclosure and/or disposition of loans and similar assets. The licensing requirements could apply depending on the location of the borrower, the location of the collateral securing the loan, or the location where a Fund or PIMCO operates or has offices. In states in which it is licensed, a Fund or PIMCO will be required to comply with applicable laws and regulations, including consumer protection and anti-fraud laws, which could impose restrictions on a Fund’s or PIMCO’s ability to take certain actions to protect the value of its holdings in such assets and impose compliance costs. Failure to comply with such laws and regulations could lead to, among other penalties, a loss of a Fund’s or PIMCO’s license, which in turn could require a Fund to divest assets located in or secured by real property located in that state. These risks will also apply to issuers and entities in which a Fund invests that hold similar assets, as well as any origination company or servicer in which a Fund owns an interest.
Loan origination and servicing companies are routinely involved in legal proceedings concerning matters that arise in the ordinary course of their business. These legal proceedings range from actions involving a single plaintiff to class action lawsuits with potentially tens of thousands of class members. In addition, a number of participants in the loan origination and servicing industry (including control persons of industry participants) have been the subject of regulatory actions by state regulators, including state Attorneys General, and by the federal government. Governmental investigations, examinations or regulatory actions, or private lawsuits, including purported class action lawsuits, may adversely affect such companies’ financial results. To the extent a Fund seeks to engage in origination and/or servicing directly, or has a financial interest in, or is otherwise affiliated with, an origination or servicing company, a Fund will be subject to enhanced risks of litigation, regulatory actions and other proceedings. As a result, a Fund may be required to pay legal fees, settlement costs, damages, penalties or other charges, any or all of which could materially adversely affect a Fund and its holdings.
In addition to laws governing the activities of lenders and servicers, certain states may require, or may in the future require, purchasers or holders of certain loans, including residential mortgage loans, to be licensed or registered in order to purchase, hold or foreclose such loans, or, in certain states, to collect a rate of interest above a specified rate. To the extent required or determined to be necessary or advisable by a Fund that seeks to acquire such loans, the Fund will take appropriate steps intended to address any applicable state licensing requirements, which may include acquiring and holding such loans through structures designed to preempt state licensing laws, in order to pursue its objectives and strategies. To the extent a Fund (or its direct or indirect fully-owned subsidiary) obtains licenses or is required to comply with related regulatory requirements, the Fund could be subject to increased costs and regulatory oversight by governmental authorities, which may have an adverse effect on its results or operations.
Certain Funds initially intend to acquire residential mortgage loans through direct or indirect fully-owned subsidiaries. The subsidiaries directly holding a beneficial interest in loans will be formed as domestic common law or statutory trusts with a federally chartered bank serving as trustee. A Fund’s fully-owned subsidiary trust will hold the beneficial interests of loans and the federally chartered bank acting as trustee will hold legal title to the loans for the benefit of the subsidiary trust and/or the trust’s beneficial owners (i.e., a Fund or its direct or indirect fully-owned subsidiary). State licensing laws typically exempt federally chartered banks from their licensing requirements, and
31

federally chartered banks may also benefit from federal preemption of state laws, including any licensing requirements. The use of common law or statutory trusts with a federally chartered bank serving as trustee is intended to address any state licensing requirements that may be applicable to purchasers or holders of loans, including state licensing requirements related to foreclosure. A Fund may allocate up to 5% of its total assets to its direct or indirect fully-owned subsidiary trust for the purpose of acquiring and holding loans if the acquisition and holding of such loans is permitted by the Fund’s investment objectives and policies and any limits set by the Fund’s Board of Trustees. The Funds believe that such direct or indirect fully-owned subsidiary trusts will not be treated as associations or publicly traded partnerships taxable as corporations for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and that therefore, the subsidiary trusts will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax at the subsidiary level. Investments in residential mortgage loans through entities that are not so treated can potentially be limited by a Fund’s intention to qualify as a regulated investment company, and limit the Fund’s ability to qualify as such.
If a Fund or its direct or indirect fully-owned subsidiary trust is required to be licensed in any particular jurisdiction in order to acquire, hold, dispose or foreclose loans, obtaining the required license may not be viable (because, for example, it is not possible or practical) and the Fund or its subsidiary trust may be unable to restructure its holdings to address the licensing requirement. In that case, the Fund or its subsidiary trust may be forced to cease activities involving the affected loans, or may be forced to sell such loans. If a state regulator or court were to determine that the Fund or its subsidiary trust acquired, held or foreclosed a loan without a required state license, the Fund or its subsidiary trust could be subject to penalties or other sanctions, prohibited or restricted in its ability to enforce its rights under the loan, or subject to litigation risk or other losses or damages.
Privacy and Data Security Laws
The Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (“GLBA”) and other laws limit the disclosure of certain non-public personal information about a consumer to non-affiliated third parties and require financial institutions to disclose certain privacy policies and practices with respect to information sharing with both affiliates and non-affiliated third parties. Many states and a number of non-U.S. jurisdictions have enacted privacy and data security laws requiring safeguards on the privacy and security of consumers’ personally identifiable information. Other laws deal with obligations to safeguard and dispose of private information in a manner designed to avoid its dissemination. Privacy rules adopted by the U.S. Federal Trade Commission and SEC implement GLBA and other requirements and govern the disclosure of consumer financial information by certain financial institutions, ranging from banks to private investment funds. U.S. platforms following certain models generally are required to have privacy policies that conform to these GLBA and other requirements. In addition, such platforms typically have policies and procedures intended to maintain platform participants’ personal information securely and dispose of it properly.
The Fund generally does not intend to obtain or hold borrowers’ non-public personal information, and the Fund intends to implement procedures designed to prevent the disclosure of borrowers’ non-public personal information to the Fund. However, service providers to the Fund or its direct or indirect full-owned subsidiaries, including their custodians and the platforms acting as loan servicers for the Fund or its direct or indirect full-owned subsidiaries, may obtain, hold or process such information. While the Fund will adopt policies and procedures regarding the platforms’ and custodian’s protection and use of non-public personal information, the Fund cannot guarantee the security of that data and cannot guarantee that service providers have been and will continue to comply with GLBA, other data security and privacy laws and any other related regulatory requirements. Violations of GLBA and other laws could subject the Fund to litigation and/or fines, penalties or other regulatory action, which, individually or in the aggregate, could have an adverse effect on the Fund. The Fund may also face regulations related to privacy and data security in the other jurisdictions in which the Fund invests.
Senior Loans
To the extent the Funds invest in senior loans, including bank loans, the Funds may be subject to greater levels of credit risk, call risk, settlement risk and liquidity risk, than funds that do not invest in such investments. These instruments are considered predominantly speculative with respect to an issuer’s continuing ability to make principal and interest payments, and may be more volatile than other types of investments. An economic downturn or individual corporate developments could adversely affect the market for these instruments and reduce the Fund’s ability to sell these instruments at an advantageous time or price. An economic downturn would generally lead to a higher non-payment rate and, a senior loan may lose significant market value before a default occurs. In addition, the senior loans in which the Funds invest may not be listed on any exchange and a secondary market for such loans may be less
32

liquid than markets for other instruments. Consequently, transactions in senior loans may involve greater costs than transactions in more actively traded instruments. Restrictions on transfers in loan agreements, a lack of publicly-available information, irregular trading activity and wide bid/ask spreads among other factors, may, in certain circumstances, make senior loans difficult to value accurately or sell at an advantageous time or price than other types of securities or instruments. These factors may result in a Fund being unable to realize full value for the senior loans and/or may result in a Fund not receiving the proceeds from a sale of a senior loan for an extended period after such sale, each of which could result in losses to a Fund. Senior loans may have extended trade settlement periods, which may result in sale proceeds not being immediately available to a Fund. As a result, transactions in senior loans that settle on a delayed basis may limit a Fund’s ability to make additional investments or satisfy the Fund’s redemption obligations. A Fund may seek to satisfy any short-term liquidity needs resulting from an extended trade settlement process by, among other things, selling portfolio assets, holding additional cash or entering into temporary borrowing arrangements with banks and other potential funding sources. If an issuer of a senior loan prepays or redeems the loan prior to maturity, a Fund may have to reinvest the proceeds in instruments that pay lower interest rates. Senior loans may not be considered securities under the federal securities laws. In such circumstances, fewer legal protections may be available with respect to a Fund’s investment in senior loans. In particular, if a senior loan is not considered a security under the federal securities laws, certain legal protections normally available to securities investors under the federal securities laws, such as those against fraud and misrepresentation, may not be available. Senior loans in which a Fund invests may be collateralized, although the loans may not be fully collateralized and the collateral may be unavailable or insufficient to meet the obligations of the borrower. A Fund may have limited rights to exercise remedies against such collateral or a borrower and loan agreements may impose certain procedures that delay receipt of the proceeds of collateral or require a Fund to act collectively with other creditors to exercise its rights with respect to a senior loan. Because of the risks involved in investing in senior loans, an investment in a Fund that invests in such instruments should be considered speculative. Senior loans that are covenant-lite obligations contain fewer maintenance covenants than other types of loans, or no maintenance covenants, and may not include terms that allow the lender to monitor the performance of the borrower and declare a default if certain criteria are breached. Covenant-lite obligations may carry more risk than traditional loans as they allow borrowers to engage in activities that would otherwise be difficult or impossible under a covenant-heavy loan agreement. In the event of default, covenant-lite obligations may exhibit diminished recovery values as the lender may not have the opportunity to negotiate with the borrower prior to default. A Fund may have a greater risk of loss on investments in covenant-lite obligations as compared to investments in traditional loans.
  Secondary trades of senior loans may have extended settlement periods. Any settlement of a secondary market purchase of senior loans in the ordinary course, on a settlement date beyond the period expected by loan market participants (i.e., T+7 for par/near par loans and T+20 for distressed loans, in other words more than seven or twenty business days beyond the trade date, respectively) is subject to the “delayed compensation” rules prescribed by the Loan Syndications and Trading Association (“LSTA”) and addressed in the LSTA’s standard loan documentation for par/near par trades and for distressed trades. “Delayed compensation” is a pricing adjustment comprised of certain interest and fees, which is payable between the parties to a secondary loan trade. The LSTA introduced a requirements-based rules program in order to incentivize shorter settlement times for secondary transactions and discourage certain delay tactics that create friction in the loan syndications market by, among other things, mandating that the buyer of a senior loan satisfy certain “basic requirements” as prescribed by the LSTA no later than T+5 in order for the buyer to receive the benefit of interest and other fees accruing on the purchased loan from and after T+7 for par/near par loans (for distressed trades, T+20) until the settlement date, subject to certain specific exceptions. These “basic requirements” generally require a buyer to execute the required trade documentation and to be, and remain, financially able to settle the trade no later than T+7 for par/near par loans (and T+20 for distressed trades). In addition, buyers are required to fund the purchase price for a secondary trade upon receiving notice from the agent of the effectiveness of the trade in the agent’s loan register. A Fund, as a buyer of a senior loan in the secondary market, would need to meet these “basic requirements” or risk forfeiting all or some portion of the interest and other fees accruing on the loan from and after T+7 for par/near par loans (for distressed trades, T+20) until the settlement date. The “delayed compensation” mechanism does not mitigate the other risks of delayed settlement or other risks associated with investments in senior loans.
Investors should be aware that a Fund’s investment in a senior loan may result in a Fund or PIMCO receiving information about the issuer that may be deemed material, non-public information. Under such circumstances, the Funds’ investment opportunities may be limited, as trading in securities of such issuer may be restricted. Additionally, PIMCO may seek to avoid receiving material, non-public information about issuers of senior loans. As a result, PIMCO may forgo certain investment opportunities or be disadvantaged as compared to other investors that do not
33

restrict information that they receive from senior loan issuers. Please see “Portfolio Managers—Conflicts of Interest—Investment Opportunities” below for more information.
Trade Claims
The Funds may purchase trade claims and similar obligations or claims against companies in bankruptcy proceedings. Trade claims are non-securitized rights of payment arising from obligations that typically arise when vendors and suppliers extend credit to a company by offering payment terms for products and services. If the company files for bankruptcy, payments on these trade claims stop and the claims are subject to compromise along with the other debts of the company. Trade claims may be purchased directly from the creditor or through brokers. There is no guarantee that a debtor will ever be able to satisfy its trade claim obligations. Trade claims are subject to the risks associated with low-quality obligations.
Corporate Debt Securities
A Fund’s investments in U.S. dollar or foreign currency-denominated corporate debt securities of domestic or foreign issuers are limited to corporate debt securities (corporate bonds, debentures, notes and other similar corporate debt instruments, including convertible securities) which meet the minimum ratings criteria set forth for a Fund, or, if unrated, are in PIMCO’s opinion comparable in quality to corporate debt securities in which a Fund may invest.
The rate of interest on a corporate debt security may be fixed, floating or variable, and may vary inversely with respect to a reference rate. The rate of return or return of principal on some debt obligations may be linked or indexed to the level of exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and a foreign currency or currencies. Debt securities may be acquired with warrants attached.
Securities rated Baa and BBB are the lowest which are considered “investment grade” obligations. Moody’s describes securities rated Baa as judged to be medium-grade and subject to moderate credit risk and as such may possess certain speculative characteristics. S&P describes securities rated BBB as exhibiting adequate protection parameters. However, adverse economic conditions or changing circumstances are more likely to weaken the obligor’s capacity to meet its financial commitments on the obligation. Fitch describes securities rated BBB as having good credit quality with current low expectations of default. The capacity for payment of financial commitments is considered adequate, but adverse business or economic conditions are more likely to impair this capacity. For a discussion of securities rated below investment grade, see “High Yield Securities (“Junk Bonds”) and Securities of Distressed Companies” below. The Funds may invest in debt securities that are rated in any category established by one or more independent rating organizations or that are unrated.
High Yield Securities (“Junk Bonds”) and Securities of Distressed Companies
Investments in securities rated below investment grade that are eligible for purchase by certain Funds are described as “speculative” by Moody’s, S&P and Fitch. Investment in lower rated corporate debt securities (“high yield securities” or “junk bonds”) and securities of distressed companies generally provides greater income and increased opportunity for capital appreciation than investments in higher quality securities, but they also typically entail greater price volatility and principal and income risk. Securities of distressed companies include both debt and equity securities. High yield securities and debt securities of distressed companies are regarded as predominantly speculative with respect to the issuer’s continuing ability to meet principal and interest payments. Issuers of high yield and distressed company securities may be involved in restructurings or bankruptcy proceedings that may not be successful. Analysis of the creditworthiness of issuers of debt securities that are high yield or debt securities of distressed companies may be more complex than for issuers of higher quality debt securities.
High yield securities and debt securities of distressed companies may be more susceptible to real or perceived adverse economic and competitive industry conditions than investment grade securities. The prices of these securities have been found to be less sensitive to interest-rate changes than higher-rated investments, but more sensitive to adverse economic downturns or individual corporate developments. A projection of an economic downturn, for example, could cause a decline in prices of high yield securities and debt securities of distressed companies because the advent of a recession could lessen the ability of a highly leveraged company to make principal and interest payments on its debt securities, and a high yield security may lose significant market value before a default occurs. If an issuer of securities defaults, in addition to risking payment of all or a portion of interest and principal, the Funds by
34

investing in such securities, may incur additional expenses to seek recovery of their respective investments. In the case of securities structured as zero-coupon or pay-in-kind securities, their market prices are affected to a greater extent by interest rate changes, and therefore tend to be more volatile than securities which pay interest periodically and in cash. PIMCO seeks to reduce these risks through diversification, credit analysis and attention to current developments and trends in both the economy and financial markets.
High yield and distressed company securities may not be listed on any exchange and a secondary market for such securities may be comparatively illiquid relative to markets for other more liquid fixed income securities. Consequently, transactions in high yield and distressed company securities may involve greater costs than transactions in more actively traded securities, which could adversely affect the price at which the Funds could sell a high yield or distressed company security, and could adversely affect the daily net asset value of the shares. A lack of publicly-available information, irregular trading activity and wide bid/ask spreads among other factors, may, in certain circumstances, make high yield debt more difficult to sell at an advantageous time or price than other types of securities or instruments. These factors may result in a Fund being unable to realize full value for these securities and/or may result in a Fund not receiving the proceeds from a sale of a high yield or distressed company security for an extended period after such sale, each of which could result in losses to a Fund. In addition, adverse publicity and investor perceptions, whether or not based on fundamental analysis, may decrease the values and liquidity of high yield and distressed company securities, especially in a thinly-traded market. When secondary markets for high yield and distressed company securities are less liquid than the market for other types of securities, it may be more difficult to value the securities because such valuation may require more research, and elements of judgment may play a greater role in the valuation because there is less reliable, objective data available. PIMCO seeks to minimize the risks of investing in all securities through diversification, in-depth analysis and attention to current market developments.
The use of credit ratings as the sole method of evaluating high yield securities and debt securities of distressed companies can involve certain risks. For example, credit ratings evaluate the safety of principal and interest payments of a debt security, not the market value risk of a security. Also, credit rating agencies may fail to change credit ratings in a timely fashion to reflect events since the security was last rated. PIMCO does not rely solely on credit ratings when selecting debt securities for Funds, and develops its own independent analysis of issuer credit quality. If a credit rating agency changes the rating of a debt security held by a Fund, a Fund may retain the security if PIMCO deems it in the best interest of shareholders.
Creditor Liability and Participation on Creditors’ Committees
Generally, when a Fund holds bonds or other similar fixed income securities of an issuer, the Fund becomes a creditor of the issuer. If a Fund is a creditor of an issuer it may be subject to challenges related to the securities that it holds, either in connection with the bankruptcy of the issuer or in connection with another action brought by other creditors of the issuer, shareholders of the issuer or the issuer itself. Although under no obligation to do so, PIMCO, as investment adviser to the Fund, may from time to time have an opportunity to consider, on behalf of the Fund and other similarly situated clients, negotiating or otherwise participating in the restructuring of the Fund’s portfolio investment or the issuer of such investment. PIMCO, in its judgment and discretion and based on the considerations deemed by PIMCO to be relevant, may believe that it is in the best interests of the Fund to negotiate or otherwise participate in such restructuring. Accordingly, and subject to applicable procedures approved by the Board of Trustees, the Fund may from time to time participate on committees formed by creditors to negotiate with the management of financially troubled issuers of securities held by the Fund. Such participation may subject the Fund to expenses such as legal fees and may make the Fund an “insider” of the issuer for purposes of the federal securities laws, and therefore may restrict such Fund’s ability to trade in or acquire additional positions in a particular security when it might otherwise desire to do so. Participation by the Fund on such committees also may expose the Fund to potential liabilities under the federal bankruptcy laws or other laws governing the rights of creditors and debtors. Similarly, subject to the above-mentioned procedures, PIMCO may actively participate in bankruptcy court and related proceedings on behalf of the Fund in order to protect the Fund’s interests in connection with a restructuring transaction, and PIMCO may cause the Fund to enter into an agreement reasonably indemnifying third parties or advancing from the Fund’s assets any legal fees or other costs to third parties, including parties involved in or assisting the Fund with a restructuring transaction, such as trustees, servicers and other third parties. Further, PIMCO has the authority, subject to the above-mentioned procedures, to represent the Trust, or any Fund(s) thereof, on creditors’ committees (or similar committees) or otherwise in connection with the restructuring of an issuer’s debt and generally with respect to challenges related to the securities held by the Funds relating to the bankruptcy of an issuer or in connection with another action brought by other creditors of the issuer, shareholders of the issuer or the issuer itself.
35

Variable and Floating Rate Securities
Variable and floating rate securities provide for a periodic adjustment in the interest rate paid on the obligations. The terms of such obligations must provide that interest rates are adjusted periodically based upon an interest rate adjustment index as provided in the respective obligations. The adjustment intervals may be regular, and range from daily up to annually, or may be event based, such as based on a change in the prime rate. The PIMCO Government Money Market Fund may invest in a variable rate security having a stated maturity in excess of 397 calendar days if the interest rate will be adjusted and such Fund may demand payment of principal from the issuer within that period.
Certain Funds may invest in floating rate debt instruments (“floaters”) and (except for the PIMCO Government Money Market Fund) engage in credit spread trades. The interest rate on a floater is a variable rate which is tied to another interest rate, such as a money-market index or Treasury bill rate. The interest rate on a floater resets periodically, typically every six months. While, because of the interest rate reset feature, floaters provide a Fund with a certain degree of protection against rises in interest rates, a Fund will participate in any declines in interest rates as well. A credit spread trade is an investment position relating to a difference in the prices or interest rates of two securities or currencies, where the value of the investment position is determined by movements in the difference between the prices or interest rates, as the case may be, of the respective securities or currencies.
Each of the Funds (except for the PIMCO Government Money Market Fund) also may invest in inverse floating rate debt instruments (“inverse floaters”). The interest rate on an inverse floater resets in the opposite direction from the market rate of interest to which the inverse floater is indexed. An inverse floating rate security may exhibit greater price volatility than a fixed rate obligation of similar credit quality. The PIMCO Mortgage Opportunities and Bond Fund may invest up to 10% of its total assets in any combination of mortgage-related or other asset-backed IO, PO, or inverse floater securities. Each other Fund (except for the PIMCO Government Money Market Fund) may invest up to 5% of its total assets in any combination of mortgage-related and or other asset-backed IO, PO, or inverse floater securities. See “Mortgage-Related and Other Asset-Backed Securities” for a discussion of IOs and POs. To the extent permitted by each Fund’s investment objectives and general investment policies, a Fund (except for the PIMCO Government Money Market and PIMCO Total Return IV Funds) may invest in residual interest bonds without limitation. The term “residual interest bonds” generally includes tender option bond trust residual interest certificates and instruments designed to receive residual interest payments or other excess cash flows from collateral pools once other interest holders and expenses have been paid.
Inflation-Indexed Bonds
Inflation-indexed bonds are fixed income securities whose principal value is periodically adjusted according to the rate of inflation. Two structures are common. The U.S. Treasury and some other issuers use a structure that accrues inflation into the principal value of the bond. Most other issuers pay out the Consumer Price Index (“CPI”) accruals as part of a semiannual coupon.
Inflation-indexed securities issued by the U.S. Treasury have maturities of five, ten or thirty years, although it is possible that securities with other maturities will be issued in the future. The U.S. Treasury securities pay interest on a semi-annual basis, equal to a fixed percentage of the inflation-adjusted principal amount. For example, if a Fund purchased an inflation-indexed bond with a par value of $1,000 and a 3% real rate of return coupon (payable 1.5% semi-annually), and inflation over the first six months was 1%, the mid-year par value of the bond would be $1,010 and the first semi-annual interest payment would be $15.15 ($1,010 times 1.5%). If inflation during the second half of the year resulted in the whole years’ inflation equaling 3%, the end-of-year par value of the bond would be $1,030 and the second semi-annual interest payment would be $15.45 ($1,030 times 1.5%).
If the periodic adjustment rate measuring inflation falls, the principal value of inflation-indexed bonds will be adjusted downward, and consequently the interest payable on these securities (calculated with respect to a smaller principal amount) will be reduced. Repayment of the original bond principal upon maturity (as adjusted for inflation) is guaranteed in the case of U.S. Treasury inflation-indexed bonds, even during a period of deflation. However, the current market value of the bonds is not guaranteed, and will fluctuate. The Funds also may invest in other inflation related bonds which may or may not provide a similar guarantee. If a guarantee of principal is not provided, the adjusted principal value of the bond repaid at maturity may be less than the original principal.
36

The value of inflation-indexed bonds is expected to change in response to changes in real interest rates. Real interest rates in turn are tied to the relationship between nominal interest rates and the rate of inflation. Therefore, if inflation were to rise at a faster rate than nominal interest rates, real interest rates might decline, leading to an increase in value of inflation-indexed bonds. In contrast, if nominal interest rates increased at a faster rate than inflation, real interest rates might rise, leading to a decrease in value of inflation-indexed bonds.
While these securities are expected to be protected from long-term inflationary trends, short-term increases in inflation may lead to a decline in value. If interest rates rise due to reasons other than inflation (for example, due to changes in currency exchange rates), investors in these securities may not be protected to the extent that the increase is not reflected in the bond’s inflation measure.
The periodic adjustment of U.S. inflation-indexed bonds is tied to the Consumer Price Index for Urban Consumers (“CPI-U”), which is calculated monthly by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. The CPI-U is a measurement of changes in the cost of living, made up of components such as housing, food, transportation and energy. Inflation-indexed bonds issued by a foreign government are generally adjusted to reflect a comparable inflation index, calculated by that government. There can be no assurance that the CPI-U or any foreign inflation index will accurately measure the real rate of inflation in the prices of goods and services. Moreover, there can be no assurance that the rate of inflation in a foreign country will be correlated to the rate of inflation in the United States.
Any increase in the principal amount of an inflation-indexed bond will be considered taxable ordinary income, even though investors do not receive their principal until maturity.
Event-Linked Exposure
Certain Funds may obtain event-linked exposure by investing in “event-linked bonds” or “event-linked swaps,” or by implementing “event-linked strategies.” Event-linked exposure results in gains that typically are contingent on the non-occurrence of a specific “trigger” event, such as a hurricane, earthquake, or other physical or weather-related phenomena. Some event-linked bonds are commonly referred to as “catastrophe bonds.” They may be issued by government agencies, insurance companies, reinsurers, special purpose corporations or other on-shore or off-shore entities (such special purpose entities are created to accomplish a narrow and well-defined objective, such as the issuance of a note in connection with a reinsurance transaction). If a trigger event causes losses exceeding a specific amount in the geographic region and time period specified in a bond, a Fund investing in the bond may lose a portion or all of its principal invested in the bond. If no trigger event occurs, a Fund will recover its principal plus interest. For some event-linked bonds, the trigger event or losses may be based on company-wide losses, index-portfolio losses, industry indices, or readings of scientific instruments rather than specified actual losses. Often the event-linked bonds provide for extensions of maturity that are mandatory, or optional at the discretion of the issuer, in order to process and audit loss claims in those cases where a trigger event has, or possibly has, occurred. An extension of maturity may increase volatility. In addition to the specified trigger events, event-linked bonds also may expose a Fund to certain unanticipated risks including but not limited to issuer risk, credit risk, counterparty risk, adverse regulatory or jurisdictional interpretations, and adverse tax consequences.
Event-linked bonds are a relatively new type of financial instrument. As such, there is no significant trading history of these securities, and there can be no assurance that a liquid market in these instruments will develop. Please refer to “Illiquid Investments” below for further discussion of regulatory considerations and constraints relating to investment liquidity. Lack of a liquid market may impose the risk of higher transaction costs and the possibility that a Fund may be forced to liquidate positions when it would not be advantageous to do so. Event-linked bonds are typically rated, and a Fund will only invest in catastrophe bonds that meet the credit quality requirements for a Fund.
Convertible Securities
Each Fund (except the PIMCO Government Money Market Fund) may invest in convertible securities, which may offer higher income than the common stocks into which they are convertible.
A convertible security is a bond, debenture, note, preferred security, or other security that entitles the holder to acquire common stock or other equity securities of the same or a different issuer. A convertible security generally entitles the holder to receive interest paid or accrued until the convertible security matures or is redeemed, converted or exchanged. Before conversion, convertible securities have characteristics similar to non-convertible debt or
37

preferred securities, as applicable. Convertible securities rank senior to common stock in a corporation’s capital structure and, therefore, generally entail less risk than the corporation’s common stock, although the extent to which such risk is reduced depends in large measure upon the degree to which the convertible security sells above its value as a fixed income security. Convertible securities are subordinate in rank to any senior debt obligations of the issuer, and, therefore, an issuer’s convertible securities entail more risk than its debt obligations. Convertible securities generally offer lower interest or dividend yields than non-convertible debt securities of similar credit quality because of the potential for capital appreciation. In addition, convertible securities are often lower-rated securities.
Because of the conversion feature, the price of the convertible security will normally fluctuate in some proportion to changes in the price of the underlying asset, and as such is subject to risks relating to the activities of the issuer and/or general market and economic conditions. The income component of a convertible security may tend to cushion the security against declines in the price of the underlying asset. However, the income component of convertible securities causes fluctuations based upon changes in interest rates and the credit quality of the issuer.
If the convertible security’s “conversion value,” which is the market value of the underlying common stock that would be obtained upon the conversion of the convertible security, is substantially below the “investment value,” which is the value of a convertible security viewed without regard to its conversion feature (i.e., strictly on the basis of its yield), the price of the convertible security is governed principally by its investment value. If the conversion value of a convertible security increases to a point that approximates or exceeds its investment value, the value of the security will be principally influenced by its conversion value. A convertible security will sell at a premium over its conversion value to the extent investors place value on the right to acquire the underlying common stock while holding an income-producing security.
A convertible security may be subject to redemption at the option of the issuer at a predetermined price. If a convertible security held by a Fund is called for redemption, the Fund would be required to permit the issuer to redeem the security and convert it to underlying common stock, or would sell the convertible security to a third party, which may have an adverse effect on the Fund’s ability to achieve its investment objective.
A third party or PIMCO also may create a “synthetic” convertible security by combining separate securities that possess the two principal characteristics of a traditional convertible security, i.e., an income-producing security (“income-producing component”) and the right to acquire an equity security (“convertible component”). The income-producing component is achieved by investing in non-convertible, income-producing securities such as bonds, preferred securities and money market instruments, which may be represented by derivative instruments. The convertible component is achieved by investing in securities or instruments such as warrants or options to buy common stock at a certain exercise price, or options on a stock index. Unlike a traditional convertible security, which is a single security having a single market value, a synthetic convertible comprises two or more separate securities, each with its own market value. Therefore, the “market value” of a synthetic convertible security is the sum of the values of its income-producing component and its convertible component. For this reason, the values of a synthetic convertible security and a traditional convertible security may respond differently to market fluctuations.
More flexibility is possible in the assembly of a synthetic convertible security than in the purchase of a convertible security. Although synthetic convertible securities may be selected where the two components are issued by a single issuer, thus making the synthetic convertible security similar to the traditional convertible security, the character of a synthetic convertible security allows the combination of components representing distinct issuers, when PIMCO believes that such a combination may better achieve a Fund’s investment objective. A synthetic convertible security also is a more flexible investment in that its two components may be purchased separately. For example, a Fund may purchase a warrant for inclusion in a synthetic convertible security but temporarily hold short-term investments while postponing the purchase of a corresponding bond pending development of more favorable market conditions.
A holder of a synthetic convertible security faces the risk of a decline in the price of the security or the level of the index involved in the convertible component, causing a decline in the value of the security or instrument, such as a call option or warrant, purchased to create the synthetic convertible security. Should the price of the stock fall below the exercise price and remain there throughout the exercise period, the entire amount paid for the call option or warrant would be lost. Because a synthetic convertible security includes the income-producing component as well, the holder of a synthetic convertible security also faces the risk that interest rates will rise, causing a decline in the value of the income-producing instrument.
38

A Fund also may purchase synthetic convertible securities created by other parties, including convertible structured notes. Convertible structured notes are income-producing debentures linked to equity, and are typically issued by investment banks. Convertible structured notes have the attributes of a convertible security; however, the investment bank that issues the convertible note, rather than the issuer of the underlying common stock into which the note is convertible, assumes credit risk associated with the underlying investment, and a Fund in turn assumes credit risk associated with the convertible note.
Contingent Convertible Instruments.     Contingent convertible securities (“CoCos”) are a form of hybrid debt security that are intended to either convert into equity or have their principal written down upon the occurrence of certain “triggers.” The triggers are generally linked to regulatory capital thresholds or regulatory actions calling into question the issuing banking institution’s continued viability as a going-concern. CoCos’ unique equity conversion or principal write-down features are tailored to the issuing banking institution and its regulatory requirements. Some additional risks associated with CoCos include, but are not limited to:
Loss absorption risk.   CoCos have fully discretionary coupons. This means coupons can potentially be cancelled at the banking institution’s discretion or at the request of the relevant regulatory authority in order to help the bank absorb losses.
Subordinated instruments.   CoCos will, in the majority of circumstances, be issued in the form of subordinated debt instruments in order to provide the appropriate regulatory capital treatment prior to a conversion. Accordingly, in the event of liquidation, dissolution or winding-up of an issuer prior to a conversion having occurred, the rights and claims of the holders of the CoCos, such as the Funds, against the issuer in respect of or arising under the terms of the CoCos shall generally rank junior to the claims of all holders of unsubordinated obligations of the issuer. In addition, if the CoCos are converted into the issuer’s underlying equity securities following a conversion event ( i.e. , a “trigger”), each holder will be subordinated due to their conversion from being the holder of a debt instrument to being the holder of an equity instrument.
Market value will fluctuate based on unpredictable factors.   The value of CoCos is unpredictable and will be influenced by many factors including, without limitation: (i) the creditworthiness of the issuer and/or fluctuations in such issuer’s applicable capital ratios; (ii) supply and demand for the CoCos; (iii) general market conditions and available liquidity; and (iv) economic, financial and political events that affect the issuer, its particular market or the financial markets in general.
Equity Securities
While the securities in which certain Funds primarily intend to invest are expected to consist of fixed income securities, such Funds (except for the PIMCO Government Money Market Fund) may invest in equity securities. While the PIMCO RAE PLUS EMG, PIMCO RAE Fundamental Advantage PLUS, PIMCO RAE PLUS, PIMCO RAE PLUS International, PIMCO StocksPLUS® International (U.S. Dollar-Hedged), PIMCO StocksPLUS® International (Unhedged), PIMCO StocksPLUS® Small, PIMCO RAE PLUS Small, PIMCO StocksPLUS®, PIMCO StocksPLUS® Long Duration, PIMCO StocksPLUS® Short, PIMCO StocksPLUS® Absolute Return and PIMCO RAE Worldwide Long/Short PLUS Funds (together, for purposes of this section only, “Equity-Related Funds”) will normally utilize derivatives to gain exposure to equity securities, each of the Equity-Related Funds may also invest directly in equity securities. Equity securities, such as common stock, represent an ownership interest, or the right to acquire an ownership interest, in an issuer. The PIMCO Total Return Fund, PIMCO Total Return Fund IV, PIMCO California Municipal Intermediate Value Fund, PIMCO California Municipal Opportunistic Value Fund, PIMCO National Municipal Intermediate Value Fund and PIMCO National Municipal Opportunistic Value Fund may not purchase common stock, but this limitation does not prevent the Funds from holding common stock obtained through the conversion of convertible securities or common stock that is received as part of a corporate reorganization or debt restructuring (for example, as may occur during bankruptcies or distressed situations).
Common stock generally takes the form of shares in a corporation. The value of a company’s stock may fall as a result of factors directly relating to that company, such as decisions made by its management or lower demand for the company’s products or services. A stock’s value also may fall because of factors affecting not just the company, but also companies in the same industry or in a number of different industries, such as increases in production costs. The value of a company’s stock also may be affected by changes in financial markets that are relatively unrelated to the company or its industry, such as changes in interest rates or currency exchange rates. In addition, a company’s stock generally pays dividends only after the company invests in its own business and makes required payments to holders of its bonds, other debt and preferred securities. For this reason, the value of a company’s stock will usually react more
39

strongly than its bonds, other debt and preferred securities to actual or perceived changes in the company’s financial condition or prospects. Stocks of smaller companies may be more vulnerable to adverse developments than those of larger companies. Stocks of companies that the portfolio managers believe are fast-growing may trade at a higher multiple of current earnings than other stocks. The value of such stocks may be more sensitive to changes in current or expected earnings than the values of other stocks. The Funds generally consider a small-cap company to be a company with a market capitalization of up to $1.5 billion, a mid-cap company to be a company with a market capitalization of between $1.5 billion and $10 billion, and a large-cap company to be a company with a market capitalization of greater than $10 billion.
With respect to the Equity-Related Funds, though the Equity-Related Funds do not normally invest directly in equity securities, when index derivatives appear to be overvalued relative to the index, each such Equity-Related Fund may invest all of its assets in a “basket” of index stocks. Individual stocks are selected based on an analysis of the historical correlation between the return of every index stock comprising each Fund’s respective index and the return of the index itself. In such case, PIMCO may employ fundamental analysis of factors such as earnings growth, price to earnings ratio, dividend growth and cash flows to choose among stocks that satisfy the correlation tests. Stocks chosen for the applicable Equity-Related Fund are not limited to those with any particular weighting in the applicable benchmark.
Different types of equity securities provide different voting and dividend rights and priority in the event of the bankruptcy and/or insolvency of the issuer. In addition to common stock, equity securities may include preferred securities, convertible securities and warrants, which are discussed elsewhere in the Statement of Additional Information. Equity securities other than common stock are subject to many of the same risks as common stock, although possibly to different degrees. The risks of equity securities are generally magnified in the case of equity investments in distressed companies.
Preferred Securities
Each Fund (except for the PIMCO Government Money Market Fund, PIMCO California Municipal Intermediate Value Fund, PIMCO California Municipal Opportunistic Value Fund, PIMCO National Municipal Intermediate Value Fund and PIMCO National Municipal Opportunistic Value Fund) may invest in preferred securities. Preferred securities represent an equity interest in a company that generally entitles the holder to receive, in preference to the holders of other stocks such as common stocks, dividends and a fixed share of the proceeds resulting from a liquidation of the company. Some preferred securities also entitle their holders to receive additional liquidation proceeds on the same basis as holders of a company’s common stock, and thus also represent an ownership interest in that company.
Preferred securities may pay fixed or adjustable rates of return. Preferred securities are subject to issuer-specific and market risks applicable generally to equity securities. In addition, a company’s preferred securities generally pay dividends only after the company makes required payments to holders of its bonds and other debt. For this reason, the value of preferred securities will usually react more strongly than bonds and other debt to actual or perceived changes in the company’s financial condition or prospects. Preferred securities of smaller companies may be more vulnerable to adverse developments than preferred securities of larger companies.
Depositary Receipts
Certain Funds may invest in American Depositary Receipts (“ADRs”), European Depositary Receipts (“EDRs”), Global Depositary Receipts (“GDRs”) and similar securities that represent interests in a company’s securities that have been deposited with a bank or trust and that trade on an exchange or over-the-counter (“OTC”). For example, ADRs represent interests in a non-U.S. company but trade on a U.S. exchange or OTC and are denominated in U.S. dollars. These securities represent the right to receive securities of the foreign issuer deposited with the bank or trust. ADRs, EDRs and GDRs can be sponsored by the issuing bank or trust company or the issuer of the underlying securities. Although the issuing bank or trust company may impose charges for the collection of dividends and the conversion of such securities into the underlying securities, there are generally no fees imposed on the purchase or sale of these securities, other than transaction fees ordinarily involved with trading stock. Such securities may be relatively less liquid or may trade at a lower price than the underlying securities of the issuer. Additionally, receipt of corporate information about the underlying issuer and proxy disclosure may be untimely.
40

Warrants to Purchase Securities
The Funds (except the PIMCO Government Money Market Fund) may invest in or acquire warrants to purchase equity or fixed income securities. Warrants are instruments that give the holder the right, but not the obligation, to buy a security directly from an issuer at a specific price for a specific period of time. Changes in the value of a warrant do not necessarily correspond to changes in the value of its underlying security. The price of a warrant may be more volatile than the price of its underlying security, and a warrant may offer greater potential for capital appreciation as well as capital loss. Warrants do not entitle a holder to dividends or voting rights with respect to the underlying security, do not represent any rights in the assets of the issuing company and are subject to the risk that the issuer-counterparty may fail to honor its obligations. A warrant ceases to have value if it is not exercised prior to its expiration date. These factors can make warrants more speculative than other types of investments. Bonds with warrants attached to purchase equity securities have many characteristics of convertible bonds and their prices may, to some degree, reflect the performance of the underlying stock. Bonds also may be issued with warrants attached to purchase additional fixed income securities at the same coupon rate. A decline in interest rates would permit a Fund to buy additional bonds at the favorable rate or to sell the warrants at a profit. If interest rates rise, the warrants would generally expire with no value.
A Fund (except the PIMCO Government Money Market Fund) will not invest more than 5% of its net assets in warrants to purchase securities. The PIMCO Government Money Market Fund will not invest in warrants. Warrants acquired in units or attached to securities will be deemed without value for purposes of this restriction.
The Funds (except the PIMCO Government Money Market Fund) may from time to time use non-standard warrants, including low exercise price warrants or low exercise price options (“LEPOs”), to gain exposure to issuers in certain countries. LEPOs are different from standard warrants in that they do not give their holders the right to receive a security of the issuer upon exercise. Rather, LEPOs pay the holder the difference in price of the underlying security between the date the LEPO was purchased and the date it is sold. Additionally, LEPOs entail the same risks as other OTC derivatives, including the risks that the counterparty or issuer of the LEPO may not be able to fulfill its obligations, that the holder and counterparty or issuer may disagree as to the meaning or application of contractual terms, or that the instrument may not perform as expected. Furthermore, while LEPOs may be listed on an exchange, there is no guarantee that a liquid market will exist or that the counterparty or issuer of a LEPO will be willing to repurchase such instrument when a Fund wishes to sell it.
Foreign Securities
The PIMCO Government Money Market Fund may not invest in securities of foreign issuers. Each other Fund (except for the following Funds: PIMCO California Intermediate Municipal Bond, PIMCO California Municipal Bond, PIMCO California Municipal Intermediate Value, PIMCO California Municipal Opportunistic Value, PIMCO National Municipal Intermediate Value, PIMCO National Municipal Opportunistic Value, PIMCO California Short Duration Municipal Income, PIMCO High Yield Municipal Bond, PIMCO Long-Term U.S. Government, PIMCO Low Duration II, PIMCO Municipal Bond, PIMCO National Intermediate Municipal Bond, PIMCO New York Municipal Bond, PIMCO Short Duration Municipal Income and PIMCO Total Return II Funds) may invest in corporate debt securities of foreign issuers, preferred or preference stock of foreign issuers, certain foreign bank obligations (see “Bank Obligations”) and U.S. dollar- or foreign currency-denominated obligations of foreign governments or their subdivisions, agencies and instrumentalities, international agencies and supranational entities. The PIMCO GNMA and Government Securities and PIMCO Mortgage-Backed Securities Funds may invest in securities of foreign issuers only if they are U.S. dollar-denominated.
PIMCO generally considers an instrument to be economically tied to a non-U.S. country if the issuer is a foreign government (or any political subdivision, agency, authority or instrumentality of such government), or if the issuer is organized under the laws of a non-U.S. country. In the case of money market instruments other than commercial paper and certificates of deposit, such instruments will be considered economically tied to a non-U.S. country if the issuer of such money market instrument is organized under the laws of a non-U.S. country. In the case of commercial paper and certificates of deposit, such instruments will be considered economically tied to a non-U.S. country if the “country of exposure” of such instrument is a non-U.S. country, as determined by the criteria set forth below. With respect to derivative instruments, PIMCO generally considers such instruments to be economically tied to non-U.S. countries if the underlying assets are foreign currencies (or baskets or indexes of such currencies), or instruments or securities that are issued by foreign governments or issuers organized under the laws of a non-U.S. country (or if the underlying
41

assets are money market instruments other than commercial paper and certificates of deposit, the issuer of such money market instrument is organized under the laws of a non-U.S. country or, in the case of underlying assets that are commercial paper or certificates of deposit, if the “country of exposure” of such money market instrument is a non-U.S. country). A security’s “country of exposure” is determined by PIMCO using certain factors provided by a third-party analytical service provider. The factors are applied in order such that the first factor to result in the assignment of a country determines the “country of exposure.” Both the factors and the order in which they are applied may change in the discretion of PIMCO. The current factors, listed in the order in which they are applied, are: (i) if an asset-backed or other collateralized security, the country in which the collateral backing the security is located; (ii) the “country of risk” of the issuer; (iii) if the security is guaranteed by the government of a country (or any political subdivision, agency, authority or instrumentality of such government), the country of the government or instrumentality providing the guarantee; (iv) the “country of risk” of the issuer’s ultimate parent; or (v) the country where the issuer is organized or incorporated under the laws thereof. “Country of risk” is a separate four-part test determined by the following factors, listed in order of importance: (i) management location; (ii) country of primary listing; (iii) sales or revenue attributable to the country; and (iv) reporting currency of the issuer. With respect to the PIMCO RAE PLUS EMG, PIMCO RAE Fundamental Advantage PLUS, PIMCO RAE PLUS, PIMCO RAE PLUS International, PIMCO StocksPLUS® International (U.S. Dollar-Hedged), PIMCO StocksPLUS® International (Unhedged), PIMCO StocksPLUS® Small, PIMCO RAE PLUS Small, PIMCO StocksPLUS®, PIMCO StocksPLUS® Long Duration, PIMCO StocksPLUS® Short, PIMCO StocksPLUS® Absolute Return and PIMCO RAE Worldwide Long/Short PLUS Funds’ (together, for purposes of this section only, “Equity-Related Funds”) derivative instruments, PIMCO generally considers such instruments to be economically tied to non-U.S. countries if the underlying assets of the derivative instrument, or a substantial portion of the components of the index to which the derivative instrument is exposed, are: (i) foreign currencies (or baskets or indexes of such currencies); (ii) instruments or securities that are issued by foreign governments; or (iii) instruments or securities that are issued by issuers organized under the laws of a non-U.S. country (or if the underlying assets are money market instruments other than commercial paper and certificates of deposit, the issuer of such money market instrument is organized under the laws of a non-U.S. country or, in the case of underlying assets that are commercial paper or certificates of deposit, if the “country of exposure” of such money market instrument is a non-U.S. country). A security’s “country of exposure” is determined by PIMCO using certain factors provided by a third-party analytical service provider. The factors are applied in order such that the first factor to result in the assignment of a country determines the “country of exposure.” Both the factors and the order in which they are applied may change in the discretion of PIMCO. The current factors, listed in the order in which they are applied, are: (i) if an asset-backed or other collateralized security, the country in which the collateral backing the security is located; (ii) the “country of risk” of the issuer; (iii) if the security is guaranteed by the government of a country (or any political subdivision, agency, authority or instrumentality of such government), the country of the government or instrumentality providing the guarantee; (iv) the “country of risk” of the issuer’s ultimate parent; or (v) the country where the issuer is organized or incorporated under the laws thereof. “Country of risk” is a separate four-part test determined by the following factors, listed in order of importance: (i) management location; (ii) country of primary listing; (iii) sales or revenue attributable to the country; and (iv) reporting currency of the issuer. Further, with respect to the Equity-Related Funds’ derivative instruments, where a derivative instrument is exposed to an index, PIMCO generally considers the derivative to be economically tied to each country represented by the components of the underlying index pursuant to the criteria set forth in the sentence above.
To the extent that a Fund invests in instruments economically tied to non-U.S. countries, it may invest in a range of countries and, as such, the value of the Fund’s assets may be affected by uncertainties such as international political developments, including the imposition of sanctions and other similar measures, changes in government policies, changes in taxation, restrictions on foreign investment and currency repatriation, currency fluctuations, changes or uncertainty in exchange rates (and related risks, such as uncertainty regarding the reliability of issuers’ financial reporting) and other developments in the laws and regulations of countries in which investment may be made.
PIMCO generally considers an instrument to be economically tied to an emerging market country if: the issuer is organized under the laws of an emerging market country; the currency of settlement of the security is a currency of an emerging market country; the security is guaranteed by the government of an emerging market country (or any political subdivision, agency, authority or instrumentality of such government); for an asset-backed or other collateralized security, the country in which the collateral backing the security is located is an emerging market country; or the security’s “country of exposure” is an emerging market country, as determined by the criteria set forth below. With respect to derivative instruments, PIMCO generally considers such instruments to be economically tied to emerging market countries if the underlying assets are currencies of emerging market countries (or baskets or indexes
42

of such currencies), or instruments or securities that are issued or guaranteed by governments of emerging market countries or by entities organized under the laws of emerging market countries or if an instrument’s “country of exposure” is an emerging market country. A security’s “country of exposure” is determined by PIMCO using certain factors provided by a third-party analytical service provider. The factors are applied in order such that the first factor to result in the assignment of a country determines the “country of exposure.” Both the factors and the order in which they are applied may change in the discretion of PIMCO. The current factors, listed in the order in which they are applied, are: (i) if an asset-backed or other collateralized security, the country in which the collateral backing the security is located; (ii) the “country of risk” of the issuer; (iii) if the security is guaranteed by the government of a country (or any political subdivision, agency, authority or instrumentality of such government), the country of the government or instrumentality providing the guarantee; (iv) the “country of risk” of the issuer’s ultimate parent; or (v) the country where the issuer is organized or incorporated under the laws thereof. “Country of risk” is a separate four-part test determined by the following factors, listed in order of importance: (i) management location; (ii) country of primary listing; (iii) sales or revenue attributable to the country; and (iv) reporting currency of the issuer. PIMCO has broad discretion to identify countries that it considers to qualify as emerging markets. In exercising such discretion, PIMCO identifies countries as emerging markets consistent with the strategic objectives of the particular Fund. For example, a Fund may consider a country to be an emerging market country based on a number of factors including, but not limited to, if the country is classified as an emerging or developing economy by any supranational organization such as the World Bank or the United Nations, or related entities, or if the country is considered an emerging market country for purposes of constructing emerging markets indices. In some cases, this approach may result in PIMCO identifying a particular country as an emerging market with respect to certain Funds but not others.

Investment risk may be particularly high to the extent that a Fund invests in instruments economically tied to emerging market countries. These securities may present market, credit, currency, liquidity, legal, political and other risks different from, or greater than, the risks of investing in developed countries. Certain Funds may invest in emerging markets that may be in the process of opening to trans-national investment, which may increase these risks. Risks particular to emerging market countries include, but are not limited to, the following risks.
General Emerging Market Risk. The securities markets of countries in which the Funds may invest may be relatively small, with a limited number of companies representing a small number of industries. Additionally, issuers in countries in which the Funds may invest may not be subject to a high degree of regulation and the financial institutions with which the Funds may trade may not possess the same degree of financial sophistication, creditworthiness or resources as those in developed markets. Furthermore, the legal infrastructure and accounting, auditing and reporting standards in certain countries in which the Funds may invest may not provide the same degree of investor protection or information to investors as would generally apply in major securities markets. Emerging market countries typically have less established legal, accounting and financial reporting systems than those in more developed markets, which may reduce the scope or quality of financial information available to investors. Governments in emerging market countries are often less stable and more likely to take extra legal action with respect to companies, industries, assets, or foreign ownership than those in more developed markets. Moreover, it can be more difficult for investors to bring litigation or enforce judgments against issuers in emerging markets or for U.S. regulators to bring enforcement actions against such issuers.
Nationalization, expropriation or confiscatory taxation, currency blockage, political changes or diplomatic developments, including the imposition of sanctions or other similar measures, could adversely affect the Funds' investments in a foreign country. In the event of nationalization, expropriation or other confiscation, the Funds could lose their entire investment in that country. Adverse conditions in a certain region can adversely affect securities of other countries whose economies appear to be unrelated. To the extent a Fund invests in emerging market securities that are economically tied to a particular region, country or group of countries, the Fund may be more sensitive to adverse political or social events affecting that region, country or group of countries. Economic, business, political, or social instability may affect emerging market securities differently, and often more severely, than developed market securities.
Restrictions on Foreign Investment. A number of emerging securities markets restrict foreign investment to varying degrees. Furthermore, repatriation of investment income, capital and the proceeds of sales by foreign investors may require governmental registration and/or approval in some countries. While the Funds that may invest in securities and instruments that are economically tied to emerging market countries will only invest in markets where these restrictions are considered acceptable, new or additional repatriation or other restrictions might be imposed subsequent to the Funds' investment. If such restrictions were to be imposed subsequent to the Funds' investment in the securities markets of a particular country, the Funds' response might include, among other things, applying to the appropriate authorities for a waiver of the restrictions or engaging in transactions in other markets designed to offset the risks of decline in that country. Such restrictions will be considered in relation to the Funds' liquidity needs and all other acceptable positive and negative factors. Some emerging markets limit foreign investment, which may decrease returns
44

relative to domestic investors. The Funds may seek exceptions to those restrictions. If those restrictions are present and cannot be avoided by the Funds, the Funds' returns may be lower.
Settlement Risks. Settlement systems in emerging markets may be less well organized and less transparent than in developed markets and transactions may take longer to settle as a result. Supervisory authorities may also be unable to apply standards which are comparable with those in developed markets. Thus there may be risks that settlement may be delayed and that cash or securities belonging to the Funds may be in jeopardy because of failures of or defects in the systems. In particular, market practice may require that payment shall be made prior to receipt of the security which is being purchased or that delivery of a security must be made before payment is received. In such cases, default by a broker or bank (the “Counterparty”) through whom the relevant transaction is effected might result in a loss being suffered by the Fund. A Fund may not know the identity of a Counterparty, which may increase the possibility of the Funds not receiving payment or delivery of securities in a transaction. The Fund will seek, where possible, to use Counterparties whose financial status is such that this risk is reduced. However, there can be no certainty that the Funds will be successful in eliminating or reducing this risk, particularly as Counterparties operating in emerging market countries frequently lack the substance, capitalization and/or financial resources of those in developed countries.
There may also be a danger that, because of uncertainties in the operation of settlement systems in individual markets, competing claims may arise in respect of securities held by or to be transferred to the Funds. Furthermore, compensation schemes may be non-existent, limited or inadequate to meet the Funds' claims in any of these events.
Counterparty Risk. Trading in the securities of developing markets presents additional credit and financial risks. The Funds may have limited access to, or there may be a limited number of, potential Counterparties that trade in the securities of emerging market issuers. Governmental regulations may restrict potential Counterparties to certain financial institutions located or operating in the particular emerging market. Potential Counterparties may not possess, adopt or implement creditworthiness standards, financial reporting standards or legal and contractual protections similar to those in developed markets. Currency hedging techniques may not be available or may be limited. The Fund may not be able to reduce or mitigate risks related to trading with emerging market Counterparties. The Funds will seek, where possible, to use Counterparties whose financial status is such that the risk of default is reduced, but the risk of losses resulting from default is still possible.
Government in the Private Sector. Government involvement in the private sector varies in degree among the emerging markets in which the Funds invest. Such involvement may, in some cases, include government ownership of companies in certain sectors, wage and price controls or imposition of trade barriers and other protectionist measures. With respect to any emerging market country, there is no guarantee that some future economic or political crisis will not lead to price controls, forced mergers of companies, expropriation, or creation of government monopolies, to the possible detriment of the Funds' investment in that country.
Litigation. The Funds may encounter substantial difficulties in obtaining and enforcing judgments against individuals and companies located in certain emerging market countries. It may be difficult or impossible to obtain or enforce legislation or remedies against governments, their agencies and sponsored entities.
Fraudulent Securities. It is possible, particularly in markets in emerging market countries, that purported securities in which the Funds invest may subsequently be found to be fraudulent and as a consequence the Funds could suffer losses.
Taxation. Non-U.S. laws governing the taxation of income and capital gains accruing to non-residents varies among emerging market countries and, in some cases, is comparatively high. In addition, certain emerging market countries may not have well-defined tax laws and procedures and such laws or procedures may permit retroactive taxation so that the Funds could in the future become subject to local tax liabilities that had not been anticipated in conducting its investment activities or valuing its assets. The Funds will seek to reduce these risks by careful management of their assets. However, there can be no assurance that these efforts will be successful.
Political Risks/Risks of Conflicts. Recently, various countries have seen significant internal conflicts and in some cases, civil wars may have had an adverse impact on the securities markets of the countries concerned. In addition, the occurrence of new disturbances due to acts of war or other political developments cannot be excluded. Apparently stable systems may experience periods of disruption or improbable reversals of policy. Nationalization, expropriation
45

or confiscatory taxation, currency blockage, political changes, government regulation, political, regulatory or social instability or uncertainty or diplomatic developments, including the imposition of sanctions or other similar measures could adversely affect the Funds' investments. The transformation from a centrally planned, socialist economy to a more market oriented economy has also resulted in many economic and social disruptions and distortions. Moreover, there can be no assurance that the economic, regulatory and political initiatives necessary to achieve and sustain such a transformation will continue or, if such initiatives continue and are sustained, that they will be successful or that such initiatives will continue to benefit foreign (or non-national) investors. Certain instruments, such as inflation index instruments, may depend upon measures compiled by governments (or entities under their influence) which are also the obligors.
Each Fund (except for the PIMCO California Intermediate Municipal Bond, PIMCO California Municipal Bond, PIMCO California Municipal Intermediate Value, PIMCO California Municipal Opportunistic Value, PIMCO National Municipal Intermediate Value, PIMCO National Municipal Opportunistic Value, PIMCO California Short Duration Municipal Income, PIMCO Government Money Market, PIMCO High Yield Municipal Bond, PIMCO Long-Term U.S. Government, PIMCO Low Duration II, PIMCO Municipal Bond, PIMCO National Intermediate Municipal Bond, PIMCO New York Municipal Bond, PIMCO Short Duration Municipal Income and PIMCO Total Return II Funds) may invest in Brady Bonds. Brady Bonds are securities created through the exchange of existing commercial bank loans to sovereign entities for new obligations in connection with debt restructurings under a debt restructuring plan introduced by former U.S. Secretary of the Treasury, Nicholas F. Brady (the “Brady Plan”). Brady Plan debt restructurings were implemented in a number of countries, including: Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil, Bulgaria, Costa Rica, the Dominican Republic, Ecuador, Jordan, Mexico, Niger, Nigeria, Panama, Peru, the Philippines, Poland, Uruguay, and Venezuela. Beginning in the early 2000s, certain countries began retiring their Brady Bonds, including Brazil, Colombia, Mexico, the Philippines and Venezuela.
Brady Bonds may be collateralized or uncollateralized, are issued in various currencies (primarily the U.S. dollar) and are actively traded in the OTC secondary market. Brady Bonds are not considered to be U.S. Government securities. U.S. dollar-denominated, collateralized Brady Bonds, which may be fixed rate par bonds or floating rate discount bonds, are generally collateralized in full as to principal by U.S. Treasury zero coupon bonds having the same maturity as the Brady Bonds. Interest payments on these Brady Bonds generally are collateralized on a one-year or longer rolling-forward basis by cash or securities in an amount that, in the case of fixed rate bonds, is equal to at least one year of interest payments or, in the case of floating rate bonds, initially is equal to at least one year’s interest payments based on the applicable interest rate at that time and is adjusted at regular intervals thereafter. Certain Brady Bonds are entitled to “value recovery payments” in certain circumstances, which in effect constitute supplemental interest payments but generally are not collateralized. Brady Bonds are often viewed as having three or four valuation components: (i) the collateralized repayment of principal at final maturity; (ii) the collateralized interest payments; (iii) the uncollateralized interest payments; and (iv) any uncollateralized repayment of principal at maturity (these uncollateralized amounts constitute the “residual risk”).
Brady Bonds involve various risk factors including residual risk and the history of defaults with respect to commercial bank loans by public and private entities of countries issuing Brady Bonds. There can be no assurance that Brady Bonds in which a Fund may invest will not be subject to restructuring arrangements or to requests for new credit, which may cause the Fund to suffer a loss of interest or principal on any of its holdings.
Investment in sovereign debt can involve a high degree of risk. The governmental entity that controls the repayment of sovereign debt may not be able or willing to repay the principal and/or interest when due in accordance with the terms of the debt. A governmental entity’s willingness or ability to repay principal and interest due in a timely manner may be affected by, among other factors, its cash flow situation, the extent of its foreign reserves, the availability of sufficient foreign exchange on the date a payment is due, the relative size of the debt service burden to the economy as a whole, the governmental entity’s policy toward the International Monetary Fund, and the political constraints to which a governmental entity may be subject. Governmental entities also may depend on expected disbursements from foreign governments, multilateral agencies and others to reduce principal and interest arrearages on their debt. The commitment on the part of these governments, agencies and others to make such disbursements may be conditioned on a governmental entity’s implementation of economic reforms and/or economic performance and the timely service of such debtor’s obligations. Failure to implement such reforms, achieve such levels of economic performance or repay principal or interest when due may result in the cancellation of such third parties’ commitments to lend funds to the governmental entity, which may further impair such debtor’s ability or willingness to service its debts in a timely manner. Consequently, governmental entities may default on their sovereign debt. Holders of
46

sovereign debt (including the Funds) may be requested to participate in the rescheduling of such debt and to extend further loans to governmental entities. There is no bankruptcy proceeding by which sovereign debt on which governmental entities have defaulted may be collected in whole or in part.
The Fund’s investments in foreign currency denominated debt obligations and hedging activities will likely produce a difference between its book income and its taxable income. This difference may cause a portion of the Fund’s income distributions to constitute returns of capital for tax purposes or require the Fund to make distributions exceeding book income to qualify as a regulated investment company for federal tax purposes.
Euro- and EU-related risks. The global economic crisis brought several small economies in Europe to the brink of bankruptcy and many other economies into recession and weakened the banking and financial sectors of many European countries. For example, the governments of Greece, Spain, Portugal, and the Republic of Ireland have all experienced large public budget deficits, the effects of which are still yet unknown and may slow the overall recovery of the European economies from the global economic crisis. In addition, due to large public deficits, some European countries may be dependent on assistance from other European governments and institutions or other central banks or supranational agencies such as the International Monetary Fund. Assistance may be dependent on a country’s implementation of reforms or reaching a certain level of performance. Failure to reach those objectives or an insufficient level of assistance could result in a deep economic downturn which could significantly affect the value of a Fund’s European investments.
The Economic and Monetary Union of the European Union (“EMU”) is comprised of the European Union (“EU”) members that have adopted the euro currency. By adopting the euro as its currency, a member state relinquishes control of its own monetary policies. As a result, European countries are significantly affected by fiscal and monetary policies implemented by the EMU and European Central Bank. The euro currency may not fully reflect the strengths and weaknesses of the various economies that comprise the EMU and Europe generally.
It is possible that one or more EMU member countries could abandon the euro and return to a national currency and/or that the euro will cease to exist as a single currency in its current form. The effects of such an abandonment or a country’s forced expulsion from the euro on that country, the rest of the EMU, and global markets are impossible to predict, but are likely to be negative. The exit of any country out of the euro may have an extremely destabilizing effect on other eurozone countries and their economies and a negative effect on the global economy as a whole. Such an exit by one country may also increase the possibility that additional countries may exit the euro should they face similar financial difficulties. In addition, in the event of one or more countries’ exit from the euro, it may be difficult to value investments denominated in euros or in a replacement currency.
On January 31, 2020, the United Kingdom officially withdrew from the EU (commonly known as “Brexit”). Upon the United Kingdom’s withdrawal, the EU and the United Kingdom entered into a transition phase, which concluded on December 31, 2020. Negotiators representing the United Kingdom and EU came to a preliminary trade agreement that took effect on January 1, 2021, but many aspects of the United Kingdom-EU trade relationship remain subject to further negotiation. Uncertainties remain relating to certain aspects of the United Kingdom’s future economic, trading and legal relationships with the European Union and with other countries. Due to political uncertainty, it is not possible to anticipate the form or nature of the future trading relationship between the United Kingdom and the EU. The UK, EU and broader global economy may experience substantial volatility in foreign exchange markets and a sustained weakness in the British pound’s exchange rate against the United States dollar, the euro and other currencies, which may impact Fund returns. Brexit may also destabilize some or all of the other EU member countries and/or the Eurozone. These developments could result in losses to the Funds, as there may be negative effects on the value of a Funds' investments and/or on a Funds' ability to enter into certain transactions or value certain investments, and these developments may make it more difficult for a Fund to exit certain investments at an advantageous time or price. Such events could result from, among other things, increased uncertainty and volatility in the United Kingdom, the EU and other financial markets; fluctuations in asset values; fluctuations in exchange rates; decreased liquidity of investments located, traded or listed within the United Kingdom, the EU or elsewhere; changes in the willingness or ability of financial and other counterparties to enter into transactions or the price and terms on which other counterparties are willing to transact; and/or changes in legal and regulatory regimes to which Fund investments are or become subject. Any of these events, as well as an exit or expulsion of an EU member state other than the United Kingdom from the EU, could negatively impact Fund returns.

Investments in Russia. Certain Funds may invest in securities and instruments that are economically tied to Russia. In determining whether an instrument is economically tied to Russia, PIMCO uses the criteria for determining whether an instrument is economically tied to an emerging market country as set forth above under “Foreign Securities.” In addition to the risks listed above under “Foreign Securities,” investing in Russia presents additional risks. In particular, investments in Russia are subject to the risk that the United States and/or other countries may impose economic sanctions or other similar measures. Other similar measures may include, but are not limited to, banning Russia or certain persons or entities associated with Russia from global payment systems that facilitate cross-border payments, restricting the settlement of securities transactions by certain investors, and freezing Russian assets or those of particular countries, entities or persons with ties to Russia. Such sanctions or other similar measures – which may impact companies in many sectors, including energy, financial services and defense, among others – may negatively impact a Fund’s performance and/or ability to achieve its investment objective. For example, certain investments in Russian companies or instruments tied to Russian companies may be prohibited and/or existing investments may become illiquid (e.g., in the event that transacting in certain existing investments is prohibited, securities markets close, or market participants cease transacting in certain investments in light of geopolitical events, sanctions or related considerations), which could render any such securities held by a Fund unmarketable for an indefinite period of time and/or cause a Fund to sell other portfolio holdings at a disadvantageous time or price in order to meet shareholder redemptions. It is also possible that such sanctions or similar measures may prevent U.S.-based entities that provide services to a Fund from transacting with Russian entities. Under such circumstances, a Fund may not receive payments due with respect to certain investments, such as the payments due in connection with the Fund’s holding of a fixed income security. In addition, such sanctions and other similar measures, and the Russian government’s response, could result in a downgrade of Russia’s credit rating or of securities of issuers located in or economically tied to Russia, devaluation of Russia’s currency and/or increased volatility with respect to Russian securities and the ruble. More generally, investing in Russian securities is highly speculative and involves significant risks and special considerations not typically associated with investing in the securities markets of the U.S. and most other developed countries. Over the past century, Russia has experienced political, social and economic turbulence and has endured decades of communist rule under which tens of millions of its citizens were collectivized into state agricultural and industrial enterprises. Since the collapse of the Soviet Union, Russia’s government has been faced with the daunting task of stabilizing its domestic economy, while transforming it into a modern and efficient structure able to compete in international markets and respond to the needs of its citizens. However, to date, many of the country’s economic reform initiatives have floundered. In this environment, there is always the risk that the nation’s government will abandon the current program of economic reform and replace it with radically different political and economic policies that would be detrimental to the interests of foreign investors. This could entail a return to a centrally planned economy and nationalization of private enterprises similar to what existed under the old Soviet Union.
Russia has attempted, and may attempt in the future, to assert its influence in the region surrounding it through economic or military measures. For example, in February 2022, Russia launched a large-scale invasion of Ukraine. Such measures may have an adverse effect on the Russian economy, which may, in turn, negatively impact a Fund. Moreover, disruptions caused by Russian military action or other actions (including cyberattacks, espionage or other asymmetric measures) or resulting actual or threatened responses to such activity may impact Russia’s economy and Russian issuers of securities in which a Fund invests. Such resulting actual or threatened responses may include, but are not limited to, purchasing, selling and financing restrictions, withdrawal of financial intermediaries, boycotts or changes in consumer or purchaser preferences, sanctions, tariffs or cyberattacks on the Russian government, Russian companies or Russian individuals, including politicians. Sanctions and other similar measures have resulted in defaults on debt obligations by certain corporate issuers and the Russian Federation that could lead to cross-defaults or cross-accelerations on other obligations of these issuers. Default by the Russian Federation on its sovereign debt will have implications to credit default swaps in relation to the Russian Federation. A Fund’s ability to participate in any resulting credit default swap auction or physical settlement process may be limited by, among other things, sanctions or other similar measures.
Poor accounting standards, inept management, pervasive corruption, insider trading and crime, and inadequate regulatory protection for the rights of investors all pose a significant risk, particularly to foreign investors. In addition, there is the risk that the Russian tax system will not be reformed to prevent inconsistent, retroactive, and/or exorbitant taxation, or, in the alternative, the risk that a reformed tax system may result in the inconsistent and unpredictable enforcement of the new tax laws. Investments in Russia may be subject to the risk of nationalization or expropriation of assets. Regional armed conflict and its collateral economic and market effects may also pose risks for investments in Russia.

Compared to most national securities markets, the Russian securities market suffers from a variety of problems not encountered in more developed markets. There is little long-term historical data on the Russian securities market because it is relatively new and a substantial proportion of securities transactions in Russia are privately negotiated outside of stock exchanges. The inexperience of the Russian securities market and the limited volume of trading in securities in the market may make obtaining accurate prices on portfolio securities from independent sources more difficult than in more developed markets. Additionally, because of less stringent auditing and financial reporting standards than apply to U.S. companies, there may be little reliable corporate information available to investors. As a result, it may be difficult to assess the value or prospects of an investment in Russian companies. Securities of Russian companies also may experience greater price volatility than securities of U.S. companies. These issues can be magnified as a result of sanctions and other similar measures that may be imposed and the Russian government’s response.
Because of the recent formation of the Russian securities market as well as the underdeveloped state of the banking and telecommunications systems, settlement, clearing and registration of securities transactions are subject to significant risks. Prior to the implementation of the National Settlement Depository (“NSD”), a recognized central securities depository, there was no central registration system for equity share registration in Russia and registration was carried out by either the issuers themselves or by registrars located throughout Russia. Title to Russian equities held through the NSD is now based on the records of the NSD and not the registrars. Although the implementation of the NSD has enhanced the efficiency and transparency of the Russian securities market, issues resulting in loss still can occur. Ownership of securities issued by Russian companies that are not held through depositories such as the NSD may be defined according to entries in the company’s share register and normally evidenced by extracts from the register or by formal share certificates. These services may be carried out by the companies themselves or by registrars located throughout Russia. In such cases, the risk is increased that a Fund could lose ownership rights through fraud, negligence, or even mere oversight. While a Fund will endeavor to ensure that its interest continues to be appropriately recorded either itself or through a custodian or other agent by inspecting the share register and by obtaining extracts of share registers through regular confirmations, these extracts have no legal enforceability and it is possible that subsequent illegal amendment or other fraudulent act may deprive the Fund of its ownership rights or improperly dilute its interests. In addition, while applicable Russian regulations impose liability on registrars for losses resulting from their errors, it may be difficult for a Fund to enforce any rights it may have against the registrar or issuer of the securities in the event of loss of share registration. Furthermore, significant delays or problems may occur in registering the transfer of securities, which could cause a Fund to incur losses due to a counterparty’s failure to pay for securities the Fund has delivered or the Fund’s inability to complete its contractual obligations because of theft or other reasons.
In addition, issuers and registrars are still prominent in the validation and approval of documentation requirements for corporate action processing in Russia. Because the documentation requirements and approval criteria vary between registrars and issuers, there remain unclear and inconsistent market standards in the Russian market with respect to the completion and submission of corporate action elections. To the extent that a Fund suffers a loss relating to title or corporate actions relating to its portfolio securities, it may be difficult for the Fund to enforce its rights or otherwise remedy the loss. Russian securities laws may not recognize foreign nominee accounts held with a custodian bank, and therefore the custodian may be considered the ultimate owner of securities they hold for their clients. A Fund also may experience difficulty in obtaining and/or enforcing judgments in Russia.
The Russian economy is heavily dependent upon the export of a range of commodities including most industrial metals, forestry products, oil, and gas. Accordingly, it is strongly affected by international commodity prices and is particularly vulnerable to any weakening in global demand for these products, and to sanctions or other actions that may be directed at the Russian economy as a whole or at Russian oil, natural gas, metals or timber industries.
Foreign investors also face a high degree of currency risk when investing in Russian securities and a lack of available currency hedging instruments. In addition, there is the risk that the Russian government may impose capital controls on foreign portfolio investments in the event of extreme financial or political crisis. Such capital controls may prevent the sale of a portfolio of foreign assets and the repatriation of investment income and capital.
Investments in the People’s Republic of China . Certain Funds that may invest in emerging market countries may invest in securities and instruments that are economically tied to the People’s Republic of China (excluding Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan for the purpose of this disclosure) (“PRC”). Such investment may be made through various available market access programs including but not limited to PRC qualified foreign institutional investors (“FII”)
49

program, including the qualified foreign institutional investor (“QFII”) program and RMB qualified foreign institutional investor (“RQFII”) program, which are now merged into one program based on recent PRC regulatory developments. In determining whether an instrument is economically tied to the PRC, PIMCO uses the criteria for determining whether an instrument is economically tied to an emerging market country as set forth above under “Foreign Securities.” In addition to the risks listed above with respect to investing in non-U.S. securities and in emerging markets, including those associated with investing in emerging markets, investing in the PRC presents additional risks. These additional risks include (without limitation): (a) inefficiencies resulting from erratic growth; (b) the unavailability of consistently-reliable economic data; (c) potentially high rates of inflation; (d) dependence on exports and international trade; (e) relatively high levels of asset price volatility; (f) potential shortage of liquidity and limited accessibility by foreign investors; (g) greater competition from regional economies; (h) fluctuations in currency exchange rates or currency devaluation by the PRC government or central bank, particularly in light of the relative lack of currency hedging instruments and controls on the ability to exchange local currency for U.S. dollars; (i) the relatively small size and absence of operating history of many PRC companies; (j) the developing nature of the legal and regulatory framework for securities markets, custody arrangements and commerce; (k) uncertainty and potential changes with respect to the rules and regulations of the FII program and other market access programs through which such investments are made; (l) the commitment of the PRC government to continue with its economic reforms; and (m) Chinese regulators may suspend trading in Chinese issuers (or permit such issuers to suspend trading) during market disruptions, and that such suspensions may be widespread. In addition, certain securities are, or may in the future become, restricted, and a Fund may be forced to sell such restricted security and incur a loss as a result.
In addition, there also exists control on foreign investment in the PRC and limitations on repatriation of invested capital. Under the FII program, there are certain regulatory restrictions particularly on aspects including (without limitation to) investment scope, repatriation of funds, foreign shareholding limit and account structure. Although the relevant FII regulations have recently been revised to relax certain regulatory restrictions on the onshore investment and capital management by FIIs (including but not limited to removing investment quota limit and simplifying routine repatriation of investment proceeds), it is a very new development therefore subject to uncertainties as to how well it will be implemented in practice, especially at the early stage. As a result of PRC regulatory requirements, a Fund may be limited in its ability to invest in securities or instruments tied to the PRC and/or may be required to liquidate its holdings in securities or instruments tied to the PRC. Under certain instances such as when the price of the securities is at a low level, the involuntary liquidations may result in losses for a Fund. On the other hand, the recently amended FII regulations are also enhancing ongoing supervision on FIIs in terms of information disclosure among other aspects. In particular, FIIs are required to procure their underlying clients (such as any Fund investing in PRC securities via FII program) to comply with PRC disclosure of interests rules (e.g., the 5% substantial shareholder reporting obligation and the applicable aggregation with concerted parties and across holdings under various access channels including FII program and Stock Connect (as defined below)) and make the required disclosure on behalf of such underlying investors.
Where a Fund invests in fixed income securities and/or eligible securities through the FII program, such securities will be maintained by a local custodian pursuant to PRC regulations through appropriate securities accounts and such other relevant depositories in such name as may be permitted or required in accordance with PRC law. Any securities acquired by a Fund held by the FII will be maintained by the PRC custodian and should be registered in the joint names of the FII and the relevant Fund and for the sole benefit and use of such Fund. Although the Fund should be the party entitled to the securities, the related security may still be vulnerable to a claim by a liquidator of the FII and may not be as well protected as if they were registered solely in the name of the respective Fund. In addition, investors should note that cash deposited in the cash account of the relevant Fund with the relevant PRC custodian will not be segregated but will be a debt owing from the PRC custodian to the relevant Fund as a depositor. Such cash will be co-mingled with cash belonging to other clients of that local custodian. In the event of bankruptcy or liquidation of the local custodian, the relevant Fund will not have any proprietary rights to the cash deposited in such cash account, and the relevant Fund will become an unsecured creditor, ranking equal with all other unsecured creditors, of the PRC custodian. The relevant Fund may face difficulty and/or encounter delays in recovering such debt, or may not be able to recover it in full or at all, in which case the relevant Fund will suffer losses.
In addition, securities exchanges in the PRC typically have the right to suspend or limit trading in any security traded on the relevant exchange. The PRC government or relevant PRC regulators may also implement policies that may adversely affect the PRC financial markets. Such suspensions, limitations or policies may have a negative impact on the performance of a Fund’s investments.
50

Although the PRC has experienced a relatively stable political environment in recent years, there is no guarantee that such stability will be maintained in the future.
The PRC is ruled by the Communist Party. Investments in the PRC are subject to risks associated with greater governmental control over and involvement in the economy. Unlike in the United States, the PRC’s currency is not determined by the market, but is instead managed at artificial levels relative to the U.S. dollar. This type of system can lead to sudden and large adjustments in the currency, which, in turn, can have a disruptive and negative effect on foreign investors. The PRC also may restrict the free conversion of its currency into foreign currencies, including the U.S. dollar. Currency repatriation restrictions may have the effect of making securities and instruments tied to the PRC relatively illiquid, particularly in connection with redemption requests. In addition, the government of the PRC exercises significant control over economic growth through direct and heavy involvement in resource allocation and monetary policy, control over payment of foreign currency denominated obligations and provision of preferential treatment to particular industries and/or companies. Economic reform programs in the PRC have contributed to growth, but there is no guarantee that such reforms will continue.
The PRC has historically been prone to natural disasters such as droughts, floods, earthquakes and tsunamis, and the region’s economy may be affected by such environmental events in the future. A Fund’s investment in the PRC is, therefore, subject to the risk of such events. In addition, the relationship between the PRC and Taiwan is particularly sensitive, and hostilities between the PRC and Taiwan may present a risk to a Fund’s investments in the PRC.
The application of tax laws (e.g., the imposition of withholding taxes on dividend or interest payments) or confiscatory taxation may also affect a Fund’s investment in the PRC. Because the rules governing taxation of investments in securities and instruments economically tied to the PRC are not always clear, PIMCO may provide for capital gains taxes on Funds investing in such securities and instruments by reserving both realized and unrealized gains from disposing or holding securities and instruments economically tied to the PRC. This approach is based on current market practice and PIMCO’s understanding of the applicable tax rules. Changes in market practice or understanding of the applicable tax rules may result in the amounts reserved being too great or too small relative to actual tax burdens.
In addition, because the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board are generally restricted from inspecting the audit work and practices of registered accountants in the PRC, there is the risk that material accounting and financial information about PRC issuers may be unavailable or unreliable.
Investing through Stock Connect. Certain Funds may invest in eligible securities (“Stock Connect Securities”) listed and traded on the Shanghai Stock Exchange (“SSE”) or the Shenzhen Stock Exchange (“SZSE”) through the Shanghai - Hong Kong Stock Connect program and the Shenzhen - Hong Kong Stock Connect program (collectively, “Stock Connect”). Stock Connect allows non-Chinese investors (such as the Funds) to purchase certain PRC-listed equities via brokers in Hong Kong. Although Stock Connect is the first program allowing non-Chinese investors to trade Chinese equities without a license, purchases of securities through Stock Connect are subject to market-wide daily quota limitations, which may prevent a Fund from purchasing Stock Connect securities when it is otherwise advantageous to do so. Once such daily quota on SSE or SZSE is used up, acceptance of the corresponding buy orders on SSE or SZSE (as applicable) will be immediately suspended and no further buy orders will be accepted for the remainder of the trading day. Buy orders which have been accepted will not be affected by the using up of the daily quota, while sell orders will continue to be accepted. An investor cannot purchase and sell the same security on the same trading day, which may restrict a Fund’s ability to invest in China A-shares through Stock Connect and to enter into or exit trades where it is advantageous to do so on the same trading day. Because Stock Connect trades are routed through Hong Kong brokers and the Hong Kong Stock Exchange, Stock Connect is affected by trading holidays in either the PRC or Hong Kong, and there are trading days in the PRC when Stock Connect investors will not be able to trade. As a result, prices of Stock Connect may fluctuate at times when the Fund is unable to add to or exit its position. Only certain China A-shares are eligible to be accessed through Stock Connect. Such securities may lose their eligibility at any time, in which case they could be sold but could no longer be purchased through Stock Connect. The applicable rules as well as trading, settlement and information technology (“IT”) systems required to operate Stock Connect are continuing to evolve. In the event that the relevant systems do not function properly, trading through Stock Connect could be disrupted.
Stock Connect is subject to regulations by both Hong Kong and the PRC. Regulators in both jurisdictions are allowed to suspend Stock Connect trading; Chinese regulators may also suspend trading in Chinese issuers (or permit
51

such issuers to suspend trading) during market disruptions, and such suspensions may be widespread. There can be no assurance that further regulations will not affect the availability of securities under Stock Connect, operational arrangements or other limitations. Stock Connect transactions are not covered by investor protection programs of either the Hong Kong, Shanghai or Shenzhen Stock Exchanges, although for defaults by Hong Kong brokers occurring on or after January 1, 2020, the Hong Kong Investor Compensation Fund will cover losses incurred by investors with a cap at HK $500,000 per investor with respect to securities traded on a stock market operated by the SSE and/or SZSE and in respect of which an order for sale or purchase is permitted to be routed through the northbound link of the Stock Connect. In the PRC, Stock Connect securities are held on behalf of ultimate investors (such as the Fund) by the Hong Kong Securities Clearing Company Limited (“HKSCC”) as nominee. While Chinese regulators have affirmed that the ultimate investors hold a beneficial interest in Stock Connect securities, the mechanisms that beneficial owners may use to enforce their rights are untested. In addition, courts in China have limited experience in applying the concept of beneficial ownership and the law surrounding beneficial ownership will continue to evolve. To the extent HKSCC is deemed to be performing safekeeping functions with respect to assets held through it, a Fund has no legal relationship with HKSCC and no direct legal recourse against HKSCC in the event that the Fund suffers losses resulting from the performance or insolvency of HKSCC. In this event, a Fund may not fully recover its losses and the process could be delayed. A Fund may not be able to participate in corporate actions affecting Stock Connect securities due to time constraints or for other operational reasons. Similarly, a Fund will not be able to vote in shareholders’ meetings except through HKSCC and will not be able to attend shareholders’ meetings. HKSCC as nominee holder shall have no obligation to take any legal action or court proceeding to enforce any rights on behalf of the investors in respect of the Stock Connect securities in the PRC or elsewhere. Therefore, even though a Fund’s ownership may be ultimately recognized, the Fund may suffer difficulties or delays in enforcing their rights in A-shares. Stock Connect trades are settled in Renminbi (RMB), the Chinese currency, and investors must have timely access to a reliable supply of RMB in Hong Kong, which cannot be guaranteed.
Stock Connect trades are either subject to certain pre-trade requirements or must be placed in special segregated accounts that allow brokers to comply with these pre-trade requirements by confirming that the selling shareholder has sufficient Stock Connect securities to complete the sale. If a Fund does not utilize a special segregated account, a Fund will not be able to sell the shares on any trading day where it fails to comply with the pre-trade checks. In addition, these pre-trade requirements may, as a practical matter, limit the number of brokers that a Fund may use to execute trades. While the Fund may use special segregated accounts in lieu of the pre-trade check, relevant market practice with respect to special segregated accounts is continuing to evolve.
Investing through CIBM Direct. To the extent permissible by the relevant PRC regulations or authorities, the Funds may also directly invest in permissible products (which include cash bonds) traded on China inter-bank bond market (“CIBM”) in compliance with the relevant rules issued by the People’s Bank of China (“PBOC”, including its Shanghai Head Office) in 2016 including the Announcement No.3 and its implementing rules (“CIBM Direct Rules”). An onshore trading and settlement agent shall be engaged by PIMCO as the manager of the Fund to make the filing on behalf of the relevant Fund and conduct trading and settlement agency services for the Fund. PBOC will exercise on-going supervision on the onshore settlement agent and the Fund’s trading under the CIBM Direct Rules and may take relevant administrative actions such as suspension of trading and mandatory exit against the Fund and/or PIMCO in the event of any incompliance with the CIBM Direct Rules. Although there is no quota limitation regarding investment via the CIBM Direct, a Fund is required to make further filings with the PBOC if it wishes to increase its anticipated investment size. There is no guarantee the PBOC will accept such further filings. In the event any further filings for an increase in the anticipated investment size are not accepted by the PBOC, a Fund’s ability to invest via the CIBM Direct will be limited and the performance of the relevant Fund may be unfavorably affected as a result. Since the relevant filings, registration with PBOC, and account opening for investment in the CIBM via the CIBM Direct have to be carried out via an onshore settlement agent, registration agent or other third parties (as the case may be), the relevant Fund is subject to the risks of default or errors on the part of such third parties. The relevant Fund may also incur losses due to the acts or omissions of the onshore settlement agent in the process of settling any transactions. As a result, the net asset value of the relevant Fund may be adversely affected. In addition, investors should note that cash deposited in the cash account of the relevant Fund with the relevant onshore settlement agent will not be segregated. In the event of the bankruptcy or liquidation of the onshore settlement agent, the relevant Fund will not have any proprietary rights to the cash deposited in such cash account and may face difficulty and/or encounter delays in recovering such assets, or may not be able to recover it in full or at all, in which case the Fund will suffer losses. The CIBM Direct Rules are relatively new and are still subject to continuous evolvement, which may adversely affect the Fund's capability to invest in the CIBM. A Fund will be tested for compliance with investment limitations for instruments traded on CIBM (including instruments traded through both CIBM Direct and the Bond Connect
52

Program) prior to the trade. Therefore, a Fund will not be in violation of an investment limitation if the Fund submits a trade for an instrument traded on CIBM and the trade is not completed until the following day if the Fund was in compliance with the applicable limitation at the time of the initial compliance test. Similarly, a Fund will not be in violation of an investment limitation if the Fund submits a trade for two complementary instruments (such as a foreign currency transaction and a bond) traded on CIBM and one of the trades is not completed until the following day if the Fund was in compliance with the applicable percentage limitation for both instruments at the time of the initial compliance test. Investing in the CIBM via CIBM Direct is also subject to certain restrictions imposed by the PRC authorities on fund remittance and repatriation which may potentially affect a Fund’s performance and liquidity. Any non-compliance with or failure to meet the fund remittance and repatriation requirements may result in regulatory sanctions which in turn may have an adverse impact on the portion of a Fund’s investment via the CIBM Direct. Further, there is no assurance that the fund remittance and repatriation requirements in relation to investment in CIBM will not be changed as a result of change in government policies or foreign exchange control policies. A Fund may incur loss in the event such change in the fund remittance and repatriation requirements in relation to investment in CIBM occurs.
CIBM Direct RFQ Trading. In September 2020, CIBM direct RFQ trading service was launched by the National Interbank Funding Center (“CFETS”). Under such service, foreign investors under CIBM Direct may solicit cash bond trading with domestic market makers by requesting for quotation (“RFQ”) and confirm the trades in CFETS system. As a novel arrangement under CIBM Direct, CIBM direct RFQ trading may be subject to further adjustments and uncertainties in implementation, which may have an adverse impact on the Fund’s investment to the extent the Fund transacts via CIBM direct RFQ trading mechanism.
Investing Through Bond Connect. In addition to the risks described under “Foreign Securities” and “Investments in the People’s Republic of China,” there are risks associated with a Fund’s investment in Chinese government bonds and other PRC-based debt instruments traded on the CIBM through the Bond Connect program. The Bond Connect refers to the arrangement between Hong Kong and PRC that enables the PRC and overseas investors to trade various types of debt securities in each other’s bond markets through connection between the relevant respective financial infrastructure institutions. Trading through Bond Connect is subject to a number of restrictions that may affect a Fund’s investments and returns. Investments made through Bond Connect are subject to order, clearance and settlement procedures that are relatively untested in the PRC, which could pose risks to a Fund. Furthermore, securities purchased via Bond Connect will be held on behalf of ultimate investors (such as a Fund) via a book entry omnibus account in the name of the Hong Kong Monetary Authority Central Money Markets Unit maintained with a PRC-based custodian (either the China Central Depository & Clearing Co. (“CDCC”) or the Shanghai Clearing House (“SCH”)). A Fund’s ownership interest in Bond Connect securities will not be reflected directly in book entry with CDCC or SCH and will instead only be reflected on the books of its Hong Kong sub-custodian. This recordkeeping system also subjects a Fund to various risks, including the risk that the Fund may have a limited ability to enforce rights as a bondholder as well as the risks of settlement delays and counterparty default of the Hong Kong sub-custodian. While the ultimate investors hold a beneficial interest in Bond Connect securities, the mechanisms that beneficial owners may use to enforce their rights are untested and courts in the PRC have limited experience in applying the concept of beneficial ownership. As such, a Fund may not be able to participate in corporate actions affecting its rights as a bondholder, such as timely payment of distributions, due to time constraints or for other operational reasons. Investors who wish to participate in Bond Connect do so through an offshore custody agent, registration agent or other third parties (as the case may be), who would be responsible for making the relevant filings and account opening with the relevant authorities. A Fund is therefore subject to the risk of default or errors on the part of such agents. Bond Connect trades are settled in RMB and investors must have timely access to a reliable supply of RMB in Hong Kong, which cannot be guaranteed. Moreover, securities purchased through Bond Connect generally may not be sold, purchased or otherwise transferred other than through Bond Connect in accordance with applicable rules.
A primary feature of Bond Connect is the application of the home market’s laws and rules applicable to investors in Chinese fixed-income instruments. Therefore, a Fund’s investments in securities via Bond Connect are generally subject to Chinese securities regulations and listing rules, among other restrictions. Such securities may lose their eligibility at any time, in which case they could be sold but could no longer be purchased through Bond Connect. A Fund will not benefit from access to Hong Kong investor compensation funds, which are set up to protect against defaults of trades, when investing through Bond Connect. Bond Connect is only available on days when markets in both the PRC and Hong Kong are open. As a result, prices of securities purchased through Bond Connect may fluctuate at times when a Fund is unable to add to or exit its position and, therefore, may limit the Fund’s ability to
53

trade when it would be otherwise attractive to do so. Finally, uncertainties in the PRC tax rules governing taxation of income and gains from investments via Bond Connect could result in unexpected tax liabilities for a Fund. The withholding tax treatment of dividends and capital gains payable to overseas investors currently is unsettled.
The Bond Connect program is a relatively new program and may be subject to further interpretation and guidance. In addition, the trading, settlement and IT systems required for non-Chinese investors in Bond Connect are relatively new and continuing to evolve. In the event that the relevant systems do not function properly, trading through Bond Connect could be disrupted. There can be no assurance that further regulations will not affect the availability of securities in the program, the frequency of redemptions or other limitations. In addition, the application and interpretation of the laws and regulations of Hong Kong and the PRC, and the rules, policies or guidelines published or applied by relevant regulators and exchanges in respect of the Bond Connect program are uncertain, and they may have a detrimental effect on a Fund’s investments and returns.
There are still some uncertainties in the PRC tax rules governing taxation of income and gains from investments in the PRC due to the lack of formal guidance from the PRC’s tax authorities that could result in unexpected tax liabilities for a Fund. If a Fund is considered a tax resident enterprise of the PRC, it will be subject to PRC corporate income tax (“CIT”) at 25% on its worldwide taxable income. If a Fund is considered a non-tax resident enterprise with a permanent establishment or place or establishment of business (“PE”) in the PRC, the profits attributable to that PE would be subject to CIT at 25%. Under the PRC CIT Law effective from December 29, 2018 and its implementation rules, a non-PRC tax resident enterprise without a PE in the PRC will generally be subject to withholding income tax (“WIT”) of 10% on its PRC sourced income, including but not limited to passive income (e.g. dividends, interest, gains arising from transfer of assets, etc.). Unless a specific exemption is applicable, non-PRC tax resident enterprises are subject to WIT on the payment of interests on debt instruments issued by PRC tax resident enterprises, including bonds issued by enterprises established within the PRC. The general WIT rate applicable is 10%, subject to reduction under an applicable double tax treaty and agreement by the PRC tax authorities.
Interest derived from government bonds issued by the in-charge Finance Bureau of the State Council and/or local government bonds approved by the State Council is exempt from CIT under the PRC Law. According to a tax circular jointly issued by the Ministry of Finance of the PRC (“MoF”) and the State Administration of Taxation of the PRC (“SAT”) on November 7, 2018, i.e. Circular on the Enterprise Income Tax and Value-Added Tax Policies for Foreign Institutions investing in Onshore Bond Markets (“Circular 108”), the foreign institutional investors were temporarily exempt from PRC CIT with respect to bond interest income derived in the PRC bond market for the period from November 7, 2018 to November 6, 2021. On November 26, 2021, the PRC Ministry of Finance and PRC State Taxation Administration jointly issued Caishui [2021] No. 34 (“Circular 34”) to formally extend the tax exemption period provided in Circular 108 to December 31, 2025. The scope of such PRC CIT exemption has excluded bond interest gained by foreign investors’ onshore entities/establishment that are directly connected with such onshore entities/establishment. However, there is no guarantee that such temporary tax exemption will continue to apply, will not be repealed and re-imposed retrospective, or that no new tax regulations and practice in China specifically relating to the PRC bond market will not be promulgated in the future.
Variable Interest Entities. Certain Funds may obtain exposure to companies based or operated in the PRC by investing through legal structures known as variable interest entities (“VIEs”). Because of Chinese governmental restrictions on non-Chinese ownership of companies in certain industries in the PRC, certain Chinese companies have used VIEs to facilitate foreign investment without distributing direct ownership of companies based or operated in the PRC. In such cases, the Chinese operating company establishes an offshore company, and the offshore company enters into contractual arrangements (such as powers of attorney, equity pledge agreements and other services or business cooperation agreements) with the operating company. These contractual arrangements are intended to give the offshore company the ability to exercise power over and obtain economic rights from the operating company. Shares of the offshore company, in turn, are listed and traded on exchanges outside of the PRC and are available to non-Chinese investors such as a Fund. This arrangement allows non-Chinese investors in the offshore company to obtain economic exposure to the Chinese company without direct equity ownership in the Chinese company. Although VIEs are a longstanding industry practice and well known to officials and regulators in the PRC, VIEs are not formally recognized under Chinese law. There is a risk that the PRC may cease to tolerate VIEs at any time or impose new restrictions on the structure, in each case either generally or with respect to specific industries, sectors or companies. Investments involving a VIE may also pose additional risks because such investments are made through a company whose interests in the underlying operating company are established through contract rather than through equity ownership. For example, in the event of a dispute, the offshore company’s contractual claims with respect to the operating company
54

may be deemed unenforceable in the PRC, thus limiting (or eliminating) the remedies and rights available to the offshore company and its investors. Such legal uncertainty may also be exploited against the interests of the offshore company and its investors. Further, the interests of the equity owners of the operating company may conflict with the interests of the investors of the offshore company, and the fiduciary duties of the officers and directors of the operating company may differ from, or conflict with, the fiduciary duties of the officers and directors of the offshore company. Foreign companies listed on U.S. exchanges, including offshore companies that utilize a VIE structure, also could face delisting or other ramifications for failure to meet the requirements of the SEC, the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board or other United States regulators. Any of the foregoing risks and events could negatively impact a Fund's performance.
Foreign Currency Transactions
All Funds that may invest in foreign currency-denominated securities also may purchase and sell foreign currency options and foreign currency futures contracts and related options (see “Derivative Instruments”), and may engage in foreign currency transactions either on a spot (cash) basis at the rate prevailing in the currency exchange market at the time or through forward currency contracts (“forwards”). Funds may engage in these transactions in order to attempt to protect against uncertainty in the level of future foreign exchange rates in the purchase and sale of securities. Funds also may use foreign currency options and foreign currency forward contracts to increase exposure to a foreign currency or to shift exposure to foreign currency fluctuations from one currency to another.
A forward involves an obligation to purchase or sell a certain amount of a specific currency at a future date, which may be three business days or more from the date of the contract agreed upon by the parties, at a price set at the time of the contract. These contracts may be bought or sold to protect a Fund against a possible loss resulting from an adverse change in the relationship between foreign currencies and the U.S. dollar or to increase exposure to a particular foreign currency. In accordance with current federal securities laws, rules and staff positions, open positions in forwards used for non-hedging purposes will be covered by the segregation or “earmarking” of assets determined to be liquid by PIMCO, and are marked-to-market daily. Certain forward contracts that are not required to “cash settle” may be treated as such for asset segregation or “earmarking” purposes when a Fund has entered into a contractual arrangement with its counterparty to require the trade to be closed out or cash settled prior to or in lieu of physical settlement. Although, when used for hedging, forwards are intended to minimize the risk of loss due to a decline in the value of the hedged currencies, at the same time, they tend to limit any potential gain which might result should the value of such currencies increase. Forwards are used primarily to adjust the foreign exchange exposure of a Fund with a view to protecting the outlook, and the Funds might be expected to enter into such contracts under the following circumstances:
Lock In.     When PIMCO desires to lock in the U.S. dollar price on the purchase or sale of a security denominated in a foreign currency.
Cross Hedge.     If a particular currency is expected to decrease against another currency, a Fund may sell the currency expected to decrease and purchase a currency which is expected to increase against the currency sold in an amount approximately equal to some or all of the Fund’s portfolio holdings denominated in the currency sold.
Direct Hedge.     If PIMCO wants to eliminate substantially all of the risk of owning a particular currency, and/or if PIMCO thinks that a Fund can benefit from price appreciation in a given country’s bonds but does not want to hold the currency, it may employ a direct hedge back into the U.S. dollar. In either case, a Fund would enter into a forward contract to sell the currency in which a portfolio security is denominated and purchase U.S. dollars at an exchange rate established at the time it initiated the contract. The cost of the direct hedge transaction may offset most, if not all, of the yield advantage offered by the foreign security, but a Fund would hope to benefit from an increase (if any) in value of the bond.
Proxy Hedge.     PIMCO might choose to use a proxy hedge, which may be less costly than a direct hedge. In this case, a Fund, having purchased a security, will sell a currency whose value is believed to be closely linked to the currency in which the security is denominated. Interest rates prevailing in the country whose currency was sold would be expected to be closer to those in the United States and lower than those of securities denominated in the currency of the original holding. This type of hedging entails greater risk than a direct hedge because it is dependent on a stable relationship between the two currencies paired as proxies and the relationships can be very unstable at times.

Costs of Hedging.     When a Fund purchases a foreign bond with a higher interest rate than is available on U.S. bonds of a similar maturity, the additional yield on the foreign bond could be substantially reduced or lost if the Fund were to enter into a direct hedge by selling the foreign currency and purchasing the U.S. dollar. This is what is known as the “cost” of hedging. Proxy hedging attempts to reduce this cost through an indirect hedge back to the U.S. dollar.
It is important to note that hedging costs are treated as capital transactions and are not, therefore, deducted from a Fund’s dividend distribution and are not reflected in its yield. Instead such costs will, over time, be reflected in a Fund’s net asset value per share.
The forecasting of currency market movement is extremely difficult, and whether any hedging strategy will be successful is highly uncertain. Moreover, it is impossible to forecast with precision the market value of portfolio securities at the expiration of a foreign currency forward contract. Accordingly, a Fund may be required to buy or sell additional currency on the spot market (and bear the expense of such transaction) if PIMCO’s predictions regarding the movement of foreign currency or securities markets prove inaccurate. Also, foreign currency transactions, like currency exchange rates, can be affected unpredictably by intervention (or the failure to intervene) by U.S. or foreign governments or central banks, or by currency controls or political developments. Such events may prevent or restrict a Fund’s ability to enter into foreign currency transactions, force the Fund to exit a foreign currency transaction at a disadvantageous time or price or result in penalties for the Fund, any of which may result in a loss to the Fund. In addition, the use of cross-hedging transactions may involve special risks, and may leave a Fund in a less advantageous position than if such a hedge had not been established. Because foreign currency forward contracts are privately negotiated transactions, there can be no assurance that a Fund will have the flexibility to roll-over a foreign currency forward contract upon its expiration if it desires to do so. Additionally, there can be no assurance that the other party to the contract will perform its services thereunder. Under definitions adopted by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (“CFTC”) and SEC, many non-deliverable foreign currency forwards are considered swaps for certain purposes, including the determination of whether such instruments need to be exchange-traded and centrally cleared as discussed further in “Risks of Potential Government Regulation of Derivatives.” These changes are expected to reduce counterparty risk as compared to bilaterally negotiated contracts.
Certain Funds may hold a portion of their assets in bank deposits denominated in foreign currencies, so as to facilitate investment in foreign securities as well as to protect against currency fluctuations and the need to convert such assets into U.S. dollars (thereby also reducing transaction costs). To the extent these monies are converted back into U.S. dollars, the value of the assets so maintained will be affected favorably or unfavorably by changes in foreign currency exchange rates and exchange control regulations.
Tax Consequences of Hedging.     Under applicable tax law, the Funds may be required to limit their gains from hedging in foreign currency forwards, futures, and options. Although the Funds are expected to comply with such limits, the extent to which these limits apply is subject to tax regulations as yet unissued. Hedging also may result in the application of the mark-to-market and straddle provisions of the Internal Revenue Code. Those provisions could result in an increase (or decrease) in the amount of taxable dividends paid by the Funds and could affect whether dividends paid by the Funds are classified as capital gains or ordinary income.
Foreign Currency Exchange-Related Securities
Foreign currency warrants.     Foreign currency warrants such as Currency Exchange Warrants TM (“CEWs TM ”) are warrants which entitle the holder to receive from their issuer an amount of cash (generally, for warrants issued in the United States, in U.S. dollars) which is calculated pursuant to a predetermined formula and based on the exchange rate between a specified foreign currency and the U.S. dollar as of the exercise date of the warrant. Foreign currency warrants generally are exercisable upon their issuance and expire as of a specified date and time. Foreign currency warrants have been issued in connection with U.S. dollar-denominated debt offerings by major corporate issuers in an attempt to reduce the foreign currency exchange risk which, from the point of view of prospective purchasers of the securities, is inherent in the international fixed-income marketplace. Foreign currency warrants may attempt to reduce the foreign exchange risk assumed by purchasers of a security by, for example, providing for a supplemental payment in the event that the U.S. dollar depreciates against the value of a major foreign currency such as the Japanese yen or the euro. The formula used to determine the amount payable upon exercise of a foreign currency warrant may make the warrant worthless unless the applicable foreign currency exchange rate moves in a particular direction ( e.g. , unless the U.S. dollar appreciates or depreciates against the particular foreign currency to which the warrant is linked or
56

indexed). Foreign currency warrants are severable from the debt obligations with which they may be offered, and may be listed on exchanges. Foreign currency warrants may be exercisable only in certain minimum amounts, and an investor wishing to exercise warrants who possesses less than the minimum number required for exercise may be required either to sell the warrants or to purchase additional warrants, thereby incurring additional transaction costs. In the case of any exercise of warrants, there may be a time delay between the time a holder of warrants gives instructions to exercise and the time the exchange rate relating to exercise is determined, during which time the exchange rate could change significantly, thereby affecting both the market and cash settlement values of the warrants being exercised. The expiration date of the warrants may be accelerated if the warrants should be delisted from an exchange or if their trading should be suspended permanently, which would result in the loss of any remaining “time value” of the warrants ( i.e. , the difference between the current market value and the exercise value of the warrants), and, in the case the warrants were “out-of-the-money,” in a total loss of the purchase price of the warrants. Warrants are generally unsecured obligations of their issuers and are not standardized foreign currency options issued by the Options Clearing Corporation (“OCC”). Unlike foreign currency options issued by OCC, the terms of foreign exchange warrants generally will not be amended in the event of governmental or regulatory actions affecting exchange rates or in the event of the imposition of other regulatory controls affecting the international currency markets. The initial public offering price of foreign currency warrants is generally considerably in excess of the price that a commercial user of foreign currencies might pay in the interbank market for a comparable option involving significantly larger amounts of foreign currencies. Foreign currency warrants are subject to significant foreign exchange risk, including risks arising from complex political or economic factors.
Principal exchange rate linked securities.     Principal exchange rate linked securities (“PERLs TM ”) are debt obligations the principal on which is payable at maturity in an amount that may vary based on the exchange rate between the U.S. dollar and a particular foreign currency at or about that time. The return on “standard” PERLs TM is enhanced if the foreign currency to which the security is linked appreciates against the U.S. dollar, and is adversely affected by increases in the foreign exchange value of the U.S. dollar; “reverse” PERLs TM are like the “standard” securities, except that their return is enhanced by increases in the value of the U.S. dollar and adversely impacted by increases in the value of foreign currency. Interest payments on the securities are generally made in U.S. dollars at rates that reflect the degree of foreign currency risk assumed or given up by the purchaser of the notes ( i.e. , at relatively higher interest rates if the purchaser has assumed some of the foreign exchange risk, or relatively lower interest rates if the issuer has assumed some of the foreign exchange risk, based on the expectations of the current market). PERLs TM may in limited cases be subject to acceleration of maturity (generally, not without the consent of the holders of the securities), which may have an adverse impact on the value of the principal payment to be made at maturity.
Performance indexed paper.     Performance indexed paper (“PIPs TM ”) is U.S. dollar-denominated commercial paper the yield of which is linked to certain foreign exchange rate movements. The yield to the investor on PIPs TM is established at maturity as a function of spot exchange rates between the U.S. dollar and a designated currency as of or about that time (generally, the index maturity two days prior to maturity). The yield to the investor will be within a range stipulated at the time of purchase of the obligation, generally with a guaranteed minimum rate of return that is below, and a potential maximum rate of return that is above, market yields on U.S. dollar-denominated commercial paper, with both the minimum and maximum rates of return on the investment corresponding to the minimum and maximum values of the spot exchange rate two business days prior to maturity.
Borrowing
Except as described below, the Fund may borrow money to the extent permitted under the 1940 Act, and as interpreted, modified or otherwise permitted by regulatory authority having jurisdiction, from time to time. This means that, in general, a Fund may borrow money from banks for any purpose in an amount up to 1/3 of a Fund’s total assets. A Fund also may borrow money for temporary administrative purposes in an amount not to exceed 5% of a Fund’s total assets.
Specifically, provisions of the 1940 Act require a Fund to maintain continuous asset coverage (that is, total assets including borrowings, less liabilities exclusive of borrowings) of 300% of the amount borrowed, with an exception for borrowings not in excess of 5% of a Fund’s total assets made for temporary administrative purposes. Any borrowings for temporary administrative purposes in excess of 5% of a Fund’s total assets must maintain continuous asset coverage. If the 300% asset coverage should decline as a result of market fluctuations or other reasons, a Fund may be
57

required to sell some of its portfolio holdings within three days to reduce the debt and restore the 300% asset coverage, even though it may be disadvantageous from an investment standpoint to sell securities at that time.
As noted below, a Fund also may enter into certain transactions, including reverse repurchase agreements, mortgage dollar rolls and sale-buybacks, that can be viewed as constituting a form of borrowing or financing transaction by the Fund. Borrowing will tend to exaggerate the effect on net asset value of any increase or decrease in the market value of a Fund’s portfolio. Money borrowed will be subject to interest costs which may or may not be recovered by appreciation of the securities purchased. A Fund also may be required to maintain minimum average balances in connection with such borrowing or to pay a commitment or other fee to maintain a line of credit; either of these requirements would increase the cost of borrowing over the stated interest rate. Each of the PIMCO Global Bond Opportunities Fund (U.S. Dollar-Hedged) and PIMCO Total Return Fund IV has adopted a non-fundamental investment restriction under which the respective Fund may not borrow in excess of 10% of the value of its total assets and then only from banks as a temporary measure to facilitate the meeting of redemption requests (not for leverage) or for extraordinary or emergency purposes. Non-fundamental investment restrictions may be changed without shareholder approval.
A Fund may enter into reverse repurchase agreements, mortgage dollar rolls, and economically similar transactions. A reverse repurchase agreement involves the sale of a portfolio-eligible security by a Fund to another party, such as a bank or broker-dealer, coupled with its agreement to repurchase the instrument at a specified time and price. Under a reverse repurchase agreement, a Fund continues to receive any principal and interest payments on the underlying security during the term of the agreement. The Fund typically will segregate or “earmark” assets determined to be liquid by PIMCO equal (on a daily mark-to-market basis) to its obligations under reverse repurchase agreements. However, reverse repurchase agreements involve the risk that the market value of securities retained by a Fund may decline below the repurchase price of the securities sold by a Fund which it is obligated to repurchase. With respect to reverse repurchase agreements in which banks are counterparties, the Funds may treat such transactions as bank borrowings, which would be subject to a Fund’s limitations on borrowings. Such treatment would, among other things, restrict the aggregate of such transactions (plus any other borrowings) to one-third of a Fund’s total assets (except the PIMCO Global Bond Opportunities Fund (U.S. Dollar-Hedged) and PIMCO Total Return Fund IV).
A “mortgage dollar roll” is similar to a reverse repurchase agreement in certain respects. In a “dollar roll” transaction a Fund sells a mortgage-related security, such as a security issued by GNMA, to a dealer and simultaneously agrees to repurchase a similar security (but not the same security) in the future at a pre-determined price. A “dollar roll” can be viewed, like a reverse repurchase agreement, as a collateralized borrowing in which a Fund pledges a mortgage-related security to a dealer to obtain cash. Unlike in the case of reverse repurchase agreements, the dealer with which a Fund enters into a dollar roll transaction is not obligated to return the same securities as those originally sold by a Fund, but only securities which are “substantially identical.” To be considered “substantially identical,” the securities returned to a Fund generally must: (1) be collateralized by the same types of underlying mortgages; (2) be issued by the same agency and be part of the same program; (3) have a similar original stated maturity; (4) have identical net coupon rates; (5) have similar market yields (and therefore price); and (6) satisfy “good delivery” requirements, meaning that the aggregate principal amounts of the securities delivered and received back must be within a specified percentage of the initial amount delivered.
In accordance with current federal securities laws, rules and staff positions, a Fund’s obligations under a dollar roll agreement must be covered by segregated or “earmarked” liquid assets (or cash equivalent securities in the case of the PIMCO Total Return Fund IV) equal in value to the securities subject to repurchase by a Fund. As with reverse repurchase agreements, to the extent that positions in dollar roll agreements are not covered by segregated or “earmarked” liquid assets at least equal to the amount of any forward purchase commitment, such transactions would be subject to the Funds’ restrictions on borrowings. Furthermore, because dollar roll transactions may be for terms ranging between one and six months, dollar roll transactions may be deemed “illiquid” and subject to a Fund’s overall limitations on investments in illiquid securities. Please refer to “Illiquid Investments” below for further discussion of regulatory considerations and constraints relating to investment liquidity.
A Fund also may effect simultaneous purchase and sale transactions that are known as “sale-buybacks.” A sale buyback is similar to a reverse repurchase agreement, except that in a sale-buyback, the counterparty that purchases the security is entitled to receive any principal or interest payments made on the underlying security pending settlement of a Fund’s repurchase of the underlying security. In accordance with current federal laws, rules and staff
58

positions, a Fund’s obligations under a sale-buyback typically would be offset by liquid assets equal in value to the amount of a Fund’s forward commitment to repurchase the subject security.
It is possible that changing government regulation may affect a Fund’s use of these strategies. Changes in regulatory requirements concerning margin for certain types of financing transactions, such as repurchase agreements, reverse repurchase agreements, and securities lending and borrowing, could impact a Fund’s ability to utilize these investment strategies and techniques.
Commodities
Each Fund may purchase or sell derivatives, securities or other instruments that provide exposure to commodities. A Fund’s investments in commodities-related instruments may subject the Fund to greater volatility than investments in traditional securities. The value of commodity-related instruments may be affected by changes in overall market movements, commodity index volatility, changes in interest rates, or factors affecting a particular industry or commodity, such as drought, floods, weather, livestock disease, embargoes, tariffs and international economic, political and regulatory developments. An unexpected surplus of a commodity caused by one of the aforementioned factors, for example, may cause a significant decrease in the value of the commodity (and a decrease in the value of any investments directly correlated to the commodity). Conversely, an unexpected shortage of a commodity caused by one of the aforementioned factors may cause a significant increase in the value of the commodity (and a decrease in the value of any investments inversely correlated to that commodity). The commodity markets are subject to temporary distortions and other disruptions due to, among other factors, lack of liquidity, the participation of speculators, and government regulation and other actions.
A Fund may focus its commodity-related investments in a particular sector of the commodities market (such as gold, oil, metal or agricultural products). As a result, to the extent a Fund focuses its investments in a particular sector of the commodities market, the Fund may be more susceptible to risks associated with those sectors, including the risk of loss due to adverse economic, business or political developments affecting a particular sector. See “Derivative Instruments” below for a more detailed discussion of risks related to commodities, including additional discussion of commodity-related derivative instruments.
Derivative Instruments
In pursuing their individual objectives, the Funds (except for the PIMCO Government Money Market Fund) may, to the extent permitted by their investment objectives and policies, purchase and sell (write) both put options and call options on securities, swap agreements, recovery locks, securities indexes, commodity indexes and foreign currencies, and enter into interest rate, foreign currency, index and commodity futures contracts and purchase and sell options on such futures contracts (“futures options”) for hedging purposes, to seek to replicate the composition and performance of a particular index, or as part of their overall investment strategies, except that those Funds that may not invest in foreign currency-denominated securities may not enter into transactions involving currency futures or options. The Funds (except for the PIMCO California Intermediate Municipal Bond, PIMCO California Municipal Bond, PIMCO California Short Duration Municipal Income, PIMCO High Yield Municipal Bond, PIMCO GNMA and Government Securities, PIMCO Government Money Market, PIMCO Long-Term U.S. Government, PIMCO Low Duration II, PIMCO Mortgage-Backed Securities, PIMCO Mortgage Opportunities and Bond, PIMCO Municipal Bond, PIMCO National Intermediate Municipal Bond, PIMCO New York Municipal Bond, PIMCO Short Duration Municipal Income, PIMCO Total Return II and PIMCO Total Return IV Funds) also may purchase and sell foreign currency options for purposes of increasing exposure to a foreign currency or to shift exposure to foreign currency fluctuations from one currency to another. A Fund (except for the PIMCO Government Money Market Fund) also may enter into swap agreements with respect to interest rates, commodities, and indexes of securities or commodities, and to the extent it may invest in foreign currency-denominated securities, may enter into swap agreements with respect to foreign currencies. The Funds may invest in structured notes. If other types of financial instruments, including other types of options, futures contracts, or futures options are traded in the future, a Fund also may use those instruments, provided that the Board of Trustees determines that their use is consistent with the Fund’s investment objective.
The value of some derivative instruments in which the Funds invest may be particularly sensitive to changes in prevailing interest rates, and, like the other investments of the Funds, the ability of a Fund to successfully utilize these instruments may depend in part upon the ability of PIMCO to forecast interest rates and other economic factors
59

correctly. If PIMCO incorrectly forecasts such factors and has taken positions in derivative instruments contrary to prevailing market trends, the Funds could be exposed to additional, unforeseen risks, including the risk of loss.
The Funds might not employ any of the strategies described herein, and no assurance can be given that any strategy used will succeed. If PIMCO incorrectly forecasts interest rates, market values or other economic factors in using a derivatives strategy for a Fund, the Fund might have been in a better position if it had not entered into the transaction at all. Also, suitable derivatives transactions may not be available in all circumstances. The use of these strategies involves certain special risks, including a possible imperfect correlation, or even no correlation, between price movements of derivative instruments and price movements of related investments. While some strategies involving derivative instruments can reduce the risk of loss, they can also reduce the opportunity for gain or even result in losses by offsetting favorable price movements in related investments or otherwise. This is due, in part, to the possible inability of a Fund to purchase or sell a portfolio security at a time that otherwise would be favorable, or the possible need to sell a portfolio security at a disadvantageous time because the Fund, in accordance with current federal securities laws, rules and staff positions, is required to maintain asset coverage or offsetting positions in connection with transactions in derivative instruments, and the possible inability of a Fund to close out or to liquidate its derivatives positions. In addition, a Fund’s use of such instruments may cause the Fund to realize higher amounts of short-term capital gains (generally taxed upon distribution at ordinary income tax rates) than if it had not used such instruments. For Funds that gain exposure to an asset class using derivative instruments backed by a collateral portfolio of Fixed Income Instruments, changes in the value of the Fixed Income Instruments may result in greater or lesser exposure to that asset class than would have resulted from a direct investment in securities comprising that asset class. The Funds may invest in derivatives to the extent permitted by the 1940 Act and rules and interpretations thereunder and other federal securities laws.
Participation in the markets for derivative instruments involves investment risks and transaction costs to which a Fund may not be subject absent the use of these strategies. The skills needed to successfully execute derivative strategies may be different from those needed for other types of transactions. If the Fund incorrectly forecasts the value and/or creditworthiness of securities, currencies, interest rates, counterparties or other economic factors involved in a derivative transaction, the Fund might have been in a better position if the Fund had not entered into such derivative transaction. In evaluating the risks and contractual obligations associated with particular derivative instruments, it is important to consider that certain derivative transactions may be modified or terminated only by mutual consent of the Fund and its counterparty and certain derivative transactions may be terminated by the counterparty or the Fund, as the case may be, upon the occurrence of certain Fund-related or counterparty-related events, which may result in losses or gains to the Fund based on the market value of the derivative transactions entered into between the Fund and the counterparty. In addition, such early terminations may result in taxable events and accelerate gain or loss recognition for tax purposes. It may not be possible for a Fund to modify, terminate, or offset the Fund’s obligations or the Fund’s exposure to the risks associated with a derivative transaction prior to its termination or maturity date, which may create a possibility of increased volatility and/or decreased liquidity to the Fund. Upon the expiration or termination of a particular contract, a Fund may wish to retain its position in the derivative instrument by entering into a similar contract, but may be unable to do so if the counterparty to the original contract is unwilling or unable to enter into the new contract and no other appropriate counterparty can be found, which could cause the Fund not to be able to maintain certain desired investment exposures or not to be able to hedge other investment positions or risks, which could cause losses to the Fund. Furthermore, after such an expiration or termination of a particular contract, a Fund may have fewer counterparties with which to engage in additional derivative transactions, which could lead to potentially greater counterparty risk exposure to one or more counterparties and which could increase the cost of entering into certain derivatives. In such cases, the Fund may lose money.
A Fund may engage in investment strategies, including the use of derivatives, to, among other things, generate current, distributable income, even if such strategies could potentially result in declines in the Fund’s net asset value. A Fund’s income and gain-generating strategies, including certain derivatives strategies, may generate current income and gains taxable as ordinary income sufficient to support distributions, even in situations when the Fund has experienced a decline in net assets due to, for example, adverse changes in the broad U.S. or non-U.S. securities markets or the Fund’s portfolio of investments, or arising from its use of derivatives. Consequently, Fund shareholders may receive distributions subject to tax at ordinary income rates at a time when their investment in the Fund has declined in value, which may be economically similar to a taxable return of capital.
The tax treatment of certain derivatives may be open to different interpretations. Any recharacterization of payments made or received by a Fund pursuant to derivatives potentially could affect the amount, timing or
60

characterization of Fund distributions. In addition, the tax treatment of such investment strategies may be changed by regulation or otherwise.
Options on Securities and Indexes. A A Fund may, to the extent specified herein or in the Prospectuses, purchase and sell both put and call options on equity, fixed income or other securities (including securities to be purchased in when-issued, delayed delivery and forward commitment transactions) or indexes in standardized contracts traded on foreign or domestic securities exchanges, boards of trade, or similar entities, or quoted on NASDAQ or on an OTC market, and agreements, sometimes called cash puts, which may accompany the purchase of a new issue of bonds from a dealer.
An option on a security (or index) is a contract that gives the holder of the option, in return for a premium, the right to buy from (in the case of a call) or sell to (in the case of a put) the writer of the option the security underlying the option (or the cash value of an option that is on an index or cash-settled) at a specified exercise price, often at any time during the term of the option for American options or only at expiration for European options. The writer of an option on a security that requires physical delivery has the obligation upon exercise of the option to deliver the underlying security upon payment of the exercise price (in the case of a call) or to pay the exercise price upon delivery of the underlying security (in the case of a put). Certain put options written by a Fund, which counterparties may use as a source of liquidity, may be structured to have an exercise price that is less than the market value of the underlying securities that would be received by the Fund. Upon exercise, the writer of an option on an index or cash settled option on a security is obligated to pay the difference between the cash value of the index or security and the exercise price multiplied by the specified multiplier for the option. (An index is designed to reflect features of a particular financial or securities market, a specific group of financial instruments or securities, or certain economic indicators.)
A Fund will “cover” its obligations when it writes call options or put options. In the case of a call option on a debt obligation or other security that requires physical delivery, the option is covered if the Fund owns the security underlying the call or has an absolute and immediate right to acquire that security without additional cash consideration (or, if additional cash consideration is required, cash or other assets determined to be liquid by PIMCO, in such amount are segregated by its custodian or “earmarked”) upon conversion or exchange of other securities held by a Fund. A call option or index on a security is also “covered” if a Fund does not hold the underlying security or have the right to acquire it, but the Fund segregates or “earmarks” assets determined to be liquid by PIMCO in an amount equal to the value of the underlying security (in the case of an option that requires physical delivery) or to the Fund’s net obligation (in the case of an option that requires cash settlement, including an option on an index and any option with respect to which the Fund has entered into a contractual arrangement with a third party broker-dealer or counterparty that requires cash settlement), minus any collateral deposited with a broker-dealer or other financial institution, on a mark-to-market basis (a so-called “naked” call option).
A call option is also covered if a Fund holds a call on the same index or security as the call written where the exercise price of the call held is (i) equal to or less than the exercise price of the call written, or (ii) greater than the exercise price of the call written, provided the difference is maintained by the Fund in segregated or “earmarked” liquid assets. A put option on a security or an index is covered if a Fund segregates or “earmarks” liquid assets equal to the exercise price. A put option is also covered if the Fund holds a put on the same security or index as the put written where the exercise price of the put held is (i) equal to or greater than the exercise price of the put written, or (ii) less than the exercise price of the put written, provided the difference is maintained by the Fund in segregated or “earmarked” liquid assets. Obligations under written call and put options so covered will not be construed to be “senior securities” for purposes of the Fund’s investment restrictions concerning senior securities and borrowings.
If an option written by a Fund expires unexercised, the Fund realizes a capital gain equal to the premium received at the time the option was written. If an option purchased by a Fund expires unexercised, the Fund realizes a capital loss equal to the premium paid. Prior to the earlier of exercise or expiration, an exchange-traded option may be closed out by an offsetting purchase or sale of an option of the same series (type, exchange, underlying security or index, exercise price, and expiration). There can be no assurance, however, that a closing purchase or sale transaction can be effected when the Fund desires.
A Fund may sell put or call options it has previously purchased, which could result in a net gain or loss depending on whether the amount realized on the sale is more or less than the premium and other transaction costs paid on the put or call option which is sold. Prior to exercise or expiration, an option may be closed out by an offsetting purchase or sale of an option of the same series. A Fund will realize a capital gain from a closing purchase transaction if the cost of
61

the closing option is less than the premium received from writing the option, or, if it is more, the Fund will realize a capital loss. If the premium received from a closing sale transaction is more than the premium paid to purchase the option, the Fund will realize a capital gain or, if it is less, the Fund will realize a capital loss. The principal factors affecting the market value of a put or a call option include supply and demand, interest rates, the current market price of the underlying security or index in relation to the exercise price of the option, the volatility of the underlying security or index, and the time remaining until the expiration date.
The premium paid for a put or call option purchased by a Fund is an asset of the Fund. The premium received for an option written by a Fund is recorded as a deferred credit. The value of an option purchased or written is marked-to-market daily and is valued at the closing price on the exchange on which it is traded or, if not traded on an exchange or no closing price is available, at the mean between the last bid and ask prices.
The Funds may write covered straddles consisting of a combination of a call and a put written on the same underlying security. A straddle will be covered when sufficient liquid assets are deposited to meet the Funds’ immediate obligations. The Funds may use the same liquid assets to cover both the call and put options where the exercise price of the call and put are the same, or where the exercise price of the call is higher than that of the put. In such cases, the Funds will also segregate or “earmark” liquid assets equivalent to the amount, if any, by which the put is “in the money.”
Risks Associated with Options on Securities and Indexes. There are several risks associated with transactions in options on securities and on indexes. For example, there are significant differences between the securities and options markets that could result in an imperfect correlation between these markets, causing a given transaction not to achieve its objectives. A decision as to whether, when and how to use options involves the exercise of skill and judgment, and even a well-conceived transaction may be unsuccessful to some degree because of market behavior or unexpected events.
The writer of an American option often has no control over the time when it may be required to fulfill its obligation as a writer of the option. Once an option writer has received an exercise notice, it cannot effect a closing purchase transaction in order to terminate its obligation under the option and must deliver the underlying security at the exercise price. To the extent a Fund writes a put option, the Fund has assumed the obligation during the option period to purchase the underlying investment from the put buyer at the option’s exercise price if the put buyer exercises its option, regardless of whether the value of the underlying investment falls below the exercise price. This means that a Fund that writes a put option may be required to take delivery of the underlying investment and make payment for such investment at the exercise price. This may result in losses to the Fund and may result in the Fund holding the underlying investment for some period of time when it is disadvantageous to do so.
If a put or call option purchased by the Fund is not sold when it has remaining value, and if the market price of the underlying security remains equal to or greater than the exercise price (in the case of a put), or remains less than or equal to the exercise price (in the case of a call), the Fund will lose its entire investment in the option. Also, where a put or call option on a particular security is purchased to hedge against price movements in a related security, the price of the put or call option may move more or less than the price of the related security.
There can be no assurance that a liquid market will exist when a Fund seeks to close out an option position. If a Fund were unable to close out an option that it had purchased on a security, it would have to exercise the option in order to realize any profit or the option may expire worthless.
If trading were suspended in an option purchased by a Fund, the Fund would not be able to close out the option. If restrictions on exercise were imposed, the Fund might be unable to exercise an option it has purchased. Except to the extent that a call option on an index written by the Fund is covered by an option on the same index purchased by the Fund, movements in the index may result in a loss to the Fund; however, such losses may be mitigated by changes in the value of the Fund’s securities during the period the option was outstanding.
To the extent that a Fund writes a call option on a security it holds in its portfolio and intends to use such security as the sole means of “covering” its obligation under the call option, the Fund has, in return for the premium on the option, given up the opportunity to profit from a price increase in the underlying security above the exercise price during the option period, but, as long as its obligation under such call option continues, has retained the risk of loss
62

should the price of the underlying security decline. Under current regulatory requirements, if a Fund were unable to close out such a call option, the Fund would not be able to sell the underlying security unless the option expired without exercise.
Foreign Currency Options. Funds that invest in foreign currency-denominated securities may buy or sell put and call options on foreign currencies. These Funds may buy or sell put and call options on foreign currencies either on exchanges or in the OTC market. A put option on a foreign currency gives the purchaser of the option the right to sell a foreign currency at the exercise price until the option expires. A call option on a foreign currency gives the purchaser of the option the right to purchase the currency at the exercise price until the option expires. Currency options traded on U.S. or other exchanges may be subject to position limits which may limit the ability of a Fund to reduce foreign currency risk using such options. OTC options differ from exchange-traded options in that they are bilateral contracts with price and other terms negotiated between buyer and seller, and generally do not have as much market liquidity as exchange-traded options. Under definitions adopted by the CFTC and SEC, many foreign currency options are considered swaps for certain purposes, including determination of whether such instruments need to be exchange-traded and centrally cleared as discussed further in “Risks of Potential Government Regulation of Derivatives.”
Futures Contracts and Options on Futures Contracts. A futures contract is an agreement to buy or sell a security or other asset for a set price on a future date. These contracts are traded on exchanges, so that, in most cases, a party can close out its position on the exchange for cash, without delivering the underlying security or other underlying asset. An option on a futures contract gives the holder of the option the right to buy or sell a position in a futures contract from or to the writer of the option, at a specified price and on or before a specified expiration date.
Each Fund (except for the PIMCO Government Money Market Fund) may invest in futures contracts and options thereon (“futures options”) with respect to, but not limited to, interest rates, commodities, and security or commodity indexes. To the extent that a Fund may invest in foreign currency-denominated securities, it also may invest in foreign currency futures contracts and options thereon.
An interest rate, commodity, foreign currency or index futures contract provides for the future sale or purchase of a specified quantity of a financial instrument, commodity, foreign currency or the cash value of an index at a specified price and time. A futures contract on an index is an agreement pursuant to which a party agrees to pay or receive an amount of cash equal to the difference between the value of the index at the close of the last trading day of the contract and the price at which the index contract was originally written. Although the value of an index might be a function of the value of certain specified securities, no physical delivery of these securities is made. A public market exists in futures contracts covering a number of indexes as well as financial instruments and foreign currencies, including , but not limited to: the S&P 500; the S&P Midcap 400; the Nikkei 225; the Markit CDX credit index; the iTraxx credit index; U.S. Treasury bonds; U.S. Treasury notes; U.S. Treasury bills; 90-day commercial paper; bank certificates of deposit; Eurodollar certificates of deposit; the Australian dollar; the Canadian dollar; the British pound; the Japanese yen; the Swiss franc; the Mexican peso; and certain multinational currencies, such as the euro. It is expected that other futures contracts will be developed and traded in the future. Certain futures contracts on indexes, financial instruments or foreign currencies may represent new investment products that lack performance track records. Certain of the Funds also may invest in commodity futures contracts and options thereon. A commodity futures contract is an agreement to buy or sell a commodity, such as an energy, agricultural or metal commodity at a later date at a price and quantity agreed-upon when the contract is bought or sold.
A Fund may purchase and write call and put futures options, as specified for that Fund in the Prospectuses. Futures options possess many of the same characteristics as options on securities and indexes (discussed above). A futures option gives the holder the right, in return for the premium paid, to assume a long position (call) or short position (put) in a futures contract at a specified exercise price at any time during the period of the option. Upon exercise of a call option, the holder acquires a long position in the futures contract and the writer is assigned the opposite short position. In the case of a put option, the opposite is true. A call option is “in the money” if the value of the futures contract that is the subject of the option exceeds the exercise price. A put option is “in the money” if the exercise price exceeds the value of the futures contract that is the subject of the option.
Commodity Pool Operators and Commodity Trading Advisors. PIMCO is registered with the CFTC as a commodity pool operator (“CPO”). However, PIMCO, with respect to certain Funds, has filed a notice of eligibility with the National Futures Association to claim an exclusion from the definition of the term CPO under the Commodity
63

Exchange Act, as amended (“CEA”), and, therefore, PIMCO is not subject to registration or regulation as a CPO under the CEA and the rules thereunder. Additionally, certain Funds operating as funds-of-funds have claimed a temporary exemption from the definition of CPO under the CEA and, therefore, are not currently subject to registration or regulation as commodity pools under the CEA. PIMCO is not currently deemed to be a CPO with respect to its service as investment adviser to these funds-of-funds. To remain eligible for the exclusion, each of the Funds will have to adhere to the CFTC’s regulations that subject registered investment companies and their investment advisers to regulation by the CFTC if the registered investment company invests more than a prescribed level of its liquidation value in futures, options on futures, most swaps, or other financial instruments regulated under the CEA, and the rules thereunder (“commodity interests”), or if the Fund markets itself as providing investment exposure to such instruments. These limitations may restrict a Fund’s ability to pursue its investment strategy, increase the costs of implementing its strategy, increase expenses of the Fund, and/or adversely affect the Fund’s total return. In the event that a Fund’s investments in commodity interests are not within the thresholds set forth in the exclusion, PIMCO may be required to register as a CPO and/or “commodity trading advisor” with the CFTC with respect to that Fund. In this case, such Fund’s expenses may increase, adversely affecting that Fund’s total return. Additionally, under CFTC rules, certain mandated disclosure, reporting and recordkeeping obligations will apply to the Adviser with respect to the Funds.
To the extent any Funds are, or become, ineligible to claim an exclusion from CFTC regulation, these Funds may consider steps in order to continue to qualify for exemption from CFTC regulation, or may determine to operate subject to CFTC regulation. The table below identifies which Funds and Subsidiaries are subject to CFTC regulation, as of July 30, 2022, unless otherwise noted:

PIMCO TRENDS Managed Futures Strategy Fund and its Subsidiary
Bitcoin Cash Settled Futures. PIMCO TRENDS Managed Futures Strategy Fund may invest in cash settled futures based on bitcoin that are traded on futures exchanges registered with the CFTC. To the extent the Fund invests in bitcoin futures, it generally expects to do so through its Subsidiary. Investments in bitcoin futures provides exposure to bitcoin.
Cryptocurrencies (also referred to as “virtual currencies” and “digital currencies”) are digital assets designed to act as a medium of exchange. Although cryptocurrency is an emerging asset class, there are thousands of cryptocurrencies, the most well-known of which is bitcoin. Bitcoin is a digital asset whose ownership and behavior are determined by participants in an online, peer-to-peer network that connects computers that run publicly accessible, or “open source,” software that follows the rules and procedures governing the bitcoin network (commonly referred to as the bitcoin protocol). The value of bitcoin, like the value of other cryptocurrencies, is not backed by any government, corporation, or other identified body. Cryptocurrency is a new technological innovation with a limited history; it is a highly speculative asset and future regulatory actions or policies may limit, perhaps to a materially adverse extent, the value of any Fund exposure to bitcoin through its investment in bitcoin futures.
Cryptocurrency facilitates decentralized, peer-to-peer financial exchange and value storage that is used like money, without the oversight of a central authority or banks. Similar to fiat currencies (i.e., a currency that is backed by a central bank or a national, supra-national or quasi-national organization), cryptocurrencies are susceptible to theft, loss and destruction.
Factors affecting the further development of cryptocurrency include, but are not limited to: continued worldwide growth or possible cessation or reversal in the adoption and use of cryptocurrency and other digital assets; government and quasi-government regulation or restrictions on or regulation of access to and operation of digital asset networks; changes in consumer demographics and public preferences; maintenance and development of open-source software protocol; availability and popularity of other forms or methods of buying and selling goods and services; the use of the networks supporting digital assets, such as those for developing smart contracts and distributed applications; general economic conditions and the regulatory environment relating to digital assets; negative consumer or public perception; and general risks tied to the use of information technologies, including cyber risks. A breach or failure of one cryptocurrency may lead to a loss in confidence in, and thus decreased usage and or value of, other cryptocurrencies.
In addition to the risks of investment in bitcoin discussed below, futures contracts based on bitcoin are also subject to the risks otherwise applicable to derivatives, in particular those discussed in “Risks Associated with Futures and Futures Options.”
The value of the Fund’s investment exposure to bitcoin is subject to fluctuations in the value of bitcoin, which has been and may in the future be highly volatile, and could result in losses to the Fund. The value of bitcoin is determined by the supply and demand for bitcoin in the global market for the trading of bitcoin, which consists primarily of transactions on electronic exchanges. The price of bitcoin could drop precipitously (including to zero) for a variety of reasons, including, but not limited to, regulatory changes, a crisis of confidence, flaw or operational issue in the bitcoin network or a change in user preference to competing cryptocurrencies.
Regulatory changes or actions may alter the nature of an investment in bitcoin futures or restrict the use of bitcoin or the operations of the bitcoin network or exchanges on which bitcoin trades in a manner that adversely affects the
65

price of bitcoin futures, which could adversely impact the Fund and necessitate the payment of large daily variation margin payments to settle the Fund’s losses.
The Fund’s investment in bitcoin futures may involve illiquidity risk, as bitcoin futures are not as heavily traded as other futures given that the bitcoin futures market is relatively new. In addition, exchanges on which bitcoin futures are traded and their related clearinghouses and the Fund’s FCMs generally require the Fund to maintain relatively high levels of initial margin at the clearinghouse and FCM in connection with bitcoin futures. Initial margin requirements will increase if the Fund’s bitcoin futures investments increase in value.
Exchanges on which bitcoin is traded (which are the source of the price(s) used to determine the cash settlement amount for the Fund’s bitcoin futures) have experienced, and may in the future experience, technical and operational issues, making bitcoin prices unavailable at times. In addition, the cash market in bitcoin has been the target of fraud and manipulation, which could affect the pricing of bitcoin futures contracts.
In addition, bitcoin and bitcoin futures have generally exhibited significant price volatility relative to traditional asset classes. Bitcoin futures may also experience significant price volatility as a result of the market fraud and manipulation noted above.
Cryptocurrencies, such as bitcoin, trade on exchanges, which are largely unregulated and, therefore, are more exposed to fraud and failure than established, regulated exchanges for securities, derivatives and other currencies, such as the CFTC-registered exchange(s) on which cash settled bitcoin futures trade. Cryptocurrency exchanges have in the past, and may in the future, cease operating temporarily or even permanently, resulting in the potential loss of users’ cryptocurrency or other market disruptions. Cryptocurrency exchanges are more exposed to the risk of market manipulation than exchanges for traditional assets. Cryptocurrency exchanges that are regulated typically must comply with minimum net capital, cybersecurity, and anti-money laundering requirements, but are not typically required to protect customers or their markets to the same extent that regulated securities exchanges or futures exchanges are required to do so. Furthermore, many cryptocurrency exchanges lack certain safeguards established by traditional exchanges to enhance the stability of trading on the exchange, such as measures designed to prevent sudden drops in value of items traded on the exchange (i.e., “flash crashes”). As a result, the prices of cryptocurrencies on exchanges may be subject to larger and more frequent sudden declines than assets traded on traditional exchanges. In addition, cryptocurrency exchanges are also subject to the risk of cybersecurity threats and have been breached, resulting in the theft and/or loss of bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. A cyber or other security breach or a business failure of a cryptocurrency exchange or custodian may affect the price of a particular cryptocurrency or cryptocurrencies generally, which may also affect the price of bitcoin futures in which the Fund may invest. A risk also exists with respect to malicious actors or previously unknown vulnerabilities, which may adversely affect the value of bitcoin.
Currently, there is relatively limited use of cryptocurrency in the retail and commercial marketplace, which contributes to price volatility. A lack of expansion by cryptocurrencies into retail and commercial markets, or a contraction of such use, may result in increased volatility or a reduction in the value of cryptocurrencies, either of which could adversely impact the Fund’s investment in bitcoin futures. In addition, to the extent market participants develop a preference for one cryptocurrency over another, the value of the less preferred cryptocurrency, and any futures contracts thereon, would likely be adversely affected.
Many significant aspects of the tax treatment of investments in cryptocurrency are uncertain, and investment in bitcoin futures would produce income that if directly earned by a regulated investment company, like the Fund,would likely be treated as non-qualifying income for purposes of the income test applicable to regulated investment companies. Accordingly, the Fund generally expects to invest in bitcoin futures through its Subsidiary, which is designed to produce qualifying income for purposes of the foregoing income test.
It is unclear what guidance on the treatment of digital assets for U.S. federal, state and local income tax purposes may be issued in the future. Because of the evolving nature of digital assets, it is not possible to predict potential future developments that may arise with respect to digital assets. Any future guidance on the treatment of digital assets for federal, state or local tax purposes could result in adverse tax consequences for investors in the Fund and could have an adverse effect on the value of bitcoin.
Limitations on Use of Futures and Futures Options. When a purchase or sale of a futures contract is made by such Fund, the Fund is required to deposit with its custodian (or broker, if legally permitted) a specified amount of
66

assets determined to be liquid by PIMCO (“initial margin”). The margin required for a futures contract is set by the exchange on which the contract is traded and may be modified during the term of the contract. Margin requirements on foreign exchanges may be different than U.S. exchanges. The initial margin is in the nature of a performance bond or good faith deposit on the futures contract which is returned to the Fund upon termination of the contract, assuming all contractual obligations have been satisfied. Each Fund expects to earn interest income on its initial margin deposits. A futures contract held by a Fund is valued daily at the official settlement price of the exchange on which it is traded. Each day a Fund pays or receives cash, called “variation margin,” equal to the daily change in value of the futures contract. This process is known as “marking-to-market.” Variation margin does not represent a borrowing or loan by a Fund but is instead a settlement between the Fund and the broker of the amount one would owe the other if the futures contract expired. In computing daily net asset value, each Fund will mark-to-market its open futures positions.
A Fund is also required to deposit and maintain margin with respect to put and call options on futures contracts written by it. Such margin deposits will vary depending on the nature of the underlying futures contract (and the related initial margin requirements), the current market value of the option, and other futures positions held by the Fund. Customer account agreements and related addenda govern cleared derivatives transactions such as futures, options on futures, and cleared OTC derivatives. Such transactions require posting of initial margin as determined by each relevant clearing agency which is segregated in an account at a futures commission merchant (“FCM”) registered with the CFTC. In the United States, counterparty risk may be reduced as creditors of an FCM cannot have a claim to Fund assets in the segregated account. Portability of exposure reduces risk to the Fund. Variation margin, or changes in market value, are generally exchanged daily, but may not be netted between futures and cleared OTC derivatives unless the parties have agreed to a separate arrangement in respect of portfolio margining.
Although some futures contracts call for making or taking delivery of the underlying securities or commodities, generally these obligations are closed out prior to delivery by offsetting purchases or sales of matching futures contracts (same exchange, underlying security or index, and delivery month). Closing out a futures contract sale is effected by purchasing an offsetting futures contract for the same aggregate amount of the specific type of financial instrument or commodity with the same delivery date. If an offsetting purchase price is less than the original sale price, a Fund realizes a capital gain, or if it is more, a Fund realizes a capital loss. Conversely, if an offsetting sale price is more than the original purchase price, a Fund realizes a capital gain, or if it is less, a Fund realizes a capital loss. The transaction costs must also be included in these calculations.
When purchasing a futures contract that cash settles, a Fund will maintain with its custodian (and mark-to-market on a daily basis) assets determined to be liquid by PIMCO that, when added to the amounts deposited with a FCM as margin, are equal to the daily marked-to-market net obligation (if any) of the futures contract. Alternatively, a Fund may “cover” its position by purchasing a put option on the same futures contract with a strike price as high or higher than the price of the contract held by the Fund.
In accordance with current federal securities laws, rules and staff positions, when selling a futures contract that cash settles, a Fund will maintain with its custodian (and mark-to-market on a daily basis) assets determined to be liquid by PIMCO that are equal to the daily marked-to-market net obligation (if any) of the Fund under the futures contract. Alternatively, a Fund may “cover” its position by owning the instruments underlying the futures contract (or, in the case of an index futures contract, a portfolio with a volatility substantially similar to that of the index on which the futures contract is based), or by holding a call option permitting the Fund to purchase the same futures contract at a price no higher than the price of the contract written by the Fund (or at a higher price if the difference is maintained in liquid assets with the Trust’s custodian).
With respect to futures contracts that “physically settle,” a Fund may cover the open position by setting aside or “earmarking” liquid assets in an amount equal to the full notional value of the futures contract. By setting aside or “earmarking” assets equal to only its net obligation under cash-settled futures, a Fund will have the ability to utilize these contracts to a greater extent than if the Fund were required to segregate or “earmark” assets equal to the full notional value of the futures contract. Futures contracts that are not required to “cash settle” may be treated as such for asset segregation or “earmarking” purposes when a Fund has entered into a contractual arrangement with a third party FCM to require the trade to be closed out or cash settled prior to or in lieu of physical settlement.
When selling a call option on a futures contract, a Fund will maintain with its custodian (and mark-to-market on a daily basis) assets determined to be liquid by PIMCO that, when added to the amounts deposited with a FCM as margin, equal the total market value of the futures contract underlying the call option. Alternatively, the Fund may
67

cover its position by entering into a long position in the same futures contract at a price no higher than the strike price of the call option, by owning the instruments underlying the futures contract, or by holding a separate call option permitting the Fund to purchase the same futures contract at a price not higher than the strike price of the call option sold by the Fund.
When selling a put option on a futures contract, a Fund will maintain with its custodian (and mark-to-market on a daily basis) assets determined to be liquid by PIMCO that equal the purchase price of the futures contract, less any margin on deposit. Alternatively, the Fund may cover the position either by entering into a short position in the same futures contract, or by owning a separate put option permitting it to sell the same futures contract so long as the strike price of the purchased put option is the same or higher than the strike price of the put option sold by the Fund.
To the extent that securities with maturities greater than one year are used to segregate or “earmark” liquid assets to cover a Fund’s obligations under futures contracts and related options, such use will not eliminate the risk of a form of leverage, which may tend to exaggerate the effect on net asset value of any increase or decrease in the market value of a Fund’s portfolio, and may require liquidation of portfolio positions when it is not advantageous to do so. However, any potential risk of leverage resulting from the use of securities with maturities greater than one year may be mitigated by limiting the overall duration of the Fund’s portfolio securities. Thus, the use of a longer-term security may require a Fund to hold offsetting short-term securities to balance the Fund’s portfolio such that the Fund’s duration does not exceed the maximum permitted for the Fund in the Prospectuses.
The requirements for qualification as a regulated investment company also may limit the extent to which a Fund may enter into futures, futures options and forward contracts. See “Taxation.”
Risks Associated with Futures and Futures Options. There are several risks associated with the use of futures contracts and futures options as hedging techniques. A purchase or sale of a futures contract may result in losses in excess of the amount invested in the futures contract. There can be no guarantee that there will be a correlation between price movements in the hedging vehicle and in the Fund securities being hedged. In addition, there are significant differences between the securities and futures markets that could result in an imperfect correlation between the markets, causing a given hedge not to achieve its objectives. The degree of imperfection of correlation depends on circumstances such as variations in speculative market demand for futures and futures options on securities, including technical influences in futures trading and futures options, and differences between the financial instruments being hedged and the instruments underlying the standard contracts available for trading in such respects as interest rate levels, maturities, and creditworthiness of issuers. A decision as to whether, when and how to hedge involves the exercise of skill and judgment, and even a well-conceived hedge may be unsuccessful to some degree because of market behavior or unexpected interest rate trends.
Futures contracts on U.S. Government securities historically have reacted to an increase or decrease in interest rates in a manner similar to that in which the underlying U.S. Government securities reacted. To the extent, however, that a Fund enters into such futures contracts, the value of such futures will not vary in direct proportion to the value of such Fund’s holdings of U.S. Government securities. Thus, the anticipated spread between the price of the futures contract and the hedged security may be distorted due to differences in the nature of the markets. The spread also may be distorted by differences in initial and variation margin requirements, the liquidity of such markets and the participation of speculators in such markets.
Futures exchanges may limit the amount of fluctuation permitted in certain futures contract prices during a single trading day. The daily limit establishes the maximum amount that the price of a futures contract may vary either up or down from the previous day’s settlement price at the end of the current trading session. Once the daily limit has been reached in a futures contract subject to the limit, no more trades may be made on that day at a price beyond that limit. The daily limit governs only price movements during a particular trading day and therefore does not limit potential losses because the limit may work to prevent the liquidation of unfavorable positions. For example, futures prices have occasionally moved to the daily limit for several consecutive trading days with little or no trading, thereby preventing prompt liquidation of positions and subjecting some holders of futures contracts to substantial losses.
There can be no assurance that a liquid market will exist at a time when a Fund seeks to close out a futures or a futures option position, and that Fund would remain obligated to meet margin requirements until the position is closed. In addition, many of the contracts discussed above are relatively new instruments without a significant trading history. As a result, there can be no assurance that an active secondary market will develop or continue to exist.
68

Risks Associated with Commodity Futures Contracts. There are several additional risks associated with transactions in commodity futures contracts, including but not limited to:
Storage. Unlike the financial futures markets, in the commodity futures markets there are costs of physical storage associated with purchasing the underlying commodity. The price of the commodity futures contract will reflect the storage costs of purchasing the physical commodity, including the time value of money invested in the physical commodity. To the extent that the storage costs for an underlying commodity change while a Fund is invested in futures contracts on that commodity, the value of the futures contract may change proportionately.
Reinvestment. In the commodity futures markets, producers of the underlying commodity may decide to hedge the price risk of selling the commodity by selling futures contracts today to lock in the price of the commodity at delivery tomorrow. In order to induce speculators to purchase the other side of the same futures contract, the commodity producer generally must sell the futures contract at a lower price than the expected future spot price. Conversely, if most hedgers in the futures market are purchasing futures contracts to hedge against a rise in prices, then speculators will only sell the other side of the futures contract at a higher futures price than the expected future spot price of the commodity. The changing nature of the hedgers and speculators in the commodity markets will influence whether futures prices are above or below the expected future spot price, which can have significant implications for a Fund. If the nature of hedgers and speculators in futures markets has shifted when it is time for a Fund to reinvest the proceeds of a maturing contract in a new futures contract, the Fund might reinvest at higher or lower futures prices, or choose to pursue other investments.
Other Economic Factors. The commodities which underlie commodity futures contracts may be subject to additional economic and non-economic variables, such as drought, floods, weather, livestock disease, embargoes, tariffs, and international economic, political and regulatory developments. These factors may have a larger impact on commodity prices and commodity-linked instruments, including futures contracts, than on traditional securities. Certain commodities are also subject to limited pricing flexibility because of supply and demand factors. Others are subject to broad price fluctuations as a result of the volatility of the prices for certain raw materials and the instability of supplies of other materials. These additional variables may create additional investment risks which subject a Fund’s investments to greater volatility than investments in traditional securities.
Additional Risks of Options on Securities, Futures Contracts, Options on Futures Contracts, and Forward Currency Exchange Contracts and Options Thereon. Options on securities, futures contracts, options on futures contracts, forward currency exchange contracts and options on forward currency exchange contracts may be traded on foreign (non-U.S.) exchanges. Such transactions may not be regulated as effectively as similar transactions in the United States, may not involve a clearing mechanism and related guarantees, and are subject to the risk of governmental actions affecting trading in, or the prices of, foreign (non-U.S.) securities. The value of such positions also could be adversely affected by: (i) other complex foreign (non-U.S.) political, legal and economic factors; (ii) lesser availability than in the United States of data on which to make trading decisions; (iii) delays in a Fund’s ability to act upon economic events occurring in foreign (non-U.S.) markets during non-business hours in the United States; (iv) the imposition of different exercise and settlement terms and procedures and margin requirements than in the United States; and (v) lesser trading volume.
Swap Agreements and Options on Swap Agreements. Each Fund (except for the PIMCO Government Money Market Fund) may engage in swap transactions, including, but not limited to, swap agreements on interest rates, security or commodity indexes, specific securities and commodities, and credit and event-linked swaps. To the extent a Fund may invest in foreign (non-U.S.) currency-denominated securities, it also may invest in currency exchange rate swap agreements. A Fund also may enter into options on swap agreements (“swaptions”).
A Fund may enter into swap transactions for any legal purpose consistent with its investment objectives and policies, such as attempting to obtain or preserve a particular return or spread at a lower cost than obtaining a return or spread through purchases and/or sales of instruments in other markets, to protect against currency fluctuations, as a duration management technique, to protect against any increase in the price of securities a Fund anticipates purchasing at a later date, or to gain exposure to certain markets in a more cost efficient manner.
69

OTC swap agreements are bilateral contracts entered into primarily by institutional investors for periods ranging from a few weeks to more than one year. In a standard OTC swap transaction, two parties agree to exchange the returns (or differentials in rates of return) earned or realized on particular predetermined investments or instruments. The gross returns to be exchanged or “swapped” between the parties are generally calculated with respect to a “notional amount,” i.e. , the return on or change in value of a particular dollar amount invested at a particular interest rate, in a particular foreign (non-U.S.) currency, or in a “basket” of securities or commodities representing a particular index. A “quanto” or “differential” swap combines both an interest rate and a currency transaction. Certain swap agreements, such as interest rate swaps, are traded on exchanges and cleared through central clearing counterparties. Other forms of swap agreements include interest rate caps, under which, in return for a premium, one party agrees to make payments to the other to the extent that interest rates exceed a specified rate, or “cap”; interest rate floors, under which, in return for a premium, one party agrees to make payments to the other to the extent that interest rates fall below a specified rate, or “floor”; and interest rate collars, under which a party sells a cap and purchases a floor or vice versa in an attempt to protect itself against interest rate movements exceeding given minimum or maximum levels. A total return swap agreement is a contract in which one party agrees to make periodic payments to another party based on the change in market value of underlying assets, which may include a single stock, a basket of stocks, or a stock index during the specified period, in return for periodic payments based on a fixed or variable interest rate or the total return from other underlying assets. Consistent with a Fund’s investment objectives and general investment policies, certain of the Funds may invest in commodity swap agreements. For example, an investment in a commodity swap agreement may involve the exchange of floating-rate interest payments for the total return on a commodity index. In a total return commodity swap, a Fund will receive the price appreciation of a commodity index, a portion of the index, or a single commodity in exchange for paying an agreed-upon fee. If the commodity swap is for one period, a Fund may pay a fixed fee, established at the outset of the swap. However, if the term of the commodity swap is more than one period, with interim swap payments, a Fund may pay an adjustable or floating fee. With a “floating” rate, the fee may be pegged to a base rate, such as the London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”), and is adjusted each period. Therefore, if interest rates increase over the term of the swap contract, a Fund may be required to pay a higher fee at each swap reset date.
Each Fund (except for the PIMCO Government Money Market Fund) also may enter into combinations of swap agreements in order to achieve certain economic results. For example, a Fund may enter into two swap transactions, one of which offsets the other for a period of time. After the offsetting swap transaction expires, the Fund would be left with the economic exposure provided by the remaining swap transaction. The intent of such an arrangement would be to lock in certain terms of the remaining swap transaction that a Fund may wish to gain exposure to in the future without having that exposure during the period the offsetting swap is in place.
A Fund also may enter into swaptions. A swaption is a contract that gives a counterparty the right (but not the obligation) in return for payment of a premium, to enter into a new swap agreement or to shorten, extend, cancel or otherwise modify an existing swap agreement, at some designated future time on specified terms. Each Fund (except for the PIMCO Government Money Market Fund) may write (sell) and purchase put and call swaptions.
Depending on the terms of the particular option agreement, a Fund will generally incur a greater degree of risk when it writes a swaption than it will incur when it purchases a swaption. When a Fund purchases a swaption, it risks losing only the amount of the premium it has paid should it decide to let the option expire unexercised. However, when a Fund writes a swaption, upon exercise of the option the Fund will become obligated according to the terms of the underlying agreement.
A Fund also may enter into forward volatility agreements, also known as volatility swaps. In a volatility swap, the counterparties agree to make payments in connection with changes in the volatility ( i.e. , the magnitude of change over a specified period of time) of an underlying reference instrument, such as a currency, rate, index, security or other financial instrument. Volatility swaps permit the parties to attempt to hedge volatility risk and/or take positions on the projected future volatility of an underlying reference instrument. For example, a Fund may enter into a volatility swap in order to take the position that the reference instrument’s volatility will increase over a particular period of time. If the reference instrument’s volatility does increase over the specified time, the Fund will receive a payment from its counterparty based upon the amount by which the reference instrument’s realized volatility level exceeds a volatility level agreed upon by the parties. If the reference instrument’s volatility does not increase over the specified time, the Fund will make a payment to the counterparty based upon the amount by which the reference instrument’s realized volatility level falls below the volatility level agreed upon by the parties. Payments on a volatility swap will be greater if they are based upon the mathematical square of volatility ( i.e. , the measured volatility multiplied by itself, which is
70

referred to as “variance”). This type of a volatility swap is frequently referred to as a variance swap. Certain of the Funds may engage in variance swaps.
Most types of swap agreements entered into by the Funds will calculate the obligations of the parties to the agreement on a “net basis.” Consequently, a Fund’s current obligations (or rights) under a swap agreement will generally be equal only to the net amount to be paid or received under the agreement based on the relative values of the positions held by each party to the agreement (the “net amount”). A Fund’s current obligations under a swap agreement will be accrued daily (offset against any amounts owed to the Fund) and any accrued but unpaid net amounts owed to a swap counterparty will be covered by the segregation or “earmarking” of assets determined to be liquid by PIMCO. Under current regulatory guidance, obligations under swap agreements so covered will not be construed to be “senior securities” for purposes of a Fund’s investment restriction concerning senior securities.
A Fund also may enter into OTC and cleared credit default swap agreements. A credit default swap agreement may reference one or more debt securities or obligations that are not currently held by the Fund. The protection “buyer” in an OTC credit default swap contract is generally obligated to pay the protection “seller” an upfront or a periodic stream of payments over the term of the contract until a credit event, such as a default, on a reference obligation has occurred. If a credit event occurs, the seller generally must pay the buyer the “par value” (full notional value) of the swap in exchange for an equal face amount of deliverable obligations of the reference entity described in the swap, or the seller may be required to deliver the related net cash amount if the swap is cash settled. A Fund may be either the buyer or seller in the transaction. If the Fund is a buyer and no credit event occurs, the Fund may recover nothing if the swap is held through its termination date. However, if a credit event occurs, the buyer may receive the full notional value of the swap in exchange for an equal face amount of deliverable obligations of the reference entity whose value may have significantly decreased. As a seller, a Fund generally receives an upfront payment or a fixed rate of income throughout the term of the swap provided that there is no credit event. As the seller, a Fund would effectively add leverage to its portfolio because, in addition to its total net assets, a Fund would be subject to investment exposure on the notional amount of the swap.
The spread of a credit default swap is the annual amount the protection buyer must pay the protection seller over the length of the contract, expressed as a percentage of the notional amount. When spreads rise, market-perceived credit risk rises and when spreads fall, market perceived credit risk falls. Wider credit spreads and decreasing market values, when compared to the notional amount of the swap, represent a deterioration of the credit soundness of the issuer of the reference obligation and a greater likelihood or risk of default or other credit event occurring as defined under the terms of the agreement. For credit default swap agreements on asset-backed securities and credit indices, the quoted market prices and resulting values, as well as the annual payment rate, serve as an indication of the current status of the payment/performance risk.
Credit default swap agreements sold by a Fund may involve greater risks than if a Fund had invested in the reference obligation directly since, in addition to general market risks, credit default swaps are subject to illiquidity risk, counterparty risk (with respect to OTC credit default swaps) and credit risk. A Fund will enter into uncleared credit default swap agreements only with counterparties that meet certain standards of creditworthiness. A buyer generally also will lose its investment and recover nothing should no credit event occur and the swap is held to its termination date. If a credit event were to occur, the value of any deliverable obligation received by the seller, coupled with the upfront or periodic payments previously received, may be less than the full notional value it pays to the buyer, resulting in a loss of value to the seller. In addition, there may be disputes between the buyer and seller of a credit default swap agreement or within the swaps market as a whole as to whether a credit event has occurred or what the payment should be. Such disputes could result in litigation or other delays, and the outcome could be adverse for the buyer or seller.
The Fund’s obligations under a credit default swap agreement will be accrued daily (offset against any amounts owing to the Fund). In accordance with current federal securities laws, rules and staff positions, in connection with credit default swaps in which a Fund is the buyer, the Fund will segregate or “earmark” cash or assets determined to be liquid by PIMCO, or enter into certain offsetting positions, with a value at least equal to the Fund’s exposure (any accrued but unpaid net amounts owed by the Fund to any counterparty), on a marked-to-market basis. In accordance with current federal securities laws, rules and staff positions, in connection with credit default swaps in which a Fund is the seller, the Fund will segregate or “earmark” cash or assets determined to be liquid by PIMCO with a value at least equal to the full notional amount of the swap (minus any amounts owed to the Fund). Such segregation or
71

“earmarking” will ensure that the Fund has assets available to satisfy its obligations with respect to the transaction and will limit any potential leveraging of the Fund’s portfolio. Such segregation or “earmarking” will not limit the Fund’s exposure to loss.
The Dodd-Frank Act and related regulatory developments require the clearing and exchange-trading of certain standardized OTC derivative instruments that the CFTC and SEC have defined as “swaps.” The CFTC has implemented mandatory exchange-trading and clearing requirements under the Dodd-Frank Act and the CFTC continues to approve contracts for central clearing. Uncleared swaps are subject to certain margin requirements that mandate the posting and collection of minimum margin amounts on certain uncleared swaps transactions, which may result in the Fund and its counterparties posting higher margin amounts for uncleared swaps than would otherwise be the case. These amounts beyond coverage of daily exposure, if any, may (or if required by law, will) be segregated with a third-party custodian. To the extent a Fund is required by regulation to post additional collateral beyond coverage of daily exposure, it could potentially incur costs, including in procuring eligible assets to meet collateral requirements, associated with such posting. PIMCO will continue to monitor developments in this area, particularly to the extent regulatory changes affect the Funds’ ability to enter into swap agreements.
Whether a Fund’s use of swap agreements or swaptions will be successful in furthering its investment objective will depend on PIMCO’s ability to predict correctly whether certain types of investments are likely to produce greater returns than other investments. Moreover, a Fund bears the risk of loss of the amount expected to be received under a swap agreement in the event of the default or bankruptcy of a swap agreement counterparty. The Funds will enter into OTC swap agreements only with counterparties that meet certain standards of creditworthiness. Certain restrictions imposed on the Funds by the Internal Revenue Code may limit the Funds’ ability to use swap agreements. The swaps market is subject to increasing regulations, in both U.S. and non-U.S. markets. It is possible that developments in the swaps market, including additional government regulation, could adversely affect a Fund’s ability to terminate existing swap agreements or to realize amounts to be received under such agreements.
Swaps are highly specialized instruments that require investment techniques, risk analyses, and tax planning different from those associated with traditional investments. The use of a swap requires an understanding not only of the reference asset, reference rate, or index but also of the swap itself, without the benefit of observing the performance of the swap under all possible market conditions. Because OTC swap agreements are bilateral contracts that may be subject to contractual restrictions on transferability and termination and because they may have remaining terms of greater than seven days, swap agreements may be considered to be illiquid and subject to regulatory limitations on investments in illiquid investments. Please refer to “Illiquid Investments” below for further discussion of regulatory considerations and constraints relating to investment liquidity. To the extent that a swap is not liquid, it may not be possible to initiate a transaction or liquidate a position at an advantageous time or price, which may result in significant losses.
Like most other investments, swap agreements are subject to the risk that the market value of the instrument will change in a way detrimental to a Fund’s interest. A Fund bears the risk that PIMCO will not accurately forecast future market trends or the values of assets, reference rates, indexes, or other economic factors in establishing swap positions for the Fund. If PIMCO attempts to use a swap as a hedge against, or as a substitute for, a portfolio investment, the Fund will be exposed to the risk that the swap will have or will develop imperfect or no correlation with the portfolio investment. This could cause substantial losses for the Fund. While hedging strategies involving swap instruments can reduce the risk of loss, they can also reduce the opportunity for gain or even result in losses by offsetting favorable price movements in other Fund investments. Many swaps are complex and often valued subjectively.
A Fund also may enter into recovery locks. A recovery lock is an agreement between two parties that provides for a fixed payment by one party and the delivery of a reference obligation, typically a bond, by the other party upon the occurrence of a credit event, such as a default, by the issuer of the reference obligation. Recovery locks are used to “lock in” a recovery amount on the reference obligation at the time the parties enter into the agreement. In contrast to a credit default swap where the final settlement amount may be dependent on the market price for the reference obligation upon the credit event, a recovery lock fixes the settlement amount in advance and is not dependent on the market price of the reference obligation at the time of the credit event. Unlike certain other types of derivatives, recovery locks generally do not involve upfront or periodic cash payments by either of the parties. Instead, payment and settlement occurs after there has been a credit event. If a credit event does not occur prior to the termination date of a recovery lock, the agreement terminates and no payments are made by either party. A Fund may enter into a recovery lock to purchase or sell a reference obligation upon the occurrence of a credit event.
72

Recovery locks are subject to the risk that PIMCO will not accurately forecast the value of a reference obligation upon the occurrence of a credit event. For example, if a Fund enters into a recovery lock and agrees to deliver a reference obligation in exchange for a fixed payment upon the occurrence of a credit event, the value of the reference obligation or eventual recovery on the reference obligation following the credit event may be greater than the fixed payment made by the counterparty to the Fund. If this occurs, the Fund will incur a loss on the transaction. In addition to general market risks, recovery locks are subject to illiquidity risk, counterparty risk and credit risk. The market for recovery locks is relatively new and is smaller and less liquid than the market for credit default swaps and other derivatives. Elements of judgment may play a role in determining the value of a recovery lock. It may not be possible to enter into a recovery lock at an advantageous time or price. A Fund will only enter into recovery locks with counterparties that meet certain standards of creditworthiness.
A Fund’s obligations under a recovery lock will be determined daily. In connection with recovery locks in which a Fund is the seller, in accordance with current federal securities laws, rules and staff positions, the Fund will segregate or “earmark” cash or assets determined to be liquid by PIMCO or enter into certain offsetting positions, with a value at least equal to the Fund’s obligations, on a marked-to-market basis. In connection with recovery locks in which a Fund is the buyer, in accordance with current federal securities laws, rules and staff positions, the Fund will segregate or “earmark” cash or assets determined to be liquid by PIMCO or enter into offsetting positions, with a value at least equal to the fixed payment amount of the recovery lock (minus any amounts owed to the Fund, if applicable). Such segregation or “earmarking” will ensure that the Fund has assets available to satisfy its obligations with respect to the transaction and will limit any potential leveraging of the Fund’s portfolio.
Correlation Risk for Certain Funds. In certain cases, the value of derivatives may not correlate perfectly, or at all, with the value of the assets, reference rates or indexes they are designed to closely track. In this regard, certain Funds seek to achieve their investment objectives, in part, by investing in derivatives positions that are designed to closely track the performance (or inverse performance) of an index on a daily basis. However, the overall investment strategies of these Funds are not designed or expected to produce returns which replicate the performance (or inverse performance) of the particular index, and the degree of variation could be substantial, particularly over longer periods. There are a number of factors which may prevent a fund, or derivatives or other strategies used by a fund, from achieving desired correlation with an index. These may include, but are not limited to: (i) the impact of fund fees, expenses and transaction costs, including borrowing and brokerage costs/bid-ask spreads, which are not reflected in index returns; (ii) differences in the timing of daily calculations of the value of an index and the timing of the valuation of derivatives, securities and other assets held by a fund and the determination of the net asset value of fund shares; (iii) disruptions or illiquidity in the markets for derivative instruments or securities in which a fund invests; (iv) a fund having exposure to or holding less than all of the securities in the underlying index and/or having exposure to or holding securities not included in the underlying index; (v) large or unexpected movements of assets into and out of a fund (due to share purchases or redemptions, for example), potentially resulting in the fund being over- or under-exposed to the index; (vi) the impact of accounting standards or changes thereto; (vii) changes to the applicable index that are not disseminated in advance; (viii) a possible need to conform a fund’s portfolio holdings to comply with investment restrictions or policies or regulatory or tax law requirements; and (ix) fluctuations in currency exchange rates. For the PIMCO CommoditiesPLUS ® Strategy Fund and PIMCO CommodityRealReturn Strategy Fund ® , these factors include the possibility that the Fund’s commodity derivatives positions may have different roll dates, reset dates or contract months than those specified in a particular commodity index.
A Note on the PIMCO StocksPLUS ® Short Fund. The PIMCO StocksPLUS ® Short Fund will generally benefit when the value of the Fund’s associated index is declining and will generally not perform well when the index is flat or rising, a result that is different from traditional mutual funds. Under certain conditions, even if the value of the Fund’s associated index is declining (which could be beneficial to a short strategy), this could be offset by declining values of the Fund’s holdings of Fixed Income Instruments. Conversely, it is possible that rising fixed income securities prices could be offset by a flat or rising index (which could lead to losses in a short strategy). In either scenario, the Fund may experience losses. In a market where the value of the Fund’s associated index is flat or rising and its Fixed Income Instrument holdings are declining, the Fund may experience substantial losses. The Fund presents different risks than other types of funds. The Fund may not be suitable for all investors and should be used only by knowledgeable investors who understand the risks and potential consequences of seeking inverse investment results, including the impact of compounding on Fund performance. Investors in the Fund should actively monitor their investments, as frequently as daily. An investor in the Fund could potentially lose the full principal value of his/her investment.
73

However, although the Fund uses derivatives and other short positions to gain exposures that may vary inversely with the performance of its associated index, Fund as a whole is not designed or expected to produce returns which replicate the inverse of the performance of its associated index, and the degree of variation could be substantial, particularly over longer periods. The value of the Fund’s derivatives short positions generally will move in the opposite direction from the value of the Fund’s associated index every day. Accordingly, for periods greater than one day, the effect of compounding may result in the performance of these derivatives positions (and the Fund’s performance attributable to those positions) to be either greater than or less than the inverse of the index performance for such periods, and the extent of the variation could be substantial due to market volatility and other factors. In addition, the results of PIMCO’s active management of the Fund, including the combination of income and capital gains or losses derived from the Fixed Income Instruments held by the Fund and the ability of the Fund to reduce or limit short exposure, may result in an imperfect inverse correlation between the performance of the Fund’s associated index and the performance of the Fund. As noted above, there are a number of other reasons why changes in the value of derivatives positions may not correlate exactly (either positively or inversely) with an index or which may otherwise prevent a mutual fund or its positions from achieving such correlation.
Greenhouse Gas “Cap-and-Trade” Programs. Certain Funds may trade derivative instruments on carbon credits, including, but not limited to, carbon equivalent emissions allowances eligible for trading under the European Union Emissions Trading Scheme (“EUAs”), California Cap-and-Trade Program, and Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiatives (“RGGI”). The derivative instruments on carbon credits will be subject to the risks associated with trading such instruments directly. Those risks are substantial, including possibly illiquid and volatile trading markets, potentially less well developed trading, settlement and safekeeping processes, changing supply and demand which may be impacted by changes in economic growth, output, efficiency measures undertaken by affected industries and possible new technology for curbing carbon emissions, changes in the relevant regulatory body’s regulation of carbon emissions, changes to cap-and-trade program design, changes in oil and gas prices, shifting weather patterns, the continued willingness of parties to continue to observe the carbon emissions limitations and other restrictions, and other possible actions undertaken by the global community in response to the perceived dangers of climate change caused by greenhouse gases.
Synthetic Equity Swaps. Certain Underlying PIMCO Funds may also enter into synthetic equity swaps, in which one party to the contract agrees to pay the other party the total return earned or realized on a particular “notional amount” of value of an underlying equity security including any dividends distributed by the underlying security. The other party to the contract makes regular payments, typically at a fixed rate or at a floating rate based on LIBOR or other variable interest rate based on the notional amount. Similar to currency swaps, synthetic equity swaps are generally entered into on a net basis, which means the two payment streams are netted out and the Underlying PIMCO Fund will either pay or receive the net amount. The Underlying PIMCO Fund will enter into a synthetic equity swap instead of purchasing the reference security when the synthetic equity swap provides a more efficient or less expensive way of gaining exposure to a security compared with a direct investment in the security.
Risks of Potential Government Regulation of Derivatives. It is possible that additional government regulation of various types of derivative instruments, including futures, options and swap agreements, and regulation of certain market participants’ use of the same, may limit or prevent a Fund from using such instruments as a part of its investment strategy, and could ultimately prevent a Fund from being able to achieve its investment objective. It is impossible to fully predict the effects of past, present or future legislation and regulation by multiple regulators in this area, but the effects could be substantial and adverse. It is possible that legislative and regulatory activity could limit or restrict the ability of a Fund to use certain instruments as a part of its investment strategy. These risks may be particularly acute for those Funds, such as the PIMCO CommoditiesPLUS ® Strategy and PIMCO CommodityRealReturn Strategy Fund ® , that make extensive use of commodity-related derivative instruments in seeking to achieve their investment objectives, but would not necessarily be limited to those Funds pursuing a commodity-related investment strategy.
There is a possibility of future regulatory changes altering, perhaps to a material extent, the nature of an investment in the Funds or the ability of the Funds to continue to implement their investment strategies. The futures, options and swaps markets are subject to comprehensive statutes, regulations, and margin requirements. In addition, the SEC, CFTC and the exchanges are authorized to take extraordinary actions in the event of a market emergency, including, for example, the implementation or reduction of speculative position limits, the implementation of higher margin requirements, the establishment of daily price limits and the suspension of trading. The regulation of futures, options and swaps transactions in the United States is a changing area of law and is subject to modification by
74

government and judicial action. The CFTC and various exchanges have rules limiting the maximum net long or short positions which any person or group may own, hold or control in any given futures contract or option on such futures contract. PIMCO will need to consider whether the exposure created under these contracts might exceed the applicable limits in managing the Funds, and the limits may constrain the ability of the Fund to use such contracts. In addition, the CFTC in October 2020 adopted amendments to its position limits rules that establish certain new and amended position limits for 25 specified physical commodity futures and related options contracts traded on exchanges, other futures contracts and related options directly or indirectly linked to such 25 specified contracts, and any OTC transactions that are economically equivalent to the 25 specified contracts. PIMCO will need to consider whether the exposure created under these contracts might exceed the new and amended limits in anticipation of the applicable compliance dates, and the limits may constrain the ability of a Fund to use such contracts. The amendments also modify the bona fide hedging exemption for which certain swap dealers are currently eligible, which could limit the amount of speculative OTC transaction capacity each such swap dealer would have available for the Funds prior to the applicable compliance date.
In particular, the Dodd-Frank Act sets forth a legislative framework for OTC derivatives, including financial instruments, such as swaps, in which the Funds may invest. Title VII of the Dodd-Frank Act makes broad changes to the OTC derivatives market, grants significant authority to the SEC and the CFTC to regulate OTC derivatives and market participants, and requires clearing and exchange trading of many OTC derivatives transactions.
Provisions in the Dodd-Frank Act include capital and margin requirements and the mandatory use of clearinghouse mechanisms for many OTC derivative transactions. The CFTC, SEC and other federal regulators have adopted the rules and regulations enacting the provisions of the Dodd-Frank Act. However, swap dealers, major market participants and swap counterparties are experiencing, and will continue to experience, new and additional regulations, requirements, compliance burdens and associated costs. The Dodd-Frank Act and the rules promulgated thereunder may negatively impact a Fund’s ability to meet its investment objective either through limits or requirements imposed on it or upon its counterparties. In particular, new position limits imposed on a Fund or its counterparties may impact that Fund’s ability to invest in futures, options and swaps in a manner that efficiently meets its investment objective. New requirements, even if not directly applicable to the Funds, including margin requirements, changes to the CFTC speculative position limits regime and mandatory clearing, may increase the cost of a Fund’s investments and cost of doing business, which could adversely affect investors.
Structured Products
The Funds may invest in structured products, including instruments such as credit-linked securities, commodity-linked notes and other products, structured notes, indexed securities, equity-linked securities and equity-linked notes, which are potentially high-risk investments. A structured product generally is a privately-negotiated debt or equity investment the terms of which may combine the features of a traditional stock, bond, or commodity with the features of a derivative such as an option or forward contract. Generally, the principal amount, amount payable upon maturity or redemption, and/or interest rate of a structured product is tied (positively or negatively) to the price of a commodity, currency, securities index, interest rate, or some other economic factor (each a “benchmark”). The interest rate or (unlike most fixed income securities) the principal amount payable at maturity of a structured product may be increased or decreased, depending on changes in the value of the benchmark. An example of a structured product could be a bond issued by an oil company that pays a small base level of interest with additional interest that accrues in correlation to the extent to which oil prices exceed a certain predetermined level. Such a structured product would represent a combination of the features of a bond and a purchased call option on oil.
Structured products can be used as an efficient means of pursuing a variety of investment goals, including currency hedging, duration management, and increased total return. A Fund may invest in structured products as a cash management tool in order to gain exposure to the relevant markets and/or to remain fully invested when more traditional securities are not available. Structured products may not bear interest or pay dividends. The value of a structured product or its interest rate may be a multiple of a benchmark and, as a result, may be leveraged and move (up or down) more steeply and rapidly than the benchmark. These benchmarks may be sensitive to economic and political events, such as commodity shortages and currency devaluations, which cannot be readily foreseen by the investor in a structured product. The assets underlying a structured product may decline in value or default and, under certain conditions, the return on a structured product could be zero. Thus, an investment in a structured product may entail significant market risks that are not associated with an investment in a traditional bond that has a fixed principal amount and pays a fixed rate or floating rate of interest or equity security. Structured products expose a Fund to the
75

risks of the underlying asset or benchmark in addition to the credit risk of the issuer of the structured product and its counterparties or the issuers of its underlying investments. Investors in structured products may not have direct rights against the underlying counterparties or issuers. To the extent the security is tied to derivative instruments, a Fund’s investments in structured products are indirectly subject to the risks associated with derivative instruments, including, among others, credit risk, default or similar event risk, counterparty risk, interest rate risk, leverage risk and management risk. It is expected that structured products generally will be exempt from registration under the 1933 Act. Accordingly, there may be no established trading market for the securities and they may constitute illiquid investments. Please refer to “Illiquid Investments” below for further discussion of regulatory considerations and constraints relating to investment liquidity. Structured products also may be more volatile and more difficult to accurately price than less complex securities and instruments or more traditional debt securities. These risks may cause significant fluctuations in the net asset value of the Fund. To the extent a Fund invests in structured products issued by foreign issuers, it will be subject to the risks associated with the securities of foreign issuers and with securities denominated in foreign currencies. Certain issuers of structured products may be deemed to be investment companies as defined in the 1940 Act. As a result, the Funds’ investments in these structured products may be subject to limits applicable to investments in investment companies and may be subject to restrictions contained in the 1940 Act. Each Fund, except for the PIMCO CommoditiesPLUS ® Strategy Fund, and PIMCO CommodityRealReturn Strategy Fund ® , will not invest more than 5% of its total assets in a combination of credit-linked securities or commodity-linked notes.
Credit-Linked Securities. Credit-linked securities generally are issued by a limited purpose trust or other vehicle that, in turn, invests in a basket of derivative instruments, such as credit default swaps, interest rate swaps and other securities, in order to provide exposure to certain high yield or other fixed income markets. The credit-linked securities discussed herein do not include credit risk transfer securities and credit-linked notes (see “Mortgage-Related Securities and Asset-Backed Securities—Government Sponsored Enterprise Credit Risk Transfer Securities and GSE Credit-Linked Notes”). Like an investment in a bond, investments in credit-linked securities generally represent the right to receive periodic income payments (in the form of distributions) and payment of principal at the end of the term of the security. However, these payments are conditioned on the issuer’s receipt of payments from, and the issuer’s potential obligations to, the counterparties to the derivative instruments and other securities in which the issuer invests. For instance, the issuer may sell one or more credit default swaps, under which the issuer would receive a stream of payments over the term of the swap agreements provided that no event of default has occurred with respect to the referenced debt obligation upon which the swap is based. If a default occurs, the stream of payments may stop and the issuer would be obligated to pay the counterparty the par (or other agreed upon value) of the referenced debt obligation. This, in turn, would reduce the amount of income and principal that a Fund would receive as an investor in the issuer.
Commodity-Linked Notes and Products. Commodity-linked structured products provide exposure to the commodities markets. These are securities with one or more commodity-linked components that have payment features similar to commodity futures contracts, commodity options, or similar instruments. Commodity-linked structured products may be either equity or debt securities, leveraged or unleveraged, and have both security and commodity-like characteristics. A portion of the value of these instruments may be derived from the value of a commodity, futures contract, index or other economic variable. The Funds will only invest in commodity-linked structured products that qualify under applicable rules of the CFTC for an exemption from the provisions of the CEA.
Structured Notes and Indexed Securities. Structured notes are debt instruments, the interest rate or principal of which is determined by an unrelated indicator (for example, a currency, security, commodity or index thereof). Indexed securities may include structured notes as well as structured securities other than debt securities, the interest rate or principal of which is determined by a benchmark. Indexed securities may include a multiplier that multiplies the benchmark by a specified factor and, therefore, the value of such securities may be volatile. The terms of structured notes and indexed securities may be “structured” by the purchaser and the issuer and may provide that in certain circumstances no principal is due at maturity, which may result in a loss of invested capital. Structured notes and indexed securities may be positively or negatively tied to the benchmark, so that appreciation of the benchmark may produce an increase or a decrease in the interest rate paid on the structured note or indexed security or the value of the structured note or indexed security at maturity may be calculated as a specified multiple of the change in the value of the benchmark. Therefore, the value of such notes and securities may be very volatile. To the extent a Fund invests in these notes and securities, however, PIMCO analyzes these notes and securities in its overall assessment of the effective duration of the Fund’s holdings in an effort to monitor the Fund’s interest rate risk.
76

Certain issuers of structured products may be deemed to be investment companies as defined in the 1940 Act. As a result, the Funds’ investments in these structured products may be subject to limits applicable to investments in investment companies and may be subject to restrictions contained in the 1940 Act.
Equity-Linked Securities and Equity-Linked Notes. A Fund may invest a portion of its assets in equity-linked securities. Equity-linked securities are privately issued securities that have a return component based on the performance of a benchmark that is a single stock, a basket of stocks, or a stock index. Equity-linked securities are often used for many of the same purposes as, and share many of the same risks with, certain derivative instruments.
An equity-linked note is a note, typically issued by a company or financial institution, whose performance is tied to a benchmark that is a single stock, a basket of stocks, or a stock index. Generally, upon the maturity of the note, the holder receives a return of principal based on the capital appreciation of the benchmark. The terms of an equity-linked note may also provide for the periodic interest payments to holders at either a fixed or floating rate. Because the notes are equity-linked, they may return a lower amount at maturity due to a decline in value of the benchmark.
Bank Capital Securities
The Funds may invest in bank capital securities. Bank capital securities are issued by banks to help fulfill their regulatory capital requirements. There are two common types of bank capital: Tier I and Tier II. Bank capital is generally, but not always, of investment grade quality. Tier I securities often take the form of common and non-cumulative preferred securities. Tier II securities are commonly thought of as hybrids of debt and preferred securities, are often perpetual (with no maturity date), callable and, under certain conditions, allow for the issuer bank to withhold payment of interest until a later date. Subject to certain regulatory requirements, both Tier I and Tier II securities may include trust preferred securities. As a general matter, trust preferred securities are being phased out as Tier I and Tier II capital of banking organizations unless they qualify for grandfather treatment.
Perpetual Bonds
The Funds may invest in perpetual bonds. Perpetual bonds are fixed income securities with no maturity date but pay a coupon in perpetuity (with no specified ending or maturity date). Unlike typical fixed income securities, there is no obligation for perpetual bonds to repay principal. The coupon payments, however, are mandatory. While perpetual bonds have no maturity date, they may have a callable date in which the perpetuity is eliminated and the issuer may return the principal received on the specified call date. Additionally, a perpetual bond may have additional features, such as interest rate increases at periodic dates or an increase as of a predetermined point in the future.
Trust Preferred Securities
The Funds may invest in trust preferred securities. Trust preferred securities have the characteristics of both subordinated debt and preferred securities. Generally, trust preferred securities are issued by a trust that is wholly-owned by a financial institution or other corporate entity, typically a bank holding company. The financial institution creates the trust and owns the trust’s common securities. The trust uses the sale proceeds of its common securities to purchase subordinated debt issued by the financial institution. The financial institution uses the proceeds from the subordinated debt sale to increase its capital while the trust receives periodic interest payments from the financial institution for holding the subordinated debt. The trust uses the funds received to make dividend payments to the holders of the trust preferred securities. The primary advantage of this structure is that the trust preferred securities are treated by the financial institution as debt securities for tax purposes and as equity for the calculation of capital requirements.
Trust preferred securities typically bear a market rate coupon comparable to interest rates available on debt of a similarly rated issuer. Typical characteristics include long-term maturities, early redemption by the issuer, periodic fixed or variable interest payments, and maturities at face value. Holders of trust preferred securities have limited voting rights to control the activities of the trust and no voting rights with respect to the financial institution. The market value of trust preferred securities may be more volatile than those of conventional debt securities. Trust preferred securities may be issued in reliance on Rule 144A under the 1933 Act and subject to restrictions on resale. There can be no assurance as to the liquidity of trust preferred securities and the ability of holders, such as a Fund, to sell their holdings. In identifying the risks of the trust preferred securities, PIMCO will look to the condition of the financial institution as the trust typically has no business operations other than to issue the trust preferred securities. If
77

the financial institution defaults on interest payments to the trust, the trust will not be able to make dividend payments to holders of its securities, such as a Fund.
As a result of trust preferred securities being phased out of Tier I and Tier II capital of banking organizations, a Fund’s ability to invest in trust preferred securities may be limited. This may impact a Fund’s ability to achieve its investment objective.
Exchange-Traded Notes
Exchange-traded notes (“ETNs”) are senior, unsecured, unsubordinated debt securities whose returns are linked to the performance of a particular market benchmark or strategy minus applicable fees. ETNs are traded on an exchange ( e.g., the New York Stock Exchange  (“NYSE”)) during normal trading hours. However, investors can also hold the ETN until maturity. At maturity, the issuer pays to the investor a cash amount equal to the principal amount, subject to the day’s market benchmark or strategy factor.
ETNs do not make periodic coupon payments or provide principal protection. ETNs are subject to credit risk and the value of the ETN may drop due to a downgrade in the issuer’s credit rating, despite the underlying market benchmark or strategy remaining unchanged. The value of an ETN may also be influenced by time to maturity, level of supply and demand for the ETN, volatility and lack of liquidity in underlying assets, changes in the applicable interest rates, changes in the issuer’s credit rating, and economic, legal, political, or geographic events that affect the referenced underlying asset. When a Fund invests in ETNs it will bear its proportionate share of any fees and expenses borne by the ETN. The Fund’s decision to sell its ETN holdings may be limited by the availability of a secondary market. In addition, although an ETN may be listed on an exchange, the issuer may not be required to maintain the listing and there can be no assurance that a secondary market will exist for an ETN.
ETNs are also subject to tax risk. No assurance can be given that the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) will accept, or a court will uphold, how the Funds characterize and treat ETNs for tax purposes. Further, the IRS and Congress are considering proposals that would change the timing and character of income and gains from ETNs.
An ETN that is tied to a specific market benchmark or strategy may not be able to replicate and maintain exactly the composition and relative weighting of securities, commodities or other components in the applicable market benchmark or strategy. Some ETNs that use leverage can, at times, be relatively illiquid and, thus, they may be difficult to purchase or sell at a fair price. Leveraged ETNs are subject to the same risk as other instruments that use leverage in any form.
The market value of ETN shares may differ from their market benchmark or strategy. This difference in price may be due to the fact that the supply and demand in the market for ETN shares at any point in time is not always identical to the supply and demand in the market for the securities, commodities or other components underlying the market benchmark or strategy that the ETN seeks to track. As a result, there may be times when an ETN share trades at a premium or discount to its market benchmark or strategy.
Master Limited Partnerships (“MLPs”)
MLPs are limited partnerships in which ownership units are publicly traded. Generally, an MLP is operated under the supervision of one or more managing general partners. Limited partners are not involved in the day-to-day management of the partnership. Investments in MLPs are generally subject to many of the risks that apply to partnerships. For example, holders of the units of MLPs may have limited control and limited voting rights on matters affecting the partnership. There may be fewer corporate protections afforded investors in an MLP than investors in a corporation. Conflicts of interest may exist among unit holders, subordinated unit holders and the general partner of an MLP, including those arising from incentive distribution payments. MLPs that concentrate in a particular industry or region are subject to risks associated with such industry or region. MLPs holding credit-related investments are subject to interest rate risk and the risk of default on payment obligations by debt issuers. Investments held by MLPs may be illiquid. MLP units may trade infrequently and in limited volume, and they may be subject to abrupt or erratic price movements.

Participatory Notes
Participatory notes are instruments issued by banks or broker-dealers and are designed to offer a return linked to a particular underlying equity or debt security, currency or market. If a participatory note were held to maturity, the issuer would pay to, or receive from, the purchaser the difference between the nominal value of the underlying instrument at the time of purchase and that instrument’s value at maturity. The holder of a participatory note that is linked to a particular underlying security or instrument may be entitled to receive any dividends paid in connection with that underlying security or instrument, but typically does not receive voting rights as it would if it directly owned the underlying security or instrument. Participatory notes involve transaction costs. Investments in participatory notes involve the same risks associated with a direct investment in the underlying security or instrument that they seek to replicate.
In addition, there can be no assurance that the value of participatory notes will equal the value of the underlying security or instrument that they seek to replicate. Participatory notes constitute general unsecured contractual obligations of the banks or broker-dealers that issue them. Accordingly, there is counterparty risk associated with these investments because a Fund is relying on the creditworthiness of such counterparty and has no rights under a participation note against the issuer of the underlying security or instrument.
Delayed Funding Loans and Revolving Credit Facilities
Each Fund (except for the PIMCO Government Money Market Fund and Municipal Funds) may enter into, or acquire participations in, delayed funding loans and revolving credit facilities. Delayed funding loans and revolving credit facilities are borrowing arrangements in which the lender agrees to make loans up to a maximum amount upon demand by the borrower during a specified term. A revolving credit facility differs from a delayed funding loan in that as the borrower repays the loan, an amount equal to the repayment may be borrowed again during the term of the revolving credit facility. Delayed funding loans and revolving credit facilities usually provide for floating or variable rates of interest. These commitments may have the effect of requiring a Fund to increase its investment in a company at a time when it might not otherwise decide to do so (including at a time when the company’s financial condition makes it unlikely that such amounts will be repaid).
A Fund (except for the PIMCO Government Money Market Fund and Municipal Funds) may invest in delayed funding loans and revolving credit facilities with credit quality comparable to that of issuers of its securities investments. Delayed funding loans and revolving credit facilities may be subject to restrictions on transfer, and only limited opportunities may exist to resell such instruments. As a result, a Fund may be unable to sell such investments at an opportune time or may have to resell them at less than fair market value. Please refer to “Illiquid Investments” below for further discussion of regulatory considerations and constraints relating to investment liquidity. For a further discussion of the risks involved in investing in loan participations and other forms of direct indebtedness see “Loans and Other Indebtedness, Loan Participations and Assignments.” Participation interests in revolving credit facilities will be subject to the limitations discussed in “Loans and Other Indebtedness, Loan Participations and Assignments.” Delayed funding loans and revolving credit facilities are considered to be debt obligations for purposes of the Trust’s investment restriction relating to the lending of funds or assets by a Fund.
When-Issued, Delayed Delivery and Forward Commitment Transactions
Each of the Funds (except for the PIMCO Government Money Market Fund) may purchase or sell securities on a when-issued, delayed delivery, or forward commitment basis. These transactions may be known as to-be-announced (“TBA”) transactions. In accordance with current federal securities laws, rules and staff positions, when such purchases are outstanding, a Fund will segregate or “earmark” liquid assets (or cash equivalent securities in the case of the PIMCO Total Return Fund IV) in an amount sufficient to meet the purchase price. However, such contracts that are not required to “cash settle” may be treated as such for asset segregation or “earmarking” purposes when a Fund has entered into a contractual arrangement with its counterparty to require the trade to be closed out or cash settled prior to or in lieu of physical settlement. Typically, no income accrues on securities the Fund has committed to purchase prior to the time delivery of the securities is made, although the Fund may earn income on securities it has segregated or “earmarked.”
When purchasing a security on a when-issued, delayed delivery, or forward commitment basis, the Fund assumes the rights and risks of ownership of the security, including the risk of price and yield fluctuations, and takes such
79

fluctuations into account when determining its net asset value. Because the Fund is not required to pay for the security until the delivery date, these risks are in addition to the risks associated with the Funds' other investments. If the other party to a transaction fails to deliver the securities, the Fund could miss a favorable price or yield opportunity. If the Fund remains substantially fully invested at a time when when-issued, delayed delivery, or forward commitment purchases are outstanding, the purchases may result in a form of leverage.
When a Fund has sold a security on a when-issued, delayed delivery, or forward commitment basis, the Fund does not participate in future gains or losses with respect to the security. If the other party to a transaction fails to pay for the securities, the Fund could suffer a loss. Additionally, when selling a security on a when-issued, delayed delivery, or forward commitment basis without owning the security, a Fund will incur a loss if the security’s price appreciates in value such that the security’s price is above the agreed upon price on the settlement date.
A Fund may dispose of or renegotiate a transaction after it is entered into, and may purchase or sell when-issued, delayed delivery or forward commitment securities before the settlement date, which may result in a gain or loss. There is no percentage limitation on the extent to which the Funds may purchase or sell securities on a when-issued, delayed delivery, or forward commitment basis.
Standby Commitment Agreements
The Funds and Underlying PIMCO Funds may enter into standby commitment agreements, which are agreements that obligate a party, for a set period of time, to buy a certain amount of a security that may be issued and sold at the option of the issuer. The price of a security purchased pursuant to a standby commitment agreement is set at the time of the agreement. In return for its promise to purchase the security, a Fund or Underlying PIMCO Fund receives a commitment fee based upon a percentage of the purchase price of the security. The Fund or Underlying PIMCO Fund receives this fee whether or not it is ultimately required to purchase the security.
There is no guarantee that the securities subject to a standby commitment agreement will be issued or, if such securities are issued, the value of the securities on the date of issuance may be more or less than the purchase price. A Fund or Underlying PIMCO Fund may be required to limit its investments in standby commitment agreements with remaining terms exceeding seven days pursuant to the regulatory limitation on investments in illiquid investments. Please refer to “Illiquid Investments” below for further discussion of regulatory considerations and constraints relating to investment liquidity. A Fund or Underlying PIMCO Fund will record the purchase of a standby commitment agreement, and will reflect the value of the security in the Fund’s or Underlying PIMCO Fund's net asset value, on the date on which the security can reasonably be expected to be issued.
Infrastructure Investments
Infrastructure entities include companies in the infrastructure business and infrastructure projects and assets representing a broad range of businesses, types of projects and assets. The risks that may be applicable to an infrastructure entity vary based on the type of business, project or asset, its location, the developmental stage of a project and an investor’s level of control over the management or operation of the entity.
Infrastructure entities are typically subject to significant government regulations and other regulatory and political risks, including expropriation; political violence or unrest, including war, sabotage or terrorism; and unanticipated regulatory changes by a government or the failure of a government to comply with international treaties and agreements. Additionally, an infrastructure entity may do business with state-owned suppliers or customers that may be unable or unwilling to fulfill their contractual obligations. Changing public perception and sentiment may also influence a government’s level of support or involvement with an infrastructure entity.
Companies engaged in infrastructure development and construction and infrastructure projects or assets that have not been completed will be subject to construction risks, including construction delays; delays in obtaining permits and regulatory approvals; unforeseen expenses resulting from budget and cost overruns; inexperienced contractors and contractor errors; and problems related to project design and plans. Due to the numerous risks associated with construction and the often incomplete or unreliable data about projected revenues and income for a project, investing in the construction of an infrastructure project involves significant risks. The ability to obtain initial or additional financing for an infrastructure project is often directly tied to its stage of development and the availability of operational data. A project that is complete and operational is more likely to obtain financing than a project at an
80

earlier stage of development. Additionally, an infrastructure entity may not be able to obtain needed additional financing, particularly during periods of turmoil in the capital markets. The cost of compliance with international standards for project finance may increase the cost of obtaining capital or financing for a project. Alternatively, an investment in debt securities of infrastructure entities may also be subject to prepayment risk if lower-cost financing becomes available.
Infrastructure projects or assets may also be subject to operational risks, including the project manager’s ability to manage the project; unexpected maintenance costs; government interference with the operation of an infrastructure project or asset; obsolescence of project; and the early exit of a project’s equity investors. Additionally, the operator of an infrastructure project or asset may not be able to pass along the full amount of any cost increases to customers.
An infrastructure entity may be organized under a legal regime that may provide investors with limited recourse against the entity’s assets, the sponsor or other non-project assets and there may be restrictions on the ability to sell or transfer assets. Financing for infrastructure projects and assets is often secured by cash flows, underlying contracts, and project assets. An investor may have limited options and there may be significant costs associated with foreclosing upon any assets that secure repayment of a financing.
Short Sales
Each of the Funds (except for the PIMCO Government Money Market Fund), particularly the PIMCO RAE Fundamental Advantage PLUS Fund and PIMCO StocksPLUS® Short Fund, may make short sales of securities: (i) to offset potential declines in long positions in similar securities; (ii) to increase the flexibility of the Fund; (iii) for investment return; (iv) as part of a risk arbitrage strategy; and (v) as part of its overall portfolio management strategies involving the use of derivative instruments. A short sale is a transaction in which a Fund sells a security it does not own in anticipation that the market price of that security will decline.
When a Fund makes a short sale, it will often borrow the security sold short and deliver it to the broker-dealer through which it made the short sale as collateral for its obligation to deliver the security upon conclusion of the sale. In connection with short sales of securities, a Fund may pay a fee to borrow securities or maintain an arrangement with a broker to borrow securities, and is often obligated to pay over any accrued interest and dividends on such borrowed securities.
If the price of the security sold short increases between the time of the short sale and the time that a Fund replaces the borrowed security, the Fund will incur a loss; conversely, if the price declines, the Fund will realize a capital gain. Any gain will be decreased, and any loss increased, by the transaction costs described above. If a Fund engages in short sales as part of a hedging strategy, the successful use of short selling may be adversely affected by imperfect correlation between movements in the price of the security sold short and the securities being hedged.
The Funds may invest pursuant to a risk arbitrage strategy to take advantage of a perceived relationship between the values of two securities. Frequently, a risk arbitrage strategy involves the short sale of a security.
To the extent that a Fund engages in short sales, it will provide collateral to the broker-dealer and, in accordance with current federal securities laws, rules and staff positions (except in the case of short sales “against the box”), will maintain additional asset coverage in the form of segregated or “earmarked” assets that PIMCO determines to be liquid and that is equal to the current market value of the securities sold short (calculated daily), or will ensure that such positions are covered by offsetting positions, until the Fund replaces the borrowed security. A short sale is “against the box” to the extent that the Fund contemporaneously owns, or has the right to obtain at no added cost, securities identical to those sold short. The Funds (except the PIMCO Total Return Fund IV) will engage in short selling to the extent permitted by the federal securities laws and rules and interpretations thereunder. The PIMCO Total Return Fund IV will limit short sales, including short exposures obtained using derivative instruments, to 10% of its total assets. To the extent a Fund engages in short selling in foreign (non-U.S.) jurisdictions, the Fund will do so to the extent permitted by the laws and regulations of such jurisdiction.
144A Securities
In addition to a Fund’s investments in privately placed and unregistered securities, a Fund may also invest in securities sold pursuant to Rule 144A under the 1933 Act. Such securities are commonly known as “144A securities”
81

and may only be resold under certain circumstances to other institutional buyers. 144A securities frequently trade in an active secondary market. As a result of the resale restrictions on 144A securities, there is a greater risk that they will become illiquid than securities registered with the SEC. Please refer to “Illiquid Investments” below for further discussion of regulatory considerations and constraints relating to investment liquidity.
Regulation S Securities
A Fund may invest, either directly or through investments in its wholly-owned subsidiary, in the securities of U.S. and non-U.S. issuers that are issued through private offerings without registration with the SEC pursuant to Regulation S under the 1933 Act (“Regulation S Securities”). Offerings of Regulation S Securities may be conducted outside of the United States. Because Regulation S Securities are subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale, Regulation S Securities may be considered illiquid. Please refer to “Illiquid Investments” below for further discussion of regulatory considerations and constraints relating to investment liquidity. Furthermore, because Regulation S Securities are generally less liquid than registered securities, a Fund may take longer to liquidate these positions than would be the case for publicly traded securities. Although Regulation S Securities may be resold in privately negotiated transactions, the price realized from these sales could be less than those originally paid by a Fund. Further, companies whose securities are not publicly traded may not be subject to the disclosure and other investor protection requirements that would be applicable if their securities were publicly traded. Accordingly, Regulation S Securities may involve a high degree of business and financial risk and may result in substantial losses.
Illiquid Investments
In accordance with Rule 22e-4 (the “Liquidity Rule”) under the 1940 Act, each Fund (except the PIMCO Government Money Market Fund) may invest up to 15% of its net assets in “illiquid investments” that are assets. For these purposes, “illiquid investments” are investments that cannot reasonably be expected to be sold or disposed of in current market conditions in seven calendar days or less without the sale or disposition significantly changing the market value of the investment.
For each Fund (other than the PIMCO Government Money Market Fund), each portfolio investment must be classified at least monthly into one of four liquidity categories (highly liquid, moderately liquid, less liquid and illiquid), which are defined pursuant to the Liquidity Rule. Such classification is to be made using information obtained after reasonable inquiry and taking into account relevant market, trading and investment-specific considerations. Moreover, in making such classification determinations, a Fund (except the PIMCO Government Money Market Fund) determines whether trading varying portions of a position in a particular portfolio investment or asset class, in sizes that the Fund would reasonably anticipate trading, is reasonably expected to significantly affect its liquidity, and if so, the Fund takes this determination into account when classifying the liquidity of that investment. The Funds (except the PIMCO Government Money Market Fund) may be assisted in classification determinations by one or more third-party service providers. Assets classified according to this process as “illiquid investments” are those subject to the 15% limit on illiquid investments.
The PIMCO Government Money Market Fund may not invest more than 5% of its “total assets,” as defined in Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act, taken at market value at the time of the investment, in “illiquid securities,” which are defined in Rule 2a-7 to mean securities that cannot be sold or disposed of in the ordinary course of business within seven calendar days at approximately the value ascribed to it by the Fund.
Repurchase Agreements
Each Fund may enter into repurchase agreements, which involve an agreement to purchase a security and to sell that security back to the original seller. The Fund’s cost of purchasing the security plus interest within a specified time. If the party agreeing to repurchase should default, the Fund may seek to sell the securities which it holds. This could involve procedural costs or delays in addition to a loss on the securities if their value should fall below their repurchase price. Please refer to “Illiquid Investments” above for further discussion of regulatory considerations and constraints relating to investment liquidity. The PIMCO Total Return Fund IV will limit investments in repurchase agreements to 50% of the total assets of the Fund.
82

Loans of Portfolio Securities
For the purpose of achieving income, each Fund (except the PIMCO Total Return IV Fund) may lend its portfolio securities to brokers, dealers, and other financial institutions, provided: (i) the loan is secured continuously by collateral consisting of U.S. Government securities, cash or cash equivalents (negotiable certificates of deposits, bankers’ acceptances or letters of credit) maintained on a daily mark-to-market basis in an amount at least equal to 102% of the market value (plus accrued interest) of the securities loaned or 105% of the market value (plus accrued interest) of the securities loaned if the borrowed securities are principally cleared and settled outside of the U.S.; (ii) the Fund may at any time call the loan and obtain the return of the securities loaned; (iii) the Fund will receive any interest or dividends paid on the loaned securities; and (iv) the aggregate market value of securities loaned will not at any time exceed 33  1 3 % of the total assets of the Fund (including the collateral received with respect to such loans). Each Fund’s performance will continue to reflect the receipt of either interest through investment of cash collateral by a Fund in permissible investments, or a fee, if the collateral is U.S. Government securities. Securities lending involves the risk of loss of rights in the collateral or delay in recovery of the collateral should the borrower fail to return the securities loaned or become insolvent. The Funds may pay lending fees to the party arranging the loan. Cash collateral received by a Fund in securities lending transactions may be invested in short-term liquid Fixed Income Instruments or in money market or short-term funds, or similar investment vehicles, including affiliated money market or short-term funds. A Fund bears the risk of such investments.
Investments in Business Development Companies (“BDCs”)
Certain of the Funds may invest in BDCs, which typically operate to invest in, or lend capital to, early stage-to-mature private companies as well as small public companies. BDCs are regulated under the 1940 Act and are generally taxed as regulated investment companies under the Internal Revenue Code. BDCs realize operating income when their investments are sold off or as income is received in connection with lending, and therefore maintain complex organizational, operational, tax and compliance requirements. For tax purposes, BDCs generally intend to qualify for taxation as regulated investment companies. To so qualify, BDCs must satisfy certain asset diversification and source of income tests and must generally distribute at least 90% of their taxable earnings as dividends. Under the 1940 Act, BDCs are also required to invest at least 70% of their total assets primarily in securities of private companies or thinly traded U.S. public companies, cash, cash equivalents, U.S. government securities and high quality debt investments that mature in one year or less. Generally, little public information exists for private and thinly traded companies in which a BDC may invest, and therefore there is a risk that investors may not be able to make a fully informed decision. In addition, investments made by BDCs are typically illiquid and may be difficult to value. A BDC may only incur indebtedness in amounts such that the BDC’s asset coverage, subject to certain conditions, equals at least 150% after such incurrence. These limitations on asset mix and leverage may prohibit the way that the BDC raises capital.
Investments in Underlying PIMCO Funds
The PIMCO Funds of Funds invest substantially all or a significant portion of their assets in Underlying PIMCO Funds. Please see the “Principal Investment Strategies” section in the Prospectuses for a description of the asset allocation strategies and general investment policies of each Fund. In some cases, the PIMCO Funds of Funds and Affiliated Funds of Funds may be the predominant or sole shareholders of a particular Underlying PIMCO Fund. As noted above, investment decisions made with respect to the PIMCO Funds of Funds and Affiliated Funds of Funds could, under certain circumstances, negatively impact the Underlying PIMCO Funds.
For instance, the PIMCO Funds of Funds and Affiliated Funds of Funds may purchase and redeem shares of an Underlying PIMCO Fund as part of a reallocation or rebalancing strategy, which may result in the Underlying PIMCO Fund having to sell securities or invest cash when it otherwise would not do so. Such transactions could increase an Underlying PIMCO Fund’s transaction costs and accelerate the realization of taxable income if sales of securities resulted in gains.
As the PIMCO Funds of Funds and Affiliated Funds of Funds may invest substantially all or a significant portion of their assets in Underlying PIMCO Funds, the Underlying PIMCO Funds may not acquire securities of other registered open-end investment companies in reliance on Section 12(d)(1)(F) or Section 12(d)(1)(G) of the 1940 Act, thus limiting the Underlying PIMCO Funds’ investment flexibility. In addition, as discussed in more detail in the “Regulatory Risk” section below, certain regulatory changes adopted by the SEC may further limit the Underlying
83

PIMCO Funds’ investment flexibility. In addition, as discussed in more detail in the “Regulatory Risk” section below, certain regulatory changes adopted by the SEC may further limit the Underlying PIMCO Funds’ investment flexibility.
Investments in Exchange-Traded Funds (“ETFs”)
Investments in ETFs entail certain risks; in particular, investments in index ETFs involve the risk that the ETF’s performance may not track the performance of the index the ETF is designed to track. Unlike the index, an ETF incurs administrative expenses and transaction costs in trading securities. In addition, the timing and magnitude of cash inflows and outflows from and to investors buying and redeeming shares in the ETF could create cash balances that cause the ETF’s performance to deviate from the index (which remains “fully invested” at all times). Performance of an ETF and the index it is designed to track also may diverge because the composition of the index and the securities held by the ETF may occasionally differ. In addition, investments in ETFs involve the risk that the market prices of ETF shares will fluctuate, sometimes rapidly and materially, in response to changes in the ETF’s NAV, the value of ETF holdings and supply and demand for ETF shares. Although the creation/redemption feature of ETFs generally makes it more likely that ETF shares will trade close to NAV, market volatility, lack of an active trading market for ETF shares, disruptions at market participants (such as Authorized Participants or market makers) and any disruptions in the ordinary functioning of the creation/redemption process may result in ETF shares trading significantly above (at a “premium”) or below (at a “discount”) NAV. Additionally, to the extent an ETF holds securities traded in markets that close at a different time from the ETF’s listing exchange, liquidity in such securities may be reduced after the applicable closing times, and during the time when the ETF’s listing exchange is open but after the applicable market closing, fixing or settlement times, bid/ask spreads and the resulting premium or discount to the ETF’s shares’ NAV may widen. Significant losses may result when transacting in ETF shares in these and other circumstances. Neither PIMCO nor the Trust can predict whether ETF shares will trade above, below or at NAV. An ETF’s investment results are based on the ETF’s daily NAV. Investors transacting in ETF shares in the secondary market, where market prices may differ from NAV, may experience investment results that differ from results based on the ETF’s daily NAV.
Environment, Social Responsibility and Governance and Faith-Based Values Policies
The PIMCO ESG Income Fund, PIMCO Low Duration ESG Fund and PIMCO Total Return ESG Fund will not, as a matter of non-fundamental operating policy, invest in the securities of any non-governmental issuer determined by PIMCO to be engaged principally in the manufacture of alcoholic beverages, tobacco products or military equipment, the operation of gambling casinos, the production or trade of pornographic materials, or in the oil industry, including extraction, production, and refining or the production, distribution of coal and coal fired generation. The PIMCO ESG Income Fund, PIMCO Low Duration ESG Fund and PIMCO Total Return ESG Fund can invest in the securities of any issuer determined by PIMCO to be engaged principally in biofuel production, natural gas generation and sales and trading activities. However, green/sustainable bonds from issuers involved in fossil fuel-related sectors may be permitted. Labeled green bonds are those issues with proceeds specifically earmarked to be used for climate and environmental projects. Labeled green bonds are often verified by a third party, which certifies that the bond will fund projects that include environmental benefits. In addition, the PIMCO Low Duration ESG Fund and PIMCO Total Return ESG Fund will not invest in the securities of any non-governmental issuer determined by PIMCO to be engaged principally in the provision of healthcare services or the manufacture of pharmaceuticals, unless the issuer derives 100% of its gross revenues from products or services designed to protect and improve the quality of human life, as determined on the basis of information available to PIMCO. This generally prohibits investments in healthcare service and/or pharmaceutical manufacturing issuers that derive gross revenue from products or services related to abortion, abortifacients, contraceptives or stem cell research. To the extent possible on the basis of information available to PIMCO, an issuer will be deemed to be engaged principally in an activity if it derives more than 10% of its gross revenues from such activities (“Socially-Restricted Issuers”). In analyzing whether an issuer meets any of the criteria described above, PIMCO may rely upon, among other things, information provided by an independent third party.
The PIMCO Total Return Fund V will not invest in the securities of any non-governmental issuer determined by PIMCO to be engaged principally in the (1) manufacture of alcoholic beverages, tobacco products or military equipment, (2) operation of gambling casinos, (3) oil industry, including extraction, production, and refining, or (4) production or distribution of coal and coal fired generation. To the extent possible on the basis of information available to PIMCO, an issuer will be deemed to be engaged principally in an activity if it derives more than 10% of its gross revenues from such activities (or such more restrictive threshold or exclusionary screen (i.e., a lower gross revenue threshold), as may be determined by PIMCO from time to time). In addition, the Fund will not invest in the securities
84

of any non-governmental issuer known to (1) derive gross revenue from the production, direction or publication of adult entertainment materials, as well as those known to be directly engaged in the business of distributing and retailing such materials, (2) provide abortions or manufacture abortifacients (and entities that own or are owned thereby), (3) manufacture products intended for contraception, (4) engage in certain types of stem cell research (including the use of embryonic or fetal stem cells to develop products), or (5) produce and/or retail cannabis for recreational use, each of the foregoing generally as determined by a third-party data provider and reported to PIMCO. In analyzing whether an issuer meets any of the criteria described in the foregoing sentence (“Total Return V Socially Restricted Issuers”), PIMCO intends to predominantly rely upon, among other things, information provided by an independent third party, including research and screens employed for certain values-based or Catholic institutions such as the MSCI Catholic Values Screening Methodology and related research. Notwithstanding the restrictions set forth above, the Fund can invest in the securities of any issuer determined by PIMCO to be engaged principally in biofuel production, natural gas generation and sales and trading activities. The Fund may also invest in labeled green, sustainable, social and sustainability-linked bonds from issuers involved in fossil fuel-related sectors. Labeled bonds are those issues with proceeds specifically earmarked to be used for climate (often referred to as “green bonds”), environmental sustainability and/or social projects and, in the case of sustainability-linked bonds, bonds that include sustainability-linked covenants, as explained by the issuer through use of a framework and/or legal documentation. Labeled bonds are often verified by a third party, which certifies that a bond will or has been used to fund projects that include eligible benefits or, in the case of sustainability-linked bonds, that the bond includes sustainability-linked covenants.
Evaluation of any particular issuer’s business practices with respect to the environment, social responsibility, and governance (“ESG practices”) will involve the exercise of qualitative and subjective judgment by PIMCO, and there is no guarantee that the criteria utilized, or judgment exercised by PIMCO will reflect the beliefs or values of any one particular investor. Information regarding responsible practices is obtained through voluntary or third-party reporting, which may not be accurate or complete, and PIMCO is dependent on such information to evaluate a company’s commitment to, or implementation of, responsible practices. PIMCO’s assessment of a company’s ESG practices at any given time will, however, be based upon its good faith interpretation of available information and its continuing and reasonable best efforts to obtain and evaluate the most current information available, and to utilize such information, as it becomes available, promptly and expeditiously in portfolio management for the Funds. PIMCO’s assessment of a company's practices and processes relating to ESG investing may also change, including in response to legal and regulatory developments relevant to sustainable and/or ESG investing. In addition, since ESG investing takes into consideration factors beyond traditional financial analysis, a Fund may have fewer investment opportunities available to it than it would have if it did not take into account ESG characteristics of investments. Socially responsible norms differ by region, and in determining the efficacy of an issuer’s ESG practices, PIMCO will use its own proprietary assessments of material ESG issues and may also reference standards as set forth by recognized global organizations such as entities sponsored by the United Nations, among others. Additionally, PIMCO may engage proactively with issuers to encourage them to improve their ESG practices. PIMCO’s activities in this respect may include, but are not limited to, direct dialogue with company management, such as through in-person meetings, phone calls, electronic communications, and letters. Through these engagement activities, PIMCO seeks to identify opportunities for a company to improve its ESG practices, and will endeavor to work collaboratively with company management to establish concrete objectives and to develop a plan for meeting these objectives. The PIMCO ESG Income Fund, PIMCO Low Duration ESG Fund, PIMCO Total Return Fund V and PIMCO Total Return ESG Fund may invest in securities of issuers whose ESG practices are currently suboptimal, with the expectation that these practices may improve over time either as a result of PIMCO’s engagement efforts or through the company’s own initiatives. It may also exclude those issuers that are not receptive to PIMCO’s engagement efforts, as determined in PIMCO’s sole discretion.
The PIMCO ESG Income Fund, PIMCO Low Duration ESG Fund and PIMCO Total Return ESG Fund will not invest in derivative instruments whose returns are based, in whole, on securities issued by Socially-Restricted Issuers. The PIMCO Total Return Fund V will not invest in derivative instruments whose returns are based, in whole, on securities issued by Total Return V Socially-Restricted Issuers. With respect to investments in derivative instruments that are based only in part on securities issued by Socially-Restricted Issuers, including, but not limited to, credit default swaps on an index of securities, the PIMCO ESG Income Fund, PIMCO Low Duration ESG Fund or the PIMCO Total Return ESG Fund may be obligated to take possession of the underlying securities in certain circumstances. With respect to investments in derivative instruments that are based only in part on securities issued by Total Return V Socially-Restricted Issuers, including, but not limited to, credit default swaps on an index of securities, the PIMCO Total Return Fund V may be obligated to take possession of the underlying securities in certain
85

circumstances. In such cases, the PIMCO PIMCO ESG Income Fund, Low Duration ESG Fund, PIMCO Total Return Fund V or the PIMCO Total Return ESG Fund, as applicable, will use reasonable efforts to divest themselves of these securities and may incur a loss in doing so.
Because the PIMCO ESG Income Fund, PIMCO Low Duration ESG Fund, PIMCO Total Return Fund V and PIMCO Total Return ESG Fund adhere to the social investment policies described above, these Funds may be required to forego certain investment opportunities and their associated returns. In addition, there is no assurance that the socially responsible investing strategy and techniques employed will be successful. Regulation of ESG investing in the U.S. and abroad is evolving. Future regulatory developments in the U.S. and abroad which seek to regulate ESG investing approaches and/or associated disclosures may impact or otherwise influence the ESG investing strategies utilized by PIMCO in the future. A Fund’s investments in certain issuers may be susceptible to various factors that may impact their businesses or operations, including costs associated with government budgetary constraints that impact publicly funded projects and initiatives, the effects of general economic conditions throughout the world, increased competition from other providers of services, unfavorable tax laws or accounting policies and high leverage. Past performance is not a guarantee or reliable indicator of future results.
Climate Related Policies
The PIMCO Climate Bond Fund will not invest in the securities of any issuer determined by PIMCO to be engaged principally in the fossil fuel-related sectors, including distribution/retail, equipment and services, extraction and production, petrochemicals, pipelines and transportation and refining, and the production or distribution of coal and coal fired generation. The PIMCO Climate Bond Fund may invest in the securities of issuers determined by PIMCO to be engaged principally in biofuel production, natural gas generation and sales and trading activities. Moreover, the PIMCO Climate Bond Fund will not invest in the securities of any issuer determined by PIMCO to be engaged principally in the manufacture of alcoholic beverages, tobacco products or military equipment, the operation of gambling casinos, or in the production or trade of pornographic materials. To the extent possible on the basis of information available to PIMCO, an issuer will be deemed to be principally engaged in an activity if it derives more than 10% of its gross revenues from such activities (“Restricted Issuers” or “RIs”). In analyzing whether an issuer meets any of the criteria described above, PIMCO may rely upon, among other things, information provided by an independent third party. For the avoidance of doubt, green labeled bonds from issuers involved in fossil fuel-related sectors, as defined above, may be permitted.
Evaluation of any particular issuer’s environmental practices will involve the exercise of qualitative and subjective judgment by PIMCO, and there is no guarantee that the criteria utilized, or judgment exercised by PIMCO will reflect the beliefs or values of any one particular investor. Information regarding environmental practices is obtained through voluntary or third-party reporting, which may not be accurate or complete, and PIMCO is dependent on such information to evaluate a company’s commitment to, or implementation of, environmental practices. PIMCO’s assessment of a company’s environmental practices at any given time will, however, be based upon its good faith interpretation of available information and its continuing and reasonable best efforts to obtain and evaluate the most current information available, and to utilize such information, as it becomes available, promptly and expeditiously in portfolio management for the PIMCO Climate Bond Fund. PIMCO’s assessment of a company's climate-related practices and processes may also change, including in response to legal and regulatory developments relevant to climate-related investing. In addition, since climate-related investing takes into consideration factors beyond traditional financial analysis, the PIMCO Climate Bond Fund may have fewer investment opportunities available to it than it would have if it did not take into account climate-related characteristics of investments. When considering an investment, PIMCO may utilize the following resources, among others, to evaluate climate related factors: PIMCO’s internal research and scoring process relating to climate factors, third party research and data providers, an issuer’s alignment with international commitments deemed relevant by PIMCO (such as the 2016 Paris Agreement on climate change), and/or information made available by the issuer, such as carbon emissions and intensity. In determining the efficacy of an issuer’s environmental practices, PIMCO will use its own proprietary assessments of material environmental and climate-oriented issues and may also reference standards as set forth by recognized global organizations, such as entities sponsored by the United Nations, among others. The PIMCO Climate Bond Fund may avoid investment in the securities of issuers whose business practices with respect to climate specific factors do not meet criteria established by PIMCO. Additionally, PIMCO may engage proactively with issuers to encourage them to improve their environmental practices or preparations for a low carbon economy. PIMCO’s activities in this respect may include, but are not limited to, direct dialogue with company management, such as through in-person meetings, phone calls, electronic communications, and letters. Through these engagement activities, PIMCO will seek to identify
86

opportunities for a company to improve its climate focused practices, and will endeavor to work collaboratively with company management to establish concrete objectives and to develop a plan for meeting these objectives. The PIMCO Climate Bond Fund has flexibility to invest in securities of issuers whose climate-related practices are currently suboptimal, with the expectation that these practices may improve over time either as a result of PIMCO’s engagement efforts or through the company’s own initiatives. The PIMCO Climate Bond Fund may exclude those issuers that are not receptive to PIMCO’s engagement efforts, as determined in PIMCO’s sole discretion.
The PIMCO Climate Bond Fund will not invest in derivative instruments where the counterparties to such transactions are themselves RIs. PIMCO’s determination of whether a counterparty is a RI at any given time will be based upon PIMCO’s good faith interpretation of available information and its continuing and reasonable best efforts to obtain and evaluate the most current information available. PIMCO anticipates that it will review all counterparties periodically to determine whether any qualify as a RI at that time, but will not necessarily conduct such reviews at the time a Fund enters into a transaction. This could cause the Fund to enter into a transaction with a RI counterparty. In such cases, upon the determination that a counterparty is a RI, the PIMCO Climate Bond Fund will use reasonable efforts to divest itself of the applicable investment and may incur a loss in doing so. The PIMCO Climate Bond Fund will not invest in derivative instruments whose returns are based, in whole, on securities issued by RIs. With respect to investments in derivative instruments that are based only in part on securities issued by RIs, including, but not limited to, credit default swaps on an index of securities, the PIMCO Climate Bond Fund may be obligated to take possession of the underlying securities in certain circumstances. In such cases, the PIMCO Climate Bond Fund will use reasonable efforts to divest itself of these securities and may incur a loss in doing so.
Because the PIMCO Climate Bond Fund adheres to the climate related policies described above, the Fund may be required to forego certain investment opportunities and their associated returns. In addition, there is no assurance that the climate related investing strategy and techniques employed will be successful. Changes in political, regulatory, tax, and/or other conditions in the U.S. and abroad with respect to climate-related activities may cause fluctuations in markets and securities prices around the world, which could negatively impact the value of a Fund’s investments. A Fund’s investments in certain issuers may be susceptible to various factors that may impact their businesses or operations, including costs associated with government budgetary constraints that impact publicly funded projects and initiatives, the effects of general economic conditions throughout the world, increased competition from other providers of services, unfavorable tax laws or accounting policies and high leverage. Past performance is not a guarantee or reliable indicator of future results.
Investments in the Wholly-Owned Subsidiaries
Investments in the Commodities Subsidiaries are expected to provide the PIMCO CommoditiesPLUS® Strategy Fund, PIMCO CommodityRealReturn Strategy Fund®, PIMCO Global Core Asset Allocation Fund, PIMCO Inflation Response Multi-Asset Fund and PIMCO TRENDS Managed Futures Strategy Fund, respectively, with exposure to the commodity markets within the limitations of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code and IRS revenue rulings, as discussed below under “Taxation.” Investments in the CSF Subsidiary are expected to provide the PIMCO Preferred and Capital Securities Fund with exposure to Regulation S securities. The Subsidiaries are companies organized under the laws of the Cayman Islands, and are overseen by their own board of directors. The PIMCO CommoditiesPLUS® Strategy Fund is the sole shareholder of the CPS Subsidiary, and it is not currently expected that shares of the CPS Subsidiary will be sold or offered to other investors. The PIMCO CommodityRealReturn Strategy Fund® is the sole shareholder of the CRRS Subsidiary, and it is not currently expected that shares of the CRRS Subsidiary will be sold or offered to other investors. The PIMCO Global Core Asset Allocation Fund is the sole shareholder of the GCAA Subsidiary, and it is not currently expected that shares of the GCAA Subsidiary will be sold or offered to other investors. The PIMCO Inflation Response Multi-Asset Fund is the sole shareholder of the IRMA Subsidiary, and it is not currently expected that shares of the IRMA Subsidiary will be sold or offered to other investors. The PIMCO TRENDS Managed Futures Strategy Fund is the sole shareholder of the MF Subsidiary, and it is not currently expected that shares of the MF Subsidiary will be sold or offered to other investors. The PIMCO Preferred and Capital Securities Fund is the sole shareholder of the CSF Subsidiary, and it is not currently expected that shares of the CSF Subsidiary will be sold or offered to other investors.
It is expected that the Commodities Subsidiaries will invest primarily in commodity-linked derivative instruments, including swap agreements, commodity options, futures and options on futures, backed by a portfolio of inflation-indexed securities and other Fixed Income Instruments. Although the PIMCO CommoditiesPLUS® Strategy Fund, PIMCO CommodityRealReturn Strategy Fund®, PIMCO Global Core Asset Allocation Fund, PIMCO Inflation
87

Response Multi-Asset Fund and PIMCO TRENDS Managed Futures Strategy Fund may enter into these commodity-linked derivative instruments directly, each Fund will likely gain exposure to these derivative instruments indirectly by investing in its Subsidiary. To the extent that PIMCO believes that these commodity-linked derivative instruments are better suited to provide exposure to the commodities market then commodity index-linked notes, each Fund’s investment in its Subsidiary will likely increase. The Commodities Subsidiaries will also invest in inflation-indexed securities and other Fixed Income Instruments, which are intended to serve as margin or collateral for the respective Subsidiary’s derivatives position. To the extent that each of the PIMCO CommoditiesPLUS® Strategy Fund, PIMCO CommodityRealReturn Strategy Fund®, PIMCO Global Core Asset Allocation Fund, PIMCO Inflation Response Multi-Asset Fund and/or PIMCO TRENDS Managed Futures Strategy Fund invests in its respective Commodities Subsidiary, such Fund may be subject to the risks associated with those derivative instruments and other securities, which are discussed elsewhere in the applicable Prospectuses and this Statement of Additional Information.
It is expected that the CSF Subsidiary will invest primarily in newly-issued Regulation S securities, backed by a portfolio of Fixed Income Instruments. The PIMCO Preferred and Capital Securities Fund will gain exposure to these instruments indirectly by investing in the CSF Subsidiary. To the extent the PIMCO Preferred and Capital Securities Fund invests in the CSF Subsidiary, the PIMCO Preferred and Capital Securities Fund may be subject to the risks associated with those newly-issued Regulation S securities, which are discussed elsewhere in the applicable Prospectus and this Statement of Additional Information.
While the Subsidiaries may be considered similar to investment companies, they are not registered under the 1940 Act and, unless otherwise noted in the applicable Prospectuses and this Statement of Additional Information, are not subject to all of the investor protections of the 1940 Act and other U.S. regulations. Changes in the laws of the United States and/or the Cayman Islands could result in the inability of the PIMCO Preferred and Capital Securities Fund, PIMCO CommoditiesPLUS® Strategy Fund, PIMCO CommodityRealReturn Strategy Fund®, PIMCO Global Core Asset Allocation Fund, PIMCO Inflation Response Multi-Asset Fund, PIMCO TRENDS Managed Futures Strategy Fund and/or the Subsidiaries to operate as described in the applicable Prospectuses and this Statement of Additional Information and could negatively affect the Funds and their shareholders.
In May 2014, the Board of Trustees granted PIMCO the authority to establish and terminate wholly-owned subsidiaries of the Funds to implement certain trading strategies, hold certain investments or for other reasons.
Quantitative Investing Risk
PIMCO employs and/or relies on algorithms, models or other systems in connection with certain of its investment activities, including research, forecasting, selection, and execution processes (together, “Systems”). These Systems rely heavily on the use of proprietary and nonproprietary data, software, hardware, and intellectual property, including data, software and hardware that may be licensed or otherwise obtained from third parties. The use of such Systems has inherent limitations and risks. Although PIMCO seeks to develop and use Systems appropriately and effectively, there can be no assurance that it will successfully do so. Errors may occur in the design, writing, testing, monitoring, and/or implementation of Systems, including in the manner in which Systems function together. The effectiveness of Systems may diminish over time, including as a result of market changes and changes in the behavior of market participants. The quality of the resulting analysis, investment selections, portfolio construction, asset allocations, proposed trades, risk management and trading strategies depends on a number of factors including the accuracy and quality of data inputs into the Systems, the mathematical and analytical assumptions and underpinnings of the Systems’ coding, the accuracy in translating those analytics into program code or interpreting the output of a System by another System in order to facilitate a transaction, change in market conditions, the successful integration of the various Systems into the portfolio selection and trading process and whether actual market events correspond to one or more assumptions underlying the Systems. Accordingly, Systems are subject to errors and/or mistakes (“System Incidents”) that may adversely impact a Fund. For example, System Incidents may result in Systems performing in a manner other than as intended, including, but not limited to, failure to achieve desired performance or investment objectives, execution of unanticipated trades or failure to execute intended trades, or failure to identify hedging or other risk management opportunities or targets. Further, if incorrect market data are entered into an otherwise properly functioning System, the System’s resulting output, including proposed trades or investment recommendations, may be inconsistent with the underlying investment strategy. Most Systems require continual monitoring and enhancements, and there is no guarantee that such enhancements will be successful or that Systems will operate as intended. The successful deployment of the investment strategy, the portfolio construction process and/or the trading process could be severely
88

compromised by software or hardware malfunctions, viruses, glitches, connectivity loss, system crashes or various other System Incidents, including, in particular, where multiple Systems contribute to the process (i.e., where one System develops a potential recommended signal or possible trade and another System interprets or optimizes that recommended signal or possible trade to facilitate a trade order). System Incidents may be difficult to detect and PIMCO may not immediately or ever detect certain System Incidents, which may have an increasing impact on a Fund over time. PIMCO will address System Incidents in its sole discretion, subject to any applicable regulatory or contractual requirements, and there is no guarantee that measures taken to address a System Incident will be successful.
System Incidents with respect to the implementation of quantitative strategies or methods may not be considered by PIMCO to be violations of the applicable standards of care and, as a result, losses associated with System Incidents may not be considered compensable to a Fund. PIMCO, in its discretion, may not disclose certain System Incidents to the Funds.
PIMCO relies on quantitative models, data, and trading algorithms supplied by third parties for certain Funds. Such models, data and algorithms are used to construct sets of transactions and investments, to implement investment decisions, and to provide risk management insights. When the third-party models, data or algorithms prove to be incorrect or incomplete, any decisions or investments made in reliance thereon expose applicable Funds to additional risks. For example, PIMCO does not have the same insight or access into the construction, coding or testing of the algorithms, and PIMCO and applicable Funds will be exposed to systems, cyber security and other risks associated with the third party models, data or algorithms. Losses associated with third-party models, data, or algorithms may not be considered compensable to a Fund. PIMCO, in its discretion, may not disclose certain such events to applicable Funds.
Government Intervention in Financial Markets
Governmental and quasi-governmental authorities and regulators throughout the world have in the past responded to major economic disruptions with a variety of significant fiscal and monetary policy changes, including but not limited to, direct capital infusions into companies, new monetary programs and dramatically lower interest rates. For example, in response to the outbreak of COVID-19, Congress has approved stimulus intended to offset the severity and duration of the adverse economic effects of COVID-19 and related disruptions in economic and business activity. Many central banks across Europe, Asia and elsewhere have similarly announced and/or adopted economic relief packages. The introduction and adoption of these packages could cause market disruption and volatility. In addition, the end of any such program could cause market downturns, disruptions and volatility, particularly if markets view the ending as premature.
During periods when interest rates are low (or negative), a Fund’s yield (or total return) may also be low and fall below zero. Very low or negative interest rates may heighten interest rate risk. A Fund may be subject to heightened levels of interest rate risk because the U.S. Federal Reserve (the “Federal Reserve”) has raised interest rates from historically low levels and has signaled an intention to continue to do so. To the extent the Federal Reserve continues to raise interest rates, there is a risk that rates across the financial system may rise. Changing interest rates may have unpredictable effects on markets, may result in heightened market volatility and may detract from Fund performance to the extent a Fund is exposed to such interest rates and/or volatility.
In addition, instability in the financial markets during and after the 2008-2009 financial downturn also led the U.S. Government and governments across the world to take a number of actions designed to support certain financial institutions and segments of the financial markets that experienced extreme volatility, and in some cases a lack of liquidity. Most significantly, the U.S. Government has enacted a broad-reaching regulatory framework over the financial services industry and consumer credit markets. Federal, state, and other governments, their regulatory agencies, or self-regulatory organizations may take actions that affect the regulation of the instruments in which the Funds invest or the issuers of such instruments, in ways that are unforeseeable. Legislation or regulation may also change the way in which the Funds themselves are regulated. Such legislation or regulation could limit or preclude a Fund’s ability to achieve its investment objective.
Governments or their agencies may also acquire distressed assets from financial institutions and acquire ownership interests in those institutions. The implications of government ownership and disposition of these assets are unclear, and such a program may have positive or negative effects on the liquidity, valuation and performance of the
89

Funds' portfolio holdings. Furthermore, volatile financial markets can expose the Funds to greater market and liquidity risk and potential difficulty in valuing portfolio instruments held by the Fund. The Fund have established procedures to assess the liquidity of portfolio holdings and to value instruments for which market prices may not be readily available. PIMCO will monitor developments and seek to manage the Funds in a manner consistent with achieving each Fund’s investment objective, but there can be no assurance that it will be successful in doing so.
The value of a Fund’s holdings is also generally subject to the risk of future local, national, or global economic disturbances based on unknown weaknesses in the markets in which a Fund invests. In the event of such a disturbance, issuers of securities held by a Fund may experience significant declines in the value of their assets and even cease operations, or may receive government assistance accompanied by increased restrictions on their business operations or other government intervention. In addition, it is not certain that the U.S. Government will intervene in response to a future market disturbance and the effect of any such future intervention cannot be predicted. It is difficult for issuers to prepare for the impact of future financial downturns, although companies can seek to identify and manage future uncertainties through risk management programs.
In July 2014 and September 2015, the SEC amended certain regulations that govern money market funds registered under the 1940 Act (“Rule 2a-7 Amendments”) to adopt several reforms, all of which became effective by October 14, 2016. First, the Rule 2a-7 Amendments allow (or, in certain circumstances, require) a money market fund to impose liquidity fees, and permit a money market fund to limit (or gate) redemptions for up to 10 business days in any 90-day period, when a fund’s liquidity levels fall below certain thresholds. Second, the Rule 2a-7 Amendments require “institutional” money market funds that do not qualify as “retail” or “government” money market funds (as defined in the Rule 2a-7 Amendments) to transact fund shares based on a market-based NAV (i.e., these funds will be required to float their NAVs). Retail and government money market funds are permitted to transact fund shares at a NAV calculated using the amortized cost method of valuation, and government money market funds are also exempted from the provisions of the Rule 2a-7 Amendments concerning liquidity fees and/or redemption gates. Additionally, the Rule 2a-7 Amendments impose new disclosure and reporting requirements as well as enhanced portfolio quality and diversification requirements. The degree to which a money market fund is impacted by the Rule 2a-7 Amendments depends upon the type of fund (institutional, retail or government). The PIMCO Government Money Market Fund intends to operate as a government money market fund under the Rule 2a-7 Amendments. 
Cash Holdings
If PIMCO believes that economic or market conditions are unfavorable to investors, PIMCO may temporarily invest up to 100% of a Fund’s assets in certain defensive strategies for temporary or indefinite periods. These defensive strategies include holding a substantial portion of the Fund’s assets in cash, cash equivalents or other highly rated short-term securities, including securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government, its agencies or instrumentalities. As discussed in the Statement of Additional Information, a Fund may also invest in affiliated money market and/or short-term bond funds for cash management purposes.
Increasing Government and Other Public Debt
Government and other public debt, including municipal securities, can be adversely affected by large and sudden changes in local and global economic conditions that result in increased debt levels. For example, the total public debt of the United States and other countries around the globe as a percentage of gross domestic product has grown rapidly since the beginning of the 2008-2009 financial downturn and has accelerated in connection with the U.S. Government’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Governmental agencies project that the United States will continue to maintain high debt levels for the foreseeable future. Although high debt levels do not necessarily indicate or cause economic problems, they may create certain systemic risks if sound debt management practices are not implemented.
A high debt level may increase market pressures to meet government funding needs, which can increase debt costs and cause a government or public or municipal entity to issue additional debt, thereby increasing refinancing risk. A high debt level also raises concerns that the issuer may be unable or unwilling to make principal or interest payments when they are due, which may adversely impact the value of certain instruments held by a Fund. Unsustainable debt levels can cause declines in the valuation of currencies, and can prevent a government from implementing effective counter-cyclical fiscal policy in economic downturns or can generate or contribute to an economic downturn. In addition, the high and rising level of U.S. national debt may adversely impact the
90

U.S. economy and securities in which a Fund may invest. From time to time, uncertainty regarding the status of negotiations in the U.S. Government to increase the statutory debt ceiling could: increase the risk that the U.S. Government may default on payments on certain U.S. Government securities; cause the credit rating of the U.S. Government to be downgraded or increase volatility in both stock and bond markets; result in higher interest rates; reduce prices of U.S. Treasury securities; and/or increase the costs of certain kinds of debt.
In the past, the U.S. sovereign credit rating has experienced downgrades and there can be no guarantee that it will not experience further downgrades in the future by rating agencies. The rating market, prices and yields of securities supported by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government may be adversely affected by a rating agency’s decision to downgrade the U.S. sovereign credit rating. The foregoing risks could adversely affect the value of the Funds' investments.
Inflation and Deflation
The Funds are subject to inflation and deflation risk. Inflation risk is the risk that the present value of assets or income of a Fund will be worth less in the future as inflation decreases the present value of money. A Fund’s dividend rates or borrowing costs, where applicable, may also increase during periods of inflation. This may further reduce Fund performance. The rate of inflation in many countries worldwide has increased in recent years due to supply chain disruptions, fiscal or monetary stimulus, energy price increases, wage inflation and the Russian invasion of Ukraine, among other factors. The Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System (the “Federal Reserve”) in the United States has begun to raise the federal funds rate and has signaled the possibility of further increases. There is no guarantee that actions taken by the Federal Reserve and other governmental bodies to reduce inflation will be effective. Deflation risk is the risk that prices throughout the economy decline over time creating an economic recession, which could make issuer default more likely and may result in a decline in the value of a Fund’s assets. Generally, securities issued in emerging markets are subject to a greater risk of inflationary or deflationary forces, and more developed markets are better able to use monetary policy to normalize markets.
Regulatory Risk
Financial entities, such as investment companies and investment advisers, are generally subject to extensive government regulation and intervention. Government regulation and/or intervention may change the way a Fund is regulated, affect the expenses incurred directly by a Fund and the value of its investments, and limit and/or preclude a Fund’s ability to achieve its investment objective. Government regulation may change frequently and may have significant adverse consequences. Moreover, government regulation may have unpredictable and unintended effects. Many of the changes required by the Dodd-Frank Act could materially impact the profitability of the Funds and the value of assets they hold, expose the Funds to additional costs, require changes to investment practices, and adversely affect the Funds' ability to pay dividends. For example, the Volcker Rule’s restrictions on proprietary trading have negatively impacted fixed income market making capacity, which resulted in reduced liquidity in certain fixed income markets. Other regulations, such as the Risk Retention Rules, have increased costs for certain securitization transactions. Additional legislative or regulatory actions to address perceived liquidity or other issues in fixed income markets generally, or in particular markets such as the municipal securities market, may alter or impair the Funds' ability to pursue their investment objectives or utilize certain investment strategies and techniques. While there continues to be uncertainty about the full impact of these and other regulatory changes, it is the case that the Funds will be subject to a more complex regulatory framework, and may incur additional costs to comply with new requirements as well as to monitor for compliance in the future.
Actions by governmental entities may also impact certain instruments in which a Fund invests. For example, certain instruments in which a Fund may invest rely in some fashion upon LIBOR. LIBOR is an average interest rate, determined by the ICE Benchmark Administration, that banks charge one another for the use of short-term money. On July 27, 2017, the Chief Executive of the Financial Conduct Authority (“FCA”), the United Kingdom’s financial regulatory body and regulator of LIBOR, announced that after 2021 it would cease its active encouragement of banks to provide the quotations needed to sustain LIBOR due to the absence of an active market for interbank unsecured lending and other reasons. On March 5, 2021, the FCA publicly announced that all U.S. Dollar LIBOR settings will either cease to be provided by any administrator or will no longer be representative (i) immediately after December 31, 2021 for one-week and two-month U.S. Dollar LIBOR settings and (ii) immediately after June 30, 2023 for the remaining U.S. Dollar LIBOR settings. As of January 1, 2022, as a result of supervisory guidance from U.S. regulators, some U.S. regulated entities have ceased entering into new LIBOR contracts with limited exceptions.
91

While publication of the one-, three- and six- month Sterling and Japanese yen LIBOR settings will continue at least through calendar year 2022 on the basis of a changed methodology (known as “synthetic LIBOR”), these rates have been designated by the FCA as unrepresentative of the underlying market they seek to measure and are solely available for use in legacy transactions. Certain bank-sponsored committees in other jurisdictions, including Europe, the United Kingdom, Japan and Switzerland, have selected alternative reference rates denominated in other currencies. There remains uncertainty regarding the future utilization of LIBOR and the nature of any replacement rate ( e.g. , the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”), which is intended to replace U.S. dollar LIBOR and measures the cost of overnight borrowings through repurchase agreement transactions collateralized with U.S. Treasury securities). Any potential effects of the transition away from LIBOR on a Fund or on certain instruments in which a Fund invests can be difficult to ascertain, and they may vary depending on factors that include, but are not limited to: (i) existing fallback or termination provisions in individual contracts and (ii) whether, how, and when industry participants develop and adopt new reference rates and fallbacks for both legacy and new products and instruments. For example, certain of a Fund’s investments may involve individual contracts that have no existing fallback provision or language that contemplates the discontinuation of LIBOR, and those investments could experience increased volatility or reduced liquidity as a result of the transition process. In addition, interest rate provisions included in such contracts may need to be renegotiated in contemplation of the transition away from LIBOR. On March 15, 2022, the Adjustable Interest Rate (LIBOR) Act was signed into law. This law provides a statutory fallback mechanism on a nationwide basis to replace LIBOR with a benchmark rate that is selected by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System and based on SOFR for certain contracts that reference LIBOR and contain no, or insufficient, fallback provisions. It is expected that implementing regulations in respect of the law will follow. The transition of investments from LIBOR to a replacement rate as a result of amendment, application of existing fallbacks, statutory requirements or otherwise may also result in a reduction in the value of certain instruments held by a Fund or a reduction in the effectiveness of related Fund transactions such as hedges. Any such effects of the transition away from LIBOR, as well as other unforeseen effects, could result in losses to a Fund. Additionally, alteration of the terms of a debt instrument or a modification of the terms of other types of contracts to replace LIBOR or another interbank offered rate (“IBOR”) with a new reference rate could result in a taxable exchange and the realization of income and gain/loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The IRS has issued final regulations regarding the tax consequences of the transition from IBOR to a new reference rate in debt instruments and non-debt contracts. Under the final regulations, alteration or modification of the terms of a debt instrument to replace an operative rate that uses a discontinued IBOR with a qualified rate (as defined in the final regulations) including true up payments equalizing the fair market value of contracts before and after such IBOR transition, to add a qualified rate as a fallback rate to a contract whose operative rate uses a discontinued IBOR or to replace a fallback rate that uses a discontinued IBOR with a qualified rate would not be taxable. The IRS may provide additional guidance, with potential retroactive effect.
In October 2020, the SEC adopted a final rule related to the use of derivatives, reverse repurchase agreements and certain other transactions by registered investment companies. A Fund's trading of derivatives and other transactions that create future payment or delivery obligations is subject to value-at-risk (“VaR”) leverage limits and derivatives risk management program and reporting requirements. Generally, these requirements apply unless a Fund satisfies a “limited derivatives users” exception that is included in the final rule. Under the rule, when a Fund trades reverse repurchase agreements or similar financing transactions, including certain tender option bonds, it needs to aggregate the amount of indebtedness associated with the reverse repurchase agreements or similar financing transactions with the aggregate amount of any other senior securities representing indebtedness when calculating a Fund’s asset coverage ratio or treat all such transactions as derivatives transactions. Reverse repurchase agreements or similar financing transactions aggregated with other indebtedness do not need to be included in the calculation of whether a Fund satisfies the limited derivatives users exception, but for funds subject to the VaR testing requirement, reverse repurchase agreements and similar financing transactions must be included for purposes of such testing whether treated as derivatives transactions or not. The SEC also provided guidance in connection with the rule regarding the use of securities lending collateral that may limit a Fund’s securities lending activities. In addition, under the rule, a Fund is permitted to invest in a security on a when-issued or forward-settling basis, or with a non-standard settlement cycle, and the transaction will be deemed not to involve a senior security (as defined under Section 18(g) of the 1940 Act), provided that, (i) the Fund intends to physically settle the transaction and (ii) the transaction will settle within 35 days of its trade date (the “Delayed-Settlement Securities Provision”). A Fund may otherwise engage in when-issued, forward-settling and non-standard settlement cycle securities transactions that do not meet the conditions of the Delayed-Settlement Securities Provision so long as the Fund treats any such transaction as a “derivatives transaction” for purposes of compliance with the final rule. Furthermore, under the final rule, the Fund will be permitted to enter into an unfunded commitment agreement, and such unfunded commitment agreement will not be subject to the asset coverage requirements under the 1940 Act, if the Fund reasonably believes, at the time it enters into such agreement,
92

that it will have sufficient cash and cash equivalents to meet its obligations with respect to all such agreements as they come due. These requirements may limit the ability of a Fund to use derivatives, reverse repurchase agreements and similar financing transactions, when-issued, delayed delivery and forward commitment transactions, and unfunded commitment agreements as part of its investment strategies. These requirements may increase the cost of a Fund’s investments and cost of doing business, which could adversely affect investors. PIMCO cannot predict the effects of these regulations on the Funds. PIMCO intends to monitor developments and seek to manage the Funds in a manner consistent with achieving the Funds' investment objectives, but there can be no assurance that it will be successful in doing so.
In October 2020, the SEC adopted certain regulatory changes and took other actions related to the ability of registered investment companies to invest in other registered investment companies. These changes include, among other things, the adoption of Rule 12d1-4 under the 1940 Act (the “Fund of Funds Rule”), the rescission of Rule 12d1-2 under the 1940 Act, and the withdrawal of certain related exemptive relief and no-action assurances. Such changes could adversely impact the investment strategies and operations of the PIMCO Funds of Funds and Underlying PIMCO Funds, as well as Funds serving as underlying funds of Affiliated Funds of Funds or third-party funds of funds.
In December 2020, the SEC adopted a rule addressing fair valuation of fund investments. The new rule sets forth requirements for good faith determinations of fair value as well as for the performance of fair value determinations, including related oversight and reporting obligations. The new rule also defines “readily available market quotations” for purposes of the definition of “value” under the 1940 Act, and the SEC noted that this definition will apply in all contexts under the 1940 Act. The SEC adopted an 18-month transition period beginning from the effective date for both the new rule and the associated new recordkeeping requirements. The impact of the new rule on the Funds is uncertain at this time.
In May 2022, the SEC proposed amendments to a current rule governing fund naming conventions. In general, the current rule requires funds with certain types of names to adopt a policy to invest at least 80% of their assets in the type of investment suggested by the name. The proposed amendments would expand the scope of the current rule in a number of ways that would result in an expansion of the types of fund names that would require the fund to adopt an 80% investment policy under the rule. Additionally, the proposed amendments would modify the circumstances under which a fund may deviate from its 80% investment policy and address the use and valuation of derivatives instruments for purposes of the rule. The proposal’s impact on the Funds will not be known unless and until any final rulemaking is adopted.
In May 2022, the SEC proposed a framework that would require certain registered funds (such as the Funds) to disclose their environmental, social, and governance (“ESG”) investing practices. Among other things, the proposed requirements would mandate that funds meeting three pre-defined classifications (i.e., integrated, ESG focused and/or impact funds) provide prospectus and shareholder report disclosure related to the ESG factors, criteria and processes used in managing the fund. The proposal’s impact on the Funds will not be known unless and until any final rulemaking is adopted.
CSDR Related Risk
The European Union has adopted a settlement discipline regime under Regulation (EU) No 909/2014 and the Settlement Discipline RTS as they may be modified from time to time (“CSDR”), which will have phased compliance dates. It aims to reduce the number of settlement fails that occur in EEA central securities depositories (“CSDs”) and address settlement fails where they occur. The key elements of the regime are: (i) mandatory buy-ins – if a settlement fail continues for a specified period of time after the intended settlement date, a buy-in process must be initiated to effect the settlement; (ii) cash penalties - EEA CSDs are required to impose cash penalties on participants that cause settlement fails and distribute these to receiving participants; and (iii) allocations and confirmations – EEA investment firms are required to take measures to prevent settlement fails, including putting in place arrangements with their professional clients to communicate securities allocations and transaction confirmations.
These requirements apply to transactions in transferable securities (e.g., shares and bonds), money market instruments, units in funds and emission allowances that are to be settled via an EEA CSD and, in the case of cash penalties and buy-in requirements only, are admitted to trading or traded on an EEA trading venue or cleared by an EEA central counterparty.
93

The implementation of the CSDR settlement discipline regime for Funds that enter into in-scope transactions may result in increased operational and compliance costs being borne directly or indirectly by the Funds. CSDR may also affect liquidity and increase trading costs associated with relevant securities. If in-scope transactions are subject to additional expenses and penalties as a consequence of the CSDR settlement discipline regime, such expenses and penalties may be charged to the relevant Fund depending upon their characterization under the Fund’s Advisory Contract and Supervision and Administration Agreement (each defined below).
Liquidation of the Funds
The Board of Trustees of the Trust may determine to close and/or liquidate a Fund at any time, which may have adverse tax consequences to shareholders. In the event of the liquidation of a Fund, shareholders will receive a liquidating distribution in cash or in-kind equal to their proportionate interest in the Fund. The value of an investment in a Fund, and any subsequent distribution in the event of a termination, will be subject to market conditions at that time. A liquidating distribution would generally be a taxable event to shareholders, resulting in a gain or loss for tax purposes, depending upon a shareholder’s basis in his or her shares of the Fund. A shareholder of a liquidating Fund will not be entitled to any refund or reimbursement of expenses borne, directly or indirectly, by the shareholder (such as sales loads, shareholder account fees (if any), or Fund operating expenses), and a shareholder may receive an amount in liquidation less than the shareholder’s original investment.
It is the intention of any Fund expecting to close or liquidate to retain its qualification as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code during the liquidation period and, therefore, not to be taxed on any of its net capital gains realized from the sale of its assets or ordinary income earned that it timely distributes to shareholders. In the unlikely event that a Fund should lose its status as a regulated investment company during the liquidation process, the Fund would be subject to taxes which would reduce any or all of the types of liquidating distributions.
Participation in Litigation or Arbitration Proceedings
PIMCO, in its judgment and discretion and based on the considerations deemed by PIMCO to be relevant, may believe that it is in the best interests of a Fund to initiate or settle a claim or join a class of plaintiffs pursuing a claim as lead plaintiff (or opt out of a class and pursue a claim directly). Similarly, PIMCO may determine not to take or not to recommend any such action. To the extent that a Fund has liquidated, PIMCO will generally not take or recommend any such action. Subject to procedures approved by the Board of Trustees, PIMCO may, on behalf of a Fund, directly initiate or participate in litigation or an arbitration proceeding as a named plaintiff or claimant. Pursuant to such procedures, PIMCO may, without limitation, (i) engage legal counsel for a Fund and/or cause a Fund to pay fair and reasonable legal fees and expenses incurred in connection with investigating the validity of a potential claim (or performing other due diligence relating to a potential claim) or taking any actions considered by PIMCO to be necessary or appropriate (a) to protect or preserve a Fund’s rights or interests in connection with (1) defending a claim made against a Fund and (2) initiating or otherwise engaging in preliminary measures intended to facilitate possible future litigation or arbitration or otherwise support a judicial decision favorable to a Fund and (b) to preserve a Fund’s ability to bring a claim and to prevent the expiration of an applicable statute of limitations; and (ii) on behalf of a Fund that is not acting or seeking to act as a named plaintiff or claimant, (a) give direction to a third party (such as trustees or service providers), (b) cause a Fund to advance fair and reasonable legal fees and expenses to such third party, and/or (c) indemnify, on behalf of a Fund, such third party for its fair and reasonable fees and expenses, in each such case in connection with litigation or a claim concerning the Fund’s investment and pursuant to the terms of the investment (including, without limitation, as a result of a Fund’s holding of a certificate issued by a trust where the trustee or other service provider to the trust is commencing litigation or pursuing a claim on behalf of the trust). PIMCO may also vote for or authorize a settlement relating to litigation or a claim described in subparagraph (ii) above. Pursuant to the Board approved procedures, a Fund may directly bear a portion or all of the fees associated with the actions described above.
Fund Operations
Operational Risk.     An investment in a Fund, like any fund, can involve operational risks arising from factors such as processing errors, human errors, inadequate or failed internal or external processes, failures in systems and technology, changes in personnel and errors caused by third-party service providers. The occurrence of any of these failures, errors or breaches could result in a loss of information, regulatory scrutiny, reputational damage or other
94

events, any of which could have a material adverse effect on a Fund. While the Funds seek to minimize such events through controls and oversight, there may still be failures that could cause losses to a Fund.
Market Disruptions Risk.     The Funds are subject to investment and operational risks associated with financial, economic and other global market developments and disruptions, including those arising from war, terrorism, market manipulation, government interventions, defaults and shutdowns, political changes or diplomatic developments, public health emergencies (such as the spread of infectious diseases, pandemics and epidemics) and natural/environmental disasters, which can all negatively impact the securities markets and cause a Fund to lose value. These events can also impair the technology and other operational systems upon which the Funds' service providers, including PIMCO as the Funds' investment adviser, rely, and could otherwise disrupt the Funds' service providers’ ability to fulfill their obligations to the Funds.
The recent spread of an infectious respiratory illness caused by a novel strain of coronavirus (known as COVID-19) has caused volatility, severe market dislocations and liquidity constraints in many markets, including markets for the securities the Funds hold, and may adversely affect the Funds' investments and operations. The transmission of COVID-19 and efforts to contain its spread have resulted in travel restrictions and disruptions, closed international borders, enhanced health screenings at ports of entry and elsewhere, disruption of and delays in healthcare service preparation and delivery, quarantines, event and service cancellations or interruptions, disruptions to business operations (including staff furloughs and reductions) and supply chains, and a reduction in consumer and business spending, as well as general concern and uncertainty that has negatively affected the economy. These disruptions have led to instability in the market place, including equity and debt market losses and overall volatility, and the jobs market. The impact of COVID-19, and other infectious illness outbreaks, epidemics or pandemics that may arise in the future, could adversely affect the economies of many nations or the entire global economy, the financial well-being and performance of individual issuers, borrowers and sectors and the health of the markets generally in potentially significant and unforeseen ways. In addition, the impact of infectious illnesses, such as COVID-19, in emerging market countries may be greater due to generally less established healthcare systems. This crisis or other public health crises may exacerbate other pre-existing political, social and economic risks in certain countries or globally.
The foregoing could lead to a significant economic downturn or recession, increased market volatility, a greater number of market closures, higher default rates and adverse effects on the values and liquidity of securities or other assets. Such impacts, which may vary across asset classes, may adversely affect the performance of the Funds. In certain cases, an exchange or market may close or issue trading halts on specific securities or even the entire market, which may result in the Funds being, among other things, unable to buy or sell certain securities or financial instruments or to accurately price their investments. These and other developments may adversely affect the liquidity of the Funds' holdings (see “Liquidity Risk” in the Prospectuses for further details).
Cyber Security Risk.     As the use of technology has become more prevalent in the course of business, the Funds have become potentially more susceptible to operational and information security risks resulting from breaches in cyber security. A breach in cyber security refers to both intentional and unintentional cyber events from outside threat actors or internal resources that may, among other things, cause a Fund to lose proprietary information, suffer data corruption and/or destruction or lose operational capacity, result in the unauthorized release or other misuse of confidential information, or otherwise disrupt normal business operations. Cyber security breaches may involve unauthorized access to a Fund’s digital information systems ( e.g., through “hacking” or malicious software coding) and may come from multiple sources, including outside attacks such as denial-of-service attacks ( i.e., efforts to make network services unavailable to intended users) or cyber extortion, including exfiltration of data held for ransom and/or “ransomware” attacks that renders systems inoperable until ransom is paid, or insider actions. In addition, cyber security breaches involving a Fund’s third party service providers (including but not limited to advisers, sub-advisers, administrators, transfer agents, custodians, vendors, suppliers, distributors and other third parties), trading counterparties or issuers in which a Fund invests can also subject a Fund to many of the same risks associated with direct cyber security breaches or extortion of company data. Moreover, cyber security breaches involving trading counterparties or issuers in which a Fund invests could adversely impact such counterparties or issuers and cause the Fund’s investment to lose value.
Cyber security failures or breaches may result in financial losses to a Fund and its shareholders. These failures or breaches may also result in disruptions to business operations, potentially resulting in financial losses; interference with a Fund’s ability to calculate its net asset value, process shareholder transactions or otherwise transact business with shareholders; impediments to trading; violations of applicable privacy and other laws; regulatory fines; penalties;
95

third party claims in litigation; reputational damage; reimbursement or other compensation costs; additional compliance and cyber security risk management costs and other adverse consequences. In addition, substantial costs may be incurred in order to prevent any cyber incidents in the future.
Like with operational risk in general, the Funds have established business continuity plans and risk management systems designed to reduce the risks associated with cyber security. However, there are inherent limitations in these plans and systems, including that certain risks may not have been identified, in large part because different or unknown threats may emerge in the future. As such, there is no guarantee that such efforts will succeed, especially because the Funds do not directly control the cyber security systems of issuers in which a Fund may invest, trading counterparties or third party service providers to the Funds. Such entities have experienced cyber attacks and other attempts to gain unauthorized access to systems from time to time, and there is no guarantee that efforts to prevent or mitigate the effects of such attacks or other attempts to gain unauthorized access will be successful. There is also a risk that cyber security breaches may not be detected. The Funds and their shareholders may suffer losses as a result of a cyber security breach related to the Funds, their service providers, trading counterparties or the issuers in which a Fund invests.

Non-Fundamental Investment Restrictions
Each Fund is also subject to the following non-fundamental restrictions and policies (which may be changed by the Trust’s Board of Trustees without shareholder approval) relating to the investment of its assets and activities:
1.
A Fund (except for the PIMCO Government Money Market Fund) may not invest more than 15% of its net assets in illiquid investments that are assets, as determined pursuant to Rule 22e-4 under the 1940 Act and the Fund’s procedures adopted thereunder. The PIMCO Government Money Market Fund may not invest more than 5% of its “total assets,” as defined in Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act, taken at market value at the time of the investment in “illiquid securities,” which are defined in Rule 2a-7 to mean securities that cannot be sold or disposed of in the ordinary course of business within seven calendar days at approximately the value ascribed to it by the fund.
2.
A Fund may not purchase securities on margin, except for use of short-term credit necessary for clearance of purchases and sales of portfolio securities, but it may make margin deposits in connection with covered transactions in options, futures, options on futures and short positions. For purposes of
97

this restriction, the posting of margin deposits or other forms of collateral in connection with swap agreements is not considered purchasing securities on margin.

4.
Each of the PIMCO Global Bond Opportunities Fund (U.S. Dollar-Hedged) and the PIMCO Total Return Fund IV may not borrow money in excess of 10% of the value (taken at the lower of cost or current value) of the Fund’s total assets (not including the amount borrowed) at the time the borrowing is made, and then only from banks as a temporary measure to facilitate the meeting of redemption requests (not for leverage) which might otherwise require the untimely disposition of portfolio investments or for extraordinary or emergency purposes (Such borrowings will be repaid before any additional investments are purchased.); or pledge, hypothecate, mortgage or otherwise encumber its assets in excess of 10% of the Fund’s total assets (taken at cost) and then only to secure borrowings permitted above (The deposit of securities or cash or cash equivalents in escrow in connection with the writing of covered call or put options, respectively, is not deemed to be pledges or other encumbrances. For the purpose of this restriction, collateral arrangements with respect to the writing of options, futures contracts, options on futures contracts, and collateral arrangements with respect to initial and variation margin are not deemed to be a pledge of assets and neither such arrangements nor the purchase or sale of futures or related options are deemed to be the issuance of a senior security).

For purposes of these policies, the term “assets,” as defined in Rule 35d-1 under the 1940 Act, means net assets plus the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes. In addition, for purposes of these policies, investments may be represented by forwards or derivatives such as options, futures contracts, or swap agreements. Further, for purposes of these policies, a Fund may “look through” a repurchase agreement to the collateral underlying the agreement (typically, government securities), and apply the repurchase agreement toward the 80% investment requirement based on the type of securities comprising its collateral. For purposes of these policies, the term “convertible investments” includes synthetic convertible securities created by PIMCO and those created by other parties such as investment banks.
In addition, for purposes of a Fund’s investment policy adopted pursuant to Rule 35d-1 under the 1940 Act, the Fund will count derivative instruments at market value. Further, for purposes of the investment policy adopted pursuant to Rule 35d-1 under the 1940 Act for Non-fundamental Investment Policy 4 above, each of the PIMCO High Yield Fund and PIMCO High Yield Spectrum Fund will include securities comprising its benchmark index as “high yield investments” even if the highest rating of the security is an investment grade rating.
For purposes of other investment policies and restrictions, the Funds may value derivative instruments at market value, notional value or full exposure value (i.e., the sum of the notional amount for the contract plus the market value), or any combination of the foregoing (e.g., notional value for purposes of calculating the numerator and market value for purposes of calculating the denominator for compliance with a particular policy or restriction). For example, a Fund may value credit default swaps at full exposure value for purposes of the Fund’s credit quality guidelines because such value in general better reflects the Fund’s actual economic exposure during the term of the credit default swap agreement. As a result, a Fund may, at times, have notional exposure to an asset class (before netting) that is greater or less than the stated limit or restriction noted in the Fund’s prospectus. In this context, both the notional amount and the market value may be positive or negative depending on whether the Fund is selling or buying protection through the credit default swap. The manner in which certain securities or other instruments are valued by the Funds for purposes of applying investment policies and restrictions may differ from the manner in which those investments are valued by other types of investors.
Currency Hedging.     The Trust has adopted a non-fundamental policy pursuant to which each Fund that may invest in securities denominated in foreign currencies, except for the PIMCO Climate Bond Fund, PIMCO CommoditiesPLUS® Strategy Fund, PIMCO Diversified Income Fund, PIMCO Dynamic Bond Fund, PIMCO Emerging Markets Local Currency and Bond Fund, PIMCO Emerging Markets Bond Fund, PIMCO Emerging

In addition, each of these Funds will normally limit its exposure (from non-U.S. dollar-denominated securities or currencies) to each non-U.S. currency to 10% of its total assets. Further, each of these Funds will normally limit its aggregate U.S. dollar exposure from transactions or instruments that reference the relative return of a non-U.S. currency or currencies as compared to the U.S. dollar to 20% of its total assets.
With respect to the AR Bond Alpha Strategy (as defined in the Prospectus), each of the PIMCO RAE PLUS EMG Fund, PIMCO RAE PLUS International Fund and PIMCO RAE Worldwide Long/Short PLUS Fund will normally limit its foreign currency exposure (from non-U.S. dollar-denominated securities or currencies) to 35% of its total assets. In addition, with respect to the AR Bond Alpha Strategy, each of these Funds will normally limit its exposure (from non-U.S. dollar-denominated securities or currencies) to each non-U.S. currency to 10% of its total assets. Further, with respect to the AR Bond Alpha Strategy, each of these Funds will normally limit its aggregate U.S. dollar exposure from transactions or instruments that reference the relative return of a non-U.S. currency or currencies as compared to the U.S. dollar to 20% of its total assets.
With respect to its fixed income investments, each of the PIMCO StocksPLUS® International Fund (Unhedged), PIMCO StocksPLUS® International Fund (U.S. Dollar-Hedged) and PIMCO StocksPLUS® Small Fund will normally limit its foreign currency exposure (from non-U.S. dollar-denominated securities or currencies) to 35% of its total assets. In addition, with respect to its fixed income investments, each of these Funds will normally limit its exposure (from non-U.S. dollar-denominated securities or currencies) to each non-U.S. currency to 10% of its total assets. Further, with respect to its fixed income investments, each of these Funds will normally limit its aggregate U.S. dollar exposure from transactions or instruments that reference the relative return of a non-U.S. currency or currencies as compared to the U.S. dollar to 20% of its total assets.
Each of the PIMCO Inflation Response Multi-Asset Fund and PIMCO Strategic Bond Fund will normally limit its foreign currency exposure (from non-U.S. dollar-denominated securities or currencies) to 25% of its total assets.
Each of the PIMCO Preferred and Capital Securities Fund, PIMCO CommoditiesPLUS® Strategy Fund, PIMCO Income Fund, PIMCO ESG Income Fund and PIMCO Low Duration Income Fund will normally limit its foreign currency exposure (from non-U.S. dollar-denominated securities or currencies) to 10% of its total assets.
The PIMCO High Yield Spectrum Fund will normally limit its currency exposure to within 10% (plus or minus) of the Fund’s benchmark index.
100

The PIMCO Low Duration Credit Fund will normally limit its foreign currency exposure (from non-U.S. dollar-denominated securities or currencies) to 5% of its total assets.
The PIMCO Total Return Fund IV will normally limit its foreign currency exposure (from non-U.S. dollar- denominated securities or currencies) to 5% of its total assets.
There can be no assurance that currency hedging techniques will be successful. All percentage limitations described in this paragraph are considered Elective Investment Restrictions (as defined below) for purposes of a Fund’s acquisition through a Voluntary Action (as defined below).
Under the 1940 Act, a “senior security” does not include any promissory note or evidence of indebtedness where such loan is for temporary purposes only and in an amount not exceeding 5% of the value of the total assets of the issuer at the time the loan is made. A loan is presumed to be for temporary purposes if it is repaid within sixty days and is not extended or renewed. To the extent that borrowings for temporary administrative purposes exceed 5% of the total assets of a Fund (except for the PIMCO Global Bond Opportunities Fund (U.S. Dollar-Hedged)), such excess shall be subject to the 300% asset coverage requirement.
As noted above, a Fund may enter into certain transactions that can be viewed as constituting a form of borrowing or financing transaction by the Fund. In accordance with current federal securities laws, rules and staff positions, in such event, a Fund covers its commitment under such transactions by segregating or “earmarking” assets. In addition to covering such commitments in the manner described above, with respect to forwards, futures contracts, options and swaps that are required to cash settle (i.e., where physical delivery of the underlying reference asset is not permitted, including when a Fund has entered into a contractual arrangement with a third party FCM or counterparty that requires cash settlement), a Fund is permitted to segregate or “earmark” liquid assets equal to a Fund’s daily mark-to-market net obligation under the instrument, if any, rather than the instrument’s full notional value (i.e., the market value of the reference asset underlying the forward or derivative). By doing so, such instruments will not be considered a “senior security” by the Fund. By segregating or earmarking liquid assets equal to only its net mark-to-market obligation under forwards or derivatives that are required to cash settle, a Fund will have the ability to utilize such instruments to a greater extent than if a Fund were required to segregate or earmark liquid assets equal to the full notional value of the instrument.
Pursuant to policies adopted by the Funds’ Board of Trustees, purchased OTC options and the assets used as cover for OTC options written by a Fund may be treated as liquid. Please refer to “Illiquid Investments” above for further discussion of regulatory considerations and constraints relating to investment liquidity. It is noted that, while regulatory guidance indicates that assets used for cover may be considered “encumbered,” the liquidity classification of assets used for cover is not affected by their status as being used for cover.
The Funds interpret their policy with respect to concentration in a particular industry under Fundamental Investment Restriction 1, above, to apply to direct investments in the securities of issuers in a particular industry, and to any other investments, such as certain derivatives, that may properly be assigned to a particular industry, as defined by the Trust. For purposes of this restriction, a foreign government is considered to be an industry. Currency positions are not considered to be an investment in a foreign government for industry concentration purposes. Mortgage-backed securities that are issued or guaranteed by the U.S. Government, its agencies or instrumentalities are not subject to the Funds’ industry concentration restrictions, by virtue of the exclusion from that test available to all U.S. Government securities. Similarly, Municipal Bonds issued by states, municipalities and other political subdivisions, agencies, authorities and instrumentalities of states and multi-state agencies and authorities are not subject to the Funds’ industry concentration restrictions. With respect to investments in other investment companies by the PIMCO All Asset Fund, PIMCO All Asset All Authority Fund, PIMCO Emerging Markets Full Spectrum Bond Fund, PIMCO Global Core Asset Allocation Fund and PIMCO Inflation Response Multi-Asset Fund, the Trust takes the position that investments in other investment companies are not considered an investment in a particular industry, and portfolio securities held by other investment companies in which these Funds may invest are not considered to be securities purchased by these Funds for purposes of the Fund’s policy on concentration.
A Fund may invest in certain derivative instruments which, while representing a relatively small amount of the Fund’s net assets, provide a greater amount of economic exposure to a particular industry. To the extent that a Fund obtains economic exposure to a particular industry in this manner, it may be subject to similar risks of concentration in that industry as if it had invested in the securities of issuers in that industry directly.
101

For purposes of applying the Funds’ policy with respect to diversification under Fundamental Investment Restriction 2, above, traditional bond insurance on a security will not be treated as a separate security, and the insurer will not be treated as a separate issuer of the security. Therefore, the Funds’ policy with respect to diversification does not limit the percentage of a Fund’s assets that may be invested in securities insured by a single bond insurer.
Under the Funds’ policy under Fundamental Investment Restriction 3, above, where a Fund purchases a loan or other security secured by real estate or interests therein, in the event of a subsequent default, foreclosure, or similar event, the Fund may take possession of and hold the underlying real estate in accordance with its rights under the initial security and subsequently sell or otherwise dispose of such real estate.
The Funds interpret their policy with respect to the purchase and sale of commodities or commodities contracts under Fundamental Investment Restriction 4 above to permit the Funds, subject to each Fund’s investment objectives and general investment policies (as stated in the Prospectuses and elsewhere in this Statement of Additional Information), to invest in commodity futures contracts and options thereon, commodity-related swap agreements, hybrid instruments, and other commodity-related derivative instruments and to permit the PIMCO CommoditiesPLUS® Strategy, PIMCO Inflation Response Multi-Asset and PIMCO TRENDS Managed Futures Strategy Funds to make direct investments in commodities.
The Funds interpret their policies with respect to borrowing and lending to permit such activities as may be lawful for the Funds, to the full extent permitted by the 1940 Act or by exemption from the provisions therefrom pursuant to exemptive order of the SEC. To the extent permitted by the 1940 Act and the rules thereunder, the Funds may enter into transactions with respect to the investment of daily cash balances of the Funds in shares of PIMCO-sponsored money market and/or short-term bond funds. Pursuant to an exemptive order issued by the SEC, the Funds, along with other registered investment companies in the PIMCO Funds family may engage in interfund lending transactions, to the extent such participation is consistent with each Fund’s investment objective and investment policies. As part of the interfund lending program, certain PIMCO-sponsored money market and short-term bond funds will have the ability to lend to certain other PIMCO-sponsored non-money market and non-short-term bond funds, as detailed in the exemptive relief (the “Interfund Lending Program”).
Any loan made through the Interfund Lending Program would be preferable to borrowing from a bank from the perspective of a borrowing fund and more beneficial than an alternative short-term investment from the perspective of a lending fund. The term of an interfund loan is limited to the time required to receive payment for securities sold, but in no event more than seven days. In addition, an interfund loan is callable with one business day’s notice. All loans are for temporary cash management or emergency purposes and the interest rates to be charged will be the average of the overnight repurchase agreement rate and the bank loan rate.
The limitations detailed above and the other conditions of the SEC exemptive order permitting interfund lending are designed to minimize the risks associated with interfund lending for both the lending fund and the borrowing fund. No fund may borrow more than the amount permitted by its investment limitations and all loans are subject to numerous conditions designed to ensure fair and equitable treatment of all participating funds. The interfund lending facility is subject to the oversight and periodic review of the Board.
No borrowing or lending activity is without risk. When a fund borrows money from another fund, there is a risk that the interfund loan could be called on one day’s notice or not renewed, in which case the fund may have to borrow from a bank at higher rates if an interfund loan is not available. If a borrowing fund is unable to repay the loan when due, a delay in repayment to the lending fund could result in a lost investment opportunity for the lending fund.
Unless otherwise indicated, all limitations applicable to Fund investments (as stated above and elsewhere in this Statement of Additional Information or in the Prospectuses) apply only at the time of investment. Any subsequent change in a rating assigned by any rating service to a security (or, if unrated, deemed to be of comparable quality), or change in the percentage of Fund assets invested in certain securities or other instruments, or change in the average duration of a Fund’s investment portfolio, resulting from market fluctuations or other changes in a Fund’s total assets will not require a Fund to dispose of an investment. Other than with respect to securities comprising the benchmark index for each of the PIMCO High Yield Fund and PIMCO High Yield Spectrum Fund, in the event that ratings services assign different ratings to the same security, PIMCO will use the highest rating as the credit rating for that security. With respect to the PIMCO Government Money Market Fund, a First Tier Security (as defined in Rule 2a-7 under the 1940 Act) rated in the highest short-term category by three or more rating agencies at the time of purchase
102

that subsequently receives a rating below the highest rating category from one of those rating agencies or a different rating agency may continue to be considered a First Tier Security.
From time to time, a Fund may voluntarily participate in actions (for example, rights offerings, conversion privileges, exchange offers, credit event settlements, etc.) where the issuer or counterparty offers securities or instruments to holders or counterparties, such as a Fund, and the acquisition is determined to be beneficial to Fund shareholders (“Voluntary Action”). Notwithstanding any percentage investment limitation listed under this “Investment Restrictions” section or any percentage investment limitation of the 1940 Act or rules thereunder, if a Fund has the opportunity to acquire a permitted security or instrument through a Voluntary Action, and the Fund will exceed a percentage investment limitation following the acquisition, it will not constitute a violation if, prior to the receipt of the securities or instruments and after announcement of the offering, the Fund sells an offsetting amount of assets that are subject to the investment limitation in question at least equal to the value of the securities or instruments to be acquired.
Unless otherwise indicated, all percentage limitations on Fund investments (as stated throughout this Statement of Additional Information or in the Prospectuses) that are not: (i) specifically included in this “Investment Restrictions” section; or (ii) imposed by the 1940 Act, rules thereunder, the Internal Revenue Code or related regulations (the “Elective Investment Restrictions”), will apply only at the time of investment unless the acquisition is a Voluntary Action. In addition and notwithstanding the foregoing, for purposes of this policy, certain Non-Fundamental Investment Restrictions, as noted above, are also considered Elective Investment Restrictions. The percentage limitations and absolute prohibitions with respect to Elective Investment Restrictions are not applicable to a Fund’s acquisition of securities or instruments through a Voluntary Action. Certain percentage limitations or absolute prohibitions stated in certain Elective Investment Restrictions by their terms apply only with respect to specific securities or instruments as opposed to asset classes or economic exposures represented by such securities or instruments; for purposes of applying such limitations or prohibitions, the Funds may not count investments in derivatives or other instruments that are not the specific securities or instruments limited or prohibited by the express terms of the Elective Investment Restriction. In such cases, a Fund may obtain greater economic exposure to asset classes represented by such specific securities or instruments because such exposure is not restricted by the express terms of the Elective Investment Restriction.
A Fund may engage in roll-timing strategies where the Fund seeks to extend the expiration or maturity of a position, such as a forward contract, futures contract or to-be-announced (“TBA”) transaction, on an underlying asset by closing out the position before expiration and contemporaneously opening a new position with respect to the same underlying asset that has substantially similar terms except for a later expiration date. Such “rolls” enable the Fund to maintain continuous investment exposure to an underlying asset beyond the expiration of the initial position without delivery of the underlying asset. Similarly, as certain standardized swap agreements transition from over-the-counter trading to mandatory exchange-trading and clearing due to the implementation of Dodd-Frank Act regulatory requirements, a Fund may “roll” an existing over-the-counter swap agreement by closing out the position before expiration and contemporaneously entering into a new exchange-traded and cleared swap agreement on the same underlying asset with substantially similar terms except for a later expiration date. These types of new positions opened contemporaneous with the closing of an existing position on the same underlying asset with substantially similar terms are collectively referred to as “Roll Transactions.” Elective Investment Restrictions (defined in the preceding paragraph), which normally apply at the time of investment, do not apply to Roll Transactions (although Elective Investment Restrictions will apply to the Fund’s entry into the initial position). In addition and notwithstanding the foregoing, for purposes of this policy, those Non-Fundamental Investment Restrictions that are considered Elective Investment Restrictions for purposes of the policy on Voluntary Actions (described in the preceding paragraph) are also Elective Investment Restrictions for purposes of this policy on Roll Transactions. The Funds will test for compliance with Elective Investment Restrictions at the time of a Fund’s initial entry into a position, but the percentage limitations and absolute prohibitions set forth in the Elective Investment Restrictions are not applicable to a Fund’s subsequent acquisition of securities or instruments through a Roll Transaction.
Recently finalized Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) rules include mandatory margin requirements for the TBA market that require the Funds to post collateral in connection with their TBA transactions. There is no similar requirement applicable to the Funds’ TBA counterparties. The required collateralization of TBA trades could increase the cost of TBA transactions to the Funds and impose added operational complexity.
103

Certain of the Funds have investment policies, limitations, or practices that are applicable “normally” or under “normal circumstances” or “normal market conditions” (as stated above and elsewhere in this Statement of Additional Information or in the Prospectuses). Pursuant to the discretion of PIMCO and a Fund’s sub-adviser, if any, these investment policies, limitations, or practices may not apply during periods of abnormal purchase or redemption activity or during periods of unusual or adverse market, economic, political or other conditions. Such market, economic or political conditions may include periods of abnormal or heightened market volatility, strained credit and/or liquidity conditions, or increased governmental intervention in the markets or industries. During such periods, a Fund may not invest according to its principal investment strategies or in the manner in which its name may suggest, and may be subject to different and/or heightened risks. It is possible that such unusual or adverse conditions may continue for extended periods of time.
Management Of The Trust
Trustees and Officers
The business of the Trust is managed under the direction of the Trust’s Board of Trustees. Subject to the provisions of the Trust’s Declaration of Trust, its By-Laws and Massachusetts law, the Board of Trustees (the “Board”) has all powers necessary and convenient to carry out this responsibility, including the election and removal of the Trust’s officers.
Leadership Structure and Risk Oversight Function
The Board is currently composed of eight Trustees, six of whom are not “interested persons” of the Trust (as that term is defined by Section 2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act) (“Independent Trustees”). The Trustees meet periodically throughout the year to discuss and consider matters concerning the Trust and to oversee the Trust’s activities, including its investment performance, compliance program and risks associated with its activities.
Peter G. Strelow, a Managing Director and Co-Chief Operating Officer of PIMCO, and therefore an “interested person” of the Trust, serves as Chairman of the Board. The Board has established four standing committees to facilitate the Trustees’ oversight of the management of the Trust: an Audit Committee, a Valuation Oversight Committee, an Investment Performance Committee and a Governance and Nominating Committee. The scope of each Committee’s responsibilities is discussed in greater detail below. Ronald C. Parker is the Lead Independent Trustee of the Trust. The Lead Independent Trustee’s duties and responsibilities include serving as chair of, and leading and facilitating discussions at, executive sessions of the Independent Trustees and acting as chair at Board or Committee meetings in the absence of the Chairman of the Board or other currently-appointed chair; coordinating with the Independent Trustees and the Trust’s management to discuss recommendations for Board meeting agendas; reviewing, and providing input to the Trust’s management as appropriate regarding, whether agenda objectives are being met; and acting generally as spokesperson for the Independent Trustees on external matters, provided that if another Independent Trustee is deemed to be more qualified or better able to address a particular matter, such other Independent Trustee shall serve as spokesperson in connection with such matter. In addition, the Chairs of the Audit Committee, Investment Performance Committee, Governance and Nominating Committee and the Valuation Oversight Committee, each of whom is an Independent Trustee, act as liaisons between the Independent Trustees and the Trust’s management between Board meetings and, with management, are involved in the preparation of agendas for Board and Committee meetings, as applicable.
The Board believes that, as Chairman, Mr. Strelow provides skilled executive leadership to the Trust. Further, the Board believes that an interested Chairman performs an essential liaison function between the Trust and PIMCO, its investment adviser and administrator. The Board believes that its governance structure allows all of the Independent Trustees to participate in the full range of the Board’s oversight responsibilities. The Board reviews its structure regularly as part of its annual self-evaluation. The Board has determined that its leadership structure is appropriate in light of the characteristics and circumstances of the Trust because it allocates areas of responsibility among the Committees and the Board in a manner that enhances effective oversight. The Board considered, among other things, the role of PIMCO in the day-to-day management of the Trust’s affairs; the extent to which the work of the Board is conducted through the Committees; the number of portfolios that comprise the Trust and other trusts in the fund complex overseen by members of the Board; the variety of asset classes those portfolios include; the net assets of each Fund, the Trust and the fund complex; and the management, distribution and other service arrangements of each Fund, the Trust and the fund complex.
104

In its oversight role, the Board has adopted, and periodically reviews, policies and procedures designed to address risks associated with the Trust’s activities. In addition, PIMCO and the Trust’s other service providers have adopted policies, processes and procedures to identify, assess and manage risks associated with the Trust’s activities. The Trust’s senior officers, including, but not limited to, the Chief Compliance Officer (“CCO”) and Treasurer, PIMCO portfolio management personnel and other senior personnel of PIMCO, the Trust’s independent registered public accounting firm (the “independent auditors”) and personnel from the Trust’s third-party service providers make periodic reports to the Board and its Committees with respect to a variety of matters, including matters relating to risk management.

Standing Committees
Except where otherwise noted, the Committee membership for each Committee and other information below is listed as of March 31, 2022. However, the members of any Committee may be changed by the Board of Trustees from time to time.
The Trust has a standing Audit Committee that consists of all of the Independent Trustees (Mses. Dunbar and Hubbard and Messrs. Borst, Kennedy, McCarthy (Chair) and Parker). The Audit Committee’s responsibilities include, but are not limited to, (i) assisting the Board’s oversight of the integrity of the Trust’s financial statements, the Trust’s compliance with legal and regulatory requirements, the qualifications and independence of the Trust’s independent auditors, and the performance of such firm; (ii) overseeing the Trust’s accounting and financial reporting policies and practices, its internal controls and, as appropriate, the internal controls of certain service providers; (iii) overseeing the quality and objectivity of the Trust’s financial statements and the independent audit thereof; and (iv) acting a liaison between the Trust’s independent auditors and the full Board. The Audit Committee also reviews both the audit and non-audit work of the Trust’s independent auditors, submits a recommendation to the Board of Trustees as to the selection of an independent auditor, and reviews generally the maintenance of the Trust’s records and the safekeeping arrangement of the Trust’s custodian. During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2022, there were four meetings of the Audit Committee.
The Board of Trustees has formed a Valuation Oversight Committee who has been delegated responsibility by the Board for overseeing determination of the fair value of each Fund’s portfolio securities and other assets on behalf of the Board in accordance with the Fund’s valuation procedures. The Valuation Oversight Committee reviews and approves procedures for the fair valuation of each Fund’s portfolio securities and periodically reviews information from PIMCO regarding fair value determinations made pursuant to Board-approved procedures, and makes related recommendations to the full Board and assists the full Board in resolving particular fair valuation and other valuation matters. In certain circumstances as specified in the Trust’s valuation policies, the Valuation Oversight Committee may also determine the fair value of portfolio holdings after consideration of all relevant factors, which determinations shall
113

be reported to the full Board of Trustees. The Valuation Oversight Committee consists of Mses. Dunbar, Hubbard (Chair) and Stafford and Messrs. Borst, Kennedy, McCarthy, Parker and Strelow. During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2022, there were four meetings of the Valuation Oversight Committee.
The Trust has also formed an Investment Performance Committee, which meets periodically to review and assess the investment performance of each Fund. The Investment Performance Committee meets with and receives periodic reports from representatives of the investment adviser or investment manager regarding each Fund’s investment objective, strategies, performance and outlook. The Investment Performance Committee consists of Mses. Dunbar (Chair), Hubbard and Stafford and Messrs. Borst, Kennedy, McCarthy, Parker, and Strelow. During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2022, there were three meetings of the Investment Performance Committee.
The Trust also has a Governance and Nominating Committee, which is responsible, among other things, for the promotion of sound governance practices and for the selection and nomination of candidates to serve as Trustees of the Trust. Only Independent Trustees may serve as members of the Governance and Nominating Committee, and the Governance and Nominating Committee currently consists of Messrs. Borst, Kennedy (Chair), McCarthy and Parker and Mses. Dunbar and Hubbard. Prior to November 6, 2018, the Governance and Nominating Committee comprised all of the Trustees, but only members of the Committee who were Independent Trustees voted on the nomination of Independent Trustee candidates.
The Governance and Nominating Committee has established a policy, effective February 13, 2019, whereby the Chairman of the Board will serve for a term that is not longer than five years from the date of appointment. Upon a vote of the majority of the Trustees, such Chairman may serve up to two additional consecutive five-year terms.
The Governance and Nominating Committee has a policy in place for considering trustee candidates recommended by shareholders. The Governance and Nominating Committee may consider potential trustee candidates recommended by shareholders provided that the proposed candidates: (i) satisfy any minimum qualifications of the Trust for its Trustees and (ii) are not “interested persons” of the Trust or the investment adviser within the meaning of the 1940 Act. The Governance and Nominating Committee will not consider submissions in which the Nominating Shareholder is the trustee candidate.
Any shareholder (a “Nominating Shareholder”) submitting a proposed trustee candidate must continuously own as of record, or beneficially through a financial intermediary, shares of the Trust having a net asset value of not less than $25,000 during the two-year period prior to submitting the proposed trustee candidate. Each of the securities used for purposes of calculating this ownership must have been held continuously for at least two years as of the date of the nomination. In addition, such securities must continue to be held through the date of the special meeting of shareholders to elect trustees.
All trustee candidate submissions by Nominating Shareholders must be received by each Fund by the deadline for submission of any shareholder proposals which would be included in each Fund’s proxy statement for the next special meeting of shareholders of each Fund.
Nominating Shareholders must substantiate compliance with these requirements at the time of submitting their proposed trustee nominee to the attention of the Trust’s Secretary. Notice to the Trust’s Secretary should be provided in accordance with the deadline specified above and include, (i) the Nominating Shareholder’s contact information; (ii) the number of Fund shares which are owned of record and beneficially by the Nominating Shareholder and the length of time which such shares have been so owned by the Nominating Shareholder; (iii) a description of all arrangements and understandings between the Nominating Shareholder and any other person or persons (naming such person or persons) pursuant to which the submission is being made and a description of the relationship, if any, between the Nominating Shareholder and the trustee candidate; (iv) the trustee candidate’s contact information, age, date of birth and the number of Fund shares owned by the trustee candidate; (v) all information regarding the trustee candidate’s qualifications for service on the Board of Trustees as well as any information regarding the trustee candidate that would be required to be disclosed in solicitations of proxies for elections of trustees required by Regulation 14A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “1934 Act”), had the trustee candidate been nominated by the Board; (vi) whether the Nominating Shareholder believes the trustee candidate would or would not be an “interested person” of each Fund, as defined in the 1940 Act and a description of the basis for such belief; and (vii) a notarized letter executed by the trustee candidate, stating his or her intention to serve as a nominee and be named in each Fund’s proxy statement, if nominated by the Board of Trustees, and to be named as a trustee if so elected.
114

During the fiscal year ended March 31, 2022, there were three meetings of the Governance and Nominating Committee.
Trustee Retirement Policy
The Board has in place a retirement policy for all Trustees who are not “interested persons” of the Trust, as that term is defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act, that seeks to balance the benefits of the experience and institutional memory of existing Trustees against the need for fresh perspectives, and to enhance the overall effectiveness of the Board. No Independent Trustee shall continue service as a Trustee beyond the first Board meeting occurring after his or her 76th birthday, provided that this policy may be waived or modified from time to time at the discretion of the Governance and Nominating Committee. The continued appropriateness of the retirement policy is reviewed from time to time by the Governance and Nominating Committee.

Investment Adviser
PIMCO, a Delaware limited liability company, serves as investment adviser to the Funds pursuant to an investment advisory contract (“Advisory Contract”) between PIMCO and the Trust. PIMCO also serves as investment adviser to the Subsidiaries. PIMCO is located at 650 Newport Center Drive, Newport Beach, California 92660. As of June 30, 2022, PIMCO had approximately $1.82 trillion of assets under management and $1.43 trillion of third-party assets under management.
PIMCO is a majority owned subsidiary of Allianz Asset Management of America L.P. (“Allianz Asset Management”) with minority interests held by Allianz Asset Management of America LLC, by Allianz Asset Management U.S. Holding II LLC, each a Delaware limited liability company, and by certain current and former officers of PIMCO. Allianz Asset Management was organized as a limited partnership under Delaware law in 1987. Through various holding company structures, Allianz Asset Management is majority owned by Allianz SE. Allianz SE is a European based, multinational insurance and financial services holding company and a publicly traded German company.
The general partner of Allianz Asset Management has substantially delegated its management and control of Allianz Asset Management to a Management Board. The Management Board of Allianz Asset Management is comprised of Tucker Fitzpatrick.
As of the date of this Statement of Additional Information, there are currently no significant institutional shareholders of Allianz SE.
PIMCO has engaged Research Affiliates, LLC (“Research Affiliates”), a California limited liability company, to serve as asset allocation sub-adviser to the PIMCO All Asset Fund and PIMCO All Asset All Authority Fund pursuant to separate asset allocation sub-advisory agreements (“Asset Allocation Sub-Advisory Agreements”) and as sub-adviser to the PIMCO RAE Fundamental Advantage PLUS, PIMCO RAE PLUS, PIMCO RAE PLUS EMG,
115

PIMCO RAE PLUS International, PIMCO RAE PLUS Small and  PIMCO RAE Worldwide Long/Short PLUS Funds, pursuant to a separate sub-advisory agreement (“RAFI™ Sub-Advisory Agreement”). Research Affiliates was organized in March 2002 and is located at 620 Newport Center Drive, Suite 900, Newport Beach, California, 92660.
Absent an SEC exemption or other regulatory relief, the Funds generally are precluded from effecting principal transactions with brokers that are deemed to be affiliated persons of the Funds, the Adviser or the Sub-Adviser, and the Funds' ability to purchase securities being underwritten by an affiliated broker or a syndicate including an affiliated broker is subject to restrictions. Similarly, the Funds' ability to utilize the affiliated brokers for agency transactions is subject to the restrictions of Rule 17e-1 under the 1940 Act. PIMCO does not believe that the restrictions on transactions with the affiliated brokers described above will materially adversely affect its ability to provide services to the Funds, the Funds' ability to take advantage of market opportunities, or the Funds' overall performance.
Legal Proceedings. On May 17, 2022, Allianz Global Investors U.S. LLC (“AGI U.S.”) pleaded guilty in connection with the proceeding United States of America v. Allianz Global Investors U.S. LLC . AGI U.S. is an indirect subsidiary of Allianz SE. The conduct resulting in the matter described above occurred entirely within AGI U.S. and did not involve PIMCO or the Distributor, or any personnel of PIMCO or the Distributor. Nevertheless, because of the disqualifying conduct of AGI U.S., their affiliate, PIMCO would have been disqualified from serving as the investment adviser, and the Distributor would have been disqualified from serving as the principal underwriter, to the Funds in the absence of SEC exemptive relief. PIMCO and the Distributor have received exemptive relief from the SEC to permit them to continue serving as investment adviser and principal underwriter for U.S.-registered investment companies, including the Funds.
Advisory Agreements
The Funds pay for the advisory and supervisory and administrative services they require under what is essentially an all-in fee structure.
PIMCO is responsible for making investment decisions and placing orders for the purchase and sale of the Trust’s investments directly with the issuers or with brokers or dealers selected by it in its discretion. See “Portfolio Transactions and Brokerage,” below. PIMCO also furnishes to the Board of Trustees, which has overall responsibility for the business and affairs of the Trust, periodic reports on the investment performance of each Fund.
Under the terms of the Advisory Contract, PIMCO is obligated to manage the Funds in accordance with applicable laws and regulations. The investment advisory services of PIMCO to the Trust are not exclusive under the terms of the Advisory Contract. PIMCO is free to, and does, render investment advisory services to others.
Following the expiration of the two year period commencing with the effectiveness of the Advisory Contract, it will continue in effect on a yearly basis provided such continuance is approved annually: (i) by the holders of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Trust or by the Board of Trustees; and (ii) by a majority of the independent Trustees. The Advisory Contract may be terminated without penalty by vote of the Trustees or the shareholders of the Trust, or by PIMCO, on 60 days’ written notice by either party to the contract and will terminate automatically if assigned.
As discussed in “Investment Objectives and Policies” above, the PIMCO Preferred and Capital Securities Fund may pursue its investment objective by investing in the CSF Subsidiary, the PIMCO CommoditiesPLUS® Strategy Fund may pursue its investment objective by investing in the CPS Subsidiary, the PIMCO CommodityRealReturn Strategy Fund® may pursue its investment objective by investing in the CRRS Subsidiary, the PIMCO Global Core Asset Allocation Fund may pursue its investment objective by investing in the GCAA Subsidiary, the PIMCO Inflation Response Multi-Asset Fund may pursue its investment objective by investing in the IRMA Subsidiary and the PIMCO TRENDS Managed Futures Strategy Fund may pursue its investment objective by investing in the MF Subsidiary. The Subsidiaries have each entered into a separate contract with PIMCO whereby PIMCO provides investment advisory and other services to the Subsidiaries (the “Subsidiary Advisory Contracts”). In consideration of these services, each Subsidiary pays PIMCO a management fee and an administrative services fee at the annual rates of 0.49% and 0.20%, respectively. PIMCO has contractually agreed to waive the advisory fee and the supervisory and administrative fee it receives from the PIMCO Preferred and Capital Securities Fund in an amount equal to the management fee and administrative services fee, respectively, paid to PIMCO by the CSF Subsidiary. This waiver may not be terminated by PIMCO, and will remain in effect for as long as PIMCO’s contract with the CSF Subsidiary is in place. PIMCO has
116

PIMCO has contractually agreed to waive the advisory fee and the supervisory and administrative fee it receives from the PIMCO Global Core Asset Allocation Fund in an amount equal to the management fee and administrative services fee, respectively, paid to PIMCO by the GCAA Subsidiary. This waiver may not be terminated by PIMCO, and will remain in effect for as long as PIMCO’s contract with the GCAA Subsidiary is in place. PIMCO has contractually agreed to waive the advisory fee and the supervisory and administrative fee it receives from the PIMCO Inflation Response Multi-Asset Fund in an amount equal to the management fee and administrative services fee, respectively, paid to PIMCO by the IRMA Subsidiary. This waiver may not be terminated by PIMCO, and will remain in effect for as long as PIMCO’s contract with the IRMA Subsidiary is in place. PIMCO has contractually agreed to waive the advisory fee and the supervisory and administrative fee it receives from the PIMCO TRENDS Managed Futures Strategy Fund in an amount equal to the management fee and administrative services fee, respectively, paid to PIMCO by the MF Subsidiary. This waiver may not be terminated by PIMCO, and will remain in effect for as long as PIMCO’s contract with the MF Subsidiary is in place.
The Subsidiary Advisory Contracts will continue in effect until terminated. The Subsidiary Advisory Contracts are each terminable by either party thereto, without penalty, on 60 days’ prior written notice, and shall terminate automatically in the event: (i) it is “assigned” by PIMCO (as defined in the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended (the “Advisers Act”)); or (ii) the Advisory Contract between the Trust, acting for and on behalf of the PIMCO Preferred and Capital Securities Fund, PIMCO CommoditiesPLUS® Strategy Fund, PIMCO CommodityRealReturn Strategy Fund®, PIMCO Global Core Asset Allocation Fund, PIMCO Inflation Response Multi-Asset Fund and/or PIMCO TRENDS Managed Futures Strategy Fund, as applicable, and PIMCO is terminated.
PIMCO employs Research Affiliates to provide asset allocation services to the PIMCO All Asset Fund and PIMCO All Asset All Authority Fund pursuant to separate Asset Allocation Sub-Advisory Agreements. Under each Asset Allocation Sub-Advisory Agreement, Research Affiliates is responsible for recommending how the assets of the Funds are allocated and reallocated from time to time among the Underlying PIMCO Funds. The Funds indirectly pay a proportionate share of the advisory fees paid to PIMCO by the Underlying PIMCO Funds in which the Funds invest. Research Affiliates is not compensated directly by the PIMCO All Asset Fund or PIMCO All Asset All Authority Fund, but is paid by PIMCO. Under the terms of each Asset Allocation Sub-Advisory Agreement, Research Affiliates is obligated to sub-advise the PIMCO All Asset and PIMCO All Asset All Authority Funds in accordance with applicable laws and regulations.
Each Asset Allocation Sub-Advisory Agreement will continue in effect with respect to the PIMCO All Asset Fund and the PIMCO All Asset All Authority Funds, respectively, for two years from its respective effective date, and thereafter on a yearly basis provided such continuance is approved annually: (i) by the holders of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Trust or by the Board of Trustees; and (ii) by a majority of the independent Trustees. Each Asset Allocation Sub-Advisory Agreement may be terminated without penalty by vote of the Trustees or its shareholders, or by PIMCO, on 60 days’ written notice by either party to the contract and will terminate automatically if assigned. If Research Affiliates ceases to serve as sub-adviser of the Funds, PIMCO will either assume full responsibility therefor, or retain a new asset allocation sub-adviser, subject to the approval of the Board of Trustees and, if required, the Fund’s shareholders.
PIMCO also employs Research Affiliates to provide sub-advisory services to the Funds listed below pursuant to the RAFI™ Sub-Advisory Agreement.

In rendering investment advisory services to the Trust, PIMCO may use the resources of one or more foreign (non-U.S.) affiliates that are not registered under the Advisers Act (the “PIMCO Overseas Affiliates”) to provide portfolio management, research and trading services to the Trust. Under the Memorandums of Understanding (“MOUs”), each of the PIMCO Overseas Affiliates are Participating Affiliates of PIMCO as that term is used in relief granted by the staff of the SEC allowing U.S. registered advisers to use investment advisory and trading resources of unregistered advisory affiliates subject to the regulatory supervision of the registered adviser. Each Participating Affiliate and any of their respective employees who provide services to the Trust are considered under the MOUs to be “associated persons” of PIMCO as that term is defined in the Advisers Act for purposes of PIMCO’s required supervision.

As disclosed in the Funds’ prospectuses, the Funds may invest in certain PIMCO-advised money market funds and/or short-term bond funds (“Central Funds”), to the extent permitted by the 1940 Act, the rules thereunder or exemptive relief therefrom. The Central Funds are registered investment companies created for use solely by the series of registered investment companies advised by PIMCO, in connection with their cash management activities. The Central Funds do not pay an investment advisory fee to PIMCO in return for providing investment advisory services. However, when investing in a Central Fund, each such Fund (“Investing Fund”) has agreed that 0.005% of the advisory fee that such Investing Fund is currently obligated to pay to PIMCO under its investment advisory contract will be designated as compensation for the investment advisory services PIMCO provides to the applicable Central Fund. While the full impact of the Fund of Funds Rule and related regulatory changes is not yet known, these developments could affect the Funds’ ability to utilize the Central Funds. This could adversely impact the Funds’ investment strategies and operations. The Fund of Funds Rule and related regulatory changes are discussed in more detail above in the “Investment Objectives and Policies – Regulatory Risk” section.

PIMCO Proxy Voting Policies and Procedures
PIMCO has adopted written proxy voting policies and procedures (“Proxy Policy”) as required by Rule 206(4)-6 under the Advisers Act. The Trust has adopted the Proxy Policy of PIMCO when voting proxies on behalf of the Funds.
Policy Statement:     The proxy voting policy is intended to foster PIMCO’s compliance with its fiduciary obligations and applicable law; the policy applies to any voting or consent rights with respect to securities held in accounts over which PIMCO has discretionary voting authority. The Policy is designed in a manner reasonably expected to ensure that voting and consent rights are exercised in the best interests of PIMCO’s clients.
Overview:     PIMCO has adopted a written proxy voting policy (“Proxy Policy”) as required by Rule 206(4)-6 under the Advisers Act. Proxies generally describe corporate action-consent rights (relative to fixed income securities) and proxy voting ballots (relative to fixed income or equity securities) as determined by the issuer or custodian. As a general matter, when PIMCO has proxy voting authority, PIMCO has a fiduciary obligation to monitor corporate events and to take appropriate action on client proxies that come to its attention. Each proxy is voted on a case-by-case basis, taking into account relevant facts and circumstances. When considering client proxies, PIMCO may determine not to vote a proxy in limited circumstances.
Equity Securities.     The term “equity securities” means common and preferred stock, including common and preferred shares issued by investment companies; it does not include debt securities convertible into equity securities. PIMCO has retained an Industry Service Provider (“ISP”) to provide research and voting recommendations for proxies relating to equity securities in accordance with the ISP’s guidelines. By following the guidelines of an independent third party, PIMCO seeks to mitigate potential conflicts of interest PIMCO may have with respect to proxies covered by the ISP. PIMCO will follow the recommendations of the ISP unless: (i) the ISP does not provide a voting recommendation; or (ii) a portfolio manager or analyst decides to override the ISP’s voting recommendation. In either such case as described above, the Legal and Compliance department will review the proxy to determine whether an actual or potential conflict of interest exists. When the ISP does not provide a voting recommendation, the relevant portfolio manager or analyst will make a determination regarding how, or if, the proxy will be voted by completing required documentation.
Fixed Income Securities.     Fixed income securities can be processed as proxy ballots or corporate action-consents at the discretion of the issuer/custodian. Voting or consent rights shall not include matters which are primarily decisions to buy or sell investments, such as tender offers, exchange offers, conversions, put options, redemptions, and Dutch auctions. When processed as proxy ballots, the ISP generally does not provide a voting recommendation and its role is limited to election processing and recordkeeping. In such instances, any elections would follow the standard process discussed above for equity securities. When processed as corporate action-consents, the Legal and Compliance department will review all election forms to determine whether an actual or potential conflict of interest exists with respect to the portfolio manager’s or analyst’s consent election. PIMCO’s Credit Research and Portfolio Management Groups are responsible for issuing recommendations on how to vote proxy ballots and corporation action-consents with respect to fixed income securities.
Resolution of Potential and Identified Conflicts of Interest.     The Proxy Policy permits PIMCO to seek to resolve material conflicts of interest by pursuing any one of several courses of action. With respect to material conflicts of interest between PIMCO and a client account, the Proxy Policy permits PIMCO to either: (i) convene a working group to assess and resolve the conflict (the “Proxy Working Group”); or (ii) vote in accordance with protocols previously established by the Proxy Policy, the Proxy Working Group and/or other relevant procedures approved by PIMCO’s Legal and Compliance department or PIMCO’s Conflict Committee with respect to specific types of conflicts.
123

PIMCO will supervise and periodically review its proxy voting activities and the implementation of the Proxy Policy. PIMCO’s Proxy Policy, and information about how PIMCO voted a client’s proxies, is available upon request.
ISP Oversight.  Consistent with its fiduciary obligations, PIMCO will perform periodic due diligence and oversight of ISPs engaged to provide PIMCO with proxy voting research and recommendations. PIMCO’s due diligence and oversight process includes, but is not limited to, the evaluation of: the ISP’s capacity and competency to provide proxy voting research and recommendations including the adequacy and quality of the ISP’s operational infrastructure as it relates to its process for seeking timely input from issuers and its voting methodologies and the ISP’s compliance program.  
Sub-Adviser Engagement.  As an investment manager, PIMCO may exercise its discretion to engage a Sub-Adviser to provide portfolio management services to certain Funds. Consistent with its management responsibilities, a Sub-Adviser will assume the authority for voting proxies on behalf of PIMCO for these Funds. Sub-Advisers may utilize third parties to perform certain services related to their portfolio management responsibilities. As a fiduciary, PIMCO will maintain oversight of the investment management responsibilities (which may include proxy voting) performed by a Sub-Adviser and contracted third parties.
Information about how PIMCO voted a Fund’s proxies for the most recent twelve-month period ended June 30th (Form N-PX) will be available no later than the following August 31st, without charge, upon request, by calling the Funds at 1-800-927-4648, on the Funds' website at http://www.pimco.com and on the SEC’s website at http://www.sec.gov .
Fund Administrator
PIMCO also serves as Administrator to the Funds pursuant to a supervision and administration agreement (as amended and restated from time to time, the “Supervision and Administration Agreement”) with the Trust. Pursuant to the Supervision and Administration Agreement, PIMCO provides the Funds with certain supervisory, administrative and shareholder services necessary for Fund operations and is responsible for the supervision of other Fund service providers, and receives a supervisory and administrative fee in return. PIMCO may in turn use the facilities or assistance of its affiliates to provide certain services under the Supervision and Administration Agreement, on terms agreed between PIMCO and such affiliates. The supervisory and administrative services provided by PIMCO include but are not limited to: (1) shareholder servicing functions, including preparation of shareholder reports and communications, (2) regulatory compliance, such as reports and filings with the SEC and state securities commissions, and (3) general supervision of the operations of the Funds, including coordination of the services performed by the Funds’ transfer agent, custodian, legal counsel, independent registered public accounting firm, and others. PIMCO (or an affiliate of PIMCO) also furnishes the Funds with office space facilities required for conducting the business of the Funds, and pays the compensation of those officers, employees and Trustees of the Trust affiliated with PIMCO. In addition, PIMCO, at its own expense, arranges for the provision of legal, audit, custody, transfer agency, sub-accounting, recordkeeping and other services for the Funds, and is responsible for the costs of registration of the Trust’s shares and the printing of prospectuses and shareholder reports for current shareholders.
Supervisory and Administrative Fee Rates
PIMCO has contractually agreed to provide the foregoing services, and to bear these expenses, at the following rates for each class of each Fund (each expressed as a percentage of the Fund’s average daily net assets attributable to its classes of shares on an annual basis):
Fund

and

Except for the expenses paid by PIMCO, the Trust bears all costs of its operations. The Funds are responsible for: (i) salaries and other compensation of any of the Trust’s executive officers and employees who are not officers, directors, stockholders, or employees of PIMCO or its subsidiaries or affiliates; (ii) taxes and governmental fees; (iii) brokerage fees and commissions and other portfolio transaction expenses; (iv) costs of borrowing money, including interest expenses; (v) fees and expenses of the Trustees who are not “interested persons” of PIMCO or the Trust, and any counsel retained exclusively for their benefit; (vi) extraordinary expenses, including costs of litigation and indemnification expenses; (vii) expenses, such as organizational expenses, which are capitalized in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles; and (viii) any expenses allocated or allocable to a specific class of shares (“class-specific expenses”).
Class-specific expenses include distribution and service fees payable with respect to different classes of shares and supervisory and administrative fees as described above, and may include certain other expenses as permitted by the Trust’s Multi-Class Plan (as amended and restated from time to time, the “Multi-Class Plan”) adopted pursuant to Rule 18f-3 under the 1940 Act and subject to review and approval by the Trustees.
The Supervision and Administration Agreement may be terminated by the Trustees, or by a vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Trust, Fund or Class, as applicable, at any time on 60 days’ written notice. Following the expiration of the one-year period commencing with the effectiveness of the Supervision and Administration Agreement, it may be terminated by PIMCO, also on 60 days’ written notice.
The PIMCO All Asset, PIMCO All Asset All Authority, PIMCO Emerging Markets Full Spectrum Bond, PIMCO Global Core Asset Allocation and PIMCO Inflation Response Multi-Asset Funds indirectly pay a proportionate share of the supervisory and administrative fees paid to PIMCO by the Underlying PIMCO Funds in which they invest.

The Supervision and Administration Agreement is subject to annual approval by the Board of Trustees, including a majority of the Trustees who are not interested persons of the Trust (as that term is defined in the 1940 Act). The current Supervision and Administration Agreement, as supplemented from time to time, was approved by the Board of Trustees, including all of the independent Trustees at a meeting held for such purpose. In approving the Supervision and Administration Agreement, the Trustees determined that: (1) the Supervision and Administration Agreement is in the best interests of the Funds and their shareholders; (2) the services to be performed under the Supervision and Administration Agreement are services required for the operation of the Funds; (3) PIMCO is able to provide, or to procure, services for the Funds which are at least equal in nature and quality to services that could be provided by others; and (4) the fees to be charged pursuant to the Supervision and Administration Agreement are fair and reasonable in light of the usual and customary charges made by others for services of the same nature and quality.
Supervisory and Administrative Fee Payments
The supervisory and administrative fees paid by each Fund that was operational during the fiscal years ended March 31, 2022, 2021 and 2020 (except as otherwise noted below) were as follows:

Other PIMCO Information
PIMCO has created the PIMCO Global Advantage Bond Index® (“GLADI®”), an investment-grade global fixed income benchmark. The PIMCO Global Advantage® Strategy Bond Fund utilizes GLADI® as a benchmark. PIMCO owns the intellectual property rights to GLADI®, and PIMCO has filed a patent application with respect to certain features of GLADI®. PIMCO has retained an unaffiliated leading financial information services company and global index provider to independently administer and calculate GLADI® (the “Calculation Agent”). The Calculation Agent, using a publicly available rules-based methodology, calculates, maintains and disseminates GLADI®.
PIMCO may from time to time develop methodologies for compiling and calculating a benchmark index. PIMCO may license or sell its intellectual property rights in such methodologies to third parties who may use such methodologies to develop a benchmark index. Such third parties may pay to PIMCO a portion of the subscription or licensing fees the third party receives in connection with such indices. PIMCO may pay out of its own resources a fee to such third parties for certain data related to such indices. A Fund may use such an index as the Fund’s primary or secondary benchmark index but would not bear any fees for such use.

Conflicts of Interest
From time to time, potential and actual conflicts of interest may arise between a portfolio manager’s management of the investments of a Fund, on the one hand, and the management of other accounts, on the other. Potential and actual conflicts of interest may also arise as a result of PIMCO’s other business activities and PIMCO’s possession of
143

material non-public information (“MNPI”) about an issuer. Other accounts managed by a portfolio manager might have similar investment objectives or strategies as the Funds, track the same index a Fund tracks or otherwise hold, purchase, or sell securities that are eligible to be held, purchased or sold by the Funds. The other accounts might also have different investment objectives or strategies than the Funds. Potential and actual conflicts of interest may also arise as a result of PIMCO serving as investment adviser to accounts that invest in the Funds. In this case, such conflicts of interest could in theory give rise to incentives for PIMCO to, among other things, vote proxies or redeem shares of a Fund in a manner beneficial to the investing account but detrimental to the Fund. Conversely, PIMCO’s duties to the Funds, as well as regulatory or other limitations applicable to the Funds, may affect the courses of action available to PIMCO-advised accounts (including certain Funds) that invest in the Funds in a manner that is detrimental to such investing accounts. In addition, regulatory restrictions, actual or potential conflicts of interest or other considerations may cause PIMCO to restrict or prohibit participation in certain investments. For example, with respect to the Funds for which Research Affiliates serves as sub-adviser pursuant to the RAFI™ Sub-Advisory Agreement, regulatory concerns, conflicts of interest or other considerations may cause PIMCO, in its oversight role, to restrict or prohibit the purchase of a particular instrument indicated by the relevant RAE® model portfolio, which may cause such Fund to perform differently from the relevant RAE® model portfolio.
Because PIMCO is affiliated with Allianz SE, a large multi-national financial institution (together with its affiliates, “Allianz”), conflicts similar to those described below may occur between the Funds or other accounts managed by PIMCO and PIMCO’s affiliates or accounts managed by those affiliates. Those affiliates (or their clients), which generally operate autonomously from PIMCO, may take actions that are adverse to the Funds or other accounts managed by PIMCO. In many cases, PIMCO will not be in a position to mitigate those actions or address those conflicts, which could adversely affect the performance of the Funds or other accounts managed by PIMCO (each, a “Client,” and collectively, the “Clients”). In addition, because certain Clients are affiliates of PIMCO or have investors who are affiliates or employees of PIMCO, PIMCO may have incentives to resolve conflicts of interest in favor of these Clients over other Clients.
Knowledge and Timing of Fund Trades. A potential conflict of interest may arise as a result of a portfolio manager’s day-to-day management of a Fund. Because of their positions with the Funds, the portfolio managers know the size, timing and possible market impact of a Fund’s trades. It is theoretically possible that the portfolio managers could use this information to the advantage of other accounts they manage and to the possible detriment of a Fund.
Cross Trades. A potential conflict of interest may arise in instances where a Fund buys an instrument from a Client or sells an instrument to a Client (each, a “cross trade”). Such conflicts of interest may arise, among other reasons, as a result of PIMCO representing the interests of both the buying party and the selling party in the cross trade or because the price at which the instrument is bought or sold through a cross trade may not be as favorable as the price that might have been obtained had the trade been executed in the open market. PIMCO effects cross trades when appropriate pursuant to procedures adopted under applicable rules and SEC guidance. Among other things, such procedures require that the cross trade is consistent with the respective investment policies and investment restrictions of both parties and is in the best interests of both the buying and selling accounts.
Investment Opportunities. A potential conflict of interest may arise as a result of a portfolio manager’s management of a number of accounts with varying investment guidelines. Often, an investment opportunity may be suitable for one or more Clients, but may not be available in sufficient quantities for all accounts to participate fully. Similarly, there may be limited opportunity to sell an investment held by a Fund and another Client. PIMCO has adopted policies and procedures reasonably designed to allocate investment opportunities on a fair and equitable basis over time. In addition, regulatory issues applicable to PIMCO or one or more Funds, or other accounts may result in certain Funds, not receiving securities that may otherwise be appropriate for them.
PIMCO seeks to allocate orders across eligible Client accounts with similar investment guidelines and investment styles fairly and equitably, taking into consideration relevant factors including, among others, applicable investment restrictions and guidelines, regulatory requirements, risk tolerances and available cash. As part of PIMCO’s trade allocation process, portions of new fixed income investment opportunities are distributed among Client account categories where the relevant portfolio managers seek to participate in the investment. Those portions are then further allocated among the Client accounts within such categories pursuant to PIMCO’s trade allocation policy. Portfolio managers managing quantitative strategies and specialized accounts, such as those focused on international securities, mortgage-backed securities, bank loans, or other specialized asset classes, will likely receive an increased distribution
144

of new fixed income investment opportunities where the investment involves a quantitative strategy or specialized asset class that matches the investment objective or focus of the Client account category.
Any particular allocation decision among Client accounts may be more or less advantageous to any one Client or group of Clients, and certain allocations will, to the extent consistent with PIMCO’s fiduciary obligations, deviate from a pro rata basis among Clients in order to address for example, differences in legal, tax, regulatory, risk management, concentration, exposure, Client guideline limitations and/or mandate or strategy considerations for the relevant Clients. PIMCO may determine that an investment opportunity or particular purchases or sales are appropriate for one or more Clients, but not appropriate for other Clients, or are appropriate or suitable for, or available to, Clients but in different sizes, terms, or timing than is appropriate or suitable for other Clients. For example, some Clients have higher risk tolerances than other Clients, such as private funds, which, in turn, allows PIMCO to allocate a wider variety and/or greater percentage of certain types of investments (which may or may not outperform other types of investments) to such Clients. Those Clients receiving an increased allocation as a result of the effect of their respective risk tolerance may be Clients that pay higher investment management fees or that pay incentive fees. In addition, certain Client account categories focusing on certain types of investments or asset classes will be given priority in new issue distribution and allocation with respect to the investments or asset classes that are the focus of their investment mandate. Legal, contractual, or regulatory issues and/or related expenses applicable to PIMCO or one or more Clients may result in certain Clients not receiving securities that may otherwise be appropriate for them or may result in PIMCO selling securities out of Client accounts even if it might otherwise be beneficial to continue to hold them. Additional factors that are taken into account in the distribution and allocation of investment opportunities to Client accounts include, without limitation: ability to utilize leverage and risk tolerance of the Client account; the amount of discretion and trade authority given to PIMCO by the Client; availability of other similar investment opportunities; the Client account’s investment horizon and objectives; hedging, cash and liquidity needs of the portfolio; minimum increments and lot sizes; and underlying benchmark factors. Given all of the foregoing factors, the amount, timing, structuring, or terms of an investment by a Client, including a Fund, may differ from, and performance may be lower than, investments and performance of other Clients, including those that may provide greater fees or other compensation (including performance-based fees or allocations) to PIMCO. PIMCO has also adopted additional procedures to complement the general trade allocation policy that are designed to address potential conflicts of interest due to the side-by-side management of the Funds and certain pooled investment vehicles, including investment opportunity allocation issues.
From time to time, PIMCO may take an investment position or action for one or more Clients that may be different from, or inconsistent with, an action or position taken for one or more other Clients having similar or differing investment objectives. These positions and actions may adversely impact, or in some instances may benefit, one or more affected Clients (including Clients that are PIMCO affiliates) in which PIMCO has an interest, or which pays PIMCO higher fees or a performance fee. For example, a Client may buy a security and another Client may establish a short position in that same security. The subsequent short sale may result in a decrease in the price of the security that the other Client holds. Similarly, transactions or investments by one or more Clients may have the effect of diluting or otherwise disadvantaging the values, prices or investment strategies of another Client.
When PIMCO implements for one Client a portfolio decision or strategy ahead of, or contemporaneously with, similar portfolio decisions or strategies of another Client, market impact, liquidity constraints or other factors could result in one or more Clients receiving less favorable trading results, the costs of implementing such portfolio decisions or strategies could be increased or such Clients could otherwise be disadvantaged. On the other hand, potential conflicts may also arise because portfolio decisions regarding a Client may benefit other Clients. For example, the sale of a long position or establishment of a short position for a Client may decrease the price of the same security sold short by (and therefore benefit) other Clients, and the purchase of a security or covering of a short position in a security for a Client may increase the price of the same security held by (and therefore benefit) other Clients.
Under certain circumstances, a Client may invest in a transaction in which one or more other Clients are expected to participate, or already have made or will seek to make, an investment.  In addition, to the extent permitted by applicable law, a Client may also engage in investment transactions that may result in other Clients being relieved of obligations, or that may cause other Clients to divest certain investments (e.g., a Client may make a loan to, or directly or indirectly acquire securities or indebtedness of, a company that uses the proceeds to refinance or reorganize its capital structure, which could result in repayment of debt held by another Client).   Such Clients (or groups of Clients) may have conflicting interests and objectives in connection with such investments, including with respect to views on
145

the operations or activities of the issuer involved, the targeted returns from the investment and the timeframe for, and method of, exiting the investment. When making such investments, PIMCO may do so in a way that favors one Client over another Client, even if both Clients are investing in the same security at the same time. Certain Clients may invest on a “parallel” basis ( i.e., proportionately in all transactions at substantially the same time and on substantially the same terms and conditions). In addition, other accounts may expect to invest in many of the same types of investments as another account. However, there may be investments in which one or more of such accounts does not invest (or invests on different terms or on a non-pro rata basis) due to factors such as legal, tax, regulatory, business, contractual or other similar considerations or due to the provisions of a Client’s governing documents. Decisions as to the allocation of investment opportunities among such Clients present numerous conflicts of interest, which may not be resolved in a manner that is favorable to a Client’s interests. To the extent an investment is not allocated pro rata among such entities, a Client could incur a disproportionate amount of income or loss related to such investment relative to such other Client.
In addition, Clients may invest alongside one another in the same underlying investments or otherwise pursuant to a substantially similar investment strategy as one or more other Clients. In such cases, certain Clients may have preferential liquidity and information rights relative to other Clients holding the same investments, with the result that such Clients will be able to withdraw/redeem their interests in underlying investments in priority to Clients who may have more limited access to information or more restrictive withdrawal/redemption rights. Clients with more limited information rights or more restrictive liquidity may therefore be adversely affected in the event of a downturn in the markets.
Further, potential conflicts may be inherent in PIMCO’s use of multiple strategies. For example, conflicts will arise in cases where different Clients invest in different parts of an issuer’s capital structure, including circumstances in which one or more Clients may own private securities or obligations of an issuer and other Clients may own or seek to acquire private securities of the same issuer. For example, a Client may acquire a loan, loan participation or a loan assignment of a particular borrower in which one or more other Clients have an equity investment, or may invest in senior debt obligations of an issuer for one Client and junior debt obligations or equity of the same issuer for another Client.
PIMCO may also, for example, direct a Client to invest in a tranche of a structured finance vehicle, such as a CLO or CDO, where PIMCO is also, at the same or different time, directing another Client to make investments in a different tranche of the same vehicle, which tranche’s interests may be adverse to other tranches. PIMCO may also cause a Client to purchase from, or sell assets to, an entity, such as a structured finance vehicle, in which other Clients may have an interest, potentially in a manner that will have an adverse effect on the other Clients. There may also be conflicts where, for example, a Client holds certain debt or equity securities of an issuer, and that same issuer has issued other debt, equity or other instruments that are owned by other Clients or by an entity, such as a structured finance vehicle, in which other Clients have an interest.
In each of the situations described above, PIMCO may take actions with respect to the assets held by one Client that are adverse to the other Clients, for example, by foreclosing on loans, by putting an issuer into default, or by exercising rights to purchase or sell to an issuer, causing an issuer to take actions adverse to certain classes of securities, or otherwise. In negotiating the terms and conditions of any such investments, or any subsequent amendments or waivers or taking any other actions, PIMCO may find that the interests of a Client and the interests of one or more other Clients could conflict. In these situations, decisions over items such as whether to make the investment or take an action, proxy voting, corporate reorganization, how to exit an investment, or bankruptcy or similar matters (including, for example, whether to trigger an event of default or the terms of any workout) may result in conflicts of interest. Similarly, if an issuer in which a Client and one or more other Clients directly or indirectly hold different classes of securities (or other assets, instruments or obligations issued by such issuer or underlying investments of such issuer) encounters financial problems, decisions over the terms of any workout will raise conflicts of interests (including, for example, conflicts over proposed waivers and amendments to debt covenants). For example, a debt holder may be better served by a liquidation of the issuer in which it may be paid in full, whereas an equity or junior bond holder might prefer a reorganization that holds the potential to create value for the equity holders. In some cases PIMCO may refrain from taking certain actions or making certain investments on behalf of Clients in order to avoid or mitigate certain conflicts of interest or to prevent adverse regulatory or other effects on PIMCO, or may sell investments for certain Clients (in each case potentially disadvantaging the Clients on whose behalf the actions are not taken, investments not made, or investments sold). In other cases, PIMCO may not refrain from taking actions or making investments on behalf of certain Clients that have the potential to disadvantage other Clients. In addition,
146

PIMCO may take actions or refrain from taking actions in order to mitigate legal risks to PIMCO or its affiliates or its Clients even if disadvantageous to a Client’s account. Moreover, a Client may invest in a transaction in which one or more other Clients are expected to participate, or already have made or will seek to make, an investment.
Additionally, certain conflicts may exist with respect to portfolio managers who make investment decisions on behalf of several different types of Clients. Such portfolio managers may have an incentive to allocate trades, time or resources to certain Clients, including those Clients who pay higher investment management fees or that pay incentive fees or allocations, over other Clients. These conflicts may be heightened with respect to portfolio managers who are eligible to receive a performance allocation under certain circumstances as part of their compensation.
From time to time, PIMCO personnel may come into possession of MNPI which, if disclosed, might affect an investor’s decision to buy, sell or hold a security. Should a PIMCO employee come into possession of MNPI with respect to an issuer, he or she generally will be prohibited from communicating such information to, or using such information for the benefit of, Clients, which could limit the ability of Clients to buy, sell or hold certain investments, thereby limiting the investment opportunities or exit strategies available to Clients. In addition, holdings in the securities or other instruments of an issuer by PIMCO or its affiliates may affect the ability of a Client to make certain acquisitions of or enter into certain transactions with such issuer. PIMCO has no obligation or responsibility to disclose such information to, or use such information for the benefit of, any person (including Clients).
PIMCO maintains one or more restricted lists of companies whose securities are subject to certain trading prohibitions due to PIMCO’s business activities. PIMCO may restrict trading in an issuer’s securities if the issuer is on a restricted list or if PIMCO has MNPI about that issuer. In some situations, PIMCO may restrict Clients from trading in a particular issuer’s securities in order to allow PIMCO to receive MNPI on behalf of other Clients. A Client may be unable to buy or sell certain securities until the restriction is lifted, which could disadvantage the Client. PIMCO may also be restricted from making (or divesting of) investments in respect of some Clients but not others. In some cases, PIMCO may not initiate or recommend certain types of transactions, or may otherwise restrict or limit its advice relating to certain securities if a security is restricted due to MNPI or if PIMCO is seeking to limit receipt of MNPI.
PIMCO may conduct litigation or engage in other legal actions on behalf of one or more Clients. In such cases, Clients may be required to bear certain fees, costs, expenses and liabilities associated with the litigation. Other Clients that are or were investors in, or otherwise involved with, the subject investments may or may not (depending on the circumstances) be parties to such litigation actions, with the result that certain Clients may participate in litigation actions in which not all Clients with similar investments may participate, and such non-participating Clients may benefit from the results of such litigation actions without bearing or otherwise being subject to the associated fees, costs, expenses and liabilities. PIMCO, for example, typically does not pursue legal claims on behalf of its separate accounts. Furthermore, in certain situations, litigation or other legal actions pursued by PIMCO on behalf of a Client may be brought against or be otherwise adverse to a portfolio company or other investment held by a Client.
The foregoing is not a complete list of conflicts to which PIMCO or Clients may be subject. PIMCO seeks to review conflicts on a case-by-case basis as they arise. Any review will take into consideration the interests of the relevant Clients, the circumstances giving rise to the conflict, applicable PIMCO policies and procedures, and applicable laws. Clients (and investors in the Funds) should be aware that conflicts will not necessarily be resolved in favor of their interests and may in fact be resolved in a manner adverse to their interests. PIMCO will attempt to resolve such matters fairly, but even so, matters may be resolved in favor of other Clients which pay PIMCO higher fees or performance fees or in which PIMCO or its affiliates have a significant proprietary interest. There can be no assurance that any actual or potential conflicts of interest will not result in a particular Client or group of Clients receiving less favorable investment terms in or returns from certain investments than if such conflicts of interest did not exist.
Conflicts like those described above may also occur between Clients, on the one hand, and PIMCO or its affiliates, on the other. These conflicts will not always be resolved in favor of the Client. In addition, because PIMCO is affiliated with Allianz, a large multi-national financial institution, conflicts similar to those described above may occur between clients of PIMCO and PIMCO’s affiliates or accounts managed by those affiliates. Those affiliates (or their clients), which generally operate autonomously from PIMCO, may take actions that are adverse to PIMCO’s Clients. In many cases PIMCO will have limited or no ability to mitigate those actions or address those conflicts, which could adversely affect Client performance. In addition, certain regulatory or internal restrictions may prohibit PIMCO from using certain brokers or investing in certain companies (even if such companies are not affiliated with
147

Allianz) because of the applicability of certain laws and regulations or internal Allianz policies applicable to PIMCO, Allianz SE or their affiliates. An account’s willingness to negotiate terms or take actions with respect to an investment may also be, directly or indirectly, constrained or otherwise impacted to the extent Allianz SE, PIMCO, and/or their affiliates, directors, partners, managers, members, officers or personnel are also invested therein or otherwise have a connection to the subject investment (e.g., serving as a trustee or board member thereof).
Certain service providers to the Funds are expected to be owned by or otherwise related to or affiliated with a Client, and in certain cases, such service providers are expected to be, or are owned by, employed by, or otherwise related to, PIMCO, Allianz SE, their affiliates and/or their respective employees, consultants and other personnel. PIMCO may, in its sole discretion, determine to provide, or engage or recommend an affiliate of PIMCO to provide, certain services to the Funds, instead of engaging or recommending one or more third parties to provide such services. Subject to the governance requirements of a particular fund and applicable law, PIMCO or its affiliates, as applicable, will receive compensation in connection with the provision of such services. As a result, PIMCO faces a conflict of interest when selecting or recommending service providers for the Funds. Fees paid to an affiliated service provider will be determined in PIMCO’s commercially reasonable discretion, taking into account the relevant facts and circumstances, and consistent with PIMCO’s responsibilities. Although PIMCO has adopted various policies and procedures intended to mitigate or otherwise manage conflicts of interest with respect to affiliated service providers, there can be no guarantee that such policies and procedures (which may be modified or terminated at any time in PIMCO’s sole discretion) will be successful.
Performance Fees.     A portfolio manager may advise certain accounts with respect to which the advisory fee is based entirely or partially on performance. Performance fee arrangements may create a conflict of interest for the portfolio manager in that the portfolio manager may have an incentive to allocate the investment opportunities that he or she believes might be the most profitable to such other accounts instead of allocating them to a Fund. PIMCO has adopted policies and procedures reasonably designed to allocate investment opportunities between the Funds and such other accounts on a fair and equitable basis over time.
PIMCO All Asset and PIMCO All Asset All Authority Funds. Because the PIMCO All Asset and the PIMCO All Asset All Authority Funds invest substantially all of their assets in the Underlying PIMCO Funds, Research Affiliates believes that the potential conflicts of interest discussed above are mitigated. However, if the PIMCO All Asset Fund or the PIMCO All Asset All Authority Fund invests in any of the PIMCO RAE Fundamental Advantage PLUS Fund, PIMCO RAE PLUS EMG Fund, PIMCO RAE PLUS Fund, PIMCO RAE PLUS International Fund, PIMCO RAE PLUS Small Fund or PIMCO RAE Worldwide Long/Short PLUS Fund, each a series of PIMCO Funds, PIMCO All Asset: Multi-Real Fund, PIMCO All Asset: Multi-RAE PLUS Fund or PIMCO All Asset: Multi-Short PLUS Fund, each a series of the PIMCO Funds: Private Account Portfolio Series, or PIMCO Dividend and Income Fund, PIMCO RAE Emerging Markets Fund, PIMCO RAE International Fund, PIMCO RAE US Fund or PIMCO RAE US Small Fund, each a series of PIMCO Equity Series, Research Affiliates will, subject to applicable law, waive any fee to which it would be entitled under any sub-advisory agreement with any such Fund with respect to the assets of the PIMCO All Asset Fund or PIMCO All Asset All Authority Fund, as applicable, invested in such Fund. Accordingly, PIMCO and Research Affiliates believes that the potential conflicts of interest discussed above also are mitigated.
Portfolio Manager Compensation
PIMCO’s approach to compensation seeks to provide professionals with a Total Compensation Plan and process that is driven by PIMCO’s mission and CORE values of collaboration, openness, responsibility and excellence. Key Principles on Compensation Philosophy include:
PIMCO’s compensation practices are designed to attract and retain high performers;
PIMCO’s compensation philosophy embraces a corporate culture of rewarding behaviors aligned to our CORE values;
PIMCO’s goal is to ensure key professionals are aligned to PIMCO’s long-term success through awards linked to firm performance; and
PIMCO’s “Discern and Differentiate” discipline incorporates individual performance rating to guide total compensation outcomes.
148

The Total Compensation Plan consists of three components. The compensation program for portfolio managers is designed to align with clients’ interests, emphasizing each portfolio manager’s ability to generate long-term investment success for PIMCO’s clients. A portfolio manager’s compensation is not based solely on the performance of any Fund or any other account managed by that portfolio manager:
Base Salary     Base salary is determined based on core job responsibilities, positions/levels and market factors. Base salary levels are reviewed annually, when there is a significant change in job responsibilities or position, or a significant change in market levels.
Performance Bonus     Performance bonuses are designed to reward risk-adjusted performance and contributions to PIMCO’s broader investment process. The compensation process is not formulaic and the following non-exhaustive list of qualitative and quantitative criteria are considered when determining the total compensation for portfolio managers:
Performance measured over a variety of longer- and shorter-term periods, including 5-year, 4-year, 3-year, 2-year and 1-year dollar-weighted and account-weighted, pre-tax total and risk-adjusted investment performance as judged against the applicable benchmarks (which may include internal investment performance-related benchmarks) for each account managed by a portfolio manager (including the Funds) and relative to applicable industry peer groups; greatest emphasis is placed on 5-year and 3-year performance, followed by 1-year performance;
Consistency of investment performance across portfolios of similar mandate and guidelines, rewarding low dispersion and consistency of outperformance;
Appropriate risk positioning and risk management mindset which includes consistency with PIMCO’s investment philosophy, the Investment Committee’s positioning guidance, absence of defaults, and appropriate alignment with client objectives;
Contributions to mentoring, coaching and/or supervising members of team;
Collaboration, idea generation, and contribution of investment ideas in the context of PIMCO’s investment process, Investment Committee meetings, and day-to-day management of portfolios;
With much lesser importance than the aforementioned factors: amount and nature of assets managed by the portfolio manager, contributions to asset retention, and client satisfaction.
PIMCO’s partnership culture further rewards strong long term risk adjusted returns with promotion decisions almost entirely tied to long term contributions to the investment process. 10-year performance can also be considered, though not explicitly, as part of the compensation process.
Deferred Compensation     Long Term Incentive Plan (“LTIP”) is awarded to key professionals. Employees who reach a total compensation threshold are delivered their annual compensation in a mix of cash and/or deferred compensation. PIMCO incorporates a progressive allocation of deferred compensation as a percentage of total compensation, which is in line with market practices.
The LTIP provides participants with deferred cash awards that appreciate or depreciate based on PIMCO’s operating earnings over a rolling three-year period. The plan provides a link between longer term company performance and participant pay, further motivating participants to make a long-term commitment to PIMCO’s success.
Prior to March 2020, M Options were awarded to key professionals. The M Unit program provided mid-to-senior level employees with the potential to acquire an equity stake in PIMCO over their careers to better align employee incentives with the Firm’s long-term results. Options awarded under the program vest over a number of years and may be converted into non-voting PIMCO equity which shares in the profit distributions of the Firm.
Eligibility to participate in the LTIP is contingent upon continued employment at PIMCO and all other applicable eligibility requirements.
Profit Sharing Plan. Portfolio managers who are Managing Directors of PIMCO receive compensation from a non-qualified profit sharing plan consisting of a portion of PIMCO’s net profits. Portfolio managers who are Managing
149

Directors receive an amount determined by the Compensation Committee, based upon an individual’s overall contribution to the firm.
Research Affiliates. Robert D. Arnott along with his family members are the majority owner of Research Affiliates Global Holdings, LLC the sole member of Research Affiliates. Mr. Arnott receives a fixed base salary from Research Affiliates and periodic capital distributions from Research Affiliates Global Holdings. Capital distributions are not fixed, rather they are dependent upon profits generated by Research Affiliates. Mr. Arnott’s compensation as manager is not dependent on the performance of the Funds.

Distribution Of Trust Shares
Distributor
PIMCO Investments LLC (the “Distributor”) serves as the principal underwriter in the continuous public offering of each class of the Trust’s shares pursuant to a distribution contract (“Distribution Contract”) with the Trust, which is subject to annual approval by the Board of Trustees. The Distributor is a wholly-owned subsidiary of PIMCO and an indirect subsidiary of Allianz Asset Management. As noted in further detail below, under a separate marketing services agreement between PIMCO and the Distributor, PIMCO compensates the Distributor for providing various marketing services for the Funds. Furthermore, representatives of the Distributor (“Account Managers and Associates”) may also be employees or associated persons of PIMCO. Because of these affiliations with PIMCO, the interests of the Distributor may conflict with the interests of Fund investors.
As noted above, PIMCO pays the Distributor a fee for marketing and related services pursuant to a Marketing Services Agreement between PIMCO and the Distributor. These payments are made to the Distributor from PIMCO’s profits and are in addition to the revenue the Distributor earns under its Distribution Contract with the Trust. The fee is payable on a monthly basis at a current annual rate of 0.20 percent of gross fund sales in the month (“gross fund sales” includes the aggregate gross dollar value of sales of all share classes of the series of the Trust and certain other PIMCO-managed funds during the applicable month, with certain exclusions). In addition, pursuant to the Marketing Services Agreement, PIMCO pays the Distributor a fee at the annual rate of 0.10 percent of the average daily net asset value of the shares of the Trust and certain other PIMCO-managed funds.
The Distributor, located at 1633 Broadway, New York, NY 10019, is a broker-dealer registered with the SEC and is a member of FINRA. All account inquiries should be mailed to the Trust’s Transfer Agent, and should not be mailed to the Distributor.
The Distribution Contract will continue in effect with respect to each Fund and each class of shares thereof for successive one-year periods, provided that each such continuance is specifically approved: (i) by the vote of a majority
159

of the Trustees who are not interested persons of the Trust (as defined in the 1940 Act) and who have no direct or indirect financial interest in the Distribution Contract, the Supervision and Administration Agreement or the Distribution and Servicing Plans described below; and (ii) by the vote of a majority of the entire Board of Trustees cast in person at a meeting called for that purpose. If the Distribution Contract is terminated (or not renewed) with respect to one or more Funds or classes thereof, it may continue in effect with respect to any class of any Fund as to which it has not been terminated (or has been renewed).
The Trust generally does not offer or sell its shares outside of the United States, except to certain investors in approved jurisdictions and in conformity with local legal requirements.
Account Managers’ and Associates’ Compensation
Compensation for the Account Managers and Associates discussed in this section has four main components: base pay, quarterly incentive compensation, an annual bonus, and certain special bonuses/commissions.
Base Pay.     All Account Managers and Associates receive some amount of base pay — a predetermined and fixed annual salary paid in bi-weekly installments. From time to time, the Distributor reviews the minimum base salary to confirm it is consistent with a reasonable wage and that there is an appropriate ratio between base salary and the other three compensation components.
Quarterly Incentive Compensation.     Account Managers and Associates are eligible to receive quarterly incentive payments for the sale of certain products, including mutual funds, ETFs, interval funds, private funds and retail separately managed accounts (i.e., wrap accounts). Account Managers and Associates do not receive higher compensation for selling fund classes with distribution fees, for sales at approved firms. Additionally, Account Managers and Associates receive the same incentive compensation for products utilizing the same investment strategy (i.e. Total Return, Short Term, etc). Account Managers and Associates employed by the Distributor are eligible to receive compensation, ascending by product categorization, with respect to sales of the following: Base/Core, Diversifiers, Strategic, Active ETFs and Alternative Strategies (each as defined from time-to-time by the Distributor) which can be adjusted based on achievement of goals and net flows. The Distributor only distributes investment products managed by PIMCO, and accordingly Account Managers and Associates compensation does not distinguish between proprietary and non-proprietary products. The Distributor reserves the right to determine the amount of compensation payable to Account Managers and Associates in its sole discretion.
Annual Bonus.     Account Managers and Associates are eligible to receive an annual bonus. The annual bonus is determined through numerous factors, including a manager’s assessment that takes into consideration the Account Manager’s or Associate’s job and sales performance, both in absolute terms and relative to other Account Managers and Associates, as applicable, as well as PIMCO’s and the Distributor’s performance. The Distributor may use various metrics to assess or compare the job performance of Account Managers and Associates. Such metrics generally are indicative of the Account Manager’s or Associate’s success in the areas of, among others, financial professional satisfaction and the Account Manager’s or Associate’s product knowledge, responsiveness, and effectiveness. Annual bonuses may form a significant part of an Account Manager’s or Associate’s overall compensation. Additional information regarding annual bonuses is included under “Potential Conflicts of Interest” below.
Other Compensation.     From time to time Account Managers and Associates may receive special bonuses, including monthly bonuses, or other rewards in connection with the Distributor’s incentive programs that reward certain performance-related metrics. Account Managers and Associates may receive commissions from the sale of other products, including closed-end funds, whose commission rates may be higher than those product types noted above.
Potential Conflicts of Interest
As described above, Account Managers and Associates are eligible to receive compensation, in addition to their base pay, which could represent a significant portion of an Account Manager’s and Associate’s compensation. A factor that is evaluated in determining such compensation is the Account Manager’s or Associate’s success in marketing and selling products distributed by the Distributor. Account Managers and Associates may have a financial incentive to offer certain types of products to you, and the offering of such products may be considered, among other factors, in the assessment of an Account Manager’s or Associate’s performance.
160

As described above, Account Managers and Associates who offer certain products may receive compensation as a direct or indirect result of your selection of those products, which could represent a significant portion of an Account Manager’s or Associate’s compensation; an Account Manager’s quarterly bonus could be reduced depending on the size of a transaction or transactions and the compensation of the Account Manager’s net sales for the year to date period. This compensation may be more than what the Account Manager or Associate would receive if you had selected other products. Therefore, Account Managers and Associates may have a financial incentive to offer certain products. For example, Alternatives Strategies offer higher compensation than Active ETFs, which offer higher compensation than Strategic Strategies, and so on, as noted above. Under policies applicable to all Account Managers and Associates, no Account Manager or Associate is permitted to promote, recommend, or solicit the sale of one product over another solely because that product will provide higher revenue or compensation to the Account Manager or Associate, the Distributor or PIMCO. Please review all product materials and disclosures before selecting an investment product.
Multi-Class Plan
The Trust has adopted a Multi-Class Plan pursuant to Rule 18f-3 under the 1940 Act. Under the Multi-Class Plan, shares of each class of each Fund represent an equal pro rata interest in such Fund and, generally, have identical voting, dividend, liquidation, and other rights, preferences, powers, restrictions, limitations, qualifications and terms and conditions, except that: (a) each class has a different designation/name; (b) each class of shares bears any class-specific expenses allocated to it; and (c) each class has exclusive voting rights on any matter submitted to shareholders that relates solely to its distribution or service arrangements, and each class has separate voting rights on any matter submitted to shareholders in which the interests of one class differ from the interests of any other class.
Each class may, at the Board of Trustees’ discretion, pay a different share of distribution or shareholder servicing expenses (but not including advisory or custodial fees or other expenses related to the management of the Trust’s assets) if the distribution or shareholder servicing expenses are actually incurred in a different amount by that class, or if the class receives services of a different kind or to a different degree than the other classes. All other expenses are allocated to each class on the basis of the net asset value of that class in relation to the net asset value of the particular Fund. In addition, each class may have a different sales charge structure, and different exchange and conversion features.
The Trust may offer up to nine classes of shares: Class A, Class C, Class C-2, Class M, I-2, I-3, Class R, Institutional Class and Administrative Class.
Class A, Class C and Class C-2 shares of the Trust are primarily offered and sold to retail investors by broker-dealers which are members of FINRA and which have agreements with the Distributor, but may be available through other financial firms, including banks and trust companies and to specified benefit plans (as defined below) and other retirement accounts.
Class R shares generally are available only to 401(k) plans, 457 plans, employer sponsored 403(b) plans, profit sharing and money purchase pension plans, defined benefit plans, non-qualified deferred compensation plans, health care benefit funding plans (collectively, “specified benefit plans”) and other accounts whereby the plan or the plan’s financial firm has an agreement with the Distributor or the Administrator to utilize Class R shares in certain investment products or programs (each such plan or account, a “Class R Eligible Plan”). Additionally, Class R shares also are generally available only to Class R Eligible Plans where Class R shares are held on the books of the Funds through omnibus accounts (either at the plan level or at the level of the financial service firm). Class R shares are not available to retail accounts, non-Class R Eligible Plans, traditional and Roth IRAs (except through certain omnibus accounts), SEPs, SAR-SEPs, SIMPLE IRAs, individual 403(b) plans or Coverdell Education Savings Accounts. Plan participants may not directly purchase Class R shares through the Distributor. Financial firms may provide or arrange for the provision of some or all of the shareholder servicing, account maintenance and other services required by Class R Eligible Plans and their participants, for which fees or expenses may be charged in addition to those described in the Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information.
I-2 shares are offered primarily through by broker-dealers and other financial firms with which the Distributor has an agreement for the use of the share class in investment products, programs or accounts such as certain asset allocation, wrap fee and other similar programs. I-2 shares also may be offered through broker-dealers and other financial firms that charge their customers transaction or other fees with respect to their customers’ investment in the
161

Funds. I-2 shares are generally held in an account at a financial firm and generally, the firm will hold a shareholder’s I-2 shares in nominee or street name as your agent. In most cases, the Trust’s transfer agent will have no information with respect to or control over accounts of specific I-2 shareholders, and a shareholder may obtain information about accounts only through the financial firm. Broker-dealers, other financial firms, pension and profit-sharing plans, employee benefit trusts and employee benefit plan alliances also may purchase I-2 shares. Financial firms may provide or arrange for the provision of some or all of the shareholder servicing, account maintenance and other services required by specified benefit plan accounts and their participants, for which fees or expenses may be charged in addition to those described in the Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information.
I-3 shares are offered primarily through broker-dealers and other financial firms which the Distributor has an agreement for the use of the share class in investment products, programs or accounts such as mutual fund supermarkets or other no transaction fee platforms or for which a fee may be charged. I-3 shares are generally held in an account at a financial firm in nominee or street name as your agent. In most cases, the Trust’s transfer agent will have no information with respect to or control over accounts of specific I-3 shareholders, and a shareholder may obtain information about accounts only through the financial firm. Broker-dealers, other financial firms, pension and profit-sharing plans, employee benefit trusts and employee benefit plan alliances also may purchase I-3 shares.
Institutional Class shares are offered for direct investment by investors such as specified benefit plans, endowments, foundations, corporations and high net worth individuals that can meet the minimum investment amount. Institutional Class shares also may be offered through certain financial firms that charge their customers transaction or other fees with respect to the customer’s investment in the Funds. Financial firms may provide or arrange for the provision of some or all of the shareholder servicing, account maintenance and other services required by specified benefit plan accounts and their participants, for which fees or expenses may be charged in addition to those described in the Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information.
Class M shares are offered primarily for direct investment by investors such as specified benefit plans, endowments, foundations, corporations, high net worth individuals that can meet the minimum investment amount and through intermediary trading platforms and portals that provide specialized sub-accounting and shareholder processing services.
Administrative Class shares are generally offered through broker-dealers and other financial firms for investment by specified benefit plans. Financial firms may provide or arrange for the provision of some or all of the shareholder servicing, account maintenance and other services required by specified benefit plan accounts and their plan participants, for which fees or expenses may be charged in addition to those described in the Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information.
Initial Sales Charge and Contingent Deferred Sales Charge
As described in the Prospectuses under the caption “Classes of Shares—Sales Charges,” Class A shares of the Funds are sold pursuant to an initial sales charge (except for the PIMCO Government Money Market and PIMCO Short Asset Investment Funds), which declines as the amount of purchase reaches certain defined levels. For the fiscal years ended March 31, 2022, March 31, 2021 and March 31, 2020, the Distributor received an aggregate of $15,086,349.31, $20,412,915 and $26,436,414.42, respectively, and retained $2,104,594.37, $2,845,085 and $3,679,650, respectively, in initial sales charges paid by Class A shareholders of the Trust.
Each Fund may sell its Class A shares at net asset value without an initial sales charge to certain categories of investors, including current or retired officers, trustees, directors or employees of the Trust, PIMCO or the Distributor. The Trust believes that this arrangement encourages those persons to invest in the Funds, which further aligns the interest of the Funds and those persons. See “Sales at Net Asset Value” below for more information.
As further described in the Prospectuses under the caption “Classes of Shares—Sales Charges,” a contingent deferred sales charge is imposed upon certain redemptions of the Class A, Class C and Class C-2 shares. No contingent deferred sales charge is imposed upon redemptions of Class M, I-2, I-3, Class R, Institutional Class, or Administrative Class shares. Because contingent deferred sales charges are calculated on a fund-by-fund and class-by-class basis, shareholders should consider whether to exchange shares of one fund for shares of another fund or exchange one share class for another share class in the same fund (an “intra-fund exchange”) prior to redeeming an investment if such an exchange or intra-fund exchange would reduce the contingent deferred sales charge applicable to such redemptions.
162

During the fiscal years ended March 31, 2022, March 31, 2021 and March 31, 2020, the Distributor received the following aggregate amounts in contingent deferred sales charges on Class A shares, Class C and Class C-2 shares of the Funds, net of any commission adjustments payable by the Distributor to broker-dealers.

In certain cases described in the Prospectuses, the contingent deferred sales charge is waived on redemptions of Class A or Class C shares for certain classes of individuals or entities on account of: (i) the fact that the Trust’s sales-related expenses are lower for certain of such classes than for classes for which the contingent deferred sales charge is not waived; (ii) waiver of the contingent deferred sales charge with respect to certain of such classes is consistent with certain Internal Revenue Code policies concerning the favored tax treatment of accumulations; and (iii) with respect to certain of such classes, considerations of fairness, and competitive and administrative factors. See “Waiver of Contingent Deferred Sales Charges” below for more information.
Distribution and Servicing Plans for Class A, Class C, Class C-2 and Class R Shares
Class A, Class C, Class C-2 and Class R shares are continuously offered. Pursuant to separate Distribution and Servicing Plans for Class A, Class C, Class C-2 and Class R shares (the “Retail Plans”), the Distributor receives distribution fees from the Funds, and in connection with personal services rendered to Class A, Class C, Class C-2 and Class R shareholders of the Funds and the maintenance of shareholder accounts, the Distributor receives servicing fees from the Funds. Subject to the percentage limitations on these distribution and servicing fees set forth below, the distribution and servicing fees may be paid with respect to services rendered and expenses borne in the past with respect to Class A, Class C, Class C-2 and Class R shares as to which no distribution and servicing fees were paid on account of such limitations. As described in the Prospectuses, the Distributor pays: (i) all or a portion of the distribution fees it receives from the Funds to broker-dealers, and (ii) all or a portion of the servicing fees it receives from the Funds to broker-dealers, certain banks and other financial firms. In some cases, such payments from the Distributor begin in the thirteenth month after the purchase of Class A or Class C shares.
The Distributor pays distribution and servicing fees to broker-dealers and servicing fees to certain banks and other financial firms as well as specified benefit plans, their service providers and their sponsors in connection with the sale of Class C, Class C-2 and Class R shares, and servicing fees to broker-dealers, certain banks and other financial firms related to servicing Class A shares. In the case of Class A shares, broker-dealers receive a portion of the front-end sales charge set forth in the tables below under the caption “Initial Sales Charge Alternative—Class A Shares” except in cases where Class A shares are sold without a front-end sales charge (although the Distributor may pay broker-dealers an advance/upfront commission in connection with sales of Class A shares without a sales charge). In the case of Class C and Class C-2 shares, part or all of the first year’s distribution and servicing fee is generally paid at the time of sale. Pursuant to a Distribution Contract with the Trust, with respect to each Fund’s Class A, Class C, Class C-2 and Class R shares, the Distributor bears various other promotional and sales related expenses, including the cost of preparing, printing and distributing advertising, sales literature and Prospectuses to persons other than current shareholders.
The Retail Plans were adopted pursuant to Rule 12b-l under the 1940 Act and are of the type known as “compensation” plans. This means that, although the Trustees of the Trust are expected to take into account the expenses of the Distributor and its predecessors in their periodic review of the Retail Plans, the fees are payable to compensate the Distributor for services rendered even if the amount paid exceeds the Distributor’s expenses.
The distribution fee, applicable to Class C, Class C-2 and Class R shares, may be spent by the Distributor on any activities or expenses primarily intended to result in the sale of Class C, Class C-2 or Class R shares, including compensation to, and expenses (including overhead and telephone expenses) of, registered representatives or other employees of the Distributor or of broker-dealers who engage in sales of Class C, Class C-2 or Class R shares. The servicing fee, applicable to Class A, Class C, Class C-2 and Class R shares, may be spent by the Distributor on personal services rendered to shareholders of the Funds and the maintenance of shareholder accounts, including compensation to, and expenses (including telephone and overhead expenses) of, financial professionals or other employees of broker-dealers, certain banks and other financial firms as well as specified benefit plans, their service
163

providers and their sponsors who provide services to plan participants, who aid in the processing of purchase or redemption requests or the processing of dividend payments, who provide information periodically to shareholders showing their positions in a Fund’s shares, who forward communications from the Funds to shareholders, who render advice concerning the suitability of particular investment opportunities offered by the Trust in light of the shareholders’ needs, who provide and maintain elective shareholder services such as check writing and wire transfer services, who provide and maintain pre-authorized investment plans for shareholders, who act as sole shareholder of record and nominee for shareholders, who respond to inquiries from shareholders relating to such services, or who train personnel in the provision of such services or who provide such similar services as permitted under applicable statutes, rules or regulations. Distribution and servicing fees also may be spent on interest payments relating to unreimbursed distribution or servicing expenses from prior years.
Many of the Distributor’s sales and servicing efforts involve the Trust as a whole, so that fees paid by Class A, Class C, Class C-2 or Class R shares of any Fund may indirectly support sales and servicing efforts relating to the other Funds’ shares of the same class and vice versa. In reporting its expenses to the Trustees, the Distributor itemizes expenses that relate to the distribution and/or servicing of a single Fund’s shares, and allocates other expenses among the Funds based on their relative net assets. Expenses allocated to each Fund are further allocated among its classes of shares annually based on the relative sales of each class, except for any expenses that relate only to the distribution or servicing of a single class. The Distributor may make payments to broker-dealers (and with respect to servicing fees only, to certain banks and other financial firms) of up to the following percentages annually of the average daily net assets attributable to shares in the accounts of their customers or clients:

With respect to the PIMCO Government Money Market Fund, the Trust has suspended payment of distribution and/or servicing fees at this time. The payment of distribution and/or servicing fees may only be resumed at such time as the Board of Trustees determines that it is in the best interests of Fund shareholders to do so.
Some or all of the sales charges, distribution fees and servicing fees described above are paid or “reallowed” to the broker-dealer, bank, trust company, insurance company or benefit plan administrator or other service provider (collectively, “financial firms”) through which you purchase your shares.

If in any year the Distributor’s expenses incurred in connection with the distribution of Class C, Class C-2 and Class R shares and, for Class A, Class C, Class C-2 and Class R shares, in connection with the servicing of shareholders and the maintenance of shareholder accounts, exceed the distribution and/or servicing fees paid by the Trust, the Distributor would recover such excess only if the Retail Plan with respect to such class of shares continues to be in effect in some later year when the distribution and/or servicing fees exceed the Distributor’s expenses. The Trust is not obligated to repay any unreimbursed expenses that may exist at such time, if any, as the relevant Retail Plan terminates.
Each Retail Plan may be terminated with respect to any Fund to which the Plan relates by vote of a majority of the Trustees who are not interested persons of the Trust (as defined in the 1940 Act) and who have no direct or indirect financial interest in the operation of the Plan or the Distribution Contract (“Disinterested Trustees”) or by vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the relevant class of that Fund. Any change in any Retail Plan that would materially increase the cost to the class of shares of any Fund to which the Plan relates requires approval by the affected class of shareholders of that Fund. The Trustees review quarterly written reports of such costs and the purposes for which such costs have been incurred. Each Retail Plan may be amended by vote of the Disinterested Trustees cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose. As long as the Retail Plans are in effect, selection and nomination of those Trustees who are not interested persons of the Trust shall be committed to the discretion of such Disinterested Trustees.
The Retail Plans will continue in effect with respect to each Fund and each class of shares thereof for successive one-year periods, provided that each such continuance is specifically approved: (i) by the vote of a majority of the Disinterested Trustees; and (ii) by the vote of a majority of the entire Board of Trustees cast in person at a meeting called for that purpose.
The Retail Plans went into effect for the Trust in January 1997 (December 2002 for Class R shares). If a Retail Plan is terminated (or not renewed) with respect to one or more Funds, it may continue in effect with respect to any class of any Fund as to which it has not been terminated (or has been renewed).
The Retail Plans, as well as the Administrative Class Plan discussed below, are designed to promote sales of shares and to reduce the amount of redemptions that might otherwise occur if those plans were not in effect, and to compensate financial firms for their servicing and maintenance of shareholder accounts. Although Fund expenses are primarily based on a percentage of net assets, increasing net assets through sales of shares and limiting reductions in nets assets by reducing redemptions may help lower a Fund’s expense ratio by spreading its fixed costs over a larger base and may reduce the potential adverse effects of selling a Fund’s portfolio securities to meet redemptions. In addition, PIMCO and the Distributor may profit by reason of the operation of the plans through increases in Fund assets which may allow them to recruit and retain talent required to maintain a high level of performance and service to the Funds and their shareholders. It is impossible to know for certain if the level of sales and redemptions of Fund shares would differ in the absence of these plans, or whether other benefits will be realized as a result of these plans.

Distribution and Servicing Plan for Administrative Class Shares
The Trust has adopted a Distribution and Servicing Plan with respect to the Administrative Class shares of each Fund pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act (the “Administrative Class Plan”). Under the terms of the Administrative Class Plan, a Fund may compensate the Distributor for providing, or procuring through financial firms, certain services in connection with the distribution and marketing of Administrative Class shares and/or certain shareholder services to a financial firm’s customers or participants in benefits plans that invest in Administrative Class shares of the Funds. The following lists the maximum annual rates at which the distribution and/or servicing fees may be paid under the Administrative Class Plan (calculated as a percentage of each Fund’s average daily net assets attributable to Administrative Class shares):
Administrative Class
Distribution and/or Servicing Fee
PIMCO Government Money Market Fund
0.10%
All other Funds
0.25%
The fee payable pursuant to the Administrative Class Plan may be used by the Distributor to provide or procure services including, among other things, providing facilities to answer questions from prospective investors about a Fund; receiving and answering correspondence, including requests for Prospectuses and the Statement of Additional Information; preparing, printing and delivering Prospectuses and shareholder reports to prospective shareholders; complying with federal and state securities laws pertaining to the sale of Administrative Class shares; and assisting investors in completing application forms and selecting dividend and other account options. In addition, the fee payable pursuant to the Administrative Class Plan may be used by the Distributor to provide or procure administrative services for Administrative Class shareholders of the Funds including, among other things, receiving, aggregating and processing shareholder orders; furnishing shareholder sub-accounting; providing and maintaining elective shareholder services such as check writing and wire transfer services; providing and maintaining pre-authorized investment plans; communicating periodically with shareholders; acting as the sole shareholder of record and nominee for shareholders; maintaining accounting records for shareholders; answering questions and handling correspondence from shareholders about their accounts; and performing similar account administrative services.
In accordance with Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act, the Administrative Class Plan may not be amended to increase materially the costs which Administrative Class shareholders may bear under the respective Administrative Class Plan without approval of a majority of the outstanding Administrative Class shares, as applicable, and by vote of a majority of both: (i) the Trustees of the Trust; and (ii) those Trustees who are not “interested persons” of the Trust (as defined in the 1940 Act) and who have no direct or indirect financial interest in the operation of the Administrative Class Plan or any agreements related to it (the “Administrative Class Plan Trustees”), cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on the Administrative Class Plan and any related amendments. The Administrative Class Plan may not take effect until approved by a vote of a majority of both: (i) the Trustees of the Trust; and (ii) the Administrative Class Plan Trustees. The Administrative Class Plan shall continue in effect so long as such continuance is specifically approved at least annually by the Trustees and the Administrative Class Plan Trustees. The Administrative Class Plan may be terminated at any time, without penalty, by vote of a majority of the Administrative Class Plan Trustees or by a vote of a majority of the outstanding Administrative Class shares of a Fund. Pursuant to the Administrative Class Plan, the Board of Trustees will be provided with quarterly reports of amounts expended under the Administrative Class Plan and the purpose for which such expenditures were made.
FINRA rules limit the amount of distribution fees that may be paid by mutual funds as a percentage of average annual net assets. “Service fees,” defined to mean fees paid for providing shareholder services or the maintenance of accounts (but not transfer agency or sub-account services) are not subject to these limits on distribution fees. While the fees paid pursuant to the Administrative Class Plan will typically be treated as distribution fees for purposes of FINRA rules, some portion of the fees may qualify as “service fees” (or fees for ministerial, recordkeeping or administrative activities) and therefore will not be limited by FINRA rules which limit distribution fees as a percentage of average annual net assets. However, FINRA rules limit service fees to 0.25% of a Fund’s average annual net assets.
173

Payments Pursuant to the Administrative Class Plans
For the fiscal years ended March 31, 2022, March 31, 2021 and March 31, 2020, the Trust paid qualified service providers an aggregate amount of $9,909,585, $10,924,180 and $14,272,119, respectively, pursuant to the Administrative Services Plan and the Administrative Distribution Plan.

Additional Payments to Financial Firms
Revenue Sharing/Marketing Support. The Distributor or PIMCO (for purposes of this subsection only, collectively, “PIMCO”) makes payments and provides other incentives to financial firms as compensation for services such as providing the Funds with “shelf space,” or a higher profile for the financial firms’ financial professionals and their customers, placing the Funds on the financial firms’ preferred or recommended fund list or otherwise identifying the Funds as being part of a complex to be accorded a higher degree of marketing support than complexes whose distributor or investment adviser is not making such payments, granting PIMCO access to the financial firms’ financial professionals (including through the firms’ intranet websites or other proprietary communications systems and channels) in order to promote the Funds, promotions in communications with financial firms’ customers such as in the firms’ internet websites or in customer newsletters, providing assistance in training and educating the financial firms’ personnel, and furnishing marketing support and other specified services. The actual services provided, and the payments made for such services, vary from firm to firm. These payments may be significant to the financial firms.
A number of factors are considered in determining the amount of these additional payments to financial firms. On some occasions, such payments may be conditioned upon levels of sales, including the sale of a specified minimum dollar amount of the shares of a Fund and/or all of the Funds and/or other funds sponsored by PIMCO together or a particular class of shares, during a specified period of time. PIMCO also makes payments to one or more financial firms based upon factors such as the amount of assets a financial firm’s clients have invested in the Funds and the quality of the financial firm’s relationship with PIMCO and/or its affiliates.
174

The additional payments described above are made from PIMCO’s (or its affiliates’) own assets (and sometimes, therefore referred to as “revenue sharing”) pursuant to agreements with financial firms and do not change the price paid by investors for the purchase of a Fund’s shares or the amount a Fund will receive as proceeds from such sales. These payments may be made to financial firms (as selected by PIMCO) that have sold significant amounts of shares of the Funds or other PIMCO-sponsored funds. With respect to Class A, Class C and Class C-2 shares (and, Class R shares, to the extent a financial firm has a written agreement to receive revenue sharing on Class R shares), except as described in the following paragraph, the level of payments made to a financial firm will vary and generally will not exceed in any billing period: (1) the sum of: (a) 0.10% of gross sales of Class A, Class C and Class C-2 shares (Class R shares, if applicable) of the Funds and PIMCO Equity Series by such financial firm; and (b) an annual rate of 0.03% of the assets attributable to that financial firm invested in Class A, Class C and Class C-2 shares (Class R shares, if applicable) of the Funds and PIMCO Equity Series (as determined by the contractual arrangement between the parties, which may, among other things, exclude certain assets from the calculation) (the “10/3 cap”); or (2) an annual rate of 0.05% of the assets attributable to that financial firm invested in Class A, Class C and Class C-2 shares (Class R shares, if applicable) of the Funds and PIMCO Equity Series (as determined by the contractual arrangement between the parties, which may, among other things, exclude certain assets from the calculation) (the “5bp cap”). Only agreements entered into on or after April 1, 2021 will be eligible, in PIMCO’s discretion, for the 5bp cap. The determination of which limit applies will vary pursuant to the terms of each agreement. In certain cases, the payments are subject to minimum payment levels or vary based on the advisory fee or total expense ratio of the relevant Fund(s). In lieu of payments pursuant to the foregoing formula, PIMCO makes, in certain instances, payments of an agreed upon amount which normally will not exceed the amount that would have been payable pursuant to the formula as of the effective date of the agreement. With respect to Class M shares, the level of payments made to a financial firm in any future year will vary.
Financial firms with a combined AUM in excess of $5 billion in Class A, Class C, Class C-2 and I-2 shares of the Funds and PIMCO Equity Series that have a written agreement with PIMCO to receive revenue sharing payments on the applicable share class (for purposes of this paragraph, “Eligible Firms”) are eligible for marketing support payments beyond those described in the preceding paragraph on certain Eligible Assets (as defined below). The total payment in any billing period (as determined by the contractual arrangement between the parties) to any Eligible Firm with an agreement to receive revenue sharing payments on I-2 shares generally shall not exceed 0.05% of the combined Eligible Assets of Class A, Class C, Class C-2 and I-2 shares of the Funds and PIMCO Equity Series. Should any Eligible Firm not collect marketing support on I-2 shares, the total payment to such Eligible Firm generally shall not exceed the greater of: (a) 0.05% of Eligible Assets of Class A, Class C and Class C-2 shares of the Funds and PIMCO Equity Series; or (b) the 10/3 cap with respect to Class A, Class C and Class C-2 shares only. With respect to the Eligible Firms receiving marketing support payments with respect to I-2 shares pursuant to this paragraph, payments may be lower for particular Funds or funds of PIMCO Equity Series as compared to other Funds or funds of PIMCO Equity Series. “Eligible Assets” for purposes of this paragraph are all assets of Class A, Class C, Class C-2 and I-2 shares of the Funds and PIMCO Equity Series attributable to such Eligible Firm less any such assets attributable to the Eligible Firm that the Eligible Firm instructs PIMCO in writing to exclude. Although these payments are made from PIMCO’s own assets, in some cases the levels of such payments may vary by Fund or share class in relation to advisory fees, total annual operating expenses or other payments made by the Fund or share class to PIMCO. These additional payments by PIMCO may be made to financial firms (as selected by PIMCO) that have sold significant amounts of shares of the Funds.
Model Portfolios. Payments for revenue sharing, in certain circumstances, may also be made to financial firms in connection with the distribution of model portfolios developed by PIMCO, such as through inclusion of such model portfolios on a financial firm’s platform, as well as in connection with the marketing and sale of, and/or product training regarding such model portfolios, or servicing of accounts tracking such model portfolios. Such payments may be flat fee payments for “platform support” as defined below, or other payments in the form of a flat fee or a per position fee, or may relate to the amount of assets a financial firm’s clients have invested in the Funds, the advisory fee, the total expense ratio (not including interest expense), or sales of any share class, of the Funds in such PIMCO-developed models. Some financial firms also provide related data regarding transactions in specific model portfolios, Funds and investment strategies to PIMCO in exchange for a fee. The cap rates set forth under “Revenue Sharing/Marketing Support” above do not apply to payments for the marketing and sale of model portfolios.
Ticket Charges. In addition to the payments described above, PIMCO makes payments to financial firms in connection with certain transaction fees (also referred to as “ticket charges”) incurred by the financial firms.
175

Event Support; Other Non-Cash Compensation; Charitable Contributions. In addition to the payments described above, PIMCO pays and/or reimburses, at its own expense, financial firms’ sponsorship and/or attendance at conferences, seminars or informational meetings (which may include events held through video technology, to the extent permitted by applicable regulation) (“event support”), provides financial firms or their personnel with occasional tickets to events or other entertainment (which, in some instances, is held virtually), meals and small gifts and pays or provides reimbursement for reasonable travel and lodging expenses for attendees of PIMCO educational events (“other non-cash compensation”), and makes charitable contributions to valid charitable organizations at the request of financial firms (“charitable contributions”) to the extent permitted by applicable law, rules and regulations.
Visits; Training; Education. In addition to the payments described above, wholesale representatives and employees of PIMCO or its affiliates visit financial firms on a regular basis to educate financial professionals and other personnel about the Funds and to encourage the sale or recommendation of Fund shares to their clients. PIMCO may also provide (or compensate consultants or other third parties to provide) other relevant training and education to a financial firm’s financial professionals and other personnel.
Platform Support; Consultant Services. PIMCO also may make payments or reimbursements to financial firms or their affiliated companies, which may be used for their platform development, maintenance, improvement and/or the availability of services including, but not limited to, platform education and communications, relationship management support, development to support new or changing products, eligibility for inclusion on sample fund line-ups, trading or order taking platforms and related infrastructure/technology and/or legal, risk management and regulatory compliance infrastructure in support of investment-related products, programs and services (collectively, “platform support”). Such payments typically relate to the amount of assets a financial firm’s clients have invested in the Funds or other PIMCO-advised funds. In certain instances, platform support payments are made for the purpose of supporting services provided by a financial firm’s servicing of shareholder accounts, including, but not limited to, handling toll-free telephone inquiries, processing shareholder communications, and providing information to shareholders on their investments. Subject to applicable law, PIMCO and its affiliates may also provide investment advisory services to financial firms and their affiliates and may execute brokerage transactions on behalf of the Funds with such financial firms’ affiliates. These financial firms or their affiliates may, in the ordinary course of their financial firm business, recommend that their clients utilize PIMCO’s investment advisory services or invest in the Funds or in other products sponsored or distributed by PIMCO or its affiliates. Although platform support payments are not primarily intended to compensate financial firms for distribution of Fund shares or to encourage the sale of Fund shares, these payments may provide an additional incentive to certain financial firms to actively promote the sale of Fund shares and retain positions in the Funds in anticipation of increasing or retaining platform support payments. In addition, PIMCO may pay investment consultants or their affiliated companies for certain services including technology, operations, tax, or audit consulting services and may pay such firms for PIMCO’s attendance at investment forums sponsored by such firms (collectively, “consultant services”).
Data. PIMCO also may make payments or reimbursements to financial firms or their affiliated companies for various studies, surveys, industry data, research and information about, and contact information for, particular financial professionals who have sold, or may in the future sell, shares of the Funds or other PIMCO-advised funds (i.e., “data”). Such payments may relate to the amount of assets a financial firm’s clients have invested in the Funds or other PIMCO-advised funds.
Payments. Payments for items including event support, platform support, data and consultant services (but not including certain account services, discussed below), as well as revenue sharing, are, in certain circumstances, bundled and allocated among these categories in PIMCO’s discretion. Portions of such bundled payments allocated by PIMCO to revenue sharing shall remain subject to the percentage limitations on revenue sharing payments disclosed above. The financial firms receiving such bundled payments may characterize or allocate the payments differently from PIMCO’s internal allocation. In addition, payments made by PIMCO to a financial firm and allocated by PIMCO to a particular category of services can in some cases result in benefits related to, or enhance the eligibility of PIMCO or a Fund to receive, services provided by the financial firm that may be characterized or allocated to one or more other categories of services.
As of March 31, 2022, PIMCO anticipates that the firms that will receive the additional payments for marketing support, shelf space or other services as described above include:

PIMCO expects that additional firms may be added to this list from time to time or may receive one-time payments without anticipation of receiving future additional payments.
Subject to applicable law, PIMCO and its affiliates may also provide investment advisory services to financial firms and their affiliates and may execute brokerage transactions on behalf of the Funds with such financial firms’ affiliates. These financial firms or their affiliates may, in the ordinary course of their financial firm business, recommend that their clients utilize PIMCO’s investment advisory services or invest in the Funds or in other products sponsored or distributed by PIMCO or its affiliates.
Account Services. In addition to the payments, reimbursements and incentives described above, further amounts are, in certain circumstances, paid by PIMCO to financial firms for providing services with respect to shareholders holding Fund shares in nominee or street name, including, but not limited to, the following services: providing explanations and answering inquiries regarding the Funds and their accounts; providing recordkeeping and other administrative services, including preparing record date shareholder lists for proxy solicitation; maintaining records of and facilitating shareholder purchases and redemptions; processing and mailing transaction confirmations, periodic statements, prospectuses, shareholder reports, shareholder notices and other Securities and Exchange Commission-required communications to shareholders; providing periodic statements to certain benefit plans and participants in such plans of the Funds held for the benefit of each participant in the plan; processing, collecting and posting distributions to their accounts; issuing and mailing dividend checks to shareholders who have selected cash distributions; assisting in the establishment and maintenance of shareholder accounts; providing account designations and other information; capturing and processing tax data; establishing and maintaining automatic withdrawals and automated investment plans and shareholder account registrations; providing sub-accounting services; providing recordkeeping services related to purchase and redemption transactions, including providing such information as may be necessary to assure compliance with applicable blue sky requirements; and performing similar administrative services as requested by PIMCO to the extent that the firm is permitted by applicable statute, rule or regulation to provide such information or services. The actual services provided, and the payments made for such services, vary
177

from firm to firm. Such services may be referred to under a variety of descriptions, including sub-accounting, sub-transfer agency, administrative or shareholder services.
For these services, PIMCO may pay: (i) an annual fee of up to 0.25% per annum (up to 0.10% per annum with respect to I-2 shares and up to 0.15% per annum with respect to I-3 shares) of the value of the assets in the relevant accounts; or (ii) annual per account charges that in the aggregate generally range from $0 to $6 per account, and in some cases up to $12 per account, for networking fees for NSCC-networked accounts and from $14 to $19 for services to omnibus accounts (but in no event more than the amounts described in (i) above). These payments are made out of PIMCO’s own resources. Such resources may include the supervisory and administrative fees paid to PIMCO under the Funds’ supervision and administration agreement. Additionally, although these payments are made out of PIMCO’s own resources, in some cases the levels of such payments may vary by Fund or share class in relation to advisory fees, total annual operating expenses or other payments made by the Fund or share class to PIMCO. In addition, PIMCO may pay financial firms a flat fee to cover certain set-up costs by Fund or share class. These payments, taken together in the aggregate, may be material to financial firms relative to other compensation paid by a Fund and/or PIMCO and may be in addition to any (a) distribution and/or servicing (12b-1) fees; (b) marketing support, revenue sharing, platform support or “shelf space” fees; and (c) event support, other non-cash compensation and charitable contributions disclosed above and paid to or at the request of such financial firms or their personnel. The additional servicing payments and set-up fees described above may differ depending on the Fund and share class and may vary from amounts paid to the Trust’s transfer agent for providing similar services to other accounts.
If investment advisers, distributors or affiliated persons of mutual funds make payments and provide other incentives in differing amounts, financial firms and their financial professionals may have financial incentives for recommending a particular mutual fund over other mutual funds. In addition, depending on the arrangements in place at any particular time, a financial firm and its financial professionals also may have a financial incentive for recommending a particular share class over other share classes. Because financial firms and plan recordkeepers may be paid varying amounts per class for sub-accounting and related recordkeeping services, the service requirements of which also may vary by class, this may create an additional incentive for financial firms and their financial professionals to favor one fund complex over another or one fund class over another. You should review carefully any disclosure by the financial firm or plan recordkeepers as to its compensation.
In certain circumstances, PIMCO or its affiliates may pay or reimburse financial firms for distribution and/or shareholder services out of PIMCO’s or its affiliates’ own assets when the Distributor does not receive associated distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees from the applicable Funds. These payments and reimbursements may be made from profits received by PIMCO or its affiliates from other fees paid by the Funds. Such activities by PIMCO or its affiliates may provide incentives to financial firms to purchase or market shares of the Funds. Additionally, these activities may give PIMCO or its affiliates additional access to sales representatives of such financial firms, which may increase sales of Fund shares. The payments described in this paragraph may be significant to payors and payees.
Purchases, Exchanges and Redemptions
Purchases, exchanges and redemptions of all Fund shares are discussed under the “Purchases, Redemptions and Exchanges” section of the Prospectuses, and that information is incorporated herein by reference.
Certain managed account clients of PIMCO may purchase Fund shares. To avoid the imposition of duplicative fees, PIMCO may be required to make adjustments in the management fees charged separately by PIMCO to these clients to offset the management fees and expenses paid indirectly through a client’s investment in the Fund.
Certain clients of PIMCO whose assets would be eligible for purchase by one or more of the Funds may purchase shares of the Trust with such assets. Assets so purchased by a Fund will be valued in accordance with procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees.
Generally, the minimum initial investment for shares of Class A, Class C and Class C-2 is $1,000 per Fund. For information on specific account types for Class A, Class C and Class C-2 shares see below. Except for the PIMCO Municipal Value Funds, the minimum initial investment for shares of the Institutional Class, Class M, I-2, I-3 and Administrative Class is $1 million per account, except that the minimum investment may be modified for certain financial firms that submit orders on behalf of their customers. For the PIMCO Municipal Value Funds, the minimum initial investment for Institutional Class shares of the Fund is $250,000. A Fund or the Distributor may lower or waive
178

the minimum initial investment for certain categories of investors at their discretion. In addition, the minimum initial investment may be modified for the Trustees and certain employees and their extended family members of PIMCO and its affiliates. (See “Sales at Net Asset Value” below for the definition of extended family members.) To obtain more information about exceptions to the minimum initial investment for all share classes please call 888.87.PIMCO.
One or more classes of shares of the Funds may not be qualified or registered for sale in all States. Prospective investors should inquire as to whether shares of a particular Fund, or class of shares thereof, are available for offer and sale in their State of domicile or residence. Shares of a Fund may not be offered or sold in any State unless registered or qualified in that jurisdiction, unless an exemption from registration or qualification is available.
As described in the Prospectuses under the caption “Exchanging Shares” and as described herein under “Exchange Privileges,” except for the PIMCO Municipal Value Funds, a shareholder generally may exchange shares of any Fund for shares of the same class of any other Fund of the Trust or any series of PIMCO Equity Series that is available for investment, each on the basis of their respective net asset values. A shareholder may also exchange Class M shares of any Fund for Institutional Class shares of any other Fund of the Trust, except for the PIMCO Municipal Value Funds, or any series of PIMCO Equity Series that is available for investment. This exchange privilege may in the future be extended to cover any “interval” funds that may be established and managed by the Adviser and its affiliates. The original purchase date(s) of shares exchanged for purposes of calculating any contingent deferred sales charge will carry over to the investment in the new Fund. For example, if a shareholder invests in Class C shares of one Fund and 6 months later (when the contingent deferred sales charge upon redemption would normally be 1%) exchanges his or her shares for Class C shares of another Fund, no sales charge would be imposed upon the exchange but the investment in the other Fund would be subject to the 1% contingent deferred sales charge until one year after the date of the shareholder’s investment in the first Fund as described in the applicable Prospectus.
Shares of one class of a Fund may be exchanged, at a shareholder’s option, directly for shares of another class of the same Fund (an “intra-fund exchange”), subject to the terms and conditions described below and to such other fees and charges as set forth in the applicable Prospectus(es) (including the imposition or waiver of any sales charge (load) or contingent deferred sales charge (“CDSC”)), provided that the shareholder for whom the intra-fund exchange is being requested meets the eligibility requirements of the class into which such shareholder seeks to exchange. Additional information regarding the eligibility requirements of different share classes, including investment minimums and intended distribution channels, is provided under “Distribution of Trust Shares” above, and/or in the applicable Prospectus(es). Shares of a Fund will be exchanged for shares of a different class of the same Fund on the basis of their respective NAVs, and no redemption fee will apply to intra-fund exchanges. Ongoing fees and expenses incurred by a given share class will differ from those of other share classes, and a shareholder receiving new shares in an intra-fund exchange may be subject to higher or lower total expenses following such exchange. In addition to changes in ongoing fees and expenses, a shareholder receiving new shares in an intra-fund exchange may be required to pay an initial sales charge (load) or CDSC. Generally, intra-fund exchanges into Class A shares will be subject to a Class A sales charge unless otherwise noted below, and intra-fund exchanges out of Class A, Class C or Class C-2 shares will be subject to the standard schedule of CDSCs for the share class out of which the shareholder is exchanging, unless otherwise noted below. If Class C or Class C-2 shares are exchanged for Class A shares, a shareholder will be responsible for paying any Class C or Class C-2 CDSCs, as applicable, and any applicable Class A sales charge. If I-2 or I-3 shares are exchanged for Class A shares, a Class A sales charge will not apply. If Class A shares were purchased at NAV and no commission was paid and then exchanged for Institutional Class, I-2 or I-3 shares, a CDSC will not apply. With respect to shares subject to a CDSC, if less than all of an investment is exchanged out of one class of a Fund, any portion of the investment exchanged will be from the lot of shares that would incur the lowest CDSC if such shares were being redeemed rather than exchanged. Shareholders generally should not recognize gain or loss for U.S. federal income tax purposes upon such an intra-fund exchange, provided that the transaction is undertaken and processed, with respect to any shareholder, as a direct exchange transaction. If an intra-fund exchange incurs a CDSC or sales charge, Fund shares may be redeemed to pay such charge, and that redemption will be taxable. Shareholders should consult their tax advisors as to the federal, state, local and non-U.S. tax consequences of an intra-fund exchange.
For each Fund (except for PIMCO Government Money Market Fund), orders for exchanges accepted prior to the close of regular trading on the NYSE (normally 4:00 pm Eastern time) (“NYSE Close”) on any day the Trust is open for business will be executed at the respective net asset values determined as of the close of business that day. Orders for exchanges received after the NYSE Close on any business day will be executed at the respective net asset values determined at the close of the next business day.
179

For the PIMCO Government Money Market Fund, orders for exchanges accepted prior to 5:30 p.m., Eastern time, (or an earlier cut-off time if the Fund closes early (the “cut-off time”)) on any day that the PIMCO Government Money Market Fund is open for business will be executed at the net asset value determined as of 5:30 p.m., Eastern time. Orders for exchanges received after the cut-off time on any day that the PIMCO Government Money Market Fund is open for business will be executed at the net asset value determined as of 5:30 p.m., Eastern time, the next day the PIMCO Government Money Market Fund is open for business. Requests to exchange shares of the PIMCO Government Money Market Fund for shares of other Funds of the Trust or any series of PIMCO Equity Series received after 4:00 p.m., Eastern time (or an earlier time if the Fund closes early), will be effected at the next day’s net asset value for those funds.
An excessive number of exchanges may be disadvantageous to the Trust. Therefore, the Trust, in addition to its right to reject any exchange, reserves the right to adopt a policy of terminating the exchange privilege of any shareholder who makes more than a specified number of exchanges in a 12-month period or in any calendar quarter. The Trust reserves the right to modify or discontinue the exchange privilege at any time.
The Trust reserves the right to suspend or postpone redemptions during any period when: (a) trading on the NYSE is restricted, as determined by the SEC, or the NYSE is closed for other than customary weekend and holiday closings; (b) the SEC has by order permitted such suspension; or (c) an emergency, as determined by the SEC, exists, making disposal of portfolio securities or valuation of net assets of a Fund not reasonably practicable.
The Trust is committed to paying in cash all requests for redemptions by any shareholder of record and certain beneficial owners of shares of the Funds, limited in amount with respect to each shareholder during any 90-day period to the lesser of: (i) $250,000; or (ii) 1% of the net asset value of the Trust at the beginning of such period. Although the Trust will normally redeem all shares for cash, it may, in unusual circumstances, redeem amounts in excess of the lesser of (i) or (ii) above by payment in kind of securities held in the Funds’ portfolios, which may be in the form of a pro-rata slice of a Fund’s portfolio (potentially with certain exclusions and modifications), individual securities or a representative basket of securities, in each case, subject to the Trust’s in-kind redemption procedures and related regulatory guidance.
The Trust has adopted procedures under which it may make redemptions-in-kind to shareholders who are affiliated persons of a Fund. Under these procedures, the Trust generally may satisfy a redemption request from an affiliated person in-kind, provided that: (1) the redemption-in-kind is effected at approximately the affiliated shareholder’s proportionate share of the distributing Fund’s current net assets, and thus does not result in the dilution of the interests of the remaining shareholders; (2) the distributed securities are valued in the same manner as they are valued for purposes of computing the distributing Fund’s net asset value; (3) the redemption-in-kind is consistent with the Fund’s Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information; and (4) neither the affiliated shareholder nor any other party with the ability and the pecuniary incentive to influence the redemption-in-kind selects, or influences the selection of, the distributed securities.
The Trust’s Declaration of Trust authorizes the Trust to redeem shares under certain circumstances as may be specified by the Board of Trustees, including small accounts.
In addition to the other methods and notwithstanding any limitations described herein and in each Fund’s prospectus, shareholders with eligible Fund direct accounts may purchase, redeem (sell) and exchange Class A and Class C shares by accessing their accounts online via pimco.com/MyAccountAccess. Except for the PIMCO Municipal Value Funds, shareholders with eligible Fund direct accounts in the Institutional Class may purchase, redeem (sell) and exchange shares by accessing their accounts via pimco.com/InstitutionalAccountAccess. Accordingly, an investor must first establish a Fund direct account by completing and mailing the appropriate account application. Online redemptions are not available for all Fund direct accounts because in certain cases, a signature guarantee may be required.
If a shareholder elects to use Account Access to effect a transaction in a PIMCO Fund or a Fund within the PIMCO Equity Series direct account, the shareholder will be required to establish and use a user ID and password. Shareholders are responsible for keeping their user ID and password private. The Funds will not be liable for relying on any instructions submitted online via Account Access. Submitting transactions online may be difficult (or impossible) during drastic economic or market changes or during other times when communications may be under unusual stress.
180

The Transfer Agent, on behalf of the Trust, will receive and process instructions to purchase, exchange or redeem Class A, Class C, and Institutional Class shares in the applicable Funds presented for processing in accordance with the terms of the applicable prospectus after shareholders have entered their instructions and transmitted their orders online through Account Access. By submitting transaction instructions online through Account Access the Transfer Agent and such other agents as the Trust designates is/are permitted to act on the orders received online via Account Access on behalf of the shareholder. Once an order has been submitted it will not be canceled if it has been received (in good order) and it has been acknowledged online. The online acknowledgement of receipt of an order does not constitute final acceptance of an order. Shareholders will receive a confirmation of their order and/or an account statement at their address of record by mail, which contains information regarding accepted orders. Shareholders are responsible for reviewing any confirmation and/or statement for accuracy and for contacting the Transfer Agent immediately in the event of any error or inaccuracy. Shareholders should contact the Transfer Agent if they believe someone has unauthorized access to their account(s) or password.
The PIMCO Municipal Value Funds are generally available for investment by clients of financial planners and registered investment advisers and a limited number of certain other investors, each as approved from time to time by PIMCO. These investors may be permitted to aggregate the value of accounts in order to meet minimum investment amounts. All investments are subject to approval by PIMCO consistent with PIMCO’s views on the availability of desirable portfolio investments at any given time as driven by the market. Shares of a PIMCO Municipal Value Fund may not be exchanged for shares of any other PIMCO Municipal Value Fund or for shares of any other Fund of the Trust or any series of PIMCO Equity Series.
In order to protect the interests of shareholders, PIMCO may find it necessary to limit new purchases of shares of each of the PIMCO National Municipal Opportunistic Value Fund and PIMCO California Municipal Opportunistic Value Fund when PIMCO determines that allowing additional inflows into those Funds could negatively affect a Fund’s ability to meet the applicable Fund’s investment objective. PIMCO may close the PIMCO National Municipal Opportunistic Value Fund and/or the PIMCO California Municipal Opportunistic Value Fund to (i) initial purchases by new investors or (ii) initial purchases by new investors and subsequent purchases by existing shareholders in PIMCO’s sole discretion. Such a closure will not affect the rights of existing shareholders with respect to shares of the Funds held as of the date of the closure. In addition, during such a closure, the purchase of additional shares of the applicable Fund through dividend reinvestments will continue to be permitted. If the PIMCO California Municipal Opportunistic Value Fund and/or the PIMCO National Municipal Opportunistic Value Fund is closed, PIMCO may re-open the applicable Fund(s) to (i) subsequent purchases by existing shareholders or (ii) initial purchases by new investors and subsequent purchases by existing shareholders, as appropriate in light of market conditions, as determined by PIMCO in its sole discretion. Notice will be provided regarding such closures or re-openings.

Purchases are accepted subject to collection of checks at full value and conversion into federal funds.

Checks drawn on a non-member bank may take up to 15 days to convert into federal funds.

The Trust reserves the right to require payment by wire. The Trust generally does not accept payments made by cash, money order, temporary/starter checks, third party checks, credit cards, traveler’s checks, credit card checks, or checks drawn on non-U.S. banks even if payment may be effected through a U.S. bank. Investors may also elect to purchase additional shares over the phone provided that you have linked a bank account to your direct account. For more information please call 888.87.PIMCO.
Subsequent Purchases of Shares—Class A, Class C and Class C-2 Shares.     The minimum subsequent purchase in any Fund is $50.

Additionally, Class R shares are generally available only to Class R Eligible Plans where Class R shares are held on the books of the Funds through omnibus accounts (either at the plan level or at the level of the financial firm level). Class R shares are not available to retail accounts, non-Class R Eligible Plans, traditional and Roth IRAs (except through certain omnibus accounts), SEPs, SAR-SEPs, SIMPLE IRAs, individual 403(b) plans, or Coverdell Education Savings Accounts. Plan participants may not directly purchase Class R shares through the Distributor.

Before wiring federal funds, the investor must provide purchase instructions to the Transfer Agent. In order to receive the current day’s price, purchase instructions must be received in good order prior to the NYSE Close. Purchase instructions must include the name and signature of authorized person on the account, account name, account number, name of Fund and share class, and amount being wired. Failure to send the accompanying wire on the same day may result in the cancellation of the purchase order. A wire received without order instructions generally will not be processed and may result in a return of wire; however, PIMCO may determine in its sole discretion to process the order based upon the information contained in the wire.
Eligible investors may also purchase additional shares of the Institutional Class online, except for the PIMCO Municipal Value Funds. For more information please call 888.87.PIMCO.
Investors may also purchase Institutional Class, Class M and Administrative Class shares with proceeds derived from an advisory account managed by PIMCO or one of its affiliates. For more information please call 888.87.PIMCO.
Unavailable or Restricted Funds. Certain Funds and/or share classes are not currently offered to the public as of the date of this Statement of Additional Information. Please see the applicable Prospectuses for details.
Additional Information about Purchases. Shares may be purchased at a price equal to their net asset value per share next determined after receipt of an order plus a sales charge (if applicable), which may be imposed either: (i) at the time of the purchase in the case of Class A shares (the “initial sales charge alternative”); or (ii) by the deduction of an ongoing asset-based sales charge in the case of Class C, Class C-2 and Class R shares (the “asset-based sales charge alternative”). In certain circumstances, Class A, Class C and Class C-2 shares are also subject to a CDSC. See “Alternative Purchase Arrangements.” Purchase payments for Class C, C-2 and R shares are fully invested at the net asset value next determined after acceptance of the trade. Purchase payments for Class A shares, less the applicable sales charge, are invested at the net asset value next determined after acceptance of the trade.
All purchase orders (except purchase orders for the PIMCO Government Money Market Fund, which are discussed below) received by the Trust or its designee prior to the NYSE Close on a regular business day are processed at that day’s offering price. However, orders received by the Trust or its designee after the offering price is determined that day from financial firms or certain retirement plans will receive such offering price if the orders were received by the financial firm or retirement plan from its customer or participant prior to such offering price determination and were transmitted to and received by the Trust or its designee prior to such time as agreed upon by the Distributor or Administrator in accordance with an agreement or as allowed by applicable law. Purchase orders will be accepted only on days on which a Fund is open for business. If a purchase order is received on a day when a Fund is not open for business, it will be processed on the next succeeding day the Fund is open for business (according to the succeeding day’s net asset value). The Trust is “open for business” on each day the NYSE is open for trading, which excludes the following holidays: New Year’s Day, Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, Presidents’ Day, Good Friday, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day. If the NYSE is closed due to weather or other extenuating circumstances on a day it would typically be open for business, the Trust reserves the right to treat such day as a Business Day and accept purchase and redemption orders and calculate a Fund’s NAV, in accordance with applicable law. Each Fund reserves the right to close if the primary trading markets of a Fund’s portfolio instruments
183

are closed and the Fund’s management believes that there is not an adequate market to meet purchase, redemption or exchange requests. On any business day when the Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association recommends that the securities markets close trading early, each Fund may close trading early.
Purchase orders for the PIMCO Government Money Market Fund received by the Trust or its designee prior to 5:30 p.m., Eastern time (or an earlier time if the Fund closes early) on a day the Fund is open for business, will be processed at that day’s net asset value plus any applicable sales charge. Orders received after 5:30 p.m., Eastern time (or an earlier time if the Fund closes early), will be effected at the net asset value determined on the next day that the Fund is open for business. However, orders received by the Trust or its designee after 5:30 p.m., Eastern time (or an earlier time if the Fund closes early), will be processed at that day’s net asset value if the orders were received by a financial firm from its customer prior to 5:30 p.m., Eastern time (or an earlier time if the Fund closes early) and were transmitted to and received by the Trust or its designee prior to such time as agreed upon by the Distributor or Administrator in accordance with an agreement or as allowed by applicable law.
Broker-dealers and other financial firms are obligated to transmit purchase orders promptly. The Trust and the Distributor each reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to accept or reject any order for purchase of Fund shares. The sale of shares may be suspended on any day on which the NYSE is closed and, if permitted by the rules of the SEC, when trading on the NYSE is restricted or during an emergency that makes it impracticable for the Funds to dispose of their securities or to determine fairly the value of their net assets, or during any other period as permitted by the SEC for the protection of investors.
Specified Benefit Plans and Other Retirement Accounts. The Funds (except for the PIMCO Municipal Value Funds) make available services and documents for Individual Retirement Accounts (“IRAs”), including Roth IRAs, for which UMB Bank n.a. serves as trustee. The Funds make available services and prototype documents for Simplified Employee Pension Plans (“SEP”). In addition, prototype documents are available for establishing 403(b)(7) custodial accounts with UMB Bank n.a. as custodian. UMB Bank n.a., as custodian of PIMCO funds’ IRA and 403(b)(7) accounts, may charge an account maintenance fee. The charge automatically is deducted from your account in the fourth quarter of each year or, if you close your account, at the time of redemption. If you choose to pay your annual maintenance fee with a check and it is received after the date fees are automatically deducted, it will be applied to the following year.
For purposes of this section, a “Plan Investor” means any specified benefit plan (as defined above in the section entitled “Distribution and Multi-Class Plan”) investing in Class A, Class C, Class C-2 or Class R shares. The term “Plan Investor” does not include an IRA, Roth IRA, SEP IRA, SIMPLE IRA, SAR-SEP IRA, 403(b)(7) custodial account, or Coverdell Education Savings Account.
The minimum initial investment for all Plan Investors, IRAs, Roth IRAs, SEP IRAs, SIMPLE IRAs, SAR-SEP IRAs and 403(b)(7) custodial accounts are set forth in the table below. For Plan Investors invested in a Fund through omnibus account arrangements, there is no minimum initial investment per plan participant. Instead, there is a minimum initial investment per plan, which is agreed upon by the Distributor and the financial firm maintaining the omnibus account. However, any Plan Investor that has existing positions in the Funds and that does not already maintain an omnibus account with a Fund and would like to invest in such Fund is subject to the minimum initial investment set forth in the table below.
Automatic Investment Plan. The Automatic Investment Plan provides for periodic investments into a direct account with the Funds by means of automatic transfers of a designated amount from the shareholder’s bank account. The minimum required in order to establish an Automatic Investment Plan is $250 per Fund (except for the PIMCO Municipal Value Funds for which there is no minimum). Subsequent investments in a direct account associated with an Automatic Investment Plan are subject to a minimum of $50 per Fund. Further information regarding the Automatic Investment Plan is available from the Funds and similar plans may be available from financial firms. You may enroll your direct account online or by completing the appropriate section on the account application, or you may obtain the appropriate Account Options Form by calling 888.87.PIMCO or your financial professional or by visiting pimco.com. Certain Funds and/or share classes may limit the use of the appropriate form and/or may consider such requests to establish an Automatic Investment Plan on a case-by-case basis at the discretion of the Funds.
Automatic Exchange Plan . Further information regarding the Automatic Exchange Plan is available by calling PIMCO Funds at 888.87.PIMCO or your financial professional. You may enroll your direct account online or by
184

completing the Account Options Form, which may be obtained by telephone request or by visiting pimco.com. The Automatic Exchange Plan is not available for the PIMCO Municipal Value Funds and use of the appropriate form may be limited for certain Funds and/or other share classes at the option of the Funds, and as set forth in the Prospectuses. For more information on exchanges, see “Exchange Privileges.”
Automated Clearing House (ACH) Privileges. The ACH network allows electronic transfer from a checking or savings account into a direct account with the Funds. The ACH privilege may be used for initial purchases, subsequent purchases, and for redemptions and other transactions described under “How to Redeem.” Purchase transactions are effected by electronic funds transfers from the investor’s account at a U.S. bank or other financial institution that is an ACH member. To initiate such purchases, please call 888.87.PIMCO. All calls will be recorded. For Class A, Class C and Class C-2 shares the minimum initial investment by ACH is $1,000 per Fund and the subsequent investment by ACH is $50 per Fund. Purchases of Fund shares by ACH are subject to a limit of $100,000 per Fund per day. The Funds reserve the right to waive such limit in their sole discretion.
ACH privileges must be requested on the account application, or may be established on an existing account by completing an Account Options form, which is available by calling 888.87.PIMCO or by visiting pimco.com. Validated signatures from all shareholders of record for the account are required. See “Signature Validation” below. To add this privilege to an account holding Institutional shares please call 888.87.PIMCO. Such privileges apply to each shareholder of record for the Fund account unless and until the Funds receive written instructions from a shareholder of record canceling such privileges. Changes of bank account information must be made by completing a new Account Options form. If telephone privileges are elected, the Fund and its agents may rely on any telephone instructions believed to be genuine and will not be responsible to shareholders for any damage, loss or expenses arising out of such instructions. The Funds reserve the right to amend, suspend or discontinue the ACH privileges at any time without prior notice. The ACH privilege does not apply to shares held in broker “street name” accounts or in other omnibus accounts.
Signature Validation. When a signature validation is called for, a Medallion signature guarantee or Signature Validation Program (“SVP”) stamp may be required. A Medallion signature guarantee is intended to provide signature validation for transactions considered financial in nature, and an SVP stamp is intended to provide signature validation for transactions non-financial in nature. A Medallion signature guarantee or SVP stamp may be obtained from a domestic bank or trust company, broker, dealer, clearing agency, savings association or other financial institution which is participating in a Medallion program or Signature Validation Program recognized by the Securities Transfer Association. PIMCO or the Transfer Agent may reject a Medallion signature guarantee or SVP stamp. Shareholders should contact the Transfer Agent for additional details regarding the Funds’ signature guarantee requirements.
Account Registration and Privilege Changes. Changes in registration or account privileges may be made in writing via letter of instruction or via the Account Options form which can be obtained online at pimco.com or by calling 888.87.PIMCO. Signature validation may be required. See “Signature Validation” above. All correspondence must include the account number and may be submitted using the following methods:

Minimum Account Size
Class A, Class C and Class C-2.     Due to the relatively high cost to the Funds of maintaining small accounts, holders of Class A, Class C and Class C-2 shares are asked to maintain an account balance in each Fund in which the shareholder invests at least equal to the amount necessary to open the type of account involved. If a shareholder’s average balance for any account is below such minimum for a rolling three-month period or longer, the Trust reserves the right (except in the case of retirement accounts) to redeem the shareholder’s remaining shares and close that account. The shareholder’s account will not be liquidated if the reduction in size is due solely to market decline in the value of the shares or another exception available through the Administrator’s policies applies. An investor will receive advance notice of the Trust’s intention to redeem the investor’s shares and close the Fund account and will be given at least 60 days to bring the value of its account up to required minimum.
Institutional Class and Administrative Class.     If, at any time, an investor’s shares in an account do not have a value of at least $100,000 due to redemption by the investor, the Trust reserves the right to redeem an investor’s remaining shares and close the Fund account. An investor’s account will not be liquidated if the reduction in size is due solely to a decline in market value of Fund shares or another exception available through the Administrator’s policies applies. An investor will receive advance notice of the Trust’s intention to redeem the investor’s shares and close the Fund account and will be given at least 60 days to bring the value of its account up to the required minimum.
Transfer on Death Registration.     The Funds may accept “transfer on death” (“TOD”) account registration requests from investors. The laws of a state selected by the Funds in accordance with the Uniform TOD Security Registration Act will govern the registration. The Funds may require appropriate releases and indemnifications from investors as a prerequisite for permitting TOD registration. The Funds may from time to time change these requirements (including by changes to the determination as to which state’s law governs TOD registrations).

Alternative Purchase Arrangements.
Class A, Class C and Class C-2 shares bear sales charges in different forms (i.e., initial, deferred and/or asset-based) and amounts and bear different levels of expenses, as described below. The alternative purchase arrangements described in this Statement of Additional Information are designed to enable a retail investor to choose between purchasing Class A shares, Class C and Class C-2 shares based on all factors to be considered, including the amount and intended length of the investment, the particular Fund and whether the investor intends to exchange shares for shares of other Funds. Generally, when making an investment decision, investors should consider the anticipated life of an intended investment in the Funds, the size of the investment, the accumulated distribution and servicing fees plus contingent deferred sales charges (CDSCs) on Class C and Class C-2 shares, the initial sales charge plus accumulated servicing fees on Class A shares (plus a CDSC in certain circumstances), the possibility that the anticipated higher return on Class A shares due to the lower ongoing charges will offset the initial sales charge paid on such shares, and the difference in the CDSCs applicable to Class A, Class C and Class C-2 shares.
Investors should understand that initial sales charges, servicing and distribution fees and CDSCs are all used directly or indirectly to fund the compensation of broker-dealers or other financial firms that sell or provide services with respect to Class A, Class C and Class C-2 shares. Depending on the arrangements in place at any particular time, a financial firm may have a financial incentive for recommending a particular share class over other share classes.
Institutional Class, I-2, I-3, Administrative Class and Class R shares are sold without sales charges and may have different distribution and service fees than Class A, Class C and Class C-2 shares. See “Distributor and Multi-Class Plan” above for information on share class eligibility and “Purchases, Exchanges and Redemptions” above for investment minimums. Class R shares are only available to specified benefit plan investors. As a result of lower sales charges, distribution and/or service fees, and/or operating expenses, Institutional Class, I-2, I-3, Administrative Class and Class R shares are generally expected to achieve higher investment returns than Class A, Class C or Class C-2 shares. To obtain information about the various share classes or investment minimums please call 888.87.PIMCO.
Class A Shares.     The initial sales charge alternative (Class A shares) might be preferred by investors purchasing shares of sufficient aggregate value to qualify for reductions in the initial sales charge applicable to such shares. Similar reductions are not available on the asset-based sales charge alternative (Class C and Class C-2 shares). Class A shares are subject to a servicing fee but are not subject to a distribution fee and, accordingly, such shares are expected to pay correspondingly higher dividends on a per share basis. However, because initial sales charges are deducted at the time of purchase, not all of the purchase payment for Class A shares is invested initially. Class C or Class C-2 shares might be preferable to investors who wish to have all purchase payments invested initially, although remaining subject to higher distribution and servicing fees and, for certain periods, being subject to a CDSC. An investor who qualifies for an elimination of the Class A shares initial sales charge should also consider whether he or she anticipates redeeming shares in a time period that will subject such shares to a CDSC as described below. Class A shares of the PIMCO Government Money Market and PIMCO Short Asset Investment Funds are not subject to an initial sales charge or a CDSC.
187

Class C and Class C-2 Shares.     The asset-based sales charge alternative (Class C and Class C-2 shares) might be preferred by investors who intend to purchase shares that are not of sufficient aggregate value to qualify for Class A sales charges of 1% or less, who wish to have all purchase payments invested initially, or who are unsure of the intended length of their investment. Class C and Class C-2 shares are not subject to a CDSC after they have been held for one year. Class C shares of the PIMCO Government Money Market Fund are not subject to a CDSC unless acquired by exchanging Class C shares of another Fund.
In determining whether to purchase Class A, Class C or Class C-2 shares, a retail investor should always consider the availability of a waiver or reduction of initial sales charges or a waiver of a CDSC. See generally “Initial Sales Charge Alternative—Class A Shares” and “Waiver of Contingent Deferred Sales Charges” below.
For shares purchased or held through financial firms, the availability of sales charge waivers and discounts may depend on the particular financial firm or type of account through which the shares are purchased or held. The Funds’ sales charge waivers and discounts disclosed in this Statement of Additional Information are available for qualifying purchases made directly from the Distributor and are generally available through financial firms unless otherwise specified in Appendix B to the Funds’ Prospectuses (Financial Firm-Specific Sales Charge Waivers and Discounts). The sales charge waivers and discounts available through certain other financial firms for a Fund are set forth in Appendix B, which may differ from those available for purchases made directly from the Distributor or certain other financial firms. Please contact your financial firm for information regarding sales charge waivers and discounts available to you and the financial firm’s related policies and procedures.
The maximum purchase of Class C or Class C-2 shares of a Fund in a single purchase is $499,999.99 ($249,999.99 for the PIMCO California Intermediate Municipal Bond, PIMCO California Municipal Bond, PIMCO Climate Bond Fund, PIMCO High Yield Municipal Bond, PIMCO Low Duration, PIMCO Low Duration Credit, PIMCO Low Duration Income, PIMCO Municipal Bond, PIMCO National Intermediate Municipal Bond, PIMCO New York Municipal Bond, PIMCO Short-Term, PIMCO Short Duration Municipal Income and PIMCO Total Return ESG Funds). If an investor intends to purchase Class C or Class C-2 shares: (i) for more than one Fund and the aggregate purchase price for all such purchases will exceed $499,999.99 ($249,999.99 for the PIMCO California Intermediate Municipal Bond, PIMCO California Municipal Bond, PIMCO Climate Bond Fund, PIMCO High Yield Municipal Bond, PIMCO Low Duration, PIMCO Low Duration Credit, PIMCO Low Duration Income, PIMCO Municipal Bond, PIMCO National Intermediate Municipal Bond, PIMCO New York Municipal Bond, PIMCO Short-Term, PIMCO Short Duration Municipal Income and PIMCO Total Return ESG Funds) for Class C or Class C-2 shares; or (ii) for one Fund in a series of transactions and the aggregate purchase amount will exceed $499,999.99 ($249,999.99 for the PIMCO California Intermediate Municipal Bond, PIMCO California Municipal Bond, PIMCO Climate Bond Fund, PIMCO High Yield Municipal Bond, PIMCO Low Duration, PIMCO Low Duration Credit, PIMCO Low Duration Income, PIMCO Municipal Bond, PIMCO National Intermediate Municipal Bond, PIMCO New York Municipal Bond, PIMCO Short-Term, PIMCO Short Duration Municipal Income and PIMCO Total Return ESG Funds) for Class C or Class C-2 shares, then in either such event the investor should consider whether purchasing another share class may be in the investor’s best interests. The Funds may refuse any order to purchase shares.
Class R Shares.     Only Class R Eligible Plans may purchase Class R shares. Class R shares are not subject to an initial sales charge or a CDSC but are subject to ongoing service fees of 0.25% of the average daily net asset value of the Class R shares per year and ongoing distribution fees of 0.25% of the average daily net asset value of the Class R shares per year. Servicing fees are used to compensate financial firms for personal services and the maintenance of shareholder accounts. Distribution fees are used to support the firm’s marketing and distribution efforts, such as compensating financial professionals and their financial firms, advertising and promotion. If Class R shares are held over time, these fees may exceed the maximum sales charge than investor would have paid as a shareholder of one of the other share classes.
For a description of the Distribution and Servicing Plans and distribution and servicing fees payable thereunder with respect to Class A, Class C, Class C-2 and Class R shares, see “Distribution and Servicing (12b-1) Plans” in the prospectuses.
Waiver of Contingent Deferred Sales Charges. The CDSC applicable to Class A, Class C and Class C-2 shares is currently waived for:
188

(i) any partial or complete redemption in connection with (a) required minimum distributions to IRA account owners or beneficiaries or (b) distributions to participants in employer-sponsored retirement plans upon attaining age 59 1/2 or on account of death or permanent and total disability (as defined in Section 22(e) of the Internal Revenue Code) that occurs after the purchase of Class A or Class C or Class C-2 shares;
(ii) any partial or complete redemption in connection with a qualifying loan or hardship withdrawal from an employer sponsored retirement plan;
(iii) any complete redemption in connection with a distribution from a qualified employer retirement plan in connection with termination of employment or termination of the employer’s plan and the transfer to another employer’s plan or to an IRA;
(iv) any partial or complete redemption following death or permanent and total disability (as defined in Section 22(e) of the Internal Revenue Code) of an individual holding shares for his or her own account and/or as the last survivor of a joint tenancy arrangement (this provision, however, does not cover the death or disability of an individual holding shares in a fiduciary capacity or as a nominee or agent, nor does it cover the death or disability of the owners, trustees or beneficiaries of a legal entity) provided the redemption is requested within one year of the death or initial determination of disability and provided the death or disability occurs after the purchase of the shares;
(v) any redemption resulting from a return of an excess contribution to a qualified employer retirement plan or an IRA;
(vi) up to 10% per year of the value of all Class A, Class C and Class C-2 shares of the Funds owned by an investor and subject to an Automatic Withdrawal Plan;
(vii) redemptions by current or former Trustees, officers and employees of the Trust or PIMCO Equity Series, and by directors, officers and current or former employees of the Distributor, Allianz, Allianz Global Fund Management or PIMCO if the account was established while employed;
(viii) redemptions effected pursuant to a Fund’s right to involuntarily redeem a shareholder’s Fund account if the aggregate net asset value of shares held in such shareholder’s account is less than a minimum account size specified in such Fund’s prospectus;
(ix) redemptions of shares of any Fund that is combined with another Fund, investment company, or personal holding company by virtue of a merger, acquisition or other similar reorganization transaction;
(x) redemptions by retirement plans that are maintained or sponsored by financial firms, provided the financial firms or their trust companies (or entities performing similar trading/clearing functions) have entered into an agreement with the Distributor (or its affiliates) related to such plans;
(xi) redemptions by a shareholder who is a participant through certain employer sponsored retirement plans that are clients of a financial firm with which the Distributor has an agreement with respect to such purchases;
(xii) redemptions effected by trustees or other fiduciaries who have purchased shares for employer-sponsored plans, the trustee, administrator, fiduciary, broker, trust company or registered investment adviser for which has an agreement with the Distributor with respect to such purchases;
(xiii) redemptions in connection with IRA accounts established with Form 5305-SIMPLE under the Internal Revenue Code for which the Trust is the designated financial institution;
(xiv) redemptions where the shareholder can demonstrate hardship;
(xv) redemptions where there will be minimal cost borne by the Distributor associated with the redemption;
(xvi) an intra-fund exchange of Class A shares for Institutional Class shares where the Class A shares were purchased at NAV and no commission was paid;
189

(xvii) exchanges from a taxable account invested in a PIMCO fund to a PIMCO fund held in an IRA or other qualified retirement plan account for the purpose of making a contribution to such IRA or other qualified retirement plan account;
(xviii) redemptions of shares of any Fund following the public announcement of the Board’s approval of a plan of liquidation for such Fund or for Class A, Class C or Class C-2 shares of such Fund;
(xix) certain transactions where the Distributor did not pay at the time of purchase the amount it normally would have to the broker-dealer; and
(xx) where incorrect information was provided to client/dealer.
What qualifies as “hardship” and “minimal cost” borne by the Distributor will be determined in the sole discretion of the Distributor. The Distributor follows how Internal Revenue Service regulations classify “hardship” – a financial hardship may occur when an individual has an immediate and heavy financial need and the money to be withdrawn from the shareholder’s account is necessary to meet that need. The Distributor generally determines a CDSC waiver or reduction to be of “minimal cost” where the shareholder can demonstrate that the redemption triggering the CDSC was inadvertently executed during the period subject to the CDSC and substantially all of the CDSC period has lapsed.
The Funds may require documentation prior to waiver of the CDSC for any class, including distribution letters, certification by plan administrators, applicable tax forms, death certificates, physicians’ certificates (e.g., with respect to disabilities), etc.
Initial Sales Charge Alternative - Class A Shares.     Class A shares are sold at a public offering price equal to their net asset value per share plus a sales charge. As indicated below under “Class A Deferred Sales Charge,” certain investors who purchase $1,000,000 ($250,000 in the case of the PIMCO California Intermediate Municipal Bond, PIMCO California Municipal Bond, PIMCO Climate Bond, PIMCO High Yield Municipal Bond, PIMCO Low Duration Credit, PIMCO Low Duration Income, PIMCO Municipal Bond, PIMCO National Intermediate Municipal Bond, PIMCO New York Municipal Bond, PIMCO Total Return ESG Funds and PIMCO Total Return Fund V) or more of Class A shares (and thus pay no initial sales charge) of a Fund other than the PIMCO California Short Duration Municipal Income, PIMCO Low Duration, PIMCO Short Duration Municipal Income and PIMCO Short-Term Funds may be subject to a CDSC of up to 1% if they redeem such shares during the first 12 months after their purchase. Certain investors who purchase $250,000 or more of Class A shares of the PIMCO California Short Duration Municipal Income, PIMCO Low Duration, PIMCO Short Duration Municipal Income and PIMCO Short-Term Funds may be subject to a CDSC of up to 1% if they redeem such shares during the first 12 months after their purchase. With respect to purchases of $250,000 or more of Class A shares of the PIMCO California Short Duration Municipal Income, PIMCO Low Duration, PIMCO Short Duration Municipal Income and PIMCO Short-Term Funds, if the financial firm through which the investors purchased their shares does not receive any upfront commission from the Distributor at the time of purchase, such investors will not be subject to a CDSC upon redemption. Class A shares of the PIMCO Government Money Market and PIMCO Short Asset Investment Funds are not subject to an initial sales charge or CDSC.

Income, PIMCO Municipal Bond, PIMCO National Intermediate Municipal Bond, PIMCO New York Municipal Bond and PIMCO Total Return ESG Funds) or more of Class A shares of a Fund other than the PIMCO California Short Duration Municipal Income, PIMCO Low Duration, PIMCO Short Duration Municipal Income and PIMCO Short-Term Funds will be subject to a CDSC of up to 1% if such shares are redeemed during the first 12 months after such shares are purchased. Except with regard to purchases described below under “Sales at Net Asset Value” where no commission is paid, purchasers of $250,000 or more of Class A shares of the PIMCO California Short Duration Municipal Income, PIMCO Low Duration, PIMCO Short Duration Municipal Income and PIMCO Short-Term Funds will be subject to a CDSC of up to 1% if such shares are redeemed during the first 12 months after such shares are purchased. With respect to purchases of $250,000 or more of Class A shares of the PIMCO California Short Duration Municipal Income, PIMCO Low Duration, PIMCO Short Duration Municipal Income and PIMCO Short-Term Funds, if the financial firm through which the investors purchased their shares does not receive any upfront commission from the Distributor at the time of purchase, such investors will not be subject to a CDSC upon redemption. The Class A CDSC does not apply if such purchasers are eligible for a waiver of the CDSC as described under “Waiver of Contingent Deferred Sales Charges” above. See “Class A Deferred Sales Charge” below.
(2)
The Distributor will pay a commission to dealers that sell amounts of $1,000,000 or more of Class A shares according to the following tiered schedule: 1.00% of the first $4,999,999.99, and 0.50% of amounts of $5,000,000 or over. These payments are not made in connection with sales to employer-sponsored plans. The Distributor will then also pay to such dealers a Rule 12b-1 trail fee of 0.25% beginning in the thirteenth month after purchase.
(3)
The Distributor will pay a commission to dealers that sell amounts of $1,000,000 or more of Class A shares of each of these Funds, in each case according to the following tiered schedule: 1.00% of the first $4,999,999.99, and 0.50% of amounts of $5,000,000 or over. These payments are not made in connection with sales to employer sponsored plans. The Distributor will then also pay to such dealers a Rule 12b-1 trail fee of 0.25% beginning in the thirteenth month after purchase.
(4)
The Distributor will pay a commission to dealers that sell amounts of $250,000 or more of Class A shares according to the following tiered schedule: 1.00% of the first $4,999,999.99, and 0.50% of amounts of $5,000,000 or over. These payments are not made in connection with sales to employer-sponsored plans. The Distributor will then also pay to such dealers a Rule 12b-1 trail fee of 0.25% beginning in the thirteenth month after purchase.
(5)
The Distributor will not pay a commission to dealers that sell amounts of $250,000 or more of Class A shares, but the Distributor will pay to such dealers a Rule 12b-1 trail fee of 0.25% beginning immediately upon purchase and will waive the CDSC. If a dealer opts-out of this commission schedule, the dealer will receive a commission from the Distributor according to the following tiered schedule: 1.00% of the first $4,999,999.99, and 0.50% of amounts of $5,000,000 or over. These payments are not made in connection with sales to employer-sponsored plans. In the case where the dealer opts out and is receiving a commission according to the tiered schedule described immediately above, the Distributor will then also pay to such dealers a Rule 12b-1 trail fee of 0.25% beginning in the thirteenth month after purchase, and a CDSC of 1% will apply to redemptions made within 12 months of purchase.
(*)
From time to time, these discounts and commissions may be increased pursuant to special arrangements between the Distributor and certain participating brokers.
(**)
The initial sales charge shown is a percentage of the fund’s public offering price (“POP”), or the price you pay for each share you buy. This price is rounded to the nearest penny. The actual sales charge rate will be shown on your trade confirmation or statement, which—because of rounding—could be more or less than what is shown in the table. Rounding differences could be greater for small purchases or when a fund’s NAV is higher.
Each Fund receives the entire net asset value of its Class A shares purchased by investors (i.e., the gross purchase price minus the applicable sales charge). The Distributor receives the sales charge shown above less any applicable discount or commission “reallowed” to participating brokers in the amounts indicated in the tables above. The Distributor may, however, elect to reallow the entire sales charge to participating brokers for all sales with respect to which orders are placed with the Distributor for any particular Fund during a particular period.
Shares issued pursuant to the automatic reinvestment of income dividends or capital gains distributions are issued at net asset value and are not subject to any sales charges.
192

Under the circumstances described below, investors may be entitled to pay reduced sales charges for Class A shares.
These discounts and commissions may be increased pursuant to special arrangements from time to time agreed upon between the Distributor and certain participating brokers.
Right of Accumulation and Combined Purchase Privilege (Breakpoints).     A Qualifying Investor (as defined below) may qualify for a reduced sales charge on Class A shares (the “Combined Purchase Privilege”) by combining concurrent purchases of the Class A shares of one or more Eligible Funds (as defined below) into a single purchase. In addition, a Qualifying Investor may qualify for a reduced sale charge on Class A shares (the “Right of Accumulation” or “Cumulative Quantity Discount”) by combining the purchase of Class A shares of an Eligible Fund with the current aggregate net asset value of all Class A, Class C and Class C-2 shares of any Eligible Fund held by accounts for the benefit of such Qualifying Investor. An Eligible Fund is a Fund (other than the PIMCO Government Money Market Fund) that offers Class A shares.
The term “Qualifying Investor” refers to:
1.
an individual, such individual’s spouse or domestic partner, as recognized by applicable state law, or such individual’s children under the age of 21 years (each a “family member”) (including family trust* accounts established by such a family member); or
2.
a trustee or other fiduciary for a single trust (except family trusts* noted above), estate or fiduciary account although more than one beneficiary may be involved; or
3.
an employee benefit plan of a single employer.
*
For the purpose of determining whether a purchase would qualify for a reduced sales charge under the Combined Purchase Privilege, Right of Accumulation or Letter of Intent, a “family trust” is one in which a family member, as defined in section (1) above, or a direct lineal descendant(s) of such person is(are) the beneficiary(ies), and such person or another family member, direct lineal ancestor or sibling of such person is(are) the trustee(s).
Class A shares purchased or held through a Plan Investor or any other employer-sponsored benefit program as well as Class A shares purchased at NAV through “wrap accounts” are not counted for purposes of determining whether an investor has qualified for a reduced sales charge through the use of Rights of Accumulation.
Letter of Intent. An investor may also obtain a reduced sales charge on purchases of Class A shares by means of a written Letter of Intent, which expresses an intention to invest not less than $50,000 (or $100,000 in the case of those funds with an initial breakpoint at $100,000) within a period of 13 months in Class A shares of any Eligible Fund(s) (which does not include the PIMCO Government Money Market Fund). The maximum intended investment amount allowable in a Letter of Intent is $1,000,000 (except for Class A shares of the PIMCO California Intermediate Municipal Bond, PIMCO California Municipal Bond, PIMCO California Short Duration Municipal Income, PIMCO Climate Bond Fund, PIMCO High Yield Municipal Bond, PIMCO Low Duration, PIMCO Low Duration Credit, PIMCO Low Duration Income, PIMCO Municipal Bond, PIMCO National Intermediate Municipal Bond, PIMCO New York Municipal Bond, PIMCO Short Asset Investment, PIMCO Short-Term, PIMCO Short Duration Municipal Income and PIMCO Total Return ESG Funds, for which the maximum intended investment amount is $250,000). Each purchase of Class A shares under a Letter of Intent will be made at the public offering price or prices applicable at the time of such purchase to a single purchase of the dollar amount indicated in the Letter. Please note that the value of account(s) for the shareholder(s) linked to the Letter of Intent will be included at the start date of the Letter of Intent. In making computations concerning the amount purchased for purpose of a Letter of Intent, purchases of Class C or Class C-2 shares of Eligible Funds will be included and the Right of Accumulation value of eligible accounts will be included in the computation when the Letter of Intent begins.
Qualifying Investors may purchase shares of the Eligible Funds (which does not include the PIMCO Government Money Market Fund) under a single Letter of Intent. A Letter of Intent is not a binding obligation to purchase the full amount indicated. The minimum initial investment under a Letter of Intent is 5% of such amount. Shares purchased with the first 5% of the amount indicated in the Letter of Intent will be held in escrow (while remaining registered in your name) to secure payment of the higher sales charge applicable to the shares actually purchased in the event the full intended amount is not purchased. If the full amount indicated is not purchased, a sufficient amount of such escrowed shares will be involuntarily redeemed to pay the additional sales charge applicable to the amount actually
193

purchased, if necessary. Dividends on escrowed shares, whether paid in cash or reinvested in additional Eligible Fund shares, are not subject to escrow. When the full amount indicated has been purchased, the escrow will be released.
If an investor wishes to enter into a Letter of Intent in conjunction with an initial investment in Class A shares of a Fund, the investor should complete the appropriate portion of the account application or contact their financial firm. A current Class A shareholder desiring to do so may obtain a form to initiate a Letter of Intent by contacting the Funds at 888.87.PIMCO or their financial firm.
Class A shares purchased or held through a Plan Investor or any other employer-sponsored benefit program as well as Class A shares purchased at NAV through “wrap accounts” are not counted for purposes of determining whether an investor has qualified for a reduced sales charge through the use of a Letter of Intent.
Reinstatement Privilege. A Class A shareholder who paid a sales charge upon the purchase of his or her shares and has caused any or all of his or her shares to be redeemed may reinvest all or any portion of the redemption proceeds in Class A shares of any Eligible Fund at net asset value without any sales charge, provided that such reinvestment is made within 120 calendar days after the redemption or repurchase date. Shares are sold to a reinvesting shareholder at the net asset value next determined. See “How Fund Shares are Priced” in the applicable Fund’s prospectus. If the redemption of Class A shares triggers the imposition of a contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC), such CDSC will be credited to the investor’s account upon reinvestment. A reinstatement pursuant to this privilege will not cancel the redemption transaction and, consequently, any gain or loss so realized may be recognized for federal tax purposes except that no loss may be recognized to the extent that the proceeds are reinvested in shares of the same Fund within 30 days. The reinstatement privilege may be utilized by a shareholder only once per year per account (per 365 days), irrespective of the number of shares redeemed, except that the privilege may be utilized without limit in connection with transactions whose sole purpose is to transfer a shareholder’s interest in a Fund to his or her Individual Retirement Account or other qualified retirement plan account. An investor may exercise the reinstatement privilege by written request sent to the Funds or to the investor’s financial firm. Investors who were not assessed a sales charge upon the purchase of their shares may not utilize the reinstatement privilege with respect to reinvestment of such shares following their redemption.
Sales at Net Asset Value. Each Fund may sell its Class A shares at net asset value without a sales charge to:
(i) current, retired, or former officers, trustees, directors or employees of any of the Trust (including accounts established for former employees or extended family of former employees established while employed), PIMCO Equity Series, Allianz Funds, or Allianz Funds Multi-Strategy Trust, Allianz, Allianz Global Investors U.S. LLC, PIMCO or the Distributor, other affiliates of Allianz Global Investors U.S. LLC and funds advised or subadvised by any such affiliates, in any case at the discretion of PIMCO or the Distributor; their spouse or domestic partner, as recognized by applicable state law, children, siblings, current brother/sister-in-laws, parents, and current father/mother-in-laws (“extended family”), or family trust account for their benefit, or any trust, profit-sharing or pension plan for the benefit of any such person;
(ii) current registered representatives and other full-time employees of broker-dealers that have selling agreements with the Distributor or such persons’ spouse or domestic partner, as recognized by applicable state law, children under 21, and family trust accounts;
(iii) trustees or other fiduciaries purchasing shares through certain group omnibus plans (such as 401(k), 403(b), Health Savings Accounts, 457, Profit Sharing/Keogh, Money Purchase Pension and Defined Benefit; not including individual participant directed accounts (i.e., accounts listed in the Fund’s records as for the benefit of a named individual), SEP-IRAs, SIMPLE IRAs, SARSEP IRAs and 403(b)7 custodial accounts) sponsored by employers, professional organizations or associations, or charitable organizations that qualify for 501(c)(3) status under the Internal Revenue Code;
(iv) retirement plans that are maintained or sponsored by financial firms, provided the financial firms or their trust companies (or entities performing similar trading/clearing functions) have entered into an agreement with the Distributor (or its affiliates) related to such plans;
(v) investors rolling over assets from specified benefit plans to IRAs or other qualified retirement plan accounts if such assets were invested in the Funds or series of PIMCO Equity Series at the time of distribution;
194

(vi) participants investing through accounts known as “wrap accounts” established with broker-dealers approved by the Distributor where such broker-dealers are paid a single, inclusive fee for brokerage and investment management services;
(vii) client accounts of broker-dealers or registered investment advisers affiliated with such broker-dealers (a) that use Class A shares of a Fund in particular investment products or programs or in particular situations in which the broker-dealer will make Class A shares available for purchase at NAV (e.g., through self-directed brokerage service platforms or investment advisory programs) or (b) that, prior to the conversion of Class D shares to Class A shares, offered Class D shares of a Fund in particular investment products or programs or in particular situations and that offers Class A shares of the Fund following the Class D to Class A share class conversion in such investment products or programs or in particular situations;
(viii) accounts for which the company that serves as trustee or custodian either (a) is affiliated with PIMCO or (b) has a specific agreement to serve as trustee or custodian of the account with the Distributor;
(ix) investors following the public announcement of the Board’s approval of a plan of liquidation for such Fund or for another share class of such Fund until the liquidation date;
(x) investors exchanging proceeds of required minimum distributions from an IRA or other qualified retirement plan account invested in a PIMCO fund to a taxable account invested in a PIMCO fund;
(xi) investors making an exchange from a taxable account invested in a PIMCO fund to a PIMCO fund held in an IRA or other qualified retirement plan account for the purpose of making a contribution to the IRA or other qualified retirement plan account;
(xii) investors (a) acquiring Class A shares of a Fund as a result of any automatic conversion of their shares of another class of the Fund into Class A shares; (b) making a subsequent purchase of Class A shares following the automatic conversion of their Class D shares to Class A shares in the same account where such investors previously were able to purchase Class D shares; or (c) making a purchase of Class A shares of any Fund in an account maintained directly with the Trust’s transfer agent where the Distributor has become the default dealer of record for such account following the prior broker-dealer of record’s resignation and the subsequent conversion of Class C or Class C-2 shares held in the account to Class A shares, pursuant to the conversion feature described herein and for so long as the Distributor remains the default dealer of record for such account; and
(xiii) any other person seeking a waiver for which the Distributor determines that there will be minimal cost borne by the Distributor associated with the sale. What qualifies as “minimal cost” borne by the Distributor will be determined in the sole discretion of the Distributor, but will be applied uniformly to all shareholders seeking a waiver for which there will be such minimal cost.
The Distributor will only pay service fees and will not pay any initial commission or other fees to broker-dealers upon the sale of Class A shares to the purchasers described in sub-paragraphs (i) through (xiii) above.
In addition, the Distributor will only pay distribution and service fees and will not pay any initial commission or other fees to broker-dealers upon the sale of Class C or Class C-2 shares of any Fund following the public announcement of the Board’s approval of a plan of liquidation for such Fund.
Notification of Distributor. In many cases, none of the Trust, PIMCO Equity Series, the Distributor or the Transfer Agent will have the information necessary to determine whether a quantity discount or reduced sales charge is applicable to a purchase. An investor or broker-dealer must notify the Distributor whenever a quantity discount or reduced sales charge is applicable to a purchase and must provide the Distributor with sufficient information at the time of purchase to verify that each purchase qualifies for the privilege or discount, including such information as is necessary to obtain any applicable “combined treatment” of an investor’s holdings in multiple accounts. Upon such notification, the investor will receive the lowest applicable sales charge. For investors investing in Class A shares through a financial intermediary, it is the responsibility of the financial intermediary to ensure that the investor obtains the proper quantity discount or reduced sales charge. The quantity discounts and commission schedules described above may be modified or terminated at any time.
195

Class A Deferred Sales Charge. For purchases of Class A shares of all Funds (except the PIMCO California Intermediate Municipal Bond, PIMCO California Municipal Bond, PIMCO California Short Duration Municipal Income, PIMCO Climate Bond Fund, PIMCO Government Money Market, PIMCO High Yield Municipal Bond, PIMCO Low Duration, PIMCO Low Duration Credit, PIMCO Low Duration Income, PIMCO Municipal Bond, PIMCO National Intermediate Municipal Bond, PIMCO New York Municipal Bond, PIMCO Short Asset Investment, PIMCO Short-Term, PIMCO Short Duration Municipal Income and PIMCO Total Return ESG Funds), investors who purchase $1,000,000 or more of Class A shares (and, thus, purchase such shares without any initial sales charge) may be subject to a 1% CDSC if such shares are redeemed within 12 months of their purchase. Certain purchases of Class A shares of the PIMCO California Intermediate Municipal Bond, PIMCO California Municipal Bond, PIMCO Climate Bond Fund, PIMCO High Yield Municipal Bond, PIMCO Low Duration Credit, PIMCO Low Duration Income, PIMCO Municipal Bond, PIMCO National Intermediate Municipal Bond, PIMCO New York Municipal Bond and PIMCO Total Return ESG Funds described above under “Initial Sales Charge Alternative—Class A Shares” may be subject to a CDSC of 1% if such shares are redeemed within 12 months after their purchase. Certain purchases of Class A shares of the PIMCO California Short Duration Municipal Income, PIMCO Low Duration, PIMCO Short Duration Municipal Income and PIMCO Short-Term Funds may be subject to a CDSC of 1% if such shares are redeemed within 12 months after their purchase. With respect to those certain purchases of Class A shares of the PIMCO California Short Duration Municipal Income, PIMCO Low Duration, PIMCO Short Duration Municipal Income and PIMCO Short-Term Funds, if the financial firm through which the investors purchased their shares does not receive any upfront commission from the Distributor at the time of purchase, such investors will not be subject to a CDSC upon redemption. The CDSCs described in this paragraph are sometimes referred to as the “Class A CDSC.”
The Class A CDSC does not apply to Class A shares of the PIMCO Government Money Market and PIMCO Short Asset Investment Funds. However, if Class A shares of these Funds are purchased in a transaction that, for any other Fund, would be subject to the CDSC (i.e., a purchase of $1,000,000 or more ($250,000 or more in the case of the PIMCO California Intermediate Municipal Bond, PIMCO California Municipal Bond, PIMCO Climate Bond, PIMCO High Yield Municipal Bond, PIMCO Low Duration Credit, PIMCO Low Duration Income, PIMCO Municipal Bond, PIMCO National Intermediate Municipal Bond, PIMCO New York Municipal Bond and PIMCO Total Return ESG Funds and $250,000 or more in the case of the PIMCO California Short Duration Municipal Income, PIMCO Low Duration, PIMCO Short Duration Municipal Income and PIMCO Short-Term Funds, unless the financial firm through which the investors purchased their shares does not receive any upfront commission from the Distributor at the time of purchase)) and are subsequently exchanged for Class A shares of any other Fund, a Class A CDSC will apply to the shares of the Fund(s) acquired by exchange for a period of 12 months from the date of the exchange. For Class A shares outstanding for 12 months or more, the Distributor may also pay participating brokers annual servicing fees of 0.25% (0.10% for the PIMCO Government Money Market Fund) of the net asset value of such shares.
Calculation of CDSC on Shares Purchased After December 31, 2001. A contingent deferred sales charge (CDSC) may be imposed on Class A, Class C or Class C-2 shares under certain circumstances. A CDSC is imposed on shares redeemed within a certain number of years after their purchase. When shares are redeemed, any shares acquired through the reinvestment of dividends or capital gains distributions will be redeemed first and will not be subject to any CDSC. For the redemption of all other shares, the CDSC will be based on either the shareholder’s original per-share purchase price or the then current net asset value of the shares being sold, whichever is lower. CDSCs will be deducted from the proceeds of the shareholder’s redemption, not from the amounts remaining in the shareholder’s account. In determining whether a CDSC is payable, it is assumed that the shareholder will redeem first the lot of shares that will incur the lowest CDSC. Whether a CDSC is imposed and the amount of the CDSC will depend on the number of years since the investor purchased the shares being redeemed. See the applicable Fund’s prospectus for information about any applicable CDSCs.
Class C and Class C-2 shares of each Fund will automatically convert into Class A shares of the same Fund after they have been held for eight years. See each Fund’s prospectus for information about the conversion of Class C and Class C-2 shares to Class A shares. The Class C and Class C-2 CDSC is currently waived in connection with certain redemptions as described above under “Alternative Purchase Arrangements—Waiver of Contingent Deferred Sales Charges.” For more information about the Class C and Class C-2 CDSC, call the PIMCO Funds at 888.87.PIMCO. For investors invested in Class C or Class C-2 shares through a financial intermediary, it is the responsibility of the financial intermediary to ensure that the investor is credited with the proper holding period for the shares redeemed.
196

Except as otherwise disclosed herein or in the appropriate Prospectus(es), Class C or Class C-2 shares of a Fund that are received in an exchange for Class C or Class C-2 shares, respectively, of another Fund will be subject to a CDSC to the same extent as the shares exchanged. In addition, Class C or Class C-2 shares that are received in such an exchange will convert into Class A shares at the same time as the original shares would have converted into Class A shares. Class C or Class C-2 shares received in exchange for Class C or Class C-2 shares, respectively, with a different CDSC period will have the same CDSC period as the shares exchanged. Furthermore, shares that are received in an exchange will be subject to the same CDSC calculation as the shares exchanged. In other words, shares received in exchange for shares purchased after December 31, 2001 will be subject to the same manner of CDSC calculation as the shares exchanged.
Conversion of Class C and Class C-2 Shares Purchased Through Reinvestment of Distributions. For purposes of determining the date on which Class C or Class C-2 shares convert into Class A shares, a Class C or Class C-2 share purchased through the reinvestment of dividends or capital gains distributions (a “Distributed Share”) will be considered to have been purchased on the purchase date (or deemed purchase date) of the Class C or Class C-2 share through which such Distributed Share was issued.
Conversion of Class C and Class C-2 “Free Shares”. In addition, any Class C or Class C-2 shares for which the Transfer Agent cannot determine a holding period (commonly known as “Free Shares”) may, depending upon system settings, convert to Class A shares even if such Class C or Class C-2 Free Shares have been held for less than eight years. Free Shares typically arise with respect to reinvested dividends not associated with purchased shares.
Conversion of Class C shares in “Orphaned Accounts”. In addition, any Class C shares held in Orphaned Accounts (as defined below) will automatically convert into Class A shares of the same Fund. Certain shareholder accounts are maintained with the Trust’s Transfer Agent and list a broker-dealer of record (“Prior Broker-Dealer of Record”) other than the Distributor, and if, subsequently, such Prior Broker-Dealer of Record resigns from the account resulting in such account being held directly with the Trust and the Distributor becoming the default dealer of record for such account, then such account would be referred to as an “Orphaned Account.”
Asset-Based Sales Charge Alternative – Class C and Class C-2 Shares. Class C and Class C-2 shares are sold at their current net asset value without any initial sales charge. A CDSC is imposed if an investor redeems Class C or Class C-2 shares within a certain time period after their purchase. When shares are redeemed, any shares acquired through the reinvestment of dividends or capital gains distributions will be redeemed first and will not be subject to any CDSC. For the redemption of all other shares, the CDSC will be based on either the shareholder’s original per-share purchase price or the then current net asset value of the shares being sold, whichever is lower. CDSCs will be deducted from the proceeds of the shareholder’s redemption, not from the amounts remaining in the shareholder’s account. In determining whether a CDSC is payable, it is assumed that the shareholder will redeem first the lot of shares that will incur the lowest CDSC. All of an investor’s purchase payments are invested in shares of the Fund(s) selected.
Any CDSC imposed on redemption of Class C or Class C-2 shares is paid to the Distributor. For investors investing in Class C or Class C-2 shares through a financial intermediary, it is the responsibility of the financial intermediary to ensure that the investor is credited with the proper holding period for the shares redeemed. The automatic conversion of Class C or Class C-2 shares to Class A shares described above will be executed without any sales charge, fee or other charge. After the conversion takes place, the shares will be subject to all features and expenses of Class A shares.
The manner of calculating the CDSC on Class C or Class C-2 shares is described above under “Calculation of CDSC on Shares Purchased After December 31, 2001.” Except as described below, for sales of Class C or Class C-2 shares made and services rendered to Class C or Class C-2 shareholders, the Distributor expects to make payments to broker-dealers, at the time the shareholder purchases Class C or Class C-2 shares of a Fund. The Distributor does not expect to make any payment for sales of Class C shares or services rendered for the PIMCO Government Money Market Fund. For sales of Class C or Class C-2 shares made to participants making periodic purchases of not less than $50 through certain employer sponsored savings plans that are clients of a broker-dealer with which the Distributor has an agreement with respect to such purchases, no payments are made at the time of purchase. Financial firms that receive distribution and/or service fees may in turn pay and/or reimburse all or a portion of these fees to their customers. During such periods as may from time to time be designated by the Distributor, the Distributor will pay an additional amount of up to 0.50% of the purchase price on sales of Class C or Class C-2 shares of all or selected Funds
197

purchased to each broker-dealer that obtains purchase orders in amounts exceeding thresholds established from time to time by the Distributor.
In addition, after the time of shareholder purchase for sales of Class C shares made and services rendered to Class C shareholders, the Distributor expects to make annual payments to broker-dealers, as follows:

Applies only to those Funds that commenced operations before July 31, 2011. For Funds that commenced operations on or after July 31, 2011, the Distributor may make annual payments to broker-dealers with respect to such Funds’ Class C shares up to a maximum of 1.00%, subject to: (i) a separate agreement with the broker for payment of a different amount; or (ii) such different amount as disclosed in this Statement of Additional Information from time to time.
**
Paid with respect to shares outstanding for one year or more (or shorter period if the Distributor has an agreement with the broker to that effect) so long as the shares remain outstanding, and calculated as a percentage of the net asset value of such shares.
In addition, after the time of shareholder purchase for sales of Class C-2 shares made and services rendered to Class C-2 shareholders, the Distributor expects to make annual payments to broker-dealers, as follows:

Paid with respect to shares outstanding for one year or more (or shorter period if the Distributor has an agreement with the broker to that effect) so long as the shares remain outstanding, and calculated as a percentage of the net asset value of such shares.
Asset-Based Sales Charge Alternative – Class R Shares. Class R shares are sold at their current net asset value without any initial sales charge. The full amount of the investor’s purchase payment will be invested in shares of the Fund(s). Class R shares are not subject to a CDSC upon redemption by an investor. For sales of Class R shares made and services rendered to Class R shareholders, the Distributor expects to make payments to broker-dealers and, with respect to servicing fees, other financial intermediaries (which may include specified benefit plans, their service providers and their sponsors), at the time the shareholder purchases Class R shares, of up to 0.50% (representing up to 0.25% distribution fees and up to 0.25% servicing fees) of the purchase.
Information for All Share Classes. Broker-dealers and other financial intermediaries provide varying arrangements for their clients to purchase and redeem Fund shares. Some may establish higher minimum investment requirements than set forth above. Firms may arrange with their clients for other investment or administrative services and may independently establish and charge transaction fees and/or other additional amounts to their clients for such services, which charges would reduce clients’ return. Firms also may hold Fund shares in nominee or street name as agent for and on behalf of their customers. In such instances, the Trust’s Transfer Agent will have no information with respect to or control over accounts of specific shareholders. Such shareholders may obtain access to their accounts and information about their accounts only from their broker. In addition, certain privileges with respect to the purchase and redemption of shares or the reinvestment of dividends may not be available through such firms. Some firms may participate in a program allowing them access to their clients’ accounts for servicing including, without limitation,
198

transfers of registration and dividend payee changes; and may perform functions such as generation of confirmation statements and disbursement of cash dividends.
Exchange Privileges
Class A, Class C, Class C-2 and Class R Shares.     A shareholder generally may exchange Class A, Class C, Class C-2 and Class R shares of any Fund for the same Class of shares of any other Fund in an account with identical registration on the basis of their respective net asset values. However, a sales charge will apply on exchanges of the following if no other sales charge waiver continues to apply: (i) Class A shares of any Fund on which no sales charge was paid at the time of initial purchase due to a financial firm-specific sales charge waiver; (ii) Class A shares of the PIMCO Short Asset Investment Fund purchased on or after December 2, 2019; and (iii) Class A shares of the PIMCO Government Money Market Fund on which no sales charge was paid at the time of purchase. In addition, sales charges will apply on exchanges for shares of Funds for which sales may be suspended to new investors or as otherwise provided in the applicable Fund’s prospectus or in this Statement of Additional Information.
For Class R shares, specified benefit plans may also limit exchanges to Funds offered as investment options in the plan and exchanges may only be made through the plan administrator.
Shares of one Class of a Fund may also be exchanged directly for shares of another Class of the same Fund (an “intra-fund exchange”), as described (and subject to the conditions and restrictions set forth) under “Distribution of Trust Shares—Purchases, Exchanges and Redemptions” in this Statement of Additional Information. There are currently no other exchange fees or charges. Exchanges are subject to any minimum initial and subsequent investment minimum requirements for each share class of each Fund, except with respect to exchanges effected through the Trust’s Automatic Exchange Plan. An exchange (other than an intra-fund exchange) will constitute a taxable sale for federal income tax purposes.
Investors who maintain their account with the Funds may exchange shares by a written exchange request sent to PIMCO Funds, P.O. Box 219294, Kansas City, MO 64121-9294 or, unless the investor has specifically declined telephone exchange privileges on the account application or elected in writing not to utilize telephone exchanges, by a telephone request to PIMCO Funds at 888.87.PIMCO. Exchanges of an amount of $10 million or more must be submitted in writing by an Authorized Person. The Trust reserves the right to accept exchanges from the PIMCO Government Money Market Fund of $10 million or more via telephone. The Trust will employ reasonable procedures to confirm that instructions communicated by telephone are genuine, and may be liable for any losses due to unauthorized or fraudulent instructions if it fails to employ such procedures. The Trust will require a form of personal identification prior to acting on a caller’s telephone instructions, will provide written confirmations of such transactions and will record telephone instructions. To request an exchange, call 888.87.PIMCO if there will be no change in the registered name or address of the shareholder. Telephone exchanges, for all Funds except the PIMCO Government Money Market Fund, may be made between 9:00 a.m., Eastern time and the NYSE Close on any day the Exchange is open (generally weekdays other than normal holidays). For the PIMCO Government Money Market Fund, orders for exchanges accepted prior to 5:30 p.m., Eastern time, (or an earlier cut-off time if the Fund closes early) on a day that the PIMCO Government Money Market Fund is open for business will be executed at the net asset value determined as of 5:30 p.m., Eastern time.
With respect to Class C and Class C-2 shares, or Class A shares subject to a CDSC, if less than all of an investment is exchanged out of a Fund, any portion of the investment exchanged will be from the lot of shares that would incur the lowest CDSC if such shares were being redeemed rather than exchanged.
Except as otherwise disclosed in the applicable Prospectus(es), shares that are received in an exchange will be subject to the same CDSC as the shares exchanged.
Shareholders should take into account the effect of any exchange on the applicability of any CDSC that may be imposed upon any subsequent redemption.
Investors may also select the Automatic Exchange Plan, which establishes automatic periodic exchanges, if applicable. For further information on automatic exchanges see “How to Buy Shares—Automatic Exchange Plan” above.
199

Institutional Class, Class M, I-2, I-3 and Administrative Class Shares. Except with respect to exchanges for shares of the PIMCO Municipal Value Funds or Funds for which sales may be suspended to new investors or as provided in the applicable Fund’s prospectus or in this Statement of Additional Information, a shareholder may exchange Institutional Class, Class M, I-2, I-3 and Administrative Class Shares of any Fund for the same Class of shares of any other Fund in an account with identical registration on the basis of their respective net asset values. An investor may also exchange Class M shares of a Fund for Institutional Class shares of any other Fund of the Trust that offers Institutional Class shares (except for the PIMCO Municipal Value Funds) based on the respective NAVs of the shares involved. An investor may also exchange shares of a Fund (except for the PIMCO Municipal Value Funds) for shares of the same class of a series of PIMCO Equity Series. Class M shares of a Fund may also be exchanged for Institutional Class shares of a series of PIMCO Equity Series. An investor may exchange applicable Institutional Class, Class M and Administrative Class shares of a Fund by following the redemption procedure described below under “Written Requests – Institutional Class, Class M and Administrative Class” or, if the investor has elected the telephone redemption option, by calling the Trust at 888.87.PIMCO. Investors may contact their financial intermediary regarding exchanges of I-2 and I-3 shares. Exchanges of an amount of $10 million or more must be submitted in writing by an Authorized Person (as defined below under “Written Requests – Institutional Class, Class M and Administrative Class shares). The Trust reserves the right to accept exchanges from the PIMCO Government Money Market Fund of $10 million or more via telephone. Except for the PIMCO Municipal Value Funds, eligible investors who maintain their Institutional Class share account direct with the Funds may submit a request to exchange Fund shares by accessing their account online via pimco.com/InstitutionalAccountAccess.
PIMCO Municipal Value Funds. Shares of each PIMCO Municipal Value Fund may not be exchanged for shares of any other PIMCO Municipal Value Fund or any other Fund of the Trust or any shares of a series of PIMCO Equity Series.
All Share Classes. The Trust reserves the right to refuse exchange purchases (or purchase and redemption and/or redemption and purchase transactions) if, in the judgment of an Adviser or a Fund’s Sub-Adviser, such transaction would adversely affect a Fund and its shareholders. In particular, a pattern of transactions characteristic of “market timing” strategies may be deemed by an Adviser to be detrimental to a Trust or a particular Fund. Although the Trust has no current intention of terminating or modifying the exchange privilege, it reserves the right to do so at any time. Except as otherwise permitted by the SEC, the Trust will give 60 days’ advance notice to shareholders of any termination or material modification of the exchange privilege. Because the Funds will not always be able to detect market timing activity, investors should not assume that the Funds will be able to detect or prevent all market timing or other trading practices that may disadvantage the Funds. For example, it is more difficult for the Funds to monitor trades that are placed by omnibus or other nominee accounts because the broker, retirement plan administrator, fee-based program sponsor or other financial intermediary maintains the record of the applicable Fund’s underlying beneficial owners. Also, the Funds do not monitor the PIMCO Funds of Funds for purposes of detecting frequent or short-term trading practices with respect to shares of the Funds. For further information about exchange privileges, contact your broker-dealer or other financial firm or call 888.87.PIMCO.
How to Sell (Redeem) Shares
Redemptions of Class A, Class C, Class C-2 and Class R Shares.     Depending on how an investor holds shares and the elections made, eligible Class A, Class C, Class C-2 or Class R shares may be redeemed through an investor’s broker-dealer or other financial firm, or by telephone, online by submitting a written redemption request to the Funds’ Transfer Agent, through an Automatic Withdrawal Plan, or by electronic transfer to an investor’s checking or savings account through the Automated Clearing House (ACH) network, if available. Class R shares may be redeemed only through the plan administrator, and not directly by the plan participant.
A CDSC may apply to redemptions of Class A, Class C or Class C-2 shares. See “Alternative Purchase Arrangements” above. Shares are redeemed at their net asset value next determined after a redemption request has been received as described below, less any applicable CDSC. There is no charge by the Distributor (other than an applicable CDSC) with respect to redemptions; however, a broker-dealer or other financial firm that processes a redemption for an investor may charge customary fees for its services (which may vary).
All redemption requests (except redemption requests for the PIMCO Government Money Market Fund, which are discussed below) received by the Trust or its designee prior to the NYSE Close on a regular business day are processed at that day’s net asset value, less any applicable CDSC. However, redemption requests received by the Trust or its
200

designee after the net asset value is determined that day from financial firms or certain retirement plans will receive such net asset value (less any applicable CDSC) if the redemption requests were received by the financial firm or retirement plan from its customer or participant prior to such net asset value determination and were transmitted to and received by the Trust or its designee prior to such time as agreed upon by the Distributor or Administrator in accordance with an agreement or as allowed by applicable law. Redemption requests will be accepted only on days on which a Fund is open for business. If a redemption request is received on a day when a Fund is not open for business, it will be processed on the next succeeding day the Fund is open for business (according to the succeeding day’s net asset value). Broker-dealers and other financial firms are obligated to transmit redemption requests promptly.
Redemption requests for the PIMCO Government Money Market Fund received by the Trust or its designee prior to 5:30 p.m., Eastern time (or an earlier time if the Fund closes early) on a day the Fund is open for business, will be processed at that day’s net asset value. Orders received after 5:30 p.m., Eastern time (or an earlier time if the Fund closes early), will be effected at the net asset value determined on the next day that the Fund is open for business. However, redemption requests received by the Trust or its designee after 5:30 p.m., Eastern time (or an earlier time if the Fund closes early), will be processed at that day’s net asset value if the redemption requests were received by a financial firm from its customer prior to 5:30 p.m., Eastern time (or an earlier time if the Fund closes early) and were transmitted to and received by the Trust or its designee prior to such time as agreed upon by the Distributor or Administrator in accordance with an agreement or as allowed by applicable law.
Redemptions of Fund shares may be suspended when trading on the NYSE is restricted or during an emergency that makes it impracticable for the Funds to dispose of their securities or to determine fairly the value of their net assets, or during any other period as permitted by the SEC for the protection of investors. Under these and other unusual circumstances, the Trust may suspend redemptions or postpone payments for more than seven days, as permitted by law.
A shareholder’s original account application (if investing directly with the Trust) permits the shareholder to redeem by written request and by telephone (unless the shareholder specifically elects not to utilize telephone redemptions) and to elect one or more of the additional redemption procedures described below. A shareholder may change the instructions indicated on his or her original account application, or may request additional redemption options, only by transmitting a written direction to the Funds’ Transfer Agent. Requests to institute or change any of the additional redemption procedures will require a signature validation.
Redemptions of an amount of $10 million or more must be submitted in writing by an Authorized Person. The Trust reserves the right to accept redemptions of $10 million or more via telephone for the PIMCO Government Money Market Fund.
Redemption proceeds of Class A, Class C, Class C-2 and Class R shares will normally be mailed to the redeeming shareholder within three calendar days or, in the case of wire transfer or Automated Clearing House (ACH) redemptions, sent to the designated bank account within one business day, but may take up to seven days (except for the PIMCO Government Money Market Fund). ACH redemptions may be received by the bank on the second or third business day. In cases where shares have recently been purchased by personal check, redemption proceeds may be withheld until the check has been collected, which may take at least 10 days. To avoid such withholding, investors should purchase shares by certified or bank check or by wire transfer. Except for the PIMCO Government Money Market Fund, redemption proceeds of Institutional Class, Administrative Class and Class M shares will ordinarily be wired to the investor’s bank within one business day after the redemption request, but may take up to seven days. Redemption proceeds will be sent by wire only to the bank name designated on the account application. An investor may redeem (sell) I-2 or I-3 shares through the investor’s financial firm. Investors do not pay any fees or other charges to the Trust when selling I-2 or I-3 shares. Please contact the financial firm for details.
With respect to redemptions by wire from the PIMCO Government Money Market Fund, subject to the restrictions on order effectiveness set forth above in this section, redemption proceeds will normally be wired to the redeeming shareholder on the same business day that the redemption request is received if the redemption order is accepted by the Fund or its designee prior to the NYSE Close on a day the Fund is open for business. In such case, redemption proceeds will normally be paid by the close of the Federal Reserve wire transfer system (normally, 6:00 p.m., Eastern time).
201

Written Requests – Class A, Class C and Class R Shares.     To redeem Class A, Class C and Class R shares held in a Fund account in writing (whether or not represented by certificates), a shareholder must send the following items to the Transfer Agent, DST Asset Manager Solutions, Inc., at PIMCO Funds, P.O. Box 219294, Kansas City, MO 64121-9294:
(1) a written request for redemption signed by all registered owners exactly as the account is registered on the Transfer Agent’s records, including fiduciary titles, if any, and specifying the account number and the dollar amount or number of shares to be redeemed;
(2) for certain redemptions described below, a validation of all signatures on the written request or on the share certificate or accompanying stock power, if required, as described under “Signature Validation”;
(3) any share certificates issued for any of the shares to be redeemed (see “Certificated Shares” below); and
(4) any additional documents that may be required by the Trust or the Transfer Agent for redemption by corporations, partnerships or other organizations, executors, administrators, trustees, custodians or guardians, or if the redemption is requested by anyone other than the shareholder(s) of record.
Transfers of shares are subject to the same requirements. A signature validation is not required for a redemption requested by and payable to all shareholders of record for the account that is to be sent to the address of record for that account. To avoid delay in redemption or transfer, shareholders having any questions about these requirements should contact the Transfer Agent in writing or call PIMCO Funds at 888.87.PIMCO before submitting a request. Redemption or transfer requests will not be honored until all required documents have been completed by the shareholder and received by the Transfer Agent.
The foregoing written request procedure does not apply to shares held in “street name” accounts. Shareholders whose shares are held in “street name” accounts must redeem through their broker-dealer or other financial intermediary. Plan Investor participants must redeem through their plan administrator.
If the proceeds of the redemption: (i) are to be paid to a person other than the record owner; (ii) are to be sent to an address other than the address of the account on the Transfer Agent’s records; or (iii) are to be paid to a corporation, partnership, trust or fiduciary, the signature(s) on the redemption request and on the certificates, if any, or stock power must be validated as described above.
Written Requests – Institutional Class, Class M and Administrative Class Shares.     To redeem Institutional Class, Class M and Administrative Class shares held in a fund account in writing, a shareholder or its Authorized Person must send the request stating the Fund from which the shares are to be redeemed, the class of shares, the number of shares or dollar amount to be redeemed and the account number. The request must be signed by the appropriate persons designated on the Account Application (“Authorized Person”) to the following:

All redemptions, whether initiated by phone, mail, fax or e-mail, will be processed in a timely manner, and proceeds will be forwarded by wire in accordance with the redemption policies of the Trust detailed below. See “Other Redemption Information.”
202

Telephone Redemptions.     The Funds accept telephone requests for redemption of uncertificated shares held in Fund accounts, except (i) for investors who have specifically declined telephone redemption privileges on the account application or elected in writing not to utilize telephone redemptions, and (ii) except as otherwise described herein, redemption requests for an amount of $10 million or more (the Trust reserves the right to accept redemptions of $10 million or more via telephone for the PIMCO Government Money Market Fund). The proceeds of a telephone redemption will be sent to the record shareholder at his or her record address. Changes in account information must be made in a written authorization with a signature validation. See “Signature Validation.” Telephone redemptions will not be accepted during the 30-day period following any change in an account’s record address. This redemption option does not apply to shares held in broker “street name” accounts. Shareholders whose shares are held in broker “street name” accounts must redeem through their broker and will be subject to that broker’s policies and procedures for redemptions. Plan participants must redeem through their plan administrator.
By completing an account application, an investor agrees that the Funds and their agents shall not be liable for any loss incurred by the investor by reason of the Funds accepting unauthorized telephone redemption requests for his/her account if the Funds reasonably believe the instructions to be genuine. Thus, shareholders risk possible losses in the event of a telephone redemption not authorized by them. The Funds may accept telephone redemption instructions from any person identifying himself as the owner of an account or the owner’s broker where the owner has not declined in writing to utilize this service. The Funds will employ reasonable procedures to confirm that instructions communicated by telephone are genuine, and may be liable for any losses due to unauthorized or fraudulent instructions if it fails to employ such procedures. The Funds will require a form of personal identification prior to acting on a caller’s telephone instructions, will provide written confirmations of such transactions and will record telephone instructions.
A shareholder making a telephone redemption should call PIMCO Funds at 888.87.PIMCO and state: (i) the name of the shareholder as it appears on their account statement; (ii) his/her account number with the applicable Fund; (iii) the amount to be withdrawn; and (iv) the name of the person requesting the redemption. Usually the proceeds are sent to the investor on the next business day after the redemption is effected, provided the redemption request is received prior to the NYSE Close that day (or, for the PIMCO Government Money Market Fund, prior to 5:30 p.m., Eastern time (or an earlier time if the Fund closes early) on each day the NYSE is open for business). If the redemption request is received after the NYSE Close, the redemption is effected on the following business day at that day’s net asset value and the proceeds are usually sent to the investor on the second following business day. The Funds reserve the right to terminate or modify the telephone redemption service at any time. During times of severe disruptions in the securities markets, the volume of calls may make it difficult to redeem by telephone, in which case a shareholder may wish to send a written request for redemption as described under “Written Requests” above. Telephone communications may be recorded.
Redemptions through the Automated Clearing House (ACH) Privileges.     If a shareholder has established ACH privileges, the shareholder may redeem shares by telephone, in writing or online (if eligible) and have the redemption proceeds sent to a designated account at a financial institution. To use ACH privileges for redemptions, call PIMCO Funds at 888.87.PIMCO. Subject to the limitations set forth above under “Telephone Redemptions,” the Funds or their agents, a Trust and the Transfer Agent or their agents may rely on instructions by any registered owner believed to be genuine and will not be responsible to any shareholder for any loss, damage or expense arising out of such instructions. Requests received by the Funds and their agents prior to the NYSE Close on a business day (or, for the PIMCO Government Money Market Fund, prior to 5:30 p.m., Eastern time (or an earlier time if the Fund closes early) on each day the NYSE is open for business) will be processed at the net asset value on that day and the proceeds (less any CDSC) will normally be sent to the designated bank account on the following business day and received by the bank on the second or third business day. If the redemption request is received after the NYSE Close (or, for the PIMCO Government Money Market Fund, after 5:30 p.m., Eastern time (or an earlier time if the Fund closes early) on a day the NYSE is open for business), the redemption is effected on the following business day. Shares purchased by check may not be redeemed through ACH until such shares have been owned (i.e., paid for) for at least 10 calendar days. The ACH privilege may not be used to redeem shares held in certificated form.
Changes in bank account information must be made by completing the Account Options form, signed by all owners of record of the account, with all signatures validated. See “Signature Validation.” See “Automated Clearing House (ACH) Privileges” for information on establishing the ACH privilege. The Funds may terminate the ACH privilege at any time without notice to its shareholders. This redemption option does not apply to shares held in “street name” accounts. Shareholders whose shares are held in “street name” accounts must redeem through their financial
203

firm and will be subject to that firm’s policies and procedures for redemptions. Plan participants must redeem through their plan administrator. The ACH privilege may not be available to all Funds and/or share classes.
Expedited Wire Transfer Redemptions.     If a shareholder holding shares in a Fund account has given authorization for expedited wire redemption, shares can be redeemed and the proceeds sent by federal wire transfer to a single previously designated bank account. Requests received by the Funds prior to the NYSE Close will result in shares being redeemed that day at the next determined net asset value (less any CDSC, if applicable). Normally the proceeds will be sent to the designated bank account the following business day. The bank must be a member of the Federal Reserve wire system. Delivery of the proceeds of a wire redemption request may be delayed by the Funds for up to seven days if the Funds deem it appropriate under the current market and other conditions. Once authorization is on file with the Funds, they will honor requests by any person identifying himself/herself as the owner of an account or the owner’s broker by telephone at 888.87.PIMCO or by written instructions. The Funds cannot be responsible for the efficiency of the Federal Reserve wire system or the shareholder’s bank. The Funds do not currently charge for wire transfers. The shareholder is responsible for any charges imposed by the shareholder’s bank. The Funds reserve the right to terminate the wire redemption privilege. Shares purchased by check may not be redeemed by wire transfer until such shares have been owned (i.e., paid for) for at least 10 calendar days. Expedited wire transfer redemptions may be authorized by sending instructions to the Funds. Wire redemptions may not be used to redeem shares in certificated form. To change the name of the single bank account designated to receive wire redemption proceeds, it is necessary to send a written request with signatures validated to PIMCO Funds, P.O. Box 219294, Kansas City, MO 64121-9294. See “Signature Validation.” This redemption option does not apply to shares held in broker “street name” accounts. Shareholders whose shares are held in broker “street name” accounts must redeem through their broker and will be subject to that broker’s policies and procedures for redemptions. Plan participants must redeem through their plan administrator.
Certificated Shares.     The Trust no longer issues share certificates. To redeem shares for which certificates have been issued, the certificates must be mailed to or deposited with the Trust, duly endorsed or accompanied by a duly endorsed stock power or by a written request for redemption. Signatures must be validated as described under “Signature Validation” above. Further documentation may be requested from institutions or fiduciary accounts, such as corporations, custodians (e.g., under the Uniform Gifts to Minors Act), executors, administrators, trustees or guardians (“institutional account owners”). The redemption request and stock power must be signed exactly as the account is registered, including indication of any special capacity of the registered owner.
Automatic Withdrawal Plan.     An investor who owns or buys shares of PIMCO Funds having a net asset value of $5,000 or more (may be lower for a Required Minimum Distribution or Inherited IRA) may open an Automatic Withdrawal Plan and have a designated sum of money paid periodically to the investor or another person. The minimum redemption amount for an Automatic Withdrawal Plan is $50 per Fund. Such a plan may be established by completing the appropriate section of the account application, completing Account Options Form or by obtaining the appropriate form from the Trust or your financial firm. If an Automatic Withdrawal Plan is set up after the account is established providing for payment to a person other than the record shareholder or to an address other than the address of record, a signature validation is required. See “Signature Validation.” In the case of Uniform Gifts to Minors or Uniform Transfers to Minors accounts, the application must state that the proceeds will be for the beneficial interest of the minor. Shares in a plan account are redeemed at net asset value (less any applicable CDSC) to make each withdrawal payment. Any applicable CDSC may be waived for certain redemptions under an Automatic Withdrawal Plan. See “Alternative Purchase Arrangements—Waiver of Contingent Deferred Sales Charges” above.
Redemptions for the purpose of withdrawals are ordinarily made on the business day selected by the investor at that day’s closing net asset value. Checks are normally mailed on the following business day. If the date selected by the investor falls on a weekend or holiday, the Funds will normally process the redemption on the preceding business day. Payment will be made to any person the investor designates; however, if the shares are registered in the name of a trustee or other fiduciary, payment will be made only to the fiduciary, except in the case of a profit-sharing or pension plan where payment will be made to the designee. As withdrawal payments may include a return of principal, they cannot be considered a guaranteed annuity or actual yield of income to the investor. The redemption of shares in connection with an Automatic Withdrawal Plan may result in a gain or loss for tax purposes, and may result in account closure if the redemption amount exceeds the account balance. Continued withdrawals in excess of income will reduce and possibly exhaust invested principal, especially in the event of a market decline. The maintenance of an Automatic Withdrawal Plan concurrently with purchases of additional shares of the Fund would be disadvantageous to the
204

investor because of the CDSC that may become payable on such withdrawals in the case of Class A, Class C or Class C-2 shares and because of the initial sales charge in the case of Class A shares.
Investors should consider carefully with their own financial professionals whether the plan and the specified amounts to be withdrawn are appropriate in their circumstances. The Trust and the Distributor make no recommendations or representations in this regard.
Unclaimed Property Laws. These laws require investment companies, such as the Trust, to undertake various efforts, including monitoring Fund direct accounts for shareholder-initiated activity. A Fund direct account is deemed lost when there is no shareholder-initiated activity or an invalid mailing address during a statutorily-prescribed time period (generally, three or five years). If a shareholder’s Fund direct account is dormant or “lost,” the Trust may be required to transfer the account to the state in which the shareholder resides, in accordance with applicable unclaimed property (also called escheat) laws. To help protect their accounts, shareholders should keep their accounts up-to-date and active.
If a shareholder invests into a Fund direct account, it is the shareholder’s responsibility to ensure that the shareholder provides a current and valid mailing address to the Trust or Fund (as applicable). Failure to provide a current and valid address will result in an interruption of purchases, redemptions or distributions, as described herein. If the United States Post Office or another carrier returns mailings sent to the shareholder as undeliverable, future mailings will be suppressed. Further, under such circumstances, if the shareholder has elected to receive income dividends and capital gains distributions in cash, subsequent distributions will automatically be reinvested back into the shareholder’s account until the address on the account has been updated. In the event a Fund is liquidated, direct account liquidation proceeds may be withheld from distribution pending the receipt of further instructions or until required to be transferred to the applicable state pursuant to applicable unclaimed property laws.
Mail suppression, described above, and a lack of shareholder-initiated activity will impact whether a shareholder’s Fund direct account is subject to escheatment under applicable law.
Shareholders that reside in the state of Texas may designate a representative to receive escheatment notifications by completing and submitting a designation form that can be found on the website of the Texas Comptroller.
Shareholders should contact their financial professional or PIMCO at 888.87.PIMCO for further information about state unclaimed property laws and/or to update their address or to generate shareholder-initiated activity in your account(s). For general information about unclaimed property rules, shareholders should visit the National Association of Unclaimed Property Administrators website at www.unclaimed.org. Shareholders may also visit pimco.com/investments/unclaimedproperty for a brief Q&A on the topic.
Deceased Shareholders. If PIMCO receives information confirming that a Fund direct account shareholder is deceased, to protect that shareholder and his or her beneficiaries, any Automatic Investment Plan, Automatic Exchange Plan and Automatic Withdrawal Plan in the account(s) associated with the shareholder will be suspended, and future cash dividends and/or capital gain payments will be reinvested back in such account(s) until such time as the authorized beneficiary or designee provides adequate instructions to the Fund regarding such account. To determine what documentation is needed to transfer ownership of an account, shareholders should contact the transfer agent at 888.87.PIMCO. In the event a Fund is liquidated, direct account liquidation proceeds will be sent to the shareholder of record.
Custodial Risks for Shares Held Through Third-Party Financial Intermediaries
Certain share classes of the Funds are available for purchase directly through the Distributor, in which case the shareholder will be a registered owner of Fund shares as reflected on the Fund’s books and records as maintained by the Transfer Agent.
Alternatively, shares of the Funds are available through broker-dealers, banks or other financial firms that permit their customers to purchase and custody Fund shares through them under nominee arrangements (where the financial firms serve as registered owners of the Fund shares) or under arrangements in which the financial firms may open shareholder accounts and provide instructions to the Fund through the National Securities Clearing Corporation’s Fund/SERV platform. The manner in which these financial firms custody an investor’s Fund shares or the extent to
205

which they may provide instructions to the Fund concerning an investor’s shareholder account with the Fund may vary by firm, including based on its arrangements with the Distributor or PIMCO and their level of participation on Fund/SERV. Shareholders should consult their financial firm for details.
As disclosed above, in some cases, the Distributor or PIMCO have arrangements with financial firms under which they may provide recordkeeping, shareholder services or other services with respect to the Funds, their shares and shareholders. However, these financial firms are not acting as agents of the Fund, the Trust or its Transfer Agent, the Distributor or PIMCO when maintaining custody or control of Fund shares for their customers or providing instructions to the Fund concerning an investor’s shareholder account with the Fund, and their responsibilities are a function of their relationship to their customers and applicable law. None of the Funds, the Trust, PIMCO or the Distributor is responsible for the manner in which any financial firm maintains custody or control of Fund shares on behalf of its customers.
Securities such as Fund shares held in the custody of financial firms may be subject to risks of, among other things, misappropriation, cyber attacks or delays in the availability of such securities if the financial firm becomes subject to a bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding under the Securities Investor Protection Act or other applicable law.
Request for Multiple Copies of Shareholder Documents
To reduce expenses, it is intended that only one copy of the Funds’ prospectus and each annual and semi-annual report, when available, will be mailed to those addresses shared by two or more accounts. If you wish to receive individual copies of these documents and your shares are held in a Fund account, call PIMCO Funds at 888.87.PIMCO. You will receive the additional copy within 30 days after receipt of your request by PIMCO Funds. Alternatively, if your shares are held through a financial institution, please contact the financial institution.
Portfolio Transactions And Brokerage
Investment Decisions and Portfolio Transactions
Investment decisions for the Trust and for the other investment advisory clients of PIMCO are made with a view to achieving their respective investment objectives. Investment decisions are the product of many factors in addition to basic suitability for the particular client involved (including the Trust). Some securities considered for investments by the Funds also may be appropriate for other clients served by PIMCO. Thus, a particular security may be bought or sold for certain clients even though it could have been bought or sold for other clients at the same time, including accounts in which PIMCO, its officers or employees may have a financial interest. If a purchase or sale of securities consistent with the investment policies of a Fund and one or more of these clients served by PIMCO is considered at or about the same time, transactions in such securities will be allocated among the Fund and other clients pursuant to PIMCO’s trade allocation policy that is designed to ensure that all accounts, including the Funds, are treated fairly, equitably, and in a non-preferential manner, such that allocations are not based upon fee structure or portfolio manager preference.
PIMCO may acquire on behalf of its clients (including the Trust) securities or other financial instruments providing exposure to different aspects of the capital and debt structure of an issuer, including without limitation those that relate to senior and junior/subordinate obligations of such issuer. In certain circumstances, the interests of those clients exposed to one portion of the issuer’s capital and debt structure may diverge from those clients exposed to a different portion of the issuer’s capital and debt structure. PIMCO may advise some clients or take actions for them in their best interests with respect to their exposures to an issuer’s capital and debt structure that may diverge from the interests of other clients with different exposures to the same issuer’s capital and debt structure.
PIMCO may aggregate orders for the Funds with simultaneous transactions entered into on behalf of other clients of PIMCO when, in PIMCO’s reasonable judgment, aggregation may result in an overall economic benefit to the Funds and other clients in terms of pricing, brokerage commissions or other expenses. When feasible, PIMCO allocates trades prior to execution. When pre-execution allocation is not feasible, PIMCO promptly allocates trades following established and objective procedures. Allocations generally are made at or about the time of execution and before the end of the trading day. As a result, one account may receive a price for a particular transaction that is different from the price received by another account for a similar transaction on the same day. In general, trades are allocated among portfolio managers on a pro rata basis (to the extent a portfolio manager decides to participate fully in
206

the trade), for further allocation by each portfolio manager among that manager’s eligible accounts. In allocating trades among accounts, portfolio managers generally consider a number of factors, including, but not limited to, each account’s deviation (in terms of risk exposure and/or performance characteristics) from a relevant model portfolio, each account’s investment objectives, restrictions and guidelines, its risk exposure, its available cash, and its existing holdings of similar securities. Once trades are allocated, they may be reallocated only in unusual circumstances due to recognition of specific account restrictions.
In some cases, PIMCO may sell a security on behalf of a client, including the Funds, to a broker-dealer that thereafter may be purchased for the accounts of one or more of PIMCO’s other clients, including the Funds, from that or another broker-dealer. PIMCO has adopted procedures it believes are reasonably designed to obtain the best execution for the transactions by each account.
Brokerage and Research Services
There is generally no stated commission in the case of fixed income securities, which are often traded in the OTC markets, but the price paid by the Trust usually includes an undisclosed dealer commission or mark-up. In underwritten offerings, the price paid by the Trust includes a disclosed, fixed commission or discount retained by the underwriter or dealer. Transactions on U.S. stock exchanges and other agency transactions involve the payment by the Trust of negotiated brokerage commissions. Such commissions vary among different brokers. Also, a particular broker may charge different commissions according to such factors as the difficulty and size of the transaction. Transactions in foreign securities generally involve the payment of fixed brokerage commissions, which are generally higher than those in the United States.
PIMCO places all orders for the purchase and sale of portfolio securities, options and futures contracts for the relevant Fund and buys and sells such securities, options and futures for the Trust through a substantial number of brokers and dealers. In so doing, PIMCO uses its best efforts to obtain for the Trust the best execution available. In seeking best execution, PIMCO, having in mind the Trust’s best interests, considers all factors it deems relevant, including, by way of illustration, price, the size of the transaction, the nature of the market for the security, the amount of the commission, the timing of the transaction taking into account market prices and trends, the reputation, experience and financial stability of the broker-dealer involved and the quality of service rendered by the broker-dealer in other transactions. Changes in the aggregate amount of brokerage commissions paid by a Fund from year-to-year may be attributable to changes in the asset size of the Fund, the volume of portfolio transactions effected by the Fund, the types of instruments in which the Fund invests, or the rates negotiated by PIMCO on behalf of the Funds. Although a Fund may use financial firms that sell Fund shares to effect transactions for the Fund’s portfolio, neither the Fund nor PIMCO will consider the sale of Fund shares as a factor when choosing financial firms to effect those transactions.

PIMCO places orders for the purchase and sale of portfolio investments for the Funds’ accounts with brokers or dealers selected by it in its discretion. In effecting purchases and sales of portfolio securities for the account of the Funds, PIMCO will seek the best execution of the Funds’ orders. In doing so, a Fund may pay higher commission rates than the lowest available when PIMCO believes it is reasonable to do so in light of the value of the brokerage and research services provided by the broker effecting the transaction, as discussed below. Although the Trust may use broker-dealers that sell Fund shares to effect the Trust’s portfolio transactions, the Trust and PIMCO will not consider the sale of Fund shares as a factor when selecting broker-dealers to execute those transactions.
It has for many years been a common practice in the investment advisory business for advisers of investment companies and other institutional investors to receive research services from broker-dealers which execute portfolio transactions for the clients of such advisers. Consistent with this practice, PIMCO may receive research services from many broker-dealers with which PIMCO places the Trust’s portfolio transactions. These services, which in some cases also may be purchased for cash, include such matters as general economic and security market reviews, industry and company reviews, evaluations of securities and recommendations as to the purchase and sale of securities. Such information may be provided in the form of meetings with analysts, telephone contacts and written materials. Some of these services are of value to PIMCO in advising various of its clients (including the Trust), although not all of these services are necessarily useful and of value in managing the Trust. The management fee paid by the Trust would not be reduced in the event that PIMCO and its affiliates received such services.
As permitted by Section 28(e) of the 1934 Act, PIMCO may cause the Trust to pay a broker-dealer which provides “brokerage and research services” (as defined in the 1934 Act) to PIMCO an amount of disclosed commission or spread (sometimes called “soft dollars”) for effecting a securities transaction for the Trust in excess of the commission or spread which another broker-dealer would have charged for effecting that transaction, if PIMCO determines in good faith that the commission is reasonable given the brokerage and/or research services provided by the broker-dealer.  PIMCO is typically in a position to make this necessary determination in connection with transactions in equity securities and in other circumstances where there is sufficient transparency to objectively determine the transaction price and commission (e.g., where the commission and transaction price are fully and separately disclosed on the confirmation and the transaction is reported under conditions that provide independent and objective verification of the transaction price), which generally is not the case with transactions in fixed income securities.  Accordingly, the provision of brokerage and research services is not typically considered with respect to transactions by the Trust when trading in fixed income securities, although PIMCO may receive research or research-related credits from brokers which are generated from underwriting commissions when purchasing new issues of fixed income securities or other assets for a Fund. 
In selecting broker-dealers that provide research or brokerage services that are paid for with soft dollars, potential conflicts of interest may arise between PIMCO and the Trust because PIMCO does not produce or pay for these research or brokerage services, but rather uses brokerage commissions generated by Fund transactions to pay for them.  In addition, PIMCO may have an incentive to select a broker-dealer based upon the broker-dealer’s research or brokerage services instead of the broker-dealer’s ability to achieve best execution.
As noted above, PIMCO may purchase new issues of securities for the Trust in underwritten fixed price offerings. In these situations, the underwriter or selling group member may provide PIMCO with research in addition to selling the securities (at the fixed public offering price) to the Trust or other advisory clients. Because the offerings are conducted at a fixed price, the ability to obtain research from a broker-dealer in this situation provides knowledge that may benefit the Trust, other PIMCO clients, and PIMCO without incurring additional costs. These arrangements may not fall within the safe harbor of Section 28(e) because the broker-dealer is considered to be acting in a principal capacity in underwritten transactions. However, FINRA has adopted rules expressly permitting broker-dealers to provide bona fide research to advisers in connection with fixed price offerings under certain circumstances. As a general matter in these situations, the underwriter or selling group member will provide research credits at a rate that is higher than that which is available for secondary market transactions.
Since the securities in which certain Funds invest consist primarily of fixed income securities, which are generally not subject to stated brokerage commissions, as described above, their investments in securities subject to stated
209

commissions generally constitute a small percentage of the aggregate dollar amount of their transactions. SEC rules further require that commissions paid to such an affiliated broker-dealer, or PIMCO by a Fund on exchange transactions not exceed “usual and customary brokerage commissions.” The rules define “usual and customary” commissions to include amounts that are “reasonable and fair compared to the commission, fee or other remuneration received or to be received by other brokers in connection with comparable transactions involving similar securities being purchased or sold on a securities exchange during a comparable period of time.” The Funds did not pay any commissions to affiliated brokers during the fiscal years ended March 31, 2022, 2021, and 2020.

A change in the securities held by a Fund is known as “portfolio turnover.” PIMCO manages the Funds without regard generally to restrictions on portfolio turnover. See “Taxation” below. Trading in fixed income securities does not generally involve the payment of brokerage commissions, but does involve indirect transaction costs. Trading in equity securities involves the payment of brokerage commissions, which are transaction costs paid by a Fund. The use of futures contracts may involve the payment of commissions to futures commission merchants. High portfolio turnover ( e.g., greater than 100%) involves correspondingly greater expenses to a Fund, including brokerage commissions or dealer mark-ups and other transaction costs on the sale of securities and reinvestments in other securities. The higher the rate of portfolio turnover of a Fund, the higher these transaction costs borne by a Fund generally will be. Such sales may result in realization of taxable capital gains (including short-term capital gains which generally would be taxed at ordinary income tax rates when distributed to shareholders).
The portfolio turnover rate of a Fund is calculated by dividing: (a) the lesser of purchases or sales of portfolio securities for the particular fiscal year by; (b) the monthly average of the value of the portfolio securities owned by a Fund during the particular fiscal year. In calculating the rate of portfolio turnover, there is excluded from both (a) and (b) all securities, including options, whose maturities or expiration dates at the time of acquisition were one year or less and any short sales that a Fund does not intend to maintain for more than one year. Proceeds from short sales and, in accordance with current federal securities laws, rules and staff positions, assets used to cover short positions undertaken, are included in the amounts of securities sold and purchased, respectively, during the year. Portfolio turnover rates for each Fund that was operational as of the Trust’s most recent fiscal year end are provided in the Prospectuses under the caption “Financial Highlights.”
The PIMCO All Asset, PIMCO All Asset All Authority, PIMCO Emerging Markets Full Spectrum Bond, PIMCO Global Core Asset Allocation and PIMCO Inflation Response Multi-Asset Funds indirectly bear the expenses associated with the portfolio turnover of the Underlying PIMCO Funds (and unaffiliated funds, in the case of PIMCO Emerging Markets Full Spectrum Bond Fund, PIMCO Global Core Asset Allocation Fund and PIMCO Inflation Response Multi-Asset Fund), which may have fairly high portfolio turnover rates (i.e., in excess of 100%). Shareholders in the PIMCO All Asset, PIMCO All Asset All Authority, PIMCO Emerging Markets Full Spectrum Bond, PIMCO Global Core Asset Allocation and PIMCO Inflation Response Multi-Asset Funds also bear expenses directly or indirectly through sales of securities held by the Funds and the Underlying PIMCO Funds (and unaffiliated funds, in the case of PIMCO Emerging Markets Full Spectrum Bond Fund, PIMCO Global Core Asset Allocation Fund and PIMCO Inflation Response Multi-Asset Fund), which result in realization of taxable capital gains. To the extent such gains relate to securities held for one year or less, such gains will be short-term taxable gains which generally would be taxed at ordinary income tax rates when distributed to shareholders.

The PIMCO California Municipal Intermediate Value Fund experienced an increased portfolio turnover rate compared to its prior year. This Fund’s trading activity increased during the period ended March 31, 2022, when purchase or sales of Fund shares increased as compared to the prior period ended March 31, 2021.
Disclosure of Portfolio Holdings
Policies and Procedures Generally. The Trust has adopted portfolio holdings disclosure policies and procedures to govern the disclosure of the securities holdings of the Funds (the “Disclosure Policy”). The Disclosure Policy is designed to protect the confidentiality of the Funds’ non-public portfolio holdings information, to prevent the selective disclosure of such information, and to ensure compliance by PIMCO and the Funds with the federal securities laws, including the 1940 Act and the rules promulgated thereunder and general principles of fiduciary duty. PIMCO serves as investment adviser to various funds, including exchange-traded funds, that may have investment objectives, strategies and portfolio holdings that are substantially similar to or overlap with those of the Funds, and in some cases, these funds may publicly disclose portfolio holdings on a more frequent basis than is required for the Funds. For example, portfolio holdings for PIMCO advised actively managed exchange-traded funds are required, by the terms of the applicable SEC exemptive relief, to be publicly disclosed each business day. Similarly, PIMCO serves as an investment adviser to separate accounts that may have investment objectives, strategies and portfolio holdings that are substantially similar to or overlap with those of the Funds, and the separate account holdings that are disclosed to the client or others under the terms of the client’s investment management agreement could be similar or identical to Fund holdings and could be disclosed to such clients more frequently than Fund portfolio holdings are publicly disclosed. As a result, it is possible that other market participants may use such information for their own benefit, which could negatively impact the Funds’ execution of purchase and sale transactions.
Monitoring and Oversight.     The Trust’s Chief Compliance Officer (“CCO”) is responsible for ensuring that PIMCO has adopted and implemented policies and procedures reasonably designed to ensure compliance with the Disclosure Policy and, to the extent the CCO considers necessary, the CCO shall monitor PIMCO’s compliance with its policies and procedures.
Any exceptions to the Disclosure Policy may be made only if approved by the CCO upon determining that the exception is in the best interests of the Fund. The CCO must report any exceptions made to the Disclosure Policy to the Trust’s Board of Trustees at its next regularly scheduled meeting.
Quarterly Disclosure.     The Funds will publicly disclose the complete schedule of each Fund’s holdings, as reported on a fiscal quarter-end basis, by making the information publicly available in a manner consistent with requirements established by the SEC. You may view a Fund’s complete schedule of portfolio holdings for the most recently completed quarter online at www.pimco.com, or obtain a copy of the schedule by calling PIMCO at 1-888-87-PIMCO (1-888-877-4626). Except as provided below under “Disclosure of Portfolio Holdings—Monthly/Weekly Disclosure,” this information will be available no earlier than the day on which it is transmitted to shareholders in the Funds’ annual and semi-annual reports, or filed with and made publicly available by with the SEC on Form N-PORT, which will occur on or about the sixtieth day after a fiscal quarter’s end.
The Funds, other than the PIMCO Government Money Market Fund, file portfolio holdings information with the SEC on Form N-PORT within 60 days of the end of each fiscal quarter. The Funds’ complete schedules of securities holdings as of the end of each fiscal quarter will be made available to the public on the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.
Monthly/Weekly Disclosure.     The PIMCO Short Asset Investment Fund will publicly disclose the complete schedule of the Fund’s holdings, as reported on a month-end basis, free of charge in a manner determined by PIMCO. This information will be available no earlier than five days after such month-end. If the fifth day falls on a weekend or other non-business day, such information will be made available on the following business day.
The PIMCO Government Money Market Fund will publicly disclose the complete schedule of the Fund’s holdings, as reported on a week-end basis, free of charge in a manner determined by PIMCO. This information will be available no earlier than five days after such week-end. If the fifth day falls on a weekend or other non-business day, such information will be made available on the following business day.
Generally, the PIMCO Short Asset Investment and PIMCO Government Money Market Funds will disclose their respective portfolio holdings as permitted according to the preceding two paragraphs. However, from time to time, the portfolio manager(s) of a Fund may determine that it is in the Fund’s best interest not to disclose this information
222

pursuant to the schedule set forth above. In such a case, the portfolio manager(s) must provide a written explanation to the Fund’s CCO as to why the portfolio manager(s) believe(s) it is in the best interests of the Fund to not make the disclosure at that time. The CCO or his or her designee shall determine whether to withhold the issuance of the Fund’s portfolio holdings information. The past performance of a particular holding or of a Fund’s portfolio relative to similar funds shall not be a factor in making this determination.
If the CCO or his or her designee determines not to disclose the Fund’s portfolio holdings as of a particular date pursuant to the schedule set forth above, no new portfolio holdings information for the Fund shall be disclosed as of that date. The Fund may continue to disclose portfolio holdings information from the prior period, provided that the date of such information is disclosed.
Defaulted/Distressed Securities.     PIMCO may, in its discretion, publicly disclose portfolio holdings information at any time with respect to securities held by the Funds that are in default, distressed, or experiencing a negative credit event. Any such disclosure will be broadly disseminated via PIMCO’s website at www.pimco.com/investments, the Distributor’s website at www.pimco.com/investments, or by similar means.
Confidential Dissemination of Portfolio Holdings Information.     No disclosure of non-public portfolio holdings information may be made to any third party except as set forth in the Disclosure Policy. This prohibition does not apply to information sharing with (i) the Funds’ service providers, such as the Funds’ investment adviser, sub-advisers (if any), distributor, custodian, transfer agent, administrator, sub-administrator (if any), accountant, counsel, securities class action claims services administrator, financial printer, proxy voting agent, lender; (ii) portfolio managers of PIMCO-sponsored funds of funds; (iii) PIMCO affiliates, service providers to PIMCO or service providers to PIMCO affiliates who may perform services or assist PIMCO in the performance of services for or on behalf of a Fund; (iv) and other select third party service providers (collectively, the “Service Providers”), who generally need access to such information in the performance of their contractual duties and responsibilities. Such Service Providers are subject to duties of confidentiality, including a duty not to trade on information such as non-public portfolio holdings, imposed by law and/or contract.
Each Fund or PIMCO may, to the extent permitted under applicable law, distribute non-public portfolio holdings information to (i) certain third parties that have a legitimate business purpose in receiving such information, including, but not limited to, mutual fund analysts and rating and ranking organizations, pricing information vendors, analytical service providers, banks or other third parties providing financing to a Fund, certain platform providers, investment management trade associations and potential Service Providers, or (ii) a redeeming shareholder effecting a redemption-in-kind from one of the Funds as may be permitted by PIMCO from time to time; provided, however, that any recipient of non-public portfolio holdings information pursuant to this paragraph shall be subject to a confidentiality agreement meeting the requirements of the Disclosure Policy. PIMCO currently has an ongoing arrangement to distribute non-public portfolio holdings information for the PIMCO Government Money Market Fund to Moody’s solely for the purpose of Moody’s rating the Fund.
The distribution of non-public portfolio holdings information pursuant to the foregoing paragraph must be authorized by an officer of the Trust after determining the requested disclosure is in the best interests of the Fund and its shareholders and after consulting with and receiving approval from PIMCO’s legal department. The Disclosure Policy does not require a delay between the date of the information and the date on which the information is disclosed; however, any recipient of non-public information will be subject to a confidentiality agreement that contains, at a minimum, provisions specifying that: (1) the Funds’ non-public information provided is the confidential property of the Funds and may not be used for any purpose except in connection with the provision of services to the Funds or for an agreed-upon legitimate business purpose and, in particular, that such information may not be traded upon; (2) except to the extent contemplated by the Disclosure Policy, the recipient of the non-public information agrees to limit access to the information to its employees, advisors, representatives, and agents who are subject to a duty to keep and treat such information as confidential; and (3) upon written request from the Funds or PIMCO, the recipient of the non-public information shall promptly return or destroy the information, except as otherwise required by applicable law or such recipient’s record retention policies and procedures. Neither the Funds nor PIMCO may receive compensation or consideration in connection with the distribution of non-public portfolio holdings information.
A Fund or PIMCO may also, to the extent permitted under applicable law, confirm the absence of one or more particular portfolio holdings to third parties that have a legitimate business purpose in receiving such information, to the extent such information relates to compliance by a Fund with a legal or regulatory requirement. Disclosure of such information does not constitute disclosure of portfolio holdings information under the Disclosure Policy.
223

Non-Specific Information.     Under the Disclosure Policy, the Funds or PIMCO may distribute non-specific information about the Funds and/or summary information about the Funds at any time. Such information will not identify any specific portfolio holding, but may reflect, among other things, the quality or character of a Fund’s holdings.
Model Portfolios and Indexes.     Certain Funds (the “Index-Replicating Funds”) may obtain exposure to one or more proprietary model portfolios or market capitalization indexes by investing primarily in swaps or other derivatives based on such model portfolio(s) or index(es). Certain disclosures regarding the composition of the model portfolio(s) or index(es) are not considered “portfolio holdings information” for purposes of the Disclosure Policy. In particular, the Index Replicating Funds may publicly disclose the ten largest holdings of the model portfolio or index as of the last calendar day of each month, but not earlier than the tenth business day of the subsequent month.
Required Disclosures.     No provision of the Disclosure Policy is intended to restrict or prevent the disclosure of portfolio holdings information as may be required by applicable state or federal law, which are requested by governmental authorities or in connection with litigation involving a Fund’s current or past portfolio holdings.
Large Trade Notifications
A Fund or its agent may from time to time receive notice that a current or prospective shareholder will place, or that a financial intermediary has received, an order for a large trade in a Fund’s shares. The Fund may determine to enter into portfolio transactions in anticipation of that order, even though the order will not be placed or processed until the following business day, as applicable. This practice provides for a closer correlation between the time shareholders place trade orders and the time a Fund enters into portfolio transactions based on those orders, and permits the Fund to be more fully invested in investment securities, in the case of purchase orders, and to more orderly liquidate its investment positions, in the case of redemption orders. On the other hand, the current or prospective shareholder or financial intermediary, as applicable, may not ultimately place or process the order. In this case, a Fund may be required to borrow assets to settle the portfolio transactions entered into in anticipation of that order, and would therefore incur borrowing costs. The Funds may also suffer investment losses on those portfolio transactions. Conversely, the Funds would benefit from any earnings and investment gains resulting from such portfolio transactions.
Net Asset Value
Net asset value is determined as indicated under “How Fund Shares are Priced” in the Prospectuses. All Funds’ net asset value will not be determined on the following holidays: New Year’s Day, Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, President’s Day, Good Friday, Memorial Day, Juneteenth National Independence Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving Day, and Christmas Day. On any business day when the Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association (“SIFMA”) recommends that the securities markets close trading early, the PIMCO Government Money Market Fund may close trading early and determine net asset value as of an earlier time.
For all Funds other than the PIMCO Government Money Market Fund, portfolio securities and other assets for which market quotations are readily available are valued at market value. Market value is generally determined on the basis of last reported sales prices, or if no sales prices are reported, as is the case for most securities traded OTC, on the basis of either: (i) the mean between representative bid and ask quotations obtained from a quotation reporting system or from established market makers; or (ii) prices (including evaluated prices) supplied by a Fund’s approved pricing services, quotation reporting systems and other third-party sources (together, “Pricing Services”). For exchange-traded securities, market value also may be determined on the basis of the exchange’s Official Closing Price or Settlement instead of the last reported sales prices. Certain exchange-traded equity options may be valued using evaluations from Pricing Services. Fixed income securities, including those to be purchased under firm commitment agreements, are normally valued on the basis of quotes obtained from brokers and dealers or prices provided by Pricing Services, which may take into account appropriate factors such as, without limitation, institutional-sized trading in similar groups of securities, yield, quality, coupon rate, maturity, type of issue, trading characteristics, and other market data.
The PIMCO Government Money Market Fund’s securities are valued using the amortized cost method of valuation. This involves valuing a security at cost on the date of acquisition and thereafter assuming a constant accretion of a discount or amortization of a premium to maturity, regardless of the impact of fluctuating interest rates on the market value of the instrument. While this method provides certainty in valuation, it may result in periods
224

during which value, as determined by amortized cost, is higher or lower than the price the Fund would receive if it sold the instrument. During such periods the yield to investors in the PIMCO Government Money Market Fund may differ somewhat from that obtained in a similar investment company which uses available market quotations to value all of its portfolio securities.
The SEC’s regulations require the PIMCO Government Money Market Fund to adhere to certain conditions. The Board of Trustees, as part of its responsibility within the overall duty of care owed to the shareholders, is required to establish procedures reasonably designed, taking into account current market conditions and the Fund’s investment objective, to stabilize the net asset value per share as computed for the purpose of distribution and redemption at $1.00 per share. The Trustees’ procedures include a requirement to periodically monitor, as appropriate and at such intervals as are reasonable in light of current market conditions, the relationship between the amortized cost value per share and the net asset value per share based upon available indications of market value. The Board of Trustees will consider what steps should be taken, if any, in the event of a difference of more than 1/2 of 1% between the two. The Board of Trustees will take such steps as it considers appropriate, (e.g., selling securities to shorten the average portfolio maturity) to minimize any material dilution or other unfair results which might arise from differences between the two. The Fund also is required to maintain a dollar-weighted average portfolio maturity of 60 days or less and a dollar-weighted average life to maturity of 120 days or less, to limit its investments to instruments having remaining maturities of 397 days or less (except securities held subject to repurchase agreements having 397 days or less maturity) and to invest only in securities determined by PIMCO under procedures established by the Board of Trustees to be of high quality with minimal credit risks. The Fund may not invest more than 0.5% of its total assets, measured at the time of investment, in securities of any one issuer that are in the second-highest rating category for short-term debt obligations.
Each Fund’s liabilities are allocated among its classes. The total of such liabilities allocated to a class plus that class’s distribution and/or servicing fees (if any) and any other expenses specially allocated to that class are then deducted from the class’s proportionate interest in the Fund’s assets, and the resulting amount for each class is divided by the number of shares of that class outstanding to produce the class’s “net asset value” per share. Under certain circumstances, the per share net asset value of the Class C or Class C-2 shares of the Funds that do not declare regular income dividends on a daily basis may be lower than the per share net asset value of the Class A shares as a result of the daily expense accruals of the distribution fee applicable to the Class C and Class C-2 shares, respectively. Generally, when Funds pay income dividends, those dividends are expected to differ over time by approximately the amount of the expense accrual differential between a particular Fund’s classes.
Taxation
The following summarizes certain additional federal income tax considerations generally affecting the Funds and their shareholders. The discussion is for general information only and does not purport to consider all aspects of U.S. federal income taxation that might be relevant to beneficial owners of shares of the Funds. The discussion is based upon current provisions of the Internal Revenue Code, existing regulations promulgated thereunder, and administrative and judicial interpretations thereof, all of which are subject to change, which change could be retroactive. The discussion applies only to beneficial owners of Fund shares in whose hands such shares are capital assets within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Internal Revenue Code, and may not apply to certain types of beneficial owners of shares (such as insurance companies, tax-exempt organizations, and broker-dealers) who may be subject to special rules. Persons who may be subject to tax in more than one country should consult the provisions of any applicable tax treaty to determine the potential tax consequences to them. Prospective investors should consult their own tax advisers with regard to the federal tax consequences of the purchase, ownership and disposition of Fund shares, as well as the tax consequences arising under the laws of any state, foreign country, or other taxing jurisdiction. The discussion here and in the Prospectuses is not intended as a substitute for careful tax planning.
Each Fund intends to qualify annually and elect to be treated as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code. To qualify for tax treatment as a regulated investment company, each Fund generally must, among other things, (i) derive in each taxable year at least 90% of its gross income from dividends, interest, payments with respect to securities loans, and gains from the sale or other disposition of stock, securities or foreign currencies, net income from certain “qualified publicly traded partnerships,” or other income derived with respect to its business of investing in such stock, securities or currencies (“Qualifying Income Test”); (ii) diversify its holdings so that, at the end of each quarter of the taxable year, (a) at least 50% of the market value of the Fund’s assets is represented by cash, U.S. Government securities, the securities of other regulated investment companies and other securities, with such
225

other securities of any one issuer limited for the purposes of this calculation to an amount not greater than 5% of the value of the Fund’s total assets and 10% of the outstanding voting securities of such issuer, and (b) not more than 25% of the value of its total assets is invested in the securities of any one issuer (other than U.S. Government securities or the securities of other regulated investment companies), the securities of certain controlled issuers in the same or similar trades or businesses, or the securities of one or more “qualified publicly traded partnerships”; and (iii) distribute in each taxable year dividends of an amount at least equal to the sum of (a) 90% of its investment company taxable income (which includes dividends, interest and net short-term capital gains in excess of any net long-term capital losses), determined without regard to any deduction for dividends paid; and (b) 90% of its tax exempt interest, net of expenses allocable thereto. The Treasury Department is authorized to promulgate regulations under which gains from foreign currencies (and options, futures, and forward contracts on foreign currency) would constitute qualifying income for purposes of the Qualifying Income Test only if such gains are directly related to investing in securities. To date, such regulations have not been issued.
If a Fund failed to qualify as a regulated investment company accorded special tax treatment in any taxable year, a Fund would be subject to tax on its taxable income at corporate rates, and all distributions from earnings and profits, including any distributions of net tax-exempt income and net long-term capital gains, would be taxable to shareholders as ordinary income. Some portions of such distributions may be eligible for the dividends received deduction in the case of corporate shareholders and reduced rates of taxation on qualified dividend income in the case of individuals. In addition, a Fund could be required to recognize unrealized gains, pay substantial taxes and interest and make substantial distributions before requalifying as a regulated investment company that is accorded special tax treatment.
As described in the applicable Prospectuses, the PIMCO CommoditiesPLUS® Strategy, PIMCO CommodityRealReturn Strategy, PIMCO Global Core Asset Allocation, PIMCO Inflation Response Multi-Asset and PIMCO TRENDS Managed Futures Strategy Funds may gain exposure to the commodities markets through investments in commodity index-linked derivative instruments. On December 16, 2005, the IRS issued Revenue Ruling 2006-01 which held that income derived from commodity index-linked swaps would not be qualifying income. As such, each Fund’s ability to utilize commodity index-linked swaps as part of its investment strategy is limited to a maximum of 10 percent of its gross income, respectively.
A subsequent revenue ruling, Revenue Ruling 2006-31, clarified the holding of Revenue Ruling 2006-01 by providing that income from alternative investment instruments (such as certain commodity index-linked notes) that create commodity exposure may be considered qualifying income under the Internal Revenue Code. The IRS has also issued private letter rulings in which the IRS specifically concluded that income from certain commodity index-linked notes is qualifying income (collectively, the “Notes Rulings”). Each Fund will continue to seek to gain exposure to the commodity markets primarily through investments in its Commodities Subsidiary (as discussed below). The IRS issued a revenue procedure which states that the IRS will not in the future issue private letter rulings that would require a determination of whether an asset (such as a commodity index-linked note) is a “security” under the 1940 Act. In connection with the issuance of this revenue procedure, the IRS has revoked the Notes Rulings.
As discussed in “Investment Objectives and Policies—Investments in the Wholly-Owned Subsidiaries,” certain Funds intend to invest a portion of their assets in a wholly-owned subsidiary of such Funds organized under the laws of the Cayman Islands (a “Commodities Subsidiary”), each of which will be classified as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The IRS has also issued private rulings in which the IRS specifically concluded that income derived from investment in a subsidiary will also be qualifying income.  The IRS issued final regulations that treat a Fund’s income inclusion with respect to its Subsidiary as qualifying income under the Qualifying Income Test if there is a distribution out of the earnings and profits of the Subsidiary that are attributable to such income inclusion or if the includable income was derived with respect to the Fund’s business of investing in stocks, securities or currencies. The Subsidiary may pay such a distribution to a Fund at any time. There can be no assurance that the IRS will not change its position with respect to some or all of these issues or that future legislation or court decisions will not adversely impact the tax treatment of a Fund’s commodity-linked investments. If the IRS were to determine that income derived from investments in the Subsidiaries does not constitute qualifying income and if such positions were upheld or if future legislation or court decisions were to adversely affect the tax treatment of Fund investments, certain Funds, including the PIMCO CommoditiesPLUS® Strategy, PIMCO CommodityRealReturn Strategy, PIMCO Global Core Asset Allocation, PIMCO Inflation Response Multi-Asset and PIMCO TRENDS Managed Futures Strategy Funds might cease to qualify as regulated investment companies and would be required to reduce their exposure to such investments which might result in difficulty in implementing their investment strategies. If the PIMCO CommoditiesPLUS® Strategy, PIMCO CommodityRealReturn Strategy, PIMCO Global Core Asset Allocation,
226

PIMCO Inflation Response Multi-Asset and PIMCO TRENDS Managed Futures Strategy Funds did not qualify as a regulated investment companies for any taxable year, their taxable income would be subject to tax at the Fund level at regular corporate tax rates (without reduction for distributions to shareholders) and to a further tax at the shareholder level when such income is distributed. In such event, in order to re-qualify for taxation as a regulated investment companies, the PIMCO CommoditiesPLUS® Strategy, PIMCO CommodityRealReturn Strategy, PIMCO Global Core Asset Allocation, PIMCO Inflation Response Multi-Asset and PIMCO TRENDS Managed Futures Strategy Funds may be required to recognize unrealized gains, pay substantial taxes and interest and make certain distributions.
Foreign corporations, such as the Subsidiaries, will generally not be subject to U.S. federal income taxation unless they are deemed to be engaged in a U.S. trade or business. It is expected that the Subsidiaries will conduct their activities in a manner so as to meet the requirements of a safe harbor is Section 864(b)(2) of the Internal Revenue Code under which the Subsidiaries may engage in trading in stocks or securities or certain commodities without being deemed to be engaged in a U.S. trade or business. However, if certain of either Subsidiary’s activities were determined not to be of the type described in the safe harbor (which is not expected), then the activities of such Subsidiary may constitute a U.S. trade or business, or would be subject to tax as such.
In general, foreign corporations, such as the Subsidiaries, that do not conduct a U.S. trade or business are nonetheless subject to tax at a flat rate of 30 percent (or lower tax treaty rate), generally payable through withholding, on the gross amount of certain U.S.-source income that is not effectively connected with a U.S. trade or business. There is presently no tax treaty in force between the U.S. and the Cayman Islands that would reduce this rate of withholding tax. It is not expected that the Subsidiaries will derive income subject to such withholding tax.
Each Subsidiary will be treated as a controlled foreign corporation (“CFC”). The PIMCO CommoditiesPLUS® Strategy Fund will be treated as a “U.S. shareholder” of the CPS Subsidiary, the PIMCO CommodityRealReturn Strategy Fund® will be treated as a “U.S. shareholder” of the CRRS Subsidiary, the PIMCO Global Core Asset Allocation Fund will be treated as a “U.S. shareholder” of the GCAA Subsidiary, the PIMCO Inflation Response Multi-Asset Fund will be treated as a “U.S. shareholder” of the IRMA Subsidiary and the PIMCO TRENDS Managed Futures Strategy Fund will be treated as a “U.S. shareholder” of the MF Subsidiary. As a result, each Fund will be required to include in gross income for U.S. federal income tax purposes all of its Subsidiary’s “subpart F income,” whether or not such income is distributed by such Subsidiary. It is expected that all of the Subsidiaries’ income and realized gains and mark-to-market gains will be “subpart F income.” Each Fund’s recognition of its Subsidiary’s “subpart F income” will increase such Fund’s tax basis in its Subsidiary. Distributions by the Subsidiary to its respective Fund will be tax-free, to the extent of its previously undistributed “subpart F income,” and will correspondingly reduce such Fund’s tax basis in its Subsidiary. “Subpart F income” is generally treated by the Fund as ordinary income, regardless of the character of the Subsidiary’s underlying income or gains. If a net loss is realized by a Subsidiary, such loss is not generally available to offset the income earned by such Subsidiary’s parent Fund, and such loss cannot be carried forward to offset taxable income of the parent Fund or the Subsidiary in future periods.
As a regulated investment company, a Fund generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income tax on its investment company taxable income and net capital gains (any net long-term capital gains in excess of the sum of net short-term capital losses and capital loss carryovers from prior years) reported by the Fund as capital gain dividends, if any, that it distributes as dividends to its shareholders on a timely basis. Each Fund intends to distribute to its shareholders, at least annually, all or substantially all of its investment company taxable income and any net capital gains. Each Fund may pay distributions more frequently than annually in varying amounts including special distributions reflecting net profits if any from a Fund’s wholly-owned subsidiary if applicable. In addition, amounts not distributed by a Fund on a timely basis in accordance with a calendar year distribution requirement may be subject to a nondeductible 4% excise tax. Unless an applicable exception applies, to avoid the tax, a Fund must distribute dividends in respect of each calendar year to its shareholders of an amount at least equal to the sum of (1) 98% of its ordinary income (taking into account certain deferrals and elections) for the calendar year, (2) 98.2% of its capital gains in excess of its capital losses (and adjusted for certain ordinary losses) generally for the twelve-month period ending on October 31, and (3) all ordinary income and capital gains for previous years that were not distributed during such years and on which the Fund paid no U.S. federal income tax. To avoid application of the excise tax, each Fund generally intends, to the extent necessary, to make its distributions in accordance with the calendar year distribution requirement. However, each Fund reserves the right to retain a portion of its earnings and be subject to excise tax on such earnings. A distribution will be treated as paid on December 31 of the calendar year if it is declared by a Fund in October, November, or December of that year to shareholders of record on a date in such a month and paid by the Fund during January of the following calendar year. Such distributions will be taxable to shareholders (other than those
227

not subject to federal income tax) in the calendar year in which the distributions are declared, rather than the calendar year in which the distributions are received.
Distributions
Each Municipal Fund must have at least 50% of its total assets invested in Municipal Bonds at the end of each quarter of each taxable year so that dividends derived from its net interest income on Municipal Bonds and so reported by the Fund will be “exempt-interest dividends,” which are generally exempt from federal income tax when received by an investor. Other Funds that have at least 50% of their assets invested in other Funds at the end of each quarter may also be eligible to pay exempt-interest dividends. A portion of the distributions paid by a Municipal Fund may be subject to tax as ordinary income (including certain amounts attributable to bonds acquired at a market discount). In addition, any distributions of net short-term capital gains generally would be taxed as ordinary income and any distribution of capital gain dividends generally would be taxed as long-term capital gains. Certain exempt-interest dividends, as described in the applicable Prospectuses, may increase alternative minimum taxable income for purposes of determining a shareholder’s liability for the alternative minimum tax. In addition, exempt-interest dividends allocable to interest from certain “private activity bonds” will not be tax exempt for purposes of the regular income tax to shareholders who are “substantial users” of the facilities financed by such obligations or “related persons” of “substantial users.” The tax-exempt portion of dividends paid by a Fund for a taxable year constituting “exempt-interest dividends” will be reported after the end of each calendar year and will be based upon the ratio of net tax-exempt income to total net income earned by the Fund during such year. That ratio may be substantially different than the ratio of net tax-exempt income to total net income earned during a portion of the year. Thus, a shareholder who holds shares for only a part of the year may be allocated more or less tax-exempt interest dividends than would be the case if the allocation were based on the ratio of net tax-exempt income to total net income actually earned by the Fund while a shareholder. All or a portion of interest on indebtedness incurred or continued by a shareholder to purchase or carry shares of a Municipal Fund will not be deductible by the shareholder. The portion of interest that is not deductible is equal to the total interest paid or accrued on the indebtedness multiplied by the percentage of the Fund’s total distributions (not including distributions of the excess of net long-term capital gains over net short-term capital losses) paid to the shareholder that are exempt-interest dividends. Under rules used by the IRS for determining when borrowed funds are considered used for the purpose of purchasing or carrying particular assets, the purchase of shares may be considered to have been made with borrowed funds even though such funds are not directly traceable to the purchase of shares. Future changes in federal and/or state laws could possibly have a negative impact on the tax treatment and/or value of municipal securities.
In order for the PIMCO California Intermediate Municipal Bond Fund, the PIMCO California Municipal Bond Fund, the PIMCO California Municipal Intermediate Value Fund, the PIMCO California Municipal Opportunistic Value Fund and the PIMCO California Short Duration Municipal Income Fund (collectively, the “California Municipal Funds”) to distribute exempt-interest dividends for purposes of the California personal income tax, at least 50% of the value a California Municipal Fund’s total assets at the end of each quarter of each taxable year must consist of California state or local obligations and/or U.S. federal obligations, the interest from which is exempt from California personal income taxation. If a California Municipal Fund qualifies to distribute exempt-interest dividends and reports these distributions as such to California Municipal Fund shareholders, all distributions of such California Municipal Fund attributable to interest income earned on such California state or local obligations and/or U.S. federal obligations for the taxable year of the California Municipal Fund will be exempt from California personal income tax.
Shareholders of the PIMCO New York Municipal Bond Fund (the “New York Municipal Fund”) will be entitled to exclude any portion of any distributions made by the New York Municipal Fund that is attributable to interest earned by the New York Municipal Fund on federally tax-exempt obligations issued by New York State or any political subdivision thereof (including New York City); obligations of the U.S. and its possessions from their gross income, but only if, at the close of each quarter of the New York Municipal Fund’s taxable year, at least 50% of the value of the New York Municipal Fund’s total assets consist of obligations of the U.S. and its possessions and the Fund properly reports the income from such obligations; or obligations of any authority, commission, or instrumentality of the U.S. to the extent U.S. federal law exempts such interest from state or local income taxation.
Shareholders of the Municipal Funds receiving social security or railroad retirement benefits may be taxed on a portion of those benefits as a result of receiving tax-exempt income (including exempt-interest dividends distributed by the Fund). The tax may be imposed on up to 50% of a recipient’s benefits in cases where the sum of the recipient’s adjusted gross income (with certain adjustments, including tax-exempt interest) and 50% of the recipient’s benefits,
228

exceeds a base amount. In addition, up to 85% of a recipient’s benefits may be subject to tax if the sum of the recipient’s adjusted gross income (with certain adjustments, including tax-exempt interest) and 50% of the recipient’s benefits exceeds a higher base amount. Shareholders receiving social security or railroad retirement benefits should consult with their tax advisors.
Except for exempt-interest dividends paid by the Municipal Funds, all dividends and distributions of a Fund, whether received in shares or cash, generally are taxable and generally must be reported on each shareholder’s federal income tax return. Dividends paid out of a Fund’s investment company taxable income will be taxable to a U.S. shareholder as ordinary income. Distributions received by tax-exempt shareholders will not be subject to federal income tax to the extent permitted under the applicable tax exemption.
Although all or a portion of the dividends paid by certain Funds may qualify for the deduction for dividends received by certain U.S. corporations and/or the reduced tax rate for individuals and other noncorporate taxpayers on certain “qualified dividend income,” it is not expected that any such portion would be significant. Dividends paid by certain other Funds generally are not expected to qualify for the deduction for dividends received by corporations and/or the reduced tax rate for individuals and other noncorporate taxpayers on certain “qualified dividend income.” Distributions of net capital gains, if any, reported as capital gain dividends, are taxable as long-term capital gains, regardless of how long the shareholder has held a Fund’s shares and are not eligible for the dividends received deduction. Any distributions that are not from a Fund’s investment company taxable income or net realized capital gains may be characterized as a return of capital to shareholders or, in some cases, as capital gain. The tax treatment of dividends and distributions will be the same whether a shareholder reinvests them in additional shares or elects to receive them in cash. The maximum individual rate applicable to “qualified dividend income” and long-term capital gains is generally either 15% or 20%, depending on whether the individual’s income exceeds certain threshold amounts. Any Fund’s participation in a securities lending transaction may affect the amount, timing, and character of distributions derived from such transaction to shareholders. In this case, amounts derived by a Fund in place of dividends earned on a security during the period that such security was not directly held by the Fund may not give rise to qualified dividend income or the deduction for dividends received by certain corporations.
In taxable years when a Fund distributes amounts in excess of its earnings and profits, such distributions may be treated in part as a return of capital. A return of capital is not taxable to a shareholder and has the effect of reducing the shareholder’s basis in the shares.
Investors considering buying Fund shares just prior to a dividend or capital gain distribution should be aware that the forthcoming dividend or distribution will effectively be a return of part of their investment in the Fund but that such dividend or distribution may nevertheless be taxable to them.
Certain distributions reported by a Fund as Section 163(j) interest dividends may be treated as interest income by shareholders for purposes of the tax rules applicable to interest expense limitations under Section 163(j) of the Internal Revenue Code. Such treatment by the shareholder is generally subject to holding period requirements and other potential limitations, although the holding period requirements are generally not applicable to dividends declared by money market funds and certain other funds that declare dividends daily and pay such dividends on a monthly or more frequent basis. The amount that a Fund is eligible to report as a Section 163(j) dividend for a tax year is generally limited to the excess of the Fund’s business interest income over the sum of the Fund’s (i) business interest expense and (ii) other deductions properly allocable to the Fund’s business interest income.
An additional 3.8% Medicare tax is imposed on certain net investment income (including ordinary dividends and capital gain distributions received from a Fund and net gains from redemptions or other taxable dispositions of Fund shares) of U.S. individuals, estates and trusts to the extent that such person’s “modified adjusted gross income” (in the case of an individual) or “adjusted gross income” (in the case of an estate or trust) exceeds certain threshold amounts.
The PIMCO All Asset, PIMCO All Asset All Authority, PIMCO Emerging Markets Full Spectrum Bond, PIMCO Global Core Asset Allocation and PIMCO Inflation Response Multi-Asset Funds will not be able to offset gains realized by one Underlying Fund in which the Funds invest against losses realized by another Underlying Fund in which the Funds invest. Redemptions of shares in an Underlying Fund could also result in a gain and/or income to the PIMCO All Asset, PIMCO All Asset All Authority, PIMCO Emerging Markets Full Spectrum Bond, PIMCO Global Core Asset Allocation and PIMCO Inflation Response Multi-Asset Funds. The Funds’ use of the fund-of-funds structure could therefore affect the amount, timing and character of distributions to shareholders. Redemptions of
229

shares in an Underlying Fund could also cause additional distributable investment company taxable income or net capital gains to shareholders.
The tax treatment of income, gains and losses attributable to foreign currencies (and derivatives on such currencies), and various other special tax rules applicable to certain financial transactions and instruments could affect the amount, timing and character of a Fund’s distributions. In some cases, these tax rules could also result in a retroactive change in the tax character of prior distributions and may also possibly cause all, or a portion, of prior distributions to be reclassified as returns of capital for tax purposes.
Sales of Shares
Upon the disposition of shares of a Fund (whether by redemption, sale or exchange), a shareholder may realize a gain or loss. Such gain or loss will be capital gain or loss if the shares are capital assets in the shareholder’s hands, and will be long-term or short-term generally depending upon the shareholder’s holding period for the shares. Any loss realized on a disposition will be disallowed to the extent the shares disposed of are replaced within a period of 61 days beginning 30 days before and ending 30 days after the shares are disposed of. In such a case, the basis of the shares acquired will be adjusted to reflect the disallowed loss. Any loss realized by a shareholder on a disposition of shares held by the shareholder for six months or less will be treated as a long-term capital loss to the extent of any distributions of capital gain dividends received by the shareholder with respect to such shares. Additionally, any loss realized upon the sale or exchange of Fund shares with a tax holding period of six months or less may be disallowed to the extent of any distributions treated as exempt interest dividends with respect to such shares. If a Fund redeems a shareholder in-kind rather than in cash, the shareholder would realize the same gain or loss as if the shareholder had been redeemed in cash. Further, the shareholder’s basis in the securities received in the in-kind redemption would be the securities’ fair market value on the date of the in-kind redemption.
Your financial intermediary or the Funds (if you hold your shares in a Fund direct account) will report gains and losses realized on redemptions of shares for shareholders who are individuals and S corporations purchased after January 1, 2012 to the IRS. This information will also be reported to you on Form 1099-B and the IRS each year. In calculating the gain or loss on redemptions of shares, the average cost method will be used to determine the cost basis of Fund shares purchased after January 1, 2012 unless you instruct the Fund in writing that you want to use another available method for cost basis reporting (for example, First In, First Out (“FIFO”), Last In, First Out (“LIFO”), Specific Lot Identification (“SLID”) or High Cost, First Out (“HIFO”)). If you designate SLID as your cost basis method, you will also need to designate a secondary cost basis method (Secondary Method). If a Secondary Method is not provided, the Funds will designate FIFO as the Secondary Method and will use the Secondary Method with respect to systematic withdrawals made after January 1, 2012. Your cost basis election method will be applied to all Fund positions for all of your accounts as well as to all future Funds added, unless otherwise indicated by you.
Mutual fund shares acquired prior to January 1, 2012, are not covered by cost basis regulations. When available, average cost will be reported to shareholders who will be solely responsible for calculating and reporting gains and losses realized on the sale of non-covered securities. This information is not reported to the IRS. All non-covered shares will be depleted before the covered shares, starting with the oldest shares first.
When transferring the ownership of covered shares, you must provide account information for the recipient/account receiving shares and the reason the transfer is taking place (i.e., re-registration, inheritance through death, or gift). If a reason is not provided, the transfer will be defaulted as a transfer due to gift. If the recipient’s existing account or new account will use the Average Cost accounting method, they must accept the shares being transferred at fair market value on the date of the gift or settlement if the shares should be transferred at a loss. For transfers due to Inheritance on accounts with Joint Tenants with Rights of Survivorship (JWROS), unless you instruct us otherwise by indicating the ownership percentage of each party, the shares will be split equally with the basis for the decedents portion determined using the fair market value of the date of death and the other portions maintaining the current cost basis.
If a shareholder is a corporation and has not instructed a Fund that it is a C corporation in its account application or by written instruction, the Fund will treat the shareholder as an S corporation and file a Form 1099-B.
230

Potential Pass-Through of Tax Credits
If a Fund invests in Build America Bonds, created by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009, as amended, or any other qualified tax credit bonds, the investment will result in taxable income to such Fund. The applicable Fund may elect to pass through to shareholders the applicable interest income and available tax credits, in which case shareholders will be required to report both the interest income and tax credits as taxable income. Shareholders may be able to claim the tax credits on their federal tax returns against their income tax, including alternative minimum tax, liability. However, such tax credits are generally not refundable. There is no assurance that a Fund will elect to pass through any such income and credits.
Backup Withholding
A Fund may be required to withhold up to 24% of all taxable distributions payable to shareholders who fail to provide the Fund with their correct taxpayer identification number or to make required certifications, or who have been notified by the IRS that they are subject to backup withholding. Corporate shareholders and certain other shareholders specified in the Internal Revenue Code generally are exempt from such backup withholding. Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Any amounts withheld may be credited against the shareholder’s U.S. federal tax liability.
Options, Futures, Forward Contracts, and Swap Agreements
Some of the options, futures contracts, forward contracts, and swap agreements used by the Funds may be considered “section 1256 contracts.” Any gains or losses on section 1256 contracts are generally considered 60% long-term and 40% short-term capital gains or losses (“60/40”) although certain foreign currency gains and losses from such contracts may be treated as ordinary in character. Also, section 1256 contracts held by a Fund at the end of each taxable year (and, for purposes of the 4% excise tax, on certain other dates as prescribed under the Internal Revenue Code) are “marked to market” with the result that unrealized gains or losses are treated as though they were realized and the resulting gain or loss is treated as ordinary or 60/40 gain or loss.
Generally, the hedging transactions and certain other transactions in options, futures and forward contracts undertaken by a Fund, may result in “straddles” for U.S. federal income tax purposes. In some cases, the straddle rules also could apply in connection with swap agreements. The straddle rules may affect the amount, timing and character of gains (or losses) realized by a Fund. In addition, losses realized by a Fund on positions that are part of a straddle may be deferred under the straddle rules, rather than being taken into account in calculating a Fund’s taxable income for the taxable year in which such losses are realized. Because only a few regulations implementing the straddle rules have been promulgated, the tax consequences of transactions in options, futures, forward contracts, and swap agreements to a Fund are not entirely clear. The transactions may increase the amount of short-term capital gain realized by a Fund which generally would be taxed as ordinary income when distributed to shareholders.
A Fund may make one or more of the elections available under the Internal Revenue Code which are applicable to straddles. If a Fund makes any of the elections, the amount, character and timing of the recognition of gains or losses from the affected straddle positions will be determined under rules that vary according to the election(s) made. The rules applicable under certain of the elections operate to accelerate the recognition of gains or losses from the affected straddle positions.
Because application of the straddle rules may affect the character of gains or losses, defer losses and/or accelerate the recognition of gains or losses from the affected straddle positions, the amount which must be distributed to shareholders, and which generally will be taxed to shareholders either as ordinary income or long-term capital gain, may be increased or decreased substantially as compared to a fund that did not engage in such hedging transactions.
Rules governing the tax aspects of swap agreements are in a developing stage and are not entirely clear in certain respects. Accordingly, while the Funds intend to account for such transactions in a manner they deem to be appropriate, the IRS might not accept such treatment. If it did not, the status of a Fund as a regulated investment company might be affected. The Trust intends to monitor developments in this area.
Certain requirements that must be met under the Internal Revenue Code in order for a Fund to qualify as a regulated investment company, including the qualifying income and diversification requirements applicable to a Fund’s
231

assets may limit the extent to which a Fund will be able to engage in transactions in options, futures contracts, forward contracts, and swap agreements.
In addition, the use of swaps or other derivatives could adversely affect the character (capital gain vs. ordinary income) of the income recognized by the Funds for federal income tax purposes, as well as the amount and timing of such recognition, as compared to a direct investment in underlying securities, and could result in a Fund’s recognition of income prior to the receipt of any corresponding cash. As a result of the use of swaps and derivatives, a larger portion of a Fund’s distributions may be treated as ordinary income than would have been the case if the Fund did not enter into such swaps or derivatives. The tax treatment of swap agreements and other derivatives may also be affected by future legislation or Treasury Regulations and/or guidance issued by the IRS that could affect the character, timing and/or amount of a Fund’s taxable income or gains and distributions made by a Fund.
Short Sales
Certain Funds, particularly the PIMCO RAE Fundamental Advantage PLUS and PIMCO StocksPLUS® Short Funds, may engage in short sales of securities. In general, gain or loss on a short sale is recognized when a Fund closes the short sale by delivering the borrowed securities to the lender, not when the borrowed securities are sold. Short sales may increase the amount of short-term capital gain realized by a Fund, which generally would be taxed as ordinary income when distributed to shareholders. In addition, these rules may terminate the holding period of “substantially identical property” held by these Funds. Moreover, a loss recognized by a Fund on a short sale will be treated as a long-term capital loss if, on the date of the short sale, “substantially identical property” has been held by the Fund for more than one year. A Fund generally will not be permitted to deduct payments made to reimburse a lender of securities for dividends paid on borrowed securities if the short sale is closed on or before the 45th day after the Fund enters into the short sale. Short sales also may be subject to the “Constructive Sales” rules, discussed below.
Passive Foreign Investment Companies
Certain Funds may invest in the stock of foreign corporations which may be classified under the Internal Revenue Code as passive foreign investment companies (“PFICs”). In general, a foreign corporation is classified as a PFIC for a taxable year if at least one-half of its assets constitute investment-type assets or 75% or more of its gross income is investment-type income. If a Fund receives a so-called “excess distribution” with respect to PFIC stock, a Fund itself may be subject to tax on a portion of the excess distribution, whether or not the corresponding income is distributed by a Fund to stockholders. In general, under the PFIC rules, an excess distribution is treated as having been realized ratably over the period during which a Fund held the PFIC stock. A Fund itself will be subject to tax on the portion, if any, of an excess distribution that is so allocated to prior taxable years and an interest factor will be added to the tax, as if the tax had been payable in such prior taxable years. Certain distributions from a PFIC as well as gain from the sale of PFIC stock are treated as excess distributions. Excess distributions are characterized as ordinary income even though, absent application of the PFIC rules, certain excess distributions might have been classified as capital gain.
Each Fund may be eligible to elect alternative tax treatment with respect to PFIC stock. Under an election that currently is available in some circumstances a Fund generally would be required to include in its gross income its share of the earnings of a PFIC on a current basis, regardless of whether distributions are received from the PFIC in a given taxable year. If this election were made, the special rules, discussed above, relating to the taxation of excess distributions, would not apply. Alternatively, another election may be available that would involve marking to market a Fund’s PFIC shares at the end of each taxable year, with the result that unrealized gains are treated as though they were realized and reported as ordinary income. Any mark-to-market losses and any loss from an actual disposition of PFIC shares would be deductible as ordinary losses to the extent of any net mark-to-market gains included in income with respect to such shares in prior taxable years. If this election were made, tax at the Fund level under the PFIC rules would generally be eliminated, but the Fund could, in limited circumstances, incur nondeductible interest charges. A Fund’s intention to qualify annually as a regulated investment company may limit its elections with respect to PFIC shares.
Because the application of the PFIC rules may affect, among other things, the character of gains and the amount of gain or loss and the timing of the recognition of income with respect to PFIC shares, and may subject a Fund itself to tax on certain income from PFIC shares, the amount that must be distributed to shareholders and generally will be taxed to shareholders either as ordinary income or long-term capital gain may be increased or decreased substantially as compared to a fund that did not invest in PFIC shares.
232

Foreign Currency Transactions
Under the Internal Revenue Code, gains or losses attributable to fluctuations in exchange rates which occur between the time a Fund accrues income or other receivables or accrues expenses or other liabilities denominated in a foreign currency and the time a Fund actually collects such receivables or pays such liabilities generally are treated as ordinary income or loss. Similarly, on disposition of debt securities denominated in a foreign currency and on disposition of certain other instruments or contracts, gains or losses attributable to fluctuations in the value of the foreign currency between the date of acquisition of the instrument, security or contract and the date of disposition also are treated as ordinary gain or loss. These foreign currency gains and losses, referred to under the Internal Revenue Code as “section 988” gains or losses, may increase or decrease the amount of a Fund’s investment company taxable income to be distributed to its shareholders as ordinary income. A Fund's foreign currency losses are generally treated as realized losses for reporting purposes but may decrease a fund's taxable income and may cause a Fund's distributions to shareholders to be reported as returns of capital for income tax purposes.
Foreign Taxation
Income and gains recognized by the Funds from sources within foreign countries may be subject to withholding and other taxes imposed by such countries. Tax conventions between certain countries and the U.S. may reduce or eliminate such taxes. In addition, PIMCO intends to manage the Funds with the intention of minimizing foreign taxation in cases where it is deemed prudent to do so. If more than 50% of the value of a Fund’s total assets at the close of its taxable year consists of securities of foreign corporations or foreign governments, the Fund will be eligible to elect to “pass-through” to the Fund’s shareholders the amount of foreign income and similar taxes paid by the Fund. A Fund of Funds may also be eligible to make this election. If this election is made, a shareholder subject to tax generally will be required to include in gross income (in addition to taxable dividends actually received) his or her pro rata share of the foreign taxes paid by the Fund, and may be entitled either to deduct (as an itemized deduction) his or her pro rata share of foreign taxes in computing his or her taxable income or to use it (subject to limitations) as a foreign tax credit against his or her U.S. federal income tax liability. No deduction for foreign taxes may be claimed by a shareholder who does not itemize deductions. Each shareholder will be notified after the close of the Fund’s taxable year whether any foreign income or related foreign taxes paid by the Fund will “pass-through” for that taxable year.
Generally, a credit for foreign taxes is subject to the limitation that it may not exceed a shareholder’s U.S. tax attributable to such shareholder’s total foreign source taxable income. For this purpose, if the pass-through election is made, the source of a Fund’s income will flow through to shareholders of the Fund. With respect to such Fund, gains from the sale of securities will be treated as derived from U.S. sources and certain currency fluctuation gains, including fluctuation gains from foreign currency-denominated debt securities, receivables and payables will be treated as ordinary income derived from U.S. sources. Furthermore, any amounts received by a Fund in place of dividends earned and any related withholding taxes incurred on a security while such security was subject to a securities loan, respectively, will not qualify as foreign income and will not qualify as a foreign tax paid by such Fund and, therefore, will not be able to be passed through to shareholders even if the Fund satisfies the requirements described above. The limitation on the foreign tax credit is applied separately to foreign source passive income, and to certain other types of income. Shareholders may be unable to claim a credit for the full amount of their proportionate share of the foreign taxes paid by the Fund. Various other limitations, including a minimum holding period requirement, apply to limit the credit and/or deduction for foreign taxes for purposes of regular federal tax and/or alternative minimum tax.
Original Issue Discount and Market Discount
Some of the debt securities (with a fixed maturity date of more than one year from the date of issuance) that may be acquired by a Fund may be treated as debt securities that are issued originally at a discount. Generally, the amount of the original issue discount (“OID”) is treated as interest income and is included in income over the term of the debt security, even though payment of that amount is not received until a later time, usually when the debt security matures. A portion of the OID includable in income with respect to certain high-yield corporate debt securities may be treated as a dividend for federal income tax purposes.
Some of the debt securities (with a fixed maturity date of more than one year from the date of issuance) that may be acquired by a Fund in the secondary market may be treated as having market discount. Generally, any gain recognized on the disposition of, and any partial payment of principal on, a debt security having market discount is treated as ordinary income to the extent the gain, or principal payment, does not exceed the “accrued market discount”
233

on such debt security. Market discount generally accrues in equal daily installments. A Fund may make one or more of the elections applicable to debt securities having market discount, which could affect the character and timing of recognition of income.
Some debt securities (with a fixed maturity date of one year or less from the date of issuance) that may be acquired by a Fund may be treated as having acquisition discount, or OID in the case of certain types of debt securities. Generally, a Fund will be required to include the acquisition discount, or OID, in income over the term of the debt security, even though payment of that amount is not received until a later time, usually when the debt security matures. A Fund may make one or more of the elections applicable to debt securities having acquisition discount, or OID, which could affect the character and timing of recognition of income.
A Fund generally will be required to distribute dividends to shareholders representing discount on debt securities that is currently includable in income, even though cash representing such income may not have been received by the Fund. Cash to pay such dividends may be obtained from sales proceeds of securities held by a Fund.
Investments in REITs and REMICs
Some of the Funds may invest in REITs. Such investments in REIT equity securities may require a Fund to accrue and distribute income not yet received. In order to generate sufficient cash to make the requisite distributions, a Fund may be required to sell securities in its portfolio (including when it is not advantageous to do so) that it otherwise would have continued to hold. A Fund’s investments in REIT equity securities may at other times result in a Fund’s receipt of cash in excess of the REIT’s earnings; if a Fund distributes such amounts, such distribution could constitute a return of capital to Fund shareholders for federal income tax purposes. Dividends received by a Fund from a REIT generally will not constitute qualified dividend income. Individuals (and certain other non-corporate entities) are generally eligible for a 20% deduction with respect to taxable ordinary REIT dividends. Treasury regulations allow a Fund to pass through to its shareholders such taxable ordinary REIT dividends. Accordingly, individual (and certain other non-corporate) shareholders of a Fund that have received such taxable ordinary REIT dividends may be able to take advantage of this 20% deduction with respect to any such amounts passed through.
As discussed above, a Fund or some of the REITs in which a Fund may invest may be permitted to hold senior or residual interests in REMICs or debt or equity interests in TMPs. Under Treasury regulations not yet issued, but that may apply retroactively, a portion of a Fund’s income from a REIT that is attributable to the REIT’s residual interest in a REMIC or a TMP (referred to in the Internal Revenue Code as an “excess inclusion”) will be subject to federal income tax in all events. These regulations are expected to provide that excess inclusion income of a regulated investment company, such as a Fund, will be allocated to shareholders of the regulated investment company in proportion to the dividends received by shareholders, with the same consequences as if shareholders held the related REMIC residual or TMP interest directly.
In general, excess inclusion income allocated to shareholders (i) cannot be offset by net operating losses (subject to a limited exception for certain thrift institutions), (ii) will constitute unrelated business taxable income to entities (including a qualified pension plan, an individual retirement account, a 401(k) plan, a Keogh plan or other tax-exempt entity) subject to tax on unrelated business income, thereby potentially requiring such an entity that is allocated excess inclusion income, and that otherwise might not be required to file a tax return, to file a tax return and pay tax on such income, and (iii) in the case of a non-U.S. shareholder, will not qualify for any reduction in U.S. federal withholding tax.
If at any time during any taxable year a “disqualified organization” (as defined in the Internal Revenue Code) is a record holder of a share in a regulated investment company earning excess inclusion income, then the regulated investment company will be subject to a tax equal to that portion of its excess inclusion income for the taxable year that is allocable to the disqualified organization, multiplied by the highest federal income tax rate imposed on corporations. It is not expected that a substantial portion of a Fund’s assets will be residual interests in REMICs. Additionally, the Funds do not intend to invest in REITs in which a substantial portion of the assets will consist of residual interests in REMICs.
234

Uncertain Tax Consequences
A Fund may invest a portion of its net assets in below investment grade instruments. Investments in these types of instruments may present special tax issues for the Fund. U.S. federal income tax rules are not entirely clear about issues such as when the Fund may cease to accrue interest, original issue discount or market discount, when and to what extent deductions may be taken for bad debts or worthless instruments, how payments received on obligations in default should be allocated between principal and income and whether exchanges of debt obligations in a bankruptcy or workout context are taxable. These and other issues will be addressed by the Funds to the extent necessary in order to seek to ensure that they distribute sufficient income that they do not become subject to U.S. federal income or excise tax.
Constructive Sales
Certain rules may affect the timing and character of gain if a Fund engages in transactions that reduce or eliminate its risk of loss with respect to appreciated financial positions. If a Fund enters into certain transactions in property while holding substantially identical property, a Fund would be treated as if it had sold and immediately repurchased the property and would be subject to tax on any gain (but not loss) from the constructive sale. The character of gain from a constructive sale would depend upon a Fund’s holding period in the property. Loss from a constructive sale would be recognized when the property was subsequently disposed of, and its character would depend on a Fund’s holding period and the application of various loss deferral provisions of the Internal Revenue Code.
IRAs and Other Retirement Plans
If you invest in a Fund through an IRA or other retirement plan, you should consult with your own tax adviser on the applicable rules for such IRA or retirement plan with respect to plan qualification requirements, limits on contributions and distributions, and required distributions from IRAs and retirement plans. As an example, there could be tax penalties on distributions from an IRA or other retirement plan prior to age 59 1/2. Certain minimum distribution requirements may also apply to IRAs or other retirement plans that, among other things, require you to begin receiving distributions by April 1 of the year following the calendar year in which you reach age 72. Failure to follow these requirements and other applicable requirements may result in significant additional taxes and penalties. It is your responsibility to ensure that you comply with these and other requirements.
Non-U.S. Shareholders
Withholding of Income Tax on Dividends: Under U.S. federal tax law, dividends paid on shares beneficially held by a person who is a “foreign person” within the meaning of the Internal Revenue Code, are, in general, subject to withholding of U.S. federal income tax at a rate of 30% of the gross dividend, which may, in some cases, be reduced by an applicable tax treaty. However, if the dividends are effectively connected with the conduct by the beneficial holder of a trade or business in the United States, the dividend will generally be subject to U.S. federal net income taxation at regular income tax rates. Distributions of long-term net realized capital gains generally will not be subject to withholding of U.S. federal income tax.
A Fund may invest in the securities of corporations that invest in U.S. real property, including U.S. REITs. The sale or other disposition of a U.S. real property interest (“USRPI”) by a Fund, a U.S. REIT, or a U.S. real property holding corporation in which the Fund invests may trigger special tax consequences to the Fund’s non-U.S. shareholders. The Foreign Investment in Real Property Tax Act, as amended (“FIRPTA”), makes non-U.S. persons subject to U.S. tax on the sale or other disposition of a USRPI as if such person was a U.S. person. Such gain is sometimes referred to as FIRPTA gain. The Code provides a look-through rule for distributions of FIRPTA gain by certain regulated investment companies received from U.S. REITs. Because each Fund expects to invest less than 50% of its assets at all times, directly or indirectly, in USRPIs, each Fund expects that neither gain on the sale or redemption of Fund shares nor Fund dividends and distributions would be subject to FIRPTA reporting and any related tax withholding.
A Fund is generally able to report certain distributions to non-U.S. shareholders as being derived from certain net interest income or net short-term capital gains and such reported distributions are generally not subject to U.S. tax withholding. However, distributions that are derived from other sources, such as dividends on corporate stock, foreign
235

currency gains, foreign source interest, and ordinary income from swaps or investments in PFICs, would still be subject to U.S. tax withholding when distributed to non-U.S. shareholders. Moreover, in the case of Fund shares held through an intermediary, the intermediary may have withheld amounts even if a Fund reported all or a portion of a distribution as exempt from U.S. tax withholding. Affected non-U.S. shareholders should contact their intermediaries regarding the application of these rules to their accounts. There can be no assurance as to the amount of distributions that would not be subject to U.S. tax withholding when paid to non-U.S. shareholders.
The Funds are required to withhold U.S. tax (at a 30% rate) on payments of taxable dividends made to certain non-U.S. entities that fail to comply (or be deemed compliant) with extensive new reporting and withholding requirements designed to inform the U.S. Department of the Treasury of U.S.-owned foreign investment accounts. Shareholders may be requested to provide additional information to the Funds to enable the Funds to determine whether withholding is required.
Income Tax on Sale of a Fund’s shares: Under U.S. federal tax law, a beneficial holder of shares who is a foreign person is not, in general, subject to U.S. federal income tax on gains (and is not allowed a deduction for losses) realized on the sale of such shares unless (i) the shares in question are effectively connected with a permanent establishment in the United States of the beneficial holder and such gain is effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business carried on by such holder within the United States or (ii) in the case of an individual holder, the holder is present in the United States for a period or periods aggregating 183 days or more during the year of the sale and certain other conditions are met.
State and Local Tax: A beneficial holder of shares who is a foreign person may be subject to state and local tax in addition to the federal tax on income referred above.
Estate and Gift Taxes: Upon the death of a beneficial holder of shares who is a foreign person, such shares will be deemed to be property situated within the United States and may be subject to U.S. federal estate tax. If at the time of death the deceased holder is a resident of a foreign country and not a citizen or resident of the United States, such tax will be imposed at graduated rates from 18% to 40% on the total value (less allowable deductions and allowable credits) of the decedent’s property situated within the United States. In general, there is no gift tax on gifts of shares by a beneficial holder who is a foreign person.
The availability of reduced U.S. taxation pursuant to any applicable treaties depends upon compliance with established procedures for claiming the benefits thereof and may further, in some circumstances, depend upon making a satisfactory demonstration to U.S. tax authorities that a foreign investor qualifies as a foreign person under U.S. domestic tax law and such treaties.
Other Taxation
Distributions also may be subject to additional state, local and foreign taxes, depending on each shareholder’s particular situation. Under the laws of various states, distributions of investment company taxable income generally are taxable to shareholders even though all or a substantial portion of such distributions may be derived from interest on certain federal obligations which, if the interest were received directly by a resident of such state, would be exempt from such state’s income tax (“qualifying federal obligations”). However, some states may exempt all or a portion of such distributions from income tax to the extent the shareholder is able to establish that the distribution is derived from qualifying federal obligations. Moreover, for state income tax purposes, interest on some federal obligations generally is not exempt from taxation, whether received directly by a shareholder or through distributions of investment company taxable income (for example, interest on FNMA Certificates and GNMA Certificates). Each Fund will provide information annually to shareholders indicating the amount and percentage of the Fund’s dividend distribution that is attributable to interest on federal obligations, and will indicate to the extent possible from what types of federal obligations such dividends are derived. Shareholders are advised to consult their own tax advisers with respect to the particular tax consequences to them of an investment in a Fund.

Other Information
Capitalization
The Trust is a Massachusetts business trust established under a Declaration of Trust dated February 19, 1987, as amended and restated November 4, 2014. The capitalization of the Trust consists solely of an unlimited number of shares of beneficial interest with a par value of $0.01 each. The Board of Trustees may establish additional series (with different investment objectives and fundamental policies) at any time in the future. Establishment and offering of additional series will not alter the rights of the Trust’s shareholders. When issued, shares are fully paid, non-assessable, redeemable and freely transferable. Shares do not have preemptive rights or subscription rights. In liquidation of a Fund, each shareholder is entitled to receive his or her pro rata share of the net assets of that Fund.
Under Massachusetts law, shareholders could, under certain circumstances, be held personally liable for the obligations of the Trust. However, the Declaration of Trust disclaims liability of the shareholders, Trustees or officers of the Trust for acts or obligations of the Trust, which are binding only on the assets and property of the Trust, and requires that notice of the disclaimer be given in each contract or obligation entered into or executed by the Trust or the Trustees. The Declaration of Trust also provides for indemnification out of Trust property for all loss and expense of any shareholder held personally liable for the obligations of the Trust. The risk of a shareholder incurring financial loss on account of shareholder liability is limited to circumstances in which such disclaimer is inoperative or the Trust itself is unable to meet its obligations, and thus should be considered remote.
Information on PIMCO Global Bond Opportunities Fund (U.S. Dollar-Hedged)
The table below sets forth the average annual total return of certain classes of shares of the PIMCO Global Bond Opportunities Fund (U.S. Dollar-Hedged) (which was a series of PIMCO Advisors Funds (“PAF”) prior to its reorganization as a Fund of the Trust on January 17, 1997) for the periods ended March 31, 2022. Accordingly, “Inception Date of Fund” refers to the inception date of the PAF predecessor series. Since Class A shares were offered since the inception of PIMCO Global Bond Opportunities Fund (U.S. Dollar-Hedged), total return presentations for periods prior to the Inception Date of the Institutional Class are based on the historical performance of Class A shares, adjusted to reflect that the Institutional Class does not have a sales charge, and the different operating expenses associated with the Institutional Class, such as 12b-1 distribution and servicing fees and administrative fee charges.

After-tax returns are calculated using the highest historical individual federal marginal income tax rates and do not reflect the impact of state and local taxes. Actual after-tax returns depend on an investor’s tax situation
237

and may differ from those shown, and the after-tax returns shown are not relevant to investors who hold their Fund shares through tax-deferred arrangements, such as 401(k) plans or individual retirement accounts. In some cases the return after taxes may exceed the return before taxes due to an assumed tax benefit from any losses on a sale of Fund shares at the end of the measurement period. After-tax returns are for Institutional Class and Class A shares only. After-tax returns for Class C shares will vary.
(*)
Institutional Class total return presentations for periods prior to the Inception Date of that class reflect the prior performance of Class A shares of the former PAF series, adjusted to reflect the fact that there are no sales charges on Institutional Class shares of the Fund. The adjusted performance also reflects any different operating expenses associated with Institutional Class shares. These include (i) 12b-1 distribution and servicing fees, which are not paid by the Institutional Class but are paid by Class A (at a maximum rate of 0.25% per annum), and (ii) administrative fee charges, which are lower for Institutional Class shares (at a differential of 0.15% per annum).
Note also that, prior to January 17, 1997, Class A, Class C shares of the PIMCO Global Bond Opportunities Fund (U.S. Dollar-Hedged) were subject to a variable level of expenses for such services as legal, audit, custody and transfer agency services. As described in the Class A and C Prospectus, for periods subsequent to January 17, 1997, Class A and Class C shares of the Trust are subject to a fee structure which essentially fixes these expenses (along with other administrative expenses) under a single administrative fee based on the average daily net assets of the Fund attributable to Class A and Class C shares. Under the current fee structure, the PIMCO Global Bond Opportunities Fund (U.S. Dollar-Hedged) is expected to have lower total Fund operating expenses than its predecessor had under the fee structure for PAF (prior to January 17, 1997). All other things being equal, the higher expenses of PAF would have adversely affected total return performance for the Fund after January 17, 1997.
The method of adjustment used in the table above for periods prior to the Inception Date of Institutional Class shares of the PIMCO Global Bond Opportunities Fund (U.S. Dollar-Hedged) resulted in performance for the period shown that is higher than if the historical Class A performance were not adjusted to reflect the lower operating expenses of the newer class. The following table shows the lower performance figures that would be obtained if the performance for the Institutional Class was calculated by tacking to the Institutional Class’ actual performance the actual performance of Class A shares (with their higher operating expenses) for periods prior to the initial offering date of the newer class (i.e., the total return presentations below are based, for periods prior to the inception date of the Institutional Class, on the historical performance of Class A shares adjusted to reflect the current sales charges associated with Class A shares, but not reflecting lower operating expenses associated with the Institutional Class, such as lower administrative fee charges and/or distribution and servicing fee charges).

Voting Rights
Under the Declaration of Trust, the Trust is not required to hold annual meetings of Trust shareholders to elect Trustees or for other purposes. It is not anticipated that the Trust will hold shareholders’ meetings unless required by law or the Declaration of Trust. In this regard, the Trust will be required to hold a meeting to elect Trustees to fill any existing vacancies on the Board of Trustees if, at any time, fewer than a majority of the Trustees have been elected by the shareholders of the Trust. In addition, the Declaration of Trust provides that the holders of not less than two-thirds of the outstanding shares of the Trust may remove a person serving as Trustee either by declaration in writing or at any shareholder meeting. The Trustees are required to call a meeting for the purpose of considering the removal of a person serving as Trustee if requested in writing to do so by the holders of not less than ten percent of the outstanding shares of the Trust. In the event that such a request was made, the Trust has represented that it would assist with any necessary shareholder communications. Shareholders of a class of shares have different voting rights with respect to matters that affect only that class.
238

The Trust’s shares do not have cumulative voting rights, so that the holder of more than 50% of the outstanding shares may elect the entire Board of Trustees, in which case the holders of the remaining shares would not be able to elect any Trustees. To avoid potential conflicts of interest, the PIMCO All Asset, PIMCO All Asset All Authority, PIMCO Emerging Markets Full Spectrum Bond, PIMCO Global Core Asset Allocation and PIMCO Inflation Response Multi-Asset Funds will vote shares of each Underlying PIMCO Fund which they own in proportion to the votes of all other shareholders in the Underlying PIMCO Fund. In addition, to the extent the Funds own shares of a PIMCO-sponsored money market fund or short-term bond fund as discussed above, the Funds will vote such shares in proportion to the votes of all other shareholders of the respective money market or short-term bond fund. If such money market or short-term bond fund has no other shareholders except the Funds and other PIMCO-advised funds, the Funds will vote such shares in proportion to the votes of the respective Fund’s shareholders on the proposal, or if such Fund’s shareholders are not solicited for their vote on the same proposal, such Fund will vote such shares in proportion to the votes of all other shareholders of the respective money market or short-term bond fund.

Code of Ethics
The Trust, PIMCO, Research Affiliates and the Distributor each has adopted a Code of Ethics pursuant to the requirements of the 1940 Act and the Advisers Act. These Codes of Ethics permit personnel, subject to the Codes of Ethics, to invest in securities, including securities that may be purchased or held by the Funds, and such personnel do, from time to time, invest in securities held by the Funds.
Custodian, Transfer Agent and Dividend Disbursing Agent
State Street Bank and Trust Company (“State Street”), 801 Pennsylvania, Kansas City, Missouri 64105, serves as custodian for assets of the Funds. Under the custody agreement, State Street may hold the foreign securities at its principal office at 225 Franklin Street, Boston, Massachusetts 02110, and at State Street’s branches, and subject to approval by the Board of Trustees, at a foreign branch of a qualified U.S. bank, with an eligible foreign subcustodian, or with an eligible foreign securities depository. State Street also serves as custodian for assets of the CRRS Subsidiary, GCAA Subsidiary, CPS Subsidiary, IRMA Subsidiary, MF Subsidiary and CSF Subsidiary. 
Pursuant to rules adopted under the 1940 Act, the Trust may maintain foreign securities and cash in the custody of certain eligible foreign banks and securities depositories. Selection of these foreign custodial institutions is made by the Board of Trustees following a consideration of a number of factors, including (but not limited to) the reliability and financial stability of the institution; the ability of the institution to perform capably custodial services for the Trust; the reputation of the institution in its national market; the political and economic stability of the country in which the institution is located; and further risks of potential nationalization or expropriation of Trust assets. The Board of Trustees reviews annually the continuance of foreign custodial arrangements for the Trust. No assurance can be given that the Trustees’ appraisal of the risks in connection with foreign custodial arrangements will always be correct or that expropriation, nationalization, freezes, or confiscation of assets that would impact assets of the Funds will not occur, and shareholders bear the risk of losses arising from these or other events.

Box 219024, Kansas City, Missouri 64121-9094, serves as transfer agent and dividend disbursing agent for the Institutional Class, Class M, I-2, I-3 and Administrative Class shares of the Funds.
