Dear Shareholder:
We hope you find the semiannual report for the Prudential Jennison Equity Income Fund informative and useful. The report covers performance for the six-month period that ended April 30, 2016.
Since market conditions change over time, we believe it is important to maintain a diversified portfolio of funds consistent with your tolerance for risk, time horizon, and financial goals.
Your financial advisor can help you create a diversified investment plan that may include funds covering all the basic asset classes and that reflects your personal investor profile and risk tolerance. Keep in mind, however, that diversification and asset allocation strategies do not assure a profit or protect against loss in declining markets.
Prudential Investments® is dedicated to helping you solve your toughest investment challenges—whether it’s capital growth, reliable income, or protection from market volatility and other risks. We offer the expertise of Prudential Financial’s affiliated asset managers that strive to be leaders in a broad range of funds to help you stay on course to the future you envision. They also manage money for major corporations and pension funds around the world, which means you benefit from the same expertise, innovation, and attention to risk demanded by today’s most sophisticated investors.
Thank you for choosing the Prudential Investments family of funds.
Sincerely,

Returns for the Lipper Average and the Lipper Equity Income Funds Index reflect the deduction of mutual fund operating expenses, but not sales charges or taxes. The Since Inception returns for the Indexes and the Lipper Average are measured from the closest month-end to the inception date for the indicated share class.

Fees and Expenses (unaudited)
As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchase payments and redemptions, as applicable, and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees, and other Fund expenses, as applicable. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested on November 1, 2015, at the beginning of the period, and held through the six-month period ended April 30, 2016. The example is for illustrative purposes only; you should consult the Prospectus for information on initial and subsequent minimum investment requirements.
Actual Expenses
The first line for each share class in the table on the following page provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information on this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value ÷ $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number on the first line under the heading “Expenses Paid During the Six-Month Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The second line for each share class in the table on the following page provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
The Fund’s transfer agent may charge additional fees to holders of certain accounts that are not included in the expenses shown in the table on the following page. These fees apply to individual retirement accounts (IRAs) and Section 403(b) accounts. As of the close of the six-month period covered by the table, IRA fees included an annual maintenance fee of $15 per account (subject to a maximum annual maintenance fee of $25 for all accounts held by the same shareholder). Section 403(b) accounts are charged an annual $25 fiduciary maintenance fee. Some of the fees may vary in amount, or may be waived, based on your total account balance or the number of Prudential Investments funds, including the Fund, that you own. You should consider the additional fees that were charged to your
| | | | |

Fees and Expenses (continued)
Fund account over the six-month period when you estimate the total ongoing expenses paid over the period and the impact of these fees on your ending account value, as these additional expenses are not reflected in the information provided in the expense table. Additional fees have the effect of reducing investment returns.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs such as sales charges (loads). Therefore, the second line for each share class in the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

*Fund expenses (net of fee waivers or subsidies, if any) for each share class are equal to the annualized expense ratio for each share class (provided in the table), multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by the 182 days in the six-month period ended April 30, 2016, and divided by the 366 days in the Fund’s fiscal year ending October 31, 2016 (to reflect the six-month period). Expenses presented in the table include the expenses of any underlying portfolios in which the Fund may invest.

Notes to Financial Statements (unaudited)
Prudential Investment Portfolios, Inc. 10 (the “Company”) is an open-end management investment company, registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (“1940 Act”). The Company was organized on March 5, 1997, as a Maryland Corporation. The Company operates as a series company. At April 30, 2016, the Company consisted of two diversified investment portfolios (each a “Fund” and collectively the “Funds”). The information presented in these financial statements pertains to Prudential Jennison Equity Income Fund (the “Fund”). The financial statements of the other portfolio are not presented herein. The investment objective of the Fund is income and capital appreciation.
1. Accounting Policies
The Fund follows investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standard Codification Topic 946 Financial Services—Investment Companies. The following accounting policies conform to U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The Fund consistently follows such policies in the preparation of its financial statements.
Securities Valuation: The Fund holds securities and other assets that are fair valued at the close of each day (generally, 4:00 PM Eastern time) the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) is open for trading. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The Board of Directors (the “Board”) has adopted Valuation Procedures for security valuation under which fair valuation responsibilities have been delegated to Prudential Investments LLC (“PI”). Under the current Valuation Procedures, the established Valuation Committee is responsible for supervising the valuation of portfolio securities and other assets. The Valuation Procedures permit the Fund to utilize independent pricing vendor services, quotations from market makers, and alternative valuation methods when market quotations are either not readily available or not deemed representative of fair value. A record of the Valuation Committee’s actions is subject to the Board’s review, approval, and ratification at its next regularly-scheduled quarterly meeting.
Various inputs determine how the Fund’s investments are valued, all of which are categorized according to the three broad levels (Level 1, 2, or 3) detailed in the table following the Portfolio of Investments.
Common and preferred stocks, exchange-traded funds, and derivative instruments such as futures or options that are traded on a national securities exchange are valued at the last sale price as of the close of trading on the applicable exchange where the security principally trades. Securities traded via NASDAQ are valued at the NASDAQ official closing price. To the extent these securities are valued at the last sale price or NASDAQ official closing price, they are classified as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy.
In the event that no sale or official closing price on valuation date exists, these securities are generally valued at the mean between the last reported bid and ask prices, or at the last bid price in the absence of an ask price. These securities are classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.
Common and preferred stocks traded on foreign securities exchanges are valued using pricing vendor services that provide model prices derived using adjustment factors based on information such as local closing price, relevant general and sector indices, currency fluctuations, depositary receipts, and futures, as applicable. Securities valued using such model prices are classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. The models generate an evaluated adjustment factor for each security, which can be applied to the local closing price to adjust it for post closing market movements. Utilizing that evaluated adjustment factor, the vendor provides an evaluated price to the extent that the valuation meets the established confidence level for each security. Such confidence level is a measure of the probability of a relationship between a given equity security and the factors used in the models. If the confidence level is not met or the vendor does not provide an evaluated price securities are valued in accordance with exchange-traded common and preferred stocks discussed above.
Participatory notes (“P-notes”) are generally valued based upon the value of a related underlying security that trades actively in the market and are classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.
Investments in open-end, non-exchange-traded mutual funds are valued at their net asset values as of the close of the NYSE on the date of valuation. These securities are classified as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy since they may be purchased or sold at their net asset values on the date of valuation.
Fixed income securities traded in the OTC market are generally valued at prices provided by approved independent pricing vendors. The pricing vendors provide these prices after evaluating observable inputs including, but not limited to yield curves, yield spreads, credit ratings, deal terms, tranche level attributes, default rates, cash flows, prepayment speeds, broker/dealer quotations, and reported trades. Securities valued using such vendor prices are classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.
Bank loans traded in the OTC market are generally valued at prices provided by approved independent pricing vendors. The pricing vendors utilize broker/dealer quotations and provide prices based on the average of such quotations. Bank loans valued using such vendor prices are generally classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.
OTC derivative instruments are generally valued using pricing vendor services, which derive the valuation based on inputs such as underlying asset prices, indices, spreads, interest rates, and exchange rates. These instruments are categorized as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.

Notes to Financial Statements (unaudited) (continued)
Centrally cleared swaps listed or traded on a multilateral or trade facility platform, such as a registered exchange, are generally valued at the daily settlement price determined by the respective exchange. These securities are classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy, as the daily settlement price is not public.
Securities and other assets that cannot be priced according to the methods described above are valued based on pricing methodologies approved by the Board. In the event that unobservable inputs are used when determining such valuations, the securities will be classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.
When determining the fair value of securities, some of the factors influencing the valuation include: the nature of any restrictions on disposition of the securities; assessment of the general liquidity of the securities; the issuer’s financial condition and the markets in which it does business; the cost of the investment; the size of the holding and the capitalization of the issuer; the prices of any recent transactions or bids/offers for such securities or any comparable securities; any available analyst media or other reports or information deemed reliable by the investment adviser regarding the issuer or the markets or industry in which it operates. Using fair value to price securities may result in a value that is different from a security’s most recent closing price and from the price used by other mutual funds to calculate their net asset values.
Restricted and Illiquid Securities: Subject to the guidelines adopted by the Board, the Fund may invest up to 15% of its net assets in illiquid securities, including those which are restricted as to disposition under securities law (“restricted securities”). Restricted securities are valued pursuant to the valuation procedures noted above. Illiquid securities are those that, because of the absence of a readily available market or due to legal or contractual restrictions on resale, cannot be sold within seven days in the ordinary course of business at approximately the amount at which the Fund has valued the investment. Therefore, the Fund may find it difficult to sell illiquid securities at the time considered most advantageous by its Subadviser and may incur expenses that would not be incurred in the sale of securities that were freely marketable. Certain securities that would otherwise be considered illiquid because of legal restrictions on resale to the general public may be traded among qualified institutional buyers under Rule 144A of the Securities Act of 1933. These Rule 144A securities, as well as commercial paper that is sold in private placements under Section 4(2) of the Securities Act, may be deemed liquid by the Fund’s Subadviser under the guidelines adopted by the Directors of the Fund. However, the liquidity of the Fund’s investments in Rule 144A securities could be impaired if trading does not develop or declines.
Foreign Currency Translation: The books and records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Foreign currency amounts are translated into U.S. dollars on the following basis:
(i) market value of investment securities, other assets and liabilities—at the current rates of exchange.
(ii) purchases and sales of investment securities, income and expenses—at the rates of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions.
Although the net assets of the Fund are presented at the foreign exchange rates and market values at the close of the period, the Fund does not generally isolate that portion of the results of operations arising as a result of changes in the foreign exchange rates from the fluctuations arising from changes in the market prices of long-term portfolio securities held at the end of the period. Similarly, the Fund does not isolate the effect of changes in foreign exchange rates from the fluctuations arising from changes in the market prices of long-term portfolio securities sold during the period. Accordingly, holding period realized foreign currency gains (losses) are included in the reported net realized gains (losses) on investment transactions. Notwithstanding the above, the Fund does isolate the effect of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates when determining the gain (loss) upon the sale or maturity of foreign currency denominated debt obligations; such amounts are included in net realized gains (losses) on foreign currency transactions.
Net realized gains (losses) on foreign currency transactions represent net foreign exchange gains (losses) from holdings of foreign currencies and forward currency contracts disposition of foreign currencies, currency gains (losses) realized between the trade and settlement dates on security transactions, and the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Fund’s books and the U.S. dollar equivalent amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized currency gains (losses) from valuing foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities (other than investments) at period end exchange rates are reflected as a component of net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on foreign currencies.
Concentration of Risk: Foreign security and currency transactions may involve certain considerations and risks not typically associated with those of domestic origin as a result of, among other factors, the possibility of political or economic instability or the level of governmental supervision and regulation of foreign securities markets.
Options: The Fund purchased and wrote options in order to hedge against adverse market movements or fluctuations in value caused by changes in prevailing interest rates, value of equities or foreign currency exchange rates, with respect to securities which the Fund currently owns or intends to purchase. The Fund may also use options to gain additional market exposure. The Fund’s principal reason for writing options is to realize, through receipt of premiums, a greater current return than would be realized on the underlying security alone. When the Fund purchases an option, it pays a premium and an amount equal to that premium is recorded as an asset. When the Fund writes an option, it receives a premium and an amount equal to that premium is recorded as a liability. The asset or
| | | | |
Prudential Jennison Equity Income Fund | | | 25 | |
Notes to Financial Statements (unaudited) (continued)
liability is adjusted daily to reflect the current market value of the option. If an option expires unexercised, the Fund realizes a gain (loss) to the extent of the premium received or paid. If an option is exercised, the premium received or paid is recorded as an adjustment to the proceeds from the sale or the cost of the purchase in determining whether the Fund has realized a gain or loss. The difference between the premium and the amount received or paid at the closing of a purchase or sale transaction is also treated as a realized gain (loss). Gain or loss on purchased options is included in net realized gain or loss on investment transactions. Gain (loss) on written options is presented separately as net realized gain or loss on options written. The Fund, as writer of an option, may have no control over whether the underlying securities may be sold (called) or purchased (put). As a result, the Fund bears the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the security underlying the written option. The Fund, as purchaser of an OTC option, bears the risk of the potential inability of the counterparties to meet the terms of their contracts. With exchange-traded options contracts, there is minimal counterparty credit risk to the Fund since the exchanges’ clearinghouse acts as counterparty to all exchange-traded options and guarantees the options contracts against default.
Master Netting Arrangements: The Fund is subject to various Master Agreements, or netting arrangements, with select counterparties. These are agreements which a subadviser may have negotiated and entered into on behalf of the Fund. A master netting arrangement between the Fund and the counterparty permits the Fund to offset amounts payable by the Fund to the same counterparty against amounts to be received; and by the receipt of collateral from the counterparty by the Fund to cover the Fund’s exposure to the counterparty. However, there is no assurance that such mitigating factors are easily enforceable. In addition to master netting arrangements, the right to set-off exists when all the conditions are met such that each of the parties owes the other determinable amounts, the reporting party has the right to set-off the amount owed with the amount owed by the other party, the reporting party intends to set-off and the right of set-off is enforceable by law. During the reporting period, there was no intention to settle on a net basis and all amounts are presented on a gross basis on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
The Fund is a party to ISDA (International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc.) Master Agreements with certain counterparties that govern OTC derivative and foreign exchange contracts entered into from time to time. The Master Agreements may contain provisions regarding, among other things, the parties’ general obligations, representations, agreements, collateral requirements, events of default and early termination. With respect to certain counterparties, in accordance with the terms of the Master Agreements, collateral posted to the Fund is held in a segregated account by the Fund’s custodian and with respect to those amounts which can be sold or re-pledged, is presented in the Portfolio of Investments. Collateral pledged by the Fund is segregated by the Fund’s custodian and identified in the Portfolio of Investments. Collateral can be in the form of cash or debt
securities issued by the U.S. Government or related agencies or other securities as agreed to by the Fund and the applicable counterparty. Collateral requirements are determined based on the Fund’s net position with each counterparty. Termination events applicable to the Fund may occur upon a decline in the Fund’s net assets below a specified threshold over a certain period of time. Termination events applicable to counterparties may occur upon a decline in the counterparty’s long-term and short term credit ratings below a specified level. In each case, upon occurrence, the other party may elect to terminate early and cause settlement of all derivative and foreign exchange contracts outstanding, including the payment of any losses and costs resulting from such early termination, as reasonably determined by the terminating party. Any decision by one or more of the Fund’s counterparties to elect early termination could impact the Fund’s future derivative activity.
In addition to each instrument’s primary underlying risk exposure (e.g. interest rate, credit, equity or foreign exchange, etc.), swap agreements involve, to varying degrees, elements of credit, market and documentation risk. Such risks involve the possibility that no liquid market for these agreements will exist, the counterparty to the agreement may default on its obligation to perform or disagree on the contractual terms of the agreement, and changes in net interest rates will be unfavorable. In connection with these agreements, securities in the portfolio may be identified or received as collateral from the counterparty in accordance with the terms of the respective swap agreements to provide or receive assets of value and to serve as recourse in the event of default or bankruptcy/ insolvency of either party. Such OTC derivative agreements include conditions which, when materialized, give the counterparty the right to cause an early termination of the transactions under those agreements. Any election by the counterparty for early termination of the contract(s) may impact the amounts reported on financial statements.
As of April 30, 2016, the Fund has not met conditions under such agreements which give the counterparty the right to call for an early termination.
Forward currency contracts, forward rate agreements, written options, swaps and financial futures contracts involve elements of both market and credit risk in excess of the amounts reflected on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Such risks may be mitigated by engaging in master netting arrangements.
Securities Lending: The Fund may lend its portfolio securities to banks and broker-dealers. The loans are secured by collateral at least equal to the market value of the securities loaned. Collateral pledged by each borrower is invested in a highly liquid ultra short-term bond fund and is marked to market daily, based on the previous day’s market value, such that the value of the collateral exceeds the value of the loaned securities. Loans are subject to termination at the option of the borrower or the Fund. Upon termination of the loan, the borrower will return to the Fund securities identical to the loaned securities. Should the borrower of the securities fail financially, the Fund has the right to repurchase the securities in the open market using the collateral. The Fund recognizes income, net of any rebate and securities lending agent fees, for lending its securities, and any interest on the investment of cash received as collateral. The borrower receives all interest and dividends and such
| | | | |

Notes to Financial Statements (unaudited) (continued)
payments are passed back to the lender in amounts equivalent thereto. The Fund also continues to recognize any unrealized gain (loss) in the market price of the securities loaned that may occur during the term of the loan.
REITs: The Fund invests in real estate investment trusts (“REITs”), which report information on the source of their distributions annually. Based on current and historical information, a portion of distributions received from REITs during the period is estimated to be dividend income, capital gain or return of capital and is recorded accordingly. These estimates are adjusted when the actual source of distributions is disclosed by the REITs.
Securities Transactions and Net Investment Income: Securities transactions are recorded on the trade date. Realized gains (losses) from investment and currency transactions are calculated on the identified cost basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-date. Interest income, including amortization of premium and accretion of discount on debt securities, as required, is recorded on an accrual basis. Expenses are recorded on an accrual basis, which may require the use of certain estimates by management that may differ from actual.
Net investment income or loss (other than distribution fees which are charged directly to the respective class and transfer agency fees specific to Class Q shares which are charged to that share class) and unrealized and realized gains (losses) are allocated daily to each class of shares based upon the relative proportion of adjusted net assets of each class at the beginning of the day.
Dividends and Distributions: The Fund expects to pay dividends from net investment income quarterly and distributions from net realized capital gains, if any, at least annually. Dividends and distributions to shareholders, which are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations and may differ from generally accepted accounting principles, are recorded on the ex-date. Permanent book/tax differences relating to income and gains are reclassified amongst undistributed net investment income, accumulated net realized gain (loss) and paid in capital in excess of par, as appropriate.
Taxes: For federal income tax purposes, the Fund is treated as a separate tax paying entity. It is the Fund’s policy to continue to meet the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute all of its taxable net income and capital gains, if any, to shareholders. Therefore, no federal tax provision is required. Withholding taxes on foreign dividends are recorded, net of reclaimable amounts, at the time the related income is earned.
Estimates: The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
2. Agreements
The Company has a management agreement for the Fund with Prudential Investments LLC (“PI”). Pursuant to this agreement, PI has responsibility for all investment advisory services and supervises the subadviser’s performance of such services. PI has entered into a subadvisory agreement with Jennison Associates LLC (“Jennison”). The subadvisory agreement provides that Jennison furnishes investment advisory services in connection with the management of the Series. In connection therewith, Jennison is obligated to keep certain books and records of the Series. PI pays for the services of Jennison, the cost of compensation of officers of the Series, occupancy and certain clerical and bookkeeping costs of the Series. The Series bears all other costs and expenses.
The management fee paid to PI is accrued daily and payable monthly, at an annual rate of .85% of the average daily net assets of the Fund up to and including $500 million, .80% on the next $500 million, .75% on the next $1.50 billion, .725% on the next $2.5 billion, .70% on the next $2.5 billion, .675% on the next $2.5 billion, and .65% of the Fund’s average daily net assets in excess of $10 billion. The effective management fee rate was .76% of the Fund’s average daily net assets for the six months ended April 30, 2016.
The Fund has a distribution agreement with Prudential Investment Management Services LLC (“PIMS”), which acts as the distributor of the Class A, Class B, Class C, Class Q, Class R and Class Z shares of the Fund. The Fund compensates PIMS for distributing and servicing the Fund’s Class A, Class B, Class C and Class R shares pursuant to plans of distribution (the “Class A, B, C and R Plans”), regardless of expenses actually incurred by PIMS. The distribution fees are accrued daily and paid monthly. No distribution or service fees are paid to PIMS as distributor of the Class Q and Class Z shares of the Fund.
Pursuant to the Class A, B, C and R Plans, the Fund compensates PIMS for distribution related activities at an annual rate of up to .30%, 1%, 1% and .75%, of the average daily net assets of the Class A, B, C and R shares, respectively. PIMS has contractually agreed to limit such fees to .25% and .50% of the average daily net assets of the Class A and Class R shares, respectively, through February 28, 2017.
PIMS has advised the Fund that it has received $802,374 in front-end sales charges resulting from sales of Class A shares during the six months ended April 30, 2016. From these fees, PIMS paid such sales charges to affiliated broker-dealers, which in turn paid commissions to salespersons and incurred other distribution costs.
PIMS has advised the Fund that for the six months ended April 30, 2016, it received $5,850, $ 94,707 and $58,293, in contingent deferred sales charges imposed upon redemptions by certain Class A, Class B and Class C shareholders, respectively.

3. Other Transactions with Affiliates
Prudential Mutual Fund Services LLC (“PMFS”), an affiliate of PI and an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of Prudential, serves as the Fund’s transfer agent. Transfer agent’s fees and expenses shown in the Statement of Operations include certain out-of pocket expenses paid to non-affiliates, where applicable.
PGIM, Inc., an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of Prudential, is the Fund’s securities lending agent. Net earnings from securities lending are disclosed on the Statement of Operations as “Affiliated income from securities lending, net”. For the six months ended April 30, 2016, PGIM, Inc. has been compensated approximately $60,300 for these services. Effective February 5, 2016, PGIM, Inc. is being paid no compensation for acting as securities lending agent. In addition, the securities lending agent continues to absorb the transaction costs associated with the securities lending activity. Prior to January 4, 2016, PGIM, Inc. was known as Prudential Investment Management, Inc. (“PIM”).
The Fund may enter into certain securities purchase or sale transactions under Board approved Rule 17a-7 procedures. Rule 17a-7 is an exemptive rule under the 1940 Act, that permits purchase and sale transactions among affiliated investment companies, or between an investment company and a person that is affiliated solely by reason of having a common (or affiliated) investment adviser, common directors, and/or common officers. Such transactions are subject to ratification by the Board.
The Fund invests in the Prudential Core Ultra Short Bond Fund, (formerly known as Prudential Core Taxable Money Market Fund), (the “Core Fund”), a portfolio of the Prudential Investment Portfolios 2, registered under the 1940 Act and managed by PI. Earnings from the Core Fund are disclosed on the Statement of Operations as “Affiliated dividend income”.
4. Portfolio Securities
The cost of purchases and proceeds from sales of investment securities, other than short-term investments and U.S. Government securities, for the six months ended April 30, 2016, were $1,064,562,176 and $1,749,920,602, respectively.

7. Borrowings
The Fund, along with other affiliated registered investment companies (the “Funds”), is a party to a Syndicated Credit Agreement (“SCA”) with a group of banks. The purpose of the SCA is to provide an alternative source of temporary funding for capital share redemptions. The SCA provides for a commitment of $900 million for the period October 8, 2015 through October 6, 2016. The Funds pay an annualized commitment fee of .11% of the unused portion of the SCA. Prior to October 8, 2015, the Funds had another SCA that provided a commitment of $900 million and the Funds paid an annualized commitment fee .075% of the unused portion of the SCA. Interest on any borrowings under the SCA is paid at contracted market rates. Fund’s portion of the commitment fee for the unused amount is accrued daily and paid quarterly.
The Fund utilized the SCA during the six months ended April 30, 2016. The average daily balance for the 7 days that the Fund had loans outstanding during the period was approximately $29,825,143, borrowed at a weighted average interest rate of 1.66%. The maximum loan outstanding amount during the period was $61,415,000. At April 30, 2016, the Fund did not have an outstanding loan amount.
8. New Accounting Pronouncements
In May 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2015-07 regarding “Disclosures for Investments in Certain Entities That Calculate Net Asset Value
per Share”. The amendments in this update are effective for the Fund for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within those fiscal years. ASU No. 2015-07 will eliminate the requirement to categorize investments in the fair value hierarchy if their fair value is measured at net asset value (“NAV”) per share (or its equivalent) using the practical expedient in the FASB’s fair value measurement guidance. Management has evaluated the implications of ASU No. 2015-07 and has determined that there is no impact on the financial statement disclosures.
In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-01 regarding “Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities”. The new guidance is intended to enhance the reporting model for financial instruments to provide users of financial statements with more decision-useful information and addresses certain aspects of the recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure of financial instruments. The new standard affects all entities that hold financial assets or owe financial liabilities. The new guidance is effective for public companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. At this time, management is evaluating the implications of ASU No. 2016-01 and its impact on the financial statements and disclosures has not yet been determined.

Letter from the President

Dear Shareholder:
We hope you find the semiannual report for the Prudential QMA Mid-Cap Value Fund informative and useful. The report covers performance for the six-month period that ended April 30, 2016.
Since market conditions change over time, we believe it is important to maintain a diversified portfolio of funds consistent with your tolerance for risk, time horizon, and financial goals.
Your financial advisor can help you create a diversified investment plan that may include funds covering all the basic asset classes and that reflects your personal investor profile and risk tolerance. Keep in mind, however, that diversification and asset allocation strategies do not assure a profit or protect against loss in declining markets.
Prudential Investments® is dedicated to helping you solve your toughest investment challenges—whether it’s capital growth, reliable income, or protection from market volatility and other risks. We offer the expertise of Prudential Financial’s affiliated asset managers that strive to be leaders in a broad range of funds to help you stay on course to the future you envision. They also manage money for major corporations and pension funds around the world, which means you benefit from the same expertise, innovation, and attention to risk demanded by today’s most sophisticated investors.
Thank you for choosing the Prudential Investments family of funds.
Sincerely,

The cumulative total returns for the Index measured from the month-end closest to the inception date for Class Q shares through 4/30/16 are 73.89% and 0.81% for Class R shares. The average annual total returns for the Index measured from the month-end closest to the inception date for Class Q shares through 3/31/16 are 11.08% and –0.20% for Class R shares.
Lipper Mid-Cap Value Funds Average—The Lipper Mid-Cap Value Funds Average (Lipper Average) is based on the average return of all funds in the Lipper Mid-Cap Value Funds category for the periods noted. Funds in the Lipper Average, by portfolio practice, invest at least 75% of their equity assets in companies with market capitalizations (on a three-year weighted basis) less than 300% of the dollar-weighted median market capitalization of the middle 1,000 securities of the S&P SuperComposite 1500 Index. Mid-cap value funds typically have a below-average price-to-earnings ratio, price-to-book ratio, and three-year sales-per-share growth value compared with the companies in the S&P MidCap 400 Index. The cumulative total returns for the Lipper Average measured from the month-end closest to the inception date for Class Q shares through 4/30/16 are 62.42% and –0.65% for Class R shares. The average annual total returns for the Lipper Average measured from the month-end closest to the inception date for Class Q shares through 3/31/16 are 9.48% and –1.65% for Class R shares.
Investors cannot invest directly in an index or average. The returns for the Indexes would be lower if they included the effects of sales charges, operating expenses of a mutual fund, or taxes. Returns for the Lipper Average reflect the deduction of operating expenses, but not sales charges or taxes. The Since Inception returns for the Indexes and the Lipper Average are measured from the closest month-end to the inception date for the indicated share class.

Fees and Expenses (unaudited)
As a shareholder of the Fund, you incur two types of costs: (1) transaction costs, including sales charges (loads) on purchase payments and redemptions, as applicable, and (2) ongoing costs, including management fees, distribution and/or service (12b-1) fees, and other Fund expenses, as applicable. This example is intended to help you understand your ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in the Fund and to compare these costs with the ongoing costs of investing in other mutual funds.
The example is based on an investment of $1,000 invested on November 1, 2015, at the beginning of the period, and held through the six-month period ended April 30, 2016. The example is for illustrative purposes only; you should consult the Prospectus for information on initial and subsequent minimum investment requirements.
Actual Expenses
The first line for each share class in the table on the following page provides information about actual account values and actual expenses. You may use the information on this line, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period. Simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value ÷ $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number on the first line under the heading “Expenses Paid During the Six-Month Period” to estimate the expenses you paid on your account during this period.
Hypothetical Example for Comparison Purposes
The second line for each share class in the table on the following page provides information about hypothetical account values and hypothetical expenses based on the Fund’s actual expense ratio and an assumed rate of return of 5% per year before expenses, which is not the Fund’s actual return. The hypothetical account values and expenses may not be used to estimate the actual ending account balance or expenses you paid for the period. You may use this information to compare the ongoing costs of investing in the Fund and other funds. To do so, compare this 5% hypothetical example with the 5% hypothetical examples that appear in the shareholder reports of the other funds.
The Fund’s transfer agent may charge additional fees to holders of certain accounts that are not included in the expenses shown in the table on the following page. These fees apply to individual retirement accounts (IRAs) and Section 403(b) accounts. As of the close of the six-month period covered by the table, IRA fees included an annual maintenance fee of $15 per account (subject to a maximum annual maintenance fee of $25 for all accounts held by the same shareholder). Section 403(b) accounts are charged an annual $25 fiduciary maintenance fee. Some of the fees may vary in amount, or may be waived, based on your total account balance or the number of Prudential Investments funds, including the Fund, that you own. You should consider the additional fees that were charged to your

Fees and Expenses (continued)
Fund account over the six-month period when you estimate the total ongoing expenses paid over the period and the impact of these fees on your ending account value, as these additional expenses are not reflected in the information provided in the expense table. Additional fees have the effect of reducing investment returns.
Please note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight your ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs such as sales charges (loads). Therefore, the second line for each share class in the table is useful in comparing ongoing costs only and will not help you determine the relative total costs of owning different funds. In addition, if these transactional costs were included, your costs would have been higher.

Prudential QMA Mid-Cap Value Fund | | | 25 | |
Notes to Financial Statements (unaudited)
Prudential Investment Portfolios, Inc. 10 (the “Company”) is an open-end management investment company, registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (“1940 Act”). The Company was organized on March 5, 1997, as a Maryland Corporation. The Company operates as a series company. At April 30, 2016, the Company consisted of two diversified investment portfolios (each a “Fund” and collectively the “Funds”). The information presented in these financial statements pertains to Prudential QMA Mid-Cap Value Fund (the “Fund” formerly, Prudential Mid-Cap Value Fund).
The investment objective of the Fund is capital growth.
Note 1. Accounting Policies
The Fund follows investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standard Codification Topic 946 Financial Services—Investment Companies. The following accounting policies conform to U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. The Fund consistently follows such policies in the preparation of its financial statements.
Securities Valuation: The Fund holds securities and other assets that are fair valued at the close of each day (generally, 4:00 PM Eastern time) the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) is open for trading. Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. The Board of Directors (the “Board”) has adopted Valuation Procedures for security valuation under which fair valuation responsibilities have been delegated to Prudential Investments LLC (“PI” or “Manager”). Under the current Valuation Procedures, the established Valuation Committee is responsible for supervising the valuation of portfolio securities and other assets. The Valuation Procedures permit the Fund to utilize independent pricing vendor services, quotations from market makers, and alternative valuation methods when market quotations are either not readily available or not deemed representative of fair value. A record of the Valuation Committee’s actions is subject to the Board’s review, approval, and ratification at its next regularly-scheduled quarterly meeting.
Various inputs determine how the Fund’s investments are valued, all of which are categorized according to the three broad levels (Level 1, 2, or 3) detailed in the table following the Portfolio of Investments.
Common and preferred stocks, exchange-traded funds, and derivative instruments such as futures or options that are traded on a national securities exchange are valued at the last sale price as of the close of trading on the applicable exchange where the security
principally trades. Securities traded via NASDAQ are valued at the NASDAQ official closing price. To the extent these securities are valued at the last sale price or NASDAQ official closing price, they are classified as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy.
In the event that no sale or official closing price on valuation date exists, these securities are generally valued at the mean between the last reported bid and ask prices, or at the last bid price in the absence of an ask price. These securities are classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.
Common and preferred stocks traded on foreign securities exchanges are valued using pricing vendor services that provide model prices derived using adjustment factors based on information such as local closing price, relevant general and sector indices, currency fluctuations, depositary receipts, and futures, as applicable. Securities valued using such model prices are classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy. The models generate an evaluated adjustment factor for each security, which can be applied to the local closing price to adjust it for post closing market movements. Utilizing that evaluated adjustment factor, the vendor provides an evaluated price to the extent that the valuation meets the established confidence level for each security. Such confidence level is a measure of the probability of a relationship between a given equity security and the factors used in the models. Such securities are valued using model prices to the extent that the valuation meets the established confidence level for each security. If the confidence level is not met or the vendor does not provide an evaluated price, securities are valued in accordance with exchange-traded common and preferred stocks discussed above.
Participatory notes (P-notes) are generally valued based upon the value of a related underlying security that trades actively in the market and are classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.
Investments in open-end, non-exchange-traded mutual funds are valued at their net asset values as of the close of the NYSE on the date of valuation. These securities are classified as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy since they may be purchased or sold at their net asset values on the date of valuation.
Fixed income securities traded in the OTC market are generally valued at prices provided by approved independent pricing vendors. The pricing vendors provide these prices after evaluating observable inputs including, but not limited to yield curves, yield spreads, credit ratings, deal terms, tranche level attributes, default rates, cash flows, prepayment speeds, broker/dealer quotations, and reported trades. Securities valued using such vendor prices are classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.
Bank loans traded in the OTC market are generally valued at prices provided by approved independent pricing vendors. The pricing vendors utilize broker/dealer quotations and provide prices based on the average of such quotations. Bank loans valued using such vendor prices are generally classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.
| | | | |
Prudential QMA Mid-Cap Value Fund | | | 27 | |
Notes to Financial Statements (unaudited) (continued)
OTC derivative instruments are generally valued using pricing vendor services, which derive the valuation based on inputs such as underlying asset prices, indices, spreads, interest rates, and exchange rates. These instruments are categorized as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.
Centrally cleared swaps listed or traded on a multilateral or trade facility platform, such as a registered exchange, are generally valued at the daily settlement price determined by the respective exchange. These securities are classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy, as the daily settlement price is not public.
Securities and other assets that cannot be priced according to the methods described above are valued based on pricing methodologies approved by the Board. In the event that unobservable inputs are used when determining such valuations, the securities will be classified as Level 3 in the fair value hierarchy.
When determining the fair value of securities, some of the factors influencing the valuation include: the nature of any restrictions on disposition of the securities; assessment of the general liquidity of the securities; the issuer’s financial condition and the markets in which it does business; the cost of the investment; the size of the holding and the capitalization of the issuer; the prices of any recent transactions or bids/offers for such securities or any comparable securities; any available analyst media or other reports or information deemed reliable by the investment adviser regarding the issuer or the markets or industry in which it operates. Using fair value to price securities may result in a value that is different from a security’s most recent closing price and from the price used by other mutual funds to calculate their net asset values.
Foreign Currency Translation: The books and records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Foreign currency amounts are translated into U.S. dollars on the following basis:
(i) market value of investment securities, other assets and liabilities—at the current rates of exchange;
(ii) purchases and sales of investment securities, income and expenses—at the rates of exchange prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions.
Although the net assets of the Fund are presented at the foreign exchange rates and market values at the close of the period, the Fund does not generally isolate that portion of the results of operations arising as a result of changes in the foreign exchange rates from the fluctuations arising from changes in the market prices of long-term portfolio securities held at the end of the period. Similarly, the Fund does not isolate the effect of changes in foreign exchange rates from the fluctuations arising from changes in the market prices of
long-term portfolio securities sold during the period. Accordingly, holding period realized foreign currency gains (losses) are included in the reported net realized gains (losses) on investment transactions. Notwithstanding the above, the Fund does isolate the effect of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates when determining the gain (loss) upon the sale or maturity of foreign currency denominated debt obligations; such amounts are included in net realized gains (losses) on foreign currency transactions.
Net realized gains (losses) on foreign currency transactions represent net foreign exchange gains (losses) from holdings of foreign currencies, forward currency contracts, disposition of foreign currencies, currency gains (losses) realized between the trade and settlement dates on securities transactions, and the difference between the amounts of interest, dividends and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the Fund’s books and the U.S. dollar equivalent amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized currency gains (losses) from valuing foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities (other than investments) at period end exchange rates are reflected as a component of net unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on foreign currencies.
Concentration of Risk: Foreign security and currency transactions may involve certain considerations and risks not typically associated with those of U.S. companies as a result of, among other factors, the possibility of political or economic instability or the level of governmental supervision and regulation of foreign securities markets.
Securities Lending: The Fund may lend their portfolio securities to banks and broker-dealers. The loans are secured by collateral at least equal to the market value of the securities loaned. Collateral pledged by each borrower is invested in a highly liquid ultra short-term bond fund and is marked to market daily, based on the previous day’s market value, such that the value of the collateral exceeds the value of the loaned securities. Loans are subject to termination at the option of the borrower or the Fund. Upon termination of the loan, the borrower will return to the Fund securities identical to the loaned securities. Should the borrower of the securities fail financially, the Fund has the right to repurchase the securities in the open market using the collateral. The Fund recognizes income, net of any rebate and securities lending agent fees, for lending its securities in the form of fees or interest on the investment of any cash received as collateral. The borrower receives all interest and dividends and such payments are passed back to the lender in amounts equivalent thereto. The Fund also continues to recognize any unrealized gain (loss) in the market price of the securities loaned that may occur during the term of the loan.
Master Netting Arrangements: The Fund is subject to various Master Agreements, or netting arrangements, with select counterparties. These are agreements which a subadviser may have negotiated and entered into on behalf of the Fund. A master netting arrangement between the Fund and the counterparty permits the Fund to offset amounts payable by the Fund to the same counterparty against amounts to be received; and by the receipt of collateral from the counterparty by the Fund to cover the Fund’s exposure to the counterparty. However, there is no assurance that such mitigating factors are easily enforceable. In addition to master netting arrangements, the right to set-off exists when all
| | | | |
Prudential QMA Mid-Cap Value Fund | | | 29 | |
Notes to Financial Statements (unaudited) (continued)
the conditions are met such that each of the parties owes the other determinable amounts, the reporting party has the right to set-off the amount owed with the amount owed by the other party, the reporting party intends to set-off and the right of set-off is enforceable by law. During the reporting period, there was no intention to settle on a net basis and all amounts are presented on a gross basis on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.
Securities Transactions and Net Investment Income: Securities transactions are recorded on the trade date. Realized gains (losses) from investment and currency transactions on sales of portfolio securities are calculated on the identified cost basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-date and interest income, including amortization of premium and accretion of discount on debt securities, as required, is recorded on the accrual basis. Expenses are recorded on an accrual basis, which may require the use of certain estimates by management that may differ from actual.
The Fund invests in real estate investment trusts, (“REITs”), which report information on the source of their distributions annually. Based on current and historical information, a portion of distributions received from REITs during the period is estimated to be dividend income, capital gain or return of capital and recorded accordingly. These estimates are adjusted periodically when the actual source of distributions is disclosed by the REITs.
Net investment income or loss (other than distribution fees, which are charged directly to the respective class and transfer agency fees specific to Class Q shares which are charged to that share class) and unrealized and realized gains (losses) are allocated daily to each class of shares based upon the relative proportion of adjusted net assets of each class at the beginning of the day.
Dividends and Distributions: The Fund expects to pay dividends from net investment income and distributions from net realized capital gains, if any, at least annually. Dividends and distributions to shareholders, which are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations and may differ from generally accepted accounting principles, are recorded on the ex-date. Permanent book/tax differences relating to income and gains are reclassified amongst undistributed net investment income (loss) accumulated net realized gain (loss) and paid-in capital in excess of par, as appropriate.
Taxes: For federal income tax purposes, the Fund is treated as a separate taxpaying entity. It is the Fund’s policy to continue to meet the requirements of the Internal Revenue Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute all of its taxable net investment income and capital gains, if any, to its shareholders. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required. Withholding taxes on foreign dividends are recorded, net of reclaimable amounts, at the time the related income is earned.
Estimates: The preparation of the financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Note 2. Agreements
The Fund has a management agreement with Pl. Pursuant to this agreement, PI has responsibility for all investment advisory services and supervises the subadviser’s performance of such services. PI has entered into a subadvisory agreement with Quantitative Management Associates LLC (“QMA”). The subadvisory agreement provides that QMA will furnish investment advisory services in connection with the management of the Fund. In connection therewith, QMA is obligated to keep certain books and records of the Fund. PI pays for the services of QMA, the cost of compensation of officers of the Fund, occupancy and certain clerical and bookkeeping costs of the Fund. The Fund bears all other costs and expenses.
The advisory fee paid to PI is accrued daily and payable monthly at an annual rate of .825% of the average daily net assets of the Fund up to $1 billion and .80% of the average daily net assets in excess of $1 billion. The effective management fee rate before any waivers and/or expense reimbursement was .83% for the six months ended April 30, 2016. The effective management fee rate, net of waivers and/or expense reimbursement, was .74%.
PI has contractually agreed through February 28, 2017 to limit net annual Fund operating expenses (exclusive of distribution and service (12b-1) fees, transfer agency fees, taxes, interest and brokerage commissions, and extraordinary expenses) of each class of shares to .80% of the Fund’s average daily net assets.
The Fund has a distribution agreement with Prudential Investment Management Services LLC (“PIMS”), which acts as the distributor of the Class A, Class B, Class C, Class Q, Class R and Class Z shares of the Fund. The Fund compensates PIMS for distributing and servicing the Fund’s Class A, Class B, Class C and Class R shares pursuant to plans of distribution (the “Class A, B, C and R Plans”), regardless of expenses actually incurred by PIMS. The distribution fees are accrued daily and payable monthly. No distribution or service fees are paid to PIMS as distributor of the Class Q and Class Z shares of the Fund. Pursuant to the Class A, B, C and R Plans, the Fund compensates PIMS for distribution related activities at an annual rate of up to .30%, 1%, 1% and .75%, of the average daily net assets of the Class A, B, C and R shares, respectively. PIMS contractually agreed to limit such fees to .25% and .50% of the average daily net assets of the Class A and Class R shares, respectively through February 28, 2017.
PIMS has advised the Fund that it has received $183,600 in front-end sales charges resulting from sales of Class A shares during the six months ended April 30, 2016. From these fees, PIMS paid such sales charges to affiliated broker-dealers, which in turn paid commissions to salespersons and incurred other distribution costs.
| | | | |
Prudential QMA Mid-Cap Value Fund | | | 31 | |
Notes to Financial Statements (unaudited) (continued)
PIMS has advised the Fund that for the six months ended April 30, 2016, it received $11,590, $4,401 and $4,047, in contingent deferred sales charges imposed upon redemptions by certain Class A, Class B and Class C shareholders, respectively.
PI, QMA and PIMS are indirect, wholly-owned subsidiaries of Prudential Financial,
Inc. (“Prudential”).
Note 3. Other Transactions with Affiliates
Prudential Mutual Fund Services LLC (“PMFS”), an affiliate of PI and an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of Prudential, serves as the Fund’s transfer agent. The transfer agent’s fees and expenses shown in the Statement of Operations also include certain out-of pocket expenses paid to non-affiliates, where applicable.
The Fund may enter into certain securities purchase or sale transactions under Board approved Rule 17a-7 procedures. Rule 17a-7 is an exemptive rule under the 1940 Act, that permits purchase and sale transactions among affiliated investment companies, or between an investment company and a person that is affiliated solely by reason of having a common (or affiliated) investment adviser, common directors, and/or common officers. Such transactions are subject to ratification by the Board.
The Fund invests in the Prudential Core Ultra Short Bond Fund, (formerly known as Prudential Core Taxable Money Market Fund), (the “Core Fund”), a portfolio of Prudential Investment Portfolios 2, registered under the 1940 Act and managed by PI. Earnings from the Core Fund are disclosed on the Statement of Operations as “Affiliated dividend income”.
PGIM, Inc., an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of Prudential, is the Fund’s securities lending agent. Net earnings from securities lending are disclosed on the Statement of Operations as “Affiliated income from securities lending, net”. For the six months ended April 30, 2016, PGIM, Inc. has been compensated approximately $16,200 for these services. Effective February 5, 2016, PGIM, Inc. is being paid no compensation for acting as the securities lending agent. In addition, the securities lending agent continues to absorb the transaction costs associated with the securities lending activity. Prior to January 4, 2016, PGIM, Inc. was known as Prudential Investment Management, Inc. (“PIM”).
Note 4. Portfolio Securities
The cost of purchases and proceeds from sales of portfolio securities, other than short-term investments, for the six months ended April 30, 2016, were $264,038,139 and $234,695,956, respectively.
Note 5. Tax Information
The United States federal income tax basis of the Fund’s investments and the net unrealized appreciation as of April 30, 2016 were as follows:
| | | | |
Tax Basis | | $ | 865,974,135 | |
| | | | |
Appreciation | | | 59,520,212 | |
Depreciation | | | (53,804,430 | ) |
| | | | |
Net Unrealized Appreciation | | $ | 5,715,782 | |
| | | | |
The book basis may differ from tax basis due to certain tax related adjustments.
Management has analyzed the Fund’s tax positions taken on federal, state and local income tax returns for all open tax years and has concluded that no provision for income tax is required in the Fund’s financial statements for the current reporting period. The Fund’s federal, state and local income and federal excise tax returns for tax years for which the applicable statutes of limitations have not expired are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and state departments of revenue.
Note 6. Capital
The Fund offers Class A, Class B, Class C, Class Q, Class R and Class Z shares. Class A shares are sold with a front-end sales charge of up to 5.50%. Purchases of $1 million or more are subject to a contingent deferred sales charge (“CDSC”) if shares are redeemed within 12 months of their purchase. Class B shares are sold with a CDSC which declines from 5% to zero depending upon the period of time the shares are held. Class B shares will automatically convert to Class A shares approximately seven years after purchase. Class B shares are closed to new purchases. Class C shares are sold with a CDSC of 1% on shares redeemed within the first 12 months of purchase. Class Q, Class R and Class Z shares are not subject to any sales or redemption charge and are offered exclusively for sale to a limited group of investors.
Under certain circumstances, an exchange may be made from specified share classes of the Fund to one or more other share classes of the Fund as presented in the table of transactions in shares of capital.
The authorized capital stock of the Company is 5.5 billion shares, with a par value of $.001 per share. Of the Company’s authorized capital stock, 375 million authorized shares have been allocated to the Fund and divided into six classes, designated Class A, Class B, Class C, Class Q, Class R and Class Z capital stock, each of which consists of 150 million, 5 million, 30 million, 40 million, 75 million, and 75 million authorized shares, respectively.

Note 7. Borrowings
The Fund, along with other affiliated registered investment companies (the “Funds”), is a party to a Syndicated Credit Agreement (“SCA”) with a group of banks. The purpose of the SCA is to provide an alternative source of temporary funding for capital share redemptions. The SCA provides for a commitment of $900 million for the period October 8, 2015 through October 6, 2016. The Funds pay an annualized commitment fee of .11% of the unused portion of the SCA. Prior to October 8, 2015, the Funds had another SCA that provided a commitment of $900 million and the Funds paid an annualized commitment fee of .075% of the unused portion of the SCA. Interest on any borrowings under the SCA is paid at contracted market rates. The Fund’s portion of the commitment fee for the unused amount is accrued daily and paid quarterly.
The Fund utilized the SCA during the six months ended April 30, 2016. The average daily balance for the 2 days that the Fund had loans outstanding during the period was $243,000, borrowed at a weighted average interest rate of 1.61%. The maximum loan outstanding amount during the period was $368,000. At April 30, 2016, the Fund did not have an outstanding loan amount.
Note 8. New Accounting Pronouncements
In May 2015, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2015-07 regarding “Disclosures for Investments in Certain Entities That Calculate Net Asset Value per Share”. The amendments in this update are effective for the Fund for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2015, and interim periods within those fiscal years. ASU No. 2015-07 will eliminate the requirement to categorize investments in the fair value hierarchy if their fair value is measured at net asset value (“NAV”) per share (or its equivalent) using the practical expedient in the FASB’s fair value measurement guidance. Management has evaluated the implications of ASU No. 2015-07 and has determined that there is no impact on the financial statement disclosures.
In January 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-01 regarding “Recognition and Measurement of Financial Assets and Financial Liabilities”. The new guidance is intended to enhance the reporting model for financial instruments to provide users of financial statements with more decision-useful information and addresses certain aspects of the recognition, measurement, presentation, and disclosure of financial instruments. The new standard affects all entities that hold financial assets or owe financial liabilities. The new guidance is effective for public companies for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2017, including interim periods within those fiscal years. At this time, management is evaluating the implications of ASU No. 2016-01 and its impact on the financial statements and disclosures has not yet been determined.
