Chairman’s Letter
Dear Shareholder,
During the six months ended May 31, 2006, the Federal Reserve Board’s inflation-fighting campaign pushed short-term interest rates higher. Longer-term rates also increased, though at a more moderate pace.
Vanguard New Jersey Long-Term Tax-Exempt Fund returned 1.5%, beating the result of the benchmark index and slightly trailing the average return of competing New Jersey municipal bond funds. The income portion of the fund’s return more than offset its modest decline in share price. The fund’s 4.04% yield for Investor Shares at the end of May represented a slight increase versus six months ago. For investors in the highest income tax bracket, the taxable-equivalent yield was 6.85%.
The New Jersey Tax-Exempt Money Market Fund also posted a 1.5% result, which surpassed the average return of its peers. The fund’s yield increased to 3.26%; the taxable equivalent would be 5.53% for investors in the highest income tax bracket. The fund maintained a net asset value of $1 per share, as is expected but not guaranteed.
Please note: Although the funds’ income distributions are expected to be exempt from federal and New Jersey state income taxes, a portion of these distributions may be subject to the alternative minimum tax.

Bonds treaded water as rates continued to rise
Bond market returns were flat during the past six months, as rising interest rates put pressure on prices. The Federal Reserve Board raised its target for the federal funds rate from 4.00% to 5.00% in four separate actions as part of its efforts to rein in inflationary pressures. Yields generally moved higher across the maturity spectrum, a change from the pattern in prior months when yields rose at the shorter end but fell at the longer end.
In general, short-term and municipal securities outperformed long-term taxable bonds. High-yield bonds, which are less sensitive to changes in interest rates, turned in impressive relative results.
Stocks gained ground, then stumbled late in the period
The U.S. stock market advanced through much of the fiscal half-year, with some indexes approaching a five-year high in early May. Despite ongoing concerns about high energy costs and the possibility of inflation, investors generally remained positive about the economy. In mid-May, however, worries over whether the Fed would continue to raise interest rates gave some investors pause, leading to a decline in the major indexes.
In the U.S. market, small-capitalization stocks once again outperformed their large-cap counterparts, a persistent trend over the past few years. Returns of international stocks, aided by a weak dollar, continued to surpass those of

Your fund remained consistent in a challenging rate environment
Over the past six months, the relatively attractive yields available for municipal bonds resulted in increased demand for these securities. This increase, coupled with a decrease in the supply of municipal bonds, placed a slight upward pressure on municipal bond prices and a slight downward pressure on the resultant yields, particularly among long-term bonds.
While yields at the longest end of the maturity spectrum generally remained stable, the Fed’s rate-tightening actions helped to push municipal bond yields higher for shorter-term issues. This “flattening” of the municipal bond yield curve presented a challenging investment environment for your fund’s advisor, the Vanguard Fixed Income Group.
Against this backdrop, the advisor steered the New Jersey Long-Term Tax-Exempt Fund to a 1.5% return, reflecting an income return that more than offset a slight decline in the fund’s net asset value (NAV). The fund outpaced the result of its benchmark index, but fell just short of the average return of competing New Jersey municipal debt funds. During the past six months, the advisor kept the fund’s duration, a measure of interest rate sensitivity, near the short end of its typical range—a strategy that offered some protection from the negative impact of rising interest rates.

The New Jersey Tax-Exempt Money Market Fund benefited from the increase in short-term rates. Its short average maturity enabled it to quickly translate rising rates into higher income. The fund’s return of 1.5% was higher than the average return for its peers, largely because of its lower expense ratio.
Maintaining low investment costs is always important, but can be especially important during periods of modest total returns—which are not atypical in the fixed income market. The less you pay in expenses, the greater is your portion of the portfolio’s total return. In addition, Vanguard’s low expenses provide the advisor with flexibility that other portfolio managers don’t have: The advisor doesn’t have to take extra risks to deliver competitive returns.
Your muni fund’s dual role: Providing income and stability
If you own shares of an equity fund, you probably enjoyed the fund’s strong performance in the first four months of calendar-year 2006. From January through April, the broad U.S. stock market returned more than 6.5%. Nearly half of that return was ceded, however, during a disappointing May. This abrupt turnabout reminds us of a fundamental principle in investing: balance.
A portfolio balanced among stock, bond, and money market funds, in levels appropriate to your goals, risk tolerance, and time horizon, can provide stability in a choppy market. As a shareholder in a New Jersey Tax-Exempt Fund, you’re aware of your fund’s ability to generate income that is free of New Jersey and federal taxes. But don’t overlook the role it can play as a stabilizing counterweight to the more volatile segments of your portfolio.
Thank you for entrusting your assets to Vanguard.
Sincerely,
John J. Brennan
Chairman and Chief Executive Officer

Advisor’s Report
During the six months ended May 31, 2006, Vanguard New Jersey Long-Term Tax-Exempt Fund returned 1.5%, trailing the average result of its peers. The Vanguard New Jersey Tax-Exempt Money Market Fund also returned 1.5%, which outpaced its peer-group average.
The investment environment
Over the fiscal half-year, the U.S. economy showed signs of being squarely in expansion mode. At the end of May, the Commerce Department estimated that real gross domestic product had expanded by 3.6% for the 12 months ended March 31, a pace slightly above the economy’s potential long-term growth rate. Much of the economy’s growth was spurred by strong exports, construction, and business investment spending. Personal consumption also expanded briskly, buoyed by rising incomes and improved job prospects. During the funds’ fiscal half-year ended May 31, U.S. employment levels also improved. The nation’s unemployment rate stood at 4.6% on May 31—the lowest level in five years—and anecdotal reports pointed to shortages of skilled workers in select industries.
At the same time, inflation remained a concern. Rising energy prices contributed to increased rates of consumer and wholesale inflation in the first half of 2006. Through May, the consumer price index (CPI), which tracks prices at the consumer

level, was 4.2% higher than its year-ago level. Increases in the core CPI, which excludes volatile food and energy prices, have also accelerated recently.
The Federal Reserve Board continued its “measured” pace of tightening, raising the target for the federal funds rate four times during the six months, to 5.00%. The Fed has noted that long-run inflation expectations, as implied by the difference between nominal and inflation-adjusted interest rates, remain contained, but recent economic reports have prompted some concern. The financial markets anticipated that the Fed would raise the federal funds rate to 5.25% at its June 28–29 meeting.
Municipal bonds outperformed Treasuries
In the U.S. Treasury market, yields rose by similar amounts across the maturity spectrum. Increases during the six months ranged from 52 basis points (0.52 percentage point) for the 30-year note to 63 basis points for the 10-year note. Treasury yields also rose over the last 12 months, but the increases were much more pronounced among shorter issues than longer ones.
For municipal bonds, yields increased over the last six months for all but the longest-dated issues, though increases were generally more modest than those of Treasury yields—a relationship that also characterized the rate changes in the Treasury and municipal money markets. The pronounced increase in short-term municipal yields created a relatively flat municipal yield curve, with only 94 basis points separating the yield of the 30-year bond (4.53%) from that of the 2-year bond (3.59%) as of May 31.
For the fiscal half-year, new tax-exempt issuance declined by 17% nationwide, compared with year-ago levels. With the exception of California, in fact, all states issued lower volumes of tax-exempt securities. Much of the decrease was attributable to a substantial slowdown in bond “refunding” activity. The rise in interest rates meant that many state and local governments could no longer issue new, lower-coupon bonds and use the proceeds to offset their existing, higher-yield obligations.
At the same time, the demand for municipal bonds increased. The municipal bond market’s recent attractiveness relative to Treasuries drew institutional investors such as banks and insurance firms, as well as investors from outside the United States. These supply-and-demand dynamics supported bond prices (thus limiting yield increases), which helped municipal bonds to outperform their taxable brethren.
Management of the funds
The rising interest rate environment of the past six months had varying effects on the Vanguard New Jersey Tax-Exempt Funds. At the shortest end of the spectrum, we maintained a short average maturity in the Tax-Exempt Money Market Fund, which allowed us to accelerate the reinvestment of maturing issues in new, higher-yielding

securities. The fund returned 1.5% during its fiscal half-year, besting the return of its peer-group average.
The New Jersey Long-Term Tax-Exempt Fund also returned 1.5%, as a modest decline in the fund’s share price was more than offset by its income return. During the fund’s fiscal half-year, we kept the fund’s average duration at the short end of its typical range, a strategy that afforded some protection from rising interest rates. A decline in bond issuance also provided some support for tax-exempt securities. During the past six months, the state of New Jersey and its municipalities issued $6.7 billion in new securities, a 30.6% drop from a year ago.
Expense ratios are critical in a low-yield environment
Shareholder returns depend not only on portfolio management decisions but also on investment costs. The Vanguard New Jersey Tax-Exempt Funds’ low expense ratios are important in any environment, but especially during periods of relatively low yields. Our cost advantage enables us to generate highly competitive total returns while keeping our focus on higher-quality investments. Over time, this disciplined, conservative approach has generated strong returns, while also reaffirming that we will not take needless risks with your investment.

New Jersey Tax-Exempt Money Market Fund
Notes to Financial Statements
Vanguard New Jersey Tax-Exempt Money Market Fund is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as an open-end investment company, or mutual fund. The fund invests in debt instruments of municipal issuers whose ability to meet their obligations may be affected by economic and political developments in the state of New Jersey.
A. The following significant accounting policies conform to generally accepted accounting principles for U.S. mutual funds. The fund consistently follows such policies in preparing its financial statements
1. Security Valuation: Securities are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value.
2. Federal Income Taxes: The fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company and distribute all of its income. Accordingly, no provision for federal income taxes is required in the financial statements.
3. Distributions: Distributions from net investment income are declared daily and paid on the first business day of the following month.
4. Other: Interest income is accrued daily. Premiums and discounts on debt securities purchased are amortized and accreted, respectively, to interest income over the lives of the respective securities. Security transactions are accounted for on the date securities are bought or sold. Costs used to determine realized gains (losses) on the sale of investment securities are those of the specific securities sold.
B. The Vanguard Group furnishes at cost investment advisory, corporate management, administrative, marketing, and distribution services. The costs of such services are allocated to the fund under methods approved by the board of trustees. The fund has committed to provide up to 0.40% of its assets in capital contributions to Vanguard. At May 31, 2006, the fund had contributed capital of $279,000 to Vanguard (included in Other Assets), representing 0.01% of the fund’s net assets and 0.28% of Vanguard’s capitalization. The fund’s trustees and officers are also directors and officers of Vanguard.

All of the returns in this report represent past performance, which is not a guarantee of future results that may be achieved by the fund. (Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data cited. For performance data current to the most recent month-end, visit our website at www.vanguard.com.) Note, too, that both investment returns and principal value can fluctuate widely, so an investor’s shares, when sold, could be worth more or less than their original cost.

New Jersey Long-Term Tax-Exempt Fund
Notes to Financial Statements
Vanguard New Jersey Long-Term Tax-Exempt Fund is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940 as an open-end investment company, or mutual fund. The fund invests in debt instruments of municipal issuers whose ability to meet their obligations may be affected by economic and political developments in the state of New Jersey. The fund offers two classes of shares, Investor Shares and Admiral Shares. Investor Shares are available to any investor who meets the fund’s minimum purchase requirements. Admiral Shares are designed for investors who meet certain administrative, servicing, tenure, and account-size criteria.
A. The following significant accounting policies conform to generally accepted accounting principles for U.S. mutual funds. The fund consistently follows such policies in preparing its financial statements.
1. Security Valuation: Bonds, and temporary cash investments acquired over 60 days to maturity, are valued using the latest bid prices or using valuations based on a matrix system (which considers such factors as security prices, yields, maturities, and ratings), both as furnished by independent pricing services. Other temporary cash investments are valued at amortized cost, which approximates market value. Securities for which market quotations are not readily available, or whose values have been materially affected by events occurring before the fund’s pricing time but after the close of the securities’ primary markets, are valued by methods deemed by the board of trustees to represent fair value.
2. Futures Contracts: The fund may use Municipal Bond Index, U.S. Treasury Bond, and U.S.
Treasury Note futures contracts, with the objectives of enhancing returns, managing interest rate risk, maintaining liquidity, diversifying credit risk, and minimizing transaction costs. The fund may purchase or sell futures contracts instead of bonds to take advantage of pricing differentials between the futures contracts and the underlying bonds. The fund may also seek to take advantage of price differences among bond market sectors by simultaneously buying futures (or bonds) of one market sector and selling futures (or bonds) of another sector. Futures contracts may also be used to simulate a fully invested position in the underlying bonds while maintaining a cash balance for liquidity. The primary risks associated with the use of futures contracts are imperfect correlation between changes in market values of bonds held by the fund and the prices of futures contracts, and the possibility of an illiquid market.
Futures contracts are valued based upon their quoted daily settlement prices. The aggregate principal amounts of the contracts are not recorded in the financial statements. Fluctuations in the value of the contracts are recorded in the Statement of Net Assets as an asset (liability) and in the Statement of Operations as unrealized appreciation (depreciation) until the contracts are closed, when they are recorded as realized futures gains (losses).
3. Federal Income Taxes: The fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company and distribute all of its income. Accordingly, no provision for federal income taxes is required in the financial statements.
4. Distributions: Distributions from net investment income are declared daily and paid on the first business day of the following month. Annual distributions from realized capital gains, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
41
New Jersey Long-Term Tax-Exempt Fund
5. Other: Interest income is accrued daily. Premiums and discounts on debt securities purchased are amortized and accreted, respectively, to interest income over the lives of the respective securities. Security transactions are accounted for on the date securities are bought or sold. Costs used to determine realized gains (losses) on the sale of investment securities are those of the specific securities sold.
Each class of shares has equal rights as to assets and earnings, except that each class separately bears certain class-specific expenses related to maintenance of shareholder accounts (included in Management and Administrative expenses) and shareholder reporting. Marketing and distribution expenses are allocated to each class of shares based on a method approved by the board of trustees. Income, other non-class-specific expenses, and gains and losses on investments are allocated to each class of shares based on its relative net assets.
B. The Vanguard Group furnishes at cost investment advisory, corporate management, administrative, marketing, and distribution services. The costs of such services are allocated to the fund under methods approved by the board of trustees. The fund has committed to provide up to 0.40% of its net assets in capital contributions to Vanguard. At May 31, 2006, the fund had contributed capital of $176,000 to Vanguard (included in Other Assets), representing 0.01% of the fund’s net assets and 0.18% of Vanguard’s capitalization. The fund’s trustees and officers are also directors and officers of Vanguard.
C. The fund’s investment advisor may direct new issue purchases, subject to obtaining the best price and execution, to underwriters who have agreed to rebate or credit to the fund part of the underwriting fees generated. Such rebates or credits are used solely to reduce the fund’s management and administrative expenses. For the six months ended May 31, 2006, these arrangements reduced the fund’s expenses by $54,000 (an annual rate of 0.01% of average net assets).
D. Capital gain distributions are determined on a tax basis and may differ from realized capital gains for financial reporting purposes. Differences may be permanent or temporary. Permanent differences are reclassified among capital accounts in the financial statements to reflect their tax character. Temporary differences arise when gains or losses are recognized in different periods for financial statement and tax purposes; these differences will reverse at some time in the future. The fund’s tax-basis capital gains and losses are determined only at the end of each fiscal year.
The fund had realized losses totaling $1,267,000 through November 30, 2005, which are deferred for tax purposes and reduce the amount of unrealized appreciation on investment securities for tax purposes.
At May 31, 2006, net unrealized appreciation of investment securities for tax purposes was $33,401,000 consisting of unrealized gains of $45,674,000 on securities that had risen in value since their purchase and $12,273,000 in unrealized losses on securities that had fallen in value since their purchase.
42
New Jersey Long-Term Tax-Exempt Fund
At May 31, 2006, the aggregate settlement value of open futures contracts expiring in September 2006 and the related unrealized appreciation (depreciation) were:
|
| ($000) | |
| Number of | Aggregate | Unrealized |
| Long (Short) | Settlement | Appreciation |
Futures Contracts | Contracts | Value | (Depreciation) |
10-Year U.S. Treasury Note | (1,100) | 115,414 | 683 |
30-Year U.S. Treasury Bond | (405) | 43,019 | 219 |
5-Year U.S. Treasury Note | (150) | 15,541 | 65 |
Unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on open futures contracts is required to be treated as realized gain (loss) for tax purposes.
E. During the six months ended May 31, 2006, the fund purchased $161,229,000 of investment securities and sold $154,539,000 of investment securities, other than temporary cash investments.
F. Capital share transactions for each class of shares were:

About Your Fund’s Expenses
As a shareholder of the fund, you incur ongoing costs, which include costs for portfolio management, administrative services, and shareholder reports (like this one), among others. Operating expenses, which are deducted from a fund’s gross income, directly reduce the investment return of the fund.
A fund’s expenses are expressed as a percentage of its average net assets. This figure is known as the expense ratio. The following examples are intended to help you understand the ongoing costs (in dollars) of investing in your fund and to compare these costs with those of other mutual funds. The examples are based on an investment of $1,000 made at the beginning of the period shown and held for the entire period.
The table below illustrates your fund’s costs in two ways:
• Based on actual fund return. This section helps you to estimate the actual expenses that you paid over the period. The “Ending Account Value” shown is derived from the fund’s actual return, and the third column shows the dollar amount that would have been paid by an investor who started with $1,000 in the fund. You may use the information here, together with the amount you invested, to estimate the expenses that you paid over the period.
To do so, simply divide your account value by $1,000 (for example, an $8,600 account value divided by $1,000 = 8.6), then multiply the result by the number given for your fund under the heading “Expenses Paid During Period.”
• Based on hypothetical 5% yearly return. This section is intended to help you compare your fund’s costs with those of other mutual funds. It assumes that the fund had a yearly return of 5% before expenses, but that the expense ratio is unchanged. In this case—because the return used is not the fund’s actual return—the results do not apply to your investment. The example is useful in making comparisons because the Securities and Exchange Commission requires all mutual funds to calculate expenses based on a 5% return. You can assess your fund’s costs by comparing this hypothetical example with the hypothetical examples that appear in shareholder reports of other funds.

1 | These calculations are based on expenses incurred in the most recent six-month period. The funds’ annualized six-month expense ratios for that period are: for the New Jersey Tax-Exempt Money Market Fund, 0.13%; for the New Jersey Long-Term Tax-Exempt Fund Investor Shares, 0.17%, and Admiral Shares, 0.09%. The dollar amounts shown as “Expenses Paid” are equal to the annualized expense ratio multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by the number of days in the most recent six-month period, then divided by the number of days in the most recent 12-month period. |
44
Note that the expenses shown in the table are meant to highlight and help you compare ongoing costs only and do not reflect any transactional costs or account maintenance fees. They do not include your fund’s low-balance fee, which is described in the prospectus. If this fee were applied to your account, your costs would be higher. Your fund does not charge transaction fees, such as purchase or redemption fees, nor does it carry a “sales load.”
The calculations assume no shares were bought or sold during the period. Your actual costs may have been higher or lower, depending on the amount of your investment and the timing of any purchases or redemptions.
You can find more information about the fund’s expenses, including annual expense ratios, in the Financial Statements section of this report. For additional information on operating expenses and other shareholder costs, please refer to the appropriate fund prospectus.

Trustees Approve Advisory Arrangement
The board of trustees of the Vanguard New Jersey Tax-Exempt Funds has renewed the funds’ investment advisory arrangement with The Vanguard Group, Inc. Vanguard—through its Fixed Income Group—serves as the investment advisor for both of the funds. The board determined that continuing the funds’ internalized management structure was in the best interests of the funds and their shareholders.
The board based its decision upon its most recent evaluation of the advisor’s investment staff, portfolio management process, and performance. The trustees considered the factors discussed below, among others. However, no single factor determined whether the board approved the arrangement. Rather, it was the totality of the circumstances that drove the board’s decision.
Nature, extent, and quality of services
The board considered the quality of the funds’ investment management over both short- and long-term periods, and took into account the organizational depth and stability of the advisor. Vanguard has been managing investments for more than two decades. George U. Sauter, Vanguard managing director and chief investment officer, has been in the investment management business since 1985. Robert F. Auwaerter, principal in charge of the Fixed Income Group, has been in the investment management business since 1978. The Fixed Income Group adheres to a sound, disciplined investment management process; the team has considerable experience, stability, and depth.
The board concluded that Vanguard’s experience, stability, depth, and performance, among other factors, warranted continuation of the advisory arrangement.
Investment performance
The board considered the short- and long-term performance of the funds, including any periods of outperformance or underperformance of relevant benchmarks and peer groups. The board noted that the funds have performed in line with expectations, and that their results have been consistent with their investment strategies. Information about the funds’ performance, including some of the data considered by the board, can be found in the Performance Summary sections of this report.
Cost
The funds’ expense ratios were far below the average expense ratios charged by funds in their respective peer groups. Each fund’s advisory expense ratio was also well below its peer-group average. Information about the funds’ expense ratios appears in the About Your Fund’s Expenses section of this report as well as in the Financial Statements sections.
The board does not conduct a profitability analysis of Vanguard, because of Vanguard’s unique “at-cost” structure. Unlike most other mutual fund management companies, Vanguard is owned by the funds it oversees, and produces “profits” only in the form of reduced expenses for fund shareholders.
The benefit of economies of scale
The board of trustees concluded that the Vanguard New Jersey Tax-Exempt Funds’ low-cost arrangement with Vanguard ensures that the funds will realize economies of scale as they grow, with the cost to shareholders declining as fund assets increase.
The board will consider whether to renew the advisory arrangement again after a one-year period.

Glossary
Average Coupon. The average interest rate paid on the fixed income securities held by a fund. It is expressed as a percentage of face value.
Average Duration. An estimate of how much the value of the bonds held by a fund will fluctuate in response to a change in interest rates. To see how the value could change, multiply the average duration by the change in rates. If interest rates rise by 1 percentage point, the value of the bonds in a fund with an average duration of five years would decline by about 5%. If rates decrease by a percentage point, the value would rise by 5%.
Average Effective Maturity. The average length of time until fixed income securities held by a fund reach maturity and are repaid, taking into consideration the possibility that the issuer may call the bond before its maturity date. The figure reflects the proportion of fund assets represented by each security; it also reflects any futures contracts held. In general, the longer the average effective maturity, the more a fund’s share price will fluctuate in response to changes in market interest rates.
Average Quality. An indicator of credit risk, this figure is the average of the ratings assigned to a fund’s holdings by credit-rating agencies. The agencies make their judgment after appraising an issuer’s ability to meet its obligations. Quality is graded on a scale, with AAA indicating the most creditworthy bond issuers and MIG-1, A-1+, SP-1+, and F-1+ indicating the most creditworthy issuers of money market securities.
Average Weighted Maturity. The average length of time until fixed income securities held by a fund reach maturity and are repaid. The figure reflects the proportion of fund assets represented by each security.
Beta. A measure of the magnitude of a fund’s past share-price fluctuations in relation to the ups and downs of a given market index. The index is assigned a beta of 1.00. Compared with a given index, a fund with a beta of 1.20 typically would have seen its share price rise or fall by 12% when the index rose or fell by 10%. A fund’s beta should be reviewed in conjunction with its R-squared (see definition below). The lower the R-squared, the less correlation there is between the fund and the index, and the less reliable beta is as an indicator of volatility.
Expense Ratio. The percentage of a fund’s average net assets used to pay its annual administrative and advisory expenses. These expenses directly reduce returns to investors.
R-Squared. A measure of how much of a fund’s past returns can be explained by the returns from the market in general, as measured by a given index. If a fund’s total returns were precisely synchronized with an index’s returns, its R-squared would be 1.00. If the fund’s returns bore no relationship to the index’s returns, its R-squared would be 0.
Short-Term Reserves. The percentage of a fund invested in highly liquid, short-term securities that can be readily converted to cash.
Yield. A snapshot of a fund’s interest income. The yield, expressed as a percentage of the fund’s net asset value, is based on income earned over the past 30 days (7 days for money market funds) and is annualized, or projected forward for the coming year.
Yield to Maturity. The rate of return an investor would receive if the fixed income securities held by a fund were held to their maturity dates.

The People Who Govern Your Fund
The trustees of your mutual fund are there to see that the fund is operated and managed in your best interests since, as a shareholder, you are a part owner of the fund. Your fund trustees also serve on the board of directors of The Vanguard Group, Inc., which is owned by the Vanguard funds and provides services to them on an at-cost basis.
A majority of Vanguard’s board members are independent, meaning that they have no affiliation with Vanguard or the funds they oversee, apart from the sizable personal investments they have made as private individuals.
Our independent board members bring distinguished backgrounds in business, academia, and public service to their task of working with Vanguard officers to establish the policies and oversee the activities of the funds. Among board members’ responsibilities are selecting investment advisors for the funds; monitoring fund operations, performance, and costs; reviewing contracts; nominating and selecting new trustees/directors; and electing Vanguard officers.
Each trustee serves a fund until its termination; or until the trustee’s retirement, resignation, or death; or otherwise as specified in the fund’s organizational documents. Any trustee may be removed at a shareholders’ meeting by a vote representing two-thirds of the net asset value of all shares of the fund together with shares of other Vanguard funds organized within the same trust. The table on these two pages shows information for each trustee and executive officer of the fund. The mailing address of the trustees and officers is P.O. Box 876, Valley Forge, PA 19482.
