<strong>Tax</strong>-<strong>Managed</strong> <strong>International</strong> <strong>Fund</strong><br />

Performance Summary<br />

All of the returns in this report represent past performance, which is not a guarantee of future<br />

results that may be achieved by the fund. (Current performance may be lower or higher than<br />

the performance data cited. For performance data current to the most recent month-end, visit<br />

our website at www.vanguard.com/performance.) Note, too, that both investment returns and<br />

principal value can fluctuate widely, so an investor’s shares, when sold, could be worth more<br />

or less than their original cost. The returns shown do not reflect taxes that a shareholder would<br />

pay on fund distributions or on the sale of fund shares.<br />
