About DFJ
The Fund employs a “passivemanagement” – or indexing – investment approach designed to track the performance of the Index. The Fund generallyuses a representative sampling strategy to achieve its investment objective, meaning it generally will invest in a sample of the securitiesin the Index whose risk, return, and other characteristics resemble the risk, return, and other characteristics of the Index as a whole. The Index is a modified capitalization-weighted index that is comprised of dividend-payingsmall capitalization companies in Japan. As of June 30, 2025, the Index had a market capitalization range from $91.9 million to $5.6billion, with an average market capitalization of $779.1 million. To be eligible for inclusion in the Index, a company must meet thefollowing key criteria as of the annual screening date: (i) conduct its Primary Business Activities in Japan and list its shares on theTokyo Stock Exchange; (ii) payment of at least $5 million in gross cash dividends (i.e., total dividends paid including capitalgains distributions and non-taxable distributions and without excluding taxes, fees and other expenses) on shares of common stock duringthe preceding annual cycle; (iii) market capitalization of at least $100 million; (iv) median daily dollar trading volume of at least$100,000 for the preceding three months; and (v) trading of at least 250,000 shares per month for each of the preceding six months. TheIndex is then created by removing the 300 largest companies by market capitalization from the list of eligible companies, as of the annualscreening date. The country in which a company conducts its Primary Business Activities is determined based on one or more of the followingfactors: country of organization or incorporation, country in which a company’s headquarters is located, the country to which acompany has the greatest risk exposure, and the country from which a company generates the most significant portion of its revenue orto which it allocates the greatest resources. Securities are weighted in the Index based on dividends paid over the prior annual cycle.Companies that pay a greater total dollar amount of dividends are more heavily weighted. On the Index’s annual screening date,the maximum weight of any security in the Index is capped at 2%, and the Index caps the weight of constituents exposed to any one sector(except for the real estate sector) at 25%. The weight of constituents exposed to the real estate sector is capped at 15%. The specifiedcaps and thresholds described above are applied concurrently and in a manner designed to seek to minimize deviation from a constituent’sinitial or intended weighting in the Index. The Index also may adjust the weight of individual constituents on the annual screening datebased on certain quantitative thresholds or limits tied to key metrics of a constituent security, such as its trading volume. To theextent the Index reduces an individual constituent’s weight, the excess weight will be reallocated pro rata among the other constituents.Similarly, if the Index increases a constituent’s weight, the weight of the other constituents will be reduced on a pro rata basisto contribute the weight needed for such increase. The weight of a sector or individual constituent in the Index may fluctuate aboveor below specified caps and thresholds between rebalance dates in response to market conditions. WisdomTree, Inc. (“WisdomTree”), the Index Providerand parent company of WisdomTree Asset Management, Inc. (“WisdomTree Asset Management” or the “Adviser”), currentlyuses the Global Industry Classification Standard (GICS®),a widely recognized industry classification methodology developed by MSCI, Inc. and Standard & Poor’s Financial Services LLC,to identify the extent of the Index’s exposure to a sector or industry. A GICS sector typically is composed of multiple industries.Because the Fund seeks to track the Index, it is expected to have the same sector and industry exposure as the Index. While the Index’sand the Fund’s sector exposure may vary from time to time, as of June 30, 2025, the Index, and, therefore, the Fund, had significantexposure (e.g., approximately 15% or more of the Index’s total weight) to the Industrials and Consumer Discretionary Sectors. Tothe extent the Index is concentrated in the securities of companies assigned to a particular industry or group of industries, the Fundwill seek to concentrate its investments (i.e., invest more than 25% of its assets) in such industry or group of industries toapproximately the same extent as the Index.
