QUALIFIED INTEREST INCOME (“QII”) REPORT FOR NON-RESIDENT ALIEN (“NRA”) SHAREHOLDERS 2016 TAX INFORMATION
The following information relates to Non-Resident Alien ("NRA") shareholders and their advisors only. In accordance with the American Jobs Creation Act of 2004, recently
permanently extended by Congress, NRA investors may be exempt from all or a portion of the withholding tax on distributions from the VanEck Vector ETFs to the extent
attributable to interest-related dividends and short-term capital gain dividends. Generally, Non-Resident Alien (“NRA”) shareholders are subject to a 30% (or lower tax treaty rate
depending on the country) NRA withholding tax on dividend income and short-term capital gain dividends, unless such dividends are designated as exempt from NRA withholding
tax. The distributions that have been identified by the VanEck Vector ETFs as exempt from NRA withholding are disclosed in the table below.
The information contained in this report pertains to NRA shareholders only. Shareholders filing United States income tax returns should disregard this information. NRA
shareholders will receive Form 1042-S from their financial institution. This form will report income and any amounts of NRA withholding on their VanEck Vectors ETFs.
VanEck Vectors ETFs that are not listed on this report did not have any distributions attributable to interest-related dividends or short-term capital gain dividends.
This information should not be construed as tax advice. Please consult your professional tax adviser for further information.
