A summary of the proxy voting policies and procedures and proxy voting guidelines adopted by Dimensional Fund Advisors, the sub-advisor for the Dimensional Funds, can be found in the Annual Information Form for the funds.

The proxy voting record is an alphabetical listing of issuers whose voting securities were held by the Dimensional Funds during the relevant period. The record indicates how or whether the funds voted on each matter submitted to securityholders of those issuers.

Sponsor	This column indicates who proposed the matter voted on, Management or a Shareholder
Mgt Rec	Management Recommended Vote. This column indicates whether management of the issuer recommended a vote for or against the matter voted on.
Vote Cast	This column indicates how the Dimensional Funds voted on each matter. "For" indicates that the votes were cast in favour of the matter. "Against" indicates that the votes were cast against the matter. "Withheld" indicates that the fund did not vote on the matter. Did Not Vote indicates that the Fund did not vote that particular ballot, in most cases due to the fact that the Fund is not voting ballots for securities settled in certain countries.
