Starting from the November 2010 index review, the index review announcement dates for the MSCI High Dividend Yield Indices will be changed to the close of the 9th business day prior to the May and November semi-annual index review implementation dates (for example, November 18, 2010 for the November 2010 index review). The index review implementation date remains as of the close of the last business day of the respective month.

The MSCI High Dividend Yield Indices will be distributed through MSCI Integrated Client File (ICF) format files to clients licensed to receive the relevant MSCI Core or Core VG Plus Module. Changes resulting from index reviews will be communicated in the MSCI ICF-format files from the index review announcement date to the index review implementation date. Consequently, starting from the November 2010 index review, MSCI will no longer provide index review comparison reports for MSCI High Dividend Yield indices.
