Why you should vote
Fund shareholders are being asked to vote to approve new investment
advisory agreements and, where applicable, new investment sub-advisory agreements. Your vote is important because the acquisition
may cause each Fund’s existing investment advisory and, where applicable, investment sub-advisory agreement to terminate.
The Funds’ investment objectives, investment strategies, portfolio managers and brands are expected to remain the same upon
closing of the transaction.
How to vote
Voting is easy and shareholders may vote online, by phone, by mail,
or at the shareholder meeting. Please follow the instructions on your proxy card or voting instruction form to vote. Below are
