Recently, we sent you proxy material regarding the Special Meeting of Shareholders that is scheduled for April 9, 2021. It is critical that your voice be heard on this very important proposal concerning making a change to your fund’s subclassification from ‘diversified’ to ‘non-diversified’. The Board has unanimously voted for this change to take place. But it cannot move forward without the support of shareholders like you.

According to our records, we have not received your vote!
