Special Meeting of Shareholders: November 25, 2025
We recently sent you proxy materials concerning important proposals affecting your fund(s), which will be considered at a Special Meeting of Shareholders of the funds on November 25, 2025. This email was sent because you held shares in the fund(s) on the record date and we have not received your vote.
YOUR FUNDS' BOARD RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE "FOR" THE PROPOSALS
YOUR VOTE IS VERY IMPORTANT
VOTING NOW HELPS MINIMIZE PROXY COSTS, AVOIDS UNNECESSARY
COMMUNICATIONS AND ELIMINATES PHONE CALLS TO SHAREHOLDERS
Your vote is very important. We encourage you as a shareholder to participate in your fund's governance by returning your vote as soon as possible. If enough shareholders fail to cast their votes, a fund may not be able to hold its Meeting or the vote on the proposals and will be required to incur additional solicitation costs in order to obtain sufficient shareholder participation. Because your vote is critical, our outreach to you will continue until there is sufficient voting.
Important proxy voting material is ready for your review.
Control Number: [x] Security Code: [x]
If more than one control number appears, each must be voted individually for your vote to be counted on all shares.
For Shareholders as of August 28, 2025.
