Shareholders are also being asked to approve a new sub-advisory agreement for the Fund that will continue the existing sub-advisory arrangement subsequent to the prospective change of ownership of FE Holdings. Lastly, Shareholders are being asked to elect members to the Board of Trustees.

It is important that you exercise your right to vote. **Please take a moment to sign, date and mail the enclosed proxy card in the pre-paid envelope or follow the instructions below to vote by telephone or internet.**

**How will the acquisition affect my investment?**
