**Brighthouse Funds Trust I and II Proxy Impacting Variable Life** 

**and Variable Annuity Clients** 

Clients invested in <u>one or more Brighthouse Funds Trust I (BHFT I) and/or Brighthouse Funds Trust II (BHFT II) Portfolios</u> at the close of business on March 23, 2026 will be asked to vote on four proposals, as detailed in a proxy package expected to commence on **April 13, 2026**.

Please see proposals below:

1. **New investment management agreements** 

Each fund would enter into a new agreement with its investment manager, Brighthouse Investment Adviser, LLC ("BIA") allowing BIA to continue to oversee the Portfolio.

2. **New sub -advisory agreements for certain funds** 

For specific funds that use MetLife Investment Management (MIM) as a sub-advisor, shareholder approval is required for new agreements between BIA and MIM. MIM is an affiliate of BHFTI and BHFTII.

3. **Increased flexibility in hiring sub -advisors** 

BIA and the Portfolios would be permitted to hire, replace, or change affiliated sub-advisors without seeking shareholder approval for each change. The Portfolios already rely on similar relief for unaffiliated sub-advisors

4. **Changes to diversification status for certain large -cap funds** 

Several large-cap funds would change from "diversified" to "non-diversified" status, allowing portfolio managers to exercise flexibility to express conviction and manage position sized relative to its respective benchmark.

Proposals 1 and 2 relate to the merger of Brighthouse Financial, Inc. (the parent company of Brighthouse Investment Advisers, LLC, the investment adviser of the Portfolios) with an affiliate of Aquarian Capital, LLC. At the close of the merger, the existing investment management agreements with BIA and sub-advisors will automatically terminate and these votes permit the funds to continue using BIA and the sub-advisors.

**Why am I being asked to approve new advisory and subadvisory agreements?** 

BIA's ultimate parent company, Brighthouse Financial, has entered into a definitive agreement to be acquired by an affiliate of Aquarian (the "Transaction". The Transaction will result in a change in control of Brighthouse Financial, thereby causing a change in control of BIA. The change in control of BIA, would constitute an "assignment" of the current investment advisory agreements within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940.The current investment advisory agreements provide for automatic termination in the event of their assignment. Each subadvisory agreement provides for automatic termination upon termination of the applicable investment advisory agreement.

------

**Why am I being asked to approve a modified manager-of-managers order?** 

The current manger-of-managers order allows BIA and the Portfolios to retain subadvisers and amend subadvisory agreements upon Board approval, but without the additional expense of obtaining shareholder vote. The current manger-of-managers order does not apply to subadvisers affiliated with BIA or the BHFTI and BHFTII. The modified manager-of-managers order would allow BIA and the Portfolios to retain subadvisers and amend subadvisory agreements for affiliated subadvisers upon Board approval, but without the additional expense of obtaining shareholder vote.

**Why am I being asked to approve a change to diversification policies for the Large Cap Portfolios?** 

In recent years, the benchmarks used by the Large Cap Portfolios have become increasingly concentrated in a limited number of large capitalization and large capitalization growth issuers. While the Large Cap Portfolios are not index funds (i.e., funds that seek to track the performance of a benchmark), they do select securities from the benchmarks' universe and the Large Cap Portfolios' performance is assessed against the benchmarks. Currently, the Large Cap Portfolios are not able to invest in these large benchmark constituents in similar proportions as the benchmarks because of their diversified status. In particular, each Large Cap Portfolio faces difficulty in maintaining issuer level exposures consistent with the investment processes and portfolio construction approaches that are central to its strategy, while also remaining within the limitations applicable to a diversified fund. The change to "non-diversified" is intended to allow portfolio managers to exercise flexibility to express conviction and manage position sized relative to its respective benchmark.
