**NOTICE OF A SPECIAL JOINT**

**MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS**

Dear Shareholder:

NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that a Special Joint Meeting of Shareholders (the "Meeting") of American Beacon Funds ("Beacon Trust"), American Beacon Select Funds ("Select Trust") and American Beacon Institutional Funds Trust ("Institutional Trust," and together with Beacon Trust and Select Trust, the "Trusts") will be held at 2:00 p.m. Central Time on August 14, 2025, at the offices of the Trusts, 220 East Las Colinas Boulevard, Suite 1200, Irving, Texas 75039. In connection with the Meeting, as a shareholder of one or more series ("Funds") of the Trusts, you are asked to consider and act upon the following Proposal ("Proposal"):

**<u>Proposal:</u> To elect eight (8) trustees ("Trustees") to the Board of Trustees of each Trust.**

At a meeting held on June 4, 2025, the members of the Boards of Trustees of the Trusts who are not "interested persons" of the Trusts, within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended ("1940 Act") ("Independent Trustees"), unanimously nominated, and recommended to shareholders the election of the six current Trustees and two new Trustees to each Trust's Board. The two nominees for Trustee are Ms. Janet C. Smith and Mr. Paul Zemsky, who, if elected, will serve as Independent Trustees on each Trust's Board. The six current Trustees are Messrs. Gilbert G. Alvarado, Gerard J. Arpey, Eugene J. Duffy and Douglas A. Lindgren, and Mses. Claudia A. Holz and Barbara J. McKenna. If shareholders elect the proposed two new nominees and the six current Trustees listed above, each Trust's Board will consist of eight Trustees, seven of whom will be Independent Trustees and one of whom will be deemed to be an "interested person" of the Trusts, as defined by the 1940 Act ("Interested Trustee"). Mr. Duffy is deemed to be an Interested Trustee.

**The Boards of Trustees of the Trusts ("Board") unanimously recommend that you vote in favor of the Proposal.**

Shareholders will also be asked to transact any other business as may properly come before the Meeting.

You should read the accompanying proxy statement ("Proxy Statement") prior to completing your proxy card. Only holders of record of shares of beneficial interest of each Fund at the close of business on May 30, 2025 ("Record Date") are entitled to receive notice of, and vote at, the Meeting and any adjournments or postponements thereof. All shareholders of a Trust will vote on the Proposal. Shareholders of each Trust will vote separately from shareholders of each other Trust. If you owned shares in more than one Fund as of the Record Date, you may receive more than one proxy card. **Please vote each proxy card you receive.**

If you attend the Meeting, you may vote your shares in person. Whether or not you expect to attend the Meeting, please complete, date, sign and return promptly in the enclosed envelope, the accompanying proxy card(s) being solicited by the Board. This is important to ensure a quorum at the Meeting. You also may return proxies by voting online or by telephone. Proxies may be revoked at any time before they are exercised by submitting to a Trust a written notice of revocation prior to the Meeting or a subsequently executed proxy or by attending the Meeting and voting in person. If you hold your shares through a financial intermediary and plan to vote at the meeting, or would like to revoke your proxy, please contact your financial intermediary to do so.

The Special Meeting of Shareholders of each Trust is a separate meeting, but these Special Meetings of Shareholders are being held jointly and are referred to herein together as the "Meeting," and each such Special Meeting of Shareholders has a separate quorum and voting requirement with respect to each Trust.

**YOUR VOTE IS IMPORTANT**

**Please return your proxy card(s) promptly.**

You may think that your vote is not important, but it is. By law, the Meeting will have to be adjourned without conducting any business if a quorum is not present in person or represented by proxy at the Meeting for a Trust. In that event, a Trust would continue to solicit votes for a certain period of time in an attempt to achieve a quorum. Your vote could be critical in allowing each Trust to hold the Meeting as scheduled, so please return your proxy card(s) immediately or vote online or by telephone.

**Important Notice Regarding the Availability of Proxy Materials for the Special Meeting of Shareholders to be Held on August 14, 2025, or any adjournments or postponements thereof.** This Notice and the Proxy Statement are available on the Internet at https://www.americanbeaconfunds.com/resource_center/MutualFundForms.aspx. On this website, you will be able to access the Notice, the Proxy Statement, any accompanying materials and any amendments or supplements to the foregoing materials that are required to be furnished to shareholders.

By Order of the Board of Trustees,

| | |
|:---|:---|
| **Q:** | **Why am I being asked to elect Trustees?** |
| A: | Each Trust is governed by a Board of Trustees (each member thereof, a "Trustee" and collectively "Trustees" or "Board"). At a meeting held on June 4, 2025, those members of the Board who are not "interested persons" of the Trusts, within the meaning of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended ("1940 Act") ("Independent Trustees"), unanimously nominated, and recommended to shareholders the election of the six current Trustees and two new Trustees to each Trust's Board. The two nominees for Trustee are Ms. Janet C. Smith and Mr. Paul Zemsky, who, if elected, will serve as Independent Trustees on each Trust's Board. The six current Trustees are Messrs. Gilbert G. Alvarado, Gerard J. Arpey, Eugene J. Duffy and Douglas A. Lindgren, and Mses. Claudia A. Holz and Barbara J. McKenna. If shareholders elect the proposed two new nominees and the six current Trustees, each Trust's Board will consist of eight Trustees, seven of whom will be Independent Trustees and one of whom will be deemed to be an "interested person" of the Trusts, as defined by the 1940 Act ("Interested Trustee").

However, such costs, fees and expenses are subject to any contractual fee waiver/expense reimbursement agreements between American Beacon Advisors, Inc. (the "Manager"), the Funds' manager and administrator, and a Trust, on behalf of a Fund (each, a "Waiver Agreement"). As a result, the Manager will pay such costs, fees and expenses to the extent that they exceed a Fund's current expense cap in its Waiver Agreement. The Manager has retained Computershare Inc. to assist in the distribution of proxy material and the solicitation and tabulation of voting results at a cost that is estimated to be approximately $1.07 million. |

**OVERVIEW**

Proposal: To Elect Eight (8) Trustees to the Board of Trustees of Each Trust

**All shareholders of a Trust will vote on the Proposal. Shareholders of each Trust will vote separately from shareholders of each other Trust.**

At a meeting held on June 4, 2025, those members of the Board who are not "interested persons" of the Trusts, within the meaning of the 1940 Act ("Independent Trustees"), unanimously nominated, and recommended to shareholders the election of the six current Trustees and two new Trustees to each Trust's Board. The two nominees for Trustee are Ms. Janet C. Smith and Mr. Paul Zemsky, who, if elected, will serve as Independent Trustees on each Trust's Board. The six current Trustees are Messrs. Gilbert G. Alvarado, Gerard J. Arpey, Eugene J. Duffy and Douglas A. Lindgren, and Mses. Claudia A. Holz and Barbara J. McKenna. If shareholders elect the proposed two new nominees and the six current Trustees listed above, each Trust's Board will consist of eight Trustees, seven of whom will be Independent Trustees and one of whom will be deemed to be an "interested person" of the Trusts, as defined by the 1940 Act ("Interested Trustee"). Mr. Duffy is deemed to be an Interested Trustee.

If elected by the shareholders of each Trust, the election of Trustees will be effective immediately with respect to the current Trustees. The new Trustees are expected to assume their roles no later than August 25, 2025. Each Trustee will hold office until their termination, resignation or removal. Each nominee and current Trustee has indicated a willingness to serve or continue to serve, as applicable if elected. If any nominee should not be available for election, the persons named as proxies (or their substitutes) may vote for other persons in their discretion. Management has no reason to believe that any nominee will be unavailable for election.

Ms. Janet C. Smith and Mr. Paul Zemsky were recommended by the Board's Nominating and Governance Committee and nominated by the Independent Trustees for election at the Meeting.

The persons named as proxies on the enclosed proxy card will vote **FOR** the election of the nominees listed above unless the shareholder specifically indicates on his or her proxy card a desire to withhold authority to vote for any nominee.

Messrs. Alvarado, Arpey and Duffy and Ms. McKenna were previously elected by the shareholders of the Trusts. Mr. Lindgren and Ms. Holz were previously appointed by the Board pursuant to the provisions of Section 16(a) of the 1940 Act. If a quorum is not achieved for any Trust, the current Trustees who were previously elected to the Board by shareholders will remain in office and still will be considered as having been elected by the shareholders of each Trust pursuant to their previous election. The current Trustees who were previously appointed by the Board will remain in office and still will be considered as having been duly appointed to the Board pursuant to the provisions of Section 16(a) of the 1940 Act.

The Trusts are governed by the Board. The Board is responsible for and oversees the overall management and operations of the Trusts and the Funds, which includes the general oversight and review of the Funds' investment activities, in accordance with federal law and the law of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts or the State of Delaware, as applicable, as well as the stated

[Back to **Table of Contents**](#toc)

policies of the Funds. The Board oversees the Trusts' officers and service providers, including the Manager, which is responsible for the management of the day-to-day operations of the Funds based on policies and agreements reviewed and approved by the Board. In carrying out these responsibilities, the Board regularly interacts with and receives reports from senior personnel of service providers, including the Manager's investment personnel and the Trusts' Chief Compliance Officer ("CCO"). The Board also is assisted by the Trusts' independent registered public accounting firm (which reports directly to the Trusts' Audit and Compliance Committee), independent counsel and other experts as appropriate, all of whom are selected by the Board.

***Risk Oversight***

Consistent with its responsibility for oversight of the Trusts and the Funds, the Board oversees the management of risks relating to the administration and operation of the Trusts and the Funds. The Manager, as part of its responsibilities for the day-to-day operations of the Funds, is responsible for day-to-day risk management for the Funds. The Board, in the exercise of its reasonable business judgment, also separately considers potential risks that may impact the Funds. The Board performs this risk management oversight directly and, as to certain matters, through its committees (described below) and through the Independent Trustees. The following provides an overview of the principal, but not all, aspects of the Board's oversight of risk management for the Trusts and the Funds.

In general, a Fund's risks include, among others, investment risk, credit risk, liquidity risk, securities selection risk and valuation risk. The Board has adopted, and periodically reviews, policies and procedures designed to address these and other risks to the Trusts and the Funds. In addition, under the general oversight of the Board, the Manager, each Fund's investment sub-advisor, and other service providers to the Funds have themselves adopted a variety of policies, procedures and controls designed to address particular risks to the Funds. Different processes, procedures and controls are employed with respect to different types of risks. Further, the Manager oversees and regularly monitors the investments, operations and compliance of the Funds' investment sub-advisors.

The Board also oversees risk management for the Trusts and the Funds through review of regular reports, presentations and other information from officers of the Trusts and other persons. Senior officers of the Trusts, senior officers of the Manager, and the Funds' CCO regularly report to the Board on a range of matters, including those relating to risk management. The Board and the Investment Committee also regularly receive reports from the Manager with respect to the investments, securities trading and securities lending activities of the Funds, as applicable. In addition to regular reports from the Manager, the Board also receives reports regarding other service providers to the Trusts, either directly or through the Manager or the Funds' CCO, on a periodic or regular basis. At least annually, the Board receives a report from the Funds' CCO regarding the effectiveness of the Funds' compliance program. Also, typically on an annual basis, the Board receives reports, presentations and other information from the Manager in connection with the Board's consideration of the renewal of each of each Trust's agreements with the Manager and a Trust's distribution plans under Rule 12b-1 under the 1940 Act, if any.

Senior officers of the Trusts and the Manager also report regularly to the Audit and Compliance Committee on Fund valuation matters and on the Trusts' internal controls and accounting and financial reporting policies and practices. In addition, the Audit and Compliance Committee receives regular reports from the Trusts' independent registered public accounting firm on internal control and financial reporting matters. On at least a quarterly basis, the Audit and Compliance Committee meets with the Funds' CCO to discuss matters relating to the Funds' compliance program.

***Board Structure and Related Matters***

All but one members of the Board are Independent Trustees. Douglas A. Lindgren, an Independent Trustee, serves as Chair of the Board. The Chair's responsibilities include: setting an agenda for each meeting of the Board; presiding at all meetings of the Board and Independent Trustees; and serving as a liaison with other Trustees, the Trusts' officers and other management personnel, and counsel to the Funds. The Chair shall perform such other duties as the Board may from time to time determine.

The Trustees discharge their responsibilities collectively as a Board, as well as through standing Board committees, each of which operates pursuant to a charter approved by the Board that delineates the responsibilities of that committee. The Board has established three standing committees: the Audit and Compliance Committee, the Investment Committee and the Nominating and Governance Committee. For example, the Investment Committee is responsible for oversight of the process, typically performed annually, by which the Board considers whether to approve each Fund's management agreement with the Manager and, as applicable, its investment advisory agreement(s) with its sub-advisor(s), while specific matters related to oversight of the Funds' independent auditors have been delegated by the Board to its Audit and Compliance Committee. The members and responsibilities of each Board committee are summarized below.

The Board periodically evaluates its structure and composition as well as various aspects of its operations. The Board believes that its leadership structure, including its Chair position and its committees, is appropriate for the Trusts in light of, among other factors, the asset size and nature of the Funds in the Trusts, the number of series of the American Beacon Funds Complex overseen by the Board, the arrangements for the conduct of the Funds' operations, the number of Trustees, and the Board's responsibilities. On an annual basis, the Board conducts a self-evaluation that considers, among other matters, whether the Board and its committees are functioning effectively and whether, given the size and composition of the Board and each of its committees, the Trustees are able to oversee effectively the number of Funds in the complex.

The Trusts together constitute the American Beacon Funds Complex, which is comprised of 27 series within the Beacon Trust, one series within the Institutional Trust, and four series within the Select Trust. The same persons constitute the Board of each Trust, and each Trustee oversees, and each Trustee or nominee would oversee or continue to oversee if elected, the Trusts' combined 32 series.

[Back to **Table of Contents**](#toc)

The Board holds five regularly scheduled meetings each year. The Board may hold special meetings, as needed, either in person or by videoconference or telephone, to address matters arising between regular meetings. The Independent Trustees also conduct executive sessions without the presence of management personnel, including at least quarterly in a session at which no Interested Trustees or management are present, and may hold special meetings, as needed, either in person or by videoconference or telephone.

The six current Trustees of each Trust, and the nominees for election as Trustees of each Trust, are identified in the tables below, which provide information as to their principal business occupations and directorships held during the last five years and certain other information. Subject to the Trustee Retirement Plan described below, a Trustee serves until his or her successor is elected and qualified or until his or her earlier death, resignation or removal. The address of each person listed below is 220 E. Las Colinas Blvd., Irving, Texas 75039, and shareholders may contact them directly, individually or collectively as a Board, at such address. Each Trustee serves for an indefinite term or until his or her removal, resignation, or retirement.\*

***Committees of the Board***

Each Trust has an Audit and Compliance Committee ("Audit Committee"). The Audit Committee is currently comprised of Ms. Holz (Chair) and Messrs. Arpey and Lindgren, each of whom are Independent Trustees and, with respect to the exchange-traded fund ("ETF") series of the Select Trust, independent under the applicable rule of the exchange on which the ETF series are listed. If elected, Ms. Smith will also serve as a member of the Audit Committee. As set forth in its charter, the primary purposes of each Trust's Audit Committee are: (a) to oversee the accounting and financial reporting processes of each Trust and each Fund and its internal controls and, as the Audit Committee deems appropriate, to inquire into the internal controls of certain third-party service providers; (b) to oversee the quality and integrity of each Trust's financial statements and the independent audit thereof; (c) to approve, prior to appointment, the engagement (and related fee arrangements) of each Trust's independent auditors to perform annual audit services for the Funds and certain non-audit services for the Funds or certain affiliated parties, and, in connection therewith, to review and evaluate the qualifications, independence and performance of each Trust's independent auditors; (d) to oversee a Trust's compliance with all regulatory obligations arising under applicable federal securities laws, rules and regulations and oversee management's implementation and enforcement of the Trusts' compliance policies and procedures ("Compliance Program"); (e) to coordinate the Board's oversight of the CCO in connection with his or her implementation of the Trusts' Compliance Program; and (f) to assist the Board with the aspects of risk oversight of each Trust that are relevant to the Audit Committee, including, but not limited to, valuation, operational, and compliance risks. The Audit Committee met four (4) times during the fiscal years ended June 30, 2024, August 31, 2024, October 31, 2024, December 31, 2024, and January 31, 2025.

Each Trust has an Investment Committee. The Investment Committee is currently comprised of Messrs. Alvarado (Chair) and Duffy and Ms. McKenna.

[Back to **Table of Contents**](#toc)

Each Trust has a Nominating and Governance Committee ("Nominating Committee"). The Nominating Committee is currently comprised of Messrs. Arpey (Chair) and Lindgren, each of whom are Independent Trustees and, with respect to the ETF series of the Select Trust, independent under the applicable rule of the exchange on which the ETF series are listed. As set forth in its charter, the Nominating Committee's primary purposes are: (a) to make recommendations regarding the nomination of Trustees to the Board; (b) to make recommendations regarding the appointment of an Independent Trustee as Chair of the Board; (c) to evaluate qualifications of potential "interested" members of the Board and Trust officers; (d) to review shareholder recommendations for nominations to fill vacancies on the Board; (e) to make recommendations to the Board for nomination for membership on all committees of the Board and of the chairs of such committees; (f) to consider and evaluate the structure, composition and operation of the Board; (g) to review shareholder recommendations for proposals to be submitted for consideration during a meeting of Fund shareholders; (h) to consider and make recommendations relating to the compensation of Independent Trustees; (i) to assist the Board with the aspects of risk oversight of the Trusts that are relevant to the Nominating Committee, including, but not limited to, the stewardship and overall reputation of the Trusts; (j) to coordinate and supervise an annual self-evaluation by the Board of the performance of the Board and its various committees; (k) to assist the Board in monitoring and, as it deems appropriate, implementing practices that are designed to promote diversity and inclusion within the Board's membership and within the workforces of the Trusts' primary service providers and vendors; and (l) to assist the Board in coordinating with legal counsel to the Trusts and their independent Board members with respect to staffing matters, including, when applicable, succession planning with respect to senior attorneys engaged in these representations. The Board has adopted and approved a formal written charter for the Nominating Committee. A copy of this charter is attached to this Proxy Statement as **<u>Appendix D</u>**.

Shareholder recommendations for Trustee candidates may be mailed in writing, including a comprehensive resume and any supporting documentation, to the Nominating Committee in care of the Secretary of the Funds, and must otherwise comply with the Declaration of Trust and By-Laws of the applicable Trust. In particular, pursuant to the By-Laws a shareholder's notice of nomination must set forth, as to each nominee: (1) the name, age, business address and residence address of such person; (2) the Funds, classes and number of shares of each Trust that are beneficially owned or owned of record by such person; (3) the date such shares were acquired, the investment intent of such acquisition and, with respect to the Select Trust, confirmation that such

[Back to **Table of Contents**](#toc)

shares were the subject of any required filing pursuant to Section 13(d) or 13(g) or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended ("Exchange Act") and Rule 13d-1(a) thereunder; and (4) all other information relating to such person that is required to be disclosed in the proxy statement in an election contest (even if an election contest is not involved), or is otherwise required, pursuant to Regulation 14A or any successor provision under the Exchange Act, including such person's written consent to being named in the proxy statement as a nominee and to serving as a Trustee if elected. Such notice also should include, as to the shareholder giving the notice and each beneficial owner, if any, on whose behalf the nomination or proposal is made: (1) the name and address of such shareholder, and the current name and address, if different, of each such beneficial owner as they appears on the books of the Trust or its transfer or similar agent; (2) the Funds, classes and number of shares of the Trust owned beneficially and of record by such shareholder and such beneficial owner(s); (3) in the case of the Select Trust, the date such shares were acquired, the investment intent of such acquisition and confirmation that such shares were the subject of any required filing pursuant to Rule 13(d) or 13(g) of the Exchange Act; and (4) whether and the extent to which any hedging or other transaction or series of transactions has been entered into by or on behalf of, or any other agreement, arrangement or understanding (including any short position or any borrowing or lending of shares) has been made, the effect or intent of which is to mitigate loss to or manage risk of share price changes for, or to increase the voting power of, such shareholder or beneficial owner with respect to any share of the Trust (collectively "Hedging Activities"), and the extent to which such shareholder or such beneficial owner(s), if any, has engaged in Hedging Activities with respect to shares or other equity interests of any other trust or company. The notice should further include, to the extent known by the shareholder giving the notice, the name and address of any other shareholder supporting the nominee.

The Nominating Committee met four (4) times during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024 and five (5) times during the fiscal years ended August 31, 2024, October 31, 2024, December 31, 2024, and January 31, 2025.

While there is no formal list of specific minimum qualifications, the Nominating Committee considers, among other things, the following criteria for Independent Trustee candidates: (a) unquestioned personal integrity; (b) is not an "interested person" of the Manager or its affiliates within the meaning of the 1940 Act; (c) does not have a material relationship (*e.g.*, commercial, banking, consulting, legal, or accounting) that could create an appearance of lack of independence in respect of the Manager and its affiliates; (d) has the disposition to act independently in respect of the Manager and its affiliates and others in order to protect the interests of the Funds and all shareholders; (e) has the ability to attend all of the meetings per year; (f) demonstrates sound business judgment gained through broad experience in significant positions where the candidate has dealt with management, technical, financial or regulatory issues; (g) has sufficient legal, financial or accounting knowledge to add value in the complex financial environment of the Funds; and (h) has the capacity for the hard work and attention to detail that is required to be an effective Independent Trustee. In considering nominees, the Nominating Committee also considers the diversity of the Board with respect to professional experience, education, skill and viewpoint. The Nominating Committee may determine that a candidate who does not have the type of previous experience or knowledge referred to above should nevertheless be considered as a nominee if the Nominating Committee finds that the candidate had additional qualifications such that his or her qualifications, taken as a whole, demonstrate the same level of fitness to serve as an Independent

[Back to **Table of Contents**](#toc)

Trustee. The Nominating Committee may use a search firm or other sources to identify and evaluate Board candidates, but the determination of which candidates to recommend to the Board is at the discretion of the Nominating Committee.

As part of the nomination process, Ms. Smith and Mr. Zemsky each provided extensive relevant background information and met with members of the Nominating Committee and other Board members. In recommending the election of Ms. Smith and Mr. Zemsky, and the six current Trustees, the Nominating Committee noted the candidates' appropriate background, experience, capabilities and integrity. The Nominating Committee also noted that shareholders last voted to elect Trustees in 2015, and that it would be appropriate for shareholders to do so at this time.

During the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024, the Board held a total of nine meetings. During the fiscal year ended August 31, 2024, the Board held a total of seven meetings. During the fiscal years ended October 31, 2024, December 31, 2024, and January 31, 2025, the Board held a total of six meetings. The Trusts do not hold annual shareholder meetings and, therefore, do not have a policy with respect to Trustees' attendance at such meetings.

***Trustee Compensation***

As compensation for their service to the Trusts, each Trustee is compensated from the Trusts as follows: (1) an annual retainer of $150,000; (2) meeting attendance fee (for attendance in person or via electronic means) of (a) $12,000 for in-person attendance, or $5,000 for telephonic attendance, by Board members for each regularly scheduled or special Board meeting, (b) $2,500 for attendance by Committee members at meetings of the Audit Committee and the Investment Committee, (c) $1,000 for attendance by Committee members at meetings of the Nominating and Governance Committee; and (d) $2,500 for attendance by Board members for each special telephonic Board meeting; and (3) reimbursement of reasonable expenses incurred in attending Board meetings, Committee meetings, and relevant educational seminars. For this purpose, the Board considers attendance at regular meetings held by videoconference to constitute in-person attendance at a Board meeting. The Trustees also may be compensated for attendance at special Board and/or Committee meetings from time to time.

For his service as Board Chair, Mr. Lindgren receives an additional annual retainer of $50,000. Although he attends several committee meetings at each quarterly Board meeting, he receives a single $2,500 fee each quarter for his attendance at the Audit Committee and Investment Committee meetings. The chairpersons of the Audit Committee and the Investment Committee each receive an additional annual retainer of $25,000 and the Chair of the Nominating and Governance Committee receives an additional annual retainer of $10,000.

The Board has adopted a Trustee Retirement Plan. The Trustee Retirement Plan provides that a Trustee who has served on the Board prior to September 12, 2008, and who has reached a mandatory retirement age established by the Board (currently 75) is eligible to elect Trustee Emeritus status ("Eligible Trustees"). The Board has determined that, other than the Trustee Retirement Plan established for Eligible Trustees, no other retirement benefits will accrue for current or future Trustees. None of the current Trustees are Eligible Trustees.

Each Eligible Trustee and his or her spouse (or designated companion) may receive annual flight benefits from the Trusts of up to $40,000 combined, on a tax-grossed up basis, on American Airlines (a subsidiary of the Manager's former parent company) for a maximum period of 10 years,

[Back to **Table of Contents**](#toc)

depending upon length of service prior to September 12, 2008. Eligible Trustees may opt to receive instead an annual retainer of $20,000 from the Trusts in lieu of flight benefits. No retirement benefits are accrued for Board service after September 12, 2008.

A Trustee Emeritus must be reasonably available to provide advice, counseling and assistance to the Trustees and the Manager as needed, as agreed to from time to time by the parties involved; however, a Trustee Emeritus does not have any voting rights at Board meetings and is not subject to election by shareholders of the Funds. Currently, four individuals who retired from the Board and accrued retirement benefits for periods prior to September 12, 2008, have assumed Trustee Emeritus status. Three individuals and their spouses receive annual flight benefits of up to $40,000 combined, on a tax-grossed up basis, on American Airlines. One individual receives an annual retainer of $20,000 from the Trusts in lieu of flight benefits.

Information regarding the Trusts' officers is included in **<u>Appendix C.</u>**

**VOTING INFORMATION**

***Solicitations***

The solicitation of proxies will be made primarily by distribution of the Notice and this Proxy Statement, but also may be solicited by telephone, fax, personal interview, electronic mail, electronic communications or other communications by the proxy solicitor and/or employees of the Manager and its affiliates and the Trusts, who will not receive any compensation from the Trusts for such solicitation.

Each Fund will bear its proportionate share of the costs, fees and expenses incurred in connection with the Proxy Statement and the Meeting, including the costs of printing and mailing the Proxy Statement, and soliciting proxies, and the fees and expenses of accountants and attorneys relating to the Proxy Statement. However, such costs, fees and expenses are subject to any contractual fee waiver/expense reimbursement agreements in place between the Manager and a Trust, on behalf of a Fund (each, a "Waiver Agreement"). As a result, the Manager will pay such costs, fees and expenses to the extent that they exceed a Fund's current expense cap in its Waiver Agreement. The Manager has retained Computershare Inc. to assist in the distribution of proxy material and the solicitation and tabulation of voting results at a cost that is estimated to be approximately $1.07 million.

***Voting, Quorum Requirement and Adjournments***

Shareholders of record on May 30, 2025 are entitled to be present and to vote at the Meeting. Shareholders of each Fund are entitled to one vote for each dollar of net asset value (number of shares owned, multiplied by net asset value per share) as to any matter on which the shareholder is entitled to vote, and each fractional dollar amount shall be entitled to a proportionate fractional vote. Shareholders do not have cumulative voting rights with respect to the Proposal. Votes cast by proxy or in person by a shareholder at the Meeting will be counted by persons appointed as inspectors of election for the Meeting. The number of shares of each class of each Fund issued and outstanding, and the dollar value of these shares as of the Record Date, is included in **<u>Appendix A</u>**.

**All shareholders of a Trust will vote on the Proposal. Shareholders of each Trust will vote separately from shareholders of each other Trust.** If you are a shareholder of more than one Fund, you may receive a separate proxy card with respect to each Fund in which you hold shares.

With respect to the Proposal, holders of shares representing at least one-third of the net asset value (in dollars) of each Trust's shares outstanding and entitled to vote on the Record Date, in person or represented by proxy, constitute a quorum. Such a quorum must be present for the transaction of business with respect to the Proposal. In the absence of a quorum, or in the event that a quorum is present at the Meeting but sufficient votes to approve the Proposal are not received, the Meeting chair may adjourn the Meeting or the persons named as proxies may propose one or more adjournments of the Meeting by vote to permit further solicitation of proxies, without the necessity of further notice, unless a new record date for the adjourned meeting is set. In the absence of a quorum, such adjournment by vote requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the net asset value

[Back to **Table of Contents**](#toc)

(in dollars) present in person or by proxy and entitled to be cast. If a quorum is present but sufficient votes to approve the Proposal are not received, such adjournment by vote requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the net asset value (in dollars) cast in person or by proxy. In either event, the persons named as proxies will vote those proxies that they are entitled to vote FOR the Proposal in favor of such an adjournment and will vote those proxies required to be voted AGAINST the Proposal, or proxies voted WITHHOLD, against such adjournment. A shareholder vote may be taken on the Proposal by one or more Trusts prior to any such adjournment if sufficient votes have been received for the Proposal by such Trust and it is otherwise appropriate.

Abstentions and broker non-votes (shares held by brokers or nominees as to which instructions have not been received from the beneficial owners or the persons entitled to vote and either (i) the broker or nominee does not have discretionary voting power or (ii) the broker or nominee returns the proxy but expressly declines to vote on a particular matter) will be counted as present for purposes of determining whether a quorum is present but will not be voted FOR or AGAINST any adjournment or Proposal. Therefore, abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of a vote for the Proposal, for which the required vote is a plurality of the votes cast in person or by proxy, or on adjournment.

Shareholders are urged to vote or forward their voting instructions promptly. The Trusts expect that brokers may vote on the Proposal in their discretion on behalf of their clients pursuant to applicable New York Stock Exchange rules.

***"Householding"***

One copy of this Proxy Statement may be delivered to multiple shareholders who share a single address, unless the Trusts have previously received contrary instructions from one or more of the shareholders. If you would like to obtain additional copies of this Proxy Statement for each such shareholder, or a copy of any Fund's most recent Annual or Semi-Annual Shareholder Reports, or financial statements and accompanying notes, free of charge, or would like to receive separate copies for each shareholder in the future, please write to the Trusts at 220 East Las Colinas Boulevard, Suite 1200, Irving, Texas 75039, Attn: Terri L. McKinney, or call 1-800-967-9009, and such copies will be provided promptly. The Trusts will begin sending individual copies of such documents within 30 days after receiving your notification. If you received a Proxy Statement for each shareholder at your address and would like to receive a single copy of proxy statements, or the Funds' Annual and Semi-Annual Shareholder Reports in the future, please contact the Manager as instructed above.

***How Proxies Will Be Voted***

Shareholders of record at the close of business on the Record Date will be entitled to vote at the Meeting. The individuals named as proxies on the enclosed proxy cards will vote in accordance with your directions as indicated thereon if your proxy card is received and has been properly executed. If your proxy card is properly executed and you give no voting instructions, your shares will be voted in favor of each nominee set forth in the Proposal. Proxies for the Proposal marked "Withheld" with respect to one or more nominees will not be counted for or against such nominee(s) and will accordingly have no effect on the vote.

[Back to **Table of Contents**](#toc)

The duly appointed proxies may, in their discretion, vote upon such other matters as may properly come before the Meeting. However, if the Funds have received a shareholder proposal to be presented to shareholders at the Meeting within a reasonable time before the proxy solicitation is made, the duly appointed proxies do not have discretionary authority to vote upon such proposal. You may revoke your proxy card at any time prior to its exercise by giving a later-dated proxy card, by written notice revoking your initial proxy prior to the Meeting, or by attending and voting in person at the Meeting. Any letter of revocation or later-dated proxy card must be received by the Trusts at 220 East Las Colinas Boulevard, Suite 1200, Irving, Texas 75039, Attn: Chairman, prior to the Meeting. Proxies voted by telephone or Internet may be revoked at any time before they are voted at the Meeting in the same manner that proxies voted by mail may be revoked. If you hold your shares through a financial intermediary and plan to vote at the meeting, or would like to revoke your proxy, please contact your financial intermediary to do so.

The number of shares of each class of each Fund issued and outstanding, and the dollar value of these shares, as of the Record Date is included in **<u>Appendix A</u>**. A list of shareholders who owned of record, or were known by a Trust to own beneficially, five percent (5%) or more of the shares of a class of a Fund as of the Record Date is included in **<u>Appendix B</u>**, as well as information regarding Trustee and officer ownership of Fund shares. The Trusts will request broker-dealers, custodians, nominees and fiduciaries to forward proxy materials to the beneficial owners of the shares held of record by such persons. The executive officers and Trustees, as a group, owned more than one percent of the outstanding shares of certain classes of certain Funds as of the Record Date. Information regarding such ownership is included in **<u>Appendix B</u>**. To the knowledge of the Manager, the executive officers and Trustees, as a group, owned less than one percent of the outstanding shares of all other classes of the Funds as of the Record Date. In addition, the Manager has no knowledge of any purchases or sales exceeding 1% of any class of the outstanding securities of the Manager or its parent companies, or subsidiaries of either, or any sub-advisors to the Funds, or their parent companies, or subsidiaries of either, by any Trustees, or nominees for election as Trustees, of the Trusts since the beginning of the Funds' most recent fiscal years ended June 30, 2024, August 31, 2024, October 31, 2024, December 31, 2024, and January 31, 2025.

***Required Vote***

Approval of the Proposal requires a plurality vote of the relevant Trust's votes cast in person or by proxy. Each nominee will be elected as a Trustee of the applicable Trust if he or she receives a plurality of the votes cast with respect to each Trust, voting separately from shareholders of each other Trust, when a quorum is present. A vote of a "plurality" of votes cast means that a nominee would only need to receive more "yes" votes than a competing candidate to be elected to the Board. Since each nominee is running unopposed, each nominee effectively needs only one vote to be elected if a quorum is present at the Meeting. The approval of any nominee is not contingent on the approval of the other nominees.

**PRINCIPAL UNDERWRITER AND OTHER SERVICE PROVIDERS**

Resolute Investment Distributors, Inc., located at 220 East Las Colinas Boulevard, Suite 1200, Irving, Texas 75039, serves as the principal underwriter for the Beacon Trust and the American

**INFORMATION ON THE TRUSTS' INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC**

**ACCOUNTING FIRM**

The Trusts' financial statements for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2024, August 31, 2024, October 31, 2024, December 31, 2024, and January 31, 2025, were audited by PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP ("PwC"), which is located at 101 Seaport Blvd., Suite 500, Boston, MA 02210. PwC has informed the Trusts that it has no material direct or indirect financial interest in any of the Funds and that investments in the Funds by its personnel and their family members are prohibited where appropriate to maintaining the auditors' independence. In the opinion of the Board, the services provided by PwC are compatible with maintaining the independence of the auditors. The Board appointed PwC as the independent accountants for each Trust for the respective fiscal years ending June 30, 2025, August 31, 2025, October 31, 2025, December 31, 2025, and January 31, 2026.

Representatives of PwC are not expected to be present at the Meeting but have been given the opportunity to make a statement if they so desire and will be available should any matter arise requiring their presence.

The Trusts have engaged PwC to perform audit services, audit-related services, tax services and/or other services during the past two fiscal years. "Audit services" refer to performing an audit of the Trusts' annual financial statements or services that are normally provided by the accountant in connection with statutory and regulatory filings or engagements for those fiscal years. "Audit-related services" refer to the assurance and related services by the principal accountant that are reasonably related to the performance of the audit and are not reported under "Audit Fees." "Tax services" refer to professional services rendered by the principal accountant for tax compliance, tax advice, and tax planning. "Other services" refer to all other fees not reported under "Audit Fees," "Audit-Related Fees" and "Tax Fees." This category would consist of services related to internal control reviews, strategy, and other consulting, financial information systems design and implementation, consulting on other information systems, and other tax services unrelated to a Trust. The following table details the aggregate fees billed for each of the last two fiscal years for audit fees, audit-related fees, tax fees, and all other fees by PwC.

*Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures*

 

Pursuant to its charter, the Trusts' Audit and Compliance Committee shall have the following duties and powers pertaining to pre-approval of audit and non-audit services provided by the Trusts' principal accountant:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• to
 approve, prior to appointment, the engagement of auditors to annually audit and provide their
 opinion on the Trusts' financial statements, and, in connection therewith, reviewing
 and evaluating matters potentially affecting the independence and capabilities of the auditors;

**SHAREHOLDER PROPOSALS**

The Trusts are not required to hold annual meetings of shareholders and do not intend to hold meetings of shareholders unless so required by applicable law, regulation or regulatory policy. Therefore, it is not practicable to specify a date by which proposals must be received in order to be incorporated in an upcoming proxy statement for a meeting of shareholders. Shareholders wishing to submit proposals for inclusion in a proxy statement for a subsequent shareholders' meeting should send their written proposals to their Fund at 220 East Las Colinas Boulevard, Suite 1200, Irving, Texas 75039, Attn: Terri McKinney, so as to be received a reasonable time before a Trust begins to print and send its proxy materials. Shareholder proposals that are submitted in a timely manner will not necessarily be included in a Trust's proxy materials. Inclusion of such proposals is subject to limitations under the federal securities laws. In addition, the Trusts are each required to convene a special shareholders' meeting for the purpose of removing one or more Trustees upon written request for such a meeting by their respective shareholders representing at least ten percent of the net asset value (in dollars) of the outstanding shares entitled to vote.

[Back to **Table of Contents**](#toc)

**OTHER BUSINESS**

The Manager knows of no business to be presented to the Meeting other than the matters set forth in this Proxy Statement, but should any other matter requiring a vote of shareholders arise, the proxies will vote thereon according to their best judgment and in the best interests of the Funds.
