VOTING IS QUICK AND EASY

Dear Shareholder:

We recently sent you proxy materials concerning an important proposal regarding your investment, which will be considered at the Special Meeting of Shareholders on September 27, 2022, at 1:00 p.m. (MST). The meeting will be held in a virtual format only. Instructions for attending the virtual meeting are detailed in the proxy statement previously sent to you. This letter was sent to you because you held shares on the record date and we have not received your vote.

Your vote is critical to this process. Please vote prior to the Special Meeting on September 27, 2022.

Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter. If you have already voted, we appreciate your participation.

Dina Santoro

President
