Re: TRUST FOR PROFESSIONAL MANAGERS
Request for Withdrawal of Amendments to a Registration Statement
(File Nos. 333-62298 and 811-10401)
Dear Sir or Madam:
Pursuant to Rule 477 of Regulation C under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), Trust for Professional Managers (the “Registrant”), on behalf of the Minimum Return Fund based on the S&P 500® (Subject to a Financial Guarantee from MBIA Insurance Corporation with Respect to Minimum Redemption Value in 2017) (the “Fund”), respectfully applies to the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) for consent to the withdrawal of Post-Effective Amendment No. 69 on Form N-1A originally filed on September 28, 2007 (Accession No. 0000894189-07-002910) and all subsequent post-effective amendment filings associated with the Fund (the “Amendments”).
The Registrant filed the following subsequent Post-Effective Amendments:
Post-Effective Amendment No. | Filing Date | Accession Number |
76 | December 7, 2007 | 0000894189-07-003578 |
80 | January 10, 2008 | 0000894189-08-000073 |
81 | January 29, 2008 | 0000894189-08-000320 |
82 | February 22, 2008 | 0000894189-08-000535 |
83 | March 24, 2008 | 0000894189-08-001095 |
85 | April 24, 2008 | 0000894189-08-001291 |
The Registrant represents that no securities have or will be sold under the Amendments. The Registrant is making this application for withdrawal of the Amendments because it has determined not to proceed with the registration of the Fund.
If you have any questions regarding this request, please do not hesitate to contact Kristin M. Cuene, Esq. at (414) 765-5348.
Very truly yours,
TRUST FOR PROFESSIONAL MANAGERS
