Dear Valued Partner,
On October 1, 2013, we announced that RCS Capital Corporation (NYSE: RCAP) entered into an agreement to acquire the Hatteras Funds Group, a group of affiliated companies that manage and distribute the Hatteras Funds family. The acquisition is subject to multiple approvals, including shareholder approval that will be solicited through a proxy.
Over the last several weeks proxy information was sent to you and your clients requesting your vote on important proposals affecting your Fund. For many of Hatteras’ Funds, the Special Meeting which convened on January 21, 2014 was successful and the proxy solicitation for these Funds has since closed. However, a few Funds did not achieve the required number of votes to establish quorum and have been adjourned to a Special Meeting on February 21, 2014.
As we approach the next Special Meeting on February 21, it is necessary for us to take additional steps to secure the vote requirement. Beginning Wednesday, January 29th, the Fund’s proxy service company, AST Fund Solutions, will begin calling investors, who have not yet voted, to assist them in placing their vote. We assure you that investors will be removed from the call list as soon as their vote has been registered or they have indicated to the proxy solicitor that they wish to abstain. Once the voting requirement has been achieved, all efforts to reach investors will cease.
If your clients would like to contact AST Fund Solutions to place their vote, please call AST at 800.591.8238. AST’s hours of operation are Monday – Friday, 9:00 am – 10:00 pm Eastern.
If you have voting rights on behalf of your clients’ investments, we would be pleased to provide you with the information necessary to vote on their behalf. Please e-mail your request as soon as possible.
We thank you for your patience as we work through this process and truly appreciate your efforts on our behalf. Please don’t hesitate to call us with your questions at 866.388.6292.
Sincerely,
J. Michael Fields, CAIA
Chief Operating Officer
