Ladies and Gentlemen:
Enclosed herewith for filing on behalf of the above-referenced registered investment companies (the “Funds”) is a preliminary proxy statement for use in connection with a joint special meeting of the shareholders of each of the Funds.
At the special meeting, which the Funds plan to hold on June 15, 2012, the shareholders of each Fund will be asked to approve new investment advisory agreements with Rochdale Investment Management, LLC. Additionally, shareholders of certain of the Funds will be asked to approve new subadvisory agreements related to those Funds.
Please note that when these Funds have filed combined proxy statements in the past, they have on occasion been reviewed by multiple examiners, resulting in multiple sets of comments. The Funds respectfully request that the Commission Staff’s review be consolidated so that the Funds will only need to respond to one set of comments.
Please do not hesitate to contact the undersigned at 215-772-7598 with any questions or comments that you may have with respect to this preliminary proxy statement.
Very truly yours,
Laura Anne Corsell, Esq.
