Proposal: Approval Of New Fund Investment Management Agreement Reflecting New Ownership of FEG and FEG Investors, LLC (the investment manager).
| · | The fund sent you proxy materials to register your vote for the Special Meeting of Shareholders to be held on November 28, 2017. I am calling to ask for your vote regarding the proposal. The Board of Directors of the Fund has recommended you vote yes on the proposal. |
| · | On September 15, 2017, Fund Evaluation Group Employee Stock Ownership Trust, a voting trust administered by Argent Trust Company as trustee, acquired Fund Evaluation Group 2017, Inc., the indirect parent company of the Fund’s investment manager, FEG Investors, LLC. The transaction resulted in an “assignment” and therefore a termination of, the previous investment management agreement between Fund Evaluation Group and the Fund. In order for the Fund to continue receiving uninterrupted investment management services, the Fund’s members will need to vote on the proposal described herein to approve a new investment management agreement on behalf of the Fund. |
| · | The Board of Directors of the Fund approved a proposed new investment management agreement on September 11, 2017. The Board also approved an interim management agreement, which became effective upon consummation of the transaction. The Interim Management Agreement provides that, effective for up to 150 days following the date of the consummation of the transaction (September 15, 2017), and until approval of the New Management Agreement, FEG will continue to act as investment manager to the Fund on identical terms and with the identical fee structure as under the Prior Management Agreement. The Board seeks to obtain the approval from the Fund’s members of the new investment management agreement. |
| · | The terms of the Fund, including management fees, its investment objective and policies will not change as a result of the new investment management agreement. The value of your investment will not change. The costs associated with holding shares of the Fund will remain the same. The new investment management agreement contains identical terms and conditions as the previous investment management agreement. FEG, through its employees, will continue in its role in providing day-to-day investment management services to the Fund. The board of directors will remain the same. |
| · | You may return the enclosed proxy/voting instruction card by mail, fax or email, as set forth within the proxy documents. You are also welcome to attend the special meeting in person on November 28, 2017 at noon Eastern Time at FEG’s headquarters (201 E. Fifth Street, Suite 1600, Cincinnati, OH 45202). |
| · | Any expenses related to solicitation of this proxy will be borne in full by FEG, not the Fund or its investors. |
