INTRODUCTION
The Manager is the investment manager to each series of the Trusts, including the Funds. Pursuant to “manager of managers” authority, the Manager, subject to approval by the Board, is permitted to hire, terminate, or replace sub-advisors who are affiliated or unaffiliated with the Trusts or the Manager, and to enter into and modify material terms and conditions of the related sub-advisory agreements without shareholder approval. Section 15(a) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”), generally requires that the shareholders of a mutual fund approve an agreement pursuant to which a person serves as investment advisor or sub-advisor of the fund. In order to use the “manager of managers” authority discussed above, the Manager, the Trusts, and certain affiliates requested and received an exemptive order from the SEC on Jan. 17, 2017 (the “SEC Order”). The SEC Order exempts the Manager, the Trusts and other affiliates from certain of the shareholder approval requirements of Section 15(a) of the 1940 Act and allows the Board, subject to certain conditions, to appoint new sub-advisors and approve new sub-advisory agreements on behalf of the Trusts without shareholder approval. The Manager has ultimate responsibility (subject to oversight by the Board) to supervise the sub-advisors and recommend the hiring, termination, and replacement of the sub-advisors to the Board.
Consistent with the terms of the SEC Order, the Board, including a majority of the Trustees who are not “interested persons” of the Trusts or of the Manager (the “Independent Trustees”), approved the appointment of Macquarie Investment Management Global Limited (“MIMGL”) and Macquarie Funds Management Hong Kong Limited (“MFMHKL”) to provide certain sub-advisory services to the Funds (each, a “Sub-Advisor” and collectively, the “Sub-Advisors”). MIMGL and MFMHKL are affiliates of the Manager. The sub-advisory agreements between each of MIMGL and MFMHKL, and DMC, on behalf of the Funds (the “Sub-Advisory Agreements”), are described in further detail below.
The Trusts and the Manager have agreed to comply with certain conditions when acting in reliance on the relief granted in the SEC Order. These conditions require, among other things, that, within ninety (90) days of hiring a new sub-advisor, the affected fund will notify the shareholders of the fund of the changes. The Notice provides such notice of the changes and this Joint Information Statement presents additional details regarding MIMGL and MFMHKL and the Sub-Advisory Agreements.
THE INVESTMENT MANAGER
The Manager is located at 2005 Market Street, Philadelphia, PA 19103-7094, and is a series of Macquarie Investment Management Business Trust, which is an indirect subsidiary of Macquarie Management Holdings, Inc. (“MMHI”), which in turn is an indirect subsidiary, and subject to the ultimate control, of Macquarie Group Limited (“Macquarie”). The Manager is registered as an investment advisor with the SEC under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended.
The Manager provides investment advisory services to the Funds pursuant to an investment management agreement dated Jan. 4, 2010 between the Trusts and the Manager (the “Management Agreement”). The Management Agreement was most recently renewed by the Board, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, at a meeting on Aug. 16, 2018. The Trusts employ the Manager to generally manage the investment and reinvestment of the assets of the Funds. In so doing, the Manager may hire one or more sub-advisors to carry out the investment program of the Funds, subject to the approval of the Board. The Manager continuously reviews and supervises the investment program of the Funds. The Manager furnishes regular reports to the Board regarding the investment program and performance of the Funds.
Pursuant to the Management Agreement, the Manager has full discretion and responsibility, subject to the overall supervision of the Board, to select and contract with one or more investment sub-advisors, to manage the investment operations and composition of the Funds, and to render investment advice for the Funds, including the purchase, retention, and disposition of investments, securities and cash held by the Funds. The Management Agreement obligates the Manager to implement decisions with respect to the allocation or reallocation of each Fund’s assets among one or more current or additional sub-advisors, and to monitor the sub-advisors’ compliance with the Funds’ investment objective(s), policies, and restrictions. Under the Management Agreement, the Trusts will bear the expenses of conducting its business. In addition, the Manager pays the salaries of all officers and Trustees of the Trusts who are officers, directors, or employees of the Manager or its affiliates.
As compensation for the services rendered under the Investment Management Agreement, the Funds shall pay the Manager an annual management fee as a percentage of average daily net assets as described in Exhibit A. During the last fiscal year for each of the Funds, the Funds paid investment management fees to the Manager as described in Exhibit B.

There will be no increase in the advisory fees paid by the Funds to the Manager as a consequence of the appointment of MIMGL and the implementation of the Sub-Advisory Agreement. The Sub-Advisory Agreement between MIMGL and the Manager is effective May 30, 2019.

APPROVAL OF APPOINTMENT OF MIMGL AND MFMHKL AS SUB-ADVISORS TO THE FUNDS
The Sub-Advisory Agreements were approved by the Board. Under the Sub-Advisory Agreements, and in accordance with applicable laws and regulations, MIMGL and MFMHKL agree to provide the Manager with all books and records relating to the transactions it executes and render for presentation to the Board such reports as the Board may reasonably request. The Sub-Advisory Agreements provide that the fees are set at zero (0).
The Sub-Advisory Agreements may be terminated at any time, without the payment of a penalty, by: (i) the Manager with written notice to MIMGL and/or MFMHKL; (ii) the Trusts pursuant to action by the Board or pursuant to the vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Funds, with written notice to MIMGL and/or MFMHKL; or (iii) MIMGL or MFMHKL with written notice to the Manager and the Trusts, each on not less than 60 days’ notice to the required parties.
The Sub-Advisory Agreements provide that, in the absence of willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence or reckless disregard in the performance of its duties, each of MIMGL or MFMHKL, any of their affiliates, or any of their controlling persons, members, officers, directors, employees or agents, will not be liable for any action or omission connected with rendering services, or for any losses that may be sustained in connection with its activities as Sub-Advisor to the Funds.
THE MANAGER’S RECOMMENDATION AND THE BOARD’S CONSIDERATIONS
At a meeting held on May 16-17, 2018, the Board, including the Independent Trustees, approved the Sub-Advisory Agreements between DMC and each of MIMGL and MFMHKL for the Funds.
In reaching the decision to approve the Sub-Advisory Agreements, the Board considered and reviewed information about each of MIMGL and MFMHKL, including its personnel, operations, and financial condition, which had been provided by MIMGL and MFMHKL, respectively. The Board also reviewed material furnished by DMC, including: a memorandum from DMC reviewing the Sub-Advisory Agreements and the various services proposed to be rendered by MIMGL and MFMHKL; information concerning MIMGL’s and MFMHKL’s organizational structure and the experience of their key investment management personnel; copies of MIMGL’s and MFMHKL’s Form ADV, financial statements, compliance policies and procedures, and Codes of Ethics; relevant performance information provided with respect to MIMGL and MFMHKL; and a copy of the Sub-Advisory Agreements.
In considering such information and materials, the Independent Trustees received assistance and advice from and met separately with independent counsel. The materials prepared by the Manager in connection with the approval of the Sub-Advisory Agreements were sent to the Independent Trustees in advance of the meeting. While attention was given to all information furnished, the following discusses some primary factors relevant to the Board’s decision. This discussion of the information and factors considered by the Board (as well as the discussion above) is not intended to be exhaustive, but rather summarizes certain factors considered by the Board. In view of the wide variety of factors considered, the Board did not, unless otherwise noted, find it practicable to quantify or otherwise assign relative weights to the following factors. In addition, individual Trustees may have assigned different weights to various factors.
Nature, quality, and extent of services.The Board considered the nature, quality, and extent of services that MIMGL and MFMHKL each would provide as a Sub-Advisor to the Funds. The Board considered the investment process to be employed by MIMGL and MFMHKL in connection with DMC’s collaboration with MIMGL and MFMHKL in managing the Funds, and the qualifications and experience of MIMGL and MFMHKL’s equity teams with regard to implementing the Funds’ investment mandate. The Board considered MIMGL and MFMHKL’s organization, personnel, and operations. The Board also considered the Manager’s review and recommendation process with respect to MIMGL and MFMHKL, and the Manager’s favorable assessment as to the nature, quality, and extent of the sub-advisory services expected to be provided by MIMGL and MFMHKL to the Funds. Based on their consideration and review of the foregoing factors, the Board concluded that the nature, quality, and extent of the sub-advisory services to be provided by MIMGL and MFMHKL, as well as MIMGL and MFMHKL’s ability to render such services based on its experience, organization and resources, were appropriate for the Funds, in light of the Funds’ investment objectives, strategies, and policies.
In discussing the nature of the services proposed to be provided by the Sub-Advisors, several Board members observed that, unlike traditional sub-advisors, who make the investment-related decisions with respect to the sub-advised portfolio, the relationship contemplated in this case is limited to access to the additional quantitative investment resources and related technology support of MIMGL and MFMHKL.
Sub-advisory fees.The Board considered that DMC would not pay MIMGL and MFMHKL fees in conjunction with the services that would be rendered to the sub-advised Funds. The Board concluded that, in light of the quality and extent of the services to be provided and the business relationships between the Manager and Sub-Advisors, the proposed fee arrangement was understandable and reasonable.
Investment performance.In evaluating performance, the Board considered that MIMGL and MFMHKL would provide trade execution support, but that DMC’s portfolio managers for the Funds would retain portfolio management discretion over the Funds.
Economies of scale and fall-out benefits.The Board considered whether the proposed fee arrangement would reflect economies of scale for the benefit of Fund investors as assets in the Funds increased, as applicable. The Board also considered that DMC and its affiliates may benefit by marketing a global approach to the portfolio management of its equity investment strategies.
