In the last few days, you should have received a proxy statement and letter proposing the pending liquidation of the Bailard, Biehl & Kaiser Diversa Fund. PleaseWe would appreciate it if you would give this your immediate attention andby returning your signed proxy statement to the Fund as soon as possible.
The recommendation to liquidate Diversa was a difficult decision for us but we are excited about an alternative service option available to you. The primary reason for creating the Diversa Fund was to find a way to make available our diversified investment strategy to smaller individual accounts. Our new service, the Bailard, Biehl & Kaiser Managed Individual Flexible Account or "MI-Flex" Program, was also developed with this in mind. This program offers professional portfolio management in a cost effective and efficient manner. Should shareholders decide to proceed with Diversa's liquidation, we would like to recommend that you consider this program as an alternative.
The MI-Flex Program is designed to provide active management, flexibility and customization on an individual account basis. Bailard, Biehl and Kaiser will manage your individual account and you will have access to our high quality investment research and large scale trading efficiencies. The MI-Flex program gives you the ability to choose between several investment strategies, allows for some portfolio customization and provides for greater individual tax management. Other benefits include lower costs and real-time access to your account. You will be able to view your account holdings, portfolio valuations and performance online. Many of these benefits are not available in traditional mutual funds.
We would like the opportunity to discuss this exciting new program with you in greater detail and will be calling to set up a meeting in the near future. Should you have any questions beforehand, please do not hesitate to call us at 1-800-224-5273.
Sincerely,
Burnice E. Sparks Jr.
