IMPORTANT! PLEASE DO NOT DISREGARD THIS LETTER
SPECIAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS ADJOURNED DUE TO QUORUM REQUIREMENTS
Dear Shareholder:
We have been trying to reach you regarding the special meeting of shareholders for the above-mentioned Funds (the “Funds”). The meeting, which was originally scheduled for December 21st 2020, has now adjourned for a SECOND time until February 11, 2021 due to inadequate shareholder participation. We did not reach a quorum for the adjourned meeting, and noted that we haven’t yet received your vote. We would not impose on you with this letter unless we absolutely needed your participation to reach the quorum necessary to hold the meeting.
Will you please help us? Your participation may allow us to avoid future additional and costly adjournments and solicitations.
Shareholders are being asked to vote on the following proposal:
| | | | |
Proposal 1: | | To approve the Sub-investment Advisory Agreement with Barrow, Hanley, Mewhinney & Strauss, LLC for its services to the Fund. | | |
An overwhelming majority of the votes received have been cast in favor of the proposals, however a quorum of the shares entitled to vote has not yet been achieved for your Fund (s), and without a quorum, we cannot move forward.
The Board of Trustees recommends that you vote “FOR” the Proposal.
However, even if you simply cast an Abstain vote, which is neither for nor against the proposal, but is only registered for purposes of quorum, it would be a great help. The proxy statement is available online www.OkapiVote.com/TPBarrow.
In order for your vote to be represented, we must receive your voting instructions. EVEN IF IT IS PAST THE INDICATED MEETING DATE, PLEASE SUBMIT YOUR VOTE TODAY. For your convenience, please use any of the following methods to submit your vote:
Follow the simple instructions on the enclosed proxy card.
Call the toll-free number located on your proxy card and follow the simple instructions.
If you have any questions, please call Okapi Partners, our proxy solicitor, toll-free at 877-566-1922.
Representatives are available Monday - Friday 9:00am to 7:00pm (ET).
