NOTICE: SPECIAL MEETING OF SHAREHOLDERS
TO BE ADJOURNED TO JANUARY 30, 1998
Dear Shareholder:
Several months ago you were mailed proxy material for the Special Meeting of
Shareholders scheduled to be held on July 31, 1997. Due to a lack of shareholder
participation, the meeting has been adjourned until January 30, 1998, in order
to give you additional time to vote. Contrary to many shareholders' belief, all
votes are vital no matter how many shares you hold and YOUR SHARES CANNOT BE
REPRESENTED UNLESS WE RECEIVE VOTING INSTRUCTIONS FROM YOU! In order for your
shares to be represented, you need to vote on or before FRIDAY, JANUARY 30,
1998.
The main objective of the Special Meeting is to consider a proposal by the Board
of Directors to reorganize each Fund of the Riverfront Funds, Inc. from a
separate series of a Maryland corporation to a separate series of The Riverfront
Funds, an Ohio business trust. Each successor Fund will have the same investment
objectives, policies and limitations as those of its corresponding Fund.
The Directors of The Riverfront Funds, Inc. have determined that Ohio law as it
relates to business trusts affords certain advantages to the operations of
mutual funds that are unavailable to mutual funds organized as corporations
under Maryland law.
THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS HAS UNANIMOUSLY APPROVED THE REORGANIZATION.
For your convenience we have established two easy methods to vote your shares:
o BY FAX: Send your executed proxy to us at 800-733-1885 anytime.
o BY MAIL: Return your executed proxy in the enclosed postage paid
envelope.
If you have any questions regarding the meeting agenda or the execution of the
proxy ballot please call 1-800-733-8481 Ext. 434. Representatives will be
available Monday through Friday between the hours of 9:00 a.m. and 11 p.m.
eastern time.
We urge you to act promptly in order to obtain a sufficient number of votes to
hold the meeting as scheduled and avoid the additional expenses incurred by the
Fund for further meeting adjournments.
Thank you for your support and participation.
