Dear Shareholder:

We recently sent you proxy materials concerning important proposals affecting your fund(s), which will be considered a Meeting of Shareholders of the funds on January 16, 2026 at 2:00 p.m., Central Time. This letter was sent because you held shares in the fund(s) on the record date and we have not received your vote.

Your vote is very important. We encourage you as a shareholder to participate in your fund’s governance by returning your vote as soon as possible. If enough shareholders fail to cast their votes, a fund may not be able to hold its Meeting or the vote on the proposals and will be required to incur additional solicitation costs in order to obtain sufficient shareholder participation. Because your vote is critical, our outreach to you will continue until there is sufficient voting.
