Dear Valued RidgeWorth Shareholder:
You are a valued member of the RidgeWorth Funds family and we need your vote. The RidgeWorth Funds’ Special Shareholder Meeting that was scheduled for May 9, 2017 has been adjourned to May 30, 2017. The purpose of the meeting is for shareholders to vote on the reorganization of their respective RidgeWorth Fund(s) into the Virtus Asset Trust. Your vote is critical to helping us reach quorum so that the reorganizations can occur.
The Board of Trustees of the RidgeWorth Funds unanimously recommends a vote “FOR” the proposals. ISS Governance Services and Glass, Lewis & Co. LLC, two independent proxy advisory firms, have also issued favorable recommendations and recommend that shareholders vote in favor of these proposals.
