WE NEED YOUR HELP

May 6, 2021

Dear Shareholder,

We need your help. Recently we sent to you proxy materials for the upcoming June 2nd special meeting of shareholders of JOHCM Funds. As an investor in one or more of the Funds, it is very important to the business of the Funds that we receive your proxy voting instructions. Our records indicate that we have not yet received your proxy vote. We set up the voting methods listed below for your convenience.

PLEASE take a moment to cast your vote TODAY. We hope to avoid any

further costs associated with following up on this matter.

As discussed in more detail in the proxy statement sent to you via hard copy or e-delivery, shareholders of JOHCM Funds are being asked to consider and vote to approve the proposed Reorganizations to merge each Target Fund into its corresponding Acquiring Fund, which has an identical or substantially identical investment objective and substantially similar investment strategies and policies to those of its respective Target Fund. The existing portfolio management team for each Target Fund will continue to handle the day-to-day portfolio management for the corresponding Acquiring Fund. There are no increases in fees in connection with these proposals. The Board of Trustees recommends that shareholders vote “FOR” the proposal.

For more information, please refer to the proxy statement, which can be found at vote.proxyonline.com/johcm/docs/2021.pdf    If you have any proxy related questions, or would like to cast your proxy vote by phone, please call 1-800-398-1247 for assistance.
