     This joint proxy statement (the “Proxy Statement”) solicits proxies to be voted at a Joint Special Meeting of Shareholders (the “Meeting”) of the registered open-end management investment companies listed above (each, a “Trust” and collectively, the “Trusts”), along with other funds in the Delaware Investments Family of Funds, each of which is issuing proxy solicitation materials. Each of the separate funds within a Trust is referred to as a “Fund” and all of the Funds are collectively referred to as the “Funds.” The Meeting was called by the Boards of Trustees of the Trusts (each, a “Board” and collectively, the “Boards”) to vote on the following proposals, each of which is described more fully below:

	Proposal	Who votes on the proposal?

     The principal offices of the Trusts are located at 2005 Market Street, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 19103. You can reach the offices of the Trusts by telephone by calling (800) 523-1918. Each Trust is a Delaware statutory trust registered as an open-end management investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). A list of the Funds of each Trust is set forth in Appendix A.

1      Solely on behalf of Delaware REIT Fund (also known as The Real Estate Investment Trust Portfolio), a series of Delaware Pooled Trust.

     The Meeting will be held at the offices of Stradley Ronon Stevens & Young, 2005 Market Street, 21^st Floor, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 19103 on November 12, 2009, at 3:00 p.m., Eastern time. The Boards, on behalf of each Fund, are soliciting these proxies. This Proxy Statement will first be sent to shareholders on or about September [21], 2009.

     This Proxy Statement gives you information about the Trustees, the new advisory agreement, and other matters that you should know before voting. The Board of each Trust has determined that the joint use of this Proxy Statement for the Meeting is in the best interests of each Fund and its shareholders in light of the similar matters being considered and voted on by the shareholders of all of the Funds.

     Each Fund’s annual report to shareholders is sent to shareholders of record following the Fund’s fiscal year end. Each Fund will furnish, without charge, a copy of its most recent annual report and most recent succeeding semiannual report, if any, to a shareholder upon request. Such requests should be directed to a Fund by calling 800 523-1918 or by writing to the Fund at Attention: Account Services, P.O. Box 219691, Kansas City, MO 64121-9691 by regular mail or 430 W. 7th Street, Kansas City, MO 64105 by overnight courier service.

     Two or more shareholders of a Fund who share an address might receive only one annual report or Proxy Statement, unless the Fund has received instructions to the contrary. Each Fund will promptly send a separate copy of such documents to any shareholder upon request. To request a separate copy of an annual report or the Proxy Statement, shareholders should contact their Fund at the address and phone number set forth above.

PROPOSAL 1: TO ELECT A BOARD OF TRUSTEES

Introduction to Proposal 1

     In Proposal 1, shareholders of each Trust are being asked to elect nine Trustees (together, the “Trustee Nominees”) to the Boards. All of the Trustee Nominees are currently members of the Boards.

     Each Trust is governed by a Board, which has oversight responsibility for the management of the Trust’s business affairs. Trustees establish procedures and oversee and review the performance of the investment manager, the distributor, and others who perform services for the Trust. Each Trust has a Board comprised of the same Trustees, and each Trust is served by the same Officers.

Who are the Trustee Nominees?

     The Trustees of the Boards (each, a “Trustee” and collectively, the “Trustees”) are responsible for supervising the management of the Trusts and serving the needs and best interests of Fund shareholders. As noted above, all of the Trustee Nominees standing for election are currently members of the Boards. The nine Trustee Nominees are Thomas L. Bennett, Patrick P. Coyne, John A. Fry, Anthony D. Knerr, Lucinda S. Landreth, Ann R. Leven, Thomas F. Madison, Janet L. Yeomans, and J. Richard Zecher.

4

     Each Board is comprised of the same nine Board members, eight of whom are not “interested persons” of the Trusts, as that term is defined in the 1940 Act (together, the “Independent Trustees”). Only Mr. Coyne is deemed to be an “Interested Trustee” of the Trusts, because he is an executive officer of the Funds’ investment adviser. Appendix B includes a list of the Trustees with certain background and related information.

     If elected, each Trustee Nominee will hold office for an indefinite term until his or her successor is elected and qualified, or until his or her earlier death, resignation, or removal. Each Trustee Nominee currently is available and has consented to serve if elected. If any of the Trustee Nominees should become unavailable before the Meeting, the designated proxy holders will have the authority to vote in their discretion for another person or persons who may be nominated as Trustees. Ann R. Leven serves as Coordinating Trustee for each Trust. Although Mr. Coyne, the Chairman, President, and CEO of the Funds’ investment adviser, currently serves as a Trustee, he is standing for election by Fund shareholders for the first time. Mr. Coyne was appointed to the Boards in 2006, and was recommended for appointment to the Boards by the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, which consists solely of Independent Trustees.

How are Nominees for Trustee Selected?

     Each Board’s Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee recommends Board members, fills vacancies, and considers the qualifications of prospective Board members. The committee also monitors the performance of counsel for the Independent Trustees. The committee will consider shareholder recommendations for Trustee nominations only in the event that there is a vacancy on a Board. Shareholders who wish to submit recommendations for nominations to fill a vacancy on a Board must submit their recommendations in writing to the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, c/o Delaware Investments^® Funds at 2005 Market Street, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 19103-7094. Shareholders should include appropriate information on the background and qualifications of any persons recommended (e.g., a resume), as well as the candidate’s contact information and a written consent from the candidate to serve if nominated and elected. Shareholder recommendations for nominations to a Board will be kept on file for consideration when there is a vacancy on the Board. The committee consists of John A. Fry, Chairman; Anthony D. Knerr; Lucinda S. Landreth; and Ann R. Leven (ex officio), all of whom are Independent Trustees. Each Trust’s Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee held five meetings during the 12-month period ended June 30, 2009. Each Board has adopted and approved a formal written charter for the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, which is attached as Appendix D to this Proxy Statement.

     The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee met on September 3, 2009, to evaluate candidates for positions on the Boards, including evaluating candidates’ qualifications for Board membership and their independence from the Funds’ investment adviser and other affiliates and principal service providers, as well as such other information as the Committee deemed relevant to their considerations. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee recommended the Trustee Nominees for nomination by the Independent Trustees, and at their meeting on September 3, 2009, the Independent Trustees selected and nominated the Trustee Nominees for election by the shareholders of each Trust.

5

How Often Do the Boards Meet and What Are the Trustees Paid?

     Each Board is responsible for establishing its Trust’s policies and for overseeing the management of the Trust. The Boards held six meetings during the 12-month period ended June 30, 2009. Each Trustee Nominee attended at least 75% of the aggregate total number of meetings of the Boards held during each Trust’s last fiscal year, and attended at least 75% of the total number of meetings held during that year by all committees of the Boards on which he or she served. The Trusts do not have a formal policy regarding Trustee attendance at shareholders’ meetings but they encourage Trustees to do so. The Trusts do not hold annual meetings at which Trustees are elected.

     None of the Independent Trustees owns, beneficially or of record, securities issued by any investment adviser or principal underwriter of any of the Funds, or a person directly or indirectly controlling, controlled by, or under common control with any of the foregoing. The table in Appendix E shows the dollar range of shares of the Funds and the aggregate dollar range of shares of the Delaware Investments Family of Funds that are beneficially owned by each Trustee Nominee as of June 30, 2009.

     Each Independent Trustee is compensated by the Trusts. Mr. Coyne, the sole Trustee who is not an Independent Trustee, is not compensated by the Trusts for serving as Trustee. Trust officers are not compensated by the Trust. The table in Appendix F shows the amount of compensation that each Trustee received from each Trust during the 12-month period ended June 30, 2009, and the aggregate amount of compensation that each Trustee received from the Delaware Investments Family of Funds during that period.  In addition, the Independent Trustees received separate compensation form the Trusts for the meetings held in connection with their review of the transaction described under Proposal 2 below.

Who are the Principal Officers of the Trust?

     Officers of each Trust are appointed by the Trust’s Board and serve at the pleasure of the Board. Appendix C to this Proxy Statement identifies the principal officers of the Trusts, and provides the officers’ names, birth dates, addresses, positions and length of service with the Trusts, and principal occupations during the past five years.

What are the Standing Committees of the Board?

     Each Trust’s Board has four standing committees: the Audit Committee, the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, the Independent Trustees Committee, and the Investments Committee.

Audit Committee. This committee monitors accounting and financial reporting policies and practices and internal controls for a Trust. It also oversees the quality and objectivity of a Trust’s financial statements and the independent audit thereof, and acts as a liaison between the Trust’s independent registered public accounting firm and the full Board. Each Trust’s Audit Committee consists of the following Independent Trustees: Thomas F. Madison, Chairman; Thomas L. Bennett; John A. Fry; and J. Richard Zecher. Each Trust’s Audit Committee held six meetings during the 12-month period ended June 30, 2009.

6

Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee. Information on the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is provided above under “How are Nominees for Trustee Selected?”

Independent Trustees Committee. This committee develops and recommends to the Boards a set of corporate governance principles and oversees the evaluation of the Boards, the committees, and Board activities. The committee is comprised of all of the Independent Trustees. Each Trust’s Independent Trustees Committee held four meetings during the 12-month period ended June 30, 2009.

Investments Committee. The primary purposes of the Investments Committee are to: (i) assist the Boards, upon request, in oversight of the investment advisory services provided to the Funds by their investment adviser as well as any sub-advisers; (ii) review all proposed advisory and sub-advisory agreements for new Funds or proposed amendments to existing agreements and to recommend what action the full Boards and the Independent Trustees should take regarding the approval of all such proposed agreements; and (iii) review from time to time reports supplied by the Funds’ investment adviser regarding investment performance and expenses and suggest changes to such reports. Each Board’s Investments Committee consists of the following Independent Trustees: Thomas L. Bennett, Chairman; Anthony D. Knerr; Lucinda S. Landreth; Ann R. Leven (ex officio); Janet L. Yeomans; and J. Richard Zecher. Each Investments Committee held four meetings during the 12-month period ended June 30, 2009.

Who are the Trusts’ Independent Auditors?

Selection of Auditors. For each Trust, the Audit Committee and the Board have selected the firm of Ernst & Young LLP (“E&Y”) to serve as the Funds’ independent registered public accounting firm. Representatives of E&Y are not expected to be present at the Meeting, but will be available to answer any questions or if otherwise necessary.

Audit Fees. Appendix G shows for each Trust the aggregate fees billed for each of the last two fiscal years for professional services rendered by E&Y for the audit of the Trust’s annual financial statements and for review of the financial statements included in the Trust’s annual reports or for services that normally are provided by E&Y in connection with statutory and regulatory filings or engagements for those fiscal years.

Audit-Related Fees. No Trust was billed during its last two fiscal years for assurance and related services rendered by E&Y that were reasonably related to the audit or review of the Trust’s financial statements but where such services were not reported under “Audit Fees” above. Appendix G shows for the last two fiscal years of each Trust the aggregate fees billed by E&Y for providing such services to the Funds’ investment adviser or other service providers that are under common control with the Funds’ investment adviser. These services included the issuance of reports concerning the Funds’ transfer agent’s system of internal accounting control pursuant to Rule 17Ad-13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

Tax Fees. Appendix G also shows for each Trust the aggregate fees billed in each of the last two fiscal years for professional services rendered by E&Y to the Trust for tax compliance, tax advice, and tax planning. E&Y did not during any Trust’s last two fiscal years provide any such

7

services to the Funds’ investment adviser or other service providers under common control with the Funds’ investment adviser. The tax-related services provided to the Trusts included the review of income tax returns and annual excise distribution calculations and, for certain of the Trusts, tax compliance services with respect to investments in foreign securities.

Aggregate Non-Audit Fees. Appendix G also shows, for each Trust’s last two fiscal years, the aggregate non-audit fees billed by E&Y for services rendered to the Trust, its investment adviser, and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with its investment adviser that provides ongoing services to the Trust.

     For each Trust, the Audit Committee has considered whether the provision of non-audit services that were rendered to the Trust’s investment adviser, and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the Trust’s investment adviser that provides ongoing services to the Trust, is compatible with maintaining the independence of E&Y. The Audit Committee has determined that E&Y’s provision of these services is compatible with maintaining E&Y’s independence. E&Y currently is analyzing whether its independence will be affected after the transaction described in Proposal 2 as a result of services provided by E&Y to Macquarie Group Limited and its affiliates.

All Other Fees. There were no additional fees paid by any Trust or to the Funds’ investment adviser or other service providers under common control with the Funds’ investment adviser during such Trust’s last two fiscal years for products and services provided by E&Y, other than the services reported above.

Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures. Each Trust’s Audit Committee has adopted Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures, which are set forth in Appendix H to this Proxy Statement. All of the fees disclosed above were pre-approved pursuant to the Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures. The Audit Committee for each Trust did not approve any of the services described above pursuant to the de minimis exceptions set forth in Rule 2-01(c)(7)(1)(C) and Rule 2-01(c)(7)(ii) of Regulation S-X.

What is the Required Vote to Elect Trustees?

     Provided that “Quorum” requirements (as defined below in “Voting Information”) have been satisfied, the Trustee Nominees will be elected to the Board of each Trust by the affirmative vote of a plurality of votes cast collectively by shareholders of all of the Funds of such Trust. This means that the nine Trustee Nominees receiving the largest number of votes will be elected. For a Trust that is made up of more than one Fund, the votes of all the Funds of that Trust will be counted together in determining the results of the voting for Proposal 1.

8

PROPOSAL 2: TO APPROVE A NEW INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT

     In Proposal 2, you are being asked to approve a new investment advisory agreement between your Fund and Delaware Management Company (“DMC”) (each, a “New Investment Advisory Agreement”). DMC currently serves as investment adviser for each Fund, but, for the reasons discussed below, a new investment advisory agreement will be required if the Transaction is completed. For a general description of the proposed New Investment Advisory Agreements and a general comparison of the proposed New Investment Advisory Agreements and the investment advisory agreements currently in effect for each Fund (each, a “Current Investment Advisory Agreement”), see “The New Investment Advisory Agreements” below. The form of the New Investment Advisory Agreements is included in Appendix I. The date of each Fund’s Current Investment Advisory Agreement and the date on which it was last approved by shareholders and approved for continuance by the Board are provided in Appendix J.

     The Boards are proposing New Investment Advisory Agreements because the Current Investment Advisory Agreements will terminate upon completion of the Transaction, which is defined and discussed below. As required by the 1940 Act, each Current Investment Advisory Agreement terminates automatically upon its “assignment.” Under the 1940 Act, a change in control of an investment adviser constitutes an “assignment.” The consummation of the Transaction will result in a change of control of DMC, and thus, the assignment and automatic termination of the Current Investment Advisory Agreements. Shareholders of each Fund are therefore being asked to approve a New Investment Advisory Agreement for their Fund. Each New Investment Advisory Agreement would become effective only if approved by the shareholders of the applicable Fund and if the Transaction is completed. While the closing of the Transaction (the “Closing”) is currently expected to take place on or about December 31, 2009, if the Transaction is not completed or the Transaction Agreement (as hereinafter defined) is terminated, the New Investment Advisory Agreements will not go into effect and the Current Investment Advisory Agreements will continue in effect.

Description of the Transaction

     Lincoln National Corporation (“LNC”) and its indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary, Lincoln National Investment Companies, Inc. (“LNIC”) entered into a definitive agreement (the “Transaction Agreement”), dated as of August 18, 2009, with Macquarie Bank Limited, whereby LNIC will sell all of the capital stock of Delaware Management Holdings, Inc. (“DMHI”) to Macquarie Bank Limited (the “Transaction”). Certain Fund service providers are subsidiaries of DMHI and will be included in the Transaction, including DMC, Delaware Service Company, Inc. (“DSC”), the fund accounting and financial administration oversight provider for the Funds, and Delaware Distributors, L.P. (“DDLP”), the principal underwriter for the Funds. DMHI and its various affiliates are sometimes referred to herein as “Delaware Investments.”

     Macquarie Group Limited and its various subsidiaries (including Macquarie Bank Limited) are referred to herein as “Macquarie Group.” The Transaction Agreement requires Macquarie Bank Limited to pay LNC approximately $428 million in cash at the Closing to acquire DMHI and its subsidiaries, such amount subject to certain specified closing adjustments

9

at and after the Closing. As noted above, the Closing is currently expected to take place on or about December 31, 2009. The Closing is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of customary closing conditions, including (i) annualized advisory fees payable to DMC by all clients that have consented to the assignment of their advisory agreements or approved a new advisory agreement (including the Trusts) not being less than 75% of annualized advisory fees payable to DMC as of April 30, 2009 and (ii) the parties obtaining certain domestic and international regulatory approvals (including expiration of the required waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976, as amended).

     DMC manages the assets of each Fund and makes each Fund’s investment decisions, subject to the supervision of the Board of each Trust. DMC is a series of Delaware Management Business Trust (“DMBT”), which is a subsidiary of DMHI. Delaware Investments is the marketing name for DMHI and its subsidiaries.

Australian Banking Regulations require the following disclaimer to be made:
Investments in the Funds are not and will not be deposits with or liabilities of Macquarie Bank Limited ABN 46 008 583 542 and its holding companies including their subsidiaries or related companies, and are subject to investment risk, including possible delays in repayment and loss of income and capital invested. No Macquarie Group company guarantees or will guarantee the performance of any Fund, the repayment of capital from any Fund, or any particular rate of return.

     The Transaction is part of Macquarie Group’s strategy to develop a global asset management capability through building a highly regarded team of investment professionals, offering an attractive suite of investment products and gaining broader access to markets in the United States. Macquarie Group values DMC’s focus on the advisory segment of the U.S. market, its significant investment management capabilities, and its experienced management team. The Transaction is not expected to result in a change in the persons responsible for the day-to-day management of the Funds or in the operation of the Funds.

     It is currently anticipated that following the closing of the Transaction, DMHI, DMC, DDLP, and DSC will continue to operate, and the Funds will continue to operate, and the Delaware brand will remain with the business. Upon completion of the Transaction, the combined assets under management of Macquarie Group and DMHI and their affiliates are expected to be over $300 billion. After the Transaction, DMHI and its subsidiaries (including DMC) will remain headquartered in Philadelphia. Investment management professionals serving DMC’s clients are not expected to change as a result of the Transaction. Clients of DMC may be offered opportunities to invest in new products with access to Macquarie Group’s investment strategies, notably in real assets, global fixed income securities, and alternative investments. Macquarie Group clients across its global network may be offered investment products involving Delaware’s investment strategies, in structures designed specifically for them. Macquarie Group also currently anticipates providing additional funding to support the growth of DMC and its affiliates, for example through potential investment in operations and distribution and a commitment to expanding its multi-boutique approach.

     In anticipation of the Transaction, the Boards have had a number of telephonic and in-person meetings and met both formally and in informational sessions between April 16, 2009, and September 3, 2009, for purposes of, among other things, considering whether it would be in the best interests of each Fund and its shareholders to approve a New Investment Advisory Agreement. The 1940 Act requires that each Fund’s New Investment Advisory Agreement be approved by the Fund’s shareholders in order to become effective. At the in-person meetings held on September 3, 2009, and for the reasons discussed below (see “Board Considerations in Approving the New Investment Advisory Agreements” below), each Board, including a majority of its Independent Trustees, approved the New Investment Advisory Agreements as being in the best interests of the Funds and their shareholders and recommended their approval by shareholders. In the event shareholders of a Fund do not approve a New Investment Advisory Agreement, the Fund’s Board will take such action as it deems to be in the best interests of the Fund and its shareholders, including entering into an interim advisory agreement with DMC pursuant to Rule 15a-4 of the 1940 Act.

The New Investment Advisory Agreements

     Each Fund’s New Investment Advisory Agreement will be substantially similar to its Current Investment Advisory Agreement. Appendix I includes a form of the New Investment Advisory Agreement. A discussion of the basis for a Board’s approval of each Fund’s Current Investment Advisory Agreement is available in the Fund’s most recent annual or semi-annual report to shareholders. Appendix J provides information on the Current Investment Advisory Agreements, including their dates, date of last shareholder approval, the reason for the most recent submission to shareholders, and the rates the Funds pay for fund administrative services. Exhibit A to Appendix I discloses the rate of compensation of DMC under both the Current Investment Advisory Agreement and the New Investment Advisory Agreement. Appendix K describes for each Fund the aggregate amount of DMC’s fee and the amount and purpose of any other material payments to DMC (including any affiliated person of DMC) for services provided to each Fund during the last fiscal year of the Fund. These services will continue to be provided if the New Investment Advisory Agreements are approved. DMC provides investment advisory services to certain other funds that have investment objectives and policies similar to those of the Funds. Appendix K lists such other mutual funds advised by DMC, the net assets of those funds, and the management fee schedule pursuant to which DMC received advisory fees from those funds during the fiscal years ended on the dates noted.

Fees. There will be no change in the fee schedule applicable to any Fund under its New Investment Advisory Agreement. All currently effective contractual fee waivers or reimbursements will remain in place after the Transaction until the end of their respective terms, and Macquarie Group has no present intention to cause DMC to alter any voluntary expense waivers or reimbursements currently in effect for the Funds.

Investment Advisory Services. Each New Investment Advisory Agreement requires DMC to provide the same services to the applicable Funds as it does under the corresponding Current Investment Advisory Agreement. Each Fund’s New Investment Advisory Agreement generally provides that, subject to the direction and control of the Fund’s Board, DMC shall (i) regularly make decisions as to what securities and other instruments to purchase and sell on behalf of the Fund; (ii) effect the purchase and sale of those investments in furtherance of the Fund’s objectives and policies; and (iii) furnish the Board with information and reports regarding the Fund’s investments as DMC deems appropriate or as the Board may reasonably request.

     Subject to the primary objective of obtaining best execution, DMC may place orders for the purchase and sale of portfolio securities and other instruments with broker/dealers that provide statistical, factual, or financial information and services to a Fund, to DMC, or to other clients of DMC.

     Both the Current and New Investment Advisory Agreement for each Fund provide that the services of DMC are not exclusive to the Fund, and DMC and its affiliates may render services to others.

     The New Investment Advisory Agreements provide that DMC may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, appoint at its own expense one or more sub-advisers, including affiliates of DMC, to perform investment advisory services for the Fund. DMC may terminate a

12

sub-adviser in its sole discretion at any time to the extent permitted by applicable law. A similar provision is included in the Current Investment Advisory Agreements.

Fund Administration Services. DMC and Macquarie Group have advised the Boards that they anticipate and intend that the nature and level of administrative services provided to the Funds under their Current Investment Advisory Agreements, in combination with any administrative services agreements, will not be diminished as a result of the Transaction or the implementation of the New Investment Advisory Agreements. In addition, any fees for administrative services, whether payable under a Current Investment Advisory Agreement or a separate administrative agreement, will not increase as a direct result of the Transaction or the New Investment Advisory Agreement.

Payment of Expenses. The provisions contained in each Fund’s New Investment Advisory Agreement addressing allocation of expenses is substantially similar in all material respects to those contained in that Fund’s Current Investment Advisory Agreement. Both the Current and New Investment Advisory Agreements provide that each Fund is responsible for its own expenses, including costs incurred in the maintenance of a Fund’s corporate existence; the maintenance of the Fund’s books, records and procedures; dealing with the Fund’s shareholders; the payment of dividends; transfer of shares, including issuance, redemption and repurchase of shares; preparation of share certificates; reports and notices to shareholders; calling and holding of shareholders’ meetings; miscellaneous office expenses; brokerage commissions; custodian fees; legal and accounting fees; taxes; and federal and state registration fees. In addition, to avoid uncertainty, certain other expenses that are paid by the Funds under the Current Investment Advisory Agreement are listed expressly as Fund expenses in the New Investment Advisory Agreement. These expenses include auditing, fund accounting and financial administration fees, and other costs and expenses approved by the Board. Except as expressly provided for in the Current and New Investment Advisory Agreements, DMC is not responsible for a Fund’s expenses.

     Directors, officers, and employees of DMC may be Trustees and officers of the Trusts, but directors, officers, and employees of DMC who are Trustees, officers and/or employees of the Trusts do not receive any compensation from the Trusts for acting in a dual capacity. DMC may share facilities common to each Fund, which may include legal and accounting personnel, with appropriate proration of expenses between the applicable Fund and DMC.

Limitation on Liability. Under the Current and New Investment Advisory Agreements, in the absence of willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence, or a reckless disregard of the performance of its duties as the investment adviser to a Fund, DMC shall not be liable to a Fund or to any shareholder for any action or omission arising in the course of, or connected with, rendering its services under the Agreement or for any losses arising from the purchase, holding or sale of any security, or otherwise.

Term and Continuance. If approved by shareholders of a Fund, the New Investment Advisory Agreement for the Fund will terminate two years from the date of implementation, and will continue in effect from year to year if its continuance is specifically approved at least annually by both (i) the vote of a majority of the Fund’s Board or the vote of a 1940 Act Majority (as defined below) of the outstanding voting securities of the Fund and (ii) the vote of a majority of

13

the Independent Trustees cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on the approval. The Current Investment Advisory Agreements have similar provisions for their term and continuance, although the initial dates of the Agreements differ.  The initial two year period has elapsed for most of the Current Investment Advisory Agreements.  Each of the Current Investment Advisory Agreements was most recently approved by each Fund’s Board in May 2009.

     A “1940 Act Majority” of the outstanding voting securities of a Fund means the lesser of (i) 67% or more of the voting securities of the Fund that are present in person or by proxy at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on the approval if holders of shares representing more than 50% of the outstanding voting securities of the Fund are present in person or by proxy or (ii) more than 50% of the outstanding voting securities of the Fund.

Termination. Each Fund’s New Investment Advisory Agreement generally provides that the Agreement may be terminated at any time, without the payment of any penalty, by the Fund upon giving DMC 60 days’ written notice, provided that the termination by the Fund is directed or approved by the vote of a majority of the Fund’s Board or by the vote of a 1940 Act Majority of the Fund’s outstanding voting securities. The New Investment Advisory Agreements may also be terminated by DMC on 60 days’ written notice. As required by the 1940 Act, each New Investment Advisory Agreement will also immediately terminate in the event of its “assignment” (as defined in the 1940 Act). The Current Investment Advisory Agreements contain similar termination provisions.

Proxy Voting. Each Fund’s New Investment Advisory Agreement provides explicitly that DMC shall be responsible for voting proxies of portfolio securities of each Fund, a service currently provided by DMC but not provided for explicitly in the Current Investment Advisory Agreement.

Amendments. To incorporate explicitly the requirements of the 1940 Act, each Fund’s New Investment Advisory Agreement provides that it may not be amended without a shareholder vote and a vote of the Independent Trustees, but that it may be amended without shareholder approval if the amendment relates solely to a change for which applicable laws and regulations do not require shareholder approval. Each Fund’s Current Investment Advisory Agreement does not contain a similar provision.

Other Changes. Each Fund’s New Investment Advisory Agreement conforms the Current Investment Advisory Agreement with currently applicable laws and regulations and includes a number of minor wording changes that clarify non-material ambiguities in the Current Investment Advisory Agreement.

Additional Information about DMC

     Appendix L provides the name, address and principal occupation of each executive officer and each trustee of DMC, and each individual who is an officer or Trustee of the Trusts and who is also an officer, employee or shareholder of DMC. The following Trustee Nominee and executive officers of the Trusts may receive a portion of the consideration described above as a result of the accelerated vesting of equity interests (the “Equity Interests”) in Delaware

14

Investments U.S., Inc. (“DIUS”), a subsidiary of DMHI and indirect parent of DMC, brought about by the Transaction: Patrick P. Coyne ____%; Michael J. Hogan ____%; See Yeng Quek ____%; Brian L. Murray, Jr. ____%; David P. O’Connor ____%; and Richard Salus ____%. ____%. See Appendix L for a list of the executive officer positions with the Trusts of each of the above named individuals. Generally, the Equity Interests will be fully vested and may be put back to DIUS or called by DIUS not later than thirteen months following the closing of the Transaction. The holders of the Equity Interests will only obtain a portion of the consideration described above if they put their vested Equity Interests back to DIUS or their Equity Interests is called by DIUS, and the dollar value of the Equity Interests will be ascertained at the time of the put or call, as the case may be. Certain other officers of DMC who are also officers of the Trusts own or hold vested or unvested stock or options on stock of LNC.

Board Considerations in Approving the New Investment Advisory Agreements

     At an in-person meeting held on September 3, 2009, the Boards, including the Independent Trustees, discussed and unanimously approved the New Investment Advisory Agreement between each Fund and DMC. Concluding that approval of the New Investment Advisory Agreement would be in the best interests of each Fund and its shareholders, the Boards also directed that each New Investment Advisory Agreement be submitted to the applicable Fund shareholders for approval, and recommended that shareholders vote “FOR” approval of each New Investment Advisory Agreement.

     Prior to their approval of the New Investment Advisory Agreement between each Fund and DMC, pursuant to letters from their independent legal counsel addressed to Macquarie Group and DMC, the Trustees requested extensive materials about the Transaction and matters related to the proposed approvals. To assist the Boards in considering the New Investment Advisory Agreements, Macquarie Group provided materials and information about Macquarie Group, including detailed written responses to the questions posed to it by the Independent Trustees. DMC also provided materials and information about the Transaction, including detailed written responses to the questions posed to it by the Independent Trustees.

     The Coordinating Trustee and the Chair of each committee of the Boards, together with their independent legal counsel and Fund counsel, met with representatives of DMC and Macquarie Group to discuss the Transaction in very preliminary terms. Thereafter, the Independent Trustees, together with their independent legal counsel and Fund counsel, participated in a combination of four separate in-person meetings and telephone conference calls with representatives of DMC and Macquarie Group. In addition, meetings in person or by telephone were held between management of DMC and certain Independent Trustees on four occasions during the months preceding the Board’s in-person meeting. At these meetings and on these telephone calls, the Transaction and future plans for DMC and the Funds were discussed at length. Finally, the Independent Trustees consulted with their independent legal counsel in executive sessions on numerous occasions during the time period covered by the negotiation of the Transaction and discussed, among other things, the legal standards applicable to their review of the New Investment Advisory Agreements and certain other contracts and considerations relevant to their deliberations on whether to approve such New Investment Advisory Agreements.

     At the in-person meetings and telephonic conference calls, the Trustees discussed the Transaction with DMC management and with key Macquarie Group representatives. The meetings included discussions of the strategic rationale for the Transaction as discussed above under “Description of the Transaction,” and Macquarie Group’s general plans and intentions regarding the Funds and DMC. On these occasions, representatives of DMC and Macquarie Group made presentations to and responded to questions from the Trustees. The Board members also inquired about the plans for, and anticipated roles and responsibilities of, key employees and officers of DMHI and DMC in connection with the Transaction.

15

     In connection with the Trustees’ review of the New Investment Advisory Agreements, DMC and/or Macquarie Group emphasized that:

• Macquarie Group and DMC have assured the Trustees that there will be no adverse changes in the nature, quality, or extent of services currently provided to the Funds and their shareholders, including investment management, distribution, or other shareholder services.
  
• No material changes in personnel or operations are contemplated in the operation of DMC under Macquarie Group as a result of the Transaction and no material changes are currently contemplated in connection with third party service providers to the Funds.
  
• Macquarie Group has no present intention to cause DMC to alter the voluntary expense waivers and reimbursements currently in effect for the Funds and, therefore, the advisory and administrative fees would not increase by virtue of the Transaction or the New Advisory Agreements.
  
• Under the Transaction Agreement, Macquarie Group has agreed to conduct, and use reasonable best efforts to cause its affiliates to conduct, their respective businesses in compliance with the conditions of Section 15(f) of the 1940 Act with respect to the Funds, including maintaining Board composition of at least 75% of the Board members qualifying as Independent Trustees and not imposing any “unfair burden” on the Funds for at least two years from the Closing.

     In addition to the information provided by DMC and Macquarie Group as described above, the Trustees also considered all other factors they believed to be relevant to evaluating the New Advisory Agreements, including the specific matters discussed below. In their deliberations, the Trustees did not identify any particular information that was controlling, and different Trustees may have attributed different weights to the various factors. However, for each Fund, the Trustees determined that the overall arrangements between the Fund and DMC, as provided in the New Advisory Agreements, including the proposed advisory fee and the related administration arrangements between the Funds and DMC, were fair and reasonable in light of the services to be performed, expenses incurred and such other matters as the Trustees considered relevant. Factors evaluated included:

• The potential for expanding distribution of Fund shares through access to Macquarie Group’s existing distribution channels as well as the strengthening of Delaware Investments’ distribution capabilities through the acquisition of an exclusive wholesaling sales force from LNC.
  
• The reputation, financial strength, and resources of Macquarie Group as well as its historic and ongoing commitment to the asset management business in Australia as well as other parts of the world.
  
• The terms and conditions of the New Investment Advisory Agreements, including that each Fund’s total fees will not increase as a result of the New Investment Advisory Agreements, but rather will remain the same. (See “The New Investment Advisory Agreements” above).

16

• At its in-person meeting in May 2009, each Board had performed a full annual review of, or initially approved, the Current Investment Advisory Agreement as required by the 1940 Act and determined that DMC has the capabilities, resources, and personnel necessary to provide the advisory and administrative services currently provided to each Fund. Each Board also determined that the advisory and/or management fees paid by each Fund, taking into account any applicable fee waivers and breakpoints, represent reasonable compensation to DMC in light of the services provided, the costs to DMC of providing those services, economies of scale, and the fees and other expenses paid by similar funds (including information provided by Lipper Inc. (“Lipper”, an independent statistical compilation organization) and such other matters that the Boards considered relevant in the exercise of their reasonable judgment.
  
• The portfolio management teams for the Funds would not change as a result of the Transaction.
  
• LNC and Macquarie Group executed an agreement with the Trusts pursuant to which LNC and Macquarie Group have agreed to pay all expenses of the Funds in connection with the Boards’ consideration of the Transaction, the New Investment Advisory Agreements and related agreements, and all costs related to this proxy solicitation. The agreement also provides for indemnification by LNC or Macquarie Group, as applicable, of the Funds and the Trustees for any losses arising from claims that certain information provided by LNC or Macquarie Group for this Proxy Statement is untrue or misleading.  As a result, the Funds will bear no costs in evaluating the Transaction or seeking or obtaining shareholder approval of the New Investment Advisory Agreements.
  
• The likelihood that Macquarie Group would invest in DMC, resulting in potential benefits to the Funds and the shareholders, including the possibility of increased assets under management which would allow some Funds the potential opportunity to achieve economies of scale and lower fees.
  
• The compliance and regulatory history of Macquarie Group and its affiliates.
  

  Certain of these considerations are discussed in more detail below.

     In making its decision relating to the approval of each Fund’s New Investment Advisory Agreement, the Independent Trustees gave attention to all information furnished, however, the following discussion identifies the primary factors taken into account by the Trustees in approving the New Investment Advisory Agreements.

       Nature, Extent, and Quality of Service. The Trustees considered the services historically provided by DMC to the Funds and their shareholders. In reviewing the nature, extent, and quality of services, the Boards considered that the New Investment Advisory Agreements will be substantially similar to the Current Investment Advisory Agreements (as discussed under "The New Investment Advisory Agreements"), and therefore, considered the many reports furnished to them throughout the 2008 and 2009 at regular Board meetings covering matters such as the relative performance of the Funds; compliance of portfolio managers with the investment policies, strategies, and restrictions for the Funds; the compliance of management personnel with the Code of Ethics adopted throughout the Delaware Investments^® Family of Funds complex; and the adherence to fair value pricing procedures as established by the Boards. The Trustees were pleased with the current staffing of DMC and the emphasis placed on research

17

and risk management in the investment process. Favorable consideration was given to DMC’s efforts to maintain expenditures and, in some instances, increase financial and human resources committed to Fund matters. The Boards also considered the transfer agent and shareholder services that would continue to be provided to Fund shareholders by DMC’s affiliate, Delaware Service Company, Inc. (“DSC”). The Board routinely reviews and has been impressed by DSC’s performance. The Trustees noted, in particular, DSC’s commitment to maintain a high level of service as well as DMC’s expenditures to improve the delivery of shareholder services. The Boards were assured that shareholders would continue to receive the benefits provided to Fund shareholders by being part of the Delaware Investments Family of Funds, including each shareholder’s ability to exchange an investment in one Delaware Investments Fund for the same class of shares in another Delaware Investments Fund without a sales charge, to reinvest Fund dividends into additional shares of any of the Funds, and the privilege to combine holdings in other Funds to obtain a reduced sales charge. For the foregoing reasons, the Boards were satisfied with the nature, extent, and quality of the overall services provided by DMC.

     Investment Performance. The Trustees considered the overall investment performance of DMC and the Funds. The Trustees placed significant emphasis on the investment performance of the Funds in view of its importance to shareholders. Although the Trustees give appropriate consideration to performance reports and discussions with portfolio managers at Board meetings throughout the year, the Trustees gave particular weight to the approval of the Current Investment Advisory Agreements at the in-person meeting in May 2009. At that meeting, the Trustees reviewed Lipper reports prepared for each Fund showing the investment performance in comparison to a group of funds selected by Lipper as being similar to such Fund (the “Performance Universe”). A fund with the best performance ranked first, and a fund with the poorest, ranked last. The highest/best performing 25% of funds in the Performance Universe make up the first quartile; the next 25% make up the second quartile; the next 25% make up the third quartile; and the poorest/worst performing 25% of funds in the Performance Universe make up the fourth quartile. Comparative annualized performance for each Fund was shown for the past 1-, 3 , 5-, and 10-year periods. The Boards’ objective was that each Fund’s performance for the periods considered be at or above the median of its Performance Universe.

     During the May 2009 agreement review process, the Trustees observed the significant improvements to relative investment performance of the funds in the Delaware Investments Family of Funds compared to the information presented at the May 2008 meeting. At their meeting on September 3, 2009, the Trustees examined the investment performance of all of the funds in the Delaware Investments Family of Funds and compared the performance of each fund in the Delaware Investments Family of Funds relative to that of its respective peer group for the 1-, 3 , 5-, and 10-year periods ended June 30, 2009 against the corresponding relative investment performance of the Funds for such time periods ended December 31, 2008. As of June 30, 2009, 29 of the funds in the Delaware Investments Family of Funds had investment performance relative to that of the respective peer groups that was as good as or better than the corresponding relative investment performance at December 31, 2008 for all four time periods. At June 30, 2009, an additional 9 funds in the Delaware Investments Family of Funds had investment performance relative to that of their respective peer group that was better than the corresponding relative investment performance at December 31, 2008 for three of the four time periods. At June 30, 2009, 19 additional funds in the Delaware Investments Family of Funds had investment performance relative to that of their respective peer group that was approximately the same as that of the corresponding relative performance at December 31, 2008 and only 22 funds in the Delaware Investments Family of Funds had poorer relative investment performance at June 30, 2009 compared to that at December 31, 2008. The Trustees, therefore, concluded that investment performance of the funds in the Delaware Investments Family of Funds on an aggregate basis had continued to improve relative to their respective peer groups since the data reviewed at the May 2009 meeting. The Trustees also noted that the proposed continuity of DMC’s operations after the Transaction would be expected to mitigate any adverse impact on Fund performance arising from the Transaction.

     Comparative Expenses. The Trustees also evaluated expense comparison data for the Delaware Investments^® Family of Funds previously considered in May 2009. At that meeting, DMC had provided the Boards with information on pricing levels and fee structures for the Funds and comparative funds. The Trustees focused on the comparative analysis of the effective management fees and total expense ratios of each Fund versus the effective management fees and expense ratios of a group of funds selected by Lipper as being similar to each Fund (the “Expense Group”). In reviewing comparative costs, each Fund’s contractual management fee and the actual management fee incurred by the Fund were compared with the

18

contractual management fees (assuming all funds in the Expense Group were similar in size to the Fund) and actual management fees (as reported by each fund) of other funds within the Expense Group, taking into account any applicable breakpoints and fee waivers. Each Fund’s total expenses were also compared with those of its Expense Group. The Trustees also considered fees paid to Delaware Investments for non-management services. The Trustees' objective was for each Fund’s total expense ratio to be competitive with that of the Expense Group. At the September 3, 2009 meeting, the Boards noted that the more recent comparative expenses for the Funds remained consistent with the previous review in May 2009. The Boards were assured that there was no current intention to change DMC’s existing voluntary expense waivers and reimbursement policy as a result of the Transaction, and that, consistent with Section 15(f) of the 1940 Act, no “unfair burden” would be imposed on the Funds for the first two years after the closing of the Transaction.

     Management Profitability. The Boards once again considered the level of profits realized by DMC in connection with the operation of the Funds. The Boards previously considered the level of profits realized by DMC in connection with the operation of the Funds at their May 2009 meeting. At that meeting, the Boards reviewed the Investment Management Profitability Analysis addressing the overall profitability of Delaware Investments’ business in providing management and other services to each of the Funds and the Delaware Investments Family of Funds as a whole. Specific attention was given to the methodology followed in allocating costs for the purpose of determining profitability.

At the May 2009 meeting, representatives of DMC had stated that the level of profits of DMC, to a certain extent, reflect operational cost savings and efficiencies initiated by Delaware Investments (including DMC and its affiliates that provide services to the Funds). The Boards considered Delaware Investments’ efforts to improve services provided to Fund shareholders, to meet additional regulatory and compliance requirements resulting from recent industry-wide SEC initiatives and the extent to which Delaware Investments might derive ancillary benefits from Fund operations, including the potential for procuring additional business as a result of the prestige and visibility associated with its role as service provider to the Delaware Investments Family of Funds and the benefits from allocation of Fund brokerage to improve trading efficiencies. The Boards found that the management fees were reasonable in light of the services rendered and the level of profitability of DMC. At the September 3, 2009 meeting, DMC advised the Boards that DMC did not expect the Transaction to affect materially the profitability of Delaware Investments compared to the level of profitability considered during the May 2009 review. The Boards also noted Macquarie Group’s commitment to maintain sufficient capitalization of DMC and Delaware Investments to continue the same level and quality of services to the Funds.

     Economies of Scale. The Trustees considered whether economies of scale would be realized by Delaware Investments as each Fund’s assets increase and the extent to which any economies of scale would be reflected in the management fees charged. The Trustees took into account DMC's practice of maintaining the competitive nature of management fees based on its benchmarking analysis for the Funds. Management believed, and the Boards agreed, that the Funds were priced with relatively low management fees to reflect potential economies of scale up front. The Boards also acknowledged Macquarie Group’s statement that the Transaction would not by itself immediately provide additional economies of scale given Macquarie Group’s limited presence in the U.S. mutual fund market. Nonetheless, the Trustees believed that additional economies of scale could potentially be achieved in the future if DMC were owned

19

by Macquarie Group as a result of Macquarie Group’s willingness to invest further in DMC’s asset management business, particularly with respect to distribution.

Fall-Out Benefits. The Trustees considered that DMC would continue to benefit from soft dollar arrangements using portfolio brokerage of each Fund that invests in equity securities. They reviewed information about practices with respect to allocating portfolio brokerage for brokerage and research services. The Trustees recognized that DMC’s profitability would be somewhat lower without these benefits. The Trustees noted that DMC may derive reputational and other benefits from their association with each Fund.

     Other Board Considerations. As previously noted at the May 2009 meeting, the Boards separately received and reviewed independent historical and comparative reports prepared by Lipper. The Lipper reports compared each Fund’s investment performance and expenses with those of other comparable mutual funds in the peer group. The Independent Trustees discussed such reports with independent legal counsel at the meeting. The Boards requested and received certain information regarding the policies of DMC with respect to advisory fee levels and its philosophy with respect to breakpoints; the structure of portfolio manager compensation; DMC’s profitability; as well as any constraints or limitations on the availability of securities in certain investment styles that might inhibit DMC’s ability to invest fully in accordance with Fund policies. At the in-person meeting on September 3, 2009, the Boards noted that there had been no significant changes to the Lipper or other information reported at the May 2009 meeting. The Board was told that the Transaction and Macquarie Group’s acquisition of Delaware Investments would not, by itself, be expected to materially change this information.

     The Transaction. The Trustees received and reviewed the Transaction Agreement. The Trustees considered the purchase price to be paid and noted the conditions for the closing of the Transaction, including the requirements for obtaining consents to the change in control from DMC’s advisory clients, such as the Funds. The Trustees were told that DMC would continue to manage LNC’s general account assets. The Trustees also considered the representations, warranties, and covenants made by the parties to the Transaction, including those related Section 15(f) of the 1940 Act.

     Board Review of Macquarie Group. The Trustees reviewed detailed information supplied by Macquarie Group about its operations as well as other information regarding Macquarie Group provided by their independent legal counsel. By reviewing a pro forma balance sheet of Delaware Investments as of the closing of the Transaction (which was provided by Macquarie Group in response to the Trustees’ request), the Trustees considered Macquarie Group’s projections of Delaware Investments’ capitalization following the Transaction and Delaware Investments’ ability to continue to provide the same level and quality of services to the Funds. The Trustees noted that there would be a transition period during which some services previously provided by LNC to Delaware Investments would be provided by Macquarie Group after the Closing. Macquarie Group described its proposed changes to Delaware Investments’ corporate governance, primarily through the anticipated addition of certain Macquarie Group officers to DMHI’s board of directors and to Delaware Investments’ distribution and product management affiliates.

     The Trustees considered favorably Macquarie Group’s statement that there would be no significant change to the executive, administrative, investment or support staff of Delaware Investments. Macquarie Group described the proposed harmonization of the compensation system in use at Delaware Investments with the compensation plan used by Macquarie Group,

including short-term and long-term incentive compensation and equity interests for executive officers and investment personnel as well as support staff.  Macquarie Group described its current intention to enhance certain administrative and operation areas of DMC following the Transaction, including information technology, product management, and risk management.

     The Trustees also considered Macquarie Group’s support for Delaware Investments’ plans for Fund distribution by transferring wholesalers from Lincoln Financial Distributors, LNC’s retail distributor, to Delaware Investments and Macquarie Group’s intention to leave the Funds’ other service providers in place.

     Noting that asset management is one of its core businesses, Macquarie Group described for the Boards’ consideration its current strategic plans to grow its asset management activities, particularly in the Northern Hemisphere. The Boards considered Macquarie Group’s representation that the acquisition of DMC is an important component of this strategic growth and the establishment of a significant presence in the United States.

     As a subsidiary of an Australian bank, Delaware Investments would be subject to certain Australian bank regulations following the Transaction. The Boards reviewed material supplied by Macquarie Group describing the new requirements to which Delaware Investments would be subject, including those related to disclosure, fund holdings, affiliated transactions, advisory agreements, and fee waivers. The Boards further considered certain exemptive relief that had been provided to Macquarie Group by the Australian bank regulator in anticipation of the Transaction as well as the nature of future relief that may be required. Macquarie Group represented, and the Boards concurred, that the Australian bank regulatory requirements would not have a material effect on the operations of DMC or the Funds, including DMC’s ability to continue to provide voluntary expense waivers and reimbursements to the Funds or to contribute appropriate levels of seed capital to new Funds.

     The Trustees noted that DMC has placed brokerage transactions with a broker-dealer affiliate of Macquarie Group and received research in connection with those transactions. In addition, certain other Macquarie Group affiliates participate as underwriters for securities offerings outside of the United States. The Boards determined to regularly monitor brokerage transactions with Macquarie Group affiliates for compliance with the requirements of Section 15(f) and Section 17(e) of the 1940 Act, and to ensure compliance with the Funds’ procedures under Rule 10f-3 promulgated under the 1940 Act for offerings in which a Macquarie Group affiliate is a member of the underwriting syndicate.

     Conclusion. The Independent Trustees of each Fund deliberated in executive session; the entire Board of each Fund, including the Independent Trustees, then approved each New Investment Advisory Agreement. The Boards concluded that the advisory fee rate under each New Investment Advisory Agreement is reasonable in relation to the services provided and that execution of the New Investment Advisory Agreement is in the best interests of the shareholders. For each Fund, the Trustees noted that they had concluded in their most recent advisory agreement continuance considerations in May, 2009 that the management fees and total expense ratios were at acceptable levels in light of the quality of services provided to the Funds and in comparison to those of the Funds’ peer group; that the advisory fee would not be increased and would stay the same for all of the Funds; that the total expense ratio had not changed materially since that determination; and that DMC had represented that the overall expenses for each Fund were not expected to be adversely affected by the Transaction. On that basis, the Trustees concluded that the total expense ratio and proposed advisory fee for each such Fund anticipated to result from the Transaction was acceptable. The Trustees also noted, with respect to the Funds that currently had the benefit of voluntary fee waivers, that Macquarie presently intended to continue such waivers. In approving each New Investment Advisory Agreement, each Board stated that it anticipated reviewing the continuance of the agreement in advance of the expiration of the initial two-year period.

21

Required Vote

     To become effective with respect to a particular Fund, the New Investment Advisory Agreement for that Fund must be approved by a 1940 Act Majority vote of the Fund’s outstanding voting securities. The approval of one Fund’s New Investment Advisory Agreement is not contingent on the approval of any other Fund’s New Investment Advisory Agreement. Each New Investment Advisory Agreement was approved separately by the Independent Trustees, and by the Board of the applicable Trust as a whole, after consideration of all factors that it determined to be relevant to its deliberations, including those discussed above. The Board of each Trust also determined to submit each applicable Fund’s New Investment Advisory Agreement for consideration by the shareholders of the Fund. If the shareholders of a Fund do not approve the Fund’s New Investment Advisory Agreement, the Board of such Fund will consider other possible courses of action for the Fund.

FOR THE REASONS DISCUSSED ABOVE, THE BOARD OF
EACH FUND UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE FOR THE
APPROVAL OF THE NEW INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT.

Section 15(f) of the 1940 Act

     The Boards have been advised that the parties intend to rely on Section 15(f) of the 1940 Act, which provides that an owner (such as LNC and LNIC) of an investment adviser (such as DMC) to an investment company (such as a Fund) may receive payment or benefit in connection with the sale of an interest in the investment adviser only if two conditions are satisfied. The first condition is that during the three-year period following the transaction, at least 75% of the investment company’s board must not be “interested persons” (as defined in the 1940 Act) of the investment adviser or its predecessor. Each Fund’s Board currently meets this test and is expected to do so after the Transaction is completed. Second, no “unfair burden” can be imposed on the investment company as a result of the transaction. An “unfair burden” includes any arrangement during the two-year period after the transaction where the investment adviser (or predecessor or successor adviser), or any of its “interested persons” (as defined in the 1940 Act), receive or is entitled to receive any compensation, directly or indirectly, (i) from any person in connection with the purchase or sale of securities or other property to, from or on behalf of the investment company (other than bona fide ordinary compensation as principal underwriter for the investment company) or (ii) from the investment company or its shareholders (other than fees for bona fide investment advisory or other services). Macquarie Group has agreed under the Transaction Agreement that, following the Closing, to the extent within its control, it will not take or fail to take (or cause its affiliates to take or fail to take) any action that would have the effect, directly or indirectly, of causing the requirements of Section 15(f) of the 1940 Act not to be met in respect of the Transaction. In that regard, from and after the Closing date and to the extent within its control, the Macquarie Group has agreed to conduct its business (and to cause each of its affiliates to conduct its business) so as to assure that the two aforementioned conditions are satisfied.

More Information about the Funds

Transfer Agency Services. DSC, 2005 Market Street, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 19103, an affiliate of DMC, acts as the shareholder servicing, dividend disbursing, and transfer agent for the Funds. For its shareholder servicing, dividend disbursing services, and transfer agency services, DSC is paid an annual per account charge of $11.00 for each open account and $6.50 for each closed account on its records and each account held on a sub-accounting system maintained by firms that hold accounts on an omnibus basis. These charges are assessed monthly on a pro rata basis and determined by using the number of shareholder and retirement accounts maintained as of the last calendar day of each month. Compensation is fixed each year and approved by each Board, including a majority of the Independent Trustees.

     DST Systems, Inc. (“DST”), 430 W. 7^th Street, Kansas City, Missouri 64105, provides subtransfer agency services to the Funds. In connection with these services, DST administers the overnight investment of cash pending investment in the Fund or payment of redemptions. The proceeds of this investment program are used to offset the Fund’s transfer agency expenses.

Fund Accountants. The Bank of New York Mellon (“BNY Mellon”), One Wall Street, New York, New York 10286-0001, provides fund accounting and financial administration services to each Fund. Those services include performing functions related to calculating each Fund’s net asset value (“NAV”) and providing financial reporting information, regulatory compliance testing, and other related accounting services. For these services, the Funds pay BNY Mellon an asset-based fee, subject to certain fee minimums plus certain out-of-pocket expenses and transactional charges.

     DSC provides fund accounting and financial administration oversight services to the Funds. Those services include overseeing the Fund’s pricing process, the calculation and payment of fund expenses, and financial reporting in shareholder reports, registration statements and other regulatory filings. DSC also manages the process for the payment of dividends and distributions and the dissemination of Fund NAVs and performance data. For these services, the Funds pay DSC an asset-based fee, plus certain out-of-pocket expenses and transactional charges. The fees payable to BNY Mellon and DSC for the services described above are allocated among all funds in the Delaware Investments^® Family of Funds on a relative NAV basis.

Distribution Services. Pursuant to underwriting agreements relating to each of the Funds, DDLP, 2005 Market Street, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 19103, serves as the national distributor for the Funds. DDLP pays the expenses of the promotion and distribution of the Funds’ shares, except for payments by the Funds on behalf of Class A Shares, Class B Shares, Class C, and Class R Shares, as applicable under their respective 12b-1 Plans. DDLP also receives sales loads in connection with the purchase and redemption of certain classes of shares. DDLP is an indirect subsidiary of DMHI and is an affiliate of DMC.

     Following the Transaction, DDLP will be primarily responsible for promoting the sale of Fund shares through broker/dealers, financial advisors and other financial intermediaries. This function is currently provided by Lincoln Financial Distributors, Inc. (“LFD”), 130 N. Radnor-

23

Chester Road, Radnor, PA 19087-5221, pursuant to a contractual arrangement with DDLP. LFD is owned by LNC and is an affiliate of DDLP and DMC.

     No Fund paid any brokerage commissions for portfolio securities to any broker that is an affiliate (or an affiliate of an affiliate) of the Funds, DMC, DDLP, or DSC during the Fund’s most recently completed fiscal year.

VOTING INFORMATION

How will shareholder voting be handled?

     Only shareholders of record of the Funds at the close of business on September 18, 2009 (the “Record Date”), will be entitled to notice of and to vote at the Meeting on the matters described in this Proxy Statement. Shareholders will be entitled to one vote for each full share and a fractional vote for each fractional share that they hold. If sufficient votes to approve a Proposal for a Fund are not received by the date of the Meeting, the Meeting may be adjourned for that Fund or for that Proposal to permit further solicitations of proxies. The persons named as proxies on the enclosed proxy cards will vote their proxies in accordance with the recommendations of Management on questions of adjournment and any items other than the Proposals that properly come before the Meeting. A majority of the votes cast by shareholders of a Fund present in person or by proxy at the Meeting (whether or not sufficient to constitute a quorum for the Fund) may adjourn the Meeting with respect to that Fund. The Meeting may also be adjourned by the Chairperson of the Meeting.

     Abstentions and broker non-votes will be counted for purposes of determining whether a quorum is present at the Meeting. Abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on Proposal 1 but will have the same effect as a vote “against” Proposal 2. Broker non-votes are proxies from brokers or nominees indicating that they have not received voting instructions from the beneficial owner or other person entitled to vote shares on a particular matter for which the brokers or nominees do not have discretionary authority to vote. This generally occurs only when there is another matter at the meeting for which the brokers or nominees do have discretionary authority to vote, such as Proposal 1.

How do I ensure my vote is accurately recorded?

     You may attend the Meeting and vote in person. You may also vote by completing, signing, and returning the enclosed proxy card in the enclosed postage paid envelope, or by telephone or through the Internet. If you return your signed proxy card or vote by telephone or through the Internet, your vote will be officially cast at the Meeting by the persons appointed as proxies. A proxy card is, in essence, a ballot. If you sign and date the proxy card but give no voting instructions, your shares will be voted in favor of all the Trustee Nominees in Proposal 1 and “For” Proposal 2. Your proxies will also be voted in accordance with the recommendations of Management on any matters that properly come before the Meeting or any adjournment of the Meeting, although management of the Funds does not expect any such matters to come before the Meeting. If your shares are held of record by a broker/dealer and you wish to vote in person at the Meeting, you must obtain a legal proxy from the broker of record and present it at the Meeting.

24

May I revoke my proxy?

     Shareholders may revoke their proxy for a Fund at any time before it is voted by sending a written notice to the Fund expressly revoking their proxy, by signing and forwarding to the Fund a later-dated proxy, or by attending the Meeting and voting in person. If your shares are held in the name of your broker, you will have to make arrangements with your broker to revoke a previously executed proxy and, if you wish to vote in-person at the Meeting, you must obtain a legal proxy from your broker of record and present it at the Meeting.

What other matters will be voted upon at the Meeting?

     The Boards do not intend to bring any matters before the Meeting other than as described in this Proxy Statement. Because this is a Special Meeting, the Boards do not anticipate that any other matters will be brought before the Meeting by others. If any other matter legally comes before the Meeting, proxies for which discretion has been granted will be voted in accordance with the recommendations of Management of each Fund.

Who is entitled to vote?

     Only shareholders of record on the Record Date will be entitled to vote at the Meeting on the matters described in this Proxy Statement. The table in Appendix M shows as of July 31, 2009, as to each class of voting securities of the Funds, the number of shares outstanding.

What is the Quorum Requirement?

     A “Quorum” for a Trust or a particular Fund means one-third (33 1/3%) of the shares of that Trust or Fund that are entitled to vote at the Meeting, present in person or represented by proxy.

Who will pay the expenses of the Meeting?

     Any out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the Funds related to the Meeting, including the costs of preparing proxy solicitation materials and soliciting proxies in connection with the Meeting, will not be borne by the Funds. Macquarie Group and LNC have agreed to bear any such costs and expenses equally as provided in the Transaction Agreement. The Funds have engaged Computershare Fund Services, Inc. (“Computershare”) to solicit proxies from brokers, banks, other institutional holders and individual shareholders at an anticipated cost of approximately $750,000. Fees and expenses may be greater depending on the effort necessary to obtain shareholder votes.  The agreement with Computershare provides that Computershare shall be indemnified against certain liabilities and expenses, including liabilities under the federal securities laws.

What other solicitations will be made?

     This proxy solicitation is being made by the Board of each Fund for use at the Meeting. In addition to solicitations by mail, solicitations also may be made by advertisement, telephone, telegram, facsimile transmission or other electronic media, or personal contacts. The Funds will request broker/dealer firms, custodians, nominees, and fiduciaries to forward proxy materials to the beneficial owners of the shares of record. Reasonable out-of-pocket expenses of broker/dealer firms, custodians, nominees, and fiduciaries for their reasonable expenses incurred

25

in connection with such proxy solicitation will be shared equally by LNC and Macquarie Group as provided above. In addition to solicitations by mail, officers and employees of the Funds, DMC, and their affiliates may, without extra pay, conduct additional solicitations by telephone, telecopy, and personal interviews. The Funds expect that any solicitations will be primarily by mail, but also may include telephone, telecopy, or oral solicitations.

     As the Meeting date approaches, you may receive a telephone call from a representative of Computershare if your votes have not yet been received. Proxies that are obtained telephonically will be recorded in accordance with the procedures described below. These procedures are designed to ensure that both the identity of the shareholder casting the vote and the voting instructions of the shareholder are accurately determined.

     In all cases where a telephonic proxy is solicited, the Computershare representative is required to ask for each shareholder’s full name and address, and to confirm that the shareholder has received the proxy materials in the mail. If the shareholder is a corporation or other entity, the Computershare representative is required to ask for the person’s title and confirmation that the person is authorized to direct the voting of the shares. If the information elicited matches the information previously provided to Computershare, then the Computershare representative has the responsibility to explain the voting process, read the Proposals listed on the proxy card, and ask for the shareholder’s instructions on the Proposals. Although the Computershare representative is permitted to answer questions about the process, he or she is not permitted to recommend to the shareholder how to vote, other than to read any recommendation set forth in this Proxy Statement. Computershare will record the shareholder’s instructions on the card. Within 72 hours, the shareholder will be sent a letter or mailgram to confirm his or her vote and asking the shareholder to call Computershare immediately if his or her instructions are not correctly reflected in the confirmation.

Why did my household receive only one copy of this Proxy Statement?

     Unless you have instructed the Funds not to do so, only one copy of this Proxy Statement will be mailed to multiple Fund shareholders sharing an address (a “Household”), even if more than one shareholder in a Household is a Fund shareholder of record. If you need additional copies of this Proxy Statement, if you do not want the mailing of proxy solicitation materials to be combined with those of other members of your Household in the future, or if you are receiving multiple copies and would rather receive just one copy for the Household, please contact your participating broker-dealer firm or other financial intermediary or, if you hold Fund shares directly with the Funds, you may write to the Funds by regular mail to P.O. Box 219691, Kansas City, MO 64121-9691, by overnight courier service to 430 W. 7th Street, Kansas City, MO 64105, or by calling toll-free 1-800-523-1918.

How do I submit a shareholder proposal for inclusion in a Trust’s proxy statement and form of proxy for a Trust’s next annual meeting?

     The governing instruments of the Trusts do not require that the Funds hold annual meetings of shareholders. Each Fund will, however, be required to call meetings of shareholders in accordance with the requirements of the 1940 Act to seek approval of new or material amendments to advisory arrangements or of a change in the fundamental investment policies,

26

objectives or restrictions of the Funds. Each Fund also would be required to hold an annual shareholders meeting to elect new Trustees at such time as less than a majority of the Trustees holding office have been elected by shareholders. The Trusts’ governing instruments generally provide that a shareholder meeting may be called by a majority of the Trustees, the Chairperson of the Board, the President of the Trust, or on the written request of a specified percentage of the outstanding shares of a Trust (or of a particular Fund if the meeting relates solely to that Fund).

     Shareholders of a Fund wishing to submit proposals for inclusion in a proxy statement for a subsequent shareholder meeting must send their written proposal to that Fund a reasonable time before the Board’s solicitation relating to such meeting is to be made. Shareholder proposals must meet certain legal requirements established by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, so there is no guarantee that a shareholder’s proposal will actually be included in the next proxy statement. The persons named as proxies in future proxy materials of a Fund may exercise discretionary authority with respect to any shareholder proposal presented at any subsequent shareholder meeting if written notice of that proposal has not been received by that Fund a reasonable period of time before the Board’s solicitation relating to such meeting is made. Written proposals with regard to a Fund should be sent to the Secretary of the Fund, David F. Connor, at the address of the Funds given above.

How may I communicate with the Boards?

     Shareholders who wish to communicate to the full Boards may address correspondence to Ann R. Leven, Coordinating Trustee for the Trusts, c/o the applicable Trust at 2005 Market Street, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, 19103. Shareholders may also send correspondence to the Coordinating Trustee or any individual Trustee c/o the applicable Trust at 2005 Market Street, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 19103. Without opening any such correspondence, Trust management will promptly forward all such correspondence to the intended recipient(s).

PRINCIPAL HOLDERS OF SHARES

     As of July 31, 2009, the officers and Trustees of the Trusts, as a group, owned less than 1% of the outstanding voting shares of any Fund or class thereof, except as noted in Appendix N.

     To the best knowledge of the Trusts, as of July 31, 2009, no person, except as set forth in Appendix O, owned of record 5% or more of the outstanding shares of any class of any Fund. Except as noted in Appendix O, the Trusts have no knowledge of beneficial ownership.

APPENDIX D – NOMINATING AND CORPORATE GOVERNANCE COMMITTEE CHARTER

DELAWARE INVESTMENTS FAMILY OF FUNDS

Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee Membership

APPENDIX H - PRE-APPROVAL POLICIES AND PROCEDURES

The Trust’s Audit Committee has adopted Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures, which are set forth below.

AUDIT COMMITTEE OF THE DELAWARE INVESTMENTS FAMILY OF FUNDS

PROCEDURES FOR ENGAGEMENT

OF

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS

FOR AUDIT AND NON-AUDIT SERVICES

I. Objective

These procedures (the “Procedures”) set forth the understanding of the Audit Committee of the Delaware Investments Family of Funds (the “Funds”) regarding the retention of the Funds’ independent auditors (the “Auditors”) to provide: (i) audit and permissible non-audit services to the Funds; (ii) non-audit services to the Funds’ investment advisers, and to any “control affiliates” (as defined below) of such investment advisers, that relate directly to the Funds’ operations or financial reporting; and (iii) certain other non-audit services to the Funds’ investment advisers and their control affiliates. The purpose of these Procedures is to ensure the Auditors’ independence and objectivity with respect to their audit services to the Funds.

II. Approval Procedures

A. Services provided to the Funds.

The engagement of the Auditors to provide audit or non-audit services to the Funds (referred to herein as “Fund Services”) shall be approved by the Funds’ Audit Committee prior to the commencement of any such engagement.

The engagement of the Auditors to provide the Fund Services listed on Annex I-A hereto, which include services customarily required by one or more of the Funds in the ordinary course of their operations, is hereby approved by the Audit Committee.

The engagement of the Auditors to provide any other Fund Services shall require prior approval by the Audit Committee and/or by the Chairperson or another member of the Audit Committee in accordance with Section IV of these Procedures.

The Auditors shall report to the Audit Committee at each of its regular meetings regarding all Fund Services initiated since the last such report was rendered, including a general description of the services and projected fees, and the means by which such Fund Services were approved by the Audit Committee (i.e., whether listed on Annex I-A or specifically approved in accordance with Section IV).

B. Fund-related services provided to Adviser entities.

H-1

The engagement of the Auditors to provide non-audit services to the Funds’ investment advisers, or to any control affiliates of such investment advisers, that relate directly to the Funds’ operations or financial reporting (referred to herein as “Fund-Related Adviser Services”) shall be approved by the Funds’ Audit Committee prior to the commencement of any such engagement. For purposes of these Procedures, the term “control affiliate” means any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with a Fund’s investment adviser that provides ongoing services to a Fund, and the term “investment adviser” is deemed to exclude any unaffiliated sub-adviser whose role is primarily portfolio management and is sub-contracted or overseen by a Fund’s investment adviser. Attached as Annex II is a list of parties deemed to be either an investment adviser to a Fund or a control affiliate of any such investment adviser (collectively referred to herein as “Adviser entities”) for purposes of these Procedures.

The engagement of the Auditors to provide the Fund-Related Adviser Services listed on Annex I-B, which include services customarily required by one or more Adviser entities in the ordinary course of their operations, is hereby approved by the Audit Committee.

The engagement of the Auditors to provide any other Fund-Related Adviser Services shall require prior approval by the Audit Committee and/or by the Chairperson or another member of the Audit Committee in accordance with Section IV of these Procedures.

The Auditors shall report to the Audit Committee at each of its regular meetings regarding all Fund-Related Adviser Services initiated since the last such report was rendered, including a general description of the services and projected fees, and the means by which such Fund-Related Adviser Services were approved by the Audit Committee (i.e., whether listed on Annex I-B or specifically approved in accordance with Section IV).

C. Certain other services provided to Adviser entities.

The Audit Committee recognizes that there are cases where services proposed to be provided by the Auditors to Adviser entities are not Fund-Related Adviser Services within the meaning of these Procedures, but nonetheless may be relevant to the Committee’s ongoing evaluation of the Auditors’ independence and objectivity with respect to their audit services to the Funds. As a result, in all cases where an Adviser entity engages the Auditors to provide non-audit services that are not Fund Services or Fund-Related Adviser Services and the projected fees for such engagement exceed $25,000, the Auditors will notify the Audit Committee not later than its next meeting. Such notification shall include a general description of the services to be provided, the entity that is to be the recipient of such services and the projected fees.

III. Internal Controls

The Audit Committee expects the Auditors to implement and maintain effective internal controls to: (A) monitor the Auditors’ independence; (B) prevent the Auditors from providing any impermissible non-audit services to the Funds; (C) prevent the Auditors from providing any Fund Services or Fund-Related Adviser Services without first obtaining assurances that any pre-approval required by these Procedures has been obtained; and (D) tabulate and calculate its fees

APPENDIX I—FORM OF NEW INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENTS

     AGREEMENT, made by and between [NAME OF INVESTMENT COMPANY], a Delaware statutory trust (the “Trust”), on behalf of each series of shares of beneficial interest of the Trust that is listed on Exhibit A to this Agreement, as that Exhibit may be amended from time to time (each such series of shares is hereinafter referred to as a “Fund” and, together with other series of shares listed on such Exhibit, the “Funds”), and DELAWARE MANAGEMENT COMPANY, a series of Delaware Management Business Trust, a Delaware statutory trust (the “Investment Manager”).

WITNESSETH:

     WHEREAS, the Trust has been organized and operates as an investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”);

     WHEREAS, each Fund engages in the business of investing and reinvesting its assets in securities;

     WHEREAS, the Investment Manager is registered under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended (the “Advisers Act”), as an investment adviser and engages in the business of providing investment management services; and

     WHEREAS, the Trust, on behalf of each Fund, and the Investment Manager desire to enter into this Agreement so that the Investment Manager may provide investment management services to each Fund.

     NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants herein contained, and each of the parties hereto intending to be legally bound, it is agreed as follows:

     1. The Trust hereby employs the Investment Manager to manage the investment and reinvestment of each Fund’s assets and to administer its investment affairs, subject to the direction of the Trust’s Board of Trustees and officers for the period and on the terms hereinafter set forth. The Investment Manager hereby accepts such employment and agrees during such period to render the services and assume the obligations herein set forth for the compensation herein provided. The Investment Manager shall for all purposes herein be deemed to be an independent contractor, and shall, unless otherwise expressly provided and authorized, have no authority to act for or represent the Trust or the Funds in any way, or in any way be deemed an agent of the Trust or the Funds. The Investment Manager shall regularly make decisions as to what securities and other instruments to purchase and sell on behalf of each Fund and shall effect the purchase and sale of such investments in furtherance of each Fund’s investment objectives and policies and shall furnish the Board of Trustees of the Trust with such information and reports regarding each Fund’s investments as the Investment Manager deems appropriate or as the Trustees of the Trust may reasonably request. Such decisions and services shall include exercising discretion regarding any voting rights, rights to consent to corporate actions and any other rights pertaining to each Fund’s investment securities.

     2. The Trust shall conduct its own business and affairs and shall bear the expenses and salaries necessary and incidental thereto, including, but not in limitation of the foregoing, the costs incurred in: the maintenance of its corporate existence; the maintenance of its own books, records and procedures; dealing with its own shareholders; the payment of dividends; transfer of shares, including

I-1

issuance, redemption and repurchase of shares; preparation of share certificates; reports and notices to shareholders; calling and holding of shareholders’ and trustees’ meetings; miscellaneous office expenses; brokerage commissions; custodian fees; legal, auditing, fund accounting, and financial administration fees; taxes; federal and state registration fees; and other costs and expenses approved by the Board of Trustees. Trustees, officers and employees of the Investment Manager may be directors, trustees, officers and employees of any of the investment companies within the Delaware Investments family of funds (including the Trust). Trustees, officers and employees of the Investment Manager who are directors, trustees, officers and/or employees of these investment companies shall not receive any compensation from such companies for acting in such dual capacity.

     In the conduct of the respective businesses of the parties hereto and in the performance of this Agreement, the Trust and Investment Manager may share facilities common to each, which may include legal and accounting personnel, with appropriate proration of expenses between them.

     3. (a) Subject to the primary objective of obtaining the best execution, the Investment Manager may place orders for the purchase and sale of portfolio securities and other instruments with such broker/dealers selected by the Investment Manager who provide statistical, factual and financial information and services to the Trust, to the Investment Manager, to any sub-adviser (as defined in Paragraph 5 hereof, a “Sub-Adviser”) or to any other fund or account for which the Investment Manager or any Sub-Adviser provides investment advisory services and/or with broker/dealers who sell shares of the Trust or who sell shares of any other investment company (or series thereof) for which the Investment Manager or any Sub-Adviser provides investment advisory services. Broker/dealers who sell shares of any investment companies or series thereof for which the Investment Manager or Sub-Adviser provides investment advisory services shall only receive orders for the purchase or sale of portfolio securities to the extent that the placing of such orders is in compliance with the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. (“FINRA”) and does not take into account such broker/dealer’s promotion or sale of such shares.

     (b) Notwithstanding the provisions of subparagraph (a) above and subject to such policies and procedures as may be adopted by the Board of Trustees and officers of the Trust, the Investment Manager may cause a Fund to pay a member of an exchange, broker or dealer an amount of commission for effecting a securities transaction in excess of the amount of commission another member of an exchange, broker or dealer would have charged for effecting that transaction, in such instances where the Investment Manager has determined in good faith that such amount of commission was reasonable in relation to the value of the brokerage and research services provided by such member, broker or dealer, viewed in terms of either that particular transaction or the Investment Manager’s overall responsibilities with respect to the Trust and to other investment companies (or series thereof) and other advisory accounts for which the Investment Manager exercises investment discretion.

     4. As compensation for the investment services to be rendered to a particular Fund by the Investment Manager under the provisions of this Agreement, the Trust shall pay monthly to the Investment Manager exclusively from that Fund’s assets, a fee based on the average daily net assets of that Fund during the month. Such fee shall be calculated in accordance with the fee schedule applicable to that Fund as set forth in Exhibit A hereto.

     If this Agreement is terminated prior to the end of any calendar month with respect to a particular Fund, the management fee for such Fund shall be prorated for the portion of any month in which this Agreement is in effect with respect to such Fund according to the proportion which the number of calendar days during which the Agreement is in effect bears to the number of calendar days in the month, and shall be payable within 10 calendar days after the date of termination.

I-2

     5. The Investment Manager may, at its expense, select and contract with one or more investment advisers registered under the Advisers Act (“Sub-Advisers”) to perform some or all of the services for a Fund for which it is responsible under this Agreement. The Investment Manager will compensate any Sub-Adviser for its services to the Fund. The Investment Manager may terminate the services of any Sub-Adviser at any time in its sole discretion, and shall at such time assume the responsibilities of such Sub-Adviser unless and until a successor Sub-Adviser is selected and the requisite approval of the Fund’s shareholders, if required, is obtained. The Investment Manager will continue to have responsibility for all advisory services furnished by any Sub-Adviser.

     6. The services to be rendered by the Investment Manager to the Trust under the provisions of this Agreement are not to be deemed to be exclusive. The Investment Manager, its trustees, officers, employees, agents and shareholders may engage in other businesses, may render investment advisory services to other investment companies, or to any other corporation, association, firm or individual, and may render underwriting services to the Trust or to any other investment company, corporation, association, firm or individual, so long as the Investment Manager’s other activities do not impair its ability to render the services provided for in this Agreement.

     7. It is understood and agreed that so long as the Investment Manager and/or its investment advisory affiliates shall continue to serve as the Trust’s investment adviser, other investment companies as may be sponsored or advised by the Investment Manager or its affiliates may have the right permanently to adopt and to use the words “Delaware,” “Delaware Investments” or “Delaware Group” in their names and in the names of any series or class of shares of such funds.

     8. In the absence of willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence, or a reckless disregard of the performance of its duties as the Investment Manager to the Trust, the Investment Manager shall not be subject to liability to the Trust or to any shareholder of the Trust for any action or omission in the course of, or connected with, rendering services hereunder or for any losses that may be sustained in the purchase, holding or sale of any security, or otherwise.

     9. (a) This Agreement shall be executed and become effective as of the date written below, and shall become effective with respect to a particular Fund as of the effective date set forth in Exhibit A for that Fund, only if approved by the vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of that Fund. It shall continue in effect for an initial period of two years for each Fund and may be renewed thereafter only so long as such renewal and continuance is specifically approved at least annually by the Board of Trustees or by the vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of that Fund and only if the terms and the renewal hereof have been approved by the vote of a majority of the Trustees of the Trust who are not parties hereto or interested persons of any such party (“Independent Trustees”), cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such approval.

     (b) This Agreement (and Exhibit A hereto) may be amended without the approval of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Fund if the amendment relates solely to a management fee reduction or other change that is permitted or not prohibited under then current federal law, rule, regulation or SEC staff interpretation thereof to be made without shareholder approval. This Agreement may be amended from time to time pursuant to a written agreement executed by the Trust, on behalf of the applicable Fund, and the Investment Manager.

     (c) This Agreement may be terminated as to any Fund by the Trust at any time, without the payment of a penalty, on sixty days’ written notice to the Investment Manager of the Trust’s intention to do so, pursuant to action by the Board of Trustees of the Trust or pursuant to the vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the affected Fund. The Investment Manager may terminate this Agreement at any time, without the payment of a penalty, on sixty days’ written notice to

I-3

the Trust of its intention to do so. Upon termination of this Agreement, the obligations of all the parties hereunder shall cease and terminate as of the date of such termination, except for any obligation to respond for a breach of this Agreement committed prior to such termination, and except for the obligation of the Trust to pay to the Investment Manager the fee provided in Paragraph 4 hereof, prorated to the date of termination. This Agreement shall automatically terminate in the event of its assignment.

     10. This Agreement shall extend to and bind the administrators, successors and permitted assigns of the parties hereto.

     11. For the purposes of this Agreement, (i) the terms “vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities”; “interested persons”; and “assignment” shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the 1940 Act, and (ii) references to the SEC and FINRA shall be deemed to include any successor regulators.

     IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto have caused this Agreement to be signed by their duly authorized officers as of the ___ day of _________, ____.

* In general, each Current Investment Advisory Agreement was last approved by shareholders (or, to the extent applicable, the initial shareholder) of the relevant Fund either in connection with the initial approval of such agreement or in connection with any later amendment requiring such approval.

     Each Fund’s advisory fee under the New Investment Advisory Agreement and the Current Investment Advisory Agreement is identical. Exhibit A to Appendix C-1 lists the advisory fees for each Fund.

     Each Fund’s fund administration fees will remain identical after the Transaction. For fund accounting and financial administration services, each Fund pays BNY Mellon an asset-based fee, subject to certain fee minimums plus certain out-of-pocket expenses and transactional charges. The asset based fee, which is allocated among all funds in the Delaware Investments® Family of Funds on a relative NAV basis, is calculated as follows:

Average Daily Net Assets of Family of Funds	Annual Fees
First $30 billion of average daily net assets	0.035%
Next $10 billion of average daily net assets	0.0325%
Next $10 billion of average daily net assets	0.030%
Over $50 billion of average daily net assets	0.020%

     For fund accounting and financial administration oversight services, each Fund pays DSC an asset-based fee, plus certain out-of-pocket expenses and transactional charges. The asset based fee, which is allocated among all funds in the Delaware Investments Family of Funds on a relative NAV basis, is calculated as follows:

Average Daily Net Assets of Family of Funds	Annual Fees
First $30 billion of average daily net assets	0.0050%
Next $10 billion of average daily net assets	0.0045%
Next $10 billion of average daily net assets	0.0040%
Over $50 billion of average daily net assets	0.0025%

Dear Sir or Madam:

Very truly yours,
