HLGF NEEDS YOUR HELP AND HERE’S WHY


Hilliard Lyons is the Adviser of  Hilliard-Lyons Government Fund, Inc.  Hilliard Lyons is being sold to Houchens Industries Inc.  This is a change in control of the Adviser.  SEC rules require a new investment advisory contract be entered into.  The current advisory contract will cease on the closing date of the Houchens/Hilliard Lyons transaction.


Hilliard Lyons and HLGF need your help.  Please use the unvoted lists of shareholders sent to you to call your clients and encourage them to vote.  They can easily vote by calling toll-free (800) 207-3158.  The only information they need is their name and address.


Shareholders will be solicited by phone.  The only way not to be solicited is to VOTE.  


Thank you for your tremendous support and prompt attention to this very important matter.
