IF NO - Then help the shareholder obtain the material he/she requires. If a NOBO, give him/her the 800# and have them call back when they receive. If registered, we will send the materials directly. In either case, make sure the address is correct, make any necessary corrections, and code the disposition as "14" or "15".

IF YES - The fund's Board of Trustees is asking you to consider [#] proposal[s] which they have studied carefully and they recommend that you vote in favor of proposal[s] [#] [and against proposal[s] [#]].
