Leadership Structure and the Board of Trustees

The Board of Trustees oversees the operations and management of the Funds, including the duties performed for the Funds by the Advisor and other service providers. The Board is currently composed of four Trustees, all who are not “interested persons” of the Trust, as that term is defined in the 1940 Act. Like all mutual funds, the day-to-day responsibility for the management and operation of the Funds is the responsibility of various service providers to the Fund, such as the Funds’ Advisor, distributor, administrator, custodian, and transfer agent. The Board approves all significant agreements between the Trust, on behalf of the Funds, and its service providers, including the agreements with the Advisor, distributor, administrator, custodian and transfer agent. The Board has appointed various officers of the Trust who also report to the Board on the Funds’ day-to-day operations. In conducting this oversight responsibility, the Board receives regular reports from these officers and service providers regarding the Trust’s operations. The Board has appointed the Chief Compliance Officer (“CCO”), who administers the Trust’s compliance program and regularly reports to the Board on compliance matters. These reports may be provided as part of the formal “Board Meetings” which are typically held quarterly, in person, and involve the Board’s review of recent Fund operations, or the Board may also hold special in-person and/or telephone meetings and informal conference calls to discuss specific matters that may require action prior to the next regularly scheduled meeting. In conjunction with the regularly scheduled Board meetings and committee meetings, the Independent Trustees (who also comprise the Audit Committee) also meet in executive session periodically (but at least annually), and separately, with Trust officers, with personnel of the service providers, and with the Trust’s CCO. The Independent Trustees may also meet in executive session among themselves and periodically with independent legal counsel. In all cases, however, the role of the Board and of any individual Trustee is one of oversight and not of management of the day-to-day affairs of the Trust and its oversight role does not make the Board a guarantor of the Trust’s or Funds’ investments, operations or activities. The Board met five times during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2017. All Independent Trustees were present at these meetings.

Information about Each Trustee’s Qualification, Experience, Attributes or Skills

The Board believes that each Trustee’s experience, qualifications, attributes or skills on an individual basis and in combination with those of the other Trustees lead to the conclusion that the Board possesses the requisite attributes and skills. In addition to the information provided in the table above, listed below for each Trustee is additional information concerning the experiences, qualifications and attributes that led to the conclusion, as of the date of this proxy statement that each current Trustee should serve as a trustee. References to the qualifications, attributes and skills of trustees are pursuant to requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), do not constitute holding out of the Board or any Trustee as having any special expertise and shall not impose any greater responsibility or liability on any such person or on the Board by reason thereof.

Board Leadership Structure

The Board has structured itself in a manner that it believes allows it to effectively perform its oversight function. In an effort to enhance the independence of the Board, the Board is currently comprised entirely of Independent Trustees, including a Chairman that is an Independent Trustee. The Board recognizes that the chairman can perform an important role in setting the Board agenda, establishing the boardroom culture, serving as a point person on behalf of the Board with fund management, facilitating communications among Trustees and with service providers, and reinforcing the Board’s focus on the long-term interests of shareholders. The Board also recognizes that a chairman may be able to better

11

perform these functions without any conflicts of interests arising from a position with fund management. Currently, Mr. James U. Jensen serves as the independent Chairman of the Board. Under the Trust’s By-laws, the Chairman (or, if the Chairman is unable to attend any such meeting, the Chairman’s designee) shall preside at all meetings of the Trustees and the shareholders.

Standing Committees. Although the Board has direct responsibility over various matters (such as advisory contracts, underwriting contracts and Fund performance), the Board also exercises certain of its oversight responsibilities through its committees, the Audit Committee and the Governance and Nominating Committee (the “Governance Committee”), standing committees that it has established which report back to the Board. The Audit Committee is comprised entirely of the Independent Trustees and operates under a written charter adopted and approved by the Board. Accordingly, Messrs. Jensen and Rinne, Ms. Allison and Ms. Fletcher are each members of the Audit Committee with Ms. Allison serving as Chair. The Audit Committee was established in accordance with Section 3(a)(58)(A) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. Under the charter, the primary purposes of the Audit Committee include to oversee the Funds’ accounting and financial reporting policies and practices, its internal controls and the internal controls of the Funds’ accounting, administration, transfer agency and custody service providers; to oversee the quality and integrity of the Funds’ financial statements and independent audit thereof; to assist the Board’s oversight of the Funds’ compliance with legal and regulatory requirements that relate to the Fund’s accounting and financial reporting, internal control over financial reporting and independent audits; to act as a liaison between the Funds’ independent public accountants and the full Board of Trustees; to assist the Board oversight of the Funds’ internal audit function (if any); and to approve prior to appointment, the engagement of the Funds’ independent public accountants and, in connection therewith, to review and evaluate the qualifications, independence and performance of the Funds’ independent public accountants. To fulfill its oversight duties, the Audit Committee receives annual and semi-annual reports and has regular meetings with the external auditors for the Funds. The Audit Committee’s actions are governed by the Trust’s written Audit Committee Charter. The Audit Committee met four times during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2017.

In addition to the Audit Committee, the Board has also established the Governance Committee. The Governance Committee is comprised entirely of the Independent Trustees and operates under a written charter adopted and approved by the Board. Accordingly, Messrs. Jensen and Rinne, and Ms. Allison and Ms. Fletcher are each members of the Governance Committee with Mr. Rinne serving as Chair. Under the charter, the primary responsibilities of the Governance Committee include: determining matters of corporate governance (including the evaluation of Board and committee performance, committee processes, and trustee compensation); evaluating the composition of the Board and any constituent committees thereof and the process by which Board and committee chairs are selected; identification, consideration and nomination of candidates to become Board members; and other duties and responsibilities as may from time to time be delegated to the committee by the Board. The Governance Committee met three times during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2017.

The Governance Committee may solicit suggestions for nominations from any source it deems appropriate including, but not limited to, the Funds’ investment advisor, sub-advisor, counsel or service providers. The Governance Committee also will consider nominees recommended by shareholders. Recommendations should be submitted in writing to the Committee care of the Secretary of the Wasatch Funds Trust, 505 Wakara Way 3rd Floor, Salt Lake City, UT 84108. Candidates must meet the requirements established by the Board of Trustees, and must be legally qualified to serve as a Trustee under all applicable federal and state securities laws and regulations, including Section 9 of the 1940 Act. In addition, any nominee must not be an “interested person” as defined in Section 2(a)(19) of the 1940 Act, or rules thereunder, if the vacancy to be filled is that of an Independent Trustee. Any such recommendation should include the shareholder’s name; address; name of broker or record holder, if applicable; number of shares owned;

12

name of Funds in which the shares are owned; whether the candidate consents to being identified in the proxy statement in connection with the election of Trustees; the name and background information of the candidate; and a representation that the candidate is willing to provide additional information about him/herself, including assurances of his or her independence.

In evaluating potential candidates for the Board, the Independent Trustees may consider various factors including, among other things: integrity and ethics, breadth of experience, profession, education and skills, life experiences, interpersonal skills, ability to devote the necessary time to the Funds, other board experience, contribution to Board diversity, and willingness to invest personal assets in the Funds. The Board believes that there is a meaningful relationship between diverse boards and constructive corporate governance and that diversity of Trustees can help boards more effectively discharge their duties. However, the Board has declined to develop a specific definition of “diversity” since the characteristics that create Board diversity are dependent upon the characteristics of the incumbent Trustees, the presence, absence and importance of which change over time. In reviewing candidates, the Trustees will use, among other things, personal interviews, background checks, written submissions by the candidates, and third-party references, if any. The Governance Committee would evaluate candidates submitted by shareholders in the same manner and use the same criteria it uses to evaluate other nominees identified by the Governance Committee.

Although the Funds have not adopted a specific process regarding shareholder communications, shareholders of the Funds may communicate with the Board (or individual Trustees serving on the Board) by sending written communications, addressed to the Board as a group or any individual Trustee, to the Secretary of the Wasatch Funds Trust, 505 Wakara Way, 3rd Floor, Salt Lake City, Utah 84108. The Secretary of the Trust will ensure that this communication (assuming it is properly marked care of the Board or care of a specific Trustee) is delivered to the Board or the specified Trustee, as the case may be.

The Board believes that the committee structure is an effective means to permit Trustees to focus on particular operations or issues affecting the Funds. In addition to the standing committees, the Board may also from time to time create ad hoc committees or additional standing committees to focus on particular issues as the need arises.

The Board has determined that its leadership structure, including its committee structure permitting certain areas of responsibility to be allocated to the Independent Trustees together with its Independent Chairman, is appropriate given the characteristics of the Trust and Funds.

Board Oversight of Risk Management

The Board’s oversight responsibilities extend also to risk oversight, including but not limited to, risks related to investments and operations. Because risk management is a broad concept comprised of many elements (including, for example, but not limited to, investment risks, issuer risks, compliance risks, valuation risks, counterparty risks, operational risks, business continuity risks, and legal, compliance and regulatory risks) the oversight of different types of risks is addressed through various risk management reports and assessments received from the relevant management personnel and service providers. Through its direct oversight role, and indirectly through its Audit Committee, the Board performs a risk oversight function for the Funds which may consist of, among other things, the following activities: (1) receiving and reviewing reports related to the performance and operations of the Funds, including but not limited to investment, compliance, liquidity, valuation and operation risks; (2) reviewing and approving, as applicable, compliance policies and procedures of the Fund; (3) meeting with portfolio management teams to review investment strategies, techniques and processes and the investment risks associated therewith; (4) reviewing reports generated by and/or meeting with representatives of key service providers to review and discuss the risks associated with their activities for the Fund and any

13

measures taken to mitigate those risks; (5) receiving written and/or oral reports of the CCO, meeting privately with the CCO, and receiving the annual report of the CCO regarding the operations of the Funds’ Compliance Program, the CCO’s evaluation of the service providers’ compliance programs (including material issues that have arisen with the effectiveness of service providers’ compliance programs and changes resulting thereof, and third-party evaluations of the effectiveness of service providers’ operational effectiveness, if any) as well as any recommendations for modifications thereto; and (6) the Audit Committee meeting with the Treasurer and the Trust’s independent public accounting firm to discuss, among other things, the internal control structure of the Trust’s financial reporting function.

The Board recognizes that not all risks that may affect the Funds can be identified, that it may not be practical or cost-effective to eliminate or mitigate certain risks, that it may be necessary to bear certain risks (such as investment-related risks) to achieve a Fund’s goals, and that the processes, procedures and controls employed to address certain risks may be limited in their effectiveness. Moreover, reports received by the Trustees as to risk management matters are typically summaries of the relevant information. As a result of the foregoing and other factors, the Board’s risk management oversight is subject to certain limitations.

Shareholder Approval

Election of the Nominees for Trustees must be approved by a plurality of the votes validly cast in person or by proxy at the Meeting at which a quorum exists. The shareholders of the Trust will vote together for the election of Trustees.

SUBMISSION OF CERTAIN SHAREHOLDER PROPOSALS

The Trust does not hold annual shareholder meetings. Any shareholder proposal intended to be presented at any future meeting of shareholders must be received by the Trust at its principal office a reasonable time before the solicitation of proxies for such meeting in order for such proposal to be considered for inclusion in that Proxy Statement relating to such meeting. Shareholders wishing to submit proposals for inclusion in a proxy statement for a subsequent shareholder meeting should send their written proposals to the Secretary of the Wasatch Funds Trust, 505 Wakara Way, 3^rd Floor, Salt Lake City, Utah 84108.

DELIVERY OF ANNUAL REPORTS AND OTHER DOCUMENTS

Please note that only one annual or semi-annual report, or proxy statement, as applicable, may be delivered to two or more shareholders of a Fund who share an address, unless such Fund has received instructions to the contrary. To request a separate copy of an annual or semi-annual report, or proxy statement, as applicable, or for instructions as to how to request a separate copy of such documents or as to how to request a single copy if multiple copies of such documents are received, shareholders should contact the applicable Fund at the following address: Wasatch Funds, P.O. Box 2172, Milwaukee, Wisconsin 53201-2172 or call 800-551-1700. Pursuant to a request, a separate copy will be delivered promptly.

VOTING INFORMATION

This Proxy Statement is furnished in connection with a solicitation of proxies by the Board to be used at the Meeting. This Proxy Statement, along with a Notice of the Meeting and proxy card, is first being mailed to shareholders of the Funds on or about June 12, 2018. Only shareholders of record as of the close of business on the Record Date, May 31, 2018, will be entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the Meeting. If the enclosed form of proxy card is properly executed and returned in time to be voted at the Meeting, the proxies named therein will vote the shares represented by the proxy in accordance with the instructions marked thereon. Unmarked but properly executed proxy cards will be voted FOR the proposal and at the discretion of the named proxies on any other matters deemed appropriate. A proxy may be revoked at any time at or before the vote on the matter by written notice received by the Secretary of the Trust, 505 Wakara Way, 3^rd Floor, Salt Lake City, Utah 84108 prior to the vote on the matter, by submitting a subsequently dated proxy or by attending and voting at the Meeting or the adjournment or

16

postponement thereof. Unless revoked, all valid and executed proxies will be voted in accordance with the specifications thereon or, in the absence of such specifications, for approval of the matters contemplated thereby.

Quorum

The holders of thirty percent (30%) of the shares outstanding and entitled to vote on the applicable proposal at the Meeting shall constitute a quorum for purposes of voting upon the proposal at the Meeting.

Voting Requirement

Nominees for Trustee receiving a plurality of the votes cast in person or by proxy at the Meeting at which a quorum exists will be elected to the Board of Trustees of the Trust in proposal 1.

EFFECT OF ABSTENTIONS AND BROKER “NON-VOTES”

Abstentions and “broker non-votes” (i.e., shares held by brokers or nominees, typically in “street name,” as to which (i) instructions have not been received from the beneficial owners or persons entitled to vote and (ii) the broker or nominee does not have discretionary voting power on a particular matter) will be treated as present for purposes of determining a quorum. In addition, under the rules of the New York Stock Exchange, if a broker has not received instructions from beneficial owners or persons entitled to vote and the proposal to be voted upon may “affect substantially” a shareholder’s rights or privileges, the broker may not vote the shares as to that proposal even if it has discretionary voting power. As a result, these shares also will be treated as broker non-votes for purposes of proposals that may “affect substantially” a shareholder’s rights or privileges (but will not be treated as broker non-votes for other proposals, including adjournment of the Meeting).

Abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on proposal 1, for which the required vote is a plurality of the votes cast.

PROXY SOLICITATION

Proxies are solicited primarily by mail. Additional solicitations may be made by telephone, e-mail, or other personal contact by officers or employees of the Advisor and its affiliates or by proxy soliciting firms retained by the Funds. The Funds have retained AST Fund Solutions (the “Solicitor”), to provide proxy solicitation services in connection with the Meeting at an estimated cost of $441,000. In addition, the Funds may reimburse persons holding shares in their names or names of their nominees for expenses incurred in forwarding solicitation material to their beneficial owners.

As the Meeting date approaches, shareholders of the Funds may receive a call from a representative of the Solicitor if the Funds have not yet received their vote. Authorization to permit the Solicitor to execute proxies may be obtained by telephonic or electronically transmitted instructions from Fund shareholders. Proxies that are obtained telephonically will be recorded in accordance with the procedures set forth below. Management of the Funds believes that these procedures are reasonably designed to ensure that the identity of the shareholder casting the vote is accurately determined and that the voting instructions of the shareholder are accurately determined. In all cases where a telephonic proxy is solicited, the solicitor’s representative is required to ask the shareholder for the shareholder’s full name, address, social security number or employer identification number, title (if the person giving the proxy is authorized to act on behalf of an entity, such as a corporation), the number of shares owned and to confirm that the shareholder has received this Proxy Statement in the mail.

17

If the shareholder information solicited agrees with the information provided to the Solicitor by the Funds, the Solicitor representative has the responsibility to explain the process, read the proposals listed on the proxy card, and ask for the shareholder’s instructions on each proposal. The Solicitor representative, although permitted to answer questions about the process, is not permitted to recommend to the shareholder how to vote, other than to read any recommendation set forth in this Proxy Statement. The Solicitor will record the shareholder’s instructions on the card. Within 72 hours, the Solicitor will send the shareholder a letter or mailgram to confirm the shareholder’s vote and asking the shareholder to call the Solicitor immediately if the shareholder’s instructions are not correctly reflected in the confirmation.

ADJOURNMENTS

If a quorum is not present at the Meeting, the Chairman of the Board or his designee presiding at the Meeting may adjourn the Meeting with respect to one or more matters. If a quorum is present with respect to such matters, the Trustee or officer of the Trust presiding at the Meeting may adjourn the Meeting with respect to one or more matters when such adjournment is approved by shareholders representing a majority of the voting power of the shares present and entitled to vote with respect to the matter or matters adjourned. Unless a proxy is otherwise limited in this regard, any shares present and entitled to vote at the Meeting that are represented by broker non-votes, may, at the discretion of the proxies named therein, be voted in favor of such an adjournment. The persons named as proxies will vote upon such adjournment in their discretion after consideration of the best interests of the shareholders. Unless otherwise specifically limited by their terms, proxies shall entitle the holder thereof to vote at any postponement or adjournment of the Meeting.
