We Need Your Help

 

March 28, 2023

 

Dear Valued Shareholder,

 

We need your help. Today, the special meeting of shareholders of the US Treasury 10 Year Note ETF, US Treasury 2 Year Note ETF, US Treasury 12 Month Bill ETF and US Treasury 3 Month Bill ETF (each a “Fund” and together, the “Funds”) was adjourned until April 18, 2023, to provide Fund shareholders who have yet to cast their proxy vote with more time to do so. Our records indicate that we do not yet have your voting instructions. Please help us to proceed with important business of the Funds by taking a moment to cast your proxy vote today.

 

As described in detail in the proxy statement mailed to Fund shareholders previously (available at https://vote.proxyonline.com/rbb/docs/ETF2023.pdf), shareholders are being asked to consider the approval of the New Investment Advisory Agreement. Please note that the unitary management fees payable to the Adviser under the New Investment Advisory Agreement are the same as the unitary management fees payable under the Funds’ previously existing investment advisory agreement. Furthermore, the investment advisory personnel who provided services to the Funds under the previously existing investment advisory agreement are expected to continue to do so under the New Investment Advisory Agreement. The Board believes that approval of the Proposal is in the best interest of each Fund and its shareholders and recommends that you vote “FOR” the Proposal. Importantly, approval of the Proposal will not result in any increase in shareholder fees or expenses.

 

We very much appreciate your attention to this matter. Please help us by casting your important proxy vote today.

 

Sincerely,

Steven Plump 

President 

The RBB Fund, Inc.
