Dear Shareholder:

We are writing to remind you that the Special Meeting of Shareholders of The Alger Institutional Funds is scheduled for Wednesday, January 17, 2007 at 1:00 p.m. (Eastern).

In order for the Fund to formally conduct business of the Special Meeting, we must receive voting instructions from at least 50% of the outstanding shares, making it critical that a majority of shareholders participate. The Fund’s records indicate that as of October 27, 2006 (“Record Date” for the Special Meeting), you were holding shares of The Alger Institutional Funds and have not yet issued a vote on the matters put forth.

Please vote your shares in order to meet the requisite amount of votes needed to hold this Special Meeting. If you should have any questions regarding the meeting agenda or the execution of your proxy, please call the Fund at 1-866-904-8740.

For your convenience, please utilize any of the following methods to submit your vote:

     By Phone:
Please call Computershare Fund Services toll-free at 1-866-904-8740. Representatives are available to take your vote Monday through Friday between the hours of 9:00 a.m. and 11:00 p.m., and Saturday from 12:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. Eastern Time.

If we still have not received your proxy as the date of the Special Meeting moves closer, you may receive a call asking you to exercise your right to vote. Computershare Fund Services has been retained by the Alger Funds to make follow-up phone calls to help secure the remaining votes needed for this campaign.

Your prompt response by voting via phone, Internet or mail will help reduce proxy costs and will eliminate you receiving follow-up phone calls or mailings.

Thank you in advance for your participation.
