ADJOURNMENT NOTICE

Due to low shareholder participation, the Special Meeting of Shareholders on
January 19, 2007, was adjourned to February 6, 2007 in order to provide
shareholders with additional time to register their vote.

Dear Shareholder:

I am writing to inform you that your fund did not receive enough votes to reach a conclusion on the proposals being voted on at the Special Meeting of Shareholders on January 19, 2007. As noted above, the Meeting has been adjourned until February 6, 2007 to allow shareholders additional time to vote.

Often shareholders do not vote their shares because they think their vote will not make a difference in the outcome. Nothing could be further from the truth. In fact, on average each account holds less than 500 shares, making each and every shareholder’s vote vital.

EVERY VOTE COUNTS!

Another copy of your ballot(s) is enclosed with this letter for your convenience. Should you have any questions about the voting process, please call 1-800-283-2519.

After careful review and consideration by the Board of Trustees of the Trust, they have approved all proposals and believe they are in the best interests of each Fund’s shareholders. Accordingly they recommend that you vote in favor of all proposals.

Please utilize one of the following easy methods to register your vote:

	1.	Vote by Phone You may simply call the toll-free number found on the enclosed proxy card.
	2.	Vote via the Internet Log on to www.proxyweb.com and follow the simple instructions.
	3.	Vote by Mail You may cast your vote by signing the enclosed proxy card and returning it in the postage-paid envelope provided.

DON’T HESITATE, PLEASE VOTE TODAY. As the date of the Meeting approaches, if we still have not received your proxy, you may receive a call from The Altman Group, the Fund’s proxy solicitor, reminding you to vote your shares.

Thank you for your assistance.
John T. Hailer, President	REG    HN25-0107
