For each Trust, the Audit Committee and the Board have selected the firm of Ernst & Young LLP (“E&Y”) to serve as the Funds’ independent registered public accounting firm. Representatives of E&Y are not expected to be present at the Meeting, but will be available to answer any questions ortelephonically if otherwise necessary.

Audit FeesFees..

Audit-Related Fees.No Trust was billed during its last two fiscal years for assurance and related services rendered by E&Y that were reasonably related to the audit or review of the Trust’s financial statements but where such services were not reported under “Audit Fees” above. Appendix G shows for the last two fiscal years of each Trust the aggregate audit-related fees billed by E&Y for providing such services to the Funds’ investment adviser or other service providers that are under common control with the Funds’ investment adviser. These audit-related services includedconsisted of the issuance of reports concerning the Funds’ transfer agent’s system of internal accounting control pursuant to Rule 17Ad-13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

Tax FeesFees.. Appendix G also shows for each Trust the aggregate fees billed in each of the last two fiscal years for professional services rendered by E&Y to the Trust for tax compliance, tax advice, and tax planning. E&Y did not during any Trust’s last two fiscal years provide any such

     For each Trust, the Audit Committee has considered whether the provision of non-audit services that were rendered to the Trust’s investment adviser, and any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with the Trust’s investment adviser that provides ongoing services to the Trust, is compatible with maintaining the independence of E&Y. The Audit Committee has determined that E&Y’s provision of these services is compatible with maintaining E&Y’s independence.

PROPOSAL 2: TO APPROVE A NEW INVESTMENT
ADVISORY AGREEMENT

Introduction to Proposal 2

     In Proposal 2, you are being asked to approve a new investment advisory agreement between your Fund and Delaware Management Company (“DMC”) (each, a “New Investment Advisory Agreement”). DMC currently serves as investment adviser for each Fund, but, for the reasons discussed below, a new investment advisory agreementNew Investment Advisory Agreement will be required if the Transaction (as defined below) is completed. For a general description of the proposed New Investment Advisory Agreements and a general comparison of the proposed New Investment Advisory Agreements and the investment advisory agreements currently in effect for each Fund (each, a “Current Investment Advisory Agreement”), see “The New Investment Advisory Agreements” below. The form of the New Investment Advisory Agreements is includedpresented in Appendix I. The date of each Fund’s Current Investment Advisory Agreement and the date on which it was last approved by shareholders and approved for continuance by the Board are provided in Appendix J.

     The Boards are proposing the approval of the New Investment Advisory Agreements because the Current Investment Advisory Agreements will terminate upon completion of the Transaction, which is defined and discussed below.Transaction. As required by the 1940 Act, each Current Investment Advisory Agreement terminates automatically upon its “assignment.” Under the 1940 Act, a change in control of an investment adviser constitutes an “assignment.” The consummation of the Transaction will result in a change of

8


control of DMC, and thus, the assignment and automatic termination of the Current Investment Advisory Agreements. Shareholders of each Fund are therefore being asked to approve a New Investment Advisory Agreement for their Fund. Each New Investment Advisory Agreement would become effective only if approved by the shareholders of the applicable Fund and if the Transaction is completed. WhileAlthough the closing of the Transaction (the “Closing”) is currently expected to take place on or about December 31, 2009, if the Transaction is not completed or the Transaction Agreement (as hereinafter defined)defined below) is terminated, the New Investment Advisory Agreements will not go into effect and the Current Investment Advisory Agreements will continue in effect.

Macquarie Group also currently anticipates providing additional funding to support the growth of DMC and its affiliates, for example through potential investment in operations and distribution and a commitment to expanding its multi-boutique approach.

     In anticipation of the Transaction, the Boards have had a number of telephonic and in-person meetings and met both formally and in informational sessions between April 16, 2009 and September 3, 2009, for purposes of, among other things, considering whether it would be in the best interests of each Fund and its shareholders to approve a New Investment Advisory Agreement. The 1940 Act requires that each Fund’s New Investment Advisory Agreement be approved by the Fund’s shareholders in order to become effective. At the in-person meetingsmeeting held on September 3, 2009, and for the reasons discussed below (seeunder “Board Considerationsconsiderations in Approvingapproving the New Investment Advisory Agreements” below), each Board,Agreements,” the Boards, including a majority of itseach Board’s Independent Trustees, approved the New Investment Advisory Agreements as being in the best interests of the Funds and their shareholders and recommended their approval by shareholders. In the event shareholders of a Fund do not approve a New Investment Advisory Agreement, the Fund’s Board will take such action as it deems

11


to be in the best interests of the Fund and its shareholders, including entering into ana temporary, interim advisory agreement with DMC pursuant to Rule 15a-4 of the 1940 Act.Act pending further solicitation of shareholder approval.

11Section 15(f) of the 1940 Act


     The Boards have been advised that the parties intend to rely on Section 15(f) of the 1940 Act, which provides a non-exclusive safe-harbor whereby an owner (such as LNC and LNIC) of an investment adviser (such as DMC) to an investment company (such as a Fund) may receive payment or benefit in connection with the sale of an interest in the investment adviser if two conditions are satisfied. The first condition is that during the three-year period following the transaction, at least 75% of the investment company’s board must not be “interested persons” (as defined in the 1940 Act) of the investment adviser or its predecessor. Each Board currently meets this test and is expected to do so after the Transaction is completed. Second, no “unfair burden” can be imposed on the investment company as a result of the transaction. An “unfair burden” includes any arrangement during the two-year period after the transaction where the investment adviser (or predecessor or successor adviser), or any of its “interested persons” (as defined in the 1940 Act), receive or is entitled to receive any compensation, directly or indirectly, (i) from any person in connection with the purchase or sale of securities or other property to, from or on behalf of the investment company (other than bona fide ordinary compensation as principal underwriter for the investment company) or (ii) from the investment company or its shareholders (other than fees for bona fide investment advisory or other services). Macquarie Bank Limited has agreed as part of the Transaction Agreement that, following the Closing, to the extent within its control, it will not take or fail to take (and will not cause its affiliates to take or fail to take) any action, if such action or failure to take action would have the effect, directly or indirectly, of causing the requirements of Section 15(f) of the 1940 Act not to be met with respect to the Transaction. In that regard, from and after the Closing date and to the extent within its control, Macquarie Bank Limited has agreed to conduct its business (and to cause each of its affiliates to conduct its business) so as to assure that the two aforementioned conditions are satisfied.

The New Investment Advisory Agreements

     Each Fund’s New Investment Advisory Agreement will be substantially similar to its Current Investment Advisory Agreement. Appendix I includes acontains the form of the New Investment Advisory Agreement. A discussionThe following is a comparison of the basis for a Board’s approvalcertain provisions of each Fund’s Current Investment Advisory Agreement is available in the Fund’s most recent annual or semi-annual report to shareholders. Appendix J provides information on the Current Investment Advisory Agreements, including their dates, date of last shareholder approval, the reason for the most recent submission to shareholders, and the rates the Funds pay for fund administrative services. Exhibit A to Appendix I discloses the rate of compensation of DMC under both the Current Investment Advisory Agreement and the New Investment Advisory Agreement. Appendix K describes for each Fund the aggregate amount of DMC’s fee and the amount and purpose of any other material payments to DMC (including any affiliated person of DMC) for services provided to each Fund during the last fiscal year of the Fund. These services will continue to be provided if the New Investment Advisory Agreements are approved. DMC provides investment advisory services to certain other funds that have investment objectives and policies similar to those of the Funds. Appendix K lists such other mutual funds advised by DMC, the net assets of those funds, and the management fee schedule pursuant to which DMC received advisory fees from those funds during the fiscal years ended on the dates noted.Current Investment Advisory Agreements.

12


Fees.There will be no change in the fee schedule applicable to any Fund under its New Investment Advisory Agreement. All currently effective contractual fee waiversexpense limitations or reimbursements will remain in place after the Transaction until the end of their respective terms, and Macquarie Group has no present intention to cause DMC to alter any voluntary expense waiverslimitations or reimbursements currently in effect for the Funds.

Investment Advisory Services.Each New Investment Advisory Agreement requires DMC to provide the same services to the applicable Funds as it does under the corresponding Current Investment Advisory Agreement. Each Fund’s New Investment Advisory Agreement generally provides that, subject to the direction and control of the Fund’s Board, DMC shall (i) regularly make decisions as to what securities and other instruments to purchase and sell on behalf of the Fund; (ii) effect the purchase and sale of those investments in furtherance of the Fund’s objectives and policies; and (iii) furnish the Board with information and reports regarding the Fund’s investments as DMC deems appropriate or as the Board may reasonably request.

     Subject to the primary objective of obtaining best execution, DMC may place orders for the purchase and sale of portfolio securities and other instruments with broker/dealers that provide statistical, factual, or financial information and services to a Fund, to DMC, or to other clients of DMC.

Both the Current and New Investment Advisory Agreement for each Fund provide that the services of DMC are not exclusive to the Fund,Funds, and DMC and its affiliates may render services to others.

     The New Investment Advisory Agreements provide that DMC may, to the extent permitted by applicable law, appoint at its own expense one or more sub-advisers, including affiliates of DMC, to perform investment advisory services for the Fund. DMC may terminate a

12


sub-adviser in its sole discretion at any time to the extent permitted by applicable law. A similar provision is included in the Current Investment Advisory Agreements.

Fund Administration Services.DMC and Macquarie Group have advised the Boards that they anticipate and intend that the nature and level of administrative services provided to the Funds under their Current Investment Advisory Agreements, in combination with any administrative services agreements, will not be diminished as a result of the Transaction or the implementation of the New Investment Advisory Agreements. In addition, any fees for administrative services, whether payable under a Current Investment Advisory Agreement or a separate administrative agreement, will not increase as a direct result of the Transaction or the New Investment Advisory Agreement.

13


Payment of Expenses.The provisions contained in each Fund’s New Investment Advisory Agreement addressing allocation of expenses isare substantially similar in all material respects to those contained in that Fund’s Current Investment Advisory Agreement. Both the Current and New Investment Advisory Agreements provide that each Fund is responsible for its own expenses, including costs incurred in the maintenance of a Fund’s corporate existence; the maintenance of the Fund’s books, records and procedures; dealing with the Fund’s shareholders; the payment of dividends; transfer of shares, including issuance, redemption and repurchase of shares; preparation of share certificates; reports and notices to shareholders; calling and holding of shareholders’ and trustees’ meetings; miscellaneous office expenses; brokerage commissions; custodian fees; legal and accounting fees; taxes; and federal and state registration fees. In addition, to avoid uncertainty, certain other expenses that are paid by the Funds under the Current Investment Advisory Agreement are listed expressly as Fund expenses in the New Investment Advisory Agreement. These expenses include auditing, fund accounting and financial administration fees, and other costs and expenses approved by the Board. Except as expressly provided for in the Current and New Investment Advisory Agreements, DMC is not responsible for a Fund’s expenses. The costs of the Transaction, however, are treated differently. See “Board considerations in approving the New Investment Advisory Agreement – Comparative Expenses.”

     Directors,     Trustees, officers, and employees of DMC may be Trustees and officers of the Trusts, but directors,trustees, officers, and employees of DMC who are Trustees, officers and/or employees of the Trusts do not receive any compensation from the Trusts for acting in a dual capacity. DMC and the Trusts may share facilities common to each Fund,facilities, which may include legal and accounting personnel, with appropriate proration of expenses between the applicable Fund and DMC.

Limitation on Liability.Under the Current and New Investment Advisory Agreements, in the absence of willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence, or a reckless disregard of the performance of its duties as the investment adviser to a Fund, DMC shall not be liable to a Fund or to any shareholder for any action or omission arising in the course of, or connected with, rendering its services under the Agreement or for any losses arising from the purchase, holding, or sale of any security, or otherwise.

Term and Continuance.If approved by shareholders of a Fund, the New Investment Advisory Agreement for the Fund will terminatecontinue in effect for an initial period of two years from the date of implementation, and will continue in effect from year to year ifmay be renewed thereafter provided that its continuancerenewal is specifically approved at least annually by both (i) the vote of a majority of the Fund’s Board or the vote of a 1940 Act Majority (as defined below) of the outstanding voting securities of the Fund and (ii) the vote of a majority of

1314


of the Independent Trustees cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on the approval. The Current Investment Advisory Agreements have similar provisions for their term and continuance, although the initial dates of the Agreements differ.continuance. The initial two yeartwo-year period has elapsed for most of the Current Investment Advisory Agreements.  Each of the Current Investment Advisory Agreements, waswhich were most recently approved by eachthe applicable Fund’s Board in May 2009.

     A “1940 Act Majority” of the outstanding voting securities of a Fund means the lesser of (i) 67% or more of the voting securities of the Fund that are present in person or by proxy at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on the approval if holders of shares representing more than 50% of the outstanding voting securities of the Fund are present in person or by proxy or (ii) more than 50% of the outstanding voting securities of the Fund.

Termination.Each Fund’s New Investment Advisory Agreement generally provides that the Agreement may be terminated at any time, without the payment of any penalty, by the Fund upon giving DMC 60 days’ written notice, provided that the termination by the Fund is directed or approved by the vote of a majority of the Fund’s Board or by the vote of a 1940 Act Majority of the Fund’s outstanding voting securities. The New Investment Advisory Agreements may also be terminated by DMC on 60 days’ written notice. As required by the 1940 Act, each New Investment Advisory Agreement will also immediately terminate in the event of its “assignment” (as defined in the 1940 Act). The Current Investment Advisory Agreements contain similar termination provisions.

Proxy Voting.Each Fund’s New Investment Advisory Agreement provides explicitly that DMC shall be responsible for voting proxies of portfolio securities of each Fund, a service currently provided by DMC but not provided for explicitly in the Current Investment Advisory Agreement.

Amendments.To incorporate explicitly the requirements of the 1940 Act, each Fund’s New Investment Advisory Agreement provides that it may not be amended without a shareholder vote and a vote of the Independent Trustees, but that it may be amended without shareholder approval if the amendment relates solely to a change for which applicable laws and regulations do not require shareholder approval. Each Fund’s Current Investment Advisory Agreement does not contain a similar provision. The New Investment Advisory Agreements provide that they may be amended pursuant to a written agreement executed by a Fund and DMC.

Other Changes.Each Fund’s New Investment Advisory Agreement conforms the Current Investment Advisory Agreement withto currently applicable laws and regulations and includes a number of minor wording changes that clarify non-material ambiguities in the Current Investment Advisory Agreement.

Board Considerationsconsiderations in Approvingapproving the New Investment Advisory Agreements

     At an in-person meeting held on September 3, 2009, the Boards, including the Independent Trustees, discussed and unanimously approved the New Investment Advisory Agreement between each Fund and DMC. Concluding that approval of the New Investment Advisory Agreement would be in the best interests of each Fund and its shareholders, the Boards also directed that each New Investment Advisory Agreement be submitted to the applicable Fund shareholders for approval, and recommended that shareholders vote “FOR”“FOR” approval of each New Investment Advisory Agreement.

     Prior to their approvalconsideration of the New Investment Advisory Agreement between each Fund and DMC,Agreements, pursuant to letters from their independent legal counsel addressed to Macquarie Group and DMC, the Independent Trustees requested extensive materials about the Transaction and matters related to the proposed approvals. To assist the Boards in considering the New Investment Advisory Agreements, Macquarie Group provided materials and information about Macquarie Group, including detailed written responses to the questions posed to it by the Independent Trustees. DMC also provided materials and information about the Transaction, including detailed written responses to the questions posed to it by the Independent Trustees. The Boards requested and received certain information regarding the policies of DMC with respect to advisory fee levels and DMC’s philosophy with respect to breakpoints; the structure of portfolio manager compensation; DMC’s profitability; as well as any constraints or limitations on the availability of securities in certain investment styles that might inhibit DMC’s ability to invest fully in accordance with Fund policies.

     The Coordinating Trustee and the Chair of each committee of the Boards, together with their independent legal counsel and Fund counsel, met with representatives of DMC and Macquarie Group to discuss the Transaction in very preliminary terms. Thereafter, the Independent Trustees, together with their independent legal counsel and Fund counsel, participated in a combination of four separate in-person meetings and telephone conference calls with representatives of DMC and Macquarie Group. In addition, meetings in person or by telephone were held between management of DMC and certain Independent Trustees met in person or by telephone on fourseveral other occasions during the months preceding the Board’sBoards’ in-person meeting.meeting on September 3, 2009. At these meetings and on these telephone calls, the Transaction and future plans for DMC and the Funds were discussed at length. Finally, the Independent Trustees consulted with their independent legal counsel in executive sessions on numerous occasions during the time period covered by the negotiation of the Transaction and discussed, among other things, the legal standards applicable to their review of the New Investment Advisory Agreements and certain other contracts and considerations relevant to their deliberations on whether to approve suchthe New Investment Advisory Agreements.

The meetings included discussions of the strategic rationale for the Transaction as discussed above under “Description of the Transaction,” and Macquarie Group’s general plans and intentions regarding the Funds and DMC. On these occasions, representatives of DMC and Macquarie Group made presentations to, and responded to questions from, the Trustees. The Board members also inquired about the plans for, and anticipated roles and responsibilities of, key employees and officers of DMHI and DMC in connection with the Transaction.

     In connection with the Trustees’ review of the New Investment Advisory Agreements, DMC and/or Macquarie Group emphasized that:

  • Macquarie Group and DMC have assured the Trustees

    They expected that there will be no adversechangesadverse changes as a result of the Transaction in the nature, quality, or extent of services currently provided to the Funds andtheirand their shareholders, including investment management, distribution, or other shareholderservices.

  • Macquarie Group has no present intention to cause DMC to alter the voluntary expensewaiversexpense limitations and reimbursements currently in effect for the FundsFunds; and therefore, the advisoryand administrative fees would not increase by virtue of the Transaction or the NewAdvisory Agreements.

  • Under the Transaction Agreement, Macquarie GroupBank Limited has agreed to conduct, and usereasonable best efforts to cause its affiliates to conduct, their respective businesses incompliancein compliance with the conditions of Section 15(f) of the 1940 Act with respect to theFunds to the extent within its control, including maintaining Board composition of at least 75% of the Board membersqualifying as Independent Trustees and not imposing any “unfair burden” on the FundsforFunds for at least two years from the Closing.

     In addition to the information provided by DMC and Macquarie Group as described above, the Trustees also considered all other factors they believed to be relevant to evaluating the New Investment Advisory Agreements, including the specific matters discussed below. In their deliberations, the Trustees did not identify any particular information that was controlling, and different Trustees may have attributed different weights to the various factors. However, for each Fund, the Trustees determined that the overall arrangements between the Fund and DMC, as provided in theits respective New Investment Advisory Agreements,Agreement, including the proposed advisory feefees and

         Certain of these considerations are discussed in more detail below.

         In making itstheir decision relating to the approval of each Fund’s New Investment Advisory Agreement, the Independent Trustees gave attention to all information furnished, however, thefurnished. The following discussion, however, identifies the primary factors taken into account by the Trustees and the conclusions reached in approving the New Investment Advisory Agreements.

         Nature, Extent, and Quality of ServiceService.. The Trustees considered the services historically provided by DMC to the Funds and their shareholders. In reviewing the nature, extent, and quality of services, the Boards considered that the New Investment Advisory Agreements will be substantially similar to the Current Investment Advisory Agreements (as discussed above under "The“The New Investment Advisory Agreements"Agreements”), and they therefore considered the many reports furnished to them throughout the 2008 and 2009 at regular Board meetings covering matters such as the relative performance of the Funds; the compliance of portfolio managers with the investment policies, strategies, and restrictions for the Funds; the compliance of management personnel with the Code of Ethics adopted throughout the Delaware Investments®Family of Funds complex;Funds; and the adherence to fair value pricing procedures as established by the Boards. The Trustees were pleased with the current staffing of DMC and the emphasis placed on research

    17


    and risk management in the investment process. Favorable consideration was given to DMC’s efforts to maintain expenditures and, in some instances, increase financial and human resources committed to Fund matters.

         The Boards also considered the transfer agent and shareholder services that would continue to be provided to Fund shareholders by DMC’s affiliate, Delaware Service Company, Inc. (“DSC”).DSC. The BoardBoards routinely reviewsreview and hashave been impressed by DSC’s performance. The Trustees noted, in particular, DSC’s commitment to maintain a high level of service as well as DMC’sDSC’s expenditures to improve the delivery of shareholder services. The Boards were assured that shareholders would continue to receive the benefits provided to Fund shareholders by being part of the Delaware Investments Family of Funds, including each shareholder’s ability to exchange an investment in one Delaware Investments Fund for the same class of shares in another Delaware Investments Fund without a sales charge, to reinvest Fund dividends into additional shares of any of the Funds, and the privilege to combine holdings in other Funds to obtain a reduced sales charge. For

         Based on the foregoing reasons,information provided by DMC and Macquarie Group, including that Macquarie Group and DMC currently expected no material changes as a result of the Transaction in (i) personnel or operations of DMC or (ii) third party service providers to the Funds, the Boards were satisfied withconcluded that the satisfactory nature, extent, and quality of services currently provided to the overallFunds and their shareholders were very likely to continue under the New Investment Advisory Agreements. Moreover, the Boards concluded that the Funds would probably benefit from the expanded distribution resources that would become available to Delaware Investments following the Transaction. The Boards also concluded that it was very unlikely that any “unfair burden” would be imposed on any of the Funds for the first two years following the Closing as a result of the Transaction. Consequently, the Boards concluded that they did not expect the Transaction to result in any adverse changes in the nature, quality, or extent of services (including investment management, distribution, or other shareholder services) currently provided by DMC.to the Funds and their shareholders.

         Investment Performance.The TrusteesBoards considered the overall investment performance of DMC and the Funds. The Trustees placed significant emphasis on the investment performance of the Funds in view of its importance to shareholders. Although the Trustees givegave appropriate consideration to performance reports and discussions with portfolio managers at Board meetings throughout the year, the Trustees gave particular weight to their review of investment performance in connection with the approval of the Current Investment Advisory Agreements at the in-personBoard meeting held in May 2009. At that meeting, the Trustees reviewed Lipper reports prepared for each Fund showingprepared by Lipper, Inc., an independent statistical compilation organization (“Lipper”), which showed the Fund’s investment performance as of December 31, 2008 in comparison to a group of funds selected by Lipper as being similar to suchthe Fund (the “Performance Universe”). A fund with the best performance ranked first, and a fund with the poorest performance ranked last. The highest/best performing 25% of funds in the Performance Universe makemade up the first quartile; the next 25% makemade up the second quartile; the next 25% makemade up the third quartile; and the poorest/worst performing 25% of funds in the Performance Universe makemade up the fourth quartile. Comparative annualizedAnnualized investment performance for each Fund was shown for the past 1-, 3 3-, 5-, and 10-year periods.periods, to the extent applicable, compared to that of the Performance Universe. The Boards’ objective was that each Fund’s performance for the periods considered be at or above the median of its Performance Universe.

    During the May 2009 agreement review process, the Trustees observed the significant improvements to relative investment performance of the funds in the Delaware Investments® Family of Funds as compared to the information presented at the May 2008 meeting.funds’ performance as of December 31, 2007.

         At their meeting on September 3, 2009, the Trustees, examinedincluding the Independent Trustees in consultation with their independent counsel, updated their examination of the investment performance of all of the fundseach fund in the Delaware Investments Family

    21


    of Funds. The Trustees compared the performance of each fund in the Delaware Investments® Family of Funds to that of its respective Performance Universe for the 1-, 3-, 5-, and 10-year periods ended June 30, 2009 and compared its relative investment performance against the corresponding relative investment performance of each fund in the Delaware Investments Family of Funds relative to that of its respective peer group for the 1-, 3 , 5-, and 10-year periods ended June 30, 2009 against the corresponding relative investment performance of the Funds for such time periods ended December 31, 2008.2008, to the extent applicable. As of June 30, 2009, 2930 of the funds in the Delaware Investments Family of Funds had investment performance relative to that of the respective peer groupsPerformance Universe that was as good as or better than the corresponding relative investment performance at December 31, 2008 for all fourapplicable time periods. At June 30, 2009, an additional 9six funds in the Delaware Investments Family of Funds had investment performance relative to that of their respective peer groupPerformance Universe that was better than the corresponding relative investment performance at December 31, 2008 for threea majority of the fourapplicable time periods. At June 30, 2009, 1915 additional funds in the Delaware Investments Family of Funds had investment performance relative to that of their respective peer groupPerformance Universe that was approximately the same as that ofbetter than the corresponding relative investment performance at December 31, 2008 for an equal number of the applicable time periods, and only 2229 funds in the Delaware Investments Family of Funds had poorer relative investment performance at June 30, 2009 compared to that at December 31, 2008.

    The Trustees,Boards therefore concluded that the investment performance of the funds in the Delaware Investments Family of Funds on an aggregate basis had continued to improve relative to their respective peer groupsPerformance Universe since the data reviewed at the May 2009 meeting. Themeeting.Based on information provided by DMC and Macquarie Group, the Boards concluded that neither the Transaction nor the New Investment Advisory Agreement would likely have an adverse effect on the investment performance of any Fund because (i) DMC and Macquarie Group did not currently expect the Transaction to cause any material change to the Funds’ portfolio management teams responsible for investment performance, which the Boards found to be satisfactory and improving, (ii) as discussed in more detail below, the Funds’ expenses were not expected to increase as a result of the Transaction, (iii) the Trustees also notedthought it was extremely unlikely that the proposed continuity of DMC’s operations after the TransactionFunds would bebear any Transaction-related expenses, and (iv) there was not expected to mitigatebe any adverse impact“unfair burden” imposed on Fund performance arising fromthe Funds as a result of the Transaction.

         Comparative ExpensesExpenses.. The Trustees also evaluated expense comparison data for the Delaware Investments®Family of Funds previously considered in May 2009. At that meeting, DMC had provided the Boards with information on pricing levels and fee structures for the Funds and comparative funds. The Trustees focused on the comparative analysis of the effective management fees and total expense ratios of each Fund versus the effective management fees and expense ratios of a group of funds selected by Lipper as being similar to each Fund (the “Expense Group”). In reviewing comparative costs, each

    22


    Fund’s contractual management fee and the actual management fee incurred by the Fund were compared with the

    18


    contractual management fees (assuming all funds in the Expense Group were similar in size to the Fund) and actual management fees (as reported by each fund) of other funds within the Expense Group, taking into account any applicable breakpoints and fee waivers.limitations. Each Fund’s total expenses were also compared with those of its Expense Group. The Trustees also considered fees paid to Delaware Investments for non-management services. The Trustees'Trustees’ objective was for each Fund’s total expense ratio to be competitive with that of the funds in the Expense Group. According to the Lipper reports furnished for the May 2009 meeting, the effective management fees and total expense ratios for a majority of the funds in the Delaware Investments® Family of Funds were below the respective Expense Group median. At the September 3, 2009 meeting, DMC advised the Boards noted that the more recent comparative expenses for the Funds remained consistent with the previous review in May 2009.2009, and consequently the Trustees concluded that expenses of the Funds were satisfactory.

         The Boards also considered the Expense Agreement in evaluating Fund expenses. The Expense Agreement provides that LNIC and Macquarie Bank Limited will pay or reimburse the Trusts for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses in connection with the Transaction and the consideration of the New Investment Advisory Agreements (subject to certain limited exceptions). These obligations of LNIC and Macquarie Bank Limited apply regardless of whether or not the Transaction is consummated. As a result, the Funds will bear no costs in connection with or related to evaluating the Transaction or seeking or obtaining shareholder approval of the New Investment Advisory Agreements (other than as described above).

         Based on information provided by DMC and Macquarie Group, the Boards concluded that neither the Transaction nor the New Investment Advisory Agreements would likely have an adverse effect on the Funds’ expenses because (i) each Fund’s contractual fee rates under the New Investment Advisory Agreements would remain the same, (ii) the Boards were assured by DMC and Macquarie Group that there wasthey had no current intention to change DMC’s existing voluntary expense waiverslimitations and reimbursement policy as a result of the Transaction, (iii) under the Expense Agreement, the Funds would be reimbursed for all reasonable out-of-pocket costs and that,expenses in connection with the Transaction and the related proxy solicitation (subject to certain limited exceptions), (iv) consistent with Section 15(f) of the 1940 Act, no “unfair burden” would be imposed on the Funds for the first two years after the closingClosing, and (v) the expense ratios of certain Funds might decline as a result of the Transaction.possible increased investment in Delaware Investments by Macquarie Group, as discussed below under “Economies of Scale.”

    Management ProfitabilityProfitability.. The At their meeting on September 3, 2009, the Boards once again considered the level of profits realized by DMCevaluated DMC’s profitability in connection with the operation of the Funds. The Boards had previously considered the level of profits realized by DMCDMC’s profitability in connection with the operation of the Funds at their May 2009 meeting. At that meeting, the Boards reviewed the Investment Management Profitability Analysis addressingan analysis that addressed the overall profitability of Delaware Investments’ business in providing management and other services to each of the Funds and the Delaware Investments® Family of Funds as a whole. Specific attention was given to the methodology followed in allocating costs for the purpose of determining profitability.

    At the May 2009 meeting, representatives of DMC had stated that the level of profits of DMC, to a certain extent, reflectreflected operational cost savings and efficiencies initiated by Delaware Investments (including DMC and its affiliates that provide services to the Funds). The Boards considered Delaware Investments’ efforts to improve services provided to Fund shareholders and to meet additional regulatory and compliance requirements resulting from recent industry-wide SEC initiativesinitiatives. At that meeting, the Boards found that the management fees charged were reasonable in light of the services rendered and the level of profitability of DMC. At the September 3, 2009 meeting, DMC advised the Boards that DMC did not expect the Transaction to affect materially the profitability of Delaware Investments compared to the level of profitability considered during the May 2009 review. Moreover, the Trustees reviewedpro forma balance sheets of certain key companies in Delaware Investments as of June 30, 2009 (which were provided by Macquarie Group and DMC in response to the Trustees’ requests), and evaluated the projections of Delaware Investments’ capitalization following the Transaction for purposes of evaluating the financial ability of Delaware Investments to continue to provide the nature, extent, and quality of services as it had under the Current Investment Advisory Agreement.

         Based on information provided by DMC and Macquarie Group, the Boards concluded that DMC and Delaware Investments would be sufficiently capitalized following the Transaction to continue the same level and quality of services to the Funds under the New Investment Advisory Agreements as was the case under the Current Investment Advisory Agreements. The Board also concluded that Macquarie Group had sufficient financial strength and resources, as well as an ongoing commitment to a global asset management business, to continue investing in Delaware Investments, including DMC to the extent that Macquarie Group determined it was appropriate. Finally, because services and costs were expected to be substantially the same (and that DMC had represented that, correspondingly, profitability would be about the same), under the New Investment Advisory Agreements as under the Current Investment Advisory Agreements, the Trustees concluded that the profitability of Delaware Investments would not result in an inequitable charge on the Funds or

    24


    their shareholders. Accordingly, the Boards concluded that the fees charged under the New Investment Advisory Agreements would be reasonable in light of the services to be provided and the expected profitability of DMC.

    Economies of Scale. The Trustees considered whether economies of scale would be realized by Delaware Investments as each Fund’s assets increase and the extent to which any economies of scale would be reflected in the management fees charged. The Trustees took into account DMC’s practice of maintaining the competitive nature of management fees based on its analysis of fees charged by comparable funds. DMC management believed, and the Boards agreed, that the Funds were priced with breakpoints and relatively low management fees to reflect potential economies of scale to Fund shareholders.

         The Boards also acknowledged Macquarie Group’s statement that the Transaction would not by itself immediately provide additional economies of scale given Macquarie Group’s limited presence in the U.S. mutual fund market. Nonetheless, the Trustees concluded that additional economies of scale could potentially be achieved in the future if DMC were owned by Macquarie Group as a result of Macquarie Group’s willingness to invest additional amounts in Delaware Investments if appropriate opportunities arise. The Board further concluded that potential economies of scale could be achieved as a result of Delaware Investments’ expanded distribution capabilities arising from the Transaction, as well as opportunities that might arise from Macquarie Group’s global asset management business.

    Fall-Out Benefits. The Boards acknowledged that DMC would continue to benefit from soft dollar arrangements using portfolio brokerage of each Fund that invests in equity securities and that DMC’s profitability would likely be somewhat lower without the benefit of practices with respect to allocating Fund portfolio brokerage for brokerage and research services. The Boards also considered that Macquarie Group and Delaware Investments may derive reputational, strategic, and other benefits from their association with the Delaware Investments® Family of Funds, including service relationships with DMC, DSC, and DDLP, and evaluated the extent to which Delaware Investments might derive ancillary benefits from Fund operations, including the potential for procuring additional business as a result of the prestige and visibility associated with its role as service provider to the Delaware Investments Family of Funds and the benefits from allocation of Fund brokerage to improve trading efficiencies. TheHowever, the Boards foundconcluded that (i) any such benefits under the New Investment Advisory Agreements would not be dissimilar from those existing under the Current Investment Advisory Agreements, (ii) such benefits did not impose a cost or burden on the Funds or their shareholders, and (iii) such benefits would probably have an indirectly beneficial effect on the Funds and their shareholders because of the added importance that DMC and Macquarie Group might attach to the Funds as a result of the fall-out benefits that the management fees were reasonableFunds conveyed.

    The Transaction Agreement.The Trustees reviewed the Transaction Agreement in lightadvance of the services rendered and the level of profitability of DMC. At the September 3, 2009 meeting, DMC advised the Boards that DMC did not expect the Transaction to affect materially the profitability of Delaware Investments compared to the level of profitability considered during the May 2009 review. The Boards also noted Macquarie Group’s commitment to maintain sufficient capitalization of DMC and Delaware Investments to continue the same level and quality of services to the Funds.

    Economies of Scale.meeting. The Trustees considered whether economiesthe terms of scale would be realized by Delaware Investments as each Fund’s assets increase and the extent to which any economies of scale would be reflected in the management fees charged. The Trustees took into account DMC's practice of maintaining the competitive nature of management fees based on its benchmarking analysis for the Funds. Management believed, and the Boards agreed, that the Funds were priced with relatively low management fees to reflect potential economies of scale up front. The Boards also acknowledged Macquarie Group’s statement that the Transaction would not by itself immediately provide additional economiesAgreement, including those related to Section 15(f) of scale giventhe 1940 Act and that LNIC and Macquarie Group’s limited presence inBank Limited will bear the U.S. mutual fund market. Nonetheless,expenses related to the Funds’ proxy solicitation. At the meeting, the Trustees believed that additional economies of scale could potentially be achieved in the future if DMC were owned

    19


    by Macquarie Group as a result of Macquarie Group’s willingness to invest further in DMC’s asset management business, particularly with respect to distribution.

    Fall-Out Benefits.The Trustees considered that DMC would continue to benefit from soft dollar arrangements using portfolio brokerage of each Fund that invests in equity securities. They reviewed information about practices with respect to allocating portfolio brokerage for brokerage and research services. The Trustees recognized that DMC’s profitability would be somewhat lower without these benefits. The Trustees noted that DMC may derive reputational and other benefits from their association with each Fund.

    Other Board Considerations.As previously noted at the May 2009 meeting, the Boards separately received and reviewed independent historical and comparative reports prepared by Lipper. The Lipper reports compared each Fund’s investment performance and expenses with those of other comparable mutual funds in the peer group. The Independent Trustees discussed such reports with independent legal counsel at the meeting. The Boards requested and received certain information regarding the policies of DMC with respect to advisory fee levels and its philosophy with respect to breakpoints; the structure of portfolio manager compensation; DMC’s profitability; as well as any constraints or limitations on the availability of securities in certain investment styles that might inhibit DMC’s ability to invest fully in accordance with Fund policies. At the in-person meeting on September 3, 2009, the Boards noted that there had been no significant changes to the Lipper or other information reported at the May 2009 meeting. The Board was told that the Transaction and Macquarie Group’s acquisition of Delaware Investments would not, by itself, be expected to materially change this information.

    The Transaction.The Trustees received and reviewed the Transaction Agreement. The Trustees considered the purchase price to be paid and noted the conditions forto the closing of the Transaction,Closing, including the requirements for obtaining consents to the change in control from DMC’sDelaware Investments’ advisory clients, such as the Funds. The Trustees were toldbelieved that DMC wouldDelaware Investments’ ability to continue to manage LNC’sthe general account assets of certain LNC subsidiaries was important because it allowed Delaware Investments’ overhead expenses to be spread over a larger base of assets under management and thus potentially reduce costs to the Funds and their shareholders as compared to the costs that might apply if Delaware Investments did not manage the general account assets. TheConsequently, the Trustees also consideredevaluated the representations, warranties, and covenants made byprovisions of the partiesTransaction Agreement related to the Transaction, includingmanagement of those related Section 15(f) of the 1940 Act.assets and concluded that those provisions were satisfactory and likely to be beneficial to Fund shareholders.

         Board Review of Macquarie Group.The Trustees reviewed detailed information supplied by Macquarie Group about its operations as well as other information regarding Macquarie Group provided by their independent legal counsel. By reviewing a pro forma balance sheet of Delaware Investments as of the closing of the Transaction (which was provided by Macquarie Group in responsecounsel to the Trustees’ request), the Trustees considered Macquarie Group’s projections of Delaware Investments’ capitalization following the Transaction andIndependent Trustees. As previously noted, to consider Delaware Investments’ ability to continue to provide the same level and quality of services to the Funds, the Boards requested, received and reviewedpro forma balance sheets of certain key companies in Delaware Investments as of June 30, 2009, which projected Delaware Investments’ capitalization following the Transaction. Based on this review, the Trustees concluded that Delaware Investments would continue to have the financial ability to maintain the high quality of services required by the Funds. The Trustees noted that there would be a limited transition period during which some services previously provided by LNC to Delaware Investments would continue to be provided by Macquarie GroupLNC after the Closing.Closing, and concluded that this arrangement would help minimize disruption in Delaware Investments’ provision of services to the Funds following the Transaction.

         Macquarie Group described its proposed changes to Delaware Investments’ corporate governance, primarily through the anticipated addition of certain Macquarie Group officers to DMHI’s board of directors and to Delaware Investments’ distribution and product management affiliates.

    The Trustees considered favorably Macquarie Group’s statement that there would beit had no significantcurrent intention to change to the executive, administrative, investment, or support staff of Delaware Investments.Investments in any significant way as a result of the Transaction. Macquarie Group described the proposed harmonization of the compensation system in use at Delaware Investments with the compensation plan used by Macquarie Group,

    20


    including short-term and

    26


    long-term incentive compensation and equity interests for executive officers and investment personnel as well as support staff.personnel. Macquarie Group described its current intention to enhance certain administrative and operationoperational areas of DMC following the Transaction, including information technology, product management, and risk management.

         The Trustees alsoBoards considered Macquarie Group’s support for Delaware Investments’ plans for Fund distribution by transferring wholesalers from Lincoln Financial Distributors, Inc., LNC’s retail distributor, to Delaware Investments, and Macquarie Group’s current intention to leave the Funds’ other service providers in place.

         Noting that The Boards also considered Macquarie Group’s current strategic plans to increase its asset management isactivities, one of its core businesses, Macquarie Group described for the Boards’ consideration its current strategic plans to grow its asset management activities, particularly in the Northern Hemisphere. The Boards considered Macquarie Group’s representationNorth America, and its statement that theits acquisition of DMC is an important component of this strategic growth and the establishment of a significant presence in the United States. Based in part on the information provided by DMC and Macquarie Group, the Boards concluded that Macquarie Group’s acquisition of Delaware Investments could potentially enhance the nature, quality, and extent of services provided to the Funds and their shareholders.

         AsDMC and Macquarie Group explained to the Boards that, as a subsidiary of an Australian bank,authorized deposit-taking institution, Delaware Investments would bebecome subject to certain Australian bank regulationsregulatory oversight and requirements following the Transaction. The Boards reviewed material supplied by Macquarie Group describing the new requirements to which Delaware Investments would be subject,Transaction, including those related to disclosure, fund holdings, affiliated transactions, advisory agreements, and fee waivers. Theexpense limitation agreements. DMC and Macquarie Group also explained to the Boards further consideredthat certain exemptive relief that had been provided to Macquarie Group by the Australian bank regulator in anticipation of the Transaction, as well asand the Boards were informed of the nature of future relief that may be required. Based on the information provided and representations made by DMC and Macquarie Group, represented, and the Boards concurred,Board concluded that the Australian bank regulatory requirements would not have a material effect on the operations of DMC or the Funds, including DMC’s ability to continue in its discretion to provide voluntary expense waiverslimitations and reimbursements to the Funds or to contribute appropriate levels of seed capital to new Funds.funds.

         The TrusteesBoards noted that DMC has placed brokerage transactions with a broker-dealerbroker/ dealer affiliate of Macquarie Group and received research in connection with those transactions. In addition, certain other Macquarie Group affiliates participate as underwriters for securities offerings outside of the United States. TheConsequently, the Boards determined to have DMC report to them regularly to monitor any brokerage transactions with Macquarie Group affiliates for compliance with the requirements of Section 15(f) and Section 17(e) of the 1940 Act, and to ensure compliance with the Funds’ procedures under Rule 10f-3 promulgated under the 1940 Act for offerings in which a Macquarie Group affiliate is a member of the underwriting syndicate.

    ConclusionConclusion.. The Independent Trustees of each FundTrust deliberated in executive session; the entire Board of each Fund, including the Independent Trustees, then approved each New Investment Advisory Agreement. The Boards concluded that the advisory fee rate under each New Investment Advisory Agreement is reasonable in relation to the services provided and that execution of the New Investment Advisory Agreement is in the best interests of the shareholders. For each Fund, the Trustees noted that they had concluded in their most recent advisory agreement continuance considerations in May 2009 that the management fees and total expense ratios were at acceptable levels in light of the quality of services provided to the Funds and in comparison to those of the Funds’ respective peer group;groups; that the advisory fee schedule would not be increased and would stay the same for all of the Funds; that the total expense ratio had not changed materially since that determination; and that DMC had represented that the overall expenses for each Fund were not expected to be adversely affected by the Transaction. On that basis, the Trustees concluded that the total expense ratio and proposed advisory fee for each such Fund anticipated to result from the Transaction was acceptable. The Trustees also noted, with respect to the Funds that currently had the benefit of voluntary fee waivers,limitations, that Macquarie presently intendedGroup had no present intention to continue such waivers.cause DMC to alter any voluntary expense limitations or reimbursements currently in effect for the Funds. On that basis, the Trustees concluded that the total expense ratio and proposed advisory fee for the Funds anticipated to result from the Transaction was acceptable. In approving each New Investment Advisory Agreement, each Board stated that it anticipated reviewing the continuance of the agreement in advance of the expiration of the initial two-year period.

    Required Votevote

         To become effective with respect to a particular Fund, the New Investment Advisory Agreement for that Fund must be approved by a 1940 Act Majority vote of the Fund’s outstanding voting securities. The approval of one Fund’s New Investment Advisory Agreement is not contingent on the approval of any other Fund’s New Investment Advisory Agreement. Each New Investment Advisory Agreement was approved separately by the Independent Trustees and by the Board of the applicable Trust as a whole after consideration of all factors that it determined to be relevant to its deliberations, including those discussed above. The Board of each Trust also determined to submit each applicable Fund’s New Investment Advisory Agreement for consideration by the shareholders of the Fund. If the shareholders of a Fund do not approve the Fund’s New Investment Advisory Agreement, the Board of suchthat Fund will consider other possible courses of action for the Fund.Fund, including entering into an interim advisory agreement with DMC pursuant to Rule 15a-4 of the 1940 Act.

    FOR THE REASONS DISCUSSED ABOVE, THE BOARD OF
    EACH FUNDTRUST UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE FOR
    THE
    APPROVAL OF THE NEW INVESTMENT ADVISORY AGREEMENT.

    Section 15(f) of the 1940 Act

         The Boards have been advised that the parties intend to rely on Section 15(f) of the 1940 Act, which provides that an owner (such as LNC and LNIC) of an investment adviser (such as DMC) to an investment company (such as a Fund) may receive payment or benefit in connection with the sale of an interest in the investment adviser only if two conditions are satisfied. The first condition is that during the three-year period following the transaction, at least 75% of the investment company’s board must not be “interested persons” (as defined in the 1940 Act) of the investment adviser or its predecessor. Each Fund’s Board currently meets this test and is expected to do so after the Transaction is completed. Second, no “unfair burden” can be imposed on the investment company as a result of the transaction. An “unfair burden” includes any arrangement during the two-year period after the transaction where the investment adviser (or predecessor or successor adviser), or any of its “interested persons” (as defined in the 1940 Act), receive or is entitled to receive any compensation, directly or indirectly, (i) from any person in connection with the purchase or sale of securities or other property to, from or on behalf of the investment company (other than bona fide ordinary compensation as principal underwriter for the investment company) or (ii) from the investment company or its shareholders (other than fees for bona fide investment advisory or other services). Macquarie Group has agreed under the Transaction Agreement that, following the Closing, to the extent within its control, it will not take or fail to take (or cause its affiliates to take or fail to take) any action that would have the effect, directly or indirectly, of causing the requirements of Section 15(f) of the 1940 Act not to be met in respect of the Transaction. In that regard, from and after the Closing date and to the extent within its control, the Macquarie Group has agreed to conduct its business (and to cause each of its affiliates to conduct its business) so as to assure that the two aforementioned conditions are satisfied.

The persons named as proxies on the enclosed proxy cards will vote their proxies in accordance with the recommendations of Managementtheir discretion on questions of adjournment and any other items other(other than the ProposalsProposals) that properly come before the Meeting.

Abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on Proposal 1 but will have the same effect as a vote “against” Proposal 2. Broker non-votes are proxies from brokers or nominees indicating that they have not received voting instructions from the beneficial owner or other person entitled to vote shares on a particular matter for which the brokers or nominees do not have discretionary authority to vote. This generally occurs only when there is another matter at the meeting for which the brokers or nominees do have discretionary authority to vote, such as Proposal 1.

You may also vote by completing, signing, and returning the enclosed proxy card in the enclosed postage paid envelope, or by telephone or through the Internet. If you return your signed proxy card or vote by telephone or through the Internet, your vote will be officially cast at the Meeting by the persons appointed as proxies. A proxy card is, in essence, a ballot. If you sign and date the proxy card but give no voting instructions, your shares will be voted in favor of all the Trustee Nominees in Proposal 1 and “For” Proposal 2. Your proxies will also be voted in accordance with the recommendationsdiscretion of Managementthe persons appointed as proxies on any other matters that may properly come before the Meeting or any adjournment or postponement of the Meeting, although management of the Funds does not expect any such matters to come before the Meeting.

    APPENDIX H - PRE-APPROVAL POLICIES AND PROCEDURES

    The Trust’s Audit Committee has adopted Pre-Approval Policies and Procedures, which are set forth below.

    AUDIT COMMITTEE OF THE
    DELAWARE INVESTMENTS FAMILY OF FUNDS


    PROCEDURES FOR ENGAGEMENT

    OF

    INDEPENDENT AUDITORS

    FOR AUDIT AND NON-AUDIT SERVICES

    I.ObjectiveObjective

    These procedures (the “Procedures”) set forth the understanding of the Audit Committee of the Delaware Investments Family of Funds (the “Funds”) regarding the retention of the Funds’ independent auditors (the “Auditors”) to provide: (i) audit and permissible non-audit services to the Funds; (ii) non-audit services to the Funds’ investment advisers, and to any “control affiliates” (as defined below) of such investment advisers, that relate directly to the Funds’ operations or financial reporting; and (iii) certain other non-audit services to the Funds’ investment advisers and their control affiliates. The purpose of these Procedures is to ensure the Auditors’ independence and objectivity with respect to their audit services to the Funds.

    II.Approval Procedures

    A.Services provided to the Funds.

    The engagement of the Auditors to provide audit or non-audit services to the Funds (referred to herein as “Fund Services”) shall be approved by the Funds’ Audit Committee prior to the commencement of any such engagement.

    The engagement of the Auditors to provide the Fund Services listed on Annex I-A hereto, which include services customarily required by one or more of the Funds in the ordinary course of their operations, is hereby approved by the Audit Committee.

    The engagement of the Auditors to provide any other Fund Services shall require prior approval by the Audit Committee and/or by the Chairperson or another member of the Audit Committee in accordance with Section IV of these Procedures.

    H-1


    The Auditors shall report to the Audit Committee at each of its regular meetings regarding all Fund Services initiated since the last such report was rendered, including a general description of the services and projected fees, and the means by which such Fund Services were approved by the Audit Committee (i.e., whether listed on Annex I-A or specifically approved in accordance with Section IV).

    B.Fund-related services provided to Adviser entities.

    H-1


    The engagement of the Auditors to provide non-audit services to the Funds’ investment advisers, or to any control affiliates of such investment advisers, that relate directly to the Funds’ operations or financial reporting (referred to herein as “Fund-Related Adviser Services”) shall be approved by the Funds’ Audit Committee prior to the commencement of any such engagement. For purposes of these Procedures, the term “control affiliate” means any entity controlling, controlled by, or under common control with a Fund’s investment adviser that provides ongoing services to a Fund, and the term “investment adviser” is deemed to exclude any unaffiliated sub-adviser whose role is primarily portfolio management and is sub-contracted or overseen by a Fund’s investment adviser. Attached as Annex II is a list of parties deemed to be either an investment adviser to a Fund or a control affiliate of any such investment adviser (collectively referred to herein as “Adviser entities”) for purposes of these Procedures.

    The engagement of the Auditors to provide the Fund-Related Adviser Services listed on Annex I-B, which include services customarily required by one or more Adviser entities in the ordinary course of their operations, is hereby approved by the Audit Committee.

    The engagement of the Auditors to provide any other Fund-Related Adviser Services shall require prior approval by the Audit Committee and/or by the Chairperson or another member of the Audit Committee in accordance with Section IV of these Procedures.

    The Auditors shall report to the Audit Committee at each of its regular meetings regarding all Fund-Related Adviser Services initiated since the last such report was rendered, including a general description of the services and projected fees, and the means by which such Fund-Related Adviser Services were approved by the Audit Committee (i.e., whether listed on Annex I-B or specifically approved in accordance with Section IV).

    C.Certain other services provided to Adviser entities.

    The Audit Committee recognizes that there are cases where services proposed to be provided by the Auditors to Adviser entities are not Fund-Related Adviser Services within the meaning of these Procedures, but nonetheless may be relevant to

    H-2


    the Committee’s ongoing evaluation of the Auditors’ independence and objectivity with respect to their audit services to the Funds. As a result, in all cases where an Adviser entity engages the Auditors to provide non-audit services that are not Fund Services or Fund-Related Adviser Services and the projected fees for such engagement exceed $25,000, the Auditors will notify the Audit Committee not later than its next meeting. Such notification shall include a general description of the services to be provided, the entity that is to be the recipient of such services and the projected fees.

    III.Internal Controls

    The Audit Committee expects the Auditors to implement and maintain effective internal controls to: (A) monitor the Auditors’ independence; (B) prevent the Auditors from providing any impermissible non-audit services to the Funds; (C) prevent the Auditors from providing any Fund Services or Fund-Related Adviser Services without first obtaining assurances that any pre-approval required by these Procedures has been obtained; and (D) tabulate and calculate its fees

    H-2


    that are required to be disclosed annually in compliance with Independence Standards Board No. 1.

    WITNESSETH:

         WHEREAS, the Trust has been organized and operates as an investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”);

         WHEREAS, each Fund engages in the business of investing and reinvesting its assets in securities;

         WHEREAS, the Investment Manager is registered under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940, as amended (the “Advisers Act”), as an investment adviser and engages in the business of providing investment management services; and

         WHEREAS, the Trust, on behalf of each Fund, and the Investment Manager desire to enter into this Agreement so that the Investment Manager may provide investment management services to each Fund.

         NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants herein contained, and each of the parties hereto intending to be legally bound, it is agreed as follows:

         1. The Trust hereby employs the Investment Manager to manage the investment and reinvestment of each Fund’s assets and to administer its investment affairs,,subject to the direction of the Trust’s Board of Trustees and officers for the period and on the terms hereinafter set forth. The Investment Manager hereby accepts such employment and agrees during such period to render the services and assume the obligations herein set forth for the compensation herein provided. The Investment Manager shall for all purposes herein be deemed to be an independent contractor, and shall, unless otherwise expressly provided and authorized, have no authority to act for or represent the Trust or the Funds in any way, or in any way be deemed an agent of the Trust or the Funds. The Investment Manager shall regularly make decisions as to what securities and other instruments to purchase and sell on behalf of each Fund and shall effect the purchase and sale of such investments in furtherance of each Fund’s investment objectives and policies and shall furnish the Board of Trustees of the Trust with such information and reports regarding each Fund’s investments as the Investment

    I-1


    Manager deems appropriate or as the Trustees of the Trust may reasonably request. Such decisions and services shall include exercising discretion regarding any voting rights, rights to consent to corporate actions and any other rights pertaining to each Fund’s investment securities.

         2. The Trust shall conduct its own business and affairs and shall bear the expenses and salaries necessary and incidental thereto, including, but not in limitation of the foregoing, the costs incurred in: the maintenance of its corporate existence; the maintenance of its own books, records and procedures; dealing with its own shareholders; the payment of dividends; transfer of shares, including

    I-1


    issuance, redemption and repurchase of shares; preparation of share certificates; reports and notices to shareholders; calling and holding of shareholders’ and trustees’ meetings; miscellaneous office expenses; brokerage commissions; custodian fees; legal, auditing, fund accounting, and financial administration fees; taxes; federal and state registration fees; and other costs and expenses approved by the Board of Trustees.

Trustees, officers and employees of the Investment Manager who are directors, trustees, officers and/or employees of these investment companies shall not receive any compensation from such companies for acting in such dual capacity.

         In the conduct of the respective businesses of the parties hereto and in the performance of this Agreement, the Trust and Investment Manager may share facilities common to each, which may include legal and accounting personnel, with appropriate proration of expenses between them.

         3. (a) Subject to the primary objective of obtaining the best execution, the Investment Manager may place orders for the purchase and sale of portfolio securities and other instruments with such broker/dealers selected by the Investment Manager who provide statistical, factual and financial information and services to the Trust, to the Investment Manager, to any sub-adviser (as defined in Paragraph 5 hereof, a “Sub-Adviser”) or to any other fund or account for which the Investment Manager or any Sub-Adviser provides investment advisory services and/or with broker/dealers who sell shares of the Trust or who sell shares of any other investment company (or series thereof) for which the Investment Manager or any Sub-Adviser provides investment advisory services. Broker/dealers who sell shares of any investment companies or series thereof for which the Investment Manager or Sub-Adviser provides investment advisory services shall only receive orders for the purchase or sale of portfolio securities to the extent that the placing of such orders is in compliance with the rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. (“FINRA”) and does not take into account such broker/dealer’s promotion or sale of such shares.

    I-2

        4. As compensation for the investment services to be rendered to a particular FundparticularFund by the Investment Manager under the provisions of this Agreement, the Trust shall pay monthly to the Investment Manager exclusively from that Fund’s assets, a fee based on the average daily net assets of that Fund during the month. Such fee shall be calculated in accordance with the fee schedule applicable to that Fund as set forth in Exhibit A hereto.

         If this Agreement is terminated prior to the end of any calendar month with respect to a particular Fund, the management fee for such Fund shall be prorated for the portion of any month in which this Agreement is in effect with respect to such Fund according to the proportion which the number of calendar days during which the Agreement is in effect bears to the number of calendar days in the month, and shall be payable within 10 calendar days after the date of termination.

    I-2

         8. In the absence of willful misfeasance, bad faith, gross negligence, or a reckless disregard of the performance of its duties as the Investment Manager to the Trust, the Investment Manager shall not be subject to liability to the Trust or to any shareholder of the Trust for any action or omission in the course of, or connected with, rendering services hereunder or for any losses that may be sustained in the purchase, holding or sale of any security, or otherwise.

    (b)This Agreement (and Exhibit A hereto) may be amended without the approval of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Fund if the amendment relates solely to a management fee reduction or other change that is permitted or not prohibited under then current federal law, rule, regulation or SEC staff interpretation thereof to be made without shareholder approval. This Agreement may be amended from time to time pursuant to a written agreement executed by the Trust, on behalf of the applicable Fund, and the Investment Manager.

    (c)This Agreement may be terminated as to any Fund by the Trust at any time, without the payment of a penalty, on sixty days’ written notice to the Investment Manager of the Trust’s intention to do so, pursuant to action by the Board of Trustees of the Trust or pursuant to the vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities
