Important proxy vote for Davis Financial Fund shareholders — please encourage your clients to participate
Dear Investment Adviser:
As you know, Davis Funds is asking all Davis Financial Fund shareholders to vote on an important proxy measure. This is a major initiative and we'd like you to help us inform your clients about the process.
Please encourage your clients to vote promptly in order to avoid receiving follow-up phone calls and mailings. To ensure we reach the number of required votes, shareholders who have not voted are being contacted again. Also, shareholders may have received more than one set of proxy materials in the mail — one for each separate account. To vote all shares, they must vote all ballots. You can direct them to davisfunds.com/proxy for more information and access to electronic voting, which is a quick and simple process. You may also suggest that those shareholders who received ballots in the mail sign and return them.
As a general matter, we believe that the proposal will give the Investment Manager more flexibility in implementing the Fund's investment strategy.
If you have questions, please call us at 800/279-2279.
Thank you for your continued support of Davis Funds.
