The Company will be launching a pilot of the Proxy Voting Choice programme for the Funds, beginning on 16 January 2026.
Details of the Pilot Programme:
The State Street Investment Management Proxy Voting Choice programme (the "Programme") empowers investors, including those who own eligible ETFs and mutual funds, to direct the proxy voting of shares owned by the eligible funds in which they are invested. This Programme is expanding to enable Shareholders of the Funds to select a voting policy that will apply in relation to a pro‐rata portion of the shares (available for voting) held by the Funds. We expect to run the pilot for around one year. We will inform you as to whether the Programme will be made permanent in due course.
Participation Instructions:
Shareholders who are individual investors and wish to participate in the Proxy Voting Choice programme can do so by accessing http://retail.tumelo.com/. Detailed instructions on how to participate will be provided on the website.
Shareholders who are professional investors can contact their State Street representative for registering for the Programme.
