BlueBay Destra International Event-Driven Credit Fund
SHAREHOLDER MEETING ADJOURNED FOR A SECOND TIME!
PLEASE VOTE YOUR SHARES TODAY - EVEN CASTING AN ABSTAIN VOTE WOULD HELP!
December 29, 2025
Dear Valued Shareholder,
WE TRULY NEED YOUR VOTE! We have been trying to reach you regarding the upcoming Special Shareholder Meeting of the BlueBay Destra International Event-Driven Credit Fund (the “Fund”). The Special Shareholder Meeting was originally scheduled to take place on December 9th, 2025, but has unfortunately been adjourned for a SECOND time until January 8th, 2026 due to a lack of shareholder votes. To date, an overwhelming majority of the votes cast are in favor of the proposals – we simply do not have enough people voting to hit the requisite level. We are so close to hitting quorum, and your vote will help us to achieve that goal in time for the next adjourned meeting.
Your financial advisor, while they may have discretion over your investments, does not vote on your behalf, which is why this email is coming to YOU! Our records indicate you have one or more accounts that have still yet to be voted; therefore, we are asking you to please take a moment now to submit your vote on the following proposals using the link provided in this email:
| 1. | To approve a new investment sub-advisory agreement to allow the sub-advisor to utilize services of its U.S. based affiliate. |
| 2. | To approve the reclassification of the Fund from diversified to non-diversified to better position the portfolio for strategic opportunities and align more closely with its long-term investment objectives. |
Simply casting ANY vote on each of the proposals - whether voting For, Against or Abstain would be
extremely helpful and will take less than 2 minutes of your time.
A brief summary of the proposals can be found here: www.OkapiVote.com/BlueBaySummary
