Changes to the Investment objective and policy

Results of the vote

On the 24th July 2009 a shareholders meeting took place and a vote was taken on the changes to the Investment objective and policy of the Aviva Investors Active Protector Fund (the Fund). The vote was passed with 95.01% of votes cast in favour of the changes. These changes will enable us to restructure the Fund and return it to a position where it is able to achieve its aim of providing the potential for capital growth as well as a level of capital protection.

Full details of the Fund changes are in the circular below.

The changes are effective from 7 August at 6pm and are binding on each investor in the Fund whether or not that investor has voted in favour or not at all.

What other options are available?

If your client(s) no longer wish to remain invested in the Fund they may want to consider one of the following options:

1. Switch their investment to another of our funds

2. Cash in their investment (Please note if held in an ISA, your client will lose their tax-efficient status)

3. Transfer their ISA to another ISA manager
