The Meridian Funds announces the following capital gain distributions and net investment income figures for 2020 to assist shareholders with their tax planning strategies.

Capital gains and net investment income distributions for the Meridian Funds were paid on December 18, 2020, to shareholders of record as of December 17, 2020.

The net asset value per share was reduced by the amount of the distribution on December 18, 2020. If you reinvest your distributions, you own more shares, but the value of each share was reduced by the amount of the distribution; therefore, your total account value remained unchanged on the distribution payment date. Likewise, if your distributions are paid in cash, the value of your shares immediately after the distribution plus cash received was equal to the value of the shares immediately before the distribution.

You should not use these figures for computation of federal and/or state income taxes as you will receive an IRS tax form in early 2021 detailing the taxable portions of any distributions paid to you during 2020.

The Meridian Funds are required to make certain distributions of income and gains to shareholders each year to satisfy Internal Revenue Code requirements applicable to mutual funds.

The estimated per share amounts are listed below using income and capital gain amounts as of September 30, 2020. These figures are subject to change, perhaps significantly, and actual distribution amounts will be posted to the Funds’ website shortly after ex-dividend date.

We have been closely monitoring the advice of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, along with the spread of COVID-19, and want to provide you with an update on ArrowMark’s approach to protect its employees and minimize the potential impact on our business operations. To date, we have enacted the following business continuity actions:

• Restricted all international business travel.
• Curtailed nonessential domestic business travel and are requiring pre-notification of all travel.
• Requested all employees to leverage audio or videoconference rather than in-person meetings to avoid putting our collective human capital at risk.
• Tested access to our network infrastructure and remote work capabilities for ArrowMark’s entire staff.
• Maintained ongoing dialogue with key service providers to ensure they have implemented appropriate safeguards to limit any potential disruption to our business.
• Separated physical location for critical staff and encouraged employees to work from home to maximize contagion prevention until further notice.

While ArrowMark’s operations have not been impacted, rest assured we are actively monitoring developments related to COVID-19 and reevaluating our plans daily.

Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.

As always, thank you for your continued partnership and confidence in the ArrowMark team.
