RE: Fiduciary/Claymore MLP Opportunity Fund Annual Meeting of Shareholders
Dear Valued Shareholder:
We still need your help. Since June we have been trying to reach you by mail and/or by phone. If you have received a phone call from us we greatly apologize for the intrusion. However, in order to hold this shareholder meeting and conduct the business of the fund we need sufficient proxy voting participation by shareholders as is required by law.
As of today there are only 19 days left until the October 15th shareholder meeting. If you cannot attend in person please take a moment now to cast your vote. Many shareholders have already cast their proxy vote, but it is critical to the outcome of this meeting that we receive your voting instructions. If you have voted since this letter was mailed your participation is much appreciated.
If you have any questions, need another copy of the proxy statement or to quickly vote your shares by telephone, please call 1-800-399-1581. A live operator will answer this line and can record your voting instructions Monday Friday 9:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. Eastern Time. Alternatively, you may cast your vote by calling the touch-tone voting line found on your proxy ballot or by going to the internet address found on the same. We have enclosed a postage-paid envelop for you to mail back your completed proxy ballot, but if possible please vote using one of the other options listed above. We need to receive your voting instructions before October 15th.
Your vote matters and will help us to obtain the required number of votes to complete the shareholder meeting. Please help us by taking a moment to cast your vote today.
Sincerely,
Nicholas Dalmaso
Trustee, Chief Legal and Executive Officer
Fiduciary/Claymore MLP Opportunity Fund
