Segall Bryant & Hamill, LLC (the “Adviser”), the investment adviser of the Segall Bryant & Hamill Large Cap Dividend Fund and the Segall Bryant & Hamill Global Large Cap Fund, has recommended, and the Segall Bryant & Hamill Trust Board of Trustees (the “Board”) has approved, a proposal to merge (the “Reorganization”) the Segall Bryant & Hamill Large Cap Dividend Fund (the “Acquired Fund”) into the Segall Bryant & Hamill Global Large Cap Fund (the “Acquiring Fund”), each a series of Segall Bryant & Hamill Trust.

Effective December 21, 2018, the Acquired Fund is re-opened to transactions. The Funds will advise shareholders if there are material changes to this determination.

Effective December 28, 2018, for the Segall Bryant & Hamill Global Large Cap Fund’s Retail Class, the Adviser has voluntarily agreed to waive the investment advisory and/or administration fees and/or to reimburse other expenses, so that the ratio of expenses to average net assets as reported in the Segall Bryant & Hamill Global Large Cap Fund’s Financial Highlights will be no more than 0.89% for such period.

If after applying the waivers/reimbursements discussed above, the excess of the net Retail Class expense ratio over the net Institutional Class expense ratio is less than 15 basis points, then the Adviser agrees to voluntarily waive/reimburse such that the excess equals 15 basis points. This voluntary arrangement may be terminated at any time by the Adviser.
