Dear Contract Owner:Merger Agreement • December 24th, 2016 • Colorado
Recently, Janus Capital Group Inc. (“Janus”), the parent company of Janus Capital Management LLC (“Janus Capital”), your fund’s investment adviser, and Henderson Group plc (“Henderson”) entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger pursuant to which Janus and Henderson have agreed to effect an all-stock merger of equals strategic combination of their respective businesses, with Janus Capital surviving the merger as a direct wholly-owned subsidiary of Henderson (the “Transaction”). Subject to certain conditions, the Transaction is currently expected to close during the second quarter of 2017. The closing may be deemed to cause an “assignment” of the current advisory agreements between Janus Capital and the Janus mutual funds, and any sub-advisory agreements entered into by Janus Capital, which would cause such agreements to terminate.
