Dear Valued Shareholder:

 

We still need your help. Today the special meeting of shareholders of your fund, Yorkville High Income MLP ETF (ticker symbol: YMLP) a series of the Exchange Traded Concepts Trust, was adjourned until February 2nd to provide more time for shareholders to cast their important proxy vote. Our records indicate that at the time of this mailing, your voting instructions have not yet been recorded.

 

It is critical to the business of the Fund that proxy votes be cast. Without sufficient vote representation, further delays and cost will be incurred. After careful consideration, the Trust’s Board of Trustees unanimously recommends that shareholders vote “FOR” the proposal listed in the proxy statement and on the enclosed copy of your proxy card.

 

Please help us proceed with the business of the Fund. We greatly need your proxy vote today.

 

Sincerely,

 

J. Garrett Stevens

Chief Executive Officer
