WE NEED YOUR HELP!

INNOVATOR ETFS

We are reaching out because your Innovator ETF vote has not yet been received. Unfortunately, if the proposal is not approved, the Fund may not be able to continue to operate as intended and may be required to liquidate. If the Fund liquidates, it may result in a taxable event for shareholders which we are working to avoid.

It takes 30 seconds to vote online and less than one minute by phone.
