The Fund may invest in companies of any size, but generally focuses on large capitalization companies. Assets means net assets, plus the amount of borrowing for investment purposes. Shareholders will be given 60 days advance notice of any change to this policy. ESG Integration: As part of the investment decision-making process for the Fund, Boston Trust Walden Inc. (the Adviser) evaluates how financially material environmental, social, and governance (ESG) risks and opportunities may affect a companys revenues, expenses, assets, liabilities, and overall risk. The consideration of ESG risks and opportunities in investment decision-making is referred to as ESG integration. The Adviser considers financial materiality as it is understood in Generally Accepted Accounting Principles information that would influence the judgment of an informed investor. The integration of ESG risks and opportunities is often a subjective exercise and may differ depending upon the characteristics of the asset class. The Adviser focuses active ownership efforts in three areas: climate risk, equality, and governance, seeking to ensure companies held across investment strategies are appropriately managing material and significant risks and opportunities. Active ownership activities include proxy voting, company engagement, shareholder resolutions, and public policy advocacy. ESG Screening: While the Adviser integrates ESG risks and opportunities into its investment decision-making, the Fund is also subject to ESG screening criteria. ESG screening criteria requires the Adviser to exclude companies with significant exposure to specific products or services: alcohol production; coal mining; factory farming operations; gambling; handguns; nuclear power fuel cycle; prison operations; tobacco manufacturing; and weapons systems. The Adviser assesses the companys revenue dependence on these specific products/services, market share ( e.g. , if a company is a market leader in the product despite it representing a relatively small share of the companys total revenue), and magnitude of involvement ( e.g. , the company produces a minor electronic component for a weapons system). The Adviser also exercises its full discretion in evaluating the overall performance of each company. The Adviser considers: performance over time (relative to peers and established goals); accountability and disclosure; and responsiveness to stakeholders, among other factors. The Funds screening criteria is measured at one or more points in time and is dependent upon information that may be incomplete, inaccurate, unavailable, or estimated. The information is sourced from a variety of public and private resources believed to be accurate, but the Adviser may not independently verify such data. This screening criteria is subject to change over time at the Advisers discretion. For each potential investment, the Adviser seeks to understand the companys business model and evaluates overall performance in four broad categories: corporate governance, human capital management, environmental impacts, and community impacts. The Fund may avoid companies it judges to have substandard performance in one or more of these areas.
