Horizons Global Contrarian Fund to Hold Special Meeting of Unitholders

Fri May 9, 6:26 PM

TORONTO, May 9 /CNW/ - Horizons Funds Inc., the manager of the Horizons Global Contrarian Fund (the "Fund"), will hold a special meeting of the unitholders of the Fund on June 5, 2008. Unitholders of record on May 1, 2008, will be entitled to receive notice of and vote at the meeting and will be asked to consider a proposal to amend the investment objectives of the Fund. These amendments will broaden the investment objectives of the Fund and clearly permit the Fund to expand its mandate by investing in traditional commodities including, but not limited to, minerals, metals, energies, forest products and agricultural products, leading to the potential for greater diversification in the portfolio holdings of the Fund.

"The Fund's advisor has extensive knowledge and experience in the investment of commodities, and we feel that it is in the best interests of the unitholders for us to take advantage of this expertise," said Adam Felesky, Chief Executive Officer of Horizons Funds Inc. "This will expand the opportunities the Fund has and allow for further diversification of investment opportunities available to investors," he said.

Details of the proposal are outlined in a management information circular to be delivered to unitholders in connection with the meeting. The management information circular is available on www.sedar.com.
