Fri Jun 20, 5:43 PM

TORONTO, June 20 /CNW/ - JovFunds Management Inc., the manager of the Jov BetaPro Short-Term Income Fund (the "Fund"), will hold a special meeting of the unitholders of the Fund on August 11, 2008. Unitholders of record on June 27, 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 change the investment objectives of the Fund so that it can have direct and indirect exposure to a broader universe of fixed income securities.

If these amendments are approved by unitholders of the Fund, the name of the Fund will be changed to the "Jov Bond Fund". JovInvestment Management Inc. and Leon Frazer & Associates Inc. will continue to be the portfolio adviser and portfolio sub-adviser, respectively, of the Fund.

"Upon approval, the Fund's portfolio will be restructured to gain exposure to bonds with longer maturity terms and higher yields," said Adam Felesky, Chief Executive Officer of JovFunds Management Inc. "This proposal is part of our commitment to strengthen our product lineup and deliver innovative investment solutions to investment professionals and their clients."

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.
