The Oakmark Funds considers the preservation of our shareholders’ privacy a priority. In order to provide individualized service, we collect certain non-public personal information about our shareholders, such as your address, social security number, purchases, sales, account balances and bank account information. We collect this information from the following sources:

• Applications or other forms on which you provide information;
• Mail, e-mail, the telephone and our website; and
• Shareholder transactions and account inquiries.
  

We do not disclose any of the non-public personal information that we receive about any shareholder or former shareholder to anyone, except as permitted or required by law or as permitted by the shareholder pursuant to a written consent. Specifically, so that we can complete transactions you authorize or request and so that we can continue to tailor our products and services to meet individual investing needs, we may disclose non-public personal information to the following entities:

• Our financial service providers, such as our investment adviser, transfer agent and custodian; and
• Our non-financial service providers that provide administrative or marketing services, such as our printers and mailers who assist us in the distribution of investor materials.
  

Those companies are permitted to use that information only for the services for which we hired them. They are not permitted to use or share our shareholders’ non-public personal information for any other purpose.

For further protection, we maintain strict internal security measures. We restrict access to shareholder personal and account information to those employees who need to know that information to service that account. We also maintain physical, electronic and procedural safeguards that comply with federal standards to guard non-public personal information. We will continue to adhere to these privacy policies and practices even after an account is closed or becomes inactive.

For questions about our policy, or for additional copies of this notice, please send us an e-mail using the "Contact Us" link or write to us at P.O. Box 219558, Kansas City, MO 64121-9558, or call us at 800-625-6275.

Very truly yours,

The Oakmark Funds
