The European Equity Fund filed articles of amendment and articles supplementary with Maryland, both effective June 30, 2025.

The filing is administrative and states no financial figures.
Articles of Amendment set annual elections for all directors beginning with the 2028 annual meeting, with class terms running through 2026 and 2027.
Articles Supplementary elect to no longer be subject to Maryland General Corporation Law Section 3-803; no director's term will be shortened by the change.
