Rule 497(j) Filing

Ladies and Gentlemen:

Pursuant to Rule 497(j) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, this letter serves as certification that the forms of Prospectus and Statement of Additional Information that would have been filed under paragraph (c) of Rule 497 would not have differed from those contained in Post-Effective Amendment Nos. 148/149 to the Registration Statement of the Trust, which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission electronically on October 17, 2013.

Please direct any questions or comments relating to this certification to me or, in my absence, to Peter M. Hong, Esquire at [phone].

 

Very truly yours, STRADLEY RONON STEVENS & YOUNG, LLP
