  TORONTO, ONTARIO, Oct 29 (MARKET WIRE) -- 
Blue Ribbon Fund Management ("Blue Ribbon") reminds unitholders of
Citadel Diversified Investment Trust ("CTD") (TSX: CTD.UN) and Series S-1
Income Fund ("SRC") (TSX: SRC.UN) that all votes for the November 17th
Special Unitholder meeting must be received by Thursday, November 12,
2009, only two weeks from today. Unitholders should have received the
Citadel Joint Information Circular and Voting Instruction Form in the
mail. If you have not received your Voting Instruction Form, please
contact your investment advisor or the Re-organization department at your
investment dealer.

    The unitholder meeting is intended to provide unitholders with greater
certainty regarding the future of their funds. Blue Ribbon is paying all
of the costs associated with the unitholder meetings. The proposal to be
voted on is the same as that offered in September 2009, with the
additional benefit of an earlier payout for the 2009 annual redemption.
The September 2009 proposal received support from over 2/3 of investors
as well as investment advisors, analysts of six of the major investment
dealers, RiskMetrics, Canada's leading proxy advisor firm and Gordon
Pape, noted financial author and newsletter editor. The key benefits of
the proposal for unitholders of Citadel Diversified Investment Trust
("CTD") and Series S-1 Income Fund ("SRC") are:


1.  Maintaining Bloom Investment Counsel as investment manager. Bloom is an
    experienced and respected portfolio manager, specializing in income
    oriented investments. His oldest fund, CTD has delivered a compound
    total return based on NAV of 11.3% per annum over the past 12 years to
    July 31, 2009 (13.2% per annum gross of Management Expense Ratio), while
    the S&P Composite Index only provided a return of 6% during the same
    period. 
2.  Lower combined administration and investment management fees of 1.0% of
    NAV vs. 1.1% to 1.5% currently paid by the Funds. 
3.  Annual redemptions at 100% of net asset value less direct costs. If the
    reorganization is approved, the first such redemption will be on
    November 20th and unitholders will receive their redemption proceeds on
    or about November 27th, 2009 - only 10 days after the meeting. 
4.  High distribution rate 
5.  Enhanced unitholder protection and governance features 
6.  Broader investment mandate 
7.  Improved liquidity and lower costs per unit 


    Blue Ribbon recommends that unitholders vote FOR Resolutions 1 and 2.
