 eight times. The Closed-End Fund Committee was established before the fiscal year ended December
31, 2024. However, during the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024, the predecessor to the Closed-End Fund Committee, the Ad Hoc Committee
for Closed-End Fund Matters, met ten times. Each Trustee attended at least 75% of such Board and Committee meetings on which he or she
serves. None of the Trustees attended the Funds’ 2024 Annual Meeting of Shareholders.

Each Committee of the Board of Trustees of each Fund is comprised of
only noninterested Trustees. The respective duties and responsibilities of these Committees remain under the continuing review of the
Governance Committee and the Board.

Messrs. Wennerholm (Chairperson), Gorman and Quinton and Ms. Stefani
are members of the Audit Committee. The Board has designated Messrs. Gorman and Wennerholm, each a noninterested Trustee, as “audit
committee financial experts” as that term is defined in the applicable SEC rules. Each Audit Committee member is independent under
applicable listing standards of the New York Stock Exchange. The purposes of the Audit Committee are to (i) oversee each Fund’s
accounting and financial reporting processes, its internal control over financial reporting, and, as appropriate, the internal control
over financial reporting of certain service providers; (ii) oversee or, as appropriate, assist Board oversight of the quality and integrity
of each Fund’s financial statements and the independent audit thereof; (iii) oversee, or, as appropriate, assist Board oversight
of, each Fund’s compliance with legal and regulatory requirements that relate to the Fund’s accounting and financial reporting,
internal control over financial reporting and independent audits; (iv) approve, prior to appointment, the engagement and, when appropriate,
replacement of the independent auditors, and, if applicable, nominate independent auditors to be proposed for shareholder ratification
in any proxy statement of each Fund; (v) evaluate the qualifications, independence and performance of the independent registered public
accounting firm and the audit partner in charge of leading the audit; and (vi) prepare, as necessary, audit committee reports consistent
with the requirements of applicable SEC and stock exchange rules for inclusion in the proxy statement for the Annual Meeting of Shareholders
of the Fund. Each Fund’s Board of Trustees has adopted a written charter for its Audit Committee, a copy of which is attached as
