The combination of specialized investment teams with cross team collaboration results in what we call our team of teams approach. This team of teams approach is further reflected in the composition of Calamos’ Investment Committee, made up of the Global CIO, the Co-CIO team, and the Global Head of Trading. Other members of the investment team participate in Investment Committee meetings in connection with specific investment related issues or topics as deemed appropriate.

| ● | Promotes collaboration between teams; and |

| ● | Functions as a think tank with the goal of identifying ways to outperform the market on a risk-adjusted basis. |

The objectives of the Investment Committee are to:

| ● | Form the firm’s top-down macro view, market direction, asset allocation, and sector/country positioning. |

| ● | Establish firm-wide secular and cyclical themes for review. |

| ● | Review firm-wide and portfolio risk metrics, recommending changes where appropriate. |

| ● | Review firm-wide, portfolio and individual security liquidity constraints. |

| ● | Evaluate firm-wide and portfolio investment performance. |

| ● | Evaluate firm-wide and portfolio hedging policies and execution. |
