 each Merger.

Shareholder approval of the issuance of additional common shares of the Acquiring Fund requires the affirmative vote of a majority (more than 50%) of the votes cast on the proposal, provided a quorum is present. Because the approval of Proposal No. 2 does not require that a minimum percentage of the Acquiring Fund’s outstanding common shares be voted in favor of the proposal, assuming the presence of a quorum, abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on the outcome of the vote on this proposal. Broker non-votes are shares held by brokers or nominees, typically in “street name,” as to which (1) instructions have not been received from the beneficial owners or persons entitled to vote and (2) the broker or nominee does not have discretionary authority to vote such shares.

The consummation of each Merger is contingent on the satisfaction or waiver of all closing conditions, including approval of the Merger proposals (Proposal Nos. 1 and 2) by the applicable Fund’s shareholders.

The Board of the Acquiring Fund recommends that shareholders of the Acquiring Fund vote FOR the approval of the issuance of additional Acquiring Fund common shares in connection with the Mergers.
