The Fund has adopted a Policy Regarding Proxy Voting (the “Policy”) stating the Fund’s intention to exercise stock ownership rights with respect to portfolio securities in a manner that is reasonably anticipated to further the best economic interests of shareholders of the Fund. The Fund or its voting delegates will endeavor to analyze and vote all proxies that are likely to have financial implications, and where appropriate, to participate in corporate governance, shareholder proposals, management communications and legal proceedings. The Fund or its voting delegates must also identify potential or actual conflicts of interest in voting proxies and must address any such conflict of interest in accordance with the Policy. In the absence of a specific direction to the contrary from the Board, the Fund’s adviser or subadviser is responsible for voting proxies for the Fund, or for delegating such responsibility to a qualified, independent organization engaged by the adviser or subadviser to vote proxies on its behalf. The applicable voting party will vote proxies in accordance with the Policy or its own policies and procedures, which must be reasonably designed to further the best economic interests of the affected fund shareholders. Because the Policy and the applicable voting party’s policies and procedures used to vote proxies for the funds both are designed to further the best economic interests of the affected fund shareholders, they are not expected to conflict with one another although the types of factors considered by the applicable voting party under its own policies and procedures may be in addition to or different from the ones listed below for the Policy. The Policy specifies the types of factors to be considered when analyzing and voting proxies on certain issues when voting in accordance with the Policy, including, but not limited to:

| • |     | Anti-takeover measures – the overall long-term financial performance of the target company relative to its 
 industry competition.                                                                                      |

| • |     | Corporate Governance Matters – tax and economic benefits of changes in the state of incorporation;
