 the Fund’s portfolio securities, and hence the Fund’s NAV, to decline. If such a decline occurs, the Fund cannot predict what its magnitude might be or whether such a decline would be temporary or continue to or beyond the Expiration Date. Because the price per Share to be paid in the Offer will be dependent upon the NAV as determined as of the close of ordinary trading on the NYSE on the Pricing Date, if such a decline continued to the Pricing Date, the consideration received by tendering stockholders would be less than it otherwise might have been. In addition, a sale of portfolio securities will result in increased brokerage and related transaction expenses, and the Fund may receive proceeds from the sale of portfolio securities that are less than the valuations of such securities by the Fund. Accordingly, because of the Offer, the Fund’s NAV may decline more than it otherwise might, thereby reducing the amount of proceeds received by tendering stockholders, and also reducing the NAV for non-tenderingstockholders. The Fund will sell portfolio securities to raise cash for the purchase of Shares. Thus, it is likely that during the pendency of the Offer, and possibly for a short time thereafter, the Fund will hold a greater than normal percentage of its net assets in cash and cash equivalents. This larger cash position may interfere with the Fund’s ability to meet its investment objective. The Fund is required by law to pay for tendered Shares it accepts for payment promptly after the Expiration Date of this Offer. If on or prior to the Expiration Date the Fund does not have, or believes it is unlikely to have, sufficient cash to pay for all Shares tendered, it may extend the Offer to allow additional time to sell portfolio securities and raise sufficient cash. B. Recognition of Capital Gains. As noted, the Fund will likely be required to sell portfolio securities pursuant to the Offer. If the Fund’s tax basis for the securities sold is less than the sale proceeds, the Fund will recognize capital gains. The Fund would expect to distribute any such gains to stockholders of record (reduced by net capital losses realized during the fiscal year, if any, and available capital loss carry-forwards) during, or following the end of, the Fund’s fiscal year. This recognition and distribution of gains, if any, would have two negative consequences: first, while stockholders at the time of a declaration of distributions will receive such distributions, such stockholders would be required to pay taxes on a greater amount of capital gain distributions than otherwise would be the case; and
