1940 Act. Section 18(a)(2)(D) of the 1940 Act provides that the terms of preferred shares issued by a registered closed-end management investment company must contain provisions requiring approval by the vote of a majority of such shares, voting as a class, of any plan of reorganization adversely affecting such shares. Because the 1940 Act makes no distinction between a plan of reorganization that has an adverse effect as opposed to a materially adverse effect, the Funds are seeking approval of the Agreement by the holders of their preferred shares.

The closing of each Merger is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of certain closing conditions, which include customary closing conditions. For a Merger to occur, all requisite shareholder approvals must be obtained at the applicable Fund’s shareholder Meeting, and certain other consents, confirmations and/or waivers from various third parties, including the purchasers with respect to outstanding preferred shares of the Acquiring Fund, must also be obtained. Because the closing of each Merger is contingent upon the applicable Target Fund and the Acquiring Fund obtaining such shareholder approvals and satisfying (or obtaining the waiver of) other closing conditions, it is possible that a Merger will not occur even if shareholders of a Fund entitled to vote approve the Merger and a Fund satisfies all of its closing conditions if the other Fund does not obtain its requisite shareholder approvals or satisfy (or obtain the waiver of) its closing conditions. If a Merger is not consummated, the Board of the Target Fund involved in that Merger may take such actions as it deems in the best interests of the Fund, including conducting additional solicitations with respect to the Merger proposal or continuing to operate the Target Fund as a standalone fund. The closing of each Merger is not contingent on the closing of any other Merger.

Each series of preferred shares was issued on a private placement basis to one or a small number of institutional holders. To the extent that one or more preferred shareholders of a Fund owns, holds or controls, individually or in the aggregate, all or a significant portion of a Fund’s outstanding preferred shares, the approval by a Fund’s preferred shareholders required for a Merger to occur may turn on the exercise of voting or consent rights by such particular shareholder(s) and its or their determination as to the favorable view of the Merger with respect to its or their interests. The Funds exercise no influence or control over the determinations of such shareholders with respect to a Merger; there is no guarantee that such shareholders will vote to approve a Merger proposal.
