President's Letter

Dear Stockholder,

I am pleased to present this annual report for Neuberger Municipal Fund Inc. (the Fund) for the 12 months ended October 31, 2025 (the reporting period). The report includes a portfolio commentary, a listing of the Fund's investments and its audited financial statements for the reporting period.

The Fund's investment objective is to provide a high level of current income exempt from federal income tax. The Fund may invest in securities the interest on which is subject to the federal alternative minimum tax. We maintain a conservative investment philosophy and disciplined investment process in an effort to provide you with tax-exempt current income over the long term with less volatility and risk.

Thank you for your confidence in the Fund. We will continue to do our best to retain your trust in the years to come.

Sincerely,

![](img56d8b25b4.jpg)

Joseph V. Amato <br>President and CEO <br>Neuberger Municipal Fund Inc.

Neuberger Municipal Fund Inc. Portfolio Commentary (Unaudited)

Neuberger Municipal Fund Inc. (the Fund) generated a 2.24% total return on a net asset value (NAV) basis for the 12-months ended October 31, 2025 (the reporting period), versus a 5.72% total return for its benchmark, the Bloomberg 10-Year Municipal Bond Index (the Index). (Fund performance on a market price basis is provided in the table immediately following this commentary.) The use of leverage (typically a performance enhancer in up markets and a detractor during market retreats) contributed positively to the Fund's performance during the reporting period.

The investment-grade municipal (muni) bond market generated a positive return but underperformed the taxable investment-grade bond market during the reporting period. All told, the Bloomberg Municipal Bond Index returned 4.17% for the reporting period, whereas the overall taxable investment-grade bond market, as measured by the Bloomberg U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, returned 6.16%. The fixed income market was impacted by a number of factors, including signs of strain in the U.S. labor market, moderating but still "sticky" inflation, several Federal Reserve Board rate cuts and the potential impact from the Trump administration's tariffs.

In terms of the Fund's results, yield curve positioning was the largest detractor from performance, as we maintained a barbelled approach, whereas the benchmark is bulleted in the intermediate portion of the curve. An allocation to revenue bonds was also a headwind, as they lagged their general obligation counterparts. Finally, several of the Fund's small project-specific securities negatively impacted returns. On the upside, duration positioning contributed to performance. In particular, having a duration that was longer than the Index was beneficial as rates moved lower over the reporting period. There were no significant changes to the Fund's portfolio during the reporting period.

Looking ahead, we believe rate volatility will moderate as tariff policy comes into clearer focus. We also believe that municipal supply will continue to be elevated, which may cause municipal yields to remain elevated relative to taxable equivalents. In our view, that backdrop may be ideal for our approach to investing, which revolves around using a large broker-dealer network to locate mispriced securities. In effect, we find ourselves in a bond-pickers market. We recognize that the recent market environment has been difficult, but we anticipate more deals and secondary market opportunities to offer price concessions. In our opinion, we are moving into a period where active management could be rewarded.

Sincerely,

James L. Iselin and S. Blake Miller <br>Portfolio Co-Managers

Listed closed-end funds, unlike open-end funds, are not continually offered. Generally, there is an initial public offering and, once issued, shares of common stock of closed-end funds are sold in the secondary market on a stock exchange.

**The performance data quoted represent past performance and do not indicate future results. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. For current performance data, please visit www.nb.com/cef-performance.**

**The results shown in the table reflect the reinvestment of income dividends and other distributions, if any.** The results do not reflect the effect of taxes a stockholder would pay on Fund distributions or on the sale of shares of the Fund's common stock.

**The investment return and market price will fluctuate and shares of the Fund's common stock may trade at prices above or below NAV. Shares of the Fund's common stock, when sold, may be worth more or less than their original cost.**

Returns would have been lower if Neuberger Berman Investment Advisers LLC ("NBIA") had not waived a portion of its investment management fees during certain of the periods shown. The waived fees are from prior years that are no longer disclosed in the Financial Highlights.

COMPARISON OF A $10,000 INVESTMENT

![](imgb20e15bc5.jpg)

This graph shows the change in value of a hypothetical $10,000 investment in the Fund over the past 10 fiscal years. The graph is based on the Fund's shares of common stock both at net asset value (NAV) and at market price. The Fund's common stock may trade at market prices above or below NAV per share (see Performance Highlights chart). The result is compared with a broad-based market index. The market index has not been reduced to reflect any of the fees and costs of investing. The results shown in the graph reflect the reinvestment of income dividends and other distributions, if any, at prices obtained under the Fund's Distribution Reinvestment Plan. The results do not reflect the effect of taxes a stockholder would pay on Fund distributions or on the sale of Fund shares. Results represent past performance and do not indicate future results.

**Impact of the Fund's Distribution Policy**

The Fund has a practice of seeking to maintain a relatively stable level of distributions to common stockholders. In general, this practice does not affect the Fund's investment strategy and may reduce the Fund's NAV. Management believes the practice helps maintain the Fund's competitiveness and may benefit the Fund's market price and its premium/discount to the Fund's NAV per share. During the 12-month period ended October 31, 2025, the Fund made distributions to common stockholders totaling $0.65 per share, of which $0.15 will be treated as a return of capital for tax purposes.

Notes to Financial Statements Municipal Fund Inc.

Note A—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:

General: Neuberger Municipal Fund Inc. (the "Fund") (formerly, Neuberger Berman Municipal Fund Inc.) was organized as a Maryland corporation on July 29, 2002 as a diversified, closed-end management investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"). The Fund's Board of Directors (the "Board") may classify or re-classify any unissued shares of capital stock into one or more classes of preferred stock without the approval of stockholders.

Effective December 18, 2025, the Fund's name was changed from Neuberger Berman Municipal Fund Inc. to Neuberger Municipal Fund Inc.

A balance indicated with a "—", reflects either a zero balance or a balance that rounds to less than 1.

The Fund is an investment company and accordingly follows the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") Topic 946 "Financial Services—Investment Companies."

The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") requires Management to make estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Portfolio valuation: In accordance with ASC 820 "Fair Value Measurement" ("ASC 820"), all investments held by the Fund are carried at the value that Management believes the Fund would receive upon selling an investment in an orderly transaction to an independent buyer in the principal or most advantageous market for the investment under current market conditions. Various inputs, including the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability in the market, are considered in valuing the Fund's investments, some of which are discussed below. At times, Management may need to apply significant judgment to value investments in accordance with ASC 820.

ASC 820 established a three-tier hierarchy of inputs to create a classification of value measurements for disclosure purposes. The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in the three broad Levels listed below.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Level 1 – unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical investments

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Level 2 – other observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, amortized cost, etc.)

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• Level 3 – unobservable inputs (including the Fund's own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)

The inputs or methodology used for valuing an investment are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

The value of the Fund's investments in equity securities, for which market quotations are readily available, is generally determined by Management by obtaining valuations from independent pricing services based on the latest sale price quoted on a principal exchange or market for that security (Level 1 inputs). Securities traded primarily on the NASDAQ Stock Market are normally valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price ("NOCP") provided by NASDAQ each business day. The NOCP is the most recently reported price as of 4:00:02 p.m., Eastern Time, unless that price is outside the range of the "inside" bid and asked prices (i.e., the bid and asked prices that dealers quote to each other when trading for their own accounts); in that case, NASDAQ will adjust the price to equal the inside bid or asked price, whichever is closer. Because of delays in reporting trades, the NOCP may not be based on the price of the last trade to occur before the market closes. If there is no sale of a security on a particular day, the independent pricing services may value the security based on market quotations.

The value of the Fund's investments in municipal notes is determined by Management primarily by obtaining valuations from independent pricing services based on bid quotations, or if quotations are not

available, by methods that include various considerations such as yields or prices of securities of comparable quality, coupon, maturity and type; indications as to values from dealers; and general market conditions (generally Level 2 inputs). Other Level 2 and 3 inputs used by independent pricing services to value municipal notes include current trades, bid-wanted lists (which inform the market that a holder is interested in selling a position and that offers will be considered), offerings, general information on market movement, direction, trends, appraisals, bid offers and specific data on specialty issues.

The value of the Fund's Variable Rate Municipal Term Preferred Shares ("VMTPS") is estimated to be their liquidation preference (Level 2 inputs).

Management has developed a process to periodically review information provided by independent pricing services for all types of securities.

If a valuation is not available from an independent pricing service, or if Management has reason to believe that the valuation received does not represent the amount the Fund might reasonably expect to receive on a current sale in an orderly transaction, Management seeks to obtain quotations from brokers or dealers (generally considered Level 2 or Level 3 inputs depending on the number of quotes available). If such quotations are not available, the security is valued using methods Management has approved in the good-faith belief that the resulting valuation will reflect the fair value of the security. Pursuant to Rule 2a-5 under the 1940 Act, the Board designated Management as the Fund's valuation designee. As the Fund's valuation designee, Management is responsible for determining fair value in good faith for all Fund investments. Inputs and assumptions considered in determining fair value of a security based on Level 2 or Level 3 inputs may include, but are not limited to, the type of security; the initial cost of the security; the existence of any contractual restrictions on the security's disposition; the price and extent of public trading in similar securities of the issuer or of comparable companies; quotations or evaluated prices from broker-dealers or pricing services; information obtained from the issuer and analysts; an analysis of the company's or issuer's financial statements; an evaluation of the inputs that influence the issuer and the market(s) in which the security is purchased and sold.

Fair value prices are necessarily estimates, and there is no assurance that such a price will be at or close to the price at which the security is next quoted or traded.

Securities transactions and investment income: Securities transactions are recorded on trade date for financial reporting purposes. Interest income, including accretion of discount (adjusted for original issue discount, where applicable) and amortization of premium, where applicable, is recorded on the accrual basis. Realized gains and losses from securities transactions are recorded on the basis of identified cost and stated separately in the Statement of Operations.

Income tax information: It is the policy of the Fund to continue to qualify for treatment as a regulated investment company ("RIC") by complying with the requirements of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code applicable to RICs and to distribute substantially all of its net investment income and net realized capital gains to its stockholders. To the extent the Fund distributes substantially all of its net investment income and net realized capital gains to stockholders, no federal income or excise tax provision is required.

ASC 740 "Income Taxes" sets forth a minimum threshold for financial statement recognition of a tax position taken, or expected to be taken, in a tax return. The Fund recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax positions as an income tax expense in the Statement of Operations. The Fund is subject to examination by U.S. federal and state tax authorities for returns filed for the tax years for which the applicable statutes of limitations have not yet expired. Management has analyzed the Fund's tax positions taken or expected to be taken on federal and state income tax returns for all open tax years (the current and the prior three tax years) and has concluded that no provision for income tax is required in the Fund's financial statements.

For federal income tax purposes, the estimated cost of investments held at October 31, 2025 was $560,873,776. The estimated gross unrealized appreciation was $20,655,116 and estimated gross unrealized depreciation was $21,484,489 resulting in net unrealized depreciation in value of investments of $829,373 based on cost for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

------

Income distributions and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences, if any, are primarily due to differing treatments of income and gains on various investment securities held by the Fund and net operating losses written off.

Any permanent differences resulting from different book and tax treatment are reclassified at year-end and have no impact on net income, net asset value ("NAV") or NAV per share of common stock of the Fund. For the year ended October 31, 2025, there were no permanent differences requiring a reclassification between total distributable earnings/(losses) and paid-in-capital.

The tax character of distributions paid during the years ended October 31, 2025, and October 31, 2024, was as follows:

---

| | | | | | | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|

---

As of October 31, 2025, the components of distributable earnings (accumulated losses) on a U.S. federal income tax basis were as follows:

---

| | | | | | | |
|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|:---|
| **Undistributed** <br>**Ordinary** <br>**Income** <br>| **Undistributed** <br>**Tax-Exempt** <br>**Income**<br>| **Undistributed** <br>**Long-Term** <br>**Capital Gain** <br>| **Unrealized** <br>**Appreciation/** <br>**(Depreciation)** <br>| **Loss** <br>**Carryforwards** <br>**and Deferrals** <br>| **Other** <br>**Temporary** <br>**Differences** <br>| **Total**  |
| &nbsp;&nbsp; $— | &nbsp;&nbsp; $— | &nbsp;&nbsp; $— | &nbsp;&nbsp; $(829373)<br>| &nbsp;&nbsp; $(57322657)<br>| &nbsp;&nbsp; $(2345304)<br>| &nbsp;&nbsp; $(60497334)<br>|

---

The temporary differences between book basis and tax basis distributable earnings are primarily due to: defaulted bond adjustments and timing differences of fund level distributions.

To the extent the Fund's net realized capital gains, if any, can be offset by capital loss carryforwards, it is the policy of the Fund not to distribute such gains. Capital loss carryforward rules allow for RICs to carry forward capital losses indefinitely and to retain the character of capital loss carryforwards as short-term or long-term. As determined at October 31, 2025, the Fund had unused capital loss carryforwards available for federal income tax purposes to offset future net realized capital gains, if any, as follows:

---

| |
|:---|
| **Capital Loss Carryforwards** |
| **Long-Term** |
| $51098545<br> <sup>\*</sup><br>&nbsp;&nbsp; $6224112<br> <sup>\*</sup><br>|

---

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

\* Future utilization of losses may be limited under current tax regulations.

Distributions to common stockholders: The Fund earns income, net of expenses, daily on its investments. It is the policy of the Fund to declare and pay monthly distributions to common stockholders. Distributions from net realized capital gains, if any, are normally distributed in December. Distributions to common stockholders are recorded on the ex-date. Distributions to preferred stockholders are accrued and determined as described in Note A-7.

On October 15, 2025, the Fund declared a monthly distribution to common stockholders in the amount of $0.054170 per share, payable on November 17, 2025 to stockholders of record on October 31, 2025, with an ex-date of October 31, 2025. Subsequent to October 31, 2025, the Fund declared a monthly distribution on November 17, 2025 to common stockholders in the amount of $0.054170 per share, payable on December 15, 2025 to stockholders of record on November 28, 2025, with an ex-date of November 28, 2025.

Expense allocation: Certain expenses are applicable to multiple funds within the complex of related investment companies. Expenses directly attributable to the Fund are charged to the Fund. Expenses borne by the complex of related investment companies, which includes open-end and closed-end investment

------

companies for which NBIA serves as investment manager, that are not directly attributable to a particular investment company (e.g., the Fund) are allocated among the Fund and the other investment companies or series thereof in the complex on the basis of relative net assets, except where a more appropriate allocation of expenses to each of the investment companies or series thereof in the complex can otherwise be made fairly.

Financial leverage: On July 1, 2014, the Fund issued 1,794 VMTPS. On April 1, 2019, December 16, 2021, and September 16, 2024, the Fund extended the term of the VMTPS, most recently to December 14, 2029.

The Fund's VMTPS have a liquidation preference of $100,000 per share plus any accumulated unpaid distributions, whether or not earned or declared by the Fund, but excluding interest thereon ("VMTPS Liquidation Value"). Distributions on the VMTPS are accrued daily and paid monthly at a floating rate. For financial reporting purposes only, the liquidation preference of the VMTPS is recognized as a liability in the Fund's Statement of Assets and Liabilities.

Partial redemptions and shares outstanding after each partial redemption are as follows:

---

On October 23, 2023 in connection with the reorganizations of two funds with and into the Fund, the Fund issued 822 VMTPS. After such issuance, the Fund had 2,279 VMTPS outstanding.

The distribution rate for the Fund's VMTPS is calculated based on the applicable SIFMA ("Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association") Municipal Swap Index plus a spread. The table below sets forth key terms of the Fund's VMTPS at October 31, 2025.

---

The Fund may redeem its VMTPS, in whole or in part, at its option after giving notice to the relevant holders of its VMTPS. The Fund is also subject to certain restrictions relating to the VMTPS. Failure to comply with these restrictions could preclude the Fund from declaring any distributions to common stockholders or repurchasing common stock and/or could trigger the mandatory redemption of its VMTPS at the VMTPS Liquidation Value. The holders of the VMTPS are entitled to one vote per share and will vote with holders of common stock as a single class, except that the holders of the VMTPS will vote separately as a class on certain matters, as required by law or the Fund's organizational documents. The holders of the VMTPS, voting as a separate class, are entitled at all times to elect two Directors of the Fund, and to elect a majority of the Directors of the Fund if the Fund fails to pay distributions on its VMTPS for two consecutive years.

During the year ended October 31, 2025, the average aggregate liquidation preference outstanding and average annualized distribution rate of the VMTPS were $227,900,000 and 4.02%, respectively.

Concentration of risk: The ability of the issuers of the debt securities held by the Fund to meet its obligations may be affected by economic developments, including those particular to a specific industry or region. The value of the Fund's securities are more susceptible to adverse economic, political, regulatory or other factors affecting the issuers of such municipal bonds than a fund that does not limit its investments to such issuers.

Securities lending: The Fund, using State Street Bank and Trust Company ("State Street") as its lending agent, may loan securities to qualified brokers and dealers in exchange for negotiated lender's fees. These fees, if any, would be disclosed within the Statement of Operations under the caption "Income from securities loaned—net" and are net of expenses retained by State Street as compensation for its services as lending agent.

------

The initial collateral received by the Fund at the beginning of each transaction shall have a value equal to at least 102% of the prior day's market value of the loaned securities (105% in the case of international securities). Collateral in the form of cash and/or securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government or its agencies, equivalent to at least 100% of the market value of securities, is maintained at all times. Thereafter, the value of the collateral is monitored on a daily basis, and collateral is moved daily between a counterparty and the Fund until the close of the transaction. Cash collateral is generally invested in a money market fund registered under the 1940 Act that is managed by an affiliate of State Street and is included in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities under the caption "Investments in securities, at value—Unaffiliated issuers." The total value of securities received as collateral for securities on loan is included in a footnote following the Schedule of Investments, but is not included within the Statement of Assets and Liabilities because the receiving Fund does not have the right to sell or repledge the securities received as collateral. The risks associated with lending portfolio securities include, but are not limited to, possible delays in receiving additional collateral or in the recovery of the loaned securities. Any increase or decrease in the fair value of the securities loaned and any interest earned or dividends paid or owed on those securities during the term of the loan would accrue to the Fund.

During the year ended October 31, 2025, the Fund did not participate in securities lending.

Indemnifications: Like many other companies, the Fund's organizational documents provide that its officers ("Officers") and directors ("Directors") are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Fund. In addition, both in some of its principal service contracts and in the normal course of its business, the Fund enters into contracts that provide indemnifications to other parties for certain types of losses or liabilities. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this could involve future claims against the Fund.

Arrangements with certain non-affiliated service providers: In order to satisfy rating agency requirements, the Fund is required to provide the rating agency that rates its VMTPS a report on a monthly basis verifying that the Fund is maintaining eligible assets having a discounted value equal to or greater than the Preferred Shares Basic Maintenance Amount, which is a minimum level set by the rating agency as one of the conditions to maintain its rating on the VMTPS. "Discounted value" refers to the fact that the rating agency requires the Fund, in performing this calculation, to discount portfolio securities below their face value, at rates determined by the rating agency. The Fund pays a fee to State Street for the preparation of this report which is reflected in the Statement of Operations under the caption "Basic maintenance (Note A)."

Segment Reporting: In this reporting period, the Fund has adopted FASB Accounting Standards Update No. 2023-07, "Segment Reporting (Topic 280) - Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures" ("ASU 2023-07"). Adoption of the new standard impacted financial statement disclosures only and did not affect the Fund's financial position or the results of its operations. An operating segment is a component of a public entity that engages in business activities from which it may recognize revenues and incur expenses, has operating results that are regularly reviewed by the entity's chief operating decision maker ("CODM") in making resource allocation decisions and assessing segment performance, and for which discrete financial information is available. The Fund's investment manager acts as the Fund's CODM. The CODM has determined that the Fund has a single operating segment because the CODM monitors the operating results of the Fund as a whole and evaluates performance in accordance with the Fund's principal investment strategy as disclosed in its prospectus and/or annual report. The CODM uses these measures to assess Fund performance and allocate resources effectively. The Fund's total returns, expense ratios, and changes in net assets, which among others are used by the CODM to assess Fund performance and to make resource allocation decisions for the Fund's single segment, are consistent with that presented within the Fund's financial statements.

Note B—Investment Management Fees, Administration Fees, and Other Transactions with Affiliates:

The Fund retains NBIA as its investment manager under a Management Agreement. For such investment management services, the Fund pays NBIA monthly, an investment management fee at an annual rate of 0.25% of the Fund's average daily Managed Assets. Managed Assets equal the total assets of the Fund, less

------

liabilities other than the aggregate indebtedness entered into for purposes of leverage. For purposes of calculating Managed Assets, any VMTPS liquidation preference is not considered a liability.

The Fund retains NBIA as its administrator under an Administration Agreement. The Fund pays NBIA monthly, an administration fee at an annual rate of 0.30% of its average daily Managed Assets under this agreement. Additionally, NBIA retains State Street as its sub-administrator under a Sub-Administration Agreement. NBIA pays State Street a fee for all services received under the Sub-Administration Agreement.

Note C—Securities Transactions:

During the year ended October 31, 2025, there were purchase and sale transactions of long-term securities of $202,247,699 and $197,922,338, respectively.

Note D—Recent Accounting Pronouncement:

In December 2023, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2023-09, "Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures" ("ASU 2023-09"). ASU 2023-09 clarifies the guidance in ASC 740 "Income Taxes" to enhance the transparency and decision-usefulness of income tax disclosures, particularly in the rate reconciliation table and disclosures about income taxes paid. The amendments are intended to address investors' requests for income tax disclosures that provide more information to help them better understand an entity's exposure to potential changes in tax laws and the ensuing risks and opportunities and to assess income tax information that affects cash flow forecasts and capital allocation decisions. ASU 2023-09 is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2024. Management is currently evaluating the impact, if any, of applying ASU 2023-09.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Stockholders and Board of Directors of <br>Neuberger Municipal Fund Inc.

**Opinion on the Financial Statements**

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Neuberger Municipal Fund Inc. (formerly, Neuberger Berman Municipal Fund Inc.) (the "Fund"), including the schedule of investments, as of October 31, 2025 and the related statement of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Fund at October 31, 2025, the results of its operations for the year then ended, the changes in its net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and its financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

**Basis for Opinion**

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Fund's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Fund's financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) ("PCAOB") and are required to be independent with respect to the Fund in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Fund is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of the Fund's internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund's internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of October 31, 2025, by correspondence with the custodian, brokers and others; when replies were not received from brokers and others, we performed other auditing procedures. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

![](img61ec71b86.jpg)

We have served as the auditor of one or more Neuberger investment companies since 1954.

Fund Investment Objective, Policies and Risks

Investment Objective and Policies

The Fund's investment objective is to provide a high level of current income exempt from federal income tax. There is no assurance that the Fund will achieve its investment objective.

The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by normally investing at least 80% of its total assets (including proceeds from the issuance of any preferred stock and the proceeds of any borrowings for investment purposes) in securities of municipal issuers that provide interest income that is exempt from federal income tax; however, the Fund may invest without limit in municipal securities the interest on which may be an item of tax preference for purposes of the federal alternative minimum tax ("Tax Preference Item"). The Fund's distributions are generally exempt from federal income tax, although stockholders may have to pay an alternative minimum tax on income deemed to be a Tax Preference Item. A portion of the distributions you receive may also be exempt from state and local income taxes, depending on where you live.

Municipal securities that provide interest income that is exempt from federal income tax include securities issued by state and local governments, including U.S. territories and possessions, political subdivisions, agencies and public authorities.

The Fund's investment objective is not fundamental and may be changed by the Fund's Board of Directors without stockholder approval, however, stockholders would be provided at least 60 days' notice of any changes. The Fund's policy of investing at least 80% of its total assets (including proceeds from the issuance of any preferred stock and the proceeds of any borrowings for investment purposes) in municipal securities that provide interest income that is exempt from federal income tax is a fundamental policy that may not be changed without the approval of the holders of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Fund (as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act")).

The Fund may invest in municipal obligations of any maturity or duration and does not have a target maturity or duration. Under normal market conditions, the Fund will invest at least 70% of its total assets in municipal securities that, at the time of investment, are rated within the four highest rating categories by at least one independent credit rating agency or, if unrated, are determined by the Fund's portfolio managers to be of comparable quality. The Fund may invest up to 30% of its total assets in municipal securities that, at the time of investment, are rated Ba/BB or B by Moody's, S&P or Fitch or that are unrated but judged to be of comparable quality by the Fund's portfolio managers. The Fund will not invest more than 25% of its total assets in any industry and the Fund normally will not invest more than 5% of its total assets in the securities of any single issuer. The Fund may invest more than 25% of its total assets in industrial development bonds or in issuers located in the same state. The Fund may invest up to 20% of its total assets in securities the interest income on which is subject to federal income tax. All percentage and ratings limitations on securities in which the Fund may invest apply at the time of making an investment and shall not be considered violated as a result of subsequent market movements or if an investment rating is subsequently downgraded to a rating that would have precluded the Fund's initial investment in such security.

The Fund uses leverage to pursue its investment objective and has issued Variable Rate Municipal Term Preferred Shares (the "Preferred Shares"). Under the 1940 Act, the Fund is permitted to issue debt up to 33 1/3% of its total managed assets or equity securities (e.g., Preferred Shares) up to 50% of its total managed assets. The Fund may voluntarily elect to limit its leverage to less than the maximum amount permitted under the 1940 Act. In addition, the Fund may also be subject to certain asset coverage, leverage or portfolio composition requirements imposed by the Preferred Shares' governing instruments or by agencies rating the Preferred Shares, which may be more stringent than those imposed by the 1940 Act.

------

The Fund may invest in all types of municipal bonds, including general obligation bonds, revenue bonds and pre-refunded bonds. The Fund may invest in zero coupon bonds, which are issued at substantial discounts from their value at maturity and pay no cash income to their holders until they mature.

The Fund may purchase municipal bonds that are additionally secured by insurance, bank credit agreements, or escrow accounts. The credit quality of companies that provide such credit enhancements will affect the value of those securities. Although the insurance feature reduces certain financial risks, the premiums for insurance and the higher market price paid for insured obligations may reduce the Fund's income. The insurance feature does not guarantee the market value of the insured obligations or the net asset value of the Fund's shares of common stock.

As part of their fundamental investment analysis the portfolio managers consider financially material environmental, social and governance factors they believe are financially material to individual investments, where applicable, as described below. While this analysis is inherently subjective and may be informed by both internally generated and third -party metrics, data and other information, the portfolio managers believe that the consideration of financially material environmental, social and governance factors, alongside traditional financial metrics, may improve credit analysis, security selection, relative value analysis and enhance the Fund's overall investment process. The specific environmental, social and governance factors considered and scope of integration may vary depending on the specific investment and/or investment type. The consideration of environmental, social and governance factors does not apply to certain instruments, such as certain derivative instruments, other registered investment companies, cash and cash equivalents. The consideration of environmental, social and governance factors as part of the investment process does not mean that the Fund pursues a specific "impact" or "sustainable" investment strategy.

Risk Factors

This section contains a discussion of principal risks of investing in the Fund. The net asset value per share ("NAV") and market price of, and distributions paid on, the Fund's shares of common stock will fluctuate with and be affected by, among other things, the risks more fully described below. As with any fund, there can be no guarantee that the Fund will meet its investment objective or that the Fund's performance will be positive for any period of time. Each of the following risks, which are described in alphabetical order and not in order of importance, can significantly affect the Fund's performance. The relative importance of, or potential exposure as a result of, each of these risks will vary based on market and other investment-specific considerations. The Fund may be subject to other risks in addition to those identified below.

**Anti-Takeover Provisions Risk.** The Fund's Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws include provisions that could limit the ability of other entities or persons to acquire control of the Fund or convert the Fund to an open-end fund. If the Fund were converted to open-end status, the Fund would have to redeem any preferred stock or prepay any other forms of leverage outstanding. By resolution of the Board, the Fund has opted into the Maryland Control Share Acquisition Act and the Maryland Business Combination Act.

**Call Risk.** Upon the issuer's desire to call a security, or under other circumstances where a security is called, which may happen for a number of reasons, such as declining interest rates or changes in credit spreads, the issuer can opt to repay the obligation underlying a "callable security" early. When this occurs, the Fund may have to reinvest the proceeds in an investment offering a lower yield or with a higher risk of default and the Fund may not realize the full anticipated benefit from such investment. In addition, the Fund may also realize a taxable gain or loss on such securities.

**Closed-End Fund Risk.** The Fund is a diversified, closed-end management investment company and designed primarily for long-term investors. Closed-end funds differ from open-end management investment companies (commonly known as mutual funds) because investors in a closed-end fund do not have the right to redeem their shares on a daily basis. The Fund's Common Stock may trade at a discount to the Fund's NAV.

------

**Credit Risk.** Credit risk is the risk that issuers, guarantors, or insurers may fail, or become less able or unwilling, to pay interest and/or principal when due. Changes in the actual or perceived creditworthiness of an issuer or a downgrade or default affecting any of the Fund's securities could affect the Fund's performance by affecting the credit quality or value of the Fund's securities. Generally, the longer the maturity and the lower the credit quality of a security, the more sensitive it is to credit risk.

**Distressed Securities Risk.** Distressed securities may present a substantial risk of default or may be in default. Distressed securities involve the substantial risk that principal will not be repaid and the Fund may lose a substantial portion or all of its investment. The Fund may not receive interest payments on the distressed securities, which would not generate income for shareholders, and may incur costs to protect its investment. The prices of such securities may be subject to periods of abrupt and erratic market movements and above-average price volatility and it may be difficult to value such securities. In certain periods, there may be little or no liquidity in the markets for distressed securities meaning that the Fund may be unable to exit its position.

**Interest Rate Risk.** The Fund's distribution rate and NAV will fluctuate in response to changes in interest rates. In general, the value of investments with interest rate risk, such as debt securities, will move in the direction opposite to movements in interest rates. If interest rates rise, the value of such securities may decline. Typically, the longer the maturity or duration of a debt security, the greater the effect a change in interest rates could have on the security's price. Thus, the sensitivity of the Fund's debt securities to interest rate risk will increase with any increase in the duration of those securities.

**Issuer-Specific Risk.** An individual security may be more volatile, and may perform differently, than the market as a whole.

**Leverage Risk.** The Fund's use of leverage may cause higher volatility for the Fund's NAV, market price, and distribution rate. Leverage typically magnifies the total return of the Fund's portfolio, whether that return is positive or negative. Leverage is intended to increase common stock net income, but there is no assurance that the Fund's leveraging strategy will be successful or that the use of leverage will result in a higher yield on the Fund's shares of common stock. Leverage may also increase the Fund's liquidity risk, as the Fund may need to sell securities at inopportune times to stay within Fund, contractual or regulatory limits. The Fund's use of leverage may increase operating costs, which may reduce total return. The Fund's use of leverage may increase or decrease from time to time in its discretion and the Fund may, in the future, determine not to use leverage.

**Liquidity Risk.** From time to time, the trading market for a particular investment in which the Fund invests, or a particular type of instrument in which the Fund is invested, may become less liquid or even illiquid. Illiquid investments frequently can be more difficult to purchase or sell at an advantageous price or time, and there is a greater risk that the investments may not be sold for the price at which the Fund is carrying them. Certain investments that were liquid when the Fund purchased them may become illiquid, sometimes abruptly.

Additionally, market closures due to holidays or other factors may render a security or group of securities (e.g., securities tied to a particular country or geographic region) illiquid for a period of time. An inability to sell a portfolio position can adversely affect the Fund's value or prevent the Fund from being able to take advantage of other investment opportunities. Market prices for such securities or other investments may be volatile. During periods of substantial market volatility, an investment or even an entire market segment may become illiquid, sometimes abruptly, which can adversely affect the Fund's ability to limit losses.

**Lower-Rated Debt Securities Risk.** Lower-rated debt securities (commonly known as "junk bonds") and unrated debt securities determined to be of comparable quality involve greater risks than investment grade debt securities. Such securities may fluctuate more widely in price and yield and may fall in price, sometimes abruptly, due to changes in interest rates, market activity, economic conditions, such as when economic conditions are deteriorating or are expected to deteriorate, or other factors. These securities may be less liquid, may require a greater degree of judgment to establish a price and may be difficult to sell at the time and price the Fund desires. Lower-rated debt securities are considered by the major rating agencies to be predominantly speculative with

------

respect to the issuer's continuing ability to pay principal and interest and carry a greater risk that the issuer of such securities will default in the timely payment of principal and interest. Issuers of securities that are in default or have defaulted may fail to resume principal or interest payments, in which case the Fund may lose its entire investment. The creditworthiness of issuers of these securities may be more complex to analyze than that of issuers of investment grade debt securities, and the overreliance on credit ratings may present additional risks.

**Market Premium/Discount Risk.** The market price of the Fund's shares of common stock will generally fluctuate in accordance with changes in the Fund's NAV as well as the relative supply of and demand for shares on the secondary market. The Fund's investment advisor cannot predict whether shares will trade below, at or above their NAV because the shares trade on the secondary market at market prices and not at NAV. Because the market price of the shares of common stock will be determined by factors such as relative supply of and demand for the shares of common stock in the market, general market and economic circumstances, and other factors beyond the control of the Fund, the Fund cannot predict whether the shares of common stock will trade at, below or above NAV. This characteristic is a risk separate and distinct from the risk that the Fund's NAV could decrease as a result of investment activities. Common stockholders bear a risk of loss to the extent that the price at which they sell their shares is lower in relation to the Fund's NAV than at the time of purchase.

**Municipal Securities Risk.** The municipal securities market could be significantly affected by adverse political and legislative changes, as well as uncertainties related to taxation or the rights of municipal security holders. Changes in the financial health of a municipality or other issuer, or an insurer of municipal securities, may make it difficult for it to pay interest and principal when due and may affect the overall municipal securities market. To the extent that the Fund invests a significant portion of its assets in the municipal securities of a particular state or U.S. territory or possession, there is greater risk that political, regulatory, economic or other developments within that jurisdiction may have a significant impact on the Fund's investment performance. Declines in real estate prices and general business activity may reduce the tax revenues of state and local governments. Municipal issuers have on occasion defaulted on obligations, been downgraded, or commenced insolvency proceedings.

Because many municipal securities are issued to finance similar types of projects, especially those related to education, health care, housing, transportation, and utilities, conditions in those sectors can affect the overall municipal securities market. Interest on municipal securities paid out of current or anticipated revenues from a specific project or specific asset (so-called "private activity bonds") are generally not backed by the creditworthiness or taxing authority of the issuing governmental entity; rather, a particular business or facility may be the only source of revenue supporting payment of interest and principal, and declines in general business activity could affect the economic viability of that business or facility. To the extent that the Fund earns interest income on private activity bonds, a part of its dividends will be a Tax Preference Item.

Municipal bonds may be bought or sold at a market discount (i.e., a price less than the bond's principal amount or, in the case of a bond issued with original issue discount ("OID"), a price less than the amount of the issue price plus accrued OID). If the market discount is more than a de minimis amount, and if the bond has a maturity date of more than one year from the date it was issued, then any market discount that accrues annually, or any gains earned on the disposition of the bond, generally will be subject to federal income taxation as ordinary (taxable) income rather than as capital gains. Some municipal securities, including those in the high yield market, may include transfer restrictions similar to restricted securities (e.g., may only be transferred to qualified institutional buyers and purchasers meeting other qualification requirements set by the issuer). As such, it may be difficult to sell municipal securities at a time when it may otherwise be desirable to do so or the Fund may be able to sell them only at prices that are less than what the Fund regards as their fair market value.

**Operational and Cybersecurity Risk.** The Fund and its service providers, and your ability to transact with the Fund, may be negatively impacted due to operational matters arising from, among other problems, human errors, processing and communications errors, counterparty and third-party disruptions or errors, systems and technology disruptions or failures, use of or integration of artificial intelligence ("AI"), or cybersecurity incidents. Cybersecurity incidents may allow an unauthorized party to gain access to fund assets, customer data, or proprietary

------

information, or cause the Fund or its service providers, as well as the securities trading venues and their service providers, to suffer data corruption or lose operational functionality, including those related to critical functions. Cybersecurity incidents can result from deliberate attacks or unintentional events. AI has enhanced the ability of threat actors to amplify the potency, scale, and speed of deliberate cybersecurity attacks. It is not possible for the Manager or the other Fund service providers to identify all of the cybersecurity or other operational risks that may affect the Fund or to develop processes and controls to completely eliminate or mitigate their occurrence or effects. Most issuers in which the Fund invests are heavily dependent on computers for data storage and operations, and require ready access to the internet to conduct their business. Thus, cybersecurity incidents could also affect issuers of securities in which the Fund invests, leading to significant loss of value.

**Recent Market Conditions.** Both U.S. and international markets have experienced significant volatility in recent years. As a result of such volatility, investment returns may fluctuate significantly. National economies are substantially interconnected, as are global financial markets, which creates the possibility that conditions in one country or region might adversely impact issuers in a different country or region. However, the interconnectedness of economies and/or markets may be diminishing or changing, which may impact such economies and markets in ways that cannot be foreseen at this time.

Some countries, including the U.S., have adopted more protectionist trade policies, which is a trend that appears to be continuing globally. Slowing global economic growth, the rise in protectionist trade policies, inflationary pressures, changes to some major international trade and security agreements, risks associated with the trade and security agreement between countries and regions, including the U.S. and other foreign nations, political or economic dysfunction within some countries or regions, including the U.S., and dramatic changes in consumer sentiment, commodity prices and currency values could affect the economies and markets of many nations, including the U.S., in ways that cannot necessarily be foreseen at the present time and may create significant volatility in the markets. In addition, these policies, including the impact on the U.S. dollar, may decrease foreign demand for U.S. assets, which could have a negative impact on certain issuers and/or industries.

The Federal Reserve and certain foreign central banks have started to lower interest rates, though economic or other factors, such as inflation, could stop such changes. It is difficult to accurately predict the pace at which interest rates might change, the timing, frequency or magnitude of any such changes in interest rates, or when such changes might stop or again reverse course. Additionally, various economic and political factors could cause the Federal Reserve or other foreign central banks to change their approach in the future and such actions may result in an economic slowdown both in the U.S. and abroad. Unexpected changes in interest rates could lead to significant market volatility or reduce liquidity in certain sectors of the market. Deteriorating economic fundamentals may, in turn, increase the risk of default or insolvency of particular issuers, negatively impact market value, cause credit spreads to widen, and reduce bank balance sheets. Any of these could cause an increase in market volatility, reduce liquidity across various markets or decrease confidence in the markets.

Regulators in the U.S. have adopted a number of changes to regulations involving the markets and issuers, some of which apply to the Fund. The full effect of such regulations is not currently known and certain changes to regulation could limit the Fund's ability to pursue its investment strategies or make certain investments, may make it more costly for it to operate, or adversely impact performance. Additionally, it is possible that such regulations could be further revised or rescinded, which creates material uncertainty on their impact to the Fund.

Advancements in technology, including advanced development and increased regulation of artificial intelligence, may adversely impact market movements and liquidity. As artificial intelligence is used more widely, which can occur relatively rapidly, the profitability and growth of certain issuers and industries may be negatively impacted in ways that cannot be foreseen and could adversely impact its performance.

Tensions, war, or open conflict between nations, such as between Russia and Ukraine, in the Middle East, or in eastern Asia could affect the economies of many nations, including the United States. The duration of ongoing hostilities and any sanctions and related events cannot be predicted. Those events present material uncertainty

------

and risk with respect to markets globally and the performance of the Fund and its investments or operations could be negatively impacted.

An economic slowdown could cause municipal issuers to suffer declines in tax revenue and it may be difficult to evaluate the effect on any single issuer. Some municipal issuers may be prohibited by law from borrowing, and those that can borrow may face higher interest rates. This situation may result in disruption of municipal programs and services.

High public debt in the U.S. and other countries creates ongoing systemic and market risks and policymaking uncertainty. There is no assurance that the U.S. Congress will act to raise the nation's debt ceiling; a failure to do so could cause market turmoil and substantial investment risks that cannot now be fully predicted. Unexpected political, regulatory and diplomatic events within the U.S. and abroad may affect investor and consumer confidence and may adversely impact financial markets and the broader economy.

Global climate change can have potential effects on property and security values. Certain issuers, industries and regions may be adversely affected by the impact of climate change in ways that cannot be foreseen. The impact of legislation, regulation and international accords related to climate change, including any direct or indirect consequences that may not be foreseen, may negatively impact certain issuers, industries and regions.

**Risk Management.** Risk is an essential part of investing. No risk management program can eliminate the Fund's exposure to adverse events; at best, it may only reduce the possibility that the Fund will be affected by such events, and especially those risks that are not intrinsic to the Fund's investment program. The Fund could experience losses if judgments about risk prove to be incorrect.

**Sector Risk.** From time to time, based on market or economic conditions, the Fund may have significant positions in one or more sectors of the market. To the extent the Fund invests more heavily in particular sectors, its performance will be especially sensitive to developments that significantly affect those sectors. Individual sectors or sub-sectors may be more volatile, and may perform differently, than the broader market. The industries that constitute a sector may all react in the same way to economic, political or regulatory events.

**Shareholder Activism Risk.** Shareholder activism can take many forms, including making public demands that the Fund consider certain alternatives, engaging in public campaigns to attempt to influence the Fund's governance and/or management, commencing proxy contests in an effort to elect the activists' representatives or others to the Fund's Board of Directors or to seek other actions such as a tender offer or Fund liquidation, and commencing litigation. Shareholder activism arises in a variety of situations and has been increasing in the closed-end fund space recently, including litigation challenging closed-end fund defenses. Due to the potential volatility of the Fund's common stock market price and for a variety of other reasons, the Fund may become the target of shareholder activism. Shareholder activism could result in substantial costs and divert Management's and the Fund's Board's attention and resources from its business. Also, the Fund may be required to incur significant legal and other expenses related to any activist shareholder matters. Further, the Fund's stock price could be subject to significant fluctuation or otherwise be adversely affected by the events, risks and uncertainties of any shareholder activism. Shareholder activists seek short-term actions that can increase Fund costs per share and be detrimental to other stockholders.

**Tender Option Bonds and Related Securities Risk.** The Fund's use of tender option bonds may reduce the Fund's return and/or increase volatility. Tender option bonds are created when municipal bonds are deposited into a trust or other special purpose vehicle, which issues two classes of certificates with varying economic interests. Holders of the first class of interests, or floating rate certificates, receive tax-exempt interest based on short-term rates and may tender the certificates to the trust at face value. A remarketing agent for the trust is required to attempt to resell any tendered floating rate certificates and if the remarketing agent is unsuccessful, the trust's liquidity provider must contribute cash to ensure that the tendering holders receive the purchase price of their securities on the repurchase date. Holders of the second class of interests, or residual income certificates (commonly referred to as "inverse floaters"), receive tax-exempt interest at a rate based on the difference

------

between the interest rate earned on the underlying bonds and the interest paid to floating rate certificate holders, and bear the risk that the underlying bonds decline in value. The distributions from inverse floaters will be reduced (and potentially eliminated) if short-term interest rates increase. Investments in tender option bonds expose the Fund to counterparty risk and leverage risk. Tender option bonds may have some of the same characteristics as an investment in derivatives. An investment in tender option bonds typically will involve greater risk than an investment in a municipal fixed rate security, including greater risk of loss of principal. Certain tender option bonds may be illiquid. In certain instances, a trust may be terminated if, for example, the issuer of the underlying bond defaults on interest payments, the credit rating assigned to the issuer of the underlying bond is downgraded, or tendered floating rate certificates cannot be resold.

**Valuation Risk.** The Fund may not be able to sell an investment at the price at which the Fund has valued the investment. Such differences could be significant, particularly for illiquid securities and securities that trade in relatively thin markets and/or markets that experience extreme volatility. If market or other conditions make it difficult to value an investment, the Fund may be required to value such investments using more subjective methods, known as fair value methodologies. Using fair value methodologies to price investments may result in a value that is different from an investment's most recent price and from the prices used by other funds to calculate their NAVs. The Fund uses pricing services to provide values for certain securities and there is no assurance that the Fund will be able to sell an investment at the price established by such pricing services. The Fund's ability to value its investments in an accurate and timely manner may be impacted by technological issues and/or errors by third party service providers, such as pricing services or accounting agents.

Distribution Reinvestment Plan for the Fund

Equiniti Trust Company, LLC (the "Plan Agent") will act as Plan Agent for stockholders who have not elected in writing to receive dividends and distributions in cash (each a "Participant"), will open an account for each Participant under the Distribution Reinvestment Plan ("Plan") in the same name as their then-current shares of the Fund's common stock ("Shares") are registered, and will put the Plan into effect for each Participant as of the first record date for a dividend or capital gains distribution.

Whenever the Fund declares a dividend or distribution with respect to the Shares, each Participant will receive such dividends and distributions in additional Shares, including fractional Shares acquired by the Plan Agent and credited to each Participant's account. If on the payment date for a cash dividend or distribution, the net asset value is equal to or less than the market price per Share plus estimated brokerage commissions, the Plan Agent shall automatically receive such Shares, including fractions, for each Participant's account. Except in the circumstances described in the next paragraph, the number of additional Shares to be credited to each Participant's account shall be determined by dividing the dollar amount of the dividend or distribution payable on their Shares by the greater of the net asset value per Share determined as of the date of purchase or 95% of the then-current market price per Share on the payment date.

Should the net asset value per Share exceed the market price per Share plus estimated brokerage commissions on the payment date for a cash dividend or distribution, the Plan Agent or a broker-dealer selected by the Plan Agent shall endeavor, for a purchase period lasting until the last business day before the next date on which the Shares trade on an "ex-dividend" basis, but in no event, except as provided below, more than 30 days after the payment date, to apply the amount of such dividend or distribution on each Participant's Shares (less their pro rata share of brokerage commissions incurred with respect to the Plan Agent's open-market purchases in connection with the reinvestment of such dividend or distribution) to purchase Shares on the open market for each Participant's account. No such purchases may be made more than 30 days after the payment date for such dividend or distribution except where temporary curtailment or suspension of purchase is necessary to comply with applicable provisions of federal securities laws. If, at the close of business on any day during the purchase period the net asset value per Share equals or is less than the market price per Share plus estimated brokerage commissions, the Plan Agent will not make any further open-market purchases in connection with the reinvestment of such dividend or distribution. If the Plan Agent is unable to invest the full dividend or distribution amount through open-market purchases during the purchase period, the Plan Agent shall request that, with respect to the uninvested portion of such dividend or distribution amount, the Fund issue new Shares at the close of business on the earlier of the last day of the purchase period or the first day during the purchase period on which the net asset value per Share equals or is less than the market price per Share, plus estimated brokerage commissions, such Shares to be issued in accordance with the terms specified in the third paragraph hereof. These newly issued Shares will be valued at the then-current market price per Share at the time such Shares are to be issued.

For purposes of making the reinvestment purchase comparison under the Plan, (a) the market price of the Shares on a particular date shall be the last sales price on the New York Stock Exchange (or if the Shares are not listed on the New York Stock Exchange, such other exchange on which the Shares are principally traded) on that date, or, if there is no sale on such Exchange (or if not so listed, in the over-the-counter market) on that date, then the mean between the closing bid and asked quotations for such Shares on such Exchange on such date and (b) the net asset value per Share on a particular date shall be the net asset value per Share most recently calculated by or on behalf of the Fund. All dividends, distributions and other payments (whether made in cash or Shares) shall be made net of any applicable withholding tax.

Open-market purchases provided for above may be made on any securities exchange where the Fund's Shares are traded, in the over-the-counter market or in negotiated transactions and may be on such terms as to price, delivery and otherwise as the Plan Agent shall determine. Each Participant's uninvested funds held by the Plan Agent will not bear interest, and it is understood that, in any event, the Plan Agent shall have no liability in

------

connection with any inability to purchase Shares within 30 days after the initial date of such purchase as herein provided, or with the timing of any purchases effected. The Plan Agent shall have no responsibility as to the value of the Shares acquired for each Participant's account. For the purpose of cash investments, the Plan Agent may commingle each Participant's funds with those of other stockholders of the Fund for whom the Plan Agent similarly acts as agent, and the average price (including brokerage commissions) of all Shares purchased by the Plan Agent as Plan Agent shall be the price per Share allocable to each Participant in connection therewith.

The Plan Agent may hold each Participant's Shares acquired pursuant to the Plan together with the Shares of other stockholders of the Fund acquired pursuant to the Plan in noncertificated form in the Plan Agent's name or that of the Plan Agent's nominee. The Plan Agent will forward to each Participant any proxy solicitation material and will vote any Shares so held for each Participant only in accordance with the instructions set forth on proxies returned by the Participant to the Fund.

The Plan Agent will confirm to each Participant each acquisition made for their account as soon as practicable but not later than 60 days after the date thereof. Although each Participant may from time to time have an undivided fractional interest (computed to three decimal places) in a Share, no certificates for a fractional Share will be issued. However, dividends and distributions on fractional Shares will be credited to each Participant's account. In the event of termination of a Participant's account under the Plan, the Plan Agent will adjust for any such undivided fractional interest in cash at the market value of the Shares at the time of termination, less the pro rata expense of any sale required to make such an adjustment.

Any Share dividends or split Shares distributed by the Fund on Shares held by the Plan Agent for Participants will be credited to their accounts. In the event that the Fund makes available to its stockholders rights to purchase additional Shares or other securities, the Shares held for each Participant under the Plan will be added to other Shares held by the Participant in calculating the number of rights to be issued to each Participant.

The Plan Agent's service fee for handling capital gains and other distributions or income dividends will be paid by the Fund. Participants will be charged their pro rata share of brokerage commissions on all open-market purchases.

Each Participant may terminate their account under the Plan by notifying the Plan Agent in writing. Such termination will be effective immediately if the Participant's notice is received by the Plan Agent not less than ten days prior to any dividend or distribution record date, otherwise such termination will be effective the first trading day after the payment date for such dividend or distribution with respect to any subsequent dividend or distribution. The Plan may be terminated by the Plan Agent or the Fund upon notice in writing mailed to each Participant at least 30 days prior to any record date for the payment of any dividend or distribution by the Fund.

These terms and conditions may be amended or supplemented by the Plan Agent or the Fund at any time or times but, except when necessary or appropriate to comply with applicable law or the rules or policies of the Securities and Exchange Commission or any other regulatory authority, only by mailing to each Participant appropriate written notice at least 30 days prior to the effective date thereof. The amendment or supplement shall be deemed to be accepted by each Participant unless, prior to the effective date thereof, the Plan Agent receives written notice of the termination of their account under the Plan. Any such amendment may include an appointment by the Plan Agent in its place and stead of a successor Plan Agent under these terms and conditions, with full power and authority to perform all or any of the acts to be performed by the Plan Agent under these terms and conditions. Upon any such appointment of any Plan Agent for the purpose of receiving dividends and distributions, the Fund will be authorized to pay to such successor Plan Agent, for each Participant's account, all dividends and distributions payable on Shares held in their name or under the Plan for retention or application by such successor Plan Agent as provided in these terms and conditions.

The Plan Agent shall at all times act in good faith and agrees to use its best efforts within reasonable limits to ensure the accuracy of all services performed under this Agreement and to comply with applicable law, but assumes no responsibility and shall not be liable for loss or damage due to errors unless such error is caused by

------

the Plan Agent's negligence, bad faith, or willful misconduct or that of its employees. These terms and conditions are governed by the laws of the State of Maryland.

Reinvested dividends and distributions are taxed in the same manner as cash dividends and distributions — i.e., reinvestment in additional Shares does not relieve stockholders of, or defer the need to pay, any income tax that may be payable (or that is required to be withheld) on Fund dividends and distributions. Participants should contact their tax professionals for information on how the Plan impacts their personal tax situation. For additional information about the Plan, please contact the Plan Agent by telephone at 1-866-227-2136 or by mail at P.O. Box 10027, Newark, NJ 07101-3027 or online at https://equiniti.com/us/ast-access/individuals.

Board Consideration of the Management Agreement

On an annual basis, the Board of Directors (the "Board" or "Directors") of Neuberger Municipal Fund Inc. (the "Fund"), including the Directors who are not "interested persons" of the Fund or of Neuberger Berman Investment Advisers LLC (with its affiliates, "Management"), as such term is defined under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended ("1940 Act"), ("Independent Fund Directors"), considers whether to continue the Fund's management agreement with Management (the "Agreement"). Throughout the process, the Independent Fund Directors are advised by counsel that is experienced in 1940 Act matters and that is independent of Management ("Independent Counsel"). At a meeting held on October 9, 2025, the Board, including the Independent Fund Directors, approved the continuation of the Agreement for the Fund. In reaching its determination, the Board considered all factors it believed relevant, including (i) the nature, extent, and quality of the services provided to the Fund and its stockholders; (ii) a comparison of the Fund's performance, fees and expenses relative to its benchmark, various peers or similar accounts, as applicable; (iii) the costs of the services provided by, and the estimated profit or loss to, Management from its relationships with the Fund; (iv) any apparent or anticipated economies of scale in relation to the services Management provides to the Fund and whether any such economies of scale are shared with Fund stockholders; and (v) any "fall-out" benefits likely to accrue to Management and its affiliates from their relationship with the Fund.

In evaluating the Fund's Agreement, the Board, including the Independent Fund Directors, reviewed extensive materials provided by Management in response to questions submitted by the Independent Fund Directors and Independent Counsel, which the Contract Review Committee annually considers and updates. It also met with senior representatives of Management regarding its personnel, operations, and profitability as they relate to the Fund. The annual contract review extends over at least two regular meetings of the Board to allow Management additional time to respond to any questions the Independent Fund Directors may have on their initial review of the materials and for the Independent Fund Directors to consider those responses.

In connection with its deliberations, the Board also considered the broad range of information relevant to the annual contract review that is provided to the Board (including its various standing committees) at meetings throughout the year, including reports on investment performance based on net asset value and common stock market prices, portfolio risk, use of leverage, and information regarding share price premiums and/or discounts. In addition, the Board established the Contract Review Committee, which is comprised solely of Independent Fund Directors, to assist in its evaluation and analysis of materials for the annual contract review. Those standing committees provide reports to the full Board, including the members of the Contract Review Committee, which consider that information as part of the annual contract review process.

The Independent Fund Directors received from Independent Counsel a memorandum discussing the legal standards for their consideration of the proposed continuation of the Agreement. During the course of the year and during their deliberations regarding the annual contract review, the Contract Review Committee and the Independent Fund Directors met with Independent Counsel separately from representatives of Management.

Provided below is a description of the Board's contract approval process and material factors that the Board considered at its meetings regarding renewal of the Agreement and the compensation to be paid thereunder. In connection with its approval of the continuation of the Agreement, the Board evaluated the terms of the Agreement, the overall fairness of the Agreement to the Fund, and whether the Agreement was in the best interests of the Fund and Fund stockholders. The Board's determination to approve the continuation of the Agreement was based on a comprehensive consideration of all information provided to the Board throughout the year and in connection with the annual contract review.

This description is not intended to include all of the factors considered by the Board. The Board members did not identify any particular information or factor that was all-important or controlling, and each Director may have attributed different weights to the various factors. Additionally, the information and factors considered, and

------

weight placed on any particular information or factor may change over time. The Board focused on the costs and benefits of the Agreement to the Fund and, through the Fund, Fund stockholders.

Nature, Extent, and Quality of Services

With respect to the nature, extent, and quality of the services provided, the Board considered the investment philosophy and decision-making processes of, and the qualifications, experience, capabilities, and succession plans of, and the resources available to, the portfolio management personnel of Management who perform services for the Fund. The Board also considered Management's long history and experience in managing and operating closed-end funds, such as the Fund, including experience monitoring and assessing discounts and premiums (including the potential impact of distribution rates and yields thereon) and complying with securities exchange requirements. The Board noted that Management also provides certain administrative services, including fund accounting and compliance services. The Board also considered Management's policies and practices regarding trade execution, trading costs, and allocation of portfolio transactions and reviewed the quality of the execution services that Management had provided. Moreover, the Board considered Management's approach to potential conflicts of interest both generally and between the Fund's investments and those of other funds or accounts managed by Management.

The Board recognized the extensive range of services that Management provides to the Fund beyond the investment management services. The Board noted that Management is also responsible for monitoring compliance with the Fund's investment objective, policies, and restrictions, as well as compliance with applicable law, including implementing regulatory initiatives of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission and other regulators. In addition, the Board considered that Management has developed a leverage structure for the Fund tailored to its investment strategy and needs, has monitored the Fund's ongoing compliance with legal and other restrictions associated with its leverage, and has recommended changes in and/or amendments to the amount or structure of its leverage over time, including changes that reduced the overall cost (or limited anticipated increases in the costs) of leverage. The Board also considered the various notable initiatives and projects Management performed in connection with its closed-end fund product line. These initiatives included ongoing services to manage leverage that has become increasingly complex; and continued communication efforts with stockholders. The Board also considered that Management assumes significant ongoing entrepreneurial and business risks as the investment adviser and sponsor to the Fund, for which it is entitled to reasonable compensation. The Board also considered that Management's responsibilities include continual management of investment, operational, cybersecurity, enterprise, valuation, liquidity, legal, regulatory, and compliance risks as they relate to the Fund, and the Board considers on a regular basis information regarding Management's processes for monitoring and managing risk.

The Board also reviewed and evaluated Management's activities under its contractual obligation to oversee the Fund's various outside service providers, including its evaluation of service providers' infrastructure, cybersecurity programs, compliance programs, and business continuity programs, among other matters. The Board also considered Management's ongoing development of its own infrastructure and information technology to support the Fund through, among other things, cybersecurity, business continuity planning, and risk management. In addition, the Board noted the positive compliance history of Management, as no significant compliance problems were reported to the Board with respect to Management. The Board also considered the general structure of the portfolio managers' compensation and whether this structure provides appropriate incentives to act in the best interests of the Fund. The Board also considered the ability of Management to attract and retain qualified personnel to service the Fund and the ability to plan for succession. The Board also noted that Management actively monitors any discount from net asset value per share at which the Fund's common stock trades and evaluates potential ways to mitigate the discount and potential impacts on the discount, including the level of distributions and resulting distribution rates that the Fund pays, both on an absolute basis and relative to funds that Management believes are peer funds. The Board likewise took into account that Management monitors, to the extent information is publicly available, events that may disrupt the Fund's long-term investment program.

------

Fund Performance

The Board requested a report from an outside consulting firm that specializes in the analysis of fund industry data that compared the Fund's performance, along with its fees and other expenses, to various peers, including a group of industry peers ("Expense Group") and a broader universe of funds pursuing generally similar strategies with the same investment classification and/or objective ("Performance Universe"). The Board considered the Fund's performance and fees in light of the limitations inherent in the consulting firm's methodology for constructing such comparative groups and determining which investment companies should be included in the comparative groups, noting differences as compared to certain fund industry ranking and rating systems. The Board also considered the impact and inherent limitation on the comparisons due to the number of funds included in the Expense Group and Performance Universe. In this regard, the Board recognized that the number of leveraged closed-end funds pursuing similar strategies with the same investment classification and/or objective as the Fund has decreased over time. The Board also recognized the limitations inherent in comparing the Fund's performance to a benchmark index due to the Fund's use of leverage and pursuit of an investment strategy that is not tied directly to an index. The Board also recognized the inherent limitations in comparing performance of peer funds utilizing leverage in light of, among other things, the impacts due to the level and type of leverage utilized and when peer funds entered into their leverage arrangements (which can impact pricing and, therefore, cost and performance). The Board also considered the premium/discount levels at which peer funds traded along with the distribution rates and yields of those funds versus the Fund.

With respect to investment performance, the Board considered information regarding the Fund's short-, intermediate- and long-term performance, net of the Fund's fees and expenses, on an absolute basis, relative to a benchmark index that does not deduct the fees or expenses of investing, and compared to the performance of its Performance Universe. The Board also reviewed performance in relation to certain measures of the degree of investment risk undertaken by the portfolio managers.

The Performance Universe referenced in this section was identified by the consulting firm, as discussed above. In the case of underperformance for any of the periods reported, the Board considered the magnitude and duration of that underperformance relative to the Performance Universe and/or the benchmark (e.g., the amount by which the Fund underperformed, including, for example, whether the Fund slightly underperformed or significantly underperformed its benchmark). With respect to performance quintiles for the Fund compared to its Performance Universe, the first quintile represents the highest (best) performance and the fifth quintile represents the lowest performance.

The Board considered that, based on performance data for the periods ended March 31, 2025: (1) as compared to its benchmark, the Fund's performance was lower for the 1-, 3-, 5- and 10-year periods; and (2) as compared to its Performance Universe, the Fund's performance was in the fifth quintile for the 1-, 5- and 10-year periods and the fourth quintile for the 3-year period.

The Board identified the Fund as having underperformed in certain of these comparisons to an extent, and/or over a period of time, that the Board felt warranted additional inquiry, and discussed with Management the Fund's performance, potential reasons for the relative performance, and steps that Management had taken, or intended to take, to improve performance. The Board's Closed-End Funds Committee also met with representatives of the portfolio managers of the Fund during the 12 months prior to voting on the contract renewal to discuss the Fund's performance, distribution levels, and the use of leverage. The Board noted that the type, amount and term of the leverage are consistent with the portfolio managers' preferences for the Fund's investment strategy. The Board also took into account the impact the Fund's leverage arrangements had on performance. The Board also considered Management's responsiveness with respect to the relative performance. The Board recognized that the performance data reflects a snapshot of a period as of a particular date and that selecting a different performance period could produce significantly different results. The Board further acknowledged that long-term performance could be impacted by even one period of significant outperformance or underperformance. In this regard, the Board noted that performance is only one of the factors that it deems relevant to its consideration of the

------

Agreement and that, after considering all relevant factors, it can determine to approve the continuation of the Agreement notwithstanding the Fund's relative performance.

Fee Rates, Profitability, and Fall-out Benefits

With respect to the overall fairness of the Agreement, the Board considered the fee structure for the Fund under the Agreement as compared to the Expense Group provided by the consulting firm, as discussed above. The Board reviewed a comparison of the Fund's management fee to its Expense Group. The Board noted that the comparative management fee analysis includes, in the Fund's management fee, the separate administrative fees paid to Management. However, the Board noted that some funds in the Expense Group pay directly from fund assets for certain services that Management covers out of the administration fees for the Fund. Accordingly, the Board also considered the Fund's total expense ratio as compared with its Expense Group as a way of taking account of these differences. In addition, the Board considered whether there were other funds or separate accounts that were advised or sub-advised by Management or its affiliates with investment objectives, policies, and strategies that were similar to those of the Fund. The Board considered that only leveraged closed-end funds were considered for inclusion in the Expense Group presented for comparison with the Fund but also noted the challenges associated with making comparisons regarding expenses for leveraged closed-end funds. The Board took into account Management's representations that relevant expenses would be difficult for the consulting firm to fully and accurately identify due to, among other things, differences in the type of leverage used and the way such leverage costs are reported. The Board also considered Management's representations regarding the potential impact on expenses due to the time at which the funds in the Expense Group entered into their leverage arrangements and the funds' fiscal year-ends (which determine the time period for which leverage costs are reported). With this understanding, the Board also considered the impact of investment-related expenses (which include leverage expenses) and taxes on the total expenses of the Fund and the funds in the Expense Group that the consulting firm was able to identify. The Board also considered Management's representations that there were certain characteristics of leverage that increased leverage expenses but provided benefits and value to stockholders that were not reflected in the Fund's expense ratio. The Board also considered that, in comparison to certain other products managed by Management, including open-end funds, there are additional portfolio management challenges in managing closed-end funds such as the Fund, including those associated with less liquid holdings and the use of leverage.

The Board considered the Fund's contractual management fee on managed assets (generally consisting of net assets plus leverage proceeds), as well as the actual management fee on managed assets as a percentage of assets attributable to common stockholders as compared to the Fund's Expense Group. The Board was aware of the additional expenses borne by common stockholders as a result of the Fund's leveraged structure. The Board took into account that Management has a financial incentive for the Fund to continue to use leverage, which may create a conflict of interest. It also considered Management's representation that it continues to believe the use of leverage is in the best interests of the Fund's stockholders regardless of the level of compensation Management receives. With respect to the quintiles for fees and total expenses (net of waivers or other adjustments, if any) on managed assets for the Fund compared to its Expense Group, the first quintile represents the lowest (best) fees and/or total expenses and the fifth quintile represents the highest fees and/or total expenses. The Board considered that, as compared to its Expense Group, the Fund's contractual management fee and actual management fee each ranked in the first quintile, the total expenses ranked in the fourth quintile, and the total expenses excluding the investment-related expenses and taxes identified by the consulting firm ranked in the second quintile.

In determining to renew the Agreement, the Board took into account Management's representations regarding the effect that the cost of leverage had on the Fund's total expenses relative to its peers with different types and levels of leverage and noted Management's efforts to ensure the Fund's leverage arrangements were among the best available for a fund of its size and investment strategy and with its preferences regarding types and levels of leverage at the time the Fund entered into its leverage arrangements. In addition, the Board considered its

------

Closed-End Fund Committee's ongoing evaluation of the Fund, including the use of leverage and the specific leverage arrangements.

In concluding that the benefits accruing to Management by virtue of its relationship with the Fund were reasonable in light of the costs of providing the investment advisory and other services and the benefits accruing to the Fund, the Board reviewed specific data as to Management's estimated profit on the Fund for a recent period on a pre-tax basis without regard to distribution expenses. (The Board also reviewed data on Management's estimated profit on the Fund after distribution expenses and taxes were factored in, as indicators of the health of the business and the extent to which Management is directing its profits into the growth of the business.) The Board considered the cost allocation methodology that Management used in developing its estimated profitability figures. In addition, the Board engaged an independent accounting firm in prior years to review the profitability methodology utilized by Management when preparing this information and discussed with the accounting firm its conclusion that Management's process for calculating and reporting its estimated profit aligned with the accounting firm's guiding principles and industry practices.

The Board further noted Management's representation that its estimate of profitability is derived using a methodology that is consistent with the methodology used to assess and/or report measures of profitability elsewhere at the firm. In addition, the Board recognized that Management's calculations regarding its costs may not reflect all risks, including regulatory, legal, operational, cybersecurity, reputational, and, where appropriate, entrepreneurial risks, associated with offering and managing a closed-end fund in the current regulatory and market environment. The Board also considered any fall-out (i.e., indirect) benefits likely to accrue to Management or its affiliates from their relationship with the Fund. The Board recognized that Management and its affiliates should be entitled to earn a reasonable level of profits for services they provide to the Fund and, based on review, concluded that Management's reported level of estimated profitability on the Fund was reasonable.

Economies of Scale

The Board also evaluated apparent or anticipated economies of scale in relation to the services Management provides to the Fund and noted that there is little expectation that closed-end funds will show significant economies of scale. The Board considered that, as a closed-end investment company, the Fund does not continually offer new shares to raise additional assets (as does a typical open-end investment company), but may experience asset growth through investment performance and/or the increased use of leverage. Additionally, the Board considered that, at times when the Fund's shares have traded at or close to a premium to its net asset value per share, the Fund has conducted a rights offering to raise additional assets, most recently in 2025. The Board also considered that Management has provided, at no added cost to the Fund, certain additional services, including but not limited to, services required by new regulations or regulatory interpretations, services impelled by changes in the securities markets or the business landscape, and/or services requested by the Board. The Board considered that this is a way of sharing economies of scale with the Fund and its stockholders.

Conclusions

In approving the continuation of the Agreement, the Board concluded that, in its business judgment, the terms of the Agreement are fair and reasonable to the Fund and that approval of the continuation of the Agreement is in the best interests of the Fund and Fund stockholders. In reaching this determination, the Board considered that Management could be expected to continue to provide a high level of service to the Fund; that the Board retained confidence in Management's capabilities to manage the Fund; that the Fund's fee structure appeared to the Board to be reasonable given the nature, extent, and quality of services provided; and that the benefits accruing to Management by virtue of its relationship with the Fund were reasonable in light of the costs of providing the investment advisory and other services and the benefits accruing to the Fund. The Board's conclusions are based in part on its consideration of materials prepared in connection with the approval or continuance of the Agreement

------

in prior years and on the Board's ongoing regular review of Fund performance and operations throughout the year, in addition to material prepared specifically for the most recent annual review of the Agreement.

#### Item 12. Disclosure of Proxy Voting Policies and Procedures for Closed-End Management Investment Companies.
As of October 31, 2025, the Board has delegated to Neuberger Berman Investment Advisers LLC ("NBIA") the responsibility to vote proxies related to the securities held in the Registrant's portfolio. Under this authority, NBIA is required by the Board to vote proxies related to portfolio securities in the best interests of the Registrant and its stockholders. The Board permits NBIA to contract with a third party to obtain proxy voting and related services, including research of current issues.

NBIA has implemented written Proxy Voting Policies and Procedures ("Proxy Voting Policy") that are designed to reasonably ensure that NBIA votes proxies prudently and in the best interest of its advisory clients for whom NBIA has voting authority, including the Registrant. The Proxy Voting Policy also describes how NBIA addresses any conflicts that may arise between its interests and those of its clients with respect to proxy voting.

NBIA's Governance and Proxy Committee ("Proxy Committee") is responsible for developing, authorizing, implementing and updating the Proxy Voting Policy, administering and overseeing the proxy voting process and engaging and overseeing any independent third-party vendors as voting delegates to review, monitor and/or vote proxies. In order to apply the Proxy Voting Policy noted above in a timely and consistent manner, NBIA utilizes Glass, Lewis & Co. ("Glass Lewis") to vote proxies in accordance with NBIA's voting guidelines or, in instances where a material conflict has been determined to exist, in accordance with the voting recommendations of an independent third party.

NBIA retains final authority and fiduciary responsibility for proxy voting. NBIA believes that this process is reasonably designed to address material conflicts of interest that may arise between NBIA and a client as to how proxies are voted.

In the event that an investment professional at NBIA believes that it is in the best interests of a client or clients to vote proxies in a manner inconsistent with the voting guidelines, the Proxy Committee will review information submitted by the investment professional to determine that there is no material conflict of interest between NBIA and the client with respect to the voting of the proxy in the requested manner.

If the Proxy Committee determines that the voting of a proxy as recommended by the investment professional would not be appropriate, the Proxy Committee shall: (i) take no further action, in which case Glass Lewis shall vote such proxy in accordance with the voting guidelines; (ii) disclose such conflict to the client or clients and obtain written direction from the client as to how to vote the proxy; (iii) suggest that the client or clients engage another party to determine how to vote the proxy; or (iv) engage another independent third party to determine how to vote the proxy.

Compensation for Portfolio Managers consists of either (i) fixed (salary) and variable (discretionary bonus) compensation but is more heavily weighted on the variable portion of total compensation, (ii) on a production model, whereby formulaic compensation is paid from the team compensation pool on a fixed schedule (typically monthly) or (iii) a combination of salary, bonus and/or production compensation. Compensation is paid from a team compensation pool made available to the portfolio management team with which the Portfolio Manager is associated. The size of the team compensation pool is determined based on a formula that takes into consideration a number of factors including the pre-tax revenue that is generated by that particular portfolio management team, less certain adjustments. The amount allocated to individual portfolio managers is determined on the basis of a variety of criteria, including investment performance (including the aggregate multi-year track record), utilization of central resources (including research, sales and operations/support), business building to further the longer term sustainable success of the investment team, effective team/people management, and overall contribution to the success of Neuberger Berman. Certain Portfolio Managers may manage products other than mutual funds, such as high net worth separate accounts. The percentage of pre-tax revenue a Portfolio Manager receives pursuant to any such arrangement will vary based on certain revenue thresholds.

The terms of our long-term retention incentives are as follows:

*Employee-Owned Equity*. Certain employees (primarily senior leadership and investment professionals) participated in Neuberger Berman's equity ownership structure, which was launched as part of the firm's management buyout in 2009 and designed to incentivize and retain key personnel. We currently offer an equity acquisition program which allows employees a more direct opportunity to invest in Neuberger Berman.

For confidentiality and privacy reasons, we cannot disclose individual equity holdings or program participation.

*Contingent Compensation Plan*. Certain employees may participate in the Neuberger Berman Group Contingent Compensation Plan (the "CCP") to serve as a means to further align the interests of our employees with the success of the firm and the interests of our clients, and to reward continued employment. Under the CCP, up to 20% of a participant's annual total compensation in excess of $500,000 is contingent and subject to vesting. The contingent amounts are maintained in a notional account that is tied to the performance of a portfolio of Neuberger Berman investment strategies as specified by the firm on an employee-by-employee basis. By having a participant's contingent compensation tied to Neuberger Berman investment strategies, each employee is given further incentive to operate as a prudent risk manager and to collaborate with colleagues to maximize performance across all business areas. In the case of members of investment teams, including Portfolio Managers, the CCP is currently structured so that such employees have exposure to the investment strategies of their respective teams as well as the broader Neuberger Berman portfolio.

*Restrictive Covenants*. Most investment professionals, including Portfolio Managers, are subject to notice periods and restrictive covenants which include employee and client non-solicit restrictions as well as restrictions on the use of confidential information. In addition, depending on participation levels, certain senior professionals who have received equity grants have also agreed to additional notice and transition periods and, in some cases, non-compete restrictions. For confidentiality and privacy reasons, we cannot disclose individual restrictive covenant arrangements.
