Hello, my name is (DIRECTOR NAME). May I please speak with (SHAREHOLDER'S FULL NAME)?

*(Repeat the greeting if necessary)*

 

I am calling regarding your current investment in The China Fund, Inc. As announced previously, the Fund's Board of Directors approved a plan of liquidation and dissolution for the Fund, and recommends that the Fund's stockholders vote for the liquidation of the Fund at the upcoming Special Meeting of Stockholders to be held on October 21, 2025. The Special Meeting will be held virtually by conference call commencing at 11 a.m., Eastern Time. Details of the proposed liquidation are included in the Fund's Proxy Statement, a copy of which is available on the Fund's website and will be mailed on or about October 9, 2025. On behalf of the other members of the Board, I would like to ask you to support the proposed liquidation of the Fund by voting your interest in the Fund as soon as practicable.

In determining to liquidate the Fund, the Board considered a variety of factors including, among others, the size of the Fund, the trading volume of the Fund's shares, the Fund's discount to net asset value, the availability of competing open-end products, such as exchange-traded funds, and prevailing geopolitical and market conditions. The Board also considered alternatives, including converting the Fund into an open-end management investment company. On balance, the Board determined that the liquidation of the Fund is in the best interests of the Fund and its stockholders. Do you have any questions about the proposed liquidation that I can answer?
