  • The tender offer price will be 99% of the Fund's net asset value per share as of the close of trading on the NYSE on the expiration date.

  • The tender offer is contingent upon shareholder approval of the reorganization at a special meeting scheduled for March 11, 2026.

  • The reorganization is currently anticipated to occur on or around June 1, 2026, with the tender offer commencing shortly after the March 11 meeting if approved.
  • If more shares are tendered than the 50% maximum, the Fund will purchase shares on a pro-rata basis.
  • A joint prospectus/proxy statement dated January 29, 2026, was mailed to shareholders in February 2026 with further reorganization details.
  • Formal offer documents will be filed with the SEC on Schedule TO & will be available free of charge at www.sec.gov.
