The timing and character of distributions for federal income tax
purposes are determined in accordance with income tax regulations
which may differ from GAAP. As such, all or a portion of this
distribution may be reportable as taxable income on your 2019
federal income tax return. The final tax character of any
distribution declared in 2019 will be determined in January 2020
and reported to you on IRS Form 1099-DIV.
The amounts and sources of distributions reported in this
19(a) Notice are only estimates and not for tax reporting purposes.
The actual amounts and sources of the amounts for tax reporting
purposes will depend upon the Fund’s investment experience during
the remainder of its fiscal year and may be subject to changes
based on tax regulations. The Fund will send you a Form 1099-DIV
for the calendar year that will tell you how to report these
distributions for federal income tax purposes.
Presented below are return figures, based on the change in the
Fund’s Net Asset Value per share (“NAV”), compared to the
annualized distribution rate for this current distribution as a
percentage of the NAV on the last day of the month prior to
distribution record date.

** The 5-year average annual total return is based on change in
NAV including distributions paid and assuming reinvestment of these

prior to the month of the current distribution record date.
While the NAV performance may be indicative of the Fund’s
investment performance, it does not measure the value of a
shareholder’s investment in the Fund. The value of a shareholder’s
investment in the Fund is determined by the Fund’s market price,
which is based on the supply and demand for the Fund’s shares in
the open market. Past performance does not guarantee future
results. Shareholders should not draw any conclusions about the
Fund’s investment performance from the amount of this distribution
or from the terms of the Fund’s Managed Distribution Plan.
Furthermore, the Board of Trustees reviews the amount of any
potential distribution and the income, capital gain or capital
available. The Board of Trustees will continue to monitor the
Fund’s distribution level, taking into consideration the Fund’s net
asset value and the financial market environment. The Fund’s
distribution policy is subject to modification by the Board of
Trustees at any time. The distribution rate should not be
considered the dividend yield or total return on an investment in
the Fund.
