The dividends are set at 3.25 cents per share for each of the following dates: July 15, August 15, and September 16, 2024, with corresponding payable dates at the end of each respective month.

- The Fund has declared quarterly dividends of 3.25 cents per share for three consecutive months, indicating a steady return for investors.
- The Fund provides clarity on dividend dates and amounts, helping investors plan their finances.
- The dividends are expected to exceed the Fund’s net income and realized capital gains, suggesting that a portion will be a return of capital, which might not be favorable for long-term growth.

The Fund estimates that the above dividends are likely to exceed the Fund’s net income and net realized capital gains; therefore, a portion of these dividends is likely to result in a return of capital. A return of capital may occur, for example, when some or all of the money that you invested is paid back to you. A return of capital distribution does not necessarily reflect the Fund’s investment performance and should not be confused with “yield” or “income.” The actual amounts and sources of the amounts for tax reporting purposes will depend upon the Fund's investment experience during the remainder of the fiscal year and may be subject to changes based on tax regulations. The Fund or your broker 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.
