Approval of Proposal 2 for the Annual Meeting will require the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares of preferred stock cast at a meeting at which a quorum is present to elect the preferred share Director, provided that if the number of nominees for preferred share Director, as determined by the Secretary of the Fund, exceeds the number of preferred share Directors to be elected, the preferred share Directors shall be elected by the vote of a plurality of the preferred shares represented in person or by proxy. With respect to Proposal 3 for the Annual Meeting, the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes of common stock and preferred stock voting together as a single class cast at a meeting at which a quorum is present is required. For purposes of the Annual Meeting Proposals, withheld votes and broker 'non-votes' will not be counted as votes cast and will have no effect on the result of the vote.</font></p><p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;"><font face="Times New Roman PS Std, Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" style="font-size:10pt;">Each Sub-Proposal of the Special Meeting Proposal must be approved by the affirmative vote of the lesser of (1) more than 50% of the outstanding voting securities of the Fund, or (2) 67% or more of the voting securities of the Fund present at the Special Meeting, if more than 50% of the outstanding voting securities of the Fund are represented at the Special Meeting in person or by proxy. Additionally, each Sub-Proposal must also receive the affirmative vote of the majority of the outstanding shares of preferred stock, voting separately as a single class. Each Sub-Proposal is contingent on each other Sub-Proposal's approval whereas the Fund will only implement Sub-Proposals if they all are approved. Therefore, if any one or more Sub-Proposal receives the required vote from all of the outstanding voting securities, but does not receive the required vote by the shares of preferred stock voting separately as a single class, or vice versa, the Sub-Proposal will not have been approved. Because each Sub-Proposal is contingent on the approval of all of the other Sub-Proposals, if any one Sub-Proposal does not receive both the required vote of all of the outstanding voting securities and the required vote of the preferred shares, then the Special Meeting Proposal will have been deemed to not have been approved. For purposes of determining the presence of a quorum for transacting business at the Special Meeting, abstentions and broker "non-votes" will be treated as shares that are present and will have the effect of votes "against" the Special Meeting Proposal. Accordingly, shareholders are urged to forward their voting instructions promptly.</font></p><p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;" align="left"><font face="Times New Roman PS Std, Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" style="font-size:10pt;"><b>Q.&nbsp;&nbsp;What happens if shareholders do not approve the Special Meeting Proposal?</b></font></p>

<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;"><font face="Times New Roman PS Std, Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" style="font-size:10pt;">The presence at the Meetings, in person or by proxy, of the shareholders entitled to cast a majority of all the votes entitled to be cast at the Meetings on any matter shall be necessary and sufficient to constitute a quorum for the transaction of business. For purposes of determining the presence of a quorum at the Meetings, withheld votes and broker 'non-votes' (that is, proxies from brokers or nominees indicating that such persons have not received instructions from the beneficial owner or other persons entitled to vote shares on a particular Proposal with respect to which the brokers or nominees do not have discretionary power) will be treated as shares that are present at the Meetings.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;"><font face="Times New Roman PS Std, Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" style="font-size:10pt;">With respect to Proposal 1 for the Annual Meeting, the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast of common stock and preferred stock voting together as a single class at a meeting at which a quorum is present is necessary for the election of a Director, provided that, if the number of nominees for Director, as determined by the Secretary of the Fund, exceeds the number of Directors to be elected, the Directors shall be elected by the vote of a plurality of the shares of common stock and preferred stock voting together as a single class represented in person or by proxy. Approval of Proposal 2 for the Annual Meeting will require the affirmative vote of a majority of the shares of preferred stock cast at a meeting at which a quorum is present to elect the preferred share Director, provided that if the number of nominees for preferred share Director, as determined by the Secretary of the Fund, exceeds the number of preferred share Directors to be elected, the preferred share Directors shall be elected by the vote of a plurality of the preferred shares represented in person or by proxy. With respect to Proposal 3 for the Annual Meeting, the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes of common stock and preferred stock voting together as a single class cast at a meeting at which a quorum is present is required. For purposes of the Annual Meeting Proposals, withheld votes and broker 'non-votes' will not be counted as votes cast and will have no effect on the result of the vote.</font></p><p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;"><font face="Times New Roman PS Std, Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" style="font-size:10pt;">Each Sub-Proposal of the Special Meeting Proposal must be approved by the affirmative vote of the lesser of (1) more than 50% of the outstanding voting securities of the Fund, or (2) 67% or more of the voting securities of the Fund present at the Special Meeting, if more than 50% of the outstanding voting securities of the Fund are represented at the Special Meeting in person or by proxy. Additionally, each Sub-Proposal must receive the affirmative vote of the majority of the outstanding shares of preferred stock, voting separately as a single class. Each Sub-Proposal is contingent on each other Sub-Proposal's approval whereas the Fund will only implement Sub-Proposals if they all are approved. Therefore, if any one or more Sub-Proposal receives the required vote from all of the outstanding voting securities, but does not receive the required vote by the shares of preferred stock voting separately as a single class, or vice versa, the Sub-Proposal will not have been approved. Because each Sub-Proposal is contingent on the approval of all of the other Sub-Proposals, if any one Sub-Proposal does not receive both the required vote of all of the outstanding voting securities and the required vote of the preferred shares, then the Special Meeting Proposal will have been deemed to not have been approved. For purposes of determining the presence of a quorum for transacting business at the Special Meeting, abstentions and broker "non-votes" will be treated as shares that are present and will have the effect of votes "against" the Special Meeting Proposal. Accordingly, shareholders are urged to forward their voting instructions promptly.</font></p><p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;"><font face="Times New Roman PS Std, Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" style="font-size:10pt;">The Board has adopted certain corporate governance policies for the Fund which include (i) a resignation policy which generally provides that an Independent Director, in an uncontested election, who does not receive a majority of votes "FOR" his or her election at a meeting of shareholders shall be deemed to have tendered his or her resignation, subject to the Board's acceptance or rejection of such resignation, which Board determination will be disclosed publicly to Fund shareholders; (ii) a policy requiring that after an Independent Director has served on the Board for three consecutive terms of three years following the later of (a) engagement of the existing investment manager of the Fund, (b) the Independent Director's election to the Board or (c) the Board's initial approval of the corporate governance policies, the Independent Director will be put forth for consideration by shareholders annually; </font></p></div>

<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;"><font face="Times New Roman PS Std, Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" style="font-size:10pt;">As stated above, the Board has adopted the Corporate Governance Policies for the Fund which include a policy requiring that after an Independent Director has served on the Board for three consecutive terms of three years following the later of (a) engagement of the existing Investment Manager of the Fund or (b) the Independent Director's election to the Board or (c) the Board's initial approval of the Corporate Governance Policies, the Independent Director will be put forth for consideration by shareholders annually. Under the Corporate Governance Policies, Independent Directors serving on the Boards at the time of the adoption of the Corporate Governance Policies will be submitted to shareholders for consideration of continuation as a director on an annual basis beginning at the first annual meeting following the end of each such Board member's three-year term in office after the end of such Independent Director's term during which the Corporate Governance Policies were approved. Neville J. Miles, an Independent Director, served out his term of office during which the Corporate Governance Policies were approved as well as a three-year term of office following that term. He therefore must be put forth for consideration by shareholders annually pursuant to the Corporate Governance Policies.</font></p></div>

<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 2pt 0pt;"><font face="Times New Roman PS Std, Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" style="font-size:10pt;"><b>ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ABOUT THE DIRECTORS</b></font></p>
<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;"><font face="Times New Roman PS Std, Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" style="font-size:10pt;">The Board believes that each Director's experience, qualifications, attributes and skills on an individual basis and in combination with those of the other Directors lead to the conclusion that the Directors possess the requisite experience, qualifications, attributes and skills to serve on the Board. The Board believes that the Directors' ability to review critically, evaluate, question and discuss information provided to them; to interact effectively with ASIAL, ASI Aus and AAML, other service providers, counsel and independent auditors; and to exercise effective business judgment in the performance of their duties, support this conclusion. The Board has also considered the contributions that each Director can make to the Board on which he serves and to the Fund. A Director's ability to perform his duties effectively may have been attained through the Director's executive, business, consulting, and/or legal positions; experience from service as a Director of the Fund and other funds/portfolios in the Aberdeen complex, other investment funds, public companies, or non-profit entities or other organizations; educational background or professional training or practice; and/or other life experiences. In this regard, the following specific experience, qualifications, attributes and/or skills apply as to each Director in addition to the information set forth in the table above: Mr. Gilbert, Chairman, Vice-Chairman and director roles within the Aberdeen complex, board experience with other public companies and investment trusts; Mr. Malone, legal background and public service leadership experience, board experience with other public and private companies, and executive and business consulting experience; Mr. Miles, financial services, investment management and executive experience and board experience with various Australian public and private companies; Mr. Potter, financial services, investment management and merchant banking experience, executive and consulting experience, and board experience with public companies and non-profit organizations; Mr. Sacks, accounting background (chartered accountant in Canada and South Africa), treasury experience in banking organizations, investment management and executive experience; and Mr. Sell, director and executive experience at an investment banking and trading firm and board experience with another closed-end fund outside of the Aberdeen complex.</font></p><p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;"><font face="Times New Roman PS Std, Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" style="font-size:10pt;">The Board believes that the significance of each Director's experience, qualifications, attributes or skills is an individual matter (meaning that experience important for one Director may not have the same value for another) and that these factors are best evaluated at the Board level, with no single Director, or particular factor, being indicative of Board effectiveness. In its periodic self-assessment of the effectiveness of the Board, the Board considers the complementary individual skills and experience of the individual Directors in the broader context of the Board's overall composition so that the Board, as a body, possesses the appropriate (and appropriately diverse) skills and experience to oversee the business of the Fund. References to the qualifications, attributes and skills of Directors are presented pursuant to disclosure requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"), do not constitute holding out a Board or any Director as having any special expertise or experience, and shall not impose any greater responsibility or liability on any such person or on a Board by reason thereof.</font></p><p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;" align="center"><font face="Times New Roman PS Std, Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" style="font-size:11pt;"><b>OFFICERS</b></font></p>

<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 2pt 0pt;"><font face="Times New Roman PS Std, Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" style="font-size:10pt;"><b>BOARD AND COMMITTEE STRUCTURE</b></font></p>
<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;"><font face="Times New Roman PS Std, Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" style="font-size:10pt;">The Board of Directors is currently composed of five Independent Directors and one Interested Director, Martin J. Gilbert. The Fund's bylaws provide that the Board of Directors to be elected by holders of a Fund's common stock shall be divided into three classes, as nearly equal in number as possible, each of which will serve for three years, with one class being elected each year. The Fund's Articles Supplementary for the Preferred Shares provide for the election of two Directors by holders of the Fund's preferred stock.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;"><font face="Times New Roman PS Std, Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" style="font-size:10pt;">The Board has appointed Mr. Malone, an Independent Director, as Chairman. The Chairman presides at meetings of the Directors, participates in the preparation of the agenda for meetings of the Board, and acts as a liaison between the Directors and management between Board meetings. Except for any duties specified herein, the designation of the Chairman does not impose on such Director any duties, obligations or liability that is greater than the duties, obligations or liability imposed on such person as a member of the Board, generally.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;"><font face="Times New Roman PS Std, Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" style="font-size:10pt;">The Board holds regular quarterly meetings each year to consider and address matters involving the Fund. The Board also may hold special meetings to address matters arising between regular meetings. The Independent Directors also meet outside the presence of management in executive session at least quarterly and have engaged separate, independent legal counsel to assist them in performing their oversight responsibilities.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;"><font face="Times New Roman PS Std, Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" style="font-size:10pt;">The Board has established a committee structure that includes an Audit and Valuation Committee, a Contract Review Committee, a Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee, a Cost Review Committee and a Leverage Committee (each discussed in more detail below) to assist the Board in the oversight and direction of the business affairs of the Fund, and from time to time may establish informal ad hoc committees or working groups to review and address the practices of the Fund with respect to specific matters. The Committee system facilitates the timely and efficient consideration of matters by the Directors, and facilitates effective oversight of compliance with legal and regulatory requirements and of the Fund's activities and associated risks. The standing Committees currently conduct an annual review of their charters, which includes a review of their responsibilities and operations. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee and the Board as a whole also conduct an annual self-assessment of the performance of the Board, including consideration of the effectiveness of the Board's Committee structure. Each Committee is comprised entirely of Independent Directors. Each Committee member is also "independent" within the meaning of the NYSE MKT listing standards. The Board reviews its structure regularly and believes that its leadership structure, including having a super-majority of Independent Directors, coupled with an Independent Director as Chairman, is appropriate because it allows the Board to exercise informed and independent judgment over the matters under its purview and it allocates areas of responsibility among the Committees and the full Board in a manner that enhances efficient and effective oversight.</font></p><p style="margin:0pt 0pt 2pt 0pt;"><font face="Times New Roman PS Std, Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" style="font-size:10pt;"><i>Audit and Valuation Committee</i></font></p>

The members of the Fund's Audit and Valuation Committee are Messrs. P. Gerald Malone, Neville J. Miles, Peter D. Sacks and Moritz Sell.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;"><font face="Times New Roman PS Std, Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" style="font-size:10pt;">The Board has adopted an Audit and Valuation Committee Charter for its Audit and Valuation Committee, the current copy of which is available on the Fund's website at <u>http://aberdeenfax.com</u>.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;"><font face="Times New Roman PS Std, Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" style="font-size:10pt;">The Fund's Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee recommends nominations for membership on the Board and reviews and evaluates the effectiveness of the Board in its role in governing the Fund and overseeing the management of the Fund. It evaluates candidates' qualifications for Board membership and, with respect to nominees for positions as Independent Directors, their independence from the Fund's Investment Manager, Investment Adviser and Sub-Adviser, and other principal service providers. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee generally meets annually to identify and evaluate nominees for director and makes its recommendations to its Board at the time of the Board's December meeting. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee also periodically reviews director compensation and will recommend any appropriate changes to the Boards as a group. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee also reviews and may make recommendations to its the Board relating to the effectiveness of the Board in carrying out its responsibilities in governing the Fund and overseeing the management of the Fund. The Board has adopted a Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee Charter, a copy of which is on the Fund's website at <u>http://aberdeenfax.com</u>. The members of the Fund's Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee are Messrs. P. Gerald Malone, Neville J. Miles, William J. Potter and Moritz Sell.</font></p><p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;"><font face="Times New Roman PS Std, Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" style="font-size:10pt;">The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee may take into account a wide variety of factors in considering prospective director candidates, including (but not limited to): (i) availability (including availability to attend to Board business on short notice) and commitment of a candidate to attend meetings and perform his or her responsibilities on the Board; (ii) relevant industry and related experience; (iii) educational background; (iv) reputation; (v) financial expertise; (vi) the candidate's ability, judgment and expertise; (vii) overall diversity of the Board's composition; and (viii) commitment to the representation of the interests of the Fund and its shareholders. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee also considers the effect of any relationships beyond those delineated in the 1940 Act that might impair independence, such as business, financial or family relationships with the Investment Manager, Investment Adviser or Sub-Adviser or their affiliates, as appropriate. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee will consider potential director candidates, if any, recommended by its Fund shareholders provided that the proposed candidates: (i) satisfy any minimum qualifications of the Fund for its directors, and (ii) are not "interested persons" of the Fund, as that term is defined in the 1940 Act; and (iii) are "independent" as defined in the listing standards of any exchange on which the Fund's shares are listed.</font></p><p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;"><font face="Times New Roman PS Std, Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" style="font-size:10pt;">While the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee has not adopted a particular definition of diversity or a particular policy with regard to the consideration of diversity in identifying candidates, when considering a candidate's and a Board's diversity, the Committees generally consider the manner in which each candidate's leadership, independence, interpersonal skills, financial acumen, integrity and professional ethics, educational and professional background, prior director or executive experience, industry knowledge, business judgment and specific experiences or expertise would complement or benefit the Board and, as a whole, contribute to the ability of the Board to oversee the Fund.

<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;"><font face="Times New Roman PS Std, Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" style="font-size:10pt;">The Fund is subject to a number of risks, including, among others, investment, compliance, operational and valuation risks. Risk oversight forms part of the Board's general oversight of the Fund and is addressed as part of various Board and Committee activities. The Board has adopted, and periodically reviews, policies and procedures designed to address these risks. Different processes, procedures and controls are employed with respect to different types of risks. Day-to-day risk management functions are subsumed within the responsibilities of ASIAL, who carries out the Fund's investment management and business affairs, and also by ASI Aus and AAML, and other service providers in connection with the services they provide to the Fund. Each of ASIAL, ASI Aus and AAML, as applicable, and other service providers have their own, independent interest in risk management, and their policies and methods of risk management will depend on their functions and business models. As part of its regular oversight of the Fund, the Board, directly and/or through the Committee, interacts with and reviews reports from, among others, ASIAL, ASI Aus and AAML, as applicable, and the Fund's other service providers (including the Fund's transfer agent), the Fund's Chief Compliance Officer, and the Fund's independent registered public accounting firm, legal counsel to the Fund, as appropriate, relating to the operations of the Fund. The Board also requires ASIAL to report to the Board on other matters relating to risk management on a regular and as-needed basis.

<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;"><font face="Times New Roman PS Std, Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" style="font-size:10pt;">During the Fund's fiscal year ended October 31, 2019, the Board held five regular meetings, the Audit and Valuation Committee held three meetings; the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee held one meeting; the Contract Review Committee held one meeting; the Cost Review Committee held one meeting; and the Leverage Committee held five meetings.

<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;"><font face="Times New Roman PS Std, Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" style="font-size:10pt;">Generally, in the event that the Fund's Directors are geographically close to the site of an annual meeting of shareholders at the time of such meeting, one or more of such Directors may attend the meeting. However, since a majority of the Fund's Directors reside outside of the United States, the Fund recognizes that it would be impractical for most Directors to attend such meeting and would create a significant expense for the Fund to require the Directors to attend such meeting. In light of the fact that the residences of most Directors are substantial distances from the location of the annual meeting of shareholders and that, historically, few shareholders have attended the annual meetings in person, the Fund has not established a policy with respect to Director attendance at annual meetings of shareholders.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;" align="center"><font face="Times New Roman PS Std, Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" style="font-size:11pt;"><b>SPECIAL MEETING PROPOSAL</b></font></p>
<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;"><font face="Times New Roman PS Std, Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" style="font-size:10pt;">As described below, the Board is recommending a proposal to amend several of the Fund's fundamental investment policies and to convert many of the fundamental investment policies to non-fundamental policies ("Special Meeting Proposal"). A "fundamental policy" is an investment objective, policy or restriction that can be changed only by a vote of both the Directors and the shareholders. Management believes, and the Board of Directors concurs, that it would be in the best interest of shareholders to make the proposed changes in order to provide the Fund with more investment flexibility. Such flexibility will allow the Fund to create a more diversified portfolio of securities and take advantage of the higher yielding opportunities of the Asia-Pacific market.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;"><font face="Times New Roman PS Std, Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" style="font-size:10pt;">The Board also approved several changes to certain of the Fund's investment policies that do not require approval by shareholders because these policies are "non-fundamental"; however, these changes will only be implemented if the Special Meeting Proposal is approved. These changes include: (i) eliminating the Fund's non-fundamental "80% Policy" (as defined and described below) given that the Fund will have a revised fundamental policy with respect to the investment of 80% of the Fund's net assets that will govern, and (ii) eliminations of or amendments to the Fund's other non-fundamental investment policies. The fundamental policy changes being voted on by shareholders under the Special Meeting Proposal, the 80% Policy elimination and other non-fundamental policy changes (collectively referred to as the "Fund Policy Changes") would be implemented within ten (10) business days of their approval by shareholders and the changes to the portfolio as part of the Fund Realignment implementation would occur over time thereafter (the "Fund Realignment"). There are no proposed changes to the investment objective of the Fund (which will remain a fundamental investment objective), to the Fund's name, to the investment team which oversees the management of the Fund's assets or to the Fund's fundamental investment restrictions. The Fund Policy Changes are described herein and each proposed amended policy is compared to its current version. Additionally, Annexure A to this Proxy Statement provides an overview of the Fund's investment objective, fundamental investment restrictions and proposed fundamental and non-fundamental investment policies and assuming the Special Meeting Proposal is approved and the Fund Policy Changes are implemented.</font></p><p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;"><font face="Times New Roman PS Std, Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" style="font-size:10pt;">The Special Meeting Proposal includes a number of changes, each of which is a separate "Sub-Proposal" that will be voted on separately by shareholders. Each Sub-Proposal is contingent on each other Sub-Proposal's approval. Therefore, the Fund will only implement the Special Meeting Proposal and the Fund Realignment if all of the Sub-Proposals receive the required vote and are approved.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;"><font face="Times New Roman PS Std, Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" style="font-size:10pt;">The Investment Manager expects that the Special Meeting Proposal would allow the Fund to diversify away from Australian debt investments and currency exposure in favor of higher yielding opportunities throughout the Asia-Pacific region. In the event that the Special Meeting Proposal is approved, it is currently anticipated that there would be a reduction in the exposure to Australian dollar denominated bonds in favor of a more diversified exposure in terms of country, currency and sector allocations. While it is expected that the average credit rating of the bonds in the underlying portfolio will be marginally lower following the Fund Realignment, the Investment Manager </font></p>

<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;"><font face="Times New Roman PS Std, Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" style="font-size:10pt;">A "fundamental policy" is an investment objective, policy or restriction that can be changed only by a vote of shareholders of the Fund. The Fund has several investment policies and investment restrictions that were adopted as a fundamental policies and, therefore, may be changed only by a vote of Fund shareholders. There are certain policies required to be adopted and maintained as fundamental investment restrictions pursuant to the 1940 Act. There is, however, no requirement that each of the Fund's investment policies (outside of those prescribed in Section 8 of the 1940 Act) be fundamental policies. In order to respond more quickly to market or regulatory changes, without the costs, expense and time delay associated with a special shareholder meeting, it is proposed that the Fund convert many of its fundamental investment policies to non-fundamental policies. If the Special Meeting Proposal is approved, the Directors will have the authority to approve any future change to the Fund's investment policies that are converted to non-fundamental policies. If the Special Meeting Proposal is approved, however, the Fund's fundamental investment restrictions, including the Fund's revised 80% Policy and the related definitions of "Asia-Pacific debt securities" and "Asia-Pacific Countries" would not be able to be changed without shareholder approval. Shareholders would receive notice of any future changes to current fundamental policies that are converted to non-fundamental policies by this shareholder vote. The Fund has no present intention to change its investment policies except as set forth in this Proxy Statement.</font></p></div>

<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;"><font face="Times New Roman PS Std, Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" style="font-size:10pt;">There are a few notable differences between the current and the proposed 80% policies. The first is that the current policy sets a maximum limit of "up to" 80% of the Fund's assets, while the proposed policy places a minimum floor of "at least" 80% of the Fund's assets. Second, the current policy uses "total" assets while the proposed policy uses "net". Since both the current and proposed policies include borrowings "for investment purposes" in the calculation of the 80% limits, the only difference between "total" assets in the current policy and "net" assets in the proposed would be that current policy would also include borrowings that are not for investment purposes while the proposed policy would not. Given the Fund would not typically borrow other than for investment purposes, this difference should not have a material impact. Third, the Fund's current policy is with respect to "Asian" countries, while the proposed policy is with respect to "Asia-Pacific" countries. The number of countries considered to be "Asian" for the Fund's current policy is a much smaller list than the countries currently considered to be "Asia-Pacific" per the United Nations Statistics Division list of countries included in the "Asia-Pacific" geographic region, which is the reference point for the Fund's proposed 80% policy definition of "Asia-Pacific".

<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;"><font face="Times New Roman PS Std, Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" style="font-size:10pt;">In the event that the Special Meeting Proposal is approved, it is currently anticipated that there would be a reduction in the exposure to Australian dollar denominated bonds in favor of a more diversified exposure in terms of country and currency allocations and a reduction in the average credit rating of the bonds in the Fund's portfolio. Because the Fund currently may invest in emerging markets and is permitted to invest in lower-rated securities, it is already subject to the related risks of doing so, including emerging markets risk, foreign currency exposure risk, and high-yield bonds and other lower-rated securities risk. However, approval of the Special Meeting Proposal and the Fund Realignment will increase the extent to which the Fund is subject to these risks, which are described in more detail, below.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;"><font face="Times New Roman PS Std, Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" style="font-size:10pt;"><i>Emerging Markets Risk</i></font><font face="Times New Roman PS Std, Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" style="font-size:10pt;">&#151;The risks of investing in foreign securities are increased in connection with investments in emerging markets. Emerging markets are countries generally considered to be relatively less developed or industrialized. Emerging markets often face economic problems that could subject a Fund to increased volatility or substantial declines in value. Deficiencies in regulatory oversight, market infrastructure, shareholder protections and company laws could expose a Fund to risks beyond those generally encountered in developed countries. In addition, profound social changes and business practices that depart from norms in developed countries' economies have hindered the orderly growth of emerging economies and their markets in the past and have caused instability. High levels of debt tend to make emerging economies heavily reliant on foreign capital and vulnerable to capital flight. Countries in emerging markets are also more likely to experience high levels of inflation, deflation or currency devaluation, which could also hurt their economies and securities markets. For these and other reasons, investments in emerging markets are often considered speculative. A Fund may also invest in frontier markets, which involve the same risks as emerging markets, but to a greater extent since they tend to be even smaller, less developed and less accessible than other emerging markets.</font></p><p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;"><font face="Times New Roman PS Std, Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" style="font-size:10pt;"><i>Foreign Currency Exposure Risk</i></font><font face="Times New Roman PS Std, Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" style="font-size:10pt;">&#151;The value of foreign currencies relative to the U.S. Dollar fluctuates in response to market, economic, political, regulatory, geopolitical or other conditions. A decline in the value of a foreign currency versus the U.S. Dollar reduces the value in U.S. Dollars of investments denominated in that foreign </font></p>

This risk may impact the Fund more greatly to the extent the Fund does not hedge its currency risk, or hedging techniques used by the Adviser are unsuccessful.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;"><font face="Times New Roman PS Std, Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" style="font-size:10pt;"><i>High-Yield Bonds and Other Lower-Rated Securities Risk</i></font><font face="Times New Roman PS Std, Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" style="font-size:10pt;">&#151;The Fund's investments in high-yield bonds (commonly referred to as "junk bonds") and other lower-rated securities will subject the Fund to substantial risk of loss. Investments in high-yield bonds are speculative and issuers of these securities are generally considered to be less financially secure and less able to repay interest and principal than issuers of investment-grade securities. Prices of high-yield bonds tend to be very volatile. These securities are less liquid than investment grade debt securities and may be difficult to price or sell, particularly in times of negative sentiment toward high-yield securities.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;" align="center"><font face="Times New Roman PS Std, Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" style="font-size:11pt;"><b>PROPOSED CHANGES TO FUND POLICIES THAT DO NOT REQUIRE APPROVAL BY SHAREHOLDERS</b></font></p>
<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;"><font face="Times New Roman PS Std, Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" style="font-size:10pt;">As part of the Fund Realignment, and contingent upon shareholder approval of the Special Meeting Proposal, the Board approved additional investment policy changes that do not require approval by shareholders. These changes include modifications of some of the Fund's non-fundamental investment policies. These non-fundamental policy changes are also intended to provide the Fund with the ability to create a more diversified portfolio of securities and to take advantage of the higher yielding opportunities of the Asia-Pacific market. If the Special Meeting Proposal is approved, all of the changes relating to the Fund Realignment as described in this Proxy Statement will be implemented concurrently.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 2pt 0pt;"><font face="Times New Roman PS Std, Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" style="font-size:10pt;"><b>Changes to the Fund's Non-Fundamental 80% Policy</b></font></p>
<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;"><font face="Times New Roman PS Std, Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" style="font-size:10pt;">The Fund currently has two policies with respect to investing 80% of its assets: (i) a fundamental policy setting a maximum of 80% investment threshold and (ii) a non-fundamental policy setting a minimum 80% investment threshold. The first policy, as noted in the above charts, is fundamental and relates to the Fund's investment of up to 80% of its total assets, plus the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes, in Asian debt securities. The second policy, which is non-fundamental, is for the Fund to normally invest at least 80% of its net assets, plus the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes, in Asian debt securities, Australian debt securities and New Zealand debt securities (the "80% Policy"). The Fund is proposing to replace both policies with a single, fundamental 80% Policy as noted in the chart above and repeated again in the chart below.</font></p></div>

<p style="margin:6pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;" align="center"><font face="Times New Roman PS Std, Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" style="font-size:11pt;"><b>IMPACT OF THE FUND REALIGNMENT</b></font></p>
<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 2pt 0pt;"><font face="Times New Roman PS Std, Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" style="font-size:10pt;"><b>Tax Consequences</b></font></p>
<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;"><font face="Times New Roman PS Std, Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" style="font-size:10pt;">It is anticipated that the Fund Policy Changes would be implemented within ten business days of shareholder approval of the Special Meeting Proposal, and the changes to the portfolio as part of the Fund Realignment would occur over time thereafter. Because the Fund realignment will involve turning over portions of the Fund's portfolio, there is expected to be a tax impact. The tax impact of the Fund Realignment will depend on the difference between the price at which portfolio securities are sold and the Fund's basis in such securities, offset by capital loss carry forwards. Any net capital gains realized will be distributed prior to the end of 2020, and such distribution will be taxable to tax-paying shareholders. The amount of net capital gains realized and distributed can fluctuate widely and will depend on, among other things, market conditions at the time of the sales. If the portfolio restructuring had occurred on October 31, 2019 and the distribution made on that date, the Fund would have generated approximately $(61,639,547) ($(0.25) per share), in net currency losses and $21,381,137 ($0.09 per share) in net capital gains. The amount noted in the preceding sentences are estimates based on current market conditions and there can be no guarantee that the dividends actually paid will not be materially higher or lower than the estimates.</font></p><p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;"><font face="Times New Roman PS Std, Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" style="font-size:10pt;">Pursuant to an exemptive order granted by the SEC on March 30, 2010, the Fund may distribute any long-term capital gains more frequently than the limits provided in Section 19(b) under the 1940 Act and Rule 19b-1 thereunder. Therefore, distributions paid by the Fund during the year may include net income, short-term capital gains, long-term capital gains and/or a return of capital. Net income dividends and short-term capital gain dividends, while generally taxable at ordinary income rates, may be eligible, to the extent of qualified dividend income earned by the Fund, to be taxed at a lower rate not to exceed the maximum rate applicable to your long-term capital gains. </font></p>

<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;"><font face="Times New Roman PS Std, Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" style="font-size:10pt;">Distributions made in any calendar year in excess of investment company taxable income and net capital gain are treated as taxable ordinary dividends to the extent of undistributed earnings and profits, and then as a return of capital that reduces the adjusted basis in the shares held. To the extent return of capital distributions exceed the adjusted basis in the shares held, capital gain is recognized with a holding period based on the period the shares have been held at the date such amount is received. Shareholders should not draw any conclusions about the Fund's investment performance from the terms of the distribution policy. The final determination of the source of all distributions will be made after year-end. The actual amounts and sources of the amounts for tax reporting purposes will depend upon the Fund's investment experience during the fiscal year and may be subject to change based on tax regulations. The Fund will send you a Form 1099-DIV for the calendar year that will tell you how to report distributions for federal income tax purposes.</font></p><p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;"><font face="Times New Roman PS Std, Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" style="font-size:10pt;">For U.S. federal income purposes, the Fund includes a separately identifiable unit called a Qualified Business Unit ("QBU") (see Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended ("IRC"), section 987). The Fund has operated with a QBU for U.S. federal income purposes since 1990. The home office of the Fund is designated as the United States and of the QBU is Australia with a functional currency of Australian dollar. The securities held within the Fund reside within either the QBU or the home office. Australian dollar denominated securities within the Australian QBU generate capital gain/loss (which are translated for U.S. federal income tax purposes into U.S. Dollars based on the weighted average exchange rate for the period) but not currency gain/loss. It is expected that the Fund would greatly reduce the proportion of Australian securities in its portfolio as part of the Fund Realignment, which would necessitate the closing of the Australian QBU in a reasonable timeframe.</font></p><p style="margin:0pt 0pt 2pt 0pt;"><font face="Times New Roman PS Std, Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" style="font-size:10pt;"><b>Transaction Costs</b></font></p>
<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;"><font face="Times New Roman PS Std, Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" style="font-size:10pt;">In connection with the Fund Realignment, the Fund expects to experience an increase in annual portfolio turnover of approximately 34.16%, which will result in higher than normal transaction costs to shareholders. The transaction costs are currently estimated to be approximately $4,409,079 ($0.02 per share) and will be borne by the Fund.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 2pt 0pt;"><font face="Times New Roman PS Std, Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" style="font-size:10pt;"><b>Impact on Fund Leverage Arrangements</b></font></p>
<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;"><font face="Times New Roman PS Std, Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" style="font-size:10pt;">The Fund has various agreements in place relating to loan facilities and its use of leverage which include a Credit Agreement for the revolving credit facility, Note Purchase Agreements for the Series A-E Senior Secured Notes (the "Senior Notes"). Under these agreements, amendments to fundamental investment policies are an event of default or breach of provisions, and therefore, the Fund has sought waivers and/or consents from the respective relevant parties in order to proceed with the Fund Policy Changes and Fund Realignment without impacting the Fund's current leverage arrangements.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;"><font face="Times New Roman PS Std, Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" style="font-size:10pt;">The Special Meeting Proposal must be approved by the affirmative vote of the lesser of (1) more than 50% of the outstanding voting securities of the Fund, or (2) 67% or more of the voting securities of the Fund present at the Special Meeting, if more than 50% of the outstanding voting securities of the Fund are represented at the Special Meeting in person or by proxy. Additionally, the Special Meeting Proposal must receive a vote of the majority of the outstanding shares of preferred stock, voting separately as a single class. Therefore, if the Special Meeting Proposal receives the required vote from all of the outstanding voting securities, but does not receive the required vote by the shares preferred stock voting separately as a single class, or vice versa, the Special Meeting Proposal will not have been approved.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;"><font face="Times New Roman PS Std, Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" style="font-size:10pt;">In order to obtain the necessary quorum at each Meeting, supplementary solicitation may be made by mail, telephone, telegraph or personal interview. Such solicitation may be conducted by, among others, officers, Directors and employees of the Fund, the Investment Manager, the Investment Adviser, the Sub-Adviser or the Fund's administrator. AST Fund Solutions, LLC ("AST") has been retained to assist in the solicitation of proxies and will receive an estimated fee of $6,500 and be reimbursed for its reasonable expenses.

As mentioned above, AST has been engaged to assist in the solicitation of proxies. As the date of the Meetings approaches, certain shareholders of the Fund may receive a call from a representative of AST, if the Fund has not yet received their vote. Authorization to permit AST to execute proxies may be obtained by telephonic instructions from shareholders of the Fund. Proxies that are obtained telephonically will be recorded in accordance with procedures that management of each of the Fund believes are reasonably designed to ensure that the identity of the shareholder casting the vote is accurately determined and that the voting instructions of the shareholder are accurately determined.</font></p><p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;"><font face="Times New Roman PS Std, Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" style="font-size:10pt;"><b>Beneficial Owners.</b></font><font face="Times New Roman PS Std, Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" style="font-size:10pt;"> Based upon filings made with the SEC, as of February 18, 2020, the following table shows certain information concerning persons who may be deemed beneficial owners of 5% or more of a class of shares of the Fund because they possessed or shared voting or investment power with respect to the Fund's shares:</font></p>

<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;"><font face="Times New Roman PS Std, Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" style="font-size:10pt;">The Fund's investment objective is to seek current income. The Fund may also achieve incidental capital appreciation. The Fund's investment objective may not be changed without the approval of the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of the Common Stock and the Preferred Stock, voting together as a single class, as well as by the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of the Fund's Preferred Stock voting as a separate class without regard to series. A majority vote, as defined by the 1940 Act, means the affirmative vote of the lesser of (i) 67% of the relevant shares represented at a meeting at which more than 50% of such shares are represented, or (ii) more than 50% of the relevant shares.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;"><font face="Times New Roman PS Std, Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" style="font-size:10pt;">To achieve its investment objective, the Fund normally invests at least 80% of its net assets, plus the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes in "Asia-Pacific debt securities," which include: (1) debt securities of Asia-Pacific Country issuers, including securities issued by Asia-Pacific Country governmental entities, as well as by banks, companies and other entities which are located in Asia-Pacific Countries, whether or not denominated in an Asia-Pacific Country currency; (2) debt securities of other issuers, denominated in, or linked to, the currency of an Asia-Pacific Country, including securities issued by supranational issuers, such as The World Bank and derivative debt securities that replicate, or substitute for, the currency of an Asia-Pacific Country; (3) debt securities issued by entities which, although not located in an Asia&#151;Pacific Country, derive at least 50% of their revenues from Asia-Pacific Countries or have at least 50% of their assets located in Asia-Pacific Countries; and (4) debt securities issued by a wholly-owned subsidiary of an entity located in an Asia-Pacific Country, provided that the debt securities are guaranteed by the parent entity located in the Asia-Pacific Country. With reference to items (3) and (4) above, Asia-Pacific debt securities may be denominated in an Asia-Pacific Country currency or U.S. dollars.</font></p><p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;"><font face="Times New Roman PS Std, Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" style="font-size:10pt;">"Asia-Pacific Countries" (each, an "Asia-Pacific Country") means countries included in "Asia" and "Oceania" in the United Nations ("UN") geographic regions used by the UN Statistics Division.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;"><font face="Times New Roman PS Std, Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" style="font-size:10pt;">The Fund may invest up to 10% of its total assets in the debt securities of any one country other than the U.S. or an Asia-Pacific Country ("Other Country" debt securities). The maximum exposure to any one Other Country currency (excluding U.S. dollars) is limited to 10% of the Fund's total assets.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;"><font face="Times New Roman PS Std, Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" style="font-size:10pt;">The maximum exposure to any one "Investment Grade Country" (other than the U.S.) is limited to 25% of the Fund's total assets and the maximum exposure to any one "Non-Investment Grade Country" is limited to 15% of total assets. Investment Grade Countries are those countries whose sovereign debt is rated not less than Baa3 by Moody's Investors Service, Inc. ("Moody's"), BBB- by S&amp;P Global Ratings ("S&amp;P") or BBB- by Fitch or comparably rated by another appropriate nationally or internationally recognized ratings agency. Non-Investment Grade Countries are those countries that are not Investment Grade Countries.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;"><font face="Times New Roman PS Std, Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" style="font-size:10pt;">The maximum currency exposure to any one Investment Grade Country currency (other than U.S. currency) is limited to 25% of the Fund's total assets, the maximum currency exposure to any one Non-Investment Grade Country currency is limited to 15% of the Fund's total assets.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;"><font face="Times New Roman PS Std, Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" style="font-size:10pt;">During periods when, in the Investment Manager's judgment, economic conditions warrant a temporary defensive investment policy, the Fund may temporarily invest up to 100% of its assets in U.S. cash and debt securities.</font></p>

<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;"><font face="Times New Roman PS Std, Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" style="font-size:10pt;">In order to accommodate investment in Asia-Pacific markets, the Fund may invest up to 35% of its total assets in Asia-Pacific Country debt securities rated below BBB- by S&amp;P, Baa3 by Moody's or BBB- by Fitch (also known as "junk bonds"), or judged by the Investment Manager to be below investment grade at the time of investment, provided that, with the approval of the Fund's Board of Directors, the ratings of other recognized rating services may be used. The Fund may invest up to 35% of its total assets in Asia-Pacific Country debt securities which may be deemed to be illiquid.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;"><font face="Times New Roman PS Std, Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" style="font-size:10pt;">The Fund may invest up to 10% of its total assets in securities rated by S&amp;P, Moody's, Fitch, or judged by the Investment Manager to be, below B- at the time of investment, provided that, with the approval of the Fund's Board of Directors, the ratings of other recognized ratings services may be used.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;"><font face="Times New Roman PS Std, Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" style="font-size:10pt;">The Fund may enter into repurchase agreements with banks and broker-dealers pursuant to which the Fund may acquire a security for a relatively short period (usually no more than a week) subject to the obligations of the seller to repurchase and the Fund to resell such security at a fixed time and price. The Fund will enter into repurchase agreements only with parties who meet creditworthiness standards approved by the Fund's Board of Directors, i.e., banks or broker-dealers which have been determined by the Fund's Investment Manager to present no serious risk of becoming involved in bankruptcy proceedings within the period contemplated by the repurchase transaction.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;"><font face="Times New Roman PS Std, Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" style="font-size:10pt;">A maximum of 20% of the Fund's total assets in Asia-Pacific Country debt securities can be denominated in any combination of Yen, Euro and British pound.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;"><font face="Times New Roman PS Std, Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" style="font-size:10pt;">The Fund may invest up to 10% of its total assets in secondary market bank loans, up to an additional 10% of its total assets in convertible securities and other hybrid securities, and up to an additional 10% of its total assets in asset-backed securities.</font></p>
<p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;"><font face="Times New Roman PS Std, Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" style="font-size:10pt;">The Fund currently utilizes and in the future expects to continue to utilize leverage through borrowings or through other transactions, such as reverse repurchase agreements, which have the effect of leverage. The Fund may also utilize leverage through the issuance of debt securities or preferred stock. The Fund may use leverage up to 331/3% of its total assets (including the amount obtained through leverage). The Fund generally will not utilize leverage if it anticipates that the Fund's leveraged capital structure would result in a lower return to shareholders than that obtainable over time with an unleveraged capital structure. Use of leverage creates an opportunity for increased income and capital appreciation for shareholders but, at the same time, creates special risks, and there can be no assurance that a leveraging strategy will be successful during any period in which it is employed. See "Use of Leverage."</font></p><p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;"><font face="Times New Roman PS Std, Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" style="font-size:10pt;">Consistent with its investment objective the Fund may invest in a broad array of financial instruments and securities in which the value of the instrument or security is "derived" from the performance of an underlying asset or a "benchmark" such as a security index, an interest rate or a foreign currency ("derivatives"). The Fund may use derivatives to manage currency, interest rate and credit risk and as a substitute for physical securities. The Fund may use interest rate swaps to hedge the Fund's liability with respect to its leverage. There is no limit on the amount of interest rate swap transactions that may be entered into by the Fund. Derivative debt securities that replicate, or substitute for, the currency of a particular country will be counted toward the limitations applicable with respect to issuers in that country. The Fund may invest in over-the-counter or exchange traded derivatives. The Fund may invest in derivatives up to the limits allowed under the 1940 Act. The following guidelines apply with respect to the Fund's derivative investments:</font></p><p style="margin:0pt 0pt 6pt 0pt;"><font face="Times New Roman PS Std, Times New Roman PS, Times New Roman, Times" style="font-size:10pt;">(a)&nbsp;&nbsp;The Fund will only use counterparty institutions rated A&#151;or better by recognized international rating agencies for all OTC derivatives transactions.</font></p>

The Fund intends to invest in a variety of debt securities, with differing issuers, maturities and interest rates, and to comply with the diversification and other requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, applicable to regulated investment companies so that the Fund will not be subject to U.S. federal income taxes on its net investment income.
