Management, LLC, Eleven Madison Avenue, 9th Floor, New York, New York 10010), voting again through the toll-free number or the Internet address listed in the Proxy or at the Meeting by executing a superseding Proxy or by submitting a notice of

by the presence at the virtual meeting or by proxy of the holders of one-third of the outstanding shares of the Fund entitled to vote at the Meeting. In the event that a quorum is not present at the Meeting, the holders of a majority of the shares
present in person or by proxy or the Chairman of the Meeting will have the power to adjourn the Meeting, without notice other than an announcement at the Meeting, until the requisite number of shares entitled to vote at the Meeting is present. In
the event that a quorum is present at the Meeting but sufficient votes to approve any proposal are not received, the Meeting may be adjourned by the Chairman of the Meeting or the shareholders may propose an adjournment of the Meeting to permit
further solicitation of Proxies. Any such adjournment by the shareholders will require the affirmative vote of a majority of the Fund&#146;s shares represented at the Meeting in person or by proxy, and the persons named as proxies will vote those
Proxies that they are entitled to vote &#147;FOR&#148; any proposal in favor of such adjournment and will vote those proxies required to be voted &#147;AGAINST&#148; any proposal against any such adjournment. Absent the establishment of a subsequent
record date and the giving of notice to the holders of record thereon, the adjourned Meeting must take place not more than 120 days after the record date. At such adjourned Meeting, any business may be transacted which might have been transacted at
the original Meeting. If a quorum is present, a shareholder vote may be taken on a proposal properly brought before the Meeting prior to any adjournment if sufficient votes have been received and it is otherwise appropriate. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">For purposes of determining the presence of a quorum for transacting business at the Meeting, abstentions and broker &#147;non-votes&#148;
(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 matter with respect to which the brokers or nominees do not
have discretionary power) will be treated as shares that are present at the Meeting but which have not been voted. Accordingly, shareholders are urged to forward their voting instructions promptly. </P>

&#147;plurality&#148; vote means the candidate who receives the largest number of votes cast (even if they receive less than a majority) will be elected as a Director. Since each candidate for election as a Director is running unopposed, each
candidate only needs one vote to be elected if there is a quorum present at the Meeting. Because abstentions and broker non-votes are not treated as shares voted, any abstentions and broker non-votes would have no impact on the election. </P>

<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">Overall responsibility for oversight of the Fund rests with the Board. The Fund has engaged Credit Suisse to manage the Fund on a day-to-day
basis. The Board is responsible for overseeing Credit Suisse and other service providers in the operations of the Fund in accordance with the provisions of the 1940 Act, applicable provisions of state and other laws and the Fund&#146;s charter. The
Board is currently composed of five members each of whom, other than Mr.&nbsp;Popp, is a Non-Interested Director. The Board meets at regularly scheduled quarterly meetings each year. In addition, the Board may hold special meetings or informal
conference calls to discuss specific matters that may arise or require action between regular meetings. As described below, the Board has established a Nominating Committee and an Audit Committee, and may establish ad hoc committees or working
groups from time to time, to assist the Board in fulfilling its oversight responsibilities. The Non-Interested Directors have also engaged independent legal counsel to assist them in performing their oversight responsibilities. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Board has appointed Steven N. Rappaport, a Non-Interested Director, to serve in the role of Chairman. The Chairman&#146;s role is to
preside at all meetings of the Board and to act as a liaison with Credit Suisse, counsel and other Directors generally between meetings. The Chairman serves as a key point person for dealings between management and the Directors. The Chairman may
also perform such other functions as may be delegated by the Board from time to time. The Board reviews matters related to its leadership structure annually. The Board has determined that the Board&#146;s leadership structure 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 committees of Directors and the full Board in a manner that enhances effective oversight. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">The Fund is subject to a number of risks, including investment, compliance, operational and valuation risks, among others. Risk oversight forms
part of the Board&#146;s general oversight of the Fund and is addressed as part of various Board and committee activities. Day-to-day risk management functions are subsumed within the responsibilities of Credit Suisse and other service providers
(depending on the nature of the risk), which carry out the Fund&#146;s investment management and business affairs. Credit Suisse and other service providers employ a variety of processes, procedures and controls to identify various events or

effects of such events or circumstances if they do occur. Each of Credit Suisse and other service providers has their own independent interest in risk management, and their policies and methods
of risk management will depend on their functions and business models. The Board recognizes that it is not possible to identify all of the risks that may affect the Fund or to develop processes and controls to eliminate or mitigate their occurrence
or effects. As part of its regular oversight of the Fund, the Board interacts with and reviews reports from, among others, Credit Suisse, the Fund&#146;s Chief Compliance Officer, the Fund&#146;s independent registered public accounting firm and
counsel, as appropriate, regarding risks faced by the Fund and applicable risk controls. The Board may, at any time and in its discretion, change the manner in which it conducts risk oversight. </P>
<P STYLE="margin-top:6pt; margin-bottom:0pt; text-indent:4%; font-size:10pt; font-family:Times New Roman">All of the Directors, except for John Popp, constitute the Fund&#146;s Audit Committee, which is composed of Directors who are not interested
persons of the Fund and who are independent (as such term is defined by the listing standards of the NYSE American, LLC, formerly known as NYSE MKT, LLC (the &#147;NYSE American&#148;)). The Audit Committee convened five times during the fiscal year

Nominating Committee held on February 21, 2023, the Nominating Committee (with the nominees abstaining from voting) determined to recommend to the full Board the nomination of each of Samantha Kappagoda and Steven N. Rappaport for a three-year term.
The Nominating Committee selects and recommends to the full Board candidates for nomination as Directors. The Board has adopted a Nominating Committee Charter (a copy of which was included as Appendix A to the Fund&#146;s proxy statement dated March
19, 2021). In nominating candidates, the Nominating Committee will take into consideration such factors as it deems appropriate. These factors may include judgment, skill, diversity, experience with investment companies and other organizations of
comparable purpose, complexity, size and subject to similar legal restrictions and oversight, the interplay of the candidate&#146;s experience with the experience of other Board members, and the extent to which the candidate would be a desirable
addition to the Board and any committees thereof. With respect to diversity, the Nominating Committee considers whether a candidate&#146;s background, experience and skills will contribute to the diversity of the Board. </P>
