2023, Credit Suisse Group AG (&ldquo;CS Group&rdquo;) merged with and into UBS Group AG, a multinational investment bank and financial
services company (&ldquo;UBS Group&rdquo;), with UBS Group remaining as the surviving company (the &ldquo;Merger&rdquo;). The closing
of the Merger was deemed to result in an assignment, thereby causing the Credit Suisse Funds&rsquo; investment advisory agreements with
Credit Suisse Asset Management, LLC (&ldquo;Credit Suisse&rdquo;), as well as the sub-advisory agreement between Credit Suisse and Credit
Suisse Asset Management Limited (&ldquo;Credit Suisse UK&rdquo;) with respect to Credit Suisse Strategic Income Fund, to automatically
terminate in accordance with applicable law.</FONT></P>

Suisse and Credit Suisse UK to continue to manage the Funds, shareholders of each Fund must approve a new investment advisory agreement

agreement between Credit Suisse and Credit Suisse UK. <B>It is important to note that each Fund&rsquo;s advisory fee rate under its new
agreement will remain the same, and no changes to the investment objective(s), principal investment strategies and policies, principal
risks, fundamental and non-fundamental investment policies, or portfolio managers (other than potential personnel changes outside of
Credit Suisse&rsquo;s control) of the Funds are currently contemplated as a result of the Merger.</B></FONT></P>

SOLICITATION CAMPAIGN - Will my clients get contacted?</B> Since the approval of each Fund&rsquo;s advisory agreement is extremely critical
to the ongoing management of the Funds, we anticipate the need to reach out to certain holders who have not voted in hopes to record
their vote. We are working with our solicitor to identify those holders; however, an outbound communications campaign is highly probable,
which will include follow-up proxy material and potentially phone calls. Therefore, your clients could receive a courtesy call from AST
Fund Solutions, LLC our proxy solicitor, reminding shareholders about the importance of voting and providing an option to vote at the
time of the call.</FONT></P>
