                                    IMPORTANT

             YOU CAN VOTE FOR CITY OF LONDON'S INDEPENDENT NOMINEES
                           ONLY ON THE GOLD PROXY CARD

      A vote to "withhold" in protest against the Board that is voted on the
Fund's white proxy card is not the same as a vote FOR the Independent Nominees
on the GOLD proxy card. In order for your vote to count FOR the Independent
Nominees, you must use the GOLD proxy card. If you send in a later-dated
"withhold" vote on the Fund's proxy card, it may revoke any vote you may have
previously sent in FOR the Independent Nominees on the GOLD proxy.

      In order to make certain that your vote counts FOR the Independent
Nominees, please make certain that you use the GOLD proxy and do not return any
later-dated white proxies to the Fund. Only your latest-dated proxy counts.

                 SEE THE REVERSE SIDE FOR VOTING YOUR GOLD PROXY
                       BY TOLL--FREE TELEPHONE OR INTERNET

                                   Thank you.

                       City of London Investment Group PLC
