responsibility for the Fund&#146;s management and operations provides the Board with insight into the Fund&#146;s business and activities and, with her access to appropriate administrative support, facilitates the efficient development of meeting

Independent Director and presides at all meetings of the Board. The Lead Independent Director, among other things, chairs executive sessions of the Independent Directors, serves as a spokesperson for the Independent Directors and serves as a liaison
between the Independent Directors and the Fund&#146;s management between Board meetings. The Independent Directors regularly meet outside the presence of management and are advised by independent legal counsel. The Board also has determined that its
leadership structure, as described above, is appropriate in light of the size and complexity of the Fund, the number of Independent Directors (who constitute a super-majority of the Board&#146;s membership) and the Board&#146;s general oversight

recommended by the stockholder as it deems appropriate. Stockholders who wish to recommend a nominee should send recommendations to the Fund&#146;s Secretary that include all information relating to such person that is required to be disclosed in
solicitations of proxies for the election of Directors. A recommendation must be accompanied by a written consent of the individual to stand for election if nominated by the Board of Directors and to serve if elected by the stockholders. The
