    In the event a quorum is not present at the Meeting, or in the
    event that a quorum is present at the Meeting but sufficient
    votes to approve any of the proposed items are not received, the
    chairman of the Meeting may propose one or more adjournments of
    such Meeting to permit further solicitation of proxies. If a
    quorum is present, a shareholder vote may be taken on one or
    more of the proposals in this Proxy Statement prior to such
    adjournment if sufficient votes have been received for approval
    and it is otherwise appropriate. If a quorum is present, the
    persons named as proxies will vote those proxies which they are
    entitled to vote &#147;FOR&#148; any proposal in favor of such
    adjournment and will vote those proxies required to be voted

    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 130&#160;days after the
    record date. At such adjourned Meeting, any business may be

    The Board consists of seven trustees, six of whom are not
    &#147;interested persons&#148; of the Fund (as defined in the
    Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the &#147;1940
    Act&#148;)). The Fund divides the Board into three classes, each
    class having a term of three years. Each year, the term of
    office of one class will expire. Anthony J. Colavita and
    Salvatore J. Zizza have each been nominated by the Board for
    election to serve for a three year term to expire at the
    Fund&#146;s 2014 Annual Meeting of Shareholders and until their
    successors are duly elected and qualified. Each of the Trustees
    of the Fund has served in that capacity since the April&#160;21,
    2004 organizational meeting of the Fund. All of the Trustees of
    the Fund are also directors or trustees of other investment
    companies for which Gabelli Funds, LLC (the &#147;Adviser&#148;)
    or its affiliates serve as investment adviser. The classes of
    Trustees are indicated below:

    The Board believes that each Trustee&#146;s experience,
    qualifications, attributes, or skills on an individual basis and
    in combination with those of other Trustees lead to the
    conclusion that each Trustee should serve in such capacity.
    Among the attributes or skills common to all Trustees are their
    ability to review critically and to evaluate, question, and
    discuss information provided to them, to interact effectively
    with the other Trustees, the Adviser, the
    <FONT style="white-space: nowrap">sub-administrator,</FONT>
    other service providers, counsel, and the Fund&#146;s

    <FONT style="white-space: nowrap">his/her</FONT>
    duties effectively has been attained in large part through the
    Trustee&#146;s business, consulting or public service positions

    Overall responsibility for general oversight of the Fund rests
    with the Board. The Board does not have a Chairman. The Board
    has appointed Mr.&#160;Conn as the lead independent Trustee. The
    lead independent Trustee presides over executive sessions of the
    Trustees and also serves between meetings of the Board as a
    liaison with service providers, officers, counsel, and other
    Trustees on a wide variety of matters including scheduling
    agenda items for Board meetings. Designation as such does not
    impose on the lead independent Trustee any obligations or
    standards greater than or different from other Trustees. The
    Board has established a Nominating Committee and an Audit
    Committee to assist the Board in the oversight of the management
    and affairs of the Fund. The Board also has a Proxy Voting
    Committee that exercises beneficial ownership responsibilities
    on behalf of the Fund in selected situations. From time to time,
    the Board establishes additional committees or informal working
    groups, such as pricing committees related to securities
    offerings by the Fund to address specific matters, or assigns
    one of its members to work with trustees or directors of other
    funds in the Gabelli/GAMCO Funds&#160;Complex on special
    committees or working groups that address complex-wide matters,
    such as the multi-fund <I>ad hoc</I> Compensation Committee
    relating to compensation of the Chief Compliance Officer for all
    the funds in the Fund&#160;Complex, and a separate multi-fund
    <I>ad hoc</I> Compensation Committee relating to compensation of
    certain officers of the closed-end funds in the
    Fund&#160;Complex.

    All of the Fund&#146;s Trustees other than Mr.&#160;Salibello
    are Independent Trustees, and the Board believes they are able
    to provide effective oversight of the Fund&#146;s service
    providers. In addition to providing feedback and direction
    during Board meetings, the Trustees meet regularly in executive
    session and chair all committees of the Board.

    The Fund&#146;s operations entail a variety of risks, including
    investment, administration, valuation, and a range of compliance
    matters. Although the Adviser, the
    <FONT style="white-space: nowrap">sub-administrator,</FONT>
    and the officers of the Fund are responsible for managing these
    risks on a
    <FONT style="white-space: nowrap">day-to-day</FONT>
    basis within the framework of their established risk management
    functions, the Board also addresses risk management of the Fund
    through its meetings and those of the committees and working
    groups. As part of its general oversight, the Board reviews with
    the Adviser at Board meetings the levels and types of option
    risks being undertaken by the Fund, and the Audit Committee
    discusses the Fund&#146;s risk management and controls with the
    independent registered public accounting firm engaged by the
    Fund. The Board reviews valuation policies and procedures and
    the valuations of specific illiquid securities. The Board also
    receives periodic reports from the Fund&#146;s Chief Compliance
    Officer regarding compliance matters relating to the Fund and
    its major service providers, including results of the
    implementation and testing of the Fund&#146;s and such
    providers&#146; compliance programs. The Board&#146;s oversight
    function is facilitated by management reporting processes
    designed to provide visibility to the Board regarding the
    identification, assessment, and management of critical risks,
    and the controls and policies and procedures used to mitigate
    those risks. The Board reviews its role in supervising the
    Fund&#146;s risk management from time to time and may make
    changes at its discretion at any time.

    The Board has determined that its leadership structure is
    appropriate for the Fund because it enables the Board to
    exercise informed and independent judgment over matters under
    its purview, allocates responsibility among committees in a
    manner that fosters effective oversight and allows the Board to
    devote appropriate resources to specific issues in a flexible
    manner as they arise. The Board periodically reviews its
    leadership structure as well as its overall structure,
    composition, and functioning, and may make changes at its
    discretion at any time.

    The Nominating Committee believes that the minimum

    individual demonstrate, by significant accomplishment in his or

    Board of Trustees oversight of the business and affairs of the
    Fund and have an impeccable record and reputation for honest and
    ethical conduct in both his or her professional and personal
    activities. In addition, the Nominating Committee examines a

    The Nomination Committee considers the overall composition of
    the Board, bearing in mind the benefits that may be derived from
    having members who have a variety of experiences,
    qualifications, attributes, or skills useful in overseeing a
    publicly traded, highly regulated entity such as the Fund. The
    Fund&#146;s governing documents state that a nominee for Trustee
    shall be at least twenty-one&#160;years of age and not older
    than such maximum age, if any, as the Trustees may determine and
    shall not be under legal disability. The Trustees have not
    determined a maximum age. The Nominating Committee does not have
    a formal policy regarding the consideration of diversity in
    identifying trustee candidates. For a discussion of experiences,
    qualifications, attributes, or skills supporting the
    appropriateness of each Trustee&#146;s service on the
    Fund&#146;s Board, see the biographical information of the
    Trustees above in the section entitled &#147;Information about

    The Fund&#146;s Audit Charter requires that the Audit Committee
    pre-approve all audit and non-audit services to be provided by
    the independent registered public accounting firm to the Fund,
    and all non-audit services to be provided by the independent
    registered public accounting firm to the Fund&#146;s Adviser and

    control with the Fund&#146;s Adviser (&#147;affiliates&#148;)
    that provide ongoing services to the Fund (a &#147;Covered
    Services Provider&#148;), if the engagement relates directly to
    the operations and financial reporting of the Fund. The Audit
    Committee may delegate its responsibility to pre-approve any
    such audit and permissible non-audit services to the Chairman of
    the Audit Committee, and the Chairman must report his
    decision(s) to the Audit Committee, at its next regularly
    scheduled meeting after the Chairman&#146;s pre-approval of such
    services. The Audit Committee may also establish detailed
    pre-approval policies and procedures for pre-approval of such
    services in accordance with applicable laws, including the
    delegation of some or all of the Audit Committee&#146;s
    pre-approval responsibilities to other persons (other than the
    Adviser or the Fund&#146;s officers). Pre-approval by the Audit
    Committee of any permissible non-audit services is not required
    so long as: (i)&#160;the aggregate amount of all such
    permissible non-audit services provided to the Fund, the
    Adviser, and any Covered Services Provider constitutes not more
    than 5% of the total amount of revenues paid by the Fund to its
    independent registered public accounting firm during the year in
    which the permissible non-audit services are provided;
    (ii)&#160;the permissible non-audit services were not recognized
    by the Fund at the time of the engagement to be non-audit
    services; and (iii)&#160;such services are promptly brought to
    the attention of the Audit Committee and approved by the Audit
    Committee or the Chairman prior to the completion of the audit.
    All of the audit, audit related, and tax services described
    above for which PricewaterhouseCoopers billed the Fund fees for
    the fiscal years ended December&#160;31, 2009 and
    December&#160;31, 2010 were pre-approved by the Audit Committee.
