        <footnote id="F1">This Form 4 is filed by George W. Karpus (the &quot;Reporting Person&quot;). The Reporting Person previously may have been deemed to be a member of a Section 13(d) group that collectively owned in the aggregate more than 10% of the Issuer's outstanding shares of common stock. As of October 1, 2020, Mr. Karpus ceased to be a member of such Section 13(d) group and will cease to be a Reporting Person immediately.</footnote>
        <footnote id="F2">As of October 1, 2020, Mr. Karpus ceased to be a member of the Section 13(d) group referenced above and will cease to be a Reporting Person immediately following the filing of this Form 4. Karpus Management, Inc., d/b/a Karpus Investment Management (&quot;KMI&quot;), is a registered investment adviser under Section 203 of the Investment Advisers Act of 1940. KMI is controlled by City of London Investment Group plc (&quot;CLIG&quot;), which is listed on the London Stock Exchange. However, in accordance with SEC Release No. 34-39538 (January 12, 1998), effective informational barriers have been established between KMI and CLIG such that voting and investment power for the Issuer is exercised by KMI independently of CLIG, and accordingly, attribution of beneficial ownership is not required between KMI and CLIG. The accounts of Mr. Karpus are managed solely by KMI.</footnote>
