        <div style="text-align: center; font-weight: bold;">INTRODUCTION</div>
        <div>&#xa0;</div>
        <div style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 36pt;">This Proxy Statement is furnished in connection with the solicitation of proxies on behalf of the Board of Directors (&#x201c;Board&#x201d;) of Eagle Capital Growth Fund, Inc., a Maryland corporation (&#x201c;Fund&#x201d;),
          to be voted at the 2025 Annual Meeting of Shareholders (&#x201c;Meeting&#x201d;), to be held at the Milwaukee Bar Association, Board Conference Room, 747 North Broadway Street, Milwaukee, Wisconsin 53202, at 9:00 A.M. local time on Thursday, April 17, 2025.&#xa0;
          The approximate mailing date of this Proxy Statement is March 13, 2025.</div>
        <div>&#xa0;</div>
        <div style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 36pt;">All properly executed proxies received prior to the Meeting will be voted at the Meeting in accordance with the instructions marked thereon or otherwise as provided therein.&#xa0; Unless instructions
          to the contrary are marked, proxies will be voted &#x201c;FOR&#x201d; the election of the directors to&#xa0;the terms identified in this Proxy Statement (Proposal 1) and &#x201c;FOR&#x201d; the ratification of the independent registered public accountants (Proposal 2).&#xa0;&#xa0; Any
          shareholder giving a proxy has the power to revoke it at any time before it is exercised by filing a later dated proxy with us, by attending the Meeting and voting in person, or by notifying us of the revocation in writing to our Secretary at the
          Fund, 225 East Mason Street, Suite 802, Milwaukee, Wisconsin 53202-3657.</div>
        <div>&#xa0;</div>
        <div style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 36pt;">The Fund&#x2019;s Board has fixed the close of business on February 21, 2025, as the Record Date for the determination of shareholders entitled to notice of and to vote at the Meeting, and at any
          adjournment thereof.&#xa0; Shareholders on the Record Date will be entitled to one vote for each share held, with no shares having cumulative voting rights.&#xa0; As of the Record Date, the Fund had outstanding 3,967,836 shares of common stock, par value
          $0.001 per share (&#x201c;Common Stock&#x201d;).&#xa0; One-third of the outstanding shares of Common Stock, present or represented by proxy, constitutes a quorum.&#xa0; For purposes of a quorum, abstentions and broker non-votes are included.&#xa0; A quorum must exist to
          conduct business at the Meeting.&#xa0; A &#x201c;broker non-vote&#x201d; occurs when you own shares through a bank or broker in &#x201c;street&#x201d; name and you fail to provide your bank or broker with voting instructions and the bank or broker does not have the discretionary
          authority to vote your shares on a particular proposal.&#xa0; A broker non-vote may also occur if your broker fails to vote your shares for any reason.</div>
        <div>&#xa0;</div>
        <div style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 36pt;">Brokers, banks and other nominees are not permitted to vote on the election of directors without specific instructions from the beneficial owner.&#xa0; Therefore, if your shares are held through a
          broker, bank or other nominee, they will not be voted in the election of directors unless you affirmatively vote your shares in one of the ways described below.&#xa0; If you are a beneficial owner, your broker, bank or other nominee is permitted to
          vote your shares on the ratification of Cohen &amp; Company, Ltd as the Fund&#x2019;s independent registered public accountants even if the broker, bank or other nominee does not receive specific voting instructions from you.&#xa0;Under the NYSE&#x2019;s Proxy
          Rules, NYSE member organizations may vote discretionarily on all matters to be acted upon at this Meeting.&#xa0; This is based upon the assumption that no contest will arise as to any of the matters being considered and beneficial owners are advised
          as to this discretionary action.</div>
        <div>&#xa0;</div>
        <div style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 36pt;">The Fund will pay all the expenses of preparing, assembling, printing and mailing the material used in the solicitation of proxies by the Board.&#xa0; In addition to the solicitation of proxies by use
          of the mails, our officers may solicit proxies on behalf of the Board, by telephone, telegram or personal interview, and the Fund will bear these expenses.&#xa0; The Fund may arrange with brokerage houses and other custodians, nominees and fiduciaries
          to forward soliciting materials to the beneficial owners of Fund shares, and the Fund will pay or reimburse these expenses.</div>
        <div>&#xa0;</div>
        <div style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 36pt;">The Board knows of no business, other than as identified in Proposals 1 and 2 of the Notice of Meeting, which will be presented for consideration at the Meeting.&#xa0; If any other matter is properly
          presented, the persons named in the enclosed proxy intend to vote in their discretion.</div>

          regardless of the number of votes which for any reason, including abstentions, broker non-votes or withholding of authority to vote, are not cast for the election of such nominee.&#xa0; If any nominee becomes unavailable for election, an event not now

        <div>&#xa0;</div>
        <div>&#xa0;&#xa0;&#xa0;&#xa0;&#xa0;&#xa0;&#xa0;&#xa0;&#xa0;&#xa0;The Board held three (3) meetings during 2024.&#xa0; Each director attended at least 75% of the meetings of the Board and committees of the Board on which he or she served during 2024.&#xa0; The Fund has only one committee, the Audit
          Committee.&#xa0; The Fund has no nominating or compensation committees.&#xa0; The Board does not currently have a policy with regard to the attendance of directors at its annual meeting of shareholders.&#xa0; All of the directors attended the Fund&#x2019;s 2024 annual
          meeting of shareholders by telephone or in person.</div>
        <div>&#xa0;</div>
        <div style="font-weight: bold;">Shareholder Communications</div>
        <div>&#xa0;</div>
        <div style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 36pt;">Shareholders may send communications to the Board (to the attention of the Fund&#x2019;s Secretary) at the Fund&#x2019;s principal executive office.&#xa0; All shareholder communications shall be compiled by the
          Secretary and forwarded directly to the Board or the director as indicated in the letter.&#xa0; The Board reserves the right to revise this procedure in the event that it is abused or becomes unworkable.</div>
        <div>&#xa0;</div>
        <div style="font-weight: bold;">Nominating Committee</div>
        <div>&#xa0;</div>
        <div style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 36pt;">The Board does not have a standing nominating committee or committee performing similar functions as the Board has determined, given its relatively small size, to perform this function as a
          whole.&#xa0; The Board does not currently have a charter or other written policy with regard to the nomination process, or a formal policy with respect to the consideration of director candidates.&#xa0; The nominations of the directors standing for
          reelection at the Meeting were approved by the Board. Messrs. Allen, Bilkie, Hanrahan, Holth, Tyler and Zalenko and Ms. Nichols are independent directors under the rules of the NYSE American LLC.&#xa0;&#xa0; Mr. Luke E. Sims, who is the Fund&#x2019;s President
          and Chief Executive Officer, is an Interested Person and is not an independent director under the rules of the NYSE American LLC.&#xa0; Mr. David C. Sims, who is an officer of the Fund and a director of the Fund, is an Interested Person and is not an
          independent director under the rules of the NYSE American LLC.</div>
        <div>&#xa0;</div>
        <div style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 36pt;">Qualifications for consideration as a Board nominee may vary according to the particular areas of expertise being sought as a complement to the existing Board composition.&#xa0; In making its
          nominations, the Board considers relevant factors, including an individual&#x2019;s business experience, breadth of knowledge about issues and matters affecting the Fund, time availability for meetings and consultation regarding Fund matters, and other
          particular skills and experience.&#xa0; The Board desires candidates who possess the background, skills and expertise to make a significant contribution to the Board, the Fund and its shareholders.&#xa0; In the event of a need for a new or additional
          director, the Board will evaluate potential nominees by reviewing their qualifications, results of personal interviews and such other information as the Board may deem relevant.</div>
        <div>&#xa0;</div>
        <div style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 36pt;">The Fund does not employ an executive search, firm, or pay a fee to any other third party, to assist in identifying or evaluating potential qualified candidates for director.&#xa0; Since the Fund&#x2019;s
          2013 Annual Meeting, directors have been nominated and elected to staggered terms.&#xa0; Mr. Holth has served as a director since 1989.&#xa0;&#xa0; Mr. Luke E. Sims has served as a director since 2002.&#xa0; Mr. Bilkie has served as a director since 2006, and
          previously served as a Fund director from 1990 through 1996.&#xa0; Messrs. Hanrahan and Zalenko have each served as directors since 2008.&#xa0; Mr. Tyler has served as director since 2010.&#xa0; Mr. David C. Sims has served as a director since 2015.&#xa0; Ms. Anne
          M. Nichols and Mr. Jason W. Allen have served as directors since 2021.</div>
        <div>&#xa0;</div>
        <div style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 36pt;">The Board has not established special procedures for shareholders to submit director recommendations.&#xa0; If the Secretary were to receive a recommendation of a candidate from a Fund shareholder, he
          would submit it to the Board, and the Board would consider such recommendations in the same manner as all other candidates.</div>
        <div>&#xa0;</div>

        <div>&#xa0;</div>
        <div style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 36pt;">The Fund has an Audit Committee, established in accordance with the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, comprised of Messrs. Zalenko (Chairman), Hanrahan, Holth and Tyler.</div>
        <div>&#xa0;</div>
        <div style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 36pt;">The Audit Committee is responsible for the appointment, compensation, retention and oversight of the work of the Fund&#x2019;s independent accountants.&#xa0; Each of Messrs. Zalenko, Hanrahan, Holth and
          Tyler meets the requirements for independence set forth in the rules of the NYSE American LLC.&#xa0; The Fund&#x2019;s Board has adopted a written charter for the Audit Committee.&#xa0; The charter can be found on the Fund&#x2019;s website at <font style="text-decoration:underline">http://eaglecapitalgrowthfund.com</font>
          under &#x201c;Corporate Governance&#x201d;.&#xa0; The Audit Committee reviews and considered the Audit Committee charter at least annually.</div>

        </div>
        <div style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 36pt;">The Audit Committee met twice during 2024. The current members of the Audit Committee, Messrs. Zalenko, Hanrahan, Holth and Tyler meet the requirements for independence set forth in the rules of
          the NYSE American exchange.&#xa0; They are not Interested Persons of the Fund as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940.&#xa0; Under the Fund&#x2019;s By-laws, the Chairman is a non-executive, non-officer position.&#xa0; Each of Messrs. Zalenko, Hanrahan, Holth
          and Tyler has been determined to be an &#x201c;audit committee financial expert&#x201d; as such term is defined in SEC rules.&#xa0; A copy of the report of the Audit Committee is attached hereto as Exhibit A.</div>
        <div>&#xa0;</div>
        <div style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 36pt;">Investment funds generally face a number of risks, including investment risk, compliance risk, and valuation risk.&#xa0; The Fund, as a diversified regulated investment company, doesn&#x2019;t have any
          unique or unusual risks that it needs to manage.&#xa0; The Fund attempts to minimize risks.&#xa0; All of the Fund&#x2019;s cash and securities are held by its independent custodian.&#xa0; Moreover, the Fund&#x2019;s investments consist solely of marketable securities, and
          primarily large capitalization companies.&#xa0;&#xa0; The Board as a whole receives reports about the Fund&#x2019;s transactions and discusses such transactions with management and its investment advisor.&#xa0; At such meetings the Chief Compliance Officer reports to
          the Board about the Fund&#x2019;s compliance status.</div>
        <div>&#xa0;</div>
        <div style="font-weight: bold;">Investment Advisor</div>
        <div>&#xa0;</div>
        <div style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 36pt;">The Fund&#x2019;s investment advisor is Sims Capital Management LLC.&#xa0; Luke E. Sims, a director, President and Chief Executive Officer of the Fund, and David C. Sims, a director, Chief Financial Officer,
          Chief Compliance Officer, Treasurer and Secretary of the Fund, are the managers of the Advisor.&#xa0; See the earlier discussion in this Proxy Statement for further information about Luke E. Sims and David C. Sims, respectively.&#xa0; At the Fund&#x2019;s 2007
          annual meeting of shareholders, the shareholders approved the investment advisory agreement (&#x201c;Advisory Agreement&#x201d;) between the Fund and the Advisor.&#xa0; The Advisory Agreement has been mutually extended by the Fund and the Advisor through February
          2026.</div>
        <div>&#xa0;</div>
        <div style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 36pt;">The Advisor&#x2019;s address is the same as that of the principal executive office of the Fund.&#xa0; The Fund is the Advisor&#x2019;s only institutional advisory client.&#xa0; No other person provided any significant
          administrative or business affairs management services to the Fund during 2024.&#xa0; No continuing director or nominee for election as director, who is not an Interested Person, nor any of their immediate family members, is the record or beneficial
          owner of any securities in the Advisor or any of its affiliates.</div>
        <div>&#xa0;</div>
        <div style="text-indent: 36pt; font-weight: bold;">The Board of Directors recommends that shareholders vote &#x201c;FOR&#x201d; the election of the three (3) nominees, Mr. Mr. Luke E. Sims, Mr. Donald G. Tyler, and Mr. Neal F. Zalenko, for the terms identified
          above.</div>

        <div style="text-align: justify; text-indent: 36pt;">Cohen &amp; Company, Ltd (&#x201c;Cohen&#x201d;), independent registered public accountants, have been selected by the Audit Committee to examine the Fund&#x2019;s financial statements for the year ending December

          accountants.&#xa0; Under Maryland law, abstentions do not constitute a vote &#x201c;FOR&#x201d; or &#x201c;AGAINST&#x201d; a matter and will be disregarded in determining the votes cast.&#xa0; Broker non-votes with respect to shares entitled to vote will have no effect on the vote on
          this proposal.&#xa0; Representatives of Cohen are not expected to be available at the Meeting.&#xa0; If any Fund shareholder wishes to pose a question to Cohen &amp; Company, Ltd (&#x201c;Cohen&#x201d;), we recommend that you put it in writing and direct it to the
          Fund&#x2019;s Secretary at: <font style="text-decoration:underline">dave@simscapital.com</font>. We will see that you receive an appropriate written response.</div>
