*Votes withheld are not included as a vote withheld is not a vote in law and is therefore not counted towards the proportion of votes 'for' or 'against' a resolution.
Discretionary votes received were voted in favour of a resolution and are counted in the proportion of votes 'for'.
The Board of the Fund notes the votes of more than 20% against resolutions 2, 3, 5, 6, 7 and 9. The Board is committed to continuing an open dialogue with the Company's shareholders. Where it is able to, the Board will continue to seek to engage with those shareholders who are understood to have voted against the resolutions to understand their views or any specific concerns. The Board will update shareholders on this and actions taken within six months.
