As discussed in more detail in the enclosed Proxy Statement, at the Special Meeting, the shareholders of each Fund will be asked to approve a new Investment Management Agreement (the “Proposed Agreement”) between the

Fund and PIMCO, which currently serves as sub-adviser to each Fund. Upon shareholder approval and effectiveness of the Proposed Agreement with respect to a Fund, PIMCO will become the Fund’s investment manager and begin providing supervisory and administrative services along with the day-to-day portfolio management services it currently provides to the Fund as its sub-adviser. Upon the effectiveness of the Proposed Agreement for a Fund, the current investment management agreement between the Fund and Allianz Global Investors Fund Management LLC (“AGIFM”) and portfolio management agreement between AGIFM and PIMCO will terminate. If the Proposed Agreement is approved by shareholders with respect to a Fund, the Proposed Agreement will become effective for such Fund at a date and time mutually agreeable to the Fund, PIMCO and AGIFM in order to effect an efficient transition for the Fund and its shareholders.

Your vote is important

After considering the proposal, each Fund’s Board of Trustees/Directors unanimously voted to approve the Proposed Agreement for the Fund and to recommend that the shareholders of the Fund vote in favor of the proposal, as more fully described in the accompanying Proxy Statement.

Now it is your turn to review the proposal and vote. For more information about the issues requiring your vote, please refer to the accompanying Proxy Statement.

The Special Meeting will be held at the offices of Pacific Investment Management Company LLC (“PIMCO”), at 1633 Broadway, between West 50th and West 51st Streets, 42^nd Floor, New York, New York 10019, on June 9, 2014, at 9:30 A.M., Eastern Time.

The Notice of Joint Special Meeting of Shareholders (the “Notice”), this Proxy Statement and the enclosed proxy cards are first being sent to shareholders on or about [—], 2014.

The Special Meeting is scheduled as a joint meeting of the holders of all shares of each Fund, which consists of holders of common shares of beneficial interest (“Common Shares”) of each Fund (the “Common Shareholders”) and holders of preferred shares of beneficial interest (“Preferred Shares” and, together with the Common Shares, the “Shares”) of PTY, PCN, PHK, PCQ, PCK, PZC, PMF, PML, PMX, PNF, PNI and PYN (the “Preferred Shareholders” and, together with the Common Shareholders, the “Shareholders”).

I. PROPOSAL: APPROVAL OF THE PROPOSED INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT

Overview

The following questions and answers provide an overview of the Proposal on which you are being asked to vote. Please read the remainder of this Proxy Statement for additional information and further details about the Proposal and the Board’s and PIMCO’s rationale for recommending it to Shareholders. Your vote is important.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

Q: WHAT IS BEING PROPOSED?

A: The Board and PIMCO are recommending that PIMCO, the Funds’ current sub-adviser, replace its affiliate AGIFM as the investment manager of each Fund pursuant to a proposed new investment management agreement between the Fund and PIMCO (the “Proposed Agreement”). Under the Proposed Agreement, PIMCO would continue to provide the day-to-day portfolio management services it currently provides to each Fund as its sub-adviser and would also assume responsibility for the supervisory and administrative services currently provided by AGIFM to each Fund as its investment manager. The same investment professionals who are currently responsible for managing each Fund’s portfolio will continue to do so following the proposed transition, and PIMCO personnel will replace AGIFM personnel as Fund officers and in other roles to provide and/or oversee the administrative, accounting/financial reporting, compliance, legal, marketing, transfer agency, shareholder servicing and other services required for the daily operations of the Funds.

Q: HOW DOES THE BOARD RECOMMEND THAT I VOTE?

A: The Board recommends that you vote “FOR” the Proposal for your Fund, as described in this Proxy Statement.

Q: WHY ARE THE BOARD AND PIMCO RECOMMENDING THIS CHANGE IN THE FUNDS’ MANAGEMENT STRUCTURE AT THIS TIME?

A: AGIFM and PIMCO are affiliates that are part of the global asset management business of Allianz SE (ALV.XE) (“Allianz”); each is a direct or indirect subsidiary of Allianz Asset Management of America L.P.

4

(“AAM”). Effective January 1, 2012, Allianz reorganized its asset management business under AAM to give better visibility to its two main brands, PIMCO and Allianz Global Investors, and to better enable each asset management business to serve its clients worldwide. Allianz developed this new approach in an effort to move away from a family of boutiques model to a clear “two pillar” structure (i.e., with Allianz Global Investors and PIMCO as the two pillars). The reorganization was also designed to allow for clearer branding and product differentiation between PIMCO and Allianz Global Investors for intermediaries, clients and the investing public to allow for greater focus and exposure for the breadth and strength of products of both the PIMCO and Allianz Global Investors brands worldwide.

While AGIFM has served the Funds well for many years, the proposal to replace AGIFM with PIMCO as the Funds’ investment manager and assume responsibility for supervisory and administrative services for the Funds is a natural next step in the broader PIMCO/Allianz Global Investors reorganization effort initiated in 2012. Following the proposed transition, PIMCO will assume sole management responsibility for the Funds and AGIFM will continue to serve as manager/administrator for numerous other closed- and open-end funds managed within the Allianz Global Investors pillar of the Allianz asset management business.

As described below, the Board and PIMCO also believe that the Proposal will benefit Shareholders of each Fund.

Q: WHAT ARE THE EXPECTED BENEFITS TO SHAREHOLDERS OF MOVING TO THE NEW PIMCO-ONLY MANAGEMENT STRUCTURE?

A: The Board and PIMCO believe that the Funds’ Shareholders will benefit by moving to a PIMCO-only management structure. This is because PIMCO can offer the Funds an integrated set of high-quality investment management, administrative and distribution/aftermarket support services under a single platform, which we believe will allow for greater efficiencies and enhanced coordination among various investment management and administrative functions. The PIMCO fund administration group is well integrated with all critical functions related to the PIMCO funds business, including portfolio management, compliance, legal, accounting and tax, account management, marketing, shareholder communications/services and technology, and we believe that the Funds and Shareholders will benefit by having all these services provided “under one roof” by the highly experienced team at PIMCO.

5

Consistent with the rationale behind the broader Allianz Global Investors/PIMCO restructuring mentioned above, the proposed PIMCO-only management structure for the Funds aligns with the “two pillar” approach adopted by Allianz with respect to other PIMCO and Allianz Global Investors products globally. In this regard, we believe that the change will facilitate clearer branding and marketing of the Funds and will help to avoid potential confusion among intermediaries, analysts and investors as to whether the Funds are PIMCO and/or Allianz Global Investors products.

Q: WILL THE FEES AND EXPENSES CHARGED BY THE FUNDS TO SHAREHOLDERS CHANGE OR INCREASE AS A RESULT OF THE PROPOSAL?

A: In connection with the proposed management transition, the Board and PIMCO are proposing that the Funds’ adopt a so-called “unified” management fee structure under the Proposed Agreement, consistent with the fee structure in place for other U.S. registered funds and other products managed by PIMCO.

Currently, each Fund pays an investment management fee under its existing investment management agreement with AGIFM (each, a “Current Agreement,” and, together, the “Current Agreements”), which covers portfolio management services and certain administrative services provided by AGIFM. AGIFM, in turn, retains PIMCO as sub-adviser pursuant to a portfolio management agreement for each Fund between AGIFM and PIMCO (each, a “Portfolio Management Agreement,” and, together, the “Portfolio Management Agreements”) to provide the portfolio management services required under each Current Agreement, and AGIFM compensates PIMCO for such services out of the investment management fees it receives under the Fund’s Current Agreement. In addition to the management fee it pays under its Current Agreement, each Fund directly bears expenses for other administrative services and costs, including expenses associated with various third-party service providers, such as audit, custodial, legal, transfer agency, printing and other services required by the Funds.

In contrast, under the Proposed Agreement, each Fund would pay PIMCO a management fee that covers the portfolio management and administrative services covered under the Current Agreement, and PIMCO, at its expense, would be required to procure most other supervisory and administrative services required by the Funds that are currently paid for or incurred by the Funds directly outside of the Current Agreements (such fees and expenses, “Operating Expenses”). Operating Expenses include, but are not limited to, expenses of most third-party services providers (e.g., audit, custodial, legal, transfer agency, printing) and other expenses, such as those associated with

6

insurance, proxy solicitations and mailings for shareholder meetings, New York Stock Exchange listing and related fees, tax services, valuation services and other services required for the Funds’ daily operations.

The Board and PIMCO believe that the proposed new “unified” fee structure would be beneficial for Common Shareholders because it provides a unified management fee (including Operating Expenses) structure that is essentially fixed, making it more predictable under ordinary circumstances in comparison to the current fee and expense structure, under which the Funds’ Operating Expenses (including certain third-party fees and expenses) not covered by the Current Agreements can vary over time. The proposed unified fee structure also generally insulates the Funds and Common Shareholders from increases in applicable third-party and certain other expenses because PIMCO, rather than the Funds, would bear the risk of such increases (while at the same time PIMCO would benefit from related reductions in such expenses).

Because the proposed unified fee arrangement under the Proposed Agreement covers a greater amount of supervisory and administrative services and related costs than under the Current Agreements, the proposed contractual management fee rates under the Proposed Agreement for each Fund are higher than the management fee rates currently imposed under the corresponding Current Agreement (except for PDI and PCI, whose proposed management fee rates are the same under the Proposed Agreement as they are under the corresponding Current Agreements). However, in determining the proposed unified management fee rate to be paid to PIMCO by each Fund under the Proposed Agreement, PIMCO reviewed the Fund’s total expenses, including its current contractual management fee and other expenses currently borne by the Fund outside of the applicable Current Agreement, and the Fund’s leverage outstanding during calendar year 2013, and proposed a management fee rate that PIMCO estimates will result in the Fund’s total expenses paid by Common Shareholders being lower under the Proposed Agreement than under the corresponding Current Agreement (based on calendar year 2013 expenses). PIMCO therefore estimates that the proposed new arrangement will result in an overall savings to Common Shareholders of each Fund under ordinary circumstances. In developing the proposed fee structure for each Fund other than PDI and PCI, PIMCO, after discussions with the Board, determined a 20% reduction to the Fund’s actual Operating Expenses for calendar year 2013, converted that amount to basis points and rounded to the next lowest half or whole basis point in arriving at a unified fee rate for the Fund. With respect to PDI and PCI, PIMCO, after discussions with the Board, determined to propose a unified management fee rate under the Proposed Agreement at the same rate that is

7

currently charged under the Current Agreements for those Funds, such that PIMCO will bear all Operating Expenses for those Funds under the proposed new unified fee structure with no increase in the fee rate charged under the current non-unified fee structure. The proposed fee rates are designed to allow the Funds and their Common Shareholders to share up front in operational efficiencies PIMCO will attempt to realize with respect to the Funds’ Operating Expenses as a result of the proposed transition. The anticipated savings to each Fund are reflected in the “Operating Expenses” table below.

There is no assurance that a Fund’s total expenses paid under the Proposed Agreement will not exceed what the Fund would incur under its Current Agreement in certain circumstances, including if the Fund’s Operating Expenses (which are currently borne by the Fund outside of its Current Agreement and would be borne by PIMCO under the Proposed Agreement) decline in future periods. Also, the proposed unified fee rates under the Proposed Agreement would be charged for applicable Funds on assets attributable to preferred shares and/or certain other forms of leverage that may be obtained and utilized by a Fund. Under the Proposed Agreement, because a Fund’s outstanding leverage on which the fee is charged may vary, a Fund’s total expenses paid by Common Shareholders could be higher or lower under the Proposed Agreement than is estimated and could exceed what a Fund would incur under its Current Agreement. The Funds would be required to directly bear certain expenses outside of the Proposed Agreement which the Funds also directly bear under the Current Agreements, including fees and expenses of the Trustees/Directors who are not “interested persons” of the Funds (each, an “Independent Trustee/Director” and, collectively, the “Independent Trustees/Directors”) as defined in the 1940 Act and their counsel, interest expense and other expenses associated with incurring leverage, fees and expenses of any underlying funds or pooled vehicles in which a Fund invests, dividend and interest expense associated with short positions, other portfolio transaction expenses and extraordinary legal expenses, among others. These categories of expenses will be variable under both the Current and Proposed Agreements, and may result in higher or lower total expenses for a Fund in comparison to calendar year 2013 or other periods, but would not be expected to differ as between the current and proposed fee and expense structures. It is noted that Preferred Shareholders of applicable Funds do not bear any portion of a Fund’s management fees or other expenses and therefore should not be impacted economically by the proposed new fee and expense structure.

8

The tables below are intended to help you understand how the fees and expenses paid by the Funds would differ under the Current Agreements and the Proposed Agreement (i.e., giving effect to the unified fee structure). The “Contractual Management Fee Rates” table shows the contractual management fee rates under the Current Agreements and the proposed contractual management fee rates under the Proposed Agreement. The “Operating Expenses” table shows each Fund’s actual aggregate Operating Expenses (expressed in dollars) incurred during calendar year 2013 and compares, for each Fund, the actual aggregate Operating Expenses incurred by the Fund in calendar year 2013 plus its management fee paid to AGIFM under the Current Agreements in calendar year 2013 (i.e., essentially the same fees and expenses that are proposed to be covered by the unified fee rate under the Proposed Agreement) to estimates of the aggregate management fee (which includes the Fund’s Operating Expenses) that the Fund would have paid PIMCO under the Proposed Agreement if the Proposed Agreement and unified fee had been in place for calendar year 2013, taking into account the effects of the Fund’s leverage outstanding for calendar year 2013. The “Operating Expenses” table does not reflect fees and expenses paid by the Funds during calendar year 2013 that would not be covered under the unified fee rate, as discussed above. The “Effective Management Fees and Annual Expenses” table compares the effective management fee rates and total annual expense ratios for each Fund under the Current Agreements for calendar year 2013 and estimates under the Proposed Agreement for the same period, taking into account the effects of the Fund’s average leverage outstanding for calendar year 2013 (unless otherwise noted). As discussed below, the management fees with respect to certain Funds are, and would continue to be under the Proposed Agreement, calculated based on the Fund’s average daily “net assets,” which include assets attributable to preferred shares outstanding, while the management fees with respect to certain other Funds are, and under the Proposed Agreement would continue to be, calculated based on the average daily “total managed assets,” which include assets attributable to preferred shares and other types of leverage (such as borrowings, reverse repurchase agreements and/or dollar rolls). Additional information about the Current Agreements and Proposed Agreement may be found under “Description of the Current Agreements” and “Description of the Proposed Agreement,” respectively, in this Proxy Statement. Please see “Description of the Proposed Agreement—Annual Expenses andPro Forma Annual Expenses” for additional information regarding fees and expenses under the Current and Proposed Agreements.

The Board’s and PIMCO’s Rationale for the Proposal

Background. AGIFM and PIMCO are affiliates that are part of the global asset management business of Allianz; each is a direct or indirect subsidiary of AAM. Effective January 1, 2012, Allianz reorganized its asset management business under AAM to give better visibility to its two main brands, PIMCO and Allianz Global Investors, and to better enable each asset management business to

14

serve its clients worldwide. Among other significant changes resulting from this reorganization was the establishment of a U.S. registered broker-dealer subsidiary of PIMCO in the United States, known as PIMCO Investments LLC, which now distributes all funds managed and administered exclusively by PIMCO in the United States, a role it assumed from another Allianz affiliate that previously distributed both Allianz Global Investors funds and products and funds and products managed and administered exclusively by PIMCO. PIMCO has also assumed responsibility for distributing its funds and products outside of the United States. Allianz developed this new approach in an effort to move away from a family of boutiques model to a clear “two pillar” structure (i.e., with Allianz Global Investors and PIMCO as the two pillars). The reorganization was also designed to allow for clearer branding and product differentiation between PIMCO and Allianz Global Investors for intermediaries, clients and the investing public to allow for greater focus and exposure for the breadth and strength of products of both the PIMCO and Allianz Global Investors brands worldwide.

While AGIFM has served the Funds well for many years, the proposal to replace AGIFM with PIMCO as the Funds’ investment manager and assume responsibility for supervisory and administrative services for the Funds is a natural next step in the broader PIMCO/Allianz Global Investors reorganization effort initiated in 2012. Following the proposed transition, PIMCO will assume sole management responsibility for the Funds and AGIFM will continue to serve as manager/administrator for numerous other closed- and open-end funds managed within the Allianz Global Investors pillar of the Allianz asset management business.

Operational and Administrative Efficiencies. The Board and PIMCO believe that the Funds’ Shareholders will benefit by moving to a PIMCO-only management structure due, in part, to the operational and administrative efficiencies that are expected to result from the transition. In coming to this conclusion, the Board and PIMCO considered, among other things, the following factors:

• PIMCO can offer the Funds an integrated set of high-quality investment management, administrative and distribution/aftermarket support services under a single platform, which the Board and PIMCO believe will allow for greater efficiencies and enhanced coordination among various investment management and administrative functions.

• The fund administration group at PIMCO, comprised of approximately 140 professionals, currently provides administrative services for approximately $860 billion in assets under management globally,

15

including over 150 PIMCO open-end funds and exchange-traded funds (ETFs) which, like the Funds, are U.S. registered investment companies.

• PIMCO has substantial prior experience in the administration of U.S. registered closed-end funds (including RCS and PCM prior to 2009).

• The PIMCO fund administration group is well integrated with all critical functions related to the PIMCO funds business, including portfolio management, compliance, legal, accounting and tax, account management, marketing, shareholder communications/services and technology, and the Board and PIMCO believe that the Funds and Shareholders will benefit by having all such services provided “under one roof” by the highly experienced team at PIMCO.

• Consistent with the rationale behind the broader Allianz Global Investors/PIMCO restructuring mentioned above, the proposed PIMCO-only management structure for the Funds aligns with the “two pillar” approach adopted by Allianz with respect to other PIMCO and Allianz Global Investors products globally. In this regard, the Board and PIMCO believe that the change will facilitate clearer branding and marketing of the Funds and will help to avoid potential confusion among intermediaries, analysts and investors as to whether the Funds are PIMCO and/or Allianz Global Investors products.

• The same investment professionals who are currently responsible for managing each Fund’s portfolio will continue to do so following the proposed transition, and each Fund will continue to have the same investment objective(s) and policies following the transition.

Unified Fee. In addition to the expected benefits of the operational and administrative efficiencies described above, the Board and PIMCO also expect that the “unified” fee structure will provide benefits to the Common Shareholders, including, among others:

• The unified fee structure provides a management fee (including Operating Expenses) structure that is essentially fixed, making it more predictable under ordinary circumstances in comparison to the current fee and expense rate structure, under which the Funds’ Operating Expenses (including certain third-party fees and expenses) not covered by the Current Agreements can vary over time.

• The unified fee structure generally insulates the Funds and Common Shareholders from increases in applicable third-party and certain other expenses because PIMCO, rather than the Funds, would bear the risk of such increases (while at the same time PIMCO would benefit from related reductions in such expenses).

16

• The unified fee structure limits the potential risk to the Funds’ Common Shareholders of increased expenses resulting from the constantly evolving regulatory environment.

• In determining the proposed unified management fee rate to be paid to PIMCO by each Fund under the Proposed Agreement, PIMCO reviewed the Fund’s total expenses, including its current contractual management fee and other expenses currently borne by the Fund outside of the applicable Current Agreement, and the Fund’s leverage outstanding during calendar year 2013, and proposed a management fee rate that PIMCO estimates will result in the Fund’s total expenses paid by Common Shareholders being lower under the Proposed Agreement than under the corresponding Current Agreement. PIMCO therefore estimates that the proposed new arrangement will result in an overall savings to Common Shareholders of each Fund under ordinary circumstances. The proposed fee rates are designed to allow the Funds and their Common Shareholders to share up front in operational efficiencies PIMCO will attempt to realize with respect to the Funds’ Operating Expenses as a result of the proposed transition. As discussed above in the “Questions and Answers” section, there is no assurance that a Fund’s total expenses paid under the Proposed Agreement will not exceed what the Fund would incur under its Current Agreement in certain circumstances.

Description of the Current Agreements

AGIFM currently serves as the investment manager for each Fund pursuant to the applicable Current Agreement. The Board of each Fund (other than PDI and PCI), including a majority of the Independent Trustees/Directors of each Fund, most recently approved the continuation of each Fund’s Current Agreement on June 25, 2013. The Current Agreement for PDI was last approved by the Board on March 10-11, 2014, and the Current Agreement for PCI was last approved by the Board on December 12, 2012. The following chart provides the date of the Current Agreement with respect to each Fund and the date such agreement was last submitted to such Fund’s Shareholders for approval. The Current Agreement for each Fund (other than PCM and RCS) was last submitted to the Fund’s sole initial Shareholder in connection with such Fund’s organization. The Current Agreements for PCM and RCS were last submitted to Shareholders in connection with AGIFM becoming the investment manager of those Funds in 2008.

PIMCO formerly served as the investment manager to PCM and RCS pursuant to separate investment management agreements with those Funds. The investment management agreements between PIMCO and PCM and PIMCO and RCS were terminated on April 23, 2008 and June 10, 2008, respectively, in connection with AGIFM becoming the investment manager, and PIMCO becoming the sub-adviser, to those Funds. Between June 10, 2008 and August 27, 2008, AGIFM and PIMCO served as the investment manager and sub-adviser, respectively, to RCS pursuant to an interim investment management agreement and an interim portfolio management agreement, respectively.

Services. Under the terms of each Current Agreement, AGIFM, subject to the supervision of the Board, is obligated to furnish continuously an investment program for the applicable Fund, to make investment decisions on behalf of the applicable Fund, to place all orders for the purchase and sale of portfolio securities, and to provide administrative services reasonably necessary for the operation of the applicable Fund, including but not limited to furnishing office space and equipment, providing bookkeeping and clerical services (excluding determination of net asset value and shareholder accounting services) and paying all salaries, fees and expenses of the officers and Trustees/Directors of the applicable Fund who are affiliated with AGIFM. Each Current Agreement provides that AGIFM may alternatively, at its expense, select and contract with portfolio managers to perform investment management services for the

18

applicable Fund, in which case the obligation of AGIFM under a Current Agreement with respect to the investment management of a Fund is to determine and review with the portfolio manager the investment policies of the Fund. In such cases, the portfolio manager shall have the obligation of furnishing continuously an investment program, making investment decisions and placing trades for the Fund, adhering to applicable investment objectives, policies and restrictions, and placing all orders for the purchase and sale of portfolio securities and other investments for the Fund. AGIFM (and not the Fund) is responsible for compensating any such portfolio manager under the Current Agreements. AGIFM, with the Board’s approval, has entered into such agreements (i.e.,the Portfolio Management Agreements) with PIMCO with respect to each Fund, as discussed in more detail below.

Compensation. As compensation for AGIFM’s services rendered, and for the facilities furnished and for the expenses borne by AGIFM, each Fund pays AGIFM a management fee under the applicable Current Agreement. The management fees are accrued daily and paid monthly, at the annual rates set forth in the table below.

In addition to the investment management fees paid by each Fund under its Current Agreement as described above, the Fund currently directly bears expenses for other administrative services and costs outside of its Current Agreement, including expenses associated with various third-party service providers, such as audit, custodial, legal, transfer agency, printing and other services required by the Funds. The fees and expenses for these services are currently included in each Fund’s total expenses and are borne by the Common Shareholders of the Fund.

Termination/Amendment. Each Current Agreement took full force and effect as to the applicable Fund for an initial two-year period, and has been subject thereafter to annual approval in accordance with the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”) (i.e., approval by the Board of Trustees/Directors, or a majority of the Fund’s outstanding voting securities and, in either event, by the vote cast in person by a majority of the Independent Trustees/Directors. Each Current Agreement can also be terminated without penalty at any time (i) by the applicable Fund (either by vote of a majority of the Fund’s outstanding voting securities or by vote of a majority of Trustees/Directors); or (ii) by AGIFM, in each case on sixty (60) days’ written notice delivered to the other party. Additionally, each Current Agreement terminates automatically in the event of its assignment (as defined in the 1940 Act). A Current Agreement may not be materially amended unless such material amendment is approved at a meeting by the affirmative vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the applicable Fund, and by the vote, cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such approval, of a majority of the Independent Trustees/Directors of the applicable Fund.

20

If the Proposal is approved with respect to a Fund, the Fund’s Current Agreement will be terminated in connection with the effectiveness of the Fund’s Proposed Agreement.

Liability. Each Current Agreement provides that, in the absence of willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence on the part of AGIFM, or reckless disregard of its obligations and duties under the applicable Current Agreement, AGIFM, including its officers, directors and partners, will not be subject to any liability to the applicable Fund, or to any shareholder, officer, partner or Trustee/Director thereof, for any act or omission in the course of, or in connection with, rendering services under such Current Agreement.

Description of the Portfolio Management Agreements

PIMCO currently serves as the sub-adviser of each Fund pursuant to the applicable Portfolio Management Agreement between AGIFM and PIMCO. If the Proposal is approved with respect to a Fund, the Fund’s Portfolio Management Agreement will terminate in connection with the effectiveness of the Fund’s Proposed Agreement and the Fund will no longer have a sub-adviser. It is expected that, following the approval of the Proposed Agreement, the same PIMCO investment professionals who are currently responsible for managing each Fund’s portfolio will continue to do so in PIMCO’s capacity as investment manager under the Proposed Agreement. For additional information regarding the terms of the Portfolio Management Agreements, please refer toAppendix B.

Description of the Proposed Agreement

At an in-person meeting held on March 10-11, 2014, the Board of each Fund, including the Independent Trustees/Directors, unanimously approved, subject to the approval of the Shareholders of the applicable Fund, the Proposed Agreement between the Fund and PIMCO, a form of which is attached to this Proxy Statement asAppendix A. The description of the Proposed Agreement below is qualified in its entirety by reference to the actual terms of the form of agreement inAppendix A.

Services. Pursuant to the Proposed Agreement, PIMCO shall provide to each Fund investment guidance and policy direction in connection with the management of the Fund, including oral and written research, analysis, advice and statistical and economic data and information. Consistent with the investment objective(s), policies and restrictions applicable to each Fund, PIMCO will determine the securities and other assets to be purchased or sold or other techniques to be utilized (including, but not limited to, the incurrence of leverage and securities lending) by the Fund and will determine what portion of

21

the Fund shall be invested in securities or other assets, and what portion, if any, should be held uninvested. Under the Proposed Agreement, each Fund will have the benefit of the investment analysis and research, the review of current economic conditions and trends and the consideration of long-range investment policy generally available to investment advisory clients of PIMCO. If the Proposed Agreement is approved, PIMCO intends for the same teams of investment professionals to continue to manage each Fund’s investment portfolio and, as such, it is not expected that the day-to-day portfolio management services provided to the Funds will change. Unlike the Current Agreements, the Proposed Agreement does not contemplate that PIMCO will select and contract with third-party portfolio managers for the Funds.

In addition, under the terms of the Proposed Agreement, subject to the general supervision of the Board of Trustees/Directors, PIMCO shall provide or cause to be furnished all supervisory and administrative and other services reasonably necessary for the operation of each Fund, including but not limited to the following:

• the supervision and coordination of matters relating to the operation of each Fund, including any necessary coordination among the custodian, transfer agent, dividend disbursing agent, and recordkeeping agent (including pricing and valuation of the Fund), accountants, attorneys, auction agents and other parties performing services or operational functions for each Fund;

• the provision of adequate personnel, office space, communications facilities, and other facilities necessary for the effective supervision and administration of each Fund, as well as the services of a sufficient number of persons competent to perform such supervisory and administrative and clerical functions as are necessary for compliance with federal securities laws and other applicable laws;

• the maintenance of the books and records of each Fund;

• the preparation of all federal, state, local and foreign tax returns and reports for each Fund;

• the provision of administrative services to Shareholders for each Fund including the maintenance of a shareholder information telephone number, the provision of certain statistical information and performance of the Fund, an internet website (if requested), and maintenance of privacy protection systems and procedures;

• the preparation and filing of such registration statements and other documents with such authorities as may be required to register and maintain the listing of the Shares of each Fund;

22

• the taking of other such actions as may be required by applicable law (including establishment and maintenance of a compliance program for each Fund); and

• the preparation, filing and distribution of proxy materials, periodic reports to Shareholders and other regulatory filings.

In addition, under the Proposed Agreement, PIMCO will procure, at its own expense, the following services, and will bear expenses associated with the following for each Fund, which expenses are currently borne directly by the Funds:

• a custodian or custodians for the Funds to provide for the safekeeping of the Funds’ assets;

• a recordkeeping agent to maintain the portfolio accounting records for the Funds;

• a transfer agent for the Funds;

• a dividend disbursing agent or registrar for the Funds;

• all audits by each Fund’s independent public accountants (except fees to auditors associated with satisfying rating agency requirements for preferred shares or other securities issued by the Fund and other related requirements in a Fund’s organizational documents);

• valuation services;

• maintaining each Fund’s tax records;

• all costs and/or fees incident to meetings of each Fund’s shareholders, the preparation, printing and mailing of each Fund’s prospectuses, notices and proxy statements, press releases and reports to its Shareholders, the filing of reports with regulatory bodies, the maintenance of the Fund’s existence and qualification to do business, the expense of issuing, redeeming, registering and qualifying for sale, common shares with the federal and state securities authorities, and the expense of qualifying and listing Shares with any securities exchange or other trading system;

• legal services (except for extraordinary legal expenses);

• costs of printing certificates representing Shares of each Fund;

• each Fund’s pro rata portion of its fidelity bond and other insurance premiums; and

• association membership dues.

23

The Funds (and not PIMCO) will be responsible for certain fees and expenses that are not covered by the unified fee under the Proposed Agreement, which the Funds also directly bear under the Current Agreements. These include, for each Fund, fees and expenses, including travel expenses, and fees and expenses of legal counsel retained for their benefit, of Trustees/Directors who are not officers, employees, partners, shareholders or members of PIMCO or its subsidiaries or affiliates; the salaries and other compensation or expenses, including travel expenses, of the Fund’s executive officers and employees, if any, who are not officers, directors, shareholders, members, partners or employees of PIMCO or its subsidiaries or affiliates; taxes and governmental fees, if any, levied against the Fund; brokerage fees and commissions, and other portfolio transaction expenses incurred by or for the Fund; expenses of the Fund’s securities lending (if any), including any securities lending agent fees, as governed by a separate securities lending agreement; costs, including interest expenses, of borrowing money or engaging in other types of leverage financing; costs, including dividend and/or interest expenses and other costs associated with the Fund’s issuance, offering, redemption and maintenance of Preferred Shares, commercial paper or other senior securities for the purpose of incurring leverage; fees and expenses of any underlying funds or other pooled vehicles in which the Fund invests; dividend and interest expenses on short positions taken by the Fund; organizational and offering expenses of the Fund, including with respect to Share offerings following the Fund’s initial offering, and expenses associated with tender offers and other Share repurchases and redemptions; extraordinary legal costs; and expenses of the Fund which are capitalized in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles.

Compensation. Under the Proposed Agreement, as compensation for PIMCO’s services rendered, and for the facilities furnished and for the expenses borne by PIMCO, each Fund will pay PIMCO a management fee, accrued daily and paid monthly, at the annual rates set forth in the table below.

^1.  Fees calculated based on the Fund’s average daily net assets (including daily net assets attributable to any preferred shares of the Fund that may be outstanding).

^2. Fees calculated based on the Fund’s average daily “total managed assets,” which means the total assets of the Fund (including assets attributable to any reverse repurchase agreements, dollar rolls, borrowings and preferred shares that may be outstanding) minus accrued liabilities (other than liabilities representing reverse repurchase agreements, dollar rolls and borrowings).

^3.  Fees calculated based on the Fund’s average daily “total managed assets,” which means the total assets of the Fund (including assets attributable to any preferred shares and borrowings that may be outstanding) minus accrued liabilities (other than liabilities representing borrowings).

^4.  Fees calculated based on the Fund’s average daily “total managed assets,” which means the total assets of the Fund (including assets attributable to any reverse repurchase agreements, borrowings and preferred shares that may be outstanding) minus accrued liabilities (other than liabilities representing reverse repurchase agreements and borrowings).

As is the case with the Current Agreements, the Proposed Agreement provides that the assets on which the management fee will be charged include assets attributable to any Preferred Shares issued by a Fund and, with respect to certain Funds, other forms of leverage that may be outstanding (such as through reverse repurchase agreements, dollar rolls and/or borrowings). The types of leverage upon which the management fee will be charged for each Fund (which varies from Fund to Fund as noted in the footnotes to the table above) will be the same under the Proposed Agreement as it is for the Fund under its Current Agreement. However, the contractual management fee rates under the Proposed Agreement are higher for each Fund than under its Current Agreement (except for PDI and PCI, whose proposed management fee rates are the same under the Proposed Agreement as they are under the corresponding Current Agreements)

25

because the unified fee rates under the Proposed Agreement cover the Fund’s Operating Expenses (including certain third-party fees and expenses), which are currently paid for or incurred by the Funds directly outside of the Current Agreements and therefore are not included in the management fee rates under the Current Agreements. Therefore, in general, total expenses payable by Common Shareholders under the Proposed Agreement will vary more with increases and decreases in applicable leverage incurred by a Fund than under the Current Agreements (except with respect to PDI and PCI). As under the Current Agreements, because the fees to be received by PIMCO under the Proposed Agreement are based on assets attributable to any Preferred Shares, and, with respect to PCI, PDI, PGP, PKO and PCM, certain other forms of leverage (such as reverse repurchase agreements, dollar rolls and/or borrowings) that may be outstanding, PIMCO has a financial incentive for the Funds to issue or maintain Preferred Shares, or, in the case of PCI, PDI, PGP, PKO and PCM, use and/or increase other forms of leverage, which may result in a conflict of interest between PIMCO and the Common Shareholders of the applicable Fund, and this incentive will be greater with respect to each Fund (other than PDI and PCI) under the Proposed Agreement in comparison to the Current Agreements. However, as always, PIMCO will use leverage for the Funds solely as it determines to be in the best interests of the Funds from an investment perspective and without regard to the level of compensation its receives.

Comparison of Fees and Expenses Under the Current Agreements and the Proposed Agreement. The following table provides a comparison of the aggregate fees (expressed in dollars) paid to AGIFM under the CurrentAgreement for each Fund to the aggregate fees that PIMCO would have received under the Proposed Agreement for such Fund if the Proposed Agreement had been in place for the year ended December 31, 2013. The table also compares each Fund’s total expenses (expressed in dollars) incurred during the year ended December 31, 2013 with estimates of total expenses that the Fund would have incurred under the Proposed Agreement and unified fee structure during the same period.

^1. Assuming that a Fund was subject to the Proposed Agreement (rather than its Current Agreement) during the entire calendar year ended December 31, 2013. Thepro forma aggregate management fees also assume that the unified fee under the Proposed Agreement was imposed, as applicable, on assets attributable to preferred shares and/or other forms of leverage outstanding during the period pursuant to the terms of the Proposed Agreement for the particular Fund (as discussed above).

^2.  Assuming that a Fund was subject to the Proposed Agreement (rather than its Current Agreement) during the calendar year ended December 31, 2013 and incurred the same level of expenses that are not covered under the proposed unified fee (such as interest expense, fees and expenses of the Independent Trustees/Directors and their counsel and any extraordinary expenses) during the period. Thepro forma total expenses also assume that the unified fee under the Proposed Agreement was imposed, as applicable, on assets attributable to preferred shares and/or other forms of leverage outstanding during the period pursuant to the terms of the Proposed Agreement for the particular Fund (as discussed above). These expenses are only estimates. The actual expenses could vary and could exceed the amounts shown and/or the amounts the Funds would have incurred under the Current Agreements under certain circumstances. See the discussion

27

above in the “Questions and Answers” section for further information on why these estimates may vary.

^3. Annualized. PCI commenced operations on January 31, 2013.

^4. The total annual expenses in calendar year 2013 under the Current Agreements and estimatedpro forma total annual expenses under the Proposed Agreement reflect the interest expense on floating rate notes paid by the Fund during its most recently completed fiscal year.

The table below sets forth the total annual expenses incurred by each Fund during the year ended December 31, 2013 (expressed as a percentage of net assets attributable to Common Shares), broken out by category of service/expense, and estimates of thepro forma total annual expenses that each Fund would have incurred during the same period if the Proposed Agreement had been in place. The table illustrates that “Other Expenses” currently payable by the Funds outside of the Current Agreements would be lower under the Proposed Agreement because each Fund’s Operating Expenses, which are currently included in “Other Expenses” under the Current Agreements, would be paid by PIMCO out of the new unified management fee it receives from the Fund under the Proposed Agreement. Although the management fee rates for each Fund shown in the table below are higher under the Proposed Agreement than under the Fund’s Current Agreement (except for PDI and PCI, whose proposed management fee rates are the same under the Proposed Agreement as they are under the corresponding Current Agreement), in determining the proposed unified management fee rate to be paid to PIMCO by each Fund under the Proposed Agreement, PIMCO reviewed the Fund’s total expenses, including its current contractual management fee and other expenses currently borne by the Fund outside of the applicable Current Agreement, and the Fund’s leverage outstanding during calendar year 2013 (unless otherwise noted), and proposed a management fee rate that PIMCO estimates will result in the Fund’s total expenses paid by Common Shareholders being lower under the Proposed Agreement than under the corresponding Current Agreement, as indicated in the table below.

^1.  Except in the case of PCI as noted in footnote 9 below, reflects the Fund’s actual expenses during the calendar year ended December 31, 2013. The management fee rates and total expense ratios reflect that the management fee under the Current Agreement was imposed, as applicable, on assets attributable to preferred shares and/or other forms of leverage outstanding during the period pursuant to the terms of the Current Agreement for the particular Fund (as specified in the footnotes below).

30

^2.  Assumes that the Fund was subject to the Proposed Agreement (rather than its Current Agreement) during the calendar year ended December 31, 2013 and incurred the same level of expenses that are not covered under the proposed unified fee (such as interest expense, fees and expenses of the Independent Trustees/Directors and their counsel and any extraordinary expenses) during the period. Thepro forma management fee rates and total expense ratios also assume that the unified fee under the Proposed Agreement was imposed, as applicable, on assets attributable to preferred shares and/or other forms of leverage outstanding during the period pursuant to the terms of the Proposed Agreement for the particular Fund (as specified in the footnotes below). These expenses are only estimates. The actual expenses could vary and could exceed the amounts shown and/or the amounts the Funds would have incurred under the Current Agreements under certain circumstances. See the discussion above in the “Questions and Answers” section for further information on why these estimates may vary.

^3.  Fees calculated based on the Fund’s average daily net assets (including daily net assets attributable to any preferred shares of the Fund that may be outstanding).

^4.  Fees calculated based on the Fund’s average daily “total managed assets,” which means the total assets of the Fund (including assets attributable to any reverse repurchase agreements, dollar rolls, borrowings and preferred shares that may be outstanding) minus accrued liabilities (other than liabilities representing reverse repurchase agreements, dollar rolls and borrowings).

^5.  Fees calculated based on the Fund’s average daily “total managed assets,” which means the total assets of the Fund (including assets attributable to any preferred shares and borrowings that may be outstanding) minus accrued liabilities (other than liabilities representing borrowings).

^6.  Fees calculated based on the Fund’s average daily “total managed assets,” which means the total assets of the Fund (including assets attributable to any reverse repurchase agreements, borrowings and preferred shares that may be outstanding) minus accrued liabilities (other than liabilities representing reverse repurchase agreements and borrowings).

^7.  Assumes leverage (other than preferred shares) outstanding of a type and in an amount equal to the Fund’s average leverage (other than preferred shares) outstanding during the calendar year ended December 31, 2013 at the average annual interest rate cost paid by the Fund during the calendar year ended December 31, 2013. The Fund may use forms of leverage other than and/or in addition to the forms of leverage used during the calendar year ended December 31, 2013, which may be subject to different interest expenses than those estimated above. The actual amount of interest expense borne by the Fund will vary over time in accordance with the level of the Fund’s use of leverage and variations in market interest rates. Interest

31

expense is required to be treated as an expense of the Fund for accounting purposes. Any associated income or gains (or losses) realized from leverage obtained through such instruments is not reflected in the Annual Expenses table above, but would be reflected in the Fund’s performance results.

^8.  Represents the interest expense on floating rate notes paid by the Fund during its most recently completed fiscal year. Accounting rules require the Fund to treat interest paid by trusts issuing certain inverse floating rate investments held by the Fund as having been paid (indirectly) by the Fund. Because the Fund also recognizes a corresponding amount of interest income (also indirectly), the Fund’s net asset value, net investment income and total return are not affected by this accounting treatment. The interest expenses from inverse floating rate investments incurred during calendar year 2013 may have been, and in the future may be, higher or lower.

^9.  Annualized. PCI commenced operations on January 31, 2013.

See alsoAppendix C for an example of the expenses paid by a Shareholder for each Fund under the Current Agreements and the Proposed Agreement, assuming a $1,000 investment, a return of five percent per year and that each Fund’s total annual expenses and average assets attributable to leverage remain the same as during calendar year 2013.

It is noted that Preferred Shareholders of applicable Funds do not bear any portion of a Fund’s management fees or other expenses and therefore should not be impacted economically by the proposed new fee and expense structure.

Effective Date. If the Proposed Agreement is approved by a Fund’s Shareholders, it will take effect with respect to that Fund concurrent with the termination of the Current Agreement and Portfolio Management Agreement for the Fund. The actual effective date of the Proposed Agreement for a Fund will be at a date and time mutually agreeable to the Fund, PIMCO and AGIFM in order to effect an efficient transition for the Fund and its Shareholders.

Termination/Amendment. The Proposed Agreement, if approved by Shareholders, will remain in full force and effect as to each Fund, unless sooner terminated by such Fund, for an initialone-year period and shall continue thereafter on an annual basis with respect to each Fund provided that such continuance is specifically approved at least annually (i) by the vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities (as defined in the 1940 Act) of the Fund or by the Fund’s Board of Trustees/Directors; and (ii) by the vote, cast in person at a meeting called for such purpose, of a majority of the Fund’s Independent Trustees/Directors. It can also be terminated with respect to a Fund at any time, without the payment of any penalty, by a vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities (as defined in the 1940 Act) of the Fund or by avote of a majority of the Fund’s entire Boardof Trustees/Directors on sixty

32

(60) days’ written notice to PIMCO, or by PIMCO on sixty (60) days’ written notice to the Fund. Additionally, the Proposed Agreement will terminate automatically in the event of its assignment (as defined in the 1940 Act). The Proposed Agreement may not be materially amended with respect to a Fund or Funds without a vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities (as defined in the 1940 Act) of the pertinent Fund or Funds. The Proposed Agreement may be amended from time to time to add new Funds without a vote of the shareholders of any Fund.

Liability. The Proposed Agreement provides that neither PIMCO, nor its members, officers, directors or employees shall be subject to any liability for, or any damages, expenses or losses incurred in connection with, any act or omission or mistake in judgment connected with or arising out of any services rendered under the Proposed Agreement, except by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith, or gross negligence in performance of PIMCO’s duties, or by reason of reckless disregard of PIMCO’s obligations and duties under the Proposed Agreement.

Trustees/Directors’ Considerations Related to the Proposed Agreement

At a meeting of the Board on December 10, 2013, the Board received a preliminary presentation from PIMCO regarding the proposed transition and agreed that PIMCO should prepare materials regarding the Proposed Agreement and related arrangements for formal consideration at the Board’s next regularly scheduled meeting. On February 4, 2014, the Board held a special in-person meeting with members of PIMCO’s senior management and other PIMCO personnel proposed to serve as officers of the Funds to discuss the proposed transition. On February 25, 2014, the Independent Trustees/Directors met separately via conference call with their counsel to discuss materials provided by PIMCO regarding the Proposed Agreement and related arrangements, and representatives from PIMCO attended a portion of that meeting to respond to questions from the Independent Trustees/Directors and to field requests for supplemental information regarding the proposed arrangements. The Board then held an in-person meeting with management on March 10-11, 2014 to consider approval of the Proposed Agreement and related arrangements (the meetings of the Board discussed herein collectively referred to as the “Meetings”). Following careful consideration of the matter as described in more detail herein, the Board of each Fund, including all of the Independent Trustees/Directors, approved the Proposed Agreement for the Fund for an initial one-year term, subject to Shareholder approval. The information, material factors and conclusions that formed the basis for the Board’s approvals for each Fund are described below. As noted, the Independent Trustees/Directors were assisted in their evaluation of the Proposed Agreement by independent legal counsel, from whom they received separate legal advice and with whom they met separately from Fund management during the Meetings.

33

In connection with their deliberations regarding the approval of the Proposed Agreement, the Trustees/Directors, including the Independent Trustees/Directors, considered such information and factors as they believed, in light of the legal advice furnished to them and their own business judgment, to be relevant. As described below, the Trustees/Directors considered the nature, quality and extent of the various investment management, administrative and other services to be provided to each Fund by PIMCO under the Proposed Agreement.

In connection with the Meetings, the Trustees/Directors received and relied upon materials provided by PIMCO (or AGIFM, as applicable) which included, among other items: (i) information provided by Lipper Inc. (“Lipper”), an independent third party, on the total return investment performance (based on net assets) of the Funds for various time periods, the investment performance of a group of funds with investment classifications/objectives comparable to those of the Funds identified by Lipper (the “Lipper performance universe”) and, with respect to certain Funds, the performance of an applicable benchmark index, (ii) information provided by Lipper on the Funds’ management fees under the Current Agreements and other expenses and the management fees and other expenses of comparable funds identified by Lipper, (iii) information provided by PIMCO on the Funds’ proposed management fee rates and total expense ratios under the Proposed Agreement in comparison to data provided by Lipper on the management fees and total expense ratios of comparable Funds identified by Lipper, (iv) information on the aggregate management fees and total expenses paid by each Fund under its Current Agreement during calendar year 2013 and thepro forma aggregate management fees and total expenses that would have been paid by each Fund under the Proposed Agreement during calendar year 2013, (v) information regarding the investment performance and fees for other funds and accounts managed by PIMCO, if any, with similar investment strategies to those of the Funds, or information regarding the investment performance and fees for other funds and accounts managed by PIMCO with strategies that have similarities (but are not substantially similar) to those of the Funds, if any, (vi) the estimated profitability to AGIFM as investment manager to the Funds for the one-year period ended December 31, 2012, and to PIMCO as sub-adviser to the Funds for the one-year periods ended December 31, 2012 and 2013, (vii) estimates of what the profitability to PIMCO would have been under the Proposed Agreement for the one-year period ended December 31, 2013 and what the profitability to PIMCO under the Proposed Agreement is estimated to be for the calendar years ending December 31, 2014, 2015 and 2016, (viii) information provided by PIMCO on each Fund’s risk-adjusted returns, total returns and yield over various time periods, (ix) descriptions of various functions and services to be performed or procured by PIMCO for the Funds under the Proposed Agreement, such as portfolio management, compliance monitoring,

portfolio trading, custody, transfer agency, dividend disbursement, recordkeeping, tax, legal, audit, valuation and other administrative and shareholder services and (x) information regarding the overall organization of PIMCO, including information regarding senior management, portfolio managers and other personnel who will provide investment management, administrative and other services to the Funds under the Proposed Agreement. The Trustees noted that because PCI commenced operations on January 31, 2013, certain information provided to the Board with respect to PCI was provided on an annualized basis.

The Trustees’/Directors’ conclusions as to the approval of the Proposed Agreement for each Fund were based on a comprehensive consideration of all information provided to the Trustees/Directors and were not the result of any single factor. Some of the factors that figured particularly in the Trustees’/Directors’ deliberations are described below, although individual Trustees/Directors may have evaluated the information presented differently from one another, attributing different weights to various factors.

As part of their review, the Trustees/Directors examined PIMCO’s ability to provide high quality investment management and other services to the Funds. Among other information, the Trustees/Directors considered the investment philosophy and research and decision-making processes of PIMCO; the experience of key advisory personnel of PIMCO responsible for portfolio management of the Funds; the ability of PIMCO to attract and retain capable personnel; and the capability of the senior management and staff of PIMCO. In addition, the Trustees/Directors reviewed the quality of PIMCO’s services with respect to regulatory compliance and compliance with the investment policies of the Funds and conditions that might affect PIMCO’s ability to provide high quality services to the Funds in the future under the Proposed Agreement, including PIMCO’s financial condition and operational stability. The Trustees/Directors took into account their familiarity and experience with PIMCO as the sub-adviser and portfolio manager for each Fund to date, and noted that the same investment professionals who are currently responsible for managing each Fund’s portfolio will continue to do so following the proposed transition. They further noted that each Fund will continue to have the same investment objective(s) and policies following the transition.

The Trustees/Directors also considered the nature of certain supervisory and administrative services that PIMCO would be responsible for providing to the Funds under the Proposed Agreement. The Trustees/Directors noted PIMCO’s belief that a number of operational and administrative efficiencies are expected to result from the Proposed Agreement. The Trustees/Directors considered PIMCO’s representation that it could offer the Funds an integrated set of high-

35

quality investment management, administrative and distribution/aftermarket support services under a single platform, which PIMCO believes will allow for greater efficiencies and enhanced coordination among various investment management and administrative functions. The Trustees/Directors also took into account that the fund administration group at PIMCO, comprised of approximately 140 professionals, currently provides administrative services for approximately $860 billion in assets under management globally, including over 150 PIMCO open-end funds and ETFs which, like the Funds, are U.S. registered investment companies, and that PIMCO has substantial prior experience in the administration of U.S. registered closed-end funds, including RCS and PCM prior to 2009. The Trustees/Directors also considered PIMCO’s representation that the PIMCO fund administration group is well integrated with all critical functions related to the PIMCO funds business, including portfolio management, compliance, legal, accounting and tax, account management, marketing, shareholder communications/services and technology, and noted PIMCO’s belief that the Funds and Shareholders will benefit by having all such services provided “under one roof” by the highly experienced team at PIMCO. Moreover, the Trustees/Directors noted that the proposed PIMCO-only management structure for the Funds aligns with the “two pillar” approach adopted by Allianz with respect to other PIMCO and Allianz Global Investors products globally, and considered PIMCO’s view that the change will facilitate clearer branding and marketing of the Funds and will help to avoid potential confusion among intermediaries, analysts and investors as to whether the Funds are PIMCO and/or Allianz Global Investors products. Based on the foregoing, the Trustees/Directors concluded that PIMCO’s investment process, research capabilities and philosophy were well suited to each Fund given its investment objective and policies, and that PIMCO would be able to provide high quality supervisory and administrative services to the Funds and meet any reasonably foreseeable obligations under the Proposed Agreement.

In assessing the reasonableness of each Fund’s proposed unified management fee rate under the Proposed Agreement, the Trustees/Directors considered, among other information, (i) each Fund’s current and proposed contractual management fee rate, (ii) each Fund’s total expense ratio under its Current Agreement and under the Proposed Agreement calculated on average net assets and on average managed assets, taking into account the effects of the Fund’s average leverage outstanding for calendar year 2013, and (iii) the aggregate management fees and estimated total expenses paid by each Fund under its Current Agreement during calendar year 2013 and estimates of thepro forma aggregate management fees and total expenses that would have been paid by each Fund under the Proposed Agreement if it had been in place during calendar year 2013. In this regard, the Trustees/Directors noted that, although the proposed management fee rate to be paid to PIMCO by each Fund under the

36

Proposed Agreement is higher than the management fee rate imposed under the corresponding Current Agreement (except for PDI and PCI, whose proposed management fee rates are the same under the Proposed Agreement as they are under the corresponding Current Agreements), this is because the proposed unified fee arrangement under the Proposed Agreement covers the Fund’s Operating Expenses, which are currently borne directly by the Fund in addition to the management fee paid under the Current Agreement. In addition, the Trustees/Directors took into account PIMCO’s explanation that, in determining the proposed unified management fee rate to be paid to PIMCO by each Fund under the Proposed Agreement, PIMCO reviewed the Fund’s total expenses, including its current contractual management fee and other expenses currently borne by the Fund outside of the applicable Current Agreement, and the Fund’s leverage outstanding during calendar year 2013, and proposed a management fee rate that PIMCO estimated would result in the Fund’s total expenses paid by Common Shareholders being lower under the Proposed Agreement than under the corresponding Current Agreement (based on calendar year 2013 expenses). The Trustees/Directors noted that PIMCO estimated that the proposed new arrangement would result in an overall savings to Common Shareholders of each Fund under ordinary circumstances. The Trustees/Directors further considered PIMCO’s explanation that, in developing the proposed unified fee structure for each Fund other than PDI and PCI, PIMCO, after discussions with the Board, determined a 20% reduction to the Fund’s actual Operating Expenses for calendar year 2013, converted that amount to basis points and rounded to the next lowest half or whole basis point in arriving at a unified fee rate for the Fund. With respect to PDI and PCI, after discussions with the Trustees, PIMCO determined to propose a unified management fee rate under the Proposed Agreement at the same rate that is currently charged under the Current Agreements for those Funds, such that PIMCO will bear all Operating Expenses for those Funds under the proposed unified fee structure with no increase in the fee rate charged under the current non-unified fee structure. The Board considered PIMCO’s statement that the proposed unified fee rates are designed to allow the Funds and their Common Shareholders to share up front in operational efficiencies PIMCO will attempt to realize with respect to the Funds’ Operating Expenses as a result of the proposed transition.

The Trustees/Directors also took into account other expected benefits to shareholders of the proposed unified fee structure under the Proposed Agreement. In this regard, the Trustees/Directors noted PIMCO’s view that the proposed new unified fee structure would be beneficial for Common Shareholders because it provides a management fee (including Operating Expenses) structure that is essentially fixed as a percentage of managed assets, making it more predictable under ordinary circumstances in comparison to the current fee and expense structure, under which the Funds’ Operating Expenses

37

(including certain third-party fees and expenses) not covered by the Current Agreements can vary over time. The Trustees/Directors also considered that the proposed unified fee structure generally insulates the Funds and Common Shareholders from increases in applicable third-party and certain other expenses because PIMCO, rather than the Funds, would bear the risk of such increases (though the Trustees/Directors also noted that PIMCO would benefit from related reductions in such expenses).

The Trustees/Directors also considered the management fees charged by PIMCO to other funds and accounts with similar strategies to those of the Funds, if any, including open-end funds and separate accounts advised by PIMCO. With respect to certain Funds, the Trustees/Directors were advised that PIMCO does not manage any funds or accounts, including institutional or separate accounts, with investment strategies or return profiles similar to those of the Funds. However, in such cases, the Trustees/Directors considered the management fees charged by PIMCO to other funds and accounts with strategies that have similarities (but are not substantially similar) to those of the Funds, if any. The Trustees/Directors noted that the management fees proposed to be paid by the Funds are generally higher than the fees paid by such separate account clients. However, the Trustees/Directors were advised by PIMCO that it generally expects to provide broader and more extensive services to the Funds in comparison to separate accounts, and expects to incur additional expenses in connection with the more extensive regulatory regime to which the Funds are subject in comparison to separate accounts generally. The Trustees/Directors noted that the management fees proposed to be paid by the Funds are generally higher than the fees paid by any open-end funds offered for comparison, but were advised by PIMCO that there are additional portfolio management challenges in managing closed-end funds such as the Funds, such as those associated with the use of leverage and attempting to meet a regular dividend. With respect to PGP and PCM, the Trustees/Directors were advised that PIMCO does not manage any funds or accounts which have an investment strategy or return profile bearing any reasonable similarity to those Funds.

The Trustees/Directors also took into account that PTY, PCN, PHK, PCQ, PCK, PZC, PMF, PML, PMX, PNF, PNI and PYN have Preferred Shares outstanding, which increases the amount of management fees payable by those Funds under both the Current Agreements and the Proposed Agreement (because each of PTY’s, PCN’s, PHK’s, PCQ’s, PCK’s, PZC’s, PMF’s, PML’s, PMX’s, PNF’s, PNI’s and PYN’s fees are calculated, and under the Proposed Agreement would continue to be calculated, based on the Fund’s net assets, including any assets attributable to Preferred Shares outstanding). They also took into account that the use of other forms of leverage by PCI, PDI, PGP, PKO and PCM, such as through the use of reverse repurchase agreements, increases the amount of

38

management fees payable by those Funds under both the Current Agreements and the Proposed Agreement (because each of PCI’s, PDI’s, PGP’s, PKO’s and PCM’s fees are calculated, and under the Proposed Agreement would continue to be calculated, based on total managed assets, including assets attributable to certain forms of leverage). They also noted that RCS uses forms of leverage other than preferred shares, but that the use of such leverage by RCS does not increase the management fees payable by RCS (because RCS’s fees are calculated, and under the Proposed Agreement would continue to be calculated, based on the Fund’s net assets, including any preferred shares outstanding (though, as the Directors noted, RCS does not have any preferred shares outstanding)). In this regard, the Trustees/Directors took into account that, under both the Current Agreements and the Proposed Agreement, PIMCO has a financial incentive for the Funds to have Preferred Shares and/or other forms of leverage outstanding, which may create a conflict of interest between PIMCO, on the one hand, and the Funds’ Common Shareholders, on the other. The Trustees/Directors further noted that, for those Funds for which management fees are charged on assets attributable to leverage, this incentive will be greater under the Proposed Agreement in comparison to the Current Agreements (other than with respect to PDI and PCI) because the contractual management fee rates under the Proposed Agreement are higher for each Fund than under its Current Agreement (other than PDI and PCI), and the total fees paid to PIMCO under the Proposed Agreement will therefore vary more with increases and decreases in applicable leverage incurred by a Fund than under the Current Agreements. In this regard, the Trustees/Directors considered information provided by PIMCO and related presentations as to why each Fund’s use of leverage continues to be appropriate and in the best interests of the respective Fund under current market conditions. The Trustees/Directors also reviewed information provided by PIMCO demonstrating the estimated impact on each Fund’s management fees of increasing such Fund’s leverage to the maximum practical level that could be attained without further Board approval, calculated under both the Current Agreements and the Proposed Agreement, and noted that the differences in management fees paid to PIMCO between the Current Agreements and the Proposed Agreement under these circumstances were not significant. The Trustees/Directors also considered PIMCO’s representation that it will use leverage for the Funds solely as it determines to be in the best interests of the Funds from an investment perspective and without regard to the level of compensation PIMCO receives.

With respect to each Fund, the Trustees/Directors reviewed, among other information, comparative information showing the proposed unified fee rate of the Fund under the Proposed Agreement, calculated both on average net assets and on average managed assets, against its Lipper expense group and the Fund’s estimated total expense ratio (excluding interest expense) calculated on average

39

net assets and average managed assets under the Proposed Agreement against its Lipper expense group. It was noted that the total expense ratio comparisons reflect the effect of expense waivers/reimbursements (although none were proposed for the Funds). The Trustees/Directors noted that only leveraged closed-end funds were considered for inclusion in the expense groups presented for comparison with the Funds.

The Trustees/Directors noted that, for each Fund other than RCS, the proposed unified fee rate for the Fund was above the median management fee of the other funds in its expense group provided by Lipper, considered both calculated on average net assets and on average managed assets. With respect to RCS, the Directors noted that the proposed unified fee rate for the Fund was below the median management fee of other funds in its expense group provided by Lipper calculated on average net assets (though the Directors noted that, unlike the funds offered for comparison, RCS does not pay fees on assets attributable to the types of leverage that the Fund currently employs) but above the median management fee of the other funds in its expense group provided by Lipper calculated on average managed assets. However, in this regard, the Trustees/Directors took into account that each Fund’s proposed unified management fee rate covers substantially all of the Fund’s Operating Expenses and therefore would tend to be higher than the management fee rates of other funds in the expense groups provided by Lipper, which generally do not have a unified fee structure and bear Operating Expenses separately in addition to the management fee. The Trustees/Directors determined that a review of each Fund’s total expense ratio with the total expense ratios of peer funds would generally provide more meaningful comparisons than considering contractual management fee rates in isolation.

The Trustees/Directors also reviewed, among other information, comparative information showing the total return performance of Common Shares of each Fund (based on net asset value) against its Lipper performance universe for the one-year, three-year, five-year and ten-year periods (to the extent such Fund had been in existence) ended December 31, 2013. For PCI, the Trustees reviewed comparative information showing the performance of PCI’s Common Shares from the period from PCI’s inception (January 31, 2013) through December 31, 2013. In addition, with respect to PDI and PCI, the Trustees also reviewed, among other information, supplemental comparative information showing the performance of PDI and PCI against peer funds selected by PIMCO for the one-year period, the period since April 30, 2013 and the period since the inception of the applicable Fund (to the extent the applicable Fund or peer fund was in existence) to February 28, 2014. Fund-specific performance results for the Funds reviewed by the Trustees/Directors are discussed below.

The following summarizes comparative performance and fee and expense information considered for each Fund. The comparative performance information was prepared and provided by Lipper and, in the case of the supplemental comparative information for PDI and PCI described above, by PIMCO, and was not independently verified by the Trustees/Directors. Due to the passage of time, these performance results may differ from the performance results for more recent periods.

The comparative expense information reviewed by the Trustees/Directors was based on information by PIMCO with respect to the Funds and information provided by Lipper with respect to the other funds in the expense groups. With respect to PCI and PDI, PIMCO also provided comparative expense information against peer funds selected by PIMCO. The total expense ratio information for each Fund discussed below was estimated by PIMCO assuming that the Proposed Agreement had been in effect for the 2013 calendar year, taking into account the effects of the Fund’s average leverage outstanding for calendar year 2013. The fee and expense information was prepared and provided by PIMCO and Lipper and was not independently verified by the Trustees/Directors.

manager to the Funds for the one-year period ended December 31, 2012 (such estimate having been prepared by AGIFM); estimated profitability to PIMCO as sub-adviser to the Funds for the one-year periods ended December 31, 2012 and 2013;pro forma estimated profitability to PIMCO for the one-year period ended December 31, 2013 assuming the Proposed Agreement had been in effect; andpro forma estimated profitability to PIMCO under the Proposed Agreement for the calendar years ending December 31, 2014, 2015 and 2016. PIMCO provided profitability estimates under the Proposed Agreement reflecting a range of assumptions as to the allocation of internal expenses to its management of the Funds versus other types of products and services, and also estimated profitability both reflecting and not reflecting the amortization of the initial structuring fee payments and/or ongoing shareholder servicing and support payments PIMCO has made or will make to third parties with respect to the Funds. Based on the profitability analyses provided by PIMCO, the Trustees/Directors determined, taking into account the various assumptions made, that such profitability did not appear to be excessive.

The Trustees/Directors also took into account that, as closed-end Funds, the Funds do not currently intend to raise additional assets, so the assets of the Funds will grow (if at all) principally through the investment performance of each Fund. Therefore, the Trustees/Directors did not consider potential economies of scale as a principal factor in assessing the fee rates payable by each Fund under the Proposed Agreement, although they did take into account that the proposed unified fee rates reflect estimated reductions in Operating Expenses designed to allow the Funds to share up front in operational efficiencies PIMCO will attempt to realize as a result of the proposed transition.

Additionally, the Trustees/Directors considered so-called “fall-out benefits” to PIMCO, such as reputational value derived from serving as investment manager to the Funds and research, statistical and quotation services PIMCO may receive from broker-dealers executing the Funds’ portfolio transactions on an agency basis.

After reviewing these and other factors described herein, the Trustees/Directors concluded, with respect to each Fund, within the context of their overall conclusions regarding the Proposed Agreement and based upon the information provided and related representations made by PIMCO, that they were satisfied with PIMCO’s responses and efforts relating to the investment management and performance of the Fund. They also concluded that they were satisfied with PIMCO’s information and responses as to its resources and capabilities to serve as investment manager and administrator of each Fund under the Proposed Agreement following the transition. The Trustees/Directors also concluded that the fees payable by each Fund under the Proposed Agreement

49

represent reasonable compensation in light of the nature, extent and quality of services to be provided or procured by PIMCO under the Proposed Agreement. Based on their evaluation of factors that they deemed to be material, including those factors described above, the Trustees/Directors, including the Independent Trustees/Directors, unanimously concluded that the approval of the Proposed Agreement was in the interests of each Fund and its Shareholders, and determined to recommend the same for approval by Shareholders.

Information about the number of outstanding Shares, the number of Shares entitled to vote and significant Shareholders of the Funds is set forth inAppendix F.

59

III. VOTING INFORMATION

Record Date, Quorum and Methods of Tabulation

Shareholders of record at the close of business on April 9, 2014 are entitled to notice of, and to vote at, the Special Meeting. A quorum for each Fund at the applicable Special Meeting will consist of the presence in person or by proxy of thirty percent (30%) of the total Shares of the Fund entitled to vote at such Special Meeting (except for RCS and PCM, for which a majority of the shares of stock entitled to vote at the Special Meeting will constitute a quorum).

Each whole Share shall be entitled to one vote as to any matter on which it is entitled to vote and each fractional Share shall be entitled to a proportionate fractional vote. Shares represented by timely, duly executed proxies will be voted as you instruct.If no specification is made, Shares will be voted in accordance with the recommendation of the Trustees/Directors.Proxies may be revoked at any time before they are exercised by timely delivering a signed, written letter of revocation to the Secretary of the applicable Fund, by properly executing and timely submitting a later-dated proxy vote, or by attending the Special Meeting and voting in person and affirmatively requesting at the Special Meeting that a prior proxy be revoked. Valid photo identification and proof of ownership of Shares may be required to attend the Special Meeting in person.

Votes cast by proxy or in person at the Special Meeting will be counted by persons appointed by the Funds as tellers/inspectors of elections both for the purpose of determining the presence of a quorum and for calculating the votes cast on the issues before the Special Meeting. For purposes of determining the presence of a quorum for each Fund, the tellers will include the total number of Shares present at the Special Meeting in person or by proxy, including Shares represented by proxies that reflect abstentions.Abstentions will have the effect of a vote AGAINST the Proposal. As a result, you are urged to complete and send in your proxy or voting instructions so your vote can be counted.

Broker-dealer firms holding Shares in “street name” for the benefit of their customers and clients will request the instructions of such customers and clients on how to vote their shares on the Proposal. Under current interpretations of the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) rules, broker-dealers that are members of the NYSE and that have not received instructions from a customer may not vote such customer’s Shares on the Proposal. Proxies that reflect abstentions or broker “non-votes” (that is, shares held by brokers or nominees as to which (a) instructions have not been received from the beneficial owner or other persons entitled to vote, and (b) the brokers or nominees do not have discretionary voting power on a particular matter) will be counted as shares that are present and entitled to vote for purposes of determining the presence of a

60

quorum.Broker non-votes with respect to the Proposal will have the effect of a vote AGAINST the Proposal. As a result, you are urged to complete and send in your proxy or voting instructions so your vote can be counted.

Broker-dealers who are not members of the NYSE may be subject to other rules, which may or may not permit them to vote your Shares without instruction. Therefore, if you beneficially own Shares that are held in “street name” through a broker-dealer and if you have not given or do not give voting instructions for your Shares, your Shares may not be voted at all or may be voted in a manner that you may not intend.

Preferred Shares held in “street name” as to which voting instructions have not been received from the beneficial owners or persons entitled to vote as of one business day before the Special Meeting, or, if adjourned, one business day before the day to which a Meeting is adjourned for a Fund, and that would otherwise not be counted, may, pursuant to NYSE Rule 452, be voted by the broker in the same proportion as the votes cast by all Preferred Shareholders of such Fund who have voted on that item. Rule 452 permits proportionate voting of Preferred Shares if, among other things, (i) holders of Common Shares approve the Proposal, (ii) a minimum of 30% of the Preferred Shares outstanding has been voted by the holders of such Preferred Shares, and (iii) less than 10% of the Preferred Shares outstanding has been voted by the holders of such Preferred Shares against the Proposal.

Adjournments

With respect to each Fund, in the event that a quorum is not present for purposes of acting on the Proposal, or, even if a quorum is present, if sufficient votes in favor of the Proposal are not received by the time of the Special Meeting, the persons named as proxies may propose one or more adjournments of the Special Meeting to permit further solicitation of proxies for such Fund. Any such adjournment will require the affirmative vote of a plurality of the Shares of the relevant Fund entitled to vote thereon present in person or represented by proxy at the Special Meeting (except for RCS and PCM, for which the affirmative vote of a majority of the Shares of the relevant Fund entitled to vote thereon present in person or represented by proxy at the Special Meeting is required) to be adjourned. The persons named as proxies will vote in favor of such adjournment those proxies which they are entitled to vote in favor of any proposal that has not then been adopted. They will vote against such adjournment those proxies required to be voted against each proposal that has not then been adopted and will not vote any proxies that direct them to abstain from voting on such proposals. For each Fund, any proposal for which sufficient favorable votes have been received by the time of the Special Meeting will be

61

acted upon and such action will be final regardless of whether the Special Meeting is adjourned to permit additional solicitation with respect to another proposal for that Fund or a proposal for any other Fund.

Solicitation of Proxies

The solicitation of proxies by personal interview, mail, e-mail and telephone may be made by officers and Trustees/Directors of the Funds and officers and employees of PIMCO, their affiliates and other representatives of the Funds. PIMCO has retained [—] to aid in the solicitation of proxies (which is estimated to cost approximately $525,900), and this cost and the costs of preparing, printing and mailing this Proxy Statement and the cost of holding the Special Meeting (including the costs of any additional solicitation and any adjourned session) will be paid by PIMCO and not by the Funds.

Methods of Voting

The submission by a Shareholder of a proposal for inclusion in a Fund’s proxy materials does not guarantee that it will be included. Shareholder proposals are subject to certain requirements under the federal securities laws and must be submitted in accordance with the applicable Fund’s Bylaws. Shareholders submitting any other proposals (including proposals to elect Trustee/Director nominees) for a Fund intended to be presented at such Fund’s next annual meeting (i.e.,other than those to be included in the Fund’s proxy materials) must ensure that such proposals are received by the relevant Fund, in good order and complying with all applicable legal requirements and requirements set forth in such Fund’s Bylaws. The Bylaws of each Fund other than PCM provide that any such proposal must be received in writing by the relevant Fund not less than 45 days nor more than 60 days prior to the first anniversary date of the date on which such Fund first mailed its proxy materials for the prior year’s annual shareholder meeting; provided that, if, in accordance with applicable law, the upcoming annual shareholder meeting is set for a date that is not within 30 days from the anniversary of such Fund’s prior annual shareholder meeting, such proposal must be received by the later of the close of business on (i) the date 45 days prior to such upcoming annual shareholder meeting date or (ii) the 10th business day following the date such upcoming annual shareholder meeting date is first publicly announced or disclosed. PCM’s Bylaws provide that any such proposal must be received in writing by the Fund not less than 60 days nor more than 90 days prior to the first anniversary date of the annual meeting for the prior year; provided that, if, in accordance with applicable law, the annual meeting is not set for a date that is within 30 days from the anniversary of the Fund’s prior shareholder meeting, such proposals must be received by the later of the close of business on (i) the date 60 days prior to such upcoming shareholder meeting date or (ii) the 14th business day following the date such upcoming shareholder meeting date is first publicly announced or disclosed.

Assuming each Fund’s annual meeting is ultimately scheduled to be within 30 days of its most recent annual meeting, such proposals must be (or must have been) received no earlier than March 23, 2014 and no later than April 7, 2014 for PGP and RCS, no earlier than August 29, 2014 and no later than September 13, 2014 for PHK and PDI, no earlier than September 20, 2014 and no later than October 5, 2014 for PCQ, PCK, PZC, PMF, PML, PMX, PNF, PNI and PYN, no

If a Shareholder who wishes to present a proposal fails to notify the relevant Fund within these dates described above, the proxies solicited for that annual meeting will be voted on the Shareholder’s proposal, if it is properly brought before that annual meeting, in accordance with the judgment of the persons named in the proxy card(s) for that annual meeting. If a Shareholder makes a timely notification, the proxies may still exercise discretionary voting authority under circumstances consistent with the SEC’s proxy rules. Shareholder proposals for the upcoming annual shareholder meetings should be addressed to the attention of the Secretary of the applicable Fund, at the address of the principal executive offices of such Fund, with a copy to David C. Sullivan, Ropes & Gray LLP, Prudential Tower, 800 Boylston Street, Boston, Massachusetts 02199-3600.

If any other business is properly brought before the Special Meeting, the persons named as proxies will vote in their sole discretion.

The proxy materials sent to each Shareholder will include that Shareholder’s unique control number needed to vote his, her or its Shares. If you need additional copies of this Proxy Statement, please call [—].

The enclosed proxies are solicited by the Trustees/Directors of each Fund for use at a Joint Special Meeting of Shareholders of the Funds, being held at 9:30 a.m., Eastern time, on June 9, 2014, and at any adjournment(s) or postponement(s) thereof.

Each Fund hereby appoints PIMCO to provide the investment advisory services to the Fund and to provide or procure the supervisory and administrative and other services for the period and on the terms set forth in this Agreement, as amended or supplemented from time to time. PIMCO accepts such appointment and agrees during such period to render the services herein set forth for the compensation herein provided.

2.Duties. (a) PIMCO shall, at its expense, (i) employ or associate with itself such persons as it believes appropriate to assist it in performing its obligations under this Agreement and (ii) provide all services, equipment and facilities necessary to perform its obligations under this Agreement. PIMCO may from

A-1

time to time seek research assistance and rely on investment management resources available to it through its affiliated companies, but in no case shall such reliance relieve PIMCO of any of its obligations hereunder, nor shall a Fund be responsible for any additional fees or expenses hereunder as a result.

3.Investment Advisory Services. (a) PIMCO shall provide to each Fund investment guidance and policy direction in connection with the management of the Fund, including oral and written research, analysis, advice, and statistical and economic data and information.

Consistent with the investment objective(s), policies and restrictions applicable to each Fund, PIMCO will determine the securities and other assets to be purchased or sold or the other techniques to be utilized (including, but not limited to, the incurrence of leverage and securities lending) by the Fund and will determine what portion of the Fund shall be invested in securities or other assets, and what portion, if any, should be held uninvested.

Each Fund will have the benefit of the investment analysis and research, the review of current economic conditions and trends and the consideration of long-range investment policy generally available to investment advisory clients of PIMCO. It is understood that PIMCO will not, to the extent inconsistent with applicable law, use any material nonpublic information pertinent to investment decisions undertaken in connection with this Agreement that may be in its possession or in the possession of any of its affiliates.

(b) As manager of the assets of each Fund, PIMCO shall make investments for the account of the Fund in accordance with PIMCO’s best judgment and within the investment objective(s), policies and restrictions applicable to the Fund, the 1940 Act, any applicable SEC exemptive relief, no-action letters or other guidance, and the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 relating to regulated investment companies, subject to policy decisions adopted by the Fund’s Board of Trustees/Directors.

(c) PIMCO shall furnish to each Fund’s Board of Trustees/Directors periodic reports on the investment performance of the Fund and on the performance of its investment advisory obligations under this Agreement and shall supply such additional reports and information as the Fund’s officers or Board of Trustees/Directors shall reasonably request.

(d) On occasions when PIMCO deems the purchase or sale of a security to be in the best interest of a Fund as well as other of its clients, PIMCO, to the extent permitted by applicable law, may, but shall not be obligated to, aggregate the securities to be so sold or purchased in order to seek to obtain the best execution of the order or lower brokerage commissions or other transaction

A-2

costs, if any. PIMCO may also on occasion purchase or sell a particular security for one or more clients in different amounts. On either occasion, and to the extent permitted by applicable law and regulations, allocation of the securities so purchased or sold, as well as the expenses incurred in the transaction, will be made by PIMCO in the manner it considers to be equitable and consistent with its fiduciary obligations to a Fund and to such other customers.

(e) PIMCO may cause each Fund to pay a broker which provides brokerage and research services to PIMCO a commission for effecting a securities transaction in excess of the amount another broker might have charged. Such higher commissions may not be paid unless PIMCO determines in good faith that the amount paid is reasonable in relation to the services received in terms of the particular transaction or PIMCO’s overall responsibilities to each Fund and any other of PIMCO’s clients.

(f) PIMCO may itself, or may cause each Fund to, commence, join in, consent to or oppose the reorganization, recapitalization, consolidation, sale, merger, foreclosure, liquidation or readjustment of the finances of any person or the securities or other property thereof, and to deposit any securities or other property with any protective, reorganization or similar committee. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, PIMCO may represent each Fund on a creditors’ (or similar) committee.

(g) PIMCO shall have sole authority to exercise whatever powers each Fund may possess with respect to any of the assets of the Fund, including, but not limited to, the right to vote proxies, the power to exercise rights, options, warrants, conversion privileges and redemption privileges, and to tender securities pursuant to a tender offer.

Such actions shall include, but are not limited to, establishment and maintenance of a compliance program in accordance with Rule 38a-1 under the 1940 Act, support of each Fund’s Chief Compliance Officer, and systems and procedures necessary to effectuate the compliance program.

5.Calculation of Fees. Each Fund will pay to PIMCO as compensation for PIMCO’s services rendered, for the facilities furnished and for the expenses borne by PIMCO pursuant to Section 6, a fee, computed and paid monthly, at the annual rate for each Fund set forth in Schedule A.

The average daily total managed assets or average daily net assets, as applicable, of a Fund shall be determined by taking an average of all the determinations of such amount during such month at the close of business on each business day during such month while this Agreement is in effect. Such fee shall be payable for each month within 5 business days after the end of such month. If the fees payable to PIMCO pursuant to this Section 5 with respect to a Fund begin to accrue before the end of any month or if this Agreement terminates before the end of any month, the fees payable by the Fund for the period from that date to the end of that month or from the beginning of that month to the date of termination, as the case may be, shall be pro-rated according to the proportion which the period bears to the full month in which the effectiveness or termination occurs. For purposes of calculating “total managed assets” or “daily net assets”, the liquidation preference of any preferred shares outstanding shall not be considered a liability. By way of clarification, with

A-6

respect to any reverse repurchase agreement, dollar roll or similar transaction, “total managed assets” includes any proceeds from the sale of an asset of a Fund to a counterparty in such a transaction, in addition to the value of the underlying asset as of the relevant measuring date.

In the event that PIMCO has agreed to a fee waiver or an expense limitation or reimbursement arrangement with a Fund, subject to such terms and conditions as PIMCO and the Fund may set forth in such agreement, the compensation due PIMCO hereunder shall be reduced, and, if necessary, PIMCO shall bear expenses with respect to the Fund, to the extent required by such fee waiver or expense limitation or reimbursement arrangement.

6.Allocation of Expenses. During the term of this Agreement, PIMCO will pay all expenses incurred by it in connection with its obligations under this Agreement with respect to a Fund, except such expenses as are assumed by the Fund under this Agreement.

Services. Under the terms of each Portfolio Management Agreement, PIMCO, subject to the supervision of the Board and of AGIFM, furnishes continuously an investment program for the applicable Fund, makes all related investment decisions on behalf of the applicable Fund and places all orders for the purchase and sale of portfolio securities and all other investments. PIMCO is responsible for daily monitoring of the investment activities and portfolio holdings of the Funds in connection with the Funds’ compliance with their respective investment objective(s), policies and restrictions. PIMCO intends for the same teams of investment professionals to continue to manage each Fund’s

B-1

investment portfolio and, as such, it is not expected that the day-to-day portfolio management services will change. Rather, the Proposal, if approved, will require PIMCO to provide a broader range of investment management and supervisory and administrative services under the Proposed Agreement as compared to the portfolio management services required by the Portfolio Management Agreements, in replacement of AGIFM as the current investment manager.

Compensation. As compensation for PIMCO’s services rendered under each Portfolio Management Agreement, and for the expenses borne by PIMCO, AGIFM (and not the Funds) pays PIMCO a fee accrued daily and paid monthly, at the annual rates set forth in the table below.

any preferred shares and borrowings that may be outstanding) minus accrued liabilities (other than liabilities representing borrowings).

^4. Fees calculated based on the Fund’s average daily “total managed assets,” which means the total assets of the Fund (including assets attributable to any reverse repurchase agreements, borrowings and preferred shares that may be outstanding) minus accrued liabilities (other than liabilities representing reverse repurchase agreements and borrowings).

^5.  The Portfolio Management Agreement with respect to PTY provides that the portfolio management fee paid by AGIFM to PIMCO shall be at the maximum annual rate of 0.55% of PTY’s average daily net assets, provided that the fee will be reduced to 0.45% if and while AGIFM is obligated to pay a fee to Merrill, Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated (“Merrill Lynch”) pursuant to an Additional Compensation Agreement between AGIFM and Merrill Lynch (the “Additional Compensation Agreement”) with respect to PTY. As of the date of this Proxy Statement, the Additional Compensation Agreement is still in effect.

Termination/Amendment. Each Portfolio Management Agreement took full force and effect as to the applicable Fund for an initial two-year period, and has been subject thereafter to annual approval in conformity with the 1940 Act (i.e., approval by the Board of Trustees/Directors, or a majority of the Fund’s outstanding voting securities and, in either event, by the vote cast in person by a majority of the Independent Trustees/Directors). Each Portfolio Management Agreement may be terminated by the applicable Fund either by vote of a majority of the Trustees/Directors, or by the affirmative vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the Fund, without the payment of any penalty, at any time by written notice to AGIFM and PIMCO. AGIFM may at any time terminate a Portfolio Management Agreement by not less than sixty (60) days’ written notice to PIMCO, and PIMCO may at any time terminate a Portfolio Management Agreement by not less than sixty (60) days’ written notice to the Fund and AGIFM. A Portfolio Management Agreement may not be materially amended unless such material amendment is approved at a meeting by the affirmative vote of a majority of the outstanding voting securities of the applicable Fund, and by the vote, cast in person at a meeting called for the purpose of voting on such approval, of a majority of the Independent Trustees/Directors of the applicable Fund. Additionally, each Portfolio Management Agreement terminates automatically in the event of its assignment (as defined in the 1940 Act).

If the Proposal is approved with respect to a Fund, the Fund’s Portfolio Management Agreement will automatically terminate in connection with the termination of the Fund’s Current Agreement.

B-3

Liability. Each Portfolio Management Agreement provides that, in the absence of willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence on the part of PIMCO, or reckless disregard of its obligations and duties under the applicable Portfolio Management Agreement, PIMCO, including its officers, directors and members, will not be subject to any liability to AGIFM, to the applicable Fund, or to any shareholder, officer, partner or Trustee/Director thereof, for any act or omission in the course of, or in connection with, rendering services under such Portfolio Management Agreement.

Appendix C

Expense Example

The following example illustrates a hypothetical Shareholder’s total expenses under both the Current Agreements and the Proposed Agreement on a $1,000 investment in a Fund, assuming (1) that the Funds’ assets do not increase or decrease (including through the use of leverage); (2) that the Funds’ total expenses remain the same as shown in the Annual Expenses andPro Forma Annual Expenses Tables in the Proxy Statement and (3) a five percent annual return.The example should not be considered a representation of past or future expenses; actual expenses may be greater or less than those shown.The example assumes that the estimated Interest Expenses on Borrowed Funds and Other Expenses set forth in the Annual Expenses andPro Forma Annual Expenses Tables in the Proxy Statement are accurate, that the rate listed under Total Annual Expenses remains the same each year and that all dividends and distributions are reinvested at net asset value. Actual expenses may be greater or less than those assumed. Moreover, each Fund’s actual rate of return may be greater or less than the hypothetical 5% annual return shown in the example. The actual amount of interest expense borne by a Fund will vary over time in accordance with the level of the Fund’s use of certain forms of leverage and/or variations in market interest rates.
