IMPORTANT NOTICE
REGARDING YOUR INVESTMENT
PIMCO SPONSORED CLOSED-END FUNDS
ACTION REQUESTED
To our shareholders:
The Board of Trustees/Directors of your PIMCO Sponsored Closed-End Fund(s) (each, a “Fund,” and together, the “Funds”) is requesting that shareholders voice their opinion on the matter to be voted on at the next Special Meeting of Shareholders.
YOUR VOTE IS IMPORTANT. OUR RECORDS INDICATE THAT YOU HAVE NOT YET VOTED ON THE PROPOSAL. PLEASE TAKE A MOMENT NOW TO CAST YOUR VOTE.
The Special Meeting of Shareholders originally scheduled to occur on June 9, 2014 was adjourned to July 10, 2014 due to insufficient responses from shareholders. The Special Meeting of Shareholders will be reconvened at the offices of PIMCO, at 1633 Broadway, between West 50th and West 51st Streets, 42nd Floor, New York, New York 10019, on July 10, 2014, at 2:00 P.M., Eastern Time.
Shareholders are given the opportunity to vote on the matter set forth at a shareholder meeting in order to collectively approve or disprove the item on the agenda. The polls are still open for your Fund(s), so the opportunity to voice your opinion on the proposal listed below and outlined on the attached proxy card is now.
Shareholders are asked to consider andVOTE on the following matter:
• | To approve the Investment Management Agreement between the Funds and Pacific Investment Management Company LLC. |
Information regarding the Special Meeting and the proposal can be found in the proxy statement.For assistance in voting your shares please call (877) 361-7967.
Why am I being asked to vote? |
Your vote is very important and can make a difference in the governance and management of the Fund(s). Your vote can help ensure that the proposal recommended by the Board can be implemented. |
Why are the Board and PIMCO recommending this change in the Fund’s Management Structure at this time? |
The proposal is a natural next step in the broader PIMCO/Allianz Global Investors reorganization effort initiated in 2012, which was 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. |
What are the expected benefits to shareholders of moving to the new PIMCO-only management structure? |
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. |
