President’s Letter

Dear Stockholder,

I am pleased to present to you this annual report for Neuberger Berman Real Estate Securities Income Fund Inc. (the “Fund”) for the 12 months ended October 31, 2018. The report includes a portfolio commentary, a listing of the Fund’s investments and its audited financial statements for the reporting period.

The Fund seeks to provide high current income with capital appreciation as a secondary objective. To pursue both, we have assembled a portfolio with a broad mix of equity securities of real estate investment trusts (REITs) and other real estate companies. Our investment approach combines analysis of security fundamentals and real estate with property sector diversification. Our disciplined valuation methodology seeks real estate company securities that we believe are attractively priced relative to both their historical growth rates and the valuation of other property sectors.

On October 31, 2018, the Fund announced a decrease in its monthly distribution rate to $0.040 per share of common stock from the prior monthly distribution rate of $0.045 per share. The decrease in the Fund’s distribution rate is the result of numerous factors, including increased volatility and general price pressure on real estate investment trusts as interest rates have moved higher; reductions in the Fund’s leverage and level of leverage that the Fund will likely have in the near future; and the resultant overall reduction in the amount of investment income earned, and expected to be earned in the near future, by the Fund.

Thank you for your confidence in the Fund. We will continue to do our best to retain your trust in the years to come.

Sincerely,

Joseph V. Amato
President and CEO
Neuberger Berman Real Estate Securities Income Fund Inc.

Neuberger Berman Real Estate Securities Income Fund Inc. Portfolio Commentary (Unaudited)

Neuberger Berman Real Estate Securities Income Fund Inc. (the Fund) generated a -2.90% total return on a net asset value (NAV) basis for the 12 month reporting period ended October 31, 2018 and underperformed its benchmark, the FTSE NAREIT All Equity REITs Index (the Index), which provided a 1.79% total return for the same period. (Fund performance on a market price basis is provided in the table immediately following this commentary.)

Despite several setbacks, the U.S. stock market generated a positive return during the reporting period. The market was initially supported by generally solid corporate profits. However, the market fell sharply in February and March 2018, partially due to fears that the U.S. Federal Reserve (Fed) would take a more aggressive approach in terms of future interest rate hikes. The market then rallied over the next six months as generally positive economic data and robust corporate profits overshadowed concerns over a global trade war. The market ended the reporting period on a weak note amid renewed worries over Fed monetary policy tightening, fears of moderating economic growth, and ongoing trade war rhetoric. All told, the S&P 500^® Index gained 7.35% over the 12 months ended October 31, 2018. Comparatively, real estate investment trusts (REITs) lagged the S&P 500 Index. This was partially due to periods of negative investor sentiment given rising interest rates.

The Fund ended the reporting period with approximately 40% of its total assets in REIT preferred shares. This detracted from performance as preferred shares, as measured by the FTSE NAREIT Preferred Stock Index, returned -3.24% for the reporting period. Stock selection also detracted from relative results, whereas sector allocation contributed to returns. Stock selection in Regional Malls, Shopping Centers, and Diversified detracted the most from the Fund’s performance. Contributing the most to performance was stock selection in the Health Care, Apartments, and Data Center sectors. In terms of sector positioning, an overweight to Mortgage Commercial Financing, an underweight to Timber REITs, and an overweight to Regional Malls were the most beneficial for performance. Conversely, an overweight to Diversified, coupled with underweights to Infrastructure REITs and Free Standing, were the largest headwinds for results.

Among the adjustments we made to the Fund during the reporting period, we increased the Fund’s allocations to the Free Standing and Health Care sectors, while reducing its exposures to the Diversified and Specialty sectors.

Looking ahead, we anticipate continued U.S. economic growth for the remainder of 2018 and into 2019. We believe the Fed will continue to move interest rates toward a neutral position—that is, a rate that is neither accommodative nor restrictive toward growth – as long as economic growth remains near its current levels. While higher interest rates continue to be a near-term headwind, we believe that the drivers of this trend—an improving economy, job growth, and modest inflation—should support real estate fundamentals. Last year’s tax cuts have positively impacted corporate profitability, while also increasing disposable income for many consumers. Our view is that improved consumer confidence, strong non-residential fixed investment and modest inflation should generally benefit tenant demand. We are closely monitoring the potential impact from escalating trade tariffs, government deregulation, and infrastructure spending that may affect the real estate sector.

Sincerely,

Steve Shigekawa and Brian Jones

Closed-end funds, unlike open-end funds, are not continually offered. Generally, there is an initial public offering and, once issued, shares of common stock of closed-end funds are sold in the secondary market on a stock exchange.

The performance data quoted represent past performance and do not indicate future results. Current performance may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. For more current performance data, please visit www.nb.com/cef-performance.

The results shown in the table reflect the reinvestment of income dividends and other distributions, if any. The results do not reflect the effect of taxes a stockholder would pay on Fund distributions or on the sale of shares of the Fund’s common stock.

The investment return and market price will fluctuate and shares of the Fund’s common stock may trade at prices above or below NAV. Shares of the Fund’s common stock, when sold, may be worth more or less than their original cost.

Returns would have been lower if Neuberger Berman Investment Advisers LLC (“Management”) had not waived a portion of its investment management fees during certain of the periods shown. The waived fees are from prior years that are no longer disclosed in the Financial Highlights.

Notes to Financial Statements Real Estate Securities
Income Fund Inc.

Note A—Summary of Significant Accounting Policies:

1	General:Neuberger Berman Real Estate Securities Income Fund Inc. (the “Fund”) was organized as a Maryland corporation on August 28, 2003 as a non-diversified, closed-end management investment company under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “1940 Act”). Under the 1940 Act, the status of a fund that was registered as non-diversified may, under certain circumstances, change to that of a diversified fund. The Fund is currently a diversified fund. The Fund’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) may classify or re-classify any unissued shares of capital stock into one or more classes of preferred stock without the approval of stockholders.
	The Fund is an investment company and accordingly follows the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 946 “Financial Services—Investment Companies.”
	The preparation of financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) requires Neuberger Berman Investment Advisers LLC (“Management”) to make estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
2	Portfolio valuation:In accordance with ASC 820 “Fair Value Measurement” (“ASC 820”), all investments held by the Fund are carried at the value that Management believes the Fund would receive upon selling an investment in an orderly transaction to an independent buyer in the principal or most advantageous market for the investment under current market conditions. Various inputs, including the volume and level of activity for the asset or liability in the market, are considered in valuing the Fund’s investments, some of which are discussed below. Significant Management judgment may be necessary to value investments in accordance with ASC 820.
	ASC 820 established a three-tier hierarchy of inputs to create a classification of value measurements for disclosure purposes. The three-tier hierarchy of inputs is summarized in the three broad Levels listed below.
	●Level 1 – quoted prices in active markets for identical investments ●Level 2 – other observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, amortized cost, etc.) ●Level 3 – unobservable inputs (including the Fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)
	The inputs or methodology used for valuing an investment are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.
	The value of the Fund’s investments in equity securities, certain preferred stocks and exchange-traded options purchased and options written, for which market quotations are readily available, is generally determined by Management by obtaining valuations from independent pricing services based on the latest sale price quoted on a principal exchange or market for that security (Level 1 inputs). Securities traded primarily on the NASDAQ Stock Market are normally valued at the NASDAQ Official Closing Price (“NOCP”) provided by NASDAQ each business day. The NOCP is the most recently reported price as of 4:00:02 p.m., Eastern Time, unless that price is outside the range of the “inside” bid and asked prices (i.e., the bid and asked prices that dealers quote to each other when trading for their own accounts); in that case, NASDAQ will adjust the price to equal the inside bid or asked price, whichever is closer. Because of delays in reporting trades, the NOCP may not be based on the price of the last trade to occur before the market closes. If there is no sale of a security on a particular day, the independent pricing services may value the security based on market quotations. The value of certain preferred stock is determined by

15

	Management by obtaining valuations from independent pricing services which are based on market information which may include benchmark yields, reported trades, broker/dealer quotes, issuer spreads, benchmark securities, bids, offers, and reference data, such as market research publications, when available (generally Level 2 inputs).
	Management has developed a process to periodically review information provided by independent pricing services for all types of securities.
	Investments in non-exchange traded investment companies are valued using the respective fund’s daily calculated net asset value (“NAV”) per share (Level 2 inputs).
	If a valuation is not available from an independent pricing service, or if Management has reason to believe that the valuation received does not represent the amount the Fund might reasonably expect to receive on a current sale in an orderly transaction, Management seeks to obtain quotations from brokers or dealers (generally considered Level 2 or Level 3 inputs depending on the number of quotes available). If such quotations are not readily available, the security is valued using methods the Fund’s Board has approved in the good-faith belief that the resulting valuation will reflect the fair value of the security. Numerous factors may be considered when determining the fair value of a security based on Level 2 or Level 3 inputs, including available analyst, media or other reports, securities within the same industry with recent highly correlated performance, trading in futures or American Depositary Receipts and whether the issuer of the security being fair valued has other securities outstanding.
	Fair value prices are necessarily estimates, and there is no assurance that such a price will be at or close to the price at which the security is next quoted or next trades.
3	Securities transactions and investment income: Securities transactions are recorded on trade date for financial reporting purposes. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at the fair market value of the securities received. Interest income, including accretion of original issue discount, where applicable, and accretion of discount on short-term investments, if any, is recorded on the accrual basis. Realized gains and losses from securities transactions are recorded on the basis of identified cost and stated separately in the Statement of Operations.
4	Income tax information:It is the policy of the Fund to continue to qualify for treatment as a regulated investment company (“RIC”) by complying with the requirements of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code applicable to RICs and to distribute substantially all of its net investment income and net realized capital gains to its stockholders. To the extent the Fund distributes substantially all of its net investment income and net realized capital gains to stockholders, no federal income or excise tax provision is required.
	The Fund has adopted the provisions of ASC 740 “Income Taxes” (“ASC 740”). ASC 740 sets forth a minimum threshold for financial statement recognition of a tax position taken, or expected to be taken, in a tax return. The Fund recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to unrecognized tax positions as an income tax expense in the Statement of Operations. The Fund is subject to examination by U.S. federal and state tax authorities for returns filed for the tax years for which the applicable statutes of limitations have not yet expired. As of October 31, 2018, the Fund did not have any unrecognized tax positions.
	At October 31, 2018, the cost for all long security positions and derivative instruments (if any) for U.S. federal income tax basis was $359,513,692. Gross unrealized appreciation of long security positions was $10,372,089 and gross unrealized depreciation of long security positions was $29,534,256 resulting in net unrealized depreciation of $19,162,167 based on cost for U.S. federal income tax purposes.
	Income distributions and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments of income and gains on various investment securities held by the Fund, timing differences and differing characterization of distributions made by the Fund.

16

As determined on October 31, 2018, permanent differences resulting primarily from different book and tax accounting were reclassified at year end. Such differences are attributed to the tax treatment of non-deductible restructuring costs and prior year partnership adjustments. These reclassifications had no effect on net income, NAV applicable to common stockholders or NAV per share of common stock of the Fund. For the year ended October 31, 2018, the Fund recorded the following permanent reclassifications:

	Total
	Distributable
Paid-in Capital	Earnings/(Loss)
$(43,360)	$43,360

The tax character of distributions paid during the years ended October 31, 2018 and October 31, 2017 was as follows:

Distributions Paid From:
		Long-Term		Return of
Ordinary Income		Capital Gain		Capital		Total
2018	2017	2018	2017	2018	2017	2018	2017
$9,791,597	$25,066,388	$—	$—	$15,815,025	$—	$25,606,622	$25,066,388

As of October 31, 2018, the components of distributable earnings (accumulated losses) on a U.S. federal income tax basis were as follows:

Undistributed	Undistributed	Unrealized	Loss	Other
Ordinary	Long-Term	Appreciation/	Carryforwards	Temporary
Income	Capital Gain	(Depreciation)	and Deferrals	Differences	Total
$—	$—	$(19,162,167)	$(8,324,810)	$(4,699)	$(27,491,676)

The temporary differences between book basis and tax basis distributable earnings are primarily due to partnership basis adjustments and timing differences of distribution payments.

To the extent the Fund’s net realized capital gains, if any, can be offset by capital loss carryforwards, it is the policy of the Fund not to distribute such gains. Capital loss carryforward rules allow for RICs to carry forward capital losses indefinitely and to retain the character of capital loss carryforwards as short-term or long-term. As determined at October 31, 2018, the Fund had unused capital loss carryforwards available for federal income tax purposes to offset net realized capital gains, if any, as follows:

Post-Enactment
(No Expiration Date)
Long-Term	Short-Term
$2,592,789	$5,732,021

5 Distributions to common stockholders: The Fund earns income, net of expenses, daily on its investments. It is the policy of the Fund to declare and pay monthly distributions to common stockholders. The Fund has adopted a policy to pay common stockholders a stable monthly distribution. The Fund’s ability to satisfy its policy will depend on a number of factors, including the stability of income received from its investments, the availability of capital gains, distributions paid on any preferred shares, interest paid on any borrowings and the level of Fund expenses. In an effort to maintain a stable distribution amount, the Fund may pay distributions consisting of net investment income, net realized gains and paid-in capital. There is no assurance that the Fund will always be able to pay distributions of a particular size, or that distributions will consist solely of net investment income and net realized capital gains. The composition of the Fund’s distributions for the calendar year 2018 will be reported to Fund stockholders on IRS Form 1099-DIV. The Fund may pay distributions in excess of those required by its stable distribution policy to avoid excise tax or to satisfy the requirements of Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code. Distributions to common stockholders are recorded on the ex-date. Net realized capital gains, if any, will be offset to the extent of any available capital loss carryforwards. Any such offset will not reduce the level of the stable monthly distribution paid by the Fund.

17

	The Fund invests a significant portion of its assets in securities issued by real estate companies, including REITs. The distributions the Fund receives from REITs are generally composed of income, capital gains, and/or return of REIT capital, but the REITs do not report this information to the Fund until the following calendar year. At October 31, 2018, the Fund estimated these amounts for the period January 1, 2018 to October 31, 2018 within the financial statements because the 2018 information is not available from the REITs until after the Fund’s fiscal year-end. All estimates are based upon REIT information sources available to the Fund together with actual IRS Forms 1099-DIV received to date. For the year ended October 31, 2018, the character of distributions, if any, paid to stockholders of the Fund disclosed within the Statements of Changes in Net Assets is based on estimates made at that time. Based on past experience it is possible that a portion of the Fund’s distributions during the current fiscal year, if any, will be considered tax return of capital, but the actual amount of the tax return of capital, if any, is not determinable until after the Fund’s fiscal year-end. After calendar year-end, when the Fund learns the nature of the distributions paid by REITs during that year, distributions previously identified as income are often re-characterized as return of capital and/or capital gain. After all applicable REITs have informed the Fund of the actual breakdown of distributions paid to the Fund during its fiscal year, estimates previously recorded are adjusted on the books of the Fund to reflect actual results. As a result, the composition of the Fund’s distributions as reported herein may differ from the final composition determined after calendar year-end and reported to Fund stockholders on IRS Form 1099-DIV.
	On October 31, 2018, the Fund declared a monthly distribution to common stockholders in the amount of $0.04 per share, payable on November 30, 2018 to stockholders of record on November 15, 2018, with an ex-date of November 14, 2018. Subsequent to October 31, 2018, the Fund declared a monthly distribution on November 30, 2018 to common stockholders in the amount of $0.04 per share, payable on December 31, 2018 to stockholders of record on December 17, 2018, with an ex-date of December 14, 2018.
6	Expense allocation: Certain expenses are applicable to multiple funds within the complex of related investment companies. Expenses directly attributable to the Fund are charged to the Fund. Expenses borne by the complex of related investment companies, which includes open-end and closed-end investment companies for which Management serves as investment manager, that are not directly attributable to a particular investment company (e.g., the Fund) are allocated among the Fund and the other investment companies or series thereof in the complex on the basis of relative net assets, except where a more appropriate allocation of expenses to each of the investment companies or series thereof in the complex can otherwise be made fairly.
7	Financial leverage: In September 2014, the Fund entered into a $125 million secured, committed five-year credit facility (the “Facility”) with State Street Bank and Trust Company (“State Street”). Under the Facility, State Street made a Term Loan of $75 million and committed to making revolving Libor Loans and Base Rate Loans of up to $50 million.
	Under the Facility, interest on the Term Loan is charged at a fixed rate of 3.53% and is payable on the first day of each calendar quarter. Interest on Libor Loans is charged at an adjusted Libor rate and is payable (i) on the last day of the interest period in effect and (ii) in the event such interest period shall exceed three months, on the last day of each three month interval during such interest period. Interest on Base Rate Loans is charged at a rate per annum equal to the higher of (i) a rate per annum equal to an adjusted rate above the federal funds rate as in effect on that day, and (ii) the annual rate of interest announced from time to time by State Street as its “prime rate,” and is payable on the first day of each calendar month and on the termination date. The Fund has paid up front expenses in connection with the establishment and documentation of the Facility, which are being amortized over the life of the Facility. The expenses are included in the Interest expense line item that is reflected in the Statement of Operations.
	During the year ended October 31, 2018, the average principal balance and interest rate was approximately $113.1 million and 3.36% respectively. At October 31, 2018, the principal balance outstanding under the Facility was $100 million.

18

	The Fund pays a commitment fee in arrears based on the unused portion of the revolving commitment amount under the Facility. This fee is included in the Interest expense line item that is reflected in the Statement of Operations. Under the terms of the Facility, the Fund is required to satisfy certain collateral requirements and maintain a certain level of net assets.
	On September 26, 2012, pursuant to a Master Securities Purchase Agreement, the Fund issued 1,000 Mandatory Redeemable Preferred Shares, Series A (“MRPS”) in a private placement. The MRPS had an aggregate liquidation preference of $25 million and a mandatory redemption date of September 26, 2017. On April 12, 2017, the Fund redeemed all of its issued and outstanding MRPS at a redemption price equal to the liquidation value of $25,000 per share plus any accumulated but unpaid distributions. The MRPS redemption was funded by $25 million in borrowings under the revolving portion of the Fund’s Facility.
8	Concentration of risk: Under normal market conditions, the Fund’s investments will be concentrated in income producing common equity securities, preferred securities, convertible securities and non-convertible debt securities issued by companies deriving the majority of their revenue from the ownership, construction, financing, management and/or sale of commercial, industrial, and/or residential real estate. The value of the Fund’s common stock may fluctuate more due to economic, legal, cultural, geopolitical or technological developments affecting the United States real estate industry, or a segment of the United States real estate industry in which the Fund owns a substantial position, than would the stock of a fund not concentrated in the real estate industry.
9	Derivative instruments—Options:During the year ended October 31, 2018, the Fund used options written to enhance total return. During the year ended October 31, 2018, the Fund used options purchased to enhance total return.
	Premiums paid by the Fund upon purchasing a call or put option are recorded in the asset section of the Fund’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities and are subsequently adjusted to the current market value. When an option is exercised, closed, or expired, the Fund realizes a gain or loss and the asset is eliminated. For purchased call options, the Fund’s loss is limited to the amount of the option premium paid.
	Premiums received by the Fund upon writing a call option or a put option are recorded in the liability section of the Fund’s Statement of Assets and Liabilities and are subsequently adjusted to the current market value. When an option is exercised, closed, or expired, the Fund realizes a gain or loss and the liability is eliminated.
	When the Fund writes a call option on an underlying asset it does not own, its exposure on such an option is theoretically unlimited. When writing a covered call option, the Fund, in return for the premium, gives up the opportunity for profit from a price increase in the underlying security above the exercise price, but conversely retains the risk of loss should the price of the security decline. When writing a put option, the Fund, in return for the premium, takes the risk that it must purchase the underlying security at a price that may be higher than the current market price of the security. If a covered call or put option that the Fund has written expires unexercised, the Fund will realize a gain in the amount of the premium. All securities covering outstanding written options are held in escrow by the custodian bank.
	The impact of the use of these derivative instruments on the Statement of Operations during the year ended October 31, 2018, was as follows:

Realized Gain/(Loss)

	Equity Risk	Statement of Operations Location
Options purchased	$(33,878)	Net realized gain/(loss) on: sales of
Total Realized Gain/(Loss)	$(33,878)	investment securities of unaffiliated issuers

19

10	Securities Lending: The Fund, using State Street as its lending agent, may loan securities to qualified brokers and dealers in exchange for negotiated lender’s fees. These fees, if any, would be disclosed within the Statement of Operations under the caption “Income from securities loaned-net” and are net of expenses retained by State Street as compensation for its services as lending agent.
	The initial cash collateral received by the Fund at the beginning of each transaction shall have a value equal to at least 102% of the prior day’s market value of the loaned securities (105% in the case of international securities). Thereafter, the value of the cash collateral is monitored on a daily basis, and cash collateral is moved daily between a counterparty and the Fund until the close of the transaction. The Fund may only receive collateral in the form of cash (U.S. dollars). Cash collateral is generally invested in a money market fund registered under the 1940 Act that is managed by an affiliate of State Street. The risks associated with lending portfolio securities include, but are not limited to, possible delays in receiving additional collateral or in the recovery of the loaned securities. Any increase or decrease in the fair value of the securities loaned and any interest earned or dividends paid or owed on those securities during the term of the loan would accrue to the Fund.
	As of October 31, 2018, the Fund did not participate in securities lending.
11	Indemnifications:Like many other companies, the Fund’s organizational documents provide that its officers (“officers”) and directors (“Directors”) are indemnified against certain liabilities arising out of the performance of their duties to the Fund. In addition, both in some of its principal service contracts and in the normal course of its business, the Fund enters into contracts that provide indemnifications to other parties for certain types of losses or liabilities. The Fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown as this could involve future claims against the Fund.
12	Arrangements with certain non-affiliated service providers: In order to satisfy rating agency requirements, the Fund was required to provide the rating agency that rated its MRPS a report on a monthly basis verifying that the Fund was maintaining eligible assets having a discounted value equal to or greater than the MRPS Basic Maintenance Amount, which was a minimum level set by the rating agency as one of the conditions to maintain its rating on the MRPS. “Discounted value” refers to the fact that the rating agency required the Fund, in performing this calculation, to discount portfolio securities below their face value, at rates determined by the rating agency. The Fund paid a fee to State Street for the preparation of this report, which is reflected in the Statement of Operations under the caption “Basic maintenance expense (Note A).”

Note B—Investment Management Fees, Administration Fees, and Other Transactions with Affiliates:

The Fund retains Management as its investment manager under a Management Agreement. For such investment management services, the Fund pays Management a fee at the annual rate of 0.60% of its average daily Managed Assets. Managed Assets equal the total assets of the Fund, less liabilities other than the aggregate indebtedness entered into for purposes of leverage. For purposes of calculating Managed Assets, the Liquidation Value of any MRPS (prior to April 12, 2017) that were outstanding and borrowings under the Facility are not considered liabilities.

The Fund retains Management as its administrator under an Administration Agreement. The Fund pays Management an administration fee at the annual rate of 0.25% of its average daily Managed Assets under this agreement. Additionally, Management retains State Street as its sub-administrator under a Sub-Administration Agreement. Management pays State Street a fee for all services received under the Sub-Administration Agreement.

Note C—Securities Transactions:

During the year ended October 31, 2018, there were purchase and sale transactions of long-term securities of $43,422,700 and $74,918,442, respectively.

20

During the year ended October 31, 2018, no brokerage commissions on securities transactions were paid to affiliated brokers.

Note D—Capital:

Transactions in common stock for the years ended October 31, 2018 and October 31, 2017 were as follows:

	2018	2017
Redemption of Common Stock (Note E)	—	(8,368,176)
Net Increase/(Decrease) in Common Stock Outstanding	—	(8,368,176)

Note E—Common Stock Tender Offer:

On July 25, 2016, the Fund announced: (i) the adoption of a conditional tender offer, pursuant to which it would conduct a tender offer for up to 15% of its outstanding shares of common stock at a price equal to 98% of its net asset value per share (“NAV”) if its common stock traded at an average daily discount to NAV of more than 10% during the period from December 31, 2015 through September 30, 2016 (the “2016 Measurement Period”); and (ii) a tender offer program under which the Fund would conduct two separate 12-week measurement periods during 2017 (the “Tender Offer Program”).

The average daily discount to NAV for the 2016 Measurement Period was 11.80%. As a result, the Fund conducted a tender offer that commenced on December 9, 2016 and expired at midnight on January 10, 2017 (one minute after 11:59 p.m. New York City Time on January 9, 2017). The Fund offered to purchase up to 15% of its outstanding shares of common stock at a price equal to 98% of its NAV determined on January 9, 2017. In accordance with the terms of the tender offer, since the tender offer was oversubscribed, the Fund purchased 15% of its outstanding shares of common stock on a pro-rata basis, after taking into account “odd lots” and with appropriate adjustment to avoid purchase of fractional shares of common stock, based on the number of shares properly tendered. The Fund purchased 8,368,176 shares of common stock at a purchase price of $5.81 per share, representing 98% of the NAV on January 9, 2017.

Under the Tender Offer Program, the Fund conducted two separate 12-week measurement periods during 2017. If the Fund’s common stock had traded at an average daily discount to NAV of greater than 10% during a 12-week measurement period, the Fund would have conducted a tender offer for at least 8% of its outstanding shares of common stock at a price equal to 98% of the Fund’s NAV determined on the day the tender offer expires.

The first of the two measurement periods under the Tender Offer Program commenced on January 3, 2017 and ended on March 28, 2017. The average daily discount to NAV for this measurement period was -9.86% and, therefore, in accordance with the Tender Offer Program, the Fund did not conduct a tender offer.

The second measurement period under the Tender Offer Program commenced on July 10, 2017 and ended on October 2, 2017. The average daily discount to NAV for this measurement period was -6.99% and, therefore, in accordance with the Tender Offer Program, the Fund did not conduct a tender offer.

Note F—Custodian Out-of-Pocket Expenses Refunded:

In May 2016, the Fund’s custodian, State Street, announced that it had identified inconsistencies in the way in which the Fund was invoiced for categories of expenses, particularly those deemed “out-of-pocket” costs, from 1998 through November 2015. The amounts in the table below represent the refunded expenses and interest determined to be payable to the Fund for the period in question. These amounts were refunded to the Fund by State Street during the year ended October 31, 2017.

Expenses Refunded	Interest Paid to the Fund
$60,916	$5,207

Note G—Recent Accounting Pronouncements:

As of November 5, 2018, pursuant to the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) Release #33-10532 “Disclosure Update and Simplification”, the Fund is no longer required to disclose whether the distributions from earnings are either from net investment income or net realized capital gains. The presentation for the year ended October 31, 2017 has been adjusted for this change in the Statements of Changes in Net Assets. At October 31, 2017, the distributions from net investment income and distributions in excess of net investment income were as follows:

	Distributions in excess of
Net Investment Income	net investment income
$(24,616,388)	$(107,050)

On August 26, 2016, FASB issued a new ASU No. 2016-15, “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230), Classification of Certain Cash Receipts and Cash Payments, a consensus of the FASB’s Emerging Issues Task Force” (“ASU 2016-15”). ASU 2016-15 is intended to reduce diversity in practice in how certain transactions are classified in the statement of cash flows. The types of transactions addressed in ASU 2016-15 are debt prepayment or debt extinguishment costs, settlement of zero-coupon debt instruments, contingent consideration payments made after a business combination, proceeds from the settlement of insurance claims, proceeds from the settlement of corporate-owned life insurance, distributions received from equity method investees, and beneficial interests in securitization transactions. The amendments also clarify how the predominance principle should be applied. ASU 2016-15 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Management is currently evaluating the impact, if any, of applying this provision.

In November 2016, FASB issued a new ASU No. 2016-18, “Statement of Cash Flows (Topic 230), Restricted Cash” (“ASU 2016-18”). ASU 2016-18 requires that a statement of cash flows show the changes during the period in the total of cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents. ASU 2016-18 is effective for interim and annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2017. Management is currently evaluating the impact, if any, of applying this guidance.

In August 2018, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2018-13, “Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820: Disclosure Framework –Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement” (“ASU 2018-13”). ASU 2018-13 eliminates the requirement to disclose the amount of and reasons for transfers between Level 1 and Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, the timing of transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy and the valuation processes for Level 3 fair value measurements. ASU 2018-13 will require the need to disclose the range and weighted average used to develop significant unobservable inputs for Level 3 fair value measurements and the changes in unrealized gains and losses for recurring Level 3 fair value measurements. ASU 2018-13 will also require that information is provided about the measurement uncertainty of Level 3 fair value measurements as of the reporting date. The guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019 and allows for early adoption of either the entire standard or only the provisions that eliminate or modify the requirements. Management has elected to early adopt the provisions that eliminate disclosure requirements. Management is still currently evaluating the impact of applying the rest of the guidance.

Notes to Financial Highlights

@	Calculated based on the average number of shares of common stock outstanding during each fiscal period.
†	Total return based on per share NAV reflects the effects of changes in NAV on the performance of the Fund during each fiscal period. Total return based on per share market value assumes the purchase of shares of common stock at the market price on the first day and sale of common stock at the market price on the last day of the period indicated. Distributions, if any, are assumed to be reinvested at prices obtained under the Fund’s distribution reinvestment plan. Results represent past performance and do not indicate future results. Current returns may be lower or higher than the performance data quoted. Investment returns may fluctuate and shares of common stock when sold may be worth more or less than original cost.
††	Income ratios include income earned on assets attributable to the MRPS (prior to April 12, 2017) outstanding.
^	On September 26, 2012, the Fund issued 1,000 MRPS, which were outstanding until April 12, 2017 (see Note A to Financial Statements).
ØØ	Interest expense is included in expense ratios. The annualized ratios of interest expense to average net assets applicable to common stockholders were:

Year Ended October 31,
2018	2017	2016	2015	2014
1.51%	1.24%	0.96%	0.92%	0.43%

¢	Calculated by subtracting the Fund’s total liabilities (excluding the liquidation preference of MRPS (prior to April 12, 2017) and accumulated unpaid distributions on MRPS (prior to April 12, 2017)) from the Fund’s total assets and dividing by the number of MRPS outstanding.
¢¢	Calculated by subtracting the Fund’s total liabilities (excluding the liquidation preference of MRPS (prior to April 12, 2017), loans payable, accumulated unpaid distributions on MRPS (prior to April 12, 2017) and accumulated unpaid interest on loans payable) from the Fund’s total assets and dividing by the outstanding loans payable balance.
£	During the year ended October 31, 2017, the Fund conducted a tender offer for up to 15% of its outstanding shares of common stock at a price equal to 98% of the Fund’s NAV per share. During the year ended October 31, 2017, final payment for the tender offer was made at $5.81 per share representing 98% of the NAV per share on January 9, 2017.
ØØØ	During the year ended October 31, 2017, the Fund adopted FASB’s Accounting Standards Update No. 2015-03. At October 31, 2018, the value of Loans Payable is being shown net of unamortized deferred offering costs of $30,482. At October 31, 2017, the value of Loans Payable is being shown net of unamortized deferred offering costs of $63,993.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Stockholders and Board of Directors of
Neuberger Berman Real Estate Securities Income Fund Inc.

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying statement of assets and liabilities of Neuberger Berman Real Estate Securities Income Fund Inc. (the “Fund”), including the schedule of investments, as of October 31, 2018 and the related statements of operations and cash flows for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Fund at October 31, 2018, the results of its operations and cash flows for the year ended, the changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended and its financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Fund’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on each of the Fund’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Fund in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Fund is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits, we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Fund’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of October 31, 2018, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers or by other appropriate auditing procedures where replies from brokers were not received. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

We have served as the auditor of one or more Neuberger Berman investment companies since 1954.

Distribution Reinvestment Plan for the Fund

American Stock Transfer & Trust Company, LLC (the “Plan Agent”) will act as Plan Agent for stockholders who have not elected in writing to receive dividends and distributions in cash (each a “Participant”), will open an account for each Participant under the Distribution Reinvestment Plan (“Plan”) in the same name as their then-current shares of the Fund’s common stock (“Shares”) are registered, and will put the Plan into effect for each Participant as of the first record date for a dividend or capital gains distribution.

Whenever the Fund declares a dividend or distribution with respect to the Shares, each Participant will receive such dividends and distributions in additional Shares, including fractional Shares acquired by the Plan Agent and credited to each Participant’s account. If on the payment date for a cash dividend or distribution, the net asset value is equal to or less than the market price per Share plus estimated brokerage commissions, the Plan Agent shall automatically receive such Shares, including fractions, for each Participant’s account. Except in the circumstances described in the next paragraph, the number of additional Shares to be credited to each Participant’s account shall be determined by dividing the dollar amount of the dividend or distribution payable on their Shares by the greater of the net asset value per Share determined as of the date of purchase or 95% of the then-current market price per Share on the payment date.

Should the net asset value per Share exceed the market price per Share plus estimated brokerage commissions on the payment date for a cash dividend or distribution, the Plan Agent or a broker-dealer selected by the Plan Agent shall endeavor, for a purchase period lasting until the last business day before the next date on which the Shares trade on an “ex-dividend” basis, but in no event, except as provided below, more than 30 days after the payment date, to apply the amount of such dividend or distribution on each Participant’s Shares (less their pro rata share of brokerage commissions incurred with respect to the Plan Agent’s open-market purchases in connection with the reinvestment of such dividend or distribution) to purchase Shares on the open market for each Participant’s account. No such purchases may be made more than 30 days after the payment date for such dividend or distribution except where temporary curtailment or suspension of purchase is necessary to comply with applicable provisions of federal securities laws. If, at the close of business on any day during the purchase period the net asset value per Share equals or is less than the market price per Share plus estimated brokerage commissions, the Plan Agent will not make any further open-market purchases in connection with the reinvestment of such dividend or distribution. If the Plan Agent is unable to invest the full dividend or distribution amount through open-market purchases during the purchase period, the Plan Agent shall request that, with respect to the uninvested portion of such dividend or distribution amount, the Fund issue new Shares at the close of business on the earlier of the last day of the purchase period or the first day during the purchase period on which the net asset value per Share equals or is less than the market price per Share, plus estimated brokerage commissions, such Shares to be issued in accordance with the terms specified in the third paragraph hereof. These newly issued Shares will be valued at the then-current market price per Share at the time such Shares are to be issued.

For purposes of making the reinvestment purchase comparison under the Plan, (a) the market price of the Shares on a particular date shall be the last sales price on the New York Stock Exchange (or if the Shares are not listed on the New York Stock Exchange, such other exchange on which the Shares are principally traded) on that date, or, if there is no sale on such Exchange (or if not so listed, in the over-the-counter market) on that date, then the mean between the closing bid and asked quotations for such Shares on such Exchange on such date and (b) the net asset value per Share on a particular date shall be the net asset value per Share most recently calculated by or on behalf of the Fund. All dividends, distributions and other payments (whether made in cash or Shares) shall be made net of any applicable withholding tax.

Open-market purchases provided for above may be made on any securities exchange where the Fund’s Shares are traded, in the over-the-counter market or in negotiated transactions and may be on such terms as to price, delivery and otherwise as the Plan Agent shall determine. Each Participant’s uninvested funds held by the Plan Agent will not bear interest, and it is understood that, in any event, the Plan Agent shall have no liability in connection with any inability to purchase Shares within 30 days after the initial date of such purchase as herein provided, or with the timing of any purchases effected. The Plan Agent shall have no responsibility as to the value of the Shares acquired for each

26

Participant’s account. For the purpose of cash investments, the Plan Agent may commingle each Participant’s funds with those of other stockholders of the Fund for whom the Plan Agent similarly acts as agent, and the average price (including brokerage commissions) of all Shares purchased by the Plan Agent as Plan Agent shall be the price per Share allocable to each Participant in connection therewith.

The Plan Agent may hold each Participant’s Shares acquired pursuant to the Plan together with the Shares of other stockholders of the Fund acquired pursuant to the Plan in noncertificated form in the Plan Agent’s name or that of the Plan Agent’s nominee. The Plan Agent will forward to each Participant any proxy solicitation material and will vote any Shares so held for each Participant only in accordance with the instructions set forth on proxies returned by the Participant to the Fund.

The Plan Agent will confirm to each Participant each acquisition made for their account as soon as practicable but not later than 60 days after the date thereof. Although each Participant may from time to time have an undivided fractional interest (computed to three decimal places) in a Share, no certificates for a fractional Share will be issued. However, dividends and distributions on fractional Shares will be credited to each Participant’s account. In the event of termination of a Participant’s account under the Plan, the Plan Agent will adjust for any such undivided fractional interest in cash at the market value of the Shares at the time of termination, less the pro rata expense of any sale required to make such an adjustment.

Any Share dividends or split Shares distributed by the Fund on Shares held by the Plan Agent for Participants will be credited to their accounts. In the event that the Fund makes available to its stockholders rights to purchase additional Shares or other securities, the Shares held for each Participant under the Plan will be added to other Shares held by the Participant in calculating the number of rights to be issued to each Participant.

The Plan Agent’s service fee for handling capital gains and other distributions or income dividends will be paid by the Fund. Participants will be charged their pro rata share of brokerage commissions on all open-market purchases.

Each Participant may terminate their account under the Plan by notifying the Plan Agent in writing. Such termination will be effective immediately if the Participant’s notice is received by the Plan Agent not less than ten days prior to any dividend or distribution record date, otherwise such termination will be effective the first trading day after the payment date for such dividend or distribution with respect to any subsequent dividend or distribution. The Plan may be terminated by the Plan Agent or the Fund upon notice in writing mailed to each Participant at least 30 days prior to any record date for the payment of any dividend or distribution by the Fund.

These terms and conditions may be amended or supplemented by the Plan Agent or the Fund at any time or times but, except when necessary or appropriate to comply with applicable law or the rules or policies of the Securities and Exchange Commission or any other regulatory authority, only by mailing to each Participant appropriate written notice at least 30 days prior to the effective date thereof. The amendment or supplement shall be deemed to be accepted by each Participant unless, prior to the effective date thereof, the Plan Agent receives written notice of the termination of their account under the Plan. Any such amendment may include an appointment by the Plan Agent in its place and stead of a successor Plan Agent under these terms and conditions, with full power and authority to perform all or any of the acts to be performed by the Plan Agent under these terms and conditions. Upon any such appointment of any Plan Agent for the purpose of receiving dividends and distributions, the Fund will be authorized to pay to such successor Plan Agent, for each Participant’s account, all dividends and distributions payable on Shares held in their name or under the Plan for retention or application by such successor Plan Agent as provided in these terms and conditions.

The Plan Agent shall at all times act in good faith and agrees to use its best efforts within reasonable limits to ensure the accuracy of all services performed under this Agreement and to comply with applicable law, but assumes no responsibility and shall not be liable for loss or damage due to errors unless such error is caused by the Plan Agent’s negligence, bad faith, or willful misconduct or that of its employees. These terms and conditions are governed by the laws of the State of Maryland.

27

Reinvested dividends and distributions are taxed in the same manner as cash dividends and distributions — i.e., reinvestment in additional Shares does not relieve stockholders of, or defer the need to pay, any income tax that may be payable (or that is required to be withheld) on Fund dividends and distributions. Participants should contact their tax professionals for information on how the Plan impacts their personal tax situation. For additional information about the Plan, please contact the Plan Agent by telephone at 1-866-227-2136 or by mail at 6201 15th Avenue, Brooklyn, NY, 11219 or online at www.astfinancial.com.

Board Consideration of the Management Agreement

On an annual basis, the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Neuberger Berman Real Estate Securities Income Fund Inc. (the “Fund”), including the Directors who are not “interested persons” of the Fund or of Neuberger Berman Investment Advisers LLC (“Management”) (including its affiliates) (“Independent Fund Directors”), considers whether to continue the Fund’s management agreement with Management (the “Agreement”). Throughout the process, the Independent Fund Directors are advised by counsel that is experienced in Investment Company Act of 1940 matters and that is independent of Management (“Independent Counsel”). At a meeting held on October 11, 2018, the Board, including the Independent Fund Directors, approved the continuation of the Agreement for the Fund.

In evaluating the Agreement, the Board, including the Independent Fund Directors, reviewed extensive materials provided by Management in response to questions submitted by the Independent Fund Directors and Independent Counsel, and met with senior representatives of Management regarding its personnel, operations, and financial condition as they relate to the Fund. The annual contract review extends over at least two regular meetings of the Board to ensure that Management has time to respond to any questions the Independent Fund Directors may have on their initial review of the materials and that the Independent Fund Directors have time to consider those responses.

In connection with its deliberations, the Board also considered the broad range of information relevant to the annual contract review that is provided to the Board (including its various standing committees) at meetings throughout the year, including reports on investment performance, portfolio risk, and other portfolio information for the Fund, as well as periodic reports on, among other matters, pricing and valuation; quality and cost of portfolio trade execution; compliance; and stockholder and other services provided by Management and its affiliates. The Contract Review Committee, which is comprised of Independent Fund Directors, was established by the Board to assist in its deliberations regarding the annual contract review. The Board has also established other committees that focus throughout the year on specific areas relevant to the annual contract review, such as Fund performance or compliance matters, and that are charged with specific responsibilities regarding the annual contract review. Those committees provide reports to the Contract Review Committee and the full Board, which consider that information as part of the annual contract review process. The Board’s Contract Review Committee annually considers and updates the questions it asks of Management in light of legal advice furnished to them by Independent Counsel; their own business judgment; and developments in the industry, in the markets, in fund regulation and litigation, and in Management’s business model.

The Independent Fund Directors received from Independent Counsel a memorandum discussing the legal standards for their consideration of the proposed continuation of the Agreement. During the course of the year and during their deliberations regarding the annual contract review, the Contract Review Committee and the Independent Fund Directors met with Independent Counsel separately from representatives of Management.

Provided below is a description of the Board’s contract approval process and material factors that the Board considered at its meetings regarding renewals of the Agreement and the compensation to be paid thereunder. In connection with its approval of the continuation of the Agreement, the Board evaluated the terms of the Agreement, the overall fairness of the Agreement to the Fund, and whether the Agreement was in the best interests of the Fund and Fund stockholders. The Board’s determination to approve the continuation of the Agreement was based on a comprehensive consideration of all information provided to the Board throughout the year and specifically in connection with the annual contract review.

This description is not intended to include all of the factors considered by the Board. The Board members did not identify any particular information or factor that was all-important or controlling, and each Director may have attributed different weights to the various factors. The Board focused on the costs and benefits of the Agreement to the Fund and, through the Fund, its stockholders.

42

Nature, Extent, and Quality of Services

With respect to the nature, extent, and quality of the services provided, the Board considered the investment philosophy and decision-making processes of, and the qualifications, experience, and capabilities of, and the resources available to, the portfolio management personnel of Management who perform services for the Fund. The Board noted that Management also provides certain administrative services, including fund accounting and compliance services. The Board also considered Management’s policies and practices regarding brokerage, commissions and other trading costs, and allocation of portfolio transactions and reviewed the quality of the execution services that Management had provided. The Board also reviewed Management’s use of brokers to execute Fund transactions that provide research services to Management. Moreover, the Board considered Management’s approach to potential conflicts of interest both generally and between the Fund’s investments and those of other funds or accounts managed by Management. The Board also noted that Management had increased its research capabilities with respect to environmental, social, and corporate governance matters and how those factors may relate to investment performance.

The Board noted the extensive range of services that Management provides to the Fund beyond the investment management services. The Board noted that Management is also responsible for monitoring compliance with the Fund’s investment objectives, policies, and restrictions, as well as compliance with applicable law, including implementing rulemaking initiatives of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. In addition, the Board considered that Management has developed a leverage structure for the Fund tailored to its investment strategy and needs, has monitored the Fund’s ongoing compliance with legal and other restrictions associated with its leverage, and has recommended changes in and/or amendments to the amount or structure of its leverage over time. The Board considered that Management assumes significant ongoing risks with respect to the Fund, for which it is entitled to reasonable compensation. Specifically, Management’s responsibilities include continual management of investment, operational, enterprise, legal, regulatory, and compliance risks as they relate to the Fund, and the Board considers on a regular basis information regarding Management’s processes for monitoring and managing risk. In addition, the Board noted that when Management launches a new fund, it assumes entrepreneurial risk with respect to that fund, and that some funds have been liquidated without ever having been profitable to Management.

The Board also noted Management’s activities under its contractual obligation to oversee the Fund’s various outside service providers, including its renegotiation of certain service providers’ fees and its evaluation of service providers’ infrastructure, cybersecurity programs, compliance programs, and business continuity programs, among other matters. The Board also considered Management’s ongoing development of its own infrastructure and information technology to support the Fund through, among other things, cybersecurity, business continuity planning, and risk management. In addition, the Board noted the positive compliance history of Management, as no significant compliance problems were reported to the Board with respect to Management. The Board also considered the general structure of the portfolio managers’ compensation and whether this structure provides appropriate incentives to act in the best interests of the Fund. The Board also considered the ability of Management to attract and retain qualified personnel to service the Fund.

As in past years, the Board also considered the manner in which Management addressed various matters that arose during the year, some of them a result of developments in the broader fund industry or the regulations governing it. In addition, the Board considered actions taken by Management in response to recent market conditions and considered the overall performance of Management in this context. The Board also noted that Management actively monitors any discount from net asset value per share at which the Fund’s common stock trades and evaluates potential ways to reduce the discount, including tender offers programs, and potential impacts on the discount, including the level of distributions that the Fund pays. The Board likewise took into account that Management monitors, to the extent information is publicly available, events that may disrupt the Fund’s long-term investment program.

43

Fund Performance

The Board requested a report from an outside consulting firm that specializes in the analysis of fund industry data that compared the Fund’s performance, along with its fees and other expenses, to a group of industry peers and a broader universe of funds pursuing generally similar strategies with the same investment classification and/or objective. The Board considered the Fund’s performance and fees in light of the limitations inherent in the methodology for constructing such comparative groups and determining which investment companies should be included in the comparative groups.

With respect to investment performance, the Board considered information regarding the Fund’s short-, intermediate-and long-term performance, net of the Fund’s fees and expenses both on an absolute basis and relative to an appropriate benchmark index that does not deduct the fees or expenses of investing, compared to the performance of the industry peer group and a broader universe of funds, each constructed by the consulting firm. The Board also reviewed performance in relation to certain measures of the degree of investment risk undertaken by the portfolio managers.

The Board identified the Fund as having underperformed its benchmark index, industry peer group, and broader universe of funds to an extent, and over a period of time, that the Board felt warranted additional inquiry, and discussed with Management the Fund’s performance, potential reasons for the underperformance, and steps that Management had taken, or intended to take, to improve performance. The Board’s Closed-End Funds Committee also met with the portfolio managers of the Fund during the 12 months prior to voting on the contract renewal to discuss the Fund’s performance, distribution levels, and tender offer program. The Board also considered Management’s responsiveness with respect to the lagging performance. In this regard, the Board noted that performance, especially short-term performance, is only one of the factors that it deems relevant to its consideration of the Agreement and that, after considering all relevant factors, it may be appropriate to approve the continuation of the Agreement notwithstanding the Fund’s underperformance.

Fee Rates, Profitability, and Fall-out Benefits

With respect to the overall fairness of the Agreement, the Board considered the fee structure for the Fund under the Agreement as compared to the peer group provided by the consulting firm. The Board reviewed a comparison of the Fund’s management fee to a peer group of comparable funds. The Board noted that the comparative management fee analysis includes, in the Fund’s management fee, the separate administrative fees paid to Management. However, the Board noted that some funds in the peer group pay directly from fund assets for certain services that Management covers out of the administration fees for the Fund. Accordingly, the Board also considered the Fund’s total expense ratio as compared with its peer group as a way of taking account of these differences.

The Board considered the Fund’s contractual management fee on managed assets (generally consisting of net assets plus leverage proceeds) and the actual management fee on managed assets as a percentage of assets attributable to common stockholders as compared to the Fund’s peer group. The Board was aware of the additional expenses borne by common stockholders as a result of the Fund’s leveraged structure.

In concluding that the benefits accruing to Management and its affiliates by virtue of their relationship with the Fund were reasonable in light of the costs of providing the investment advisory and other services and the benefits accruing to the Fund, the Board reviewed specific data as to Management’s estimated profit on the Fund for a recent period on a pre-tax basis without regard to distribution expenses, including year-over-year changes in each of Management’s reported expense categories. (The Board also reviewed data on Management’s estimated profit on the Fund after distribution/servicing expenses and taxes were factored in, as indicators of the health of the business and the extent to which Management is directing its profits into the growth of the business.) The Board considered the cost allocation methodology that Management used in developing its estimated profitability figures. In 2017, the Board engaged an independent forensic accountant to review the profitability methodology utilized by Management when preparing this information and discussed with the consultant its conclusion that Management’s process for calculating and reporting its estimated profit was not unreasonable. Recognizing that there is no uniform methodology within the asset management

44

industry for determining profitability for this purpose and that the use of different reasonable methodologies can give rise to different profit and loss results, the Board requested from Management examples of profitability calculated by different methods and noted that the estimated profitability levels were still reasonable when calculated by these other methods. The Board further noted Management’s representation that its estimate of profitability is derived using methodology that is consistent with the methodology used to assess and/or report measures of profitability elsewhere at the firm. In addition, the Board recognized that Management’s calculations regarding its costs may not reflect all risks, including regulatory, legal, operational, reputational, and, where appropriate, entrepreneurial risks, associated with offering and managing a closed-end fund in the current regulatory and market environment. The Board also considered any fall-out (i.e., indirect) benefits likely to accrue to Management or its affiliates from their relationship with the Fund. The Board recognized that Management and its affiliates should be entitled to earn a reasonable level of profits for services they provide to the Fund and, based on its review, concluded that Management’s reported level of estimated profitability on the Fund was reasonable.

Information Regarding Services to Other Clients

The Board also considered whether there were other funds or separate accounts that were advised or sub-advised by Management or its affiliates with investment objectives, policies, and strategies that were similar to those of the Fund. The Board compared the fees charged to the Fund to the fees charged to such comparable funds and separate accounts. The Board considered the appropriateness and reasonableness of any differences between the fees charged to the Fund and such comparable funds and separate accounts, and determined that differences in fees and fee structures were consistent with the differences in the management and other services provided. The Board explored with Management its assertion that although, generally, the rates of fees paid by such accounts were lower than the fee rates paid by the corresponding Fund, the differences reflected Management’s greater level of responsibilities and significantly broader scope of services regarding the Fund, the more extensive regulatory obligations and risks associated with managing the Fund, and other financial considerations with respect to creation and sponsorship of the Fund.

Economies of Scale

The Board also evaluated apparent or anticipated economies of scale in relation to the services Management provides to the Fund. The Board noted that there is little expectation that closed-end funds will show significant economies of scale, as these funds do not typically sell additional shares or materially increase total assets by increasing leverage. The Board also considered that Management has provided, at no added cost to the Fund, certain additional services, including but not limited to, services required by new regulations or regulatory interpretations, services impelled by changes in the securities markets or the business landscape, and/or services requested by the Board. The Board considered that this is a way of sharing economies of scale with the Fund and its stockholders.

Fund Analysis

With regard to the investment performance of the Fund and the fees charged to the Fund, the Board considered the following information. The broader universe of funds referenced in this section was identified by the consulting firm, as discussed above, and the risk/return ratios referenced are the Sharpe ratios provided by the consulting firm. Due to underperformance for the periods reflected below, the Board considered the magnitude of that underperformance relative to the broader universe and the benchmark (e.g., the amount by which the Fund underperformed, including, for example, whether the Fund slightly underperformed or significantly underperformed its benchmark). With respect to performance quintile rankings for the Fund compared to its broader universe (“Performance Universe”), the first quintile represents the highest (best) performance and the fifth quintile represents the lowest performance. With respect to the rankings for fees and total expenses (net of waivers or other adjustments, if any) for the Fund compared to its peer group (“Expense Group”), the first ranking represents the lowest fees and/or total expenses and the fifth ranking represents the highest fees and/or total expenses.

The Board considered that, based on performance data for the periods ended December 31, 2017: (1) as compared to its benchmark, the Fund’s performance was lower for the 1-, 3-, 5-, and 10-year periods; and (2) as compared to its Performance Universe, the Fund’s performance was in the third quintile for the 1-year period, the fifth quintile for the 3-year period, and the fourth quintile for the 5- and 10-year periods. The Board considered that, as compared to its Expense Group, the Fund’s contractual management fee ranked first out of five funds, the actual management fee ranked first out of five funds, and total expenses ranked fourth out of five funds. In determining to renew the Agreement, the Board took into account Management’s representations regarding the effect that the cost of leverage had on the Fund’s total expenses relative to its peers with different leverage structures.

Conclusions

In approving the continuation of Agreement, the Board concluded that, in its business judgment, the terms of the Agreement are fair and reasonable to the Fund and that approval of the continuation of the Agreement is in the best interests of the Fund and its stockholders. In reaching this determination, the Board considered that Management could be expected to continue to provide a high level of service to the Fund; that the Board retained confidence in Management’s capabilities to manage the Fund; that the Fund’s fee structure appeared to the Board to be reasonable given the nature, extent, and quality of services provided; and that the benefits accruing to Management and its affiliates by virtue of their relationship with the Fund were reasonable in light of the costs of providing the investment advisory and other services and the benefits accruing to the Fund. The Board’s conclusions may be based in part on its consideration of materials prepared in connection with the approval or continuance of the Agreement in prior years and on the Board’s ongoing regular review of Fund performance and operations throughout the year, in addition to material prepared specifically for the most recent annual review of the Agreement.

Item 5. Audit Committee of Listed Registrants.

The Board has established a separately-designated standing audit committee established in accordance with Section 3(a)(58)(A) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (“Exchange Act").  Its members are Michael J.

(b) Not applicable.

Item 7. Disclosure of Proxy Voting Policies and Procedures for Closed-End Management Investment Companies.

As of October 31, 2018, the Board has delegated to Neuberger Berman Investment Advisers LLC (“NBIA”) the responsibility to vote proxies related to the securities held in the Registrant’s portfolio. Under this authority, NBIA is required by the Board to vote proxies related to portfolio securities in the best interests of the Registrant and its stockholders. The Board permits NBIA to contract with a third party to obtain proxy voting and related services, including research of current issues.

NBIA has implemented written Proxy Voting Policies and Procedures (“Proxy Voting Policy”) that are designed to reasonably ensure that NBIA votes proxies prudently and in the best interest

of its advisory clients for whom NBIA has voting authority, including the Registrant. The Proxy Voting Policy also describes how NBIA addresses any conflicts that may arise between its interests and those of its clients with respect to proxy voting.

NBIA’s Governance and Proxy Committee (“Proxy Committee”) is responsible for developing, authorizing, implementing and updating the Proxy Voting Policy, overseeing the proxy voting process and engaging and overseeing any independent third-party vendors as voting delegates to review, monitor and/or vote proxies. In order to apply the Proxy Voting Policy noted above in a timely and consistent manner, NBIA utilizes Glass, Lewis & Co. (“Glass Lewis”) to vote proxies in accordance with NBIA’s voting guidelines or, in instances where a material conflict has been determined to exist, in accordance with the voting recommendations of Glass Lewis.

NBIA retains final authority and fiduciary responsibility for proxy voting. NBIA believes that this process is reasonably designed to address material conflicts of interest that may arise between NBIA and a client as to how proxies are voted.

In the event that an investment professional at NBIA believes that it is in the best interests of a client or clients to vote proxies in a manner inconsistent with NBIA’s proxy voting guidelines, the Proxy Committee will review information submitted by the investment professional to determine that there is no material conflict of interest between NBIA and the client with respect to the voting of the proxy in that manner.

If the Proxy Committee determines that the voting of a proxy as recommended by the investment professional would not be appropriate, the Proxy Committee shall: (i) take no further action, in which case Glass Lewis shall vote such proxy in accordance with the proxy voting guidelines or as Glass Lewis recommends; (ii) disclose such conflict to the client or clients and obtain written direction from the client as to how to vote the proxy; (iii) suggest that the client or clients engage another party to determine how to vote the proxy; or (iv) engage another independent third party to determine how to vote the proxy.

Item 8. Portfolio Managers of Closed-End Management Investment Companies.

(a)(1) The followingPortfolio Managers have day-to-day management responsibility of the Registrant’s portfolio as of the date of the filing of this Form N-CSR.

Steve S. Shigekawa is a Managing Director of NBIA. He has been a co-portfolio manager of the Registrant since 2008 and was an associate portfolio manger of the Registrant from 2005 to 2008. Prior to that, he was an analyst with the Firm covering REIT securities beginning in 2002.

Brian Jones, CFA, is a Managing Director of NBIA. He has been a co-portfolio manager of the Registrant since 2008. After joining the Firm in 1999, he was an associate analyst. In 2003, he became an analyst covering REIT securities and was named an associate portfolio manager for separately managed accounts investing in REIT securities in 2007.

(a)(2) The table below describes the other accounts for which the Registrant’s Portfolio Managers have day-to-day management responsibility as of October 31, 2018.

***	Other Accounts include: Institutional Separate Accounts, Sub-Advised Accounts and Managed Accounts (WRAP Accounts).

Conflicts of Interest (as of October 31, 2018)

Actual or apparent conflicts of interest may arise when a Portfolio Manager has day-to-day management responsibilities with respect to more than one fund or other account. The management of multiple funds and accounts (including proprietary accounts) may give rise to actual or potential conflicts of interest if the funds and accounts have different or similar objectives, benchmarks, time horizons, and fees, as the Portfolio Manager must allocate his time and investment ideas across multiple funds and accounts.  A Portfolio Manager may execute transactions for another fund or account that may adversely impact the value of securities held by the Registrant, and which may include transactions that are directly contrary to the positions taken by the Registrant.  For example, a Portfolio Manager may engage in short sales of securities for another account that are the same type of securities in which the Registrant also invests.  In such a case, a Portfolio Manager could be seen as harming the performance of the Registrant for the benefit of the account engaging in short sales if the short sales cause the market value of the securities to fall.  Additionally, if a Portfolio Manager identifies a limited investment opportunity that may be suitable for more than one fund or other account, the Registrant may not be able to take full advantage of that opportunity.  Further, NBIA may take an investment position or action for a fund or account that may be different from, inconsistent with, or have different rights than (e.g., voting rights, dividend or repayment priorities or other features that may conflict with one another), an action or position taken for one or more other funds or accounts, including the Fund, having similar or different objectives.  A conflict may

also be created by investing in different parts of an issuer’s capital structure (e.g., equity or debt, or different positions in the debt structure).  Those positions and actions may adversely impact, or in some instances benefit, one or more affected accounts, including the Fund.  Potential conflicts may also arise because portfolio decisions and related actions regarding a position held for a fund or another account may not be in the best interests of a position held by another fund or account having similar or different objectives. If one account were to buy or sell portfolio securities shortly before another account bought or sold the same securities, it could affect the price paid or received by the second account.  Securities selected for funds or accounts other than the Registrant may outperform the securities selected for the Registrant.  Finally, a conflict of interest may arise if NBIA and a Portfolio Manager have a financial incentive to favor one account over another, such as a performance-based management fee that applies to one account but not the Registrant or other accounts for which the Registrant’s Portfolio Manager is responsible. In the ordinary course of operations certain businesses within the Neuberger Berman organization (the “Firm”) may seek access to material non-public information.  For instance, NBIA loan portfolio managers may utilize material non-public information in purchasing loans and from time to time, may be offered the opportunity on behalf of applicable clients to participate on a creditors committee, which participation may provide access to material non-public information.  The Firm maintains procedures that address the process by which material non-public information may be acquired intentionally by the Firm. When considering whether to acquire material non-public information, the Firm will take into account the interests of all clients and will endeavor to act fairly to all clients.  The intentional acquisition of material non-public information may give rise to a potential conflict of interest since the Firm may be prohibited from rendering investment advice to clients regarding the public securities of such issuer and thereby potentially limiting the universe of public securities that the Firm, including a Fund, may purchase or potentially limiting the ability of the Firm, including a Fund, to sell such securities.  Similarly, where the Firm declines access to (or otherwise does not receive) material non-public information regarding an issuer, the portfolio managers may base investment decisions for its clients, including a Fund, with respect to loan assets of such issuer solely on public information, thereby limiting the amount of information available to the portfolio managers in connection with such investment decisions.

NBIA and the Registrant have adopted certain compliance procedures which are designed to address these types of conflicts. However, there is no guarantee that such procedures will detect each and every situation in which a conflict arises.

(a)(3) Compensation (as of October 31, 2018)

Our compensation philosophy is one that focuses on rewarding performance and incentivizing our employees.  We are also focused on creating a compensation process that we believe is fair, transparent, and competitive with the market.

Compensation for Portfolio Managers consists of fixed (salary) and variable (bonus) compensation but is more heavily weighted on the variable portion of total compensation and is paid from a team compensation pool made available to the portfolio management team with which the Portfolio Manager is associated. The size of the team compensation pool is determined based on a formula that takes into consideration a number of factors including the pre-tax revenue that is generated by that particular portfolio management team, less certain adjustments.

The bonus portion of the compensation is discretionary and is determined on the basis of a variety of criteria, including investment performance (including the aggregate multi-year track record), utilization of central resources (including research, sales and operations/support), business building to further the longer term sustainable success of the investment team, effective team/people management, and overall contribution to the success of Neuberger Berman. Certain Portfolio Managers may manage products other than mutual funds, such as high net worth separate accounts.  For the management of these accounts, a Portfolio Manager may generally receive a percentage of pre-tax revenue determined on a monthly basis less certain deductions.  The percentage of revenue a Portfolio Manager receives pursuant to this arrangement will vary based on certain revenue thresholds.

The terms of our long-term retention incentives are as follows:

Employee-Owned Equity.

Certain employees (primarily senior leadership and investment professionals) participate in Neuberger Berman’s equity ownership structure, which was designed to incentivize and retain key personnel. We also offer an equity acquisition program which allows employees a more direct opportunity to invest in Neuberger Berman. In addition, in prior years certain employees may have elected to have a portion of their compensation delivered in the form of equity.

For confidentiality and privacy reasons, we cannot disclose individual equity holdings or program participation.

Contingent Compensation.  Certain employees may participate in the Neuberger Berman Group Contingent Compensation Plan (the “CCP”) to serve as a means to further align the interests of our employees with the success of the firm and the interests of our clients, and to reward continued employment. Under the CCP, up to 20% of a participant’s annual total compensation in excess of $500,000 is contingent and subject to vesting. The contingent amounts are maintained in a notional account that is tied to the performance of a portfolio of Neuberger Berman investment strategies as specified by the firm on an employee-by-employee basis. By having a participant’s contingent compensation tied to Neuberger Berman investment strategies, each employee is given further incentive to operate as a prudent risk manager and to collaborate with colleagues to maximize performance across all business areas. In the case of members of investment teams, including Portfolio Managers, the CCP is currently structured so that such employees have exposure to the investment strategies of their respective teams as well as the broader Neuberger Berman portfolio.

Restrictive Covenants.  Most investment professionals, including Portfolio Managers, are subject to notice periods and restrictive covenants which include employee and client non-solicit restrictions as well as restrictions on the use of confidential information. In addition, depending on participation levels, certain senior professionals who have received equity grants have also agreed to additional notice and transition periods and, in some cases, non-compete restrictions.
