WE URGE YOU TO VOTE ON OUR BLUE PROXY CARD FOR THE ELECTION OF OUR NOMINEES AND FOR THE PROPOSAL TO REPEAL ANY PROVISION OF, OR AMENDMENT TO, THE BYLAWS ADOPTED BY THE BOARD WITHOUT SHAREHOLDER APPROVAL SUBSEQUENT TO JULY 9, 2021.
According to the Fund’s Amendment No. 28 to its definitive proxy statement, the record date for the adjourned 2021 Annual Meeting remains June 9, 2021. Shareholders who have already voted do not need to recast their votes unless they wish to change their votes. Proxies previously submitted will be voted at the reconvened meeting unless properly revoked. Shareholders who have not already voted are encouraged to do so promptly using the instructions provided in their voting instruction form or proxy card.
REVOCATION OF PROXIES
If you are a shareholder of record, you may change your proxy instructions or revoke your proxy at any time before your proxy is voted at the 2021 Annual Meeting. Proxies may be revoked by any of the following actions:
| ● | signing, dating and returning the enclosed BLUE Proxy Card (the latest dated proxy is the one that counts); |
| ● | submitting a proxy with new voting instructions using the internet or telephone voting system as indicated on the BLUE Proxy Card; |
| ● | delivering a written notice of revocation or a later dated proxy for the 2021 Annual Meeting to Ocean Capital LLC, c/o Sodali & Co, 430 Park Avenue, 14th Floor, New York, NY 10022, or to the secretary of the Fund; or |
| ● | registering for, attending and voting at the 2021 Annual Meeting (although attendance at the 2021 Annual Meeting will not, by itself, revoke a proxy). |
If your shares are held in a brokerage account by a broker, bank or other nominee, you should follow the instructions provided by your broker, bank or other nominee. If you attend the 2021 Annual Meeting and you beneficially own shares but are not the record owner, your mere attendance at the 2021 Annual Meeting WILL NOT be sufficient to revoke your prior given proxy. You must have written authority from the record owner (e.g., by obtaining a legal proxy) to vote your shares held in its name at the 2021 Annual Meeting.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION AND WHERE TO FIND IT
Shareholders can obtain copies of Ocean Capital’s definitive proxy statement, any amendments or supplements to the proxy statement, and other documents filed by Ocean Capital with the SEC for no charge at the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov.
