How does the Board recommend that I vote?
➣ The Board, including the independent Board Members, unanimously recommends a vote "FOR" the Board’s experienced, qualified, and diverse nominees, who have approved initiatives that have helped all shareholders, like share repurchases, using the WHITE proxy card. ➣ Please do NOT send back any proxy card you may receive from Saba, even to withhold votes on Saba’s nominees, as this will cancel your prior vote for the Board Nominees. Only your latest dated proxy will count at the meeting. ➣ If you have already sent back the proxy card you received from Saba, you can still change your vote by promptly completing, signing, dating and returning the WHITE proxy card, which will replace the proxy card you previously completed.
