ADJOURNED MEETING NOTICE: JOINT SPECIAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS
Dear Stockholder:
I am writing to ask for your vote on a matter of importance to your Fund, the
proposed merger of Neuberger Berman Realty Income Fund Inc. into Neuberger
Berman Real Estate Securities Income Fund Inc.
As explained more fully in the proxy materials sent to you in December, your
Fund's Board of Directors believes that the larger combined Fund will benefit
from efficiencies, from greater market liquidity for stockholders and, as one of
the largest funds in its class, from greater attention by analysts.
Unfortunately, the stockholder meeting called to approve the merger had to be
adjourned on Friday because we did not have sufficient votes to approve the
matter. We were close, and we plan to reconvene the meeting on Thursday,
February 7, 2008 at 9:00 a.m.
The Funds' records indicate that as of the record date for the meeting, November
29, 2007, you held shares of one or both of the Funds and, therefore, you are
entitled to vote on the proposed merger.
Voting promptly will help reduce your Fund's solicitation costs and will
eliminate your receiving follow-up phone calls or mailings. Your vote can be
cast quickly and easily by signing, dating and mailing the proxy card in the
enclosed postage-paid return envelope. You may also be able to vote by telephone
or Internet by following instructions on your proxy card.
THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF YOUR FUND RECOMMENDS THAT YOU VOTE FOR APPROVAL OF THE
MERGER
REMEMBER: Your vote is important, no matter how large or small your holdings may
be.
If you should have any questions regarding the meeting agenda or the execution
of your proxy, please call the Funds at 1-877-461-1899.
If we have not received your vote as February 7 approaches, you may receive a
call asking you to vote. GEORGESON INC. HAS BEEN RETAINED BY THE FUNDS TO MAKE
FOLLOW-UP PHONE CALLS TO HELP SECURE THE REMAINING VOTES NEEDED FOR THE MEETING.
Thank you in advance for your participation and your consideration in this
extremely important matter.
On behalf of your Boards of Directors,
/s/ Peter Sundman
Peter Sundman
Chairman of the Board
Neuberger Berman Realty Income Fund Inc.
Neuberger Berman Real Estate Securities Income Fund Inc.
