As previously announced, each fund conducted a tender offer for up to 10 percent of its outstanding common shares for cash at a price per share equal to 98 percent of the net asset value per share determined on the expiration date. Each fund’s tender offer, which expired at 5:00 p.m. Eastern time on Friday, September 19, 2014, was oversubscribed. Because the number of shares tendered exceeded the number of shares the funds offered for purchase, each fund will purchase the maximum percentage of its respective outstanding common shares on a pro-rata basis in accordance with the number of shares tendered by each shareholder and the terms of the Offer to Purchase.

Based on preliminary information, the following number of common shares of each fund were tendered:

NZF:

  

18,623,127 shares tendered, representing approximately 46.1% of the fund’s common shares outstanding
