Bradley Adams Chief Executive Office Tortoise Power and Energy Infrastructure Fund, Inc. 5100 W. 115th Place Leawood, Kansas 66211 Dear Mr. Adams: This is in reply to your letter dated December 20, 2021 in which you assert that the proposal we submitted does not comply with certain requirements of Rule 14a-8. I am embarrassed to admit that I was not aware of the changes to Rule 14a-8 that were adopted in September 2020. Now that I am aware of them, please be advised that we would like to withdraw our original letter and proposal and we hereby submit the revised proposal and supporting statement italicized below pursuant to Rule 14a-8 for inclusion in management's proxy materials for the next meeting of stockholders for which this proposal is timely submitted. Special Opportunities Fund is the beneficial owner of shares of Tortoise Power and Energy Infrastructure Fund, Inc. (TPZ) with a value in excess of $25,000.00 and has held them continuously for more than one year. We plan to continue to hold them through the next meeting of shareholders. A letter verifying our continuous ownership accompanies this letter. I am currently available to meet with a representative of TPZ via teleconference (or in person but only in the New York City area) any time between 9 am and 5 pm Central Time on any business day from January 3, 2022 to January 14, 2022 but not January 4th after 12:30 pm CT or January 7th between noon and 2 pm CT. ******* RESOLVED: The shareholders of Tortoise Power and Energy Infrastructure Fund, Inc. (the Fund) request that the Board of Directors authorize a self-tender offer for all outstanding common shares of the Fund at or close to net asset value (NAV). If more than 50% of the Fund's outstanding common shares are submitted for tender, the Board is requested to cancel the tender offer and take those steps that the Board is required to take to cause the Fund to be liquidated or converted to (or merged with) an exchange traded fund (ETF) or an open-end mutual fund. SUPPORTING STATEMENT Since its IPO on July 28, 2009 through November 30, 2021, the Fund returned 4.88% per year based upon NAV but only 3.94% per year based upon market price. Thus, the discount has cost shareholders almost 1% per year over that time span. Over the past three years, the discount has averaged about 15%. In August 2021, the Board made a modest attempt to narrow the discount by adopting a managed distribution policy but shareholders seeking to sell shares still can only do so at a hefty discount from NAV. In addition, the Board of Directors has adopted certain arguably illegal anti-takeover measures to insulate itself from shareholders that are unhappy about the Fund's persistently wide discount. Consequently, we think it is appropriate for the Board to authorize a self-tender offer for the Fund's shares at or close to NAV to afford shareholders an opportunity to sell their shares at a price that is greater than the market price. If a majority of the Fund's outstanding common shares are tendered, that would demonstrate that there is insufficient shareholder support for continuing the Fund in its closed-end format. In that case, we think the tender offer should be cancelled and the Fund should be liquidated or converted into (or merged with) an ETF or an open-end mutual fund. If you agree that it is time to implement more effective measures to address the Fund's persistent discount, please vote for this (non-binding) proposal. ******* As you can see, we did not delete or change the sentence that you assert is "false or misleading with respect to [a] material fact." We think the anti-takeover measures that the board adopted in October 2020 constitute a factual foundation for it. Very truly yours, /s/ Phillip Goldstein Phillip Goldstein Chairman
