Item 3.

SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION

Funds for the purchase of the Common Shares were derived from the subscription proceeds from investors and the capital appreciation thereon and margin account borrowings made in the ordinary course of business.  In such instances, the positions held in the margin accounts are pledged as collateral security for the repayment of debit balances in the account, which may exist from time to time.  Since other securities are held in the margin accounts, it is not possible to determine the amounts, if any, of margin used to purchase the Common Shares reported herein. A total of approximately $90,611,858 was paid to acquire the Common Shares reported herein.

Item 4 is hereby amended and supplemented as follows:

Previously, on June 29, 2023, Saba Capital Master Fund, Ltd. and Saba Capital Management, L.P. (the “Saba Parties”), filed the Complaint in the United States District Court’s Southern District of New York (the “Court”) against the Issuer, among others, seeking to invalidate as unlawful under the Investment Company Act of 1940, provisions in the Issuer’s (and others) governing documents purporting to strip voting rights with respect to a shareholder’s acquisition of shares constituting as little as 10% of the Issuer’s voting power (the “Vote Stripping Provisions”).

On December 5, the Court granted summary judgement to the Saba Parties and declared the Vote Stripping Provisions to be in violation of the Section 18(i) of the Investment Company Act and ordered rescission of the Vote Stripping Provisions.
