This letter of transmittal is provided in connection with the Company’s offer dated December 22, 2023, to purchase up to 1,347,196 shares of its issued and outstanding common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Shares”), which amount represents 2.5% of the number of shares outstanding at the close of business on the last day of the prior fiscal year ended June 30, 2023. The price to be paid for the Shares in cash pursuant to this Offer will be the net asset value per Share (“NAV per Share”) as of January 31, 2024. The person(s) signing this Letter of Transmittal (the “Signatory”) hereby tender(s) to the Company, which is an externally managed, non-diversified, closed-end management investment company incorporated in Maryland, the number of Shares specified above for purchase by the Company at a price equal to the NAV per Share as of January 31, 2024 (the “Purchase Price”), in cash, under the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer to Purchase, receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, and in this Letter of Transmittal (which Offer to Purchase and Letter of Transmittal together with any amendments or supplements thereto collectively constitute the “Offer”). As an example of the Purchase Price, the NAV per Share on November 30, 2023, was $11.49 per Share. The Purchase Price may be higher or lower than this amount.

The name(s) and address(es) of the registered owner(s) should be printed exactly as on the application accepted by the Company in connection with the purchase of Shares.

The Signatory recognizes that, under certain circumstances as set forth in the Offer to Purchase, the Company may amend, extend or terminate the Offer or may not be required to purchase any of the Shares tendered hereby. In any such event, the Signatory understands that the Shares not purchased, if any, will continue to be held by the Signatory and will not be tendered.

The Signatory understands that acceptance of Shares by the Company for payment will constitute a binding agreement between the Signatory and the Company upon the terms and subject to the conditions of the Offer.

The Signatory understands that the payment of the Purchase Price for the Shares accepted for purchase by the Company will be made as promptly as practicable by the Company following the conclusion of the Offer and that in no event will the Signatory receive any interest on the Purchase Price.

All authority herein conferred or agreed to be conferred shall survive the death or incapacity of the Signatory and all obligations of the Signatory hereunder shall be binding upon the heirs, personal representatives, successors and assigns of the Signatory. Except as stated in the Offer, this tender is irrevocable.

The Signatory hereby acknowledges that capitalized terms not defined in this Letter of Transmittal shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Offer to Purchase.

Subject to, and effective upon, acceptance for payment of, or payment for, Shares tendered herewith in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions of the Offer (including, if the Offer is extended or amended, the terms or conditions of any such extension or amendment), the Signatory hereby sells, assigns and transfers to, or upon the order of, the Company, all right, title and interest in and to all of the Shares that are being tendered hereby that are purchased pursuant to the Offer, and hereby irrevocably constitutes and appoints the Company as attorney-in-fact of the Signatory with respect to such Shares, with full power of substitution (such power of attorney being deemed to be an irrevocable power coupled with an interest), to receive all benefits and otherwise exercise all rights of beneficial ownership of such Shares all in accordance with the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Offer.
