THE OFFER TO PURCHASE WILL EXPIRE AT 11:59 P.M., EASTERN TIME
ON JUNE 17, 2019, UNLESS THE OFFER IS EXTENDED.

THIS OFFER IS SUBJECT TO IMPORTANT TERMS AND CONDITIONS, INCLUDING THE CONDITIONS LISTED UNDER "CERTAIN CONDITIONS OF THE OFFER."

NEITHER THE U.S. SECURITIES AND EXCHANGE COMMISSION (THE "COMMISSION") NOR ANY STATE SECURITIES COMMISSION HAS APPROVED OR DISAPPROVED OF THIS OFFER, PASSED UPON THE FAIRNESS OR MERITS OF THE OFFER OR DETERMINED WHETHER THIS OFFER TO PURCHASE IS ACCURATE OR COMPLETE. ANY REPRESENTATION TO THE CONTRARY IS A CRIME.

To the Shareholders of Aberdeen Emerging Markets Equity Income Fund, Inc.:

Aberdeen Emerging Markets Equity Income Fund, Inc., a non-diversified closed-end management investment company incorporated under the laws of the state of Maryland (the "Fund"), is offering to purchase, upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Offer to Purchase and the related Letter of Transmittal, up to 8,956,196 (approximately 15%) of its issued and outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the "Shares"). As of May 13, 2019, 59,707,975 Shares were outstanding. The offer is to purchase Shares for cash (subject to any applicable withholding taxes and brokerage fees), subject to adjustment for fractional shares, at a price equal to 98% of the net asset value ("NAV") per Share determined as of the close of the regular trading session of the NYSE American, the principal market on which the Shares are traded, on the business day immediately following the day the offer expires or, if the offer is extended, on the business day immediately following the day to which the offer is extended (the "Purchase Pricing Date"). The offer is being made upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Offer to Purchase and the related Letter of Transmittal (which, together with any amendments or supplements thereto, collectively constitute the "Offer").

The Offer will expire at 11:59 p.m., Eastern time on June 17, 2019, unless the Fund, in its sole discretion, extends the period during which the Offer is open, in which case the Offer shall expire as so extended by the Fund (the "Expiration Date"). The Shares are traded on the NYSE American under the symbol "AEF". The NAV as of the close of the regular trading session of the NYSE American on May 13, 2019 was $7.78 per Share and the last reported sale price on the NYSE American on such date for a Share was $7.10. Until the Offer expires, NAV quotations can be obtained from AST Fund Solutions, LLC (the "Information Agent") by calling (800) 467-0743 between the hours of 9:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m., Eastern time, Monday through Friday (except holidays).

IF YOU ARE NOT INTERESTED IN SELLING ANY OF YOUR SHARES AT THIS TIME, YOU DO NOT NEED TO DO ANYTHING. THE OFFER IS NOT PART OF A PLAN TO LIQUIDATE THE FUND. SHAREHOLDERS ARE NOT REQUIRED TO PARTICIPATE IN THE OFFER. SHAREHOLDERS WISHING TO SELL SHARES SHOULD CONSIDER WHETHER PARTICIPATING IN THE OFFER, IN LIGHT OF THE ASSOCIATED TRANSACTION COSTS DESCRIBED IN THIS OFFER TO PURCHASE, IS COST-EFFECTIVE VERSUS SELLING SHARES ON THE NYSE AMERICAN.

YOU MAY CHOOSE TO SELL YOUR SHARES ON THE NYSE AMERICAN AT THE PREVAILING MARKET PRICE (WHICH LIKELY WILL DIFFER FROM THE PURCHASE PRICE OF THE OFFER) AT ANY TIME.

The Fund will pay all administrative charges and expenses related to the Offer.

Exhibit 99.(a)(1)(vi)

Dear Shareholder,

As you may be aware, [ACQUIRED FUND] (“XXX”) reorganized (the “Reorganization”) into Aberdeen Chile Fund, Inc., which changed its name to Aberdeen Emerging Markets Equity Income Fund, Inc. (“AEF”), effective as of the close of business April 27, 2018 (the “Effective Time”).

On May 8, 2019, the Board of Directors of AEF approved a tender offer for shares of AEF’s common stock. The enclosed Letter of Transmittal allows you to exchange your XXX shares and/or tender your AEF shares in the tender offer.

As a result of the Reorganization, each share of XXX common stock owned by you at the Effective Time was automatically converted into the right to receive X.XX shares of common stock of AEF and a cash payment in lieu of the issuance of any fractional shares (the “Consideration”). You must exchange your XXX shares in order to receive the Consideration, and any future dividends or distributions the Board of Directors may declare. Please note that if you also hold shares of XXX stock in uncertificated form, they will be automatically exchanged upon the presentation of your XXX stock certificate(s), see “XXX Shares Held in Book Entry by Us” on the Letter of Transmittal. Please note you may not participate in the tender offer without exchanging your XXX shares.

As noted above, AEF is commencing an offer to purchase up to 15% of its issued and outstanding shares upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the enclosed Offer to Purchase and the related Letter of Transmittal (which together constitute the “Offer”). The Offer is for cash at a price equal to 98% of AEF’s net asset value per share (“NAV”) as of the close of ordinary trading on the NYSE American on the day after the Offer expires (as described below). The deadline for participating in the Offer is June 17, 2019 (the “Tender Offer Deadline”). The NAV of AEF shares may fluctuate between the Tender Offer Deadline and June 18, 2019, the pricing date for the Offer.

As of May 13, 2019, AEF’s NAV per share was $7.78, and 59,707,975 shares were issued and outstanding. AEF computes its NAV on a daily basis. AEF’s NAV and the market price of AEF’s common stock may be obtained by contacting AST Fund Solutions, LLC, AEF’s Information Agent (the “Information Agent”), toll free at (800) 467-0743.

The Offer is designed to provide shareholders of AEF with the opportunity to redeem some or all of their shares at a price very close to NAV should they wish to do so. Neither AEF, Aberdeen Asset Managers Limited, AEF’s investment adviser, or AEF’s Board of Directors is making any recommendation to any shareholder whether to tender or refrain from tendering shares in the Offer. AEF and the Board of Directors urge each shareholder to read and evaluate the Offer and related materials carefully and make his or her own decision. Questions, requests for assistance and requests for additional copies of this Offer to Purchase and related materials should be directed to the Information Agent toll free at (800) 467-0743.

Such steps shall include the filing of a proxy statement to modify certain investment policies and restrictions of the Acquiring Fund and to approve the issuance of shares in connection with the Reorganization. The Acquiring Fund shall also file prospectus/proxy statements to be used to solicit the requisite approval of the Target Funds. The Acquiring Fund shall seek to close the Reorganization with respect to each Target Fund during the first calendar quarter of 2018, although the timing of the various closings could be delayed but not later than the end of the second calendar quarter.

(b) As soon as practicable following the Reorganization with respect to each Target Fund, the Acquiring Fund shall conduct a tender offer to purchase a percentage (the “Tender Amount”) of its outstanding common shares (the “Tender Offer”),

such amount to be determined by the Board of the Acquiring Fund, but which shall not be less than an amount which in combination with the distributions then estimated to be required to be distributed in 2018 to maintain the Acquiring Fund’s status as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 results in a reduction of the Acquiring Fund’s net assets by at least 40% with a maximum distribution of 50%. The Tender Offer shall include the following terms: (i) shareholders shall have the opportunity to tender some or all of their common shares at a price equal to 99% of the Acquiring Fund’s net asset value per share (“NAV”) as determined as of the close of the regular trading session of the NYSE MKT on the next day after the expiration date of the Tender Offer or, if the Tender Offer is extended, on the next day after the day to which the Tender Offer is extended, (ii) the Acquiring Fund shall purchase common shares properly tendered and not withdrawn on a prorated basis up to the Tender Amount if greater than the Tender Amount of common shares are properly tendered and not properly withdrawn, (iii) the consideration to be paid by the Acquiring Fund for common shares under the Tender Offer shall consist solely of cash, and (iv) if less than the Tender Amount of common shares have been properly tendered and not withdrawn, then the Acquiring Fund shall only be obligated to purchase such amount of shares actually tendered.

(d) The Tender Offer shall require odd lot tenders to be subject to the same proration terms as tenders of 100 shares or more.

(e) Although the Acquiring Fund has committed to conduct the Tender Offer under the circumstances set forth above, the Fund will not commence the Tender Offer or accept tenders of the Fund’s common shares during any period when (i) such transactions, if consummated, would: (A) result in the delisting of the Acquiring Fund’s shares from the NYSE MKT or (B) impair the Acquiring Fund’s status as a regulated investment company under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”); (ii) there is any (A) legal or regulatory action or proceeding instituted or threatened challenging such transaction, (B) suspension of or limitation on prices for trading securities generally on the NYSE or other national securities exchange(s), including the National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotation System (“NASDAQ”) National Market System, or (C) declaration of a banking moratorium by federal or state authorities or any suspension of payment by banks in the United States; or (iii) the Board of Directors of the Acquiring Fund (the “Fund Board”) determines in good faith and upon the written opinion of counsel, that effecting any such transaction during the period would constitute a breach of its fiduciary duty owed to the Acquiring Fund or its shareholders. In the event of a delay pursuant to any of clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) above, the Acquiring Fund will provide prompt written notice to CoL together with a detailed written analysis stating the reason for such delay and reasonable support for such determination. In the event of a delay pursuant to either of clauses (i) or (ii) above, the Acquiring Fund will commence

the Tender Offer as soon as practicable and no later than 20 days after the termination of such delaying event.

(f) The Acquiring Fund shall not issue any common shares or any securities exchangeable or convertible into common shares prior to the payment of the Tender Offer proceeds.

1.2. CoL covenants and agrees to tender, or caused to be tendered, 100% of the common shares of the Acquiring Fund of which it is the beneficial owner (as such term is used in Rule 13d-3 under the Exchange Act) in the Tender Offer. For the avoidance of doubt, and without limiting the generality of the foregoing, CoL covenants and agrees to tender, or caused to be tendered, all common shares of the Acquiring Fund owned, controlled or held by CoL and its principals, general partners, managing members, affiliated persons (as defined in the 1940 Act and which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall include (without limitation) any account or pooled investment vehicle now or in the future managed, advised or sub-advised by CoL or its affiliated persons) (all such persons, collectively, the “CoL Entities”) as of the closing of the Tender Offer. The CoL Entities, together with the directors, officers and employees of CoL, are collectively referred to herein as the “CoL Affiliates”.

Section 2. Additional Agreements.

2.1. CoL covenants and agrees that:

(a) CoL will cause all shares it and the CoL Entities beneficially own as of the record date for a shareholder meeting to be counted as present for purposes of a quorum at any annual or special meeting of shareholders of a Fund held on or prior to December 31, 2019;

(b) CoL will cause all shares it and the CoL Entities beneficially own as of the record date for a shareholder meeting to be voted in favor of all Director nominees and proposals presented at the 2018 special and/or annual general meetings to effect the Reorganization; and

(c) From the date of this Agreement through December 31, 2019, CoL will cause all shares it and the CoL Entities beneficially own as of the record date for a shareholder meeting to be voted in favor of any Director nominee with respect to which the Board recommends a vote in favor and against any proposal or Director nominee with respect to which the Board recommends a vote against.

For the avoidance of doubt, CoL or any of the CoL Entities shall not affirmatively lend any common shares of a Fund to any third party for the purpose of avoiding compliance with the terms hereof, and CoL (or the CoL Entities other than separately managed accounts, as applicable), to the extent practicable, shall recall any such stock loan in advance of the record date for any vote of or consent by the shareholders of the Fund so that CoL shall have full voting rights with respect to all such loaned shares.

2.2. The Board of the Acquiring Fund covenants and agrees that

(a) the Acquiring Fund’s Post-Reorganization total annualized expense ratio will not exceed 120 basis points during the period commencing on the closing of the Reorganization and ending on December 31, 2019 (excluding: leverage cost, tax and non-routine/exceptional expenses); and

(b) the Acquiring Fund will establish a targeted discount policy which will seek to manage the Fund’s discount by:

· the Board of the Acquiring Fund adopting one or more resolutions as necessary, committing to buying back shares of common stock in the open market at times when the Fund’s shares trade at a discount of 10% or more to NAV; and

· if the average discount exceeds 11% over any rolling twelve (12) month period commencing on the closing of the Reorganization and ending on December 31, 2019, the Board will undertake a 15% tender offer; provided that the Fund shall not be required to conduct more than one tender offer under this 2.2(b) prior to December 31, 2019.

2.3. CoL represents and warrants as follows:

(a) This Agreement has been duly and validly authorized, executed and delivered by it and is enforceable against CoL in accordance with its terms.

3.2. This Agreement remains in full force and effect until the earliest of:
