IMPORTANT INFORMATION

Investments in funds involve risk. The fund involves additional risks due to its narrow focus. There are special risks associated with investment in real estate, including credit risk, interest rate fluctuations and the impact of varied economic conditions.

Shares of common stock of closed-end funds, unlike open-end funds, are not continuously offered. There is a one time public offering and, once issued, shares of common stock of closed-end funds are traded in the open market generally through a stock exchange. Common shares of closed-end funds frequently trade at a discount to net asset value. The price of common shares is determined by a number of factors, several of which are beyond the control of the fund. Therefore, the fund cannot predict whether its common shares will trade at, below, or above net asset value.

This press release shall not constitute an offer to sell or a solicitation to buy, nor shall there be any sale of fund securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such offer or solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the laws of such state or jurisdiction.

Management does not undertake any obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.

The following factors, among others, could cause actual results to differ materially from forward-looking statements: (i) the ability of the Funds to obtain any required shareholder approvals; (ii) the need to obtain any necessary regulatory approvals; (iii) the effects of changes in market and economic conditions; (iv) other legal and regulatory developments; and (v) other additional risks and uncertainties.
