Neuberger Berman Income Opportunity Fund Inc. (NYSEAmex: NOX) has announced a distribution declaration of $0.0575 per share of common stock. The distribution announced today is payable on February 26, 2010, has a record date of February 16, 2010 and an ex-date of February 11, 2010.

The distribution of $0.0575 per share represents an increase of $0.0075 per share and, on an annualized basis as of January 28, 2010, is equivalent to 11.00% and 9.86% of the Fund’s closing market price per share and net asset value per share, respectively. Factors considered in increasing the Fund’s distribution rate included, among other things, the level of income being generated by the Fund’s investments, which has increased based on current portfolio composition and market conditions, particularly in the high yield bond portion of its portfolio, and the Fund’s current level of expenses.

Under its level distribution policy, the Fund anticipates that it will make regular monthly distributions, subject to market conditions, of $0.0575 per share, unless further action is taken to determine another amount. There is no assurance that the Fund will always be able to pay a distribution of any particular size, or that a distribution will consist of only net investment income. The Fund’s ability to maintain its current distribution rate will depend on a number of factors, including the stability of income received from its investments, availability of capital gains, the cost of leverage and the level of other Fund expenses.

The distribution announced today, as well as future distributions, may consist of net investment income, realized capital gains and return of capital. In compliance with Section 19 of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, a notice would be provided for any distribution that does not consist solely of net investment income. The notice would be for informational purposes, and would disclose, among other things, estimated portions of the distribution, if any, consisting of net investment income, capital gains and return of capital.
