The Board of Directors has also authorized the Fund to decrease the amount of monthly dividends from $0.065 per common share to $0.0575 per common share beginning with the September dividend described above.

The Fund anticipates paying a monthly dividend of $0.0575 per common share, subject to market conditions and the requirement that the Fund maintains asset coverage of at least 200% of the Auction Rate Preferred Shares (“ARPS”) after payment of dividends. The amount of a monthly dividend, if any, may be more or less than the actual income earned by the Fund in a given month and the Board will continue to monitor the continuing appropriateness of the dividend level in light of market conditions and income earned by the Fund over time. In addition, during the last quarter of the year, the Board will consider the amount of undistributed net income remaining, if any, and may declare a special dividend.

Updated information on the amount of undistributed net income will continue to be included on the fact sheet available on the Fund’s website at www.pacholder.com. In the event that market conditions change such that the Fund would not meet its asset coverage requirements and/or is not able to declare or pay a dividend at the rate of $0.0575 per common share, shareholders will be notified.
