distributions will be made at year-end. The Section 19(a) notice
referenced below provides more information and can be found at
www.guggenheiminvestments.com.
Past performance is not indicative of future
performance. As of this announcement, the sources of each
fund distribution are estimates. Distributions may be paid from
sources of income other than ordinary income, such as short-term
capital gains, long-term capital gains or return of capital. Unless
otherwise noted, the distributions above are not anticipated to
include a return of capital. If a distribution consists of
something other than ordinary income, a Section 19(a) notice
detailing the anticipated source(s) of the distribution will be
made available. The Section 19(a) notice will be posted to a Fund’s
website and to the Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation so
that brokers can distribute such notices to Shareholders of the
Fund. Section 19(a) notices are provided for informational purposes
only and not for tax reporting purposes. The final determination of
the source and tax characteristics of all distributions in 2018
will be made after the end of the year. This information is not
legal or tax advice. Consult a professional regarding your specific
legal or tax matters.
