The truth about Saba Setting the record straight Saba has made numerous unsubstantiated claims about BlackRock, your Fund, and your
Boardbut they do not add up. Myth Saba claims that its actions are in the best interest of CEF shareholders Reality Saba has chosen to use its vast resources to buy large stakes in closed-end funds (CEF), engage in costly proxy fights, and
force actions that provide Saba with a quick profit for themselves at your expense. Myth Saba claims arent delivering results for investors Reality BlackRock CEFs have delivered consistent long-term value over time, generating $3.6 billion in
gains in 2023 alone while paying shareholders $3.1 billion per year via dividends 3. We have also repurchased $1.3 billion in shares, generating over $200 million in gains4.Myth Saba claims to be a better CEF manager than BlackRock Reality BlackRock
has a 35+ year track record of delivering long-term value for CEF shareholders. At the funds Saba has taken over (BRW, SABA), shareholders are now exposed to riskier strategies, leaving them with a fund that no longer serves their original goals, as
well as higher management fees. Sabas CEF track is marked by failure and underperformance5:BRWTotal Shareholder Return5 BRW Morningstar US CEF Bank Loans BlackRock Bank Loans Funds Median 13.4% Since takeover (6/4/2021 18.0% 5/24/2024)
