Each Fund intends to make regular monthly distributions based on
the past and projected performance of the Fund. The amount of
monthly distributions may vary, depending on a number of factors.
As portfolio and market conditions change, the rate of
distributions on the common shares may change. There can be no
assurance that a Fund will be able to declare a distribution in
each period. Past performance is no guarantee of future
results.
The tax treatment and characterization of a Fund’s distributions
may vary significantly from time to time depending on the net
investment income of the Fund and whether the Fund has realized
gains or losses from its options strategy versus gain or loss
realizations in the equity securities in the portfolio. Each Fund's
distributions will normally reflect past and projected net
investment income, and may include income from dividends and
interest, capital gains and/or a return of capital.
The portion of each Fund's monthly distributions estimated to
come from the Fund's option strategy, for tax purposes, may be
treated as a combination of long-term and short-term capital gains,
and/or a return of capital. The tax character of each Fund's option
strategy is largely determined by movements in, and gain and loss
realizations in the underlying equity portfolio. Under certain
conditions, federal tax regulations may also cause some or all of
the return of capital to be taxed as ordinary income. The final tax
characteristics of the distributions cannot be determined with
certainty until after the end of the calendar year, and will be
reported to shareholders at that time.
Monthly Distributions
IGD estimates that for the current fiscal year as of May
31, 2020, approximately 30% of each distribution is characterized
as net investment income and 70% is characterized as return of
capital.
IID estimates that for the current fiscal year as of May
31, 2020, approximately 36% of each distribution is characterized
as net investment income and 64% is characterized as return of
capital.
Quarterly Distributions
IAE estimates that for the current fiscal year as of
March 31, 2020, approximately 6% of each distribution is
characterized as net investment income and 94% is characterized as
return of capital.
IHD estimates that for the current fiscal year as of
March 31, 2020, approximately 8% of each distribution is
characterized as net investment income and 92% is characterized as
return of capital.
IRR estimates that for the current fiscal year as of
March 31, 2020, approximately 32% of each distribution is
characterized as net investment income and 68% is characterized as
return of capital.
Shares of closed-end funds often trade at a discount from their
net asset value. The market price of Fund shares may vary from net
asset value based on factors affecting the supply and demand for
shares, such as Fund distribution rates relative to similar
investments, investors' expectations for future distribution
changes, the clarity of the Fund's investment strategy and future
return expectations, and investors' confidence in the underlying
markets in which the Fund invests. Fund shares are subject to
investment risk, including possible loss of principal invested. No
Fund is a complete investment program and you may lose money
investing in a Fund. An investment in a Fund may not be appropriate
for all investors. Before investing, prospective investors should
consider carefully the Fund's investment objective, risks, charges
and expenses.
Certain statements made on behalf of the Funds in this release
are forward-looking statements. The Funds’ actual future results
may differ significantly from those anticipated in any
forward-looking statements due to numerous factors, including but
not limited to a decline in value in equity markets in general or
the Funds’ investments specifically. Neither the Funds nor Voya
Investment Management undertake any responsibility to update
publicly or revise any forward-looking statement.
This information should not be used as a basis for legal and/or

the guidance and advice of their own legal and tax counsel.
