To Our Stockholders,

For the six months ended June 30, 2024, the net asset value (NAV) total return of The Gabelli Multimedia Trust Inc. (the Fund) was 0.9%, compared with a total return of 20.6% for the Morgan Stanley Capital International (MSCI) AC World Communication Services Index. The total return for the Fund's publicly traded shares was 4.0%. The Fund's NAV per share was $3.32, while the price of the publicly traded shares closed at $5.36 on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE). See page 3 for additional performance information.

Enclosed are the financial statements, including the schedule of investments, as of June 30, 2024.

Investment Objective and Strategy (Unaudited)

The Gabelli Multimedia Trust is a diversified, closed-end management investment company whose primary objective is long term growth of capital, with income as a secondary objective. The Fund seeks opportunities for long term growth within the context of two main investment universes: companies involved in creativity, as it relates to the development of intellectual property rights (copyrights); and companies involved in distribution as it relates to the delivery of these copyrights. Additionally, the Fund will invest in companies participating in emerging technological advances in interactive services and products.

As permitted by regulations adopted by the Securities and Exchange Commission, paper copies of the Fund's annual and semiannual shareholder reports will no longer be sent by mail, unless you specifically request paper copies of the reports. Instead, the reports will be made available on the Fund's website (www.gabelli.com), and you will be notified by mail each time a report is posted and provided with a website link to access the report. If you already elected to receive shareholder reports electronically, you will not be affected by this change and you need not take any action. To elect to receive all future reports on paper free of charge, please contact your financial intermediary, or, if you invest directly with the Fund, you may call 800-422-3554 or send an email request to [email protected].

Performance Discussion (Unaudited)

The Walt Disney Company (+36%) was the largest contributor to first quarter returns as returning CEO Bob Iger successfully refocused the company. While an activist campaign by Trian failed to seat any insurgent Board nominees, they did succeed in highlighting the discount in the stock and the opportunities ahead. Two of the largest music platforms in the world, Spotify (+40%) and China's Tencent Music Entertainment (+24%), rebounded strongly as they broadened their sources of content. Finally, the Fund owned several constituents of the Magnificent 7 that performed well, including Meta (+37%), Alphabet (+8%), and Amazon (+19%). Beyond Disney, most traditional media companies faced secular (cord cutting and fixed/wireless substitution) and cyclical (advertising and household formation) pressure during the quarter. Among these companies were Warner Bros. Discovery (-23%) and distributor Charter Communications (-25%), along with Charter's 26% owner Liberty Broadband (K:-29%; A:-29%). However, Sony Group (-9%) was by far the largest detractor after cutting guidance for sales of its PlayStation 5 game console.

The trends of 2023 - a market dominated by mega-cap technology driven names and the general avoidance of leveraged companies, particularly those with negative consumer engagement trends - carried into the first half of 2024. The Fund has exposure to both dynamics, but thankfully a large weighting in some of the so-called Magnificent Seven. Indeed, the largest contributors to second quarter returns included Alphabet (4.2% of total investments as of June 30, 2024), Apple (1.8%), and Meta (2.4%). The Fund also benefited from long held positions in United States Cellular (1.2%) and its 83% controlling shareholder Telephone & Data Systems (0.6%). In May, United States Cellular announced the sale of its wireless customers to T-Mobile (1.9%) for $4.4 billion, leaving substantial upside in the eventual monetization of its tower, spectrum, and partnership assets. The Walt Disney Company (1.1%) was the largest detractor in the second quarter. After Disney rebuffed an activist challenge, the focus returned to profitably growing its streaming business while maintaining advertising and theme park visitation amidst constrained consumer spending. Comcast (2.4%), which generates a meaningful portion of its revenue from advertising and parks, declined for similar reasons and continued concerns over the state of broadband competition. Finally, Liberty SiriusXM (1.1%) fell ahead of its highly anticipated split-off from the Liberty Media tracker group and merger with SiriusXM.

Thank you for your investment in The Gabelli Multimedia Trust Inc.

We appreciate your confidence and trust.

†† Based on market value per share, adjusted for reinvestment of distributions at prices determined under the Fund's dividend reinvestment plan and adjustments for the rights offering. Total return for a period of less than one year is not annualized.
* Based on year to date book income. Amounts are subject to change and recharacterization at year end.
(a) Includes income resulting from special dividends. Without these dividends, the per share income amount would have been $(0.00) and $0.02 and the net investment income ratio would have been (0.07)% and 0.20% for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and the year ended December 31, 2019, respectively.
(b) Calculated based on average common shares outstanding on the record dates throughout the periods.
(c) Amount represents less than $0.005 per share.
(d) Annualized.
(e) The Fund received credits from a designated broker who agreed to pay certain Fund operating expenses. Had such payments not been made, this expense ratio for the six months ended June 30, 2024 and the year ended December 31, 2022 would have been 2.43% and 2.11%.

Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited)

1. Organization. The Gabelli Multimedia Trust Inc. (the Fund) was incorporated on March 31, 1994 in Maryland. Although the Fund is registered as a non-diversified fund, it has operated as a diversified fund for over three years. Therefore, the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act) obliges the Fund to continue to operate as a diversified fund unless the Fund obtains shareholder approval to operate as a non-diversified fund. The Fund commenced investment operations on November 15, 1994.

The Fund's investment objective is long term growth of capital. The Fund will invest at least 80% of its assets, under normal market conditions, in common stock and other securities, including convertible securities, preferred stock, options, and warrants of companies in the telecommunications, media, publishing, and entertainment industries (the 80% Policy). The 80% Policy may be changed without stockholder approval. The Fund will provide stockholders with notice at least sixty days prior to the implementation of any change in the 80% Policy.

2. Significant Accounting Policies. As an investment company, the Fund follows the investment company accounting and reporting guidance, which is part of U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) that may require the use of management estimates and assumptions in the preparation of its financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements.

Security Valuation. Portfolio securities listed or traded on a nationally recognized securities exchange or traded in the U.S. over-the-counter market for which market quotations are readily available are valued at the last quoted sale price or a market's official closing price as of the close of business on the day the securities are being valued. If there were no sales that day, the security is valued at the average of the closing bid and asked prices or, if there were no asked prices quoted on that day, then the security is valued at the closing bid price on that day. If no bid or asked prices are quoted on such day, the security is valued at the most recently available price or, if the Board of Directors (the Board) so determines, by such other method as the Board shall determine in good faith to reflect its fair market value. Portfolio securities traded on more than one national securities exchange or market are valued according to the broadest and most representative market, as determined by Gabelli Funds, LLC (the Adviser).

Portfolio securities primarily traded on a foreign market are generally valued at the preceding closing values of such securities on the relevant market, but may be fair valued pursuant to procedures established by the Board if market conditions change significantly after the close of the foreign market, but prior to the close of business on the day the securities are being valued. Debt obligations for which market quotations are readily available are valued at the average of the latest bid and asked prices. If there were no asked prices quoted on such day, the securities are valued using the closing bid price, unless the Board determines such amount does not reflect the securities' fair value, in which case these securities will be fair valued as determined by the Board. Certain securities are valued principally using dealer quotations. Futures contracts are valued at the closing settlement price of the exchange or board of trade on which the applicable contract is traded. OTC futures and options on futures for which market quotations are readily available will be valued by quotations received from a pricing service or, if no quotations are available from a pricing service, by quotations obtained from one or more dealers in the instrument in question by the Adviser.

Securities and assets for which market quotations are not readily available are fair valued as determined by the Board. Fair valuation methodologies and procedures may include, but are not limited to: analysis and review of available financial and non-financial information about the company; comparisons with the valuation and changes in valuation of similar securities, including a comparison of foreign securities with the equivalent U.S.

dollar value American Depositary Receipt securities at the close of the U.S. exchange; and evaluation of any other information that could be indicative of the value of the security.

The inputs and valuation techniques used to measure fair value of the Fund's investments are summarized into three levels as described in the hierarchy below:

Level 1 - quoted prices in active markets for identical securities;
Level 2 - other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.); and
Level 3 - significant unobservable inputs (including the Board's determinations as to the fair value of investments).

A financial instrument's level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input both individually and in the aggregate that is significant to the fair value measurement. The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

The summary of the Fund's investments in securities by inputs used to value the Fund's investments as of June 30, 2024 is as follows:

Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)

During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Fund did not have transfers into or out of Level 3. The Fund's policy is to recognize transfers among Levels as of the beginning of the reporting period.

Additional Information to Evaluate Qualitative Information.

General. The Fund uses recognized industry pricing services - approved by the Board and unaffiliated with the Adviser - to value most of its securities, and uses broker quotes provided by market makers of securities not valued by these and other recognized pricing sources. Several different pricing feeds are received to value domestic equity securities, international equity securities, preferred equity securities, and fixed income securities. The data within these feeds are ultimately sourced from major stock exchanges and trading systems where these securities trade. The prices supplied by external sources are checked by obtaining quotations or actual transaction prices from market participants. If a price obtained from the pricing source is deemed unreliable, prices will be sought from another pricing service or from a broker/dealer that trades that security or similar securities.

Fair Valuation. Fair valued securities may be common or preferred equities, warrants, options, rights, or fixed income obligations. Where appropriate, Level 3 securities are those for which market quotations are not available, such as securities not traded for several days, or for which current bids are not available, or which are restricted as to transfer. When fair valuing a security, factors to consider include recent prices of comparable securities that are publicly traded, reliable prices of securities not publicly traded, the use of valuation models, current analyst reports, valuing the income or cash flow of the issuer, or cost if the preceding factors do not apply. A significant change in the unobservable inputs could result in a lower or higher value in Level 3 securities. The circumstances of Level 3 securities are frequently monitored to determine if fair valuation measures continue to apply.

The Adviser reports quarterly to the Board the results of the application of fair valuation policies and procedures. These may include backtesting the prices realized in subsequent trades of these fair valued securities to fair values previously recognized.

Investments in Other Investment Companies. The Fund may invest, from time to time, in shares of other investment companies (or entities that would be considered investment companies but are excluded from the definition pursuant to certain exceptions under the 1940 Act) (the Acquired Funds) in accordance with the 1940 Act and related rules. Stockholders in the Fund would bear the pro rata portion of the periodic expenses of the Acquired Funds in addition to the Fund's expenses. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Fund's pro rata portion of the periodic expenses charged by the Acquired Funds was less than one basis point.

Foreign Currency Translations. The books and records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. dollars. Foreign currencies, investments, and other assets and liabilities are translated into U.S. dollars at current exchange rates. Purchases and sales of investment securities, income, and expenses are translated at the exchange rate prevailing on the respective dates of such transactions. Unrealized gains and losses that result from changes in foreign exchange rates and/or changes in market prices of securities have been included in unrealized appreciation/depreciation on investments and foreign currency translations. Net realized foreign currency gains and losses resulting from changes in exchange rates include foreign currency gains and losses between trade

17

Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)

date and settlement date on investment securities transactions, foreign currency transactions, and the difference between the amounts of interest and dividends recorded on the books of the Fund and the amounts actually received. The portion of foreign currency gains and losses related to fluctuation in exchange rates between the initial purchase trade date and subsequent sale trade date is included in realized gain/(loss) on investments.

Foreign Securities. The Fund may directly purchase securities of foreign issuers. Investing in securities of foreign issuers involves special risks not typically associated with investing in securities of U.S. issuers. The risks include possible revaluation of currencies, the inability to repatriate funds, less complete financial information about companies, and possible future adverse political and economic developments. Moreover, securities of many foreign issuers and their markets may be less liquid and their prices more volatile than securities of comparable U.S. issuers.

Foreign Taxes. The Fund may be subject to foreign taxes on income, gains on investments, or currency repatriation, a portion of which may be recoverable. The Fund will accrue such taxes and recoveries as applicable, based upon its current interpretation of tax rules and regulations that exist in the markets in which it invests.

Restricted Securities. The Fund may invest up to 15% of its net assets in securities for which the markets are restricted. Restricted securities include securities whose disposition is subject to substantial legal or contractual restrictions. The sale of restricted securities often requires more time and results in higher brokerage charges or dealer discounts and other selling expenses than the sale of securities eligible for trading on national securities exchanges or in the over-the-counter markets. Restricted securities may sell at a price lower than similar securities that are not subject to restrictions on resale. Securities freely saleable among qualified institutional investors under special rules adopted by the SEC may be treated as liquid if they satisfy liquidity standards established by the Board. The continued liquidity of such securities is not as well assured as that of publicly traded securities, and, accordingly, the Board will monitor their liquidity. At June 30, 2024, the Fund held no restricted securities.

Securities Transactions and Investment Income. Securities transactions are accounted for on the trade date with realized gain/(loss) on investments determined by using the identified cost method. Interest income (including amortization of premium and accretion of discount) is recorded on an accrual basis. Premiums and discounts on debt securities are amortized using the effective yield to maturity method or amortized to earliest call date, if applicable. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date, except for certain dividends from foreign securities that are recorded as soon after the ex-dividend date as the Fund becomes aware of such dividends.

Distributions to Stockholders. Distributions to common stockholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. The characterization of distributions to stockholders is based on income and capital gains as determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from income and capital gains as determined under GAAP. These differences are primarily due to differing treatments of income and gains on various investment securities and foreign currency transactions held by the Fund, timing differences, and differing characterizations of distributions made by the Fund. Distributions from net investment income for federal income tax purposes include net realized gains on foreign currency transactions. These book/tax differences are either temporary or permanent in nature. To the extent these differences are permanent, adjustments are made to the appropriate capital accounts in the period when the differences arise. These reclassifications have no impact on the NAV of the Fund.

Distributions to stockholders of the Fund's Auction Market Series C Cumulative Preferred Stock (Series C Preferred), 5.125% Series E Cumulative Preferred Stock (Series E Preferred), and 5.125% Series G Preferred Stock (Series G Preferred) are accrued on a daily basis and are determined as described in Note 6.

Under the Fund's current distribution policy related to common shares, the Fund declares and pays quarterly distributions from net investment income, capital gains, and paid-in capital. The actual source of the distribution is determined after the end of the calendar year. Pursuant to this policy, distributions during the year may be made in excess of required distributions. To the extent such distributions are made from current earnings and profits, they are considered ordinary income or long term capital gains. Distributions sourced from paid-in capital should not be considered the current yield or the total return from an investment in the Fund.

The tax character of distributions paid during the year ended December 31, 2023 was as follows:

Common Preferred
Distributions paid from:
Ordinary income $ - $ 1,799,838
Return of capital 24,504,720 2,508,146
Total distributions paid $ 24,504,720 $ 4,307,984

Provision for Income Taxes. The Fund intends to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the Code). It is the policy of the Fund to comply with the requirements of the Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute substantially all of its net investment company taxable income and net capital gains. Therefore, no provision for federal income taxes is required.

At December 31, 2023, the Fund had net capital loss carryforwards for federal income tax purposes which are available to reduce future required distributions of net capital gains to shareholders. The Fund is permitted to carry capital losses forward for an unlimited period.

Capital losses that are carried forward will retain their character as either short term or long term capital losses.

Short term capital loss carryforward with no expiration $ 1,130,402
Long term capital loss carryforward with no expiration 3,063,462
Total capital loss carryforwards $ 4,193,864

The following summarizes the tax cost of investments and the related net unrealized appreciation at June 30, 2024:

The Fund is required to evaluate tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the Fund's tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are "more-likely-than-not" of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Income tax and related interest and penalties would be recognized by the Fund as tax

19

Notes to Financial Statements (Unaudited) (Continued)

expense in the Statement of Operations if the tax positions were deemed not to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Fund did not incur any income tax, interest, or penalties. As of June 30, 2024, the Adviser has reviewed all open tax years and concluded that there was no impact to the Fund's net assets or results of operations. The Fund's federal and state tax returns for the prior three years remain open, subject to examination. On an ongoing basis, the Adviser will monitor the Fund's tax positions to determine if adjustments to this conclusion are necessary.

3. Investment Advisory Agreement and Other Transactions. The Fund has entered into an investment advisory agreement (the Advisory Agreement) with the Adviser which provides that the Fund will pay the Adviser a fee, computed weekly and paid monthly, equal on an annual basis to 1.00% of the value of the Fund's average weekly net assets including the liquidation value of preferred stock. In accordance with the Advisory Agreement, the Adviser provides a continuous investment program for the Fund's portfolio and oversees the administration of all aspects of the Fund's business and affairs.

The Adviser has agreed to reduce the management fee on the incremental assets attributable to the Series C Preferred Stock if the total return of the NAV of the common shares of the Fund, including distributions and advisory fee subject to reduction, does not exceed the stated dividend rate on each particular series of the Preferred Stock for the period. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Fund's total return on the NAV of the common shares exceeded the stated dividend rate of Series C Preferred Stock. Thus, advisory fees with respect to the liquidation value of the Series C Preferred Stock were reduced by $1,209.

4. Portfolio Securities. Purchases and sales of securities during the six months ended June 30, 2024, other than short term securities and U.S. Government obligations, aggregated $6,187,587 and $14,291,478, respectively.

5. Transactions with Affiliates and Other Arrangements. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Fund paid $2,140 in brokerage commissions on security trades to G.research, LLC, an affiliate of the Adviser.

During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Fund received credits from a designated broker who agreed to pay certain Fund operating expenses. The amount of such expenses paid through this directed brokerage arrangement during this period was $1,560.

The cost of calculating the Fund's NAV per share is a Fund expense pursuant to the Advisory Agreement between the Fund and the Adviser. Under the sub-administration agreement with Bank of New York Mellon, the fees paid include the cost of calculating the Fund's NAV. The Fund reimburses the Adviser for this service. During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Fund accrued $22,500 in accounting fees in the Statement of Operations.

As per the approval of the Board, the Fund compensates officers of the Fund, who are employed by the Fund and are not employed by the Adviser (although officers may receive incentive based variable compensation from affiliates of the Adviser). During the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Fund accrued $45,537 in payroll expenses in the Statement of Operations.

The Fund pays retainer and per meeting fees to Directors not affiliated with the Adviser, plus specified amounts to the Lead Director and Audit Committee Chairman. Directors are also reimbursed for out of pocket expenses incurred in attending meetings. Directors who are directors or employees of the Adviser or an affiliated company receive no compensation or expense reimbursement from the Fund.

6. Capital. The Fund's Articles of Incorporation permit the Fund to issue 187,999,000 shares of common stock (par value $0.001). The Board has authorized the repurchase of up to 1,950,000 common shares on the open market when the shares are trading at a discount of 5% or more (or such other percentage as the Board may determine from time to time) from the NAV of the shares. During the six months ended June 30, 2024 and the year ended December 31, 2023, the Fund did not repurchase any of its common shares.

The Fund's Articles of Incorporation authorize the issuance of up to 12,001,000 shares of $0.001 par value Preferred Stock. The Preferred Stock is senior to the common stock and results in the financial leveraging of the common stock. Such leveraging tends to magnify both the risks and opportunities to common stockholders. Dividends on shares of the Preferred Stock are cumulative. The Fund is required by the 1940 Act and by the Articles Supplementary to meet certain asset coverage tests with respect to the Preferred Stock. If the Fund fails to meet these requirements and does not correct such failure, the Fund may be required to redeem, in part or in full, the Series E and Series G Preferred at redemption prices of $25 and $25, respectively, per share plus an amount equal to the accumulated and unpaid dividends whether or not declared on such shares in order to meet these requirements. Additionally, failure to meet the foregoing asset coverage requirements could restrict the Fund's ability to pay dividends to common stockholders and could lead to sales of portfolio securities at inopportune times. The income received on the Fund's assets may vary in a manner unrelated to the fixed and variable rates, which could have either a beneficial or detrimental impact on net investment income and gains available to common stockholders.

On June 28, 2024, the Fund distributed one transferable right for each of the 28,264,509 shares of common stock outstanding on that date. Four Rights were required to purchase one additional share of common stock at the subscription price of $5.00 per share.

For Series C Preferred Stock, the dividend rates, as set by the auction process that is generally held every seven days, were expected to vary with short term interest rates. Since February 2008, the number of shares of Series C Preferred Stock subject to bid orders by potential holders had been less than the number of shares of Series C Preferred Stock subject to sell orders. Holders that submitted sell orders had not been able to sell any or all of the Series C Preferred Stock for which they have submitted sell orders. Therefore the weekly auctions failed, and the dividend rate had been the maximum rate, which is 175% of the "AA" Financial Composite Commercial Paper Rate on the day of such auction. On June 26, 2024, the Fund redeemed all Series C Preferred Stock at the redemption price of $25,000 per share.

The Fund may redeem at any time, in whole or in part, the Series E Preferred Stock at its liquidation preference. In addition, the Board has authorized the repurchase of the Series E and Series G Preferred Stock in the open market at prices less than the $25 liquidation value per share. During the six months ended June 30, 2024 and the year ended December 31, 2023, the Fund repurchased and retired 76,863 and 93,612 Series E Preferred at investments of $1,734,454 and $2,198,952, respectively, and at average discounts of approximately 9.90%

and 6.08%, from its liquidation preference. During the six months ended June 30, 2024 and the year ended December 31, 2023, the Fund repurchased and retired 125,726 and 165,397 Series G Preferred at investments of $2,827,723 and $3,864,002, respectively, at average discounts of approximately 10.08% and 6.62%, respectively, from its liquidation preference.

The holders of Preferred Shares generally are entitled to one vote per share held on each matter submitted to a vote of stockholders of the Fund and will vote together with holders of common stock as a single class. The holders of Preferred Shares voting together as a single class also have the right currently to elect two Directors and, under certain circumstances, are entitled to elect a majority of the Board of Directors. In addition, the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes entitled to be cast by holders of all outstanding shares of the preferred shares, voting as a single class, will be required to approve any plan of reorganization adversely affecting the preferred stock, and the approval of two-thirds of each class, voting separately, of the Fund's outstanding voting stock must approve the conversion of the Fund from a closed-end to an open-end investment company. The approval of a majority (as defined in the 1940 Act) of the outstanding preferred shares and a majority (as defined in the 1940 Act) of the Fund's outstanding voting securities are required to approve certain other actions, including changes in the Fund's investment objectives or fundamental investment policies.

7. Industry Concentration. Because the Fund primarily invests in common stocks and other securities of foreign and domestic companies in the telecommunications, media, publishing, and entertainment industries, its portfolio may be subject to greater risk and market fluctuations than a portfolio of securities representing a broad range of investments.

8. Indemnifications. The Fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of indemnifications. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown. However, the Fund has not had prior claims or losses pursuant to these contracts. Management has reviewed the Fund's existing contracts and expects the risk of loss to be remote.

9. Subsequent Events. On July 25, 2024, the Fund issued 4,881,024 shares of common stock, receiving $24,065,120 after estimated offering expenses of $340,000. The NAV of the Fund increased by $0.21 per share on the day the additional shares were issued due to the additional shares being issued above NAV. Management has evaluated the impact on the Fund of all other subsequent events occurring through the date the financial statements were issued and has determined that there were no other subsequent events requiring recognition or disclosure in the financial statements.

Bogan, and Susan Watson Laughlin as Directors of the Fund, with 19,888,585 votes, 19,820,366 votes, and 19,831,223 votes cast in favor of these Directors, and 990,478 votes, 1,058,697 votes, and 1,047,839 votes withheld for these Directors, respectively.

In addition, preferred shareholders, voting as a separate class, re-elected James P. Conn as a Director of the Fund, with 2,055,679 votes cast in favor of this Director and 170,541 votes withheld for this Director.

Item 11. Statement Regarding Basis for Approval of Investment Advisory Contract.

Section 15(c) of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the 1940 Act), contemplates that the Board of Directors (the Board) of The Gabelli Multimedia Trust Inc. (the Fund), including a majority of the Directors who have no direct or indirect interest in the investment advisory agreement and are not interested persons of the Fund, as defined in the 1940 Act (the Independent Board Members), are required to annually review and re-approve the terms of the Fund's existing investment advisory agreement and approve any newly proposed terms therein. In this regard, the Board reviewed and re-approved, during the most recent six month period covered by this report, the Advisory Agreement (the Advisory Agreement) with Gabelli Funds, LLC (the Adviser) for the Fund.

More specifically, at a meeting held on February 13, 2024, the Board, including the Independent Board Members meeting in executive session with their counsel, considered the factors and reached the conclusions described below relating to the selection of the Adviser and the re-approval of the Advisory Agreement.

Nature, Extent and Quality of Services. The Independent Board Members considered information regarding the portfolio managers, the depth of the analyst pool available to the Adviser and the portfolio managers, the scope of supervisory, administrative, stockholder and other services supervised or provided by the Adviser, and the absence of significant service problems reported to the Board. The Independent Board Members noted the experience, length of service, and reputation of the portfolio managers.

Investment Performance. The Independent Board Members reviewed the performance of the Fund for the one-, three-, five- and ten-year periods ended December 31, 2023 against a peer group of seven other comparable peer funds selected by the Adviser (the Adviser Peer Group). The Independent Board Members noted that the Fund's performance was in the first quartile for the one-year period and fourth quartile for the three-, five-, and ten-year periods for the Adviser Peer Group. The Board Members discussed these comparative results and noted that the Fund's performance was acceptable, particularly noting the Fund's strong performance over the past year and past quarter, in comparison to that of the Adviser Peer Group.

Profitability. The Independent Board Members reviewed summary data regarding the profitability of the Fund to the Adviser both with an administrative overhead charge and without such charge. The Board also reviewed materials showing that a portion of the Fund's portfolio transactions was executed by the Adviser's affiliated broker, resulting in incremental profits to the broker.

Economies of Scale. The Independent Board Members considered the major elements of the Adviser's cost structure and the relationship of those elements to potential economies of scale. The Independent Board Members noted that the Fund was a closed-end fund and unlikely to realize any economies of scale potentially available through growth in the absence of additional offerings.

Sharing of Economies of Scale. The Independent Board Members noted that the investment advisory fee schedule for the Fund does not take into account any potential economies of scale that may develop.

Service and Cost Comparisons. The Independent Board Members compared the expense ratios of the investment advisory fee, other expenses, and total expenses of the Fund to similar expense ratios of the Adviser Peer Group and noted that the advisory fee includes substantially all administrative services of the Fund as well as investment advisory services of the Adviser. The Independent Board Members noted that the Fund's expense ratios were above average, and the Fund's size was below average within the Adviser Peer Group. The Independent Board Members were presented with information comparing the advisory fee to the fee for other types of accounts managed by the Adviser.

Conclusions. The Independent Board Members concluded that the Fund enjoyed highly experienced portfolio management services, good ancillary services and an acceptable performance record. The Independent Board Members also concluded that the Fund's expense ratios were acceptable in light of the Fund's size, and that, in part due to the Fund's structure as a closed-end fund, economies of scale were not a significant factor in their thinking. The Independent Board Members did not view the potential profitability of ancillary services as material to their decision. On the basis of the foregoing and without assigning particular weight to any single conclusion, the Independent Board Members determined to recommend continuation of the Advisory Agreement to the full Board.

Based on a consideration of all these factors in their totality, the Board Members, including all of the Independent Board Members, determined that the Fund's advisory fee was appropriate in light of the quality of services provided and in light of the other factors described above that the Board deemed relevant. Accordingly, the Board Members determined to approve the continuation of the Fund's Advisory Agreement. The Board Members based their decision on evaluations of all these factors as a whole and did not consider any one factor as all-important or controlling.
