Income from this issue is considered a preference item for purposes of calculating the alternative minimum tax
("AMT").
(c)
Maturity date shown represents the mandatory tender date.
(d)
Variable rate security. Interest rate disclosed is as of the most recent information available. Certain variable rate
securities are not based on a published reference rate and spread but are determined by the issuer or agent and
are based on current market conditions. These securities do not indicate a reference rate and spread in their
description above.
(e)
The coupon payment on this security is currently in default as of September 30, 2024.
(f)

weekly basis and is determined on the specific interest rate reset date by the remarketing agent, pursuant to a
formula specified in official documents for the VRDO, or set at the highest rate allowable as specified in official
documents for the VRDO. VRDOs are benchmarked to the Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association

of tax-exempt VRDOs reported to the Municipal Securities Rulemaking Board's Short-term Obligation Rate
Transparency System.

As a result of an expense limitation arrangement, effective December 1, 2022, the ratio of total annual fund
operating expenses, other than interest, brokerage, taxes, extraordinary expenses and acquired fund fees and
expenses, to average net assets of Class I shares did not exceed 0.55%. Total annual fund operating expenses,
after waiving and/or reimbursing expenses, exceeded the expense limitation as a result of interest expense. This
expense limitation arrangement cannot be terminated prior to December 31, 2025 without the Board of Trustees'
consent. Prior to December 1, 2022, the expense limitation was 0.60%.

1. Organization and significant accounting policies
Western Asset New York Municipals Fund (the "Fund") is a separate non-diversified investment series of Legg Mason Partners Income Trust (the "Trust"). The Trust, a Maryland statutory trust, is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act"), as an open-end management investment company.
The Fund follows the accounting and reporting guidance in Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standards Codification Topic 946, Financial Services - Investment Companies("ASC 946"). The following are significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund and are in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), including, but not limited to, ASC 946. Estimates and assumptions are required to be made regarding assets, liabilities and changes in net assets resulting from operations when financial statements are prepared. Changes in the economic environment, financial markets and any other parameters used in determining these estimates could cause actual results to differ. Subsequent events have been evaluated through the date the financial statements were issued.
(a) Investment valuation.The valuations for fixed income securities (which may include, but are not limited to, corporate, government, municipal, mortgage-backed, collateralized mortgage obligations and asset-backed securities) and certain derivative instruments are typically the prices supplied by independent third party pricing services, which may use market prices or broker/dealer quotations or a variety of valuation techniques and methodologies. The independent third party pricing services typically use inputs that are observable such as issuer details, interest rates, yield curves, prepayment speeds, credit risks/spreads, default rates and quoted prices for similar securities. Investments in open-endfunds are valued at the closing net asset value per share of each fund on the day of valuation. Futures contracts are valued daily at the settlement price established by the board of trade or exchange on which they are traded. If independent third party pricing services are unable to supply prices for a portfolio investment, or if the prices supplied are deemed by the manager to be unreliable, the market price may be determined by the manager using quotations from one or more broker/dealers or at the transaction price if the security has recently been purchased and no value has yet been obtained from a pricing service or pricing broker. When reliable prices are not readily available, such as when the value of a security has been significantly affected by events after the close of the exchange or market on which the security is principally traded, but before the Fund calculates its net asset value, the Fund values these securities as determined in accordance with procedures approved by the Fund's Board of Trustees.
Pursuant to policies adopted by the Board of Trustees, the Fund's manager has been designated as the valuation designee and is responsible for the oversight of the daily valuation process. The Fund's manager is assisted by the Global Fund Valuation Committee (the "Valuation Committee"). The Valuation Committee is responsible for making fair value determinations, evaluating the effectiveness of the Fund's pricing policies, and reporting to
Western Asset New York Municipals Fund 2024 Semi-Annual Report
17
Notes to Financial Statements(unaudited) (cont'd)
the Fund's manager and the Board of Trustees. When determining the reliability of third party pricing information for investments owned by the Fund, the Valuation Committee, among other things, conducts due diligence reviews of pricing vendors, monitors the daily change in prices and reviews transactions among market participants.
The Valuation Committee will consider pricing methodologies it deems relevant and appropriate when making fair value determinations. Examples of possible methodologies include, but are not limited to, multiple of earnings; discount from market of a similar freely traded security; discounted cash-flow analysis; book value or a multiple thereof; risk premium/yield analysis; yield to maturity; and/or fundamental investment analysis. The Valuation Committee will also consider factors it deems relevant and appropriate in light of the facts and circumstances. Examples of possible factors include, but are not limited to, the type of security; the issuer's financial statements; the purchase price of the security; the discount from market value of unrestricted securities of the same class at the time of purchase; analysts' research and observations from financial institutions; information regarding any transactions or offers with respect to the security; the existence of merger proposals or tender offers affecting the security; the price and extent of public trading in similar securities of the issuer or comparable companies; and the existence of a shelf registration for restricted securities.
For each portfolio security that has been fair valued pursuant to the policies adopted by the Board of Trustees, the fair value price is compared against the last available and next available market quotations. The Valuation Committee reviews the results of such back testing monthly and fair valuation occurrences are reported to the Board of Trustees quarterly.
The Fund uses valuation techniques to measure fair value that are consistent with the market approach and/or income approach, depending on the type of security and the particular circumstance. The market approach uses prices and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving identical or comparable securities. The income approach uses valuation techniques to discount estimated future cash flows to present value.
GAAP establishes a disclosure hierarchy that categorizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to value assets and liabilities at measurement date. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:
Level 1 - unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical investments
Level 2 - other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.)
Level 3 - significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund's own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments)

(b) Tender option bonds.The Fund may enter into tender option bond ("TOB") transactions and may invest in inverse floating rate instruments ("Inverse Floaters") issued in TOB transactions. The Fund may participate either in structuring an Inverse Floater or purchasing an Inverse Floater in the secondary market. When structuring an Inverse Floater, the Fund deposits securities (typically municipal bonds or other municipal securities) (the "Underlying Bonds") into a special purpose entity, referred to as a TOB trust. The TOB trust generally issues floating rate notes ("Floaters") to third parties and residual interest, Inverse Floaters, to the Fund. The Floaters issued by the TOB trust have interest rates which reset weekly and provide the holders of the Floaters the option to tender their notes back to the TOB trust for redemption at par at each reset date. The net proceeds of the sale of the Floaters, after expenses, are received by the Fund and may be invested in additional securities. The Inverse Floaters are inverse floating rate debt instruments, as the return on those bonds is inversely related to changes in a specified interest rate. Distributions on any Inverse Floaters paid to the Fund will be reduced or, in the extreme, eliminated as short-term interest rates rise and will increase when such interest rates fall. Floaters issued by a TOB trust may be senior to the Inverse Floaters held by the Fund. The value and market for Inverse Floaters can be volatile, and Inverse Floaters can have limited liquidity.
Western Asset New York Municipals Fund 2024 Semi-Annual Report
19
Notes to Financial Statements(unaudited) (cont'd)
An investment in an Inverse Floater structured by the Fund is accounted for as a secured borrowing. The Underlying Bonds deposited into the TOB trust are included in the Fund's Schedule of Investments and a liability for Floaters (TOB floating rate notes) issued by the TOB trust is recognized in the Fund's Statement of Assets and Liabilities. The carrying amount of the TOB trust's floating rate note obligations as reported on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities approximates its fair value. Interest income, including amortization, on the Underlying Bonds is recognized in the Fund's Statements of Operations. Interest paid to holders of the Floaters, as well as other expenses related to administration, liquidity, remarketing and trustee services of the TOB trust, are recognized in Interest expense in the Fund's Statement of Operations. For the sixmonths ended September 30, 2024, the average daily amount of floating rate notes outstanding was $6,790,000 and weighted average interest rate was 4.04%.
(c) Futures contracts.The Fund uses futures contracts generally to gain exposure to, or hedge against, changes in interest rates or gain exposure to, or hedge against, changes in certain asset classes. A futures contract represents a commitment for the future purchase or sale of an asset at a specified price on a specified date.
Upon entering into a futures contract, the Fund is required to deposit cash or securities with a broker in an amount equal to a certain percentage of the contract amount. This is known as the ''initial margin'' and subsequent payments (''variation margin'') are made or received by the Fund each day, depending on the daily fluctuation in the value of the contract. For certain futures, including foreign denominated futures, variation margin is not settled daily, but is recorded as a net variation margin payable or receivable. The daily changes in contract value are recorded as unrealized appreciation or depreciation in the Statement of Operations and the Fund recognizes a realized gain or loss when the contract is closed.
Futures contracts involve, to varying degrees, risk of loss in excess of the amounts reflected in the financial statements. In addition, there is the risk that the Fund may not be able to enter into a closing transaction because of an illiquid secondary market.
(d) Securities traded on a when-issued and delayed delivery basis.The Fund may trade securities on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis. In when-issued and delayed delivery transactions, the securities are purchased or sold by the Fund with payment and delivery taking place in the future in order to secure what is considered to be an advantageous price and yield to the Fund at the time of entering into the transaction.
Purchasing such securities involves risk of loss if the value of the securities declines prior to settlement. These securities are subject to market fluctuations and their current value is determined in the same manner as for other securities.
(e) Fund concentration.Since the Fund invests primarily in obligations of issuers within New York, it is subject to possible risks associated with economic, political, credit or legal developments or industrial or regional matters specifically affecting New York.
20
Western Asset New York Municipals Fund 2024 Semi-Annual Report
(f) Counterparty risk and credit-risk-related contingent features of derivative instruments.The Fund may invest in certain securities or engage in other transactions where the Fund is exposed to counterparty credit risk in addition to broader market risks. The Fund may invest in securities of issuers, which may also be considered counterparties as trading partners in other transactions. This may increase the risk of loss in the event of default or bankruptcy by the counterparty or if the counterparty otherwise fails to meet its contractual obligations. The Fund's subadviser attempts to mitigate counterparty risk by (i) periodically assessing the creditworthiness of its trading partners, (ii) monitoring and/or limiting the amount of its net exposure to each individual counterparty based on its assessment and (iii) requiring collateral from the counterparty for certain transactions. Market events and changes in overall economic conditions may impact the assessment of such counterparty risk by the subadviser. In addition, declines in the values of underlying collateral received may expose the Fund to increased risk of loss.
With exchange traded and centrally cleared derivatives, there is less counterparty risk to the Fund since the exchange or clearinghouse, as counterparty to such instruments, guarantees against a possible default. The clearinghouse stands between the buyer and the seller of the contract; therefore, the credit risk is limited to failure of the clearinghouse. While offset rights may exist under applicable law, the Fund does not have a contractual right of offset against a clearing broker or clearinghouse in the event of a default of the clearing broker or clearinghouse.
The Fund has entered into master agreements, such as an International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. Master Agreement ("ISDA Master Agreement") or similar agreement, with certain of its derivative counterparties that govern over-the-counter ("OTC") derivatives and provide for general obligations, representations, agreements, collateral posting terms, netting provisions in the event of default or termination and credit related contingent features. The credit related contingent features include, but are not limited to, a percentage decrease in the Fund's net assets or net asset value per share over a specified period of time. If these credit related contingent features were triggered, the derivatives counterparty could terminate the positions and demand payment or require additional collateral.
Under an ISDA Master Agreement, the Fund may, under certain circumstances, offset with the counterparty certain derivative financial instruments' payables and/or receivables with collateral held and/or posted and create one single net payment. However, absent an event of default by the counterparty or a termination of the agreement, the terms of the ISDA Master Agreements do not result in an offset of reported amounts of financial assets and financial liabilities in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities across transactions between the Fund and the applicable counterparty. The enforceability of the right to offset may vary by jurisdiction.
Western Asset New York Municipals Fund 2024 Semi-Annual Report
21
Notes to Financial Statements(unaudited) (cont'd)
Collateral requirements differ by type of derivative. Collateral or margin requirements are set by the broker or exchange clearinghouse for exchange traded derivatives while collateral terms are contract specific for OTC traded derivatives. Cash collateral that has been pledged to cover obligations of the Fund under derivative contracts, if any, will be reported separately in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Securities pledged as collateral, if any, for the same purpose are noted in the Schedule of Investments.
As of September 30, 2024, the Fund did not have any open OTC derivative transactions with credit related contingent features in a net liability position.
(g) Security transactions and investment income.Security transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis. Interest income (including interest income from payment-in-kind securities) is recorded on the accrual basis. Amortization of premiums and accretion of discounts on debt securities are recorded to interest income over the lives of the respective securities, except for premiums on certain callable debt securities, which are amortized to the earliest call date. The cost of investments sold is determined by use of the specific identification method. To the extent any issuer defaults or a credit event occurs that impacts the issuer, the Fund may halt any additional interest income accruals and consider the realizability of interest accrued up to the date of default or credit event.
(h) Distributions to shareholders.Distributions from net investment income of the Fund are declared each business day to shareholders of record and are paid monthly. The Fund intends to satisfy conditions that will enable interest from municipal securities, which is exempt from federal and certain state income taxes, to retain such tax-exempt status when distributed to the shareholders of the Fund. Distributions of net realized gains, if any, are taxable and are declared at least annually. Distributions to shareholders of the Fund are recorded on the ex-dividend date and are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP.
(i) Share class accounting.Investment income, common expenses and realized/unrealizedgains (losses) on investments are allocated to the various classes of the Fund on the basis of daily net assets of each class. Fees relating to a specific class are charged directly to that share class.
(j) Compensating balance arrangements.The Fund has an arrangement with its custodian bank whereby a portion of the custodian's fees is paid indirectly by credits earned on the Fund's cash on deposit with the bank.
(k) Federal and other taxes.It is the Fund's policy to comply with the federal income and excise tax requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the "Code"), as amended, applicable to regulated investment companies. Accordingly, the Fund intends to distribute its taxable income and net realized gains, if any, to shareholders in accordance with timing requirements imposed by the Code. Therefore, no federal or state income tax provision is required in the Fund's financial statements.
22
Western Asset New York Municipals Fund 2024 Semi-Annual Report
Management has analyzed the Fund's tax positions taken on income tax returns for all open tax years and has concluded that as of March 31, 2024, no provision for income tax is required in the Fund's financial statements. The Fund's federal and state income and federal excise tax returns for tax years for which the applicable statutes of limitations have not expired are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and state departments of revenue.
(l) Reclassification.GAAP requires that certain components of net assets be reclassifiedto reflect permanent differences between financial and tax reporting. These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or net asset value per share.
2. Investment management agreementand other transactions with affiliates
Franklin Templeton Fund Adviser, LLC ("FTFA") is the Fund's investment manager and Western Asset Management Company, LLC ("Western Asset") is the Fund's subadviser. FTFA and Western Asset are indirect, wholly-owned subsidiaries of Franklin Resources, Inc. ("Franklin Resources").
Under the investment management agreement, the Fund pays an investment management fee, calculated daily and paid monthly, at an annual rate of 0.45% of the Fund's average daily net assets.
FTFA provides administrative and certain oversight services to the Fund. FTFA delegates to the subadviser the day-to-day portfolio management of the Fund. For its services, FTFA pays Western Asset a fee monthly, at an annual rate equal to 70% of the net management fee it receives from the Fund.
As a result of an expense limitation arrangement between the Fund and FTFA, the ratio of total annual fund operating expenses, other than interest, brokerage, taxes, extraordinary expenses and acquired fund fees and expenses, to average net assets of Class I shares did not exceed 0.55%. Total annual fund operating expenses, after waiving and/or reimbursing expenses, exceeded the expense limitation for Class I shares as a result of interest expense. This expense limitation arrangement cannot be terminated prior to December 31, 2025 without the Board of Trustees' consent.
During the sixmonths ended September 30, 2024, fees waived and/or expenses reimbursed amounted to $14,233.
FTFA is permitted to recapture amounts waived and/or reimbursed to a class within two years after the fiscal year in which FTFA earned the fee or incurred the expense if the class' total annual fund operating expenses have fallen to a level below the expense limitation ("expense cap") in effect at the time the fees were earned or the expenses incurred. In no case will FTFA recapture any amount that would result, on any particular business day of the Fund, in the class' total annual fund operating expenses exceeding the expense cap or any other lower limit then in effect.

Franklin Distributors, LLC ("Franklin Distributors") serves as the Fund's sole and exclusive distributor. Franklin Distributors is an indirect, wholly-owned broker-dealer subsidiary of Franklin Resources. Franklin Templeton Investor Services, LLC ("Investor Services") serves as the Fund's shareholder servicing agent and acts as the Fund's transfer agent and dividend-paying agent. Investor Services is an indirect, wholly-owned subsidiary of Franklin Resources. Each class of shares of the Fund pays transfer agent fees to Investor Services for its performance of shareholder servicing obligations. Investor Services charges account-basedfees based on the number of individual shareholder accounts, as well as a fixed percentage fee based on the total account-based fees charged. In addition, each class reimburses Investor Services for out of pocket expenses incurred. For the sixmonths ended September 30, 2024, the Fund incurred transfer agent fees as reported on the Statement of Operations, of which $1,139 was earned by Investor Services.
There is a maximum initial sales charge of 3.75% for Class A shares. There is a contingent deferred sales charge ("CDSC") of 1.00% on Class C shares, which applies if redemption occurs within 12 months from purchase payment. In certain cases, Class A shares have a 1.00% CDSC, which applies if redemption occurs within 18 months from purchase payment. This CDSC only applies to those purchases of Class A shares, which, when combined with current holdings of other shares of funds sold by Franklin Distributors, equal or exceed $250,000 in the aggregate. These purchases do not incur an initial sales charge.

8. Redemption facility
The Fund, together with other U.S. registered and foreign investment funds (collectively, the "Borrowers") managed by Franklin Resources or its affiliates, is a borrower in a joint syndicated senior unsecured credit facility totaling $2.675 billion (the "Global Credit Facility"). The Global Credit Facility provides a source of funds to the Borrowers for temporary and emergency purposes, including the ability to meet future unanticipated or unusually large redemption requests.

Board Approval of Management and Subadvisory Agreements (unaudited)
The Executive and Contracts Committee of the Board of Trustees (the "Executive and Contracts Committee") considered the Management Agreement between the Trust and Franklin Templeton Fund Adviser, LLC ("FTFA") (formerly known as Legg Mason Partners Fund Advisor, LLC) with respect to the Fund and the subadvisory agreement between FTFA and Western Asset Management Company, LLC ("Western Asset" or the "Subadviser", and together with FTFA, the "Advisers") with respect to the Fund (collectively, the "Agreements") at a meeting held on April 30, 2024. At an in-person meeting held on May 16, 2024, the Executive and Contracts Committee reported to the full Board of Trustees their considerations and recommendation with respect to the Agreements, and the Board of Trustees, including a majority of the Independent Trustees, considered and approved renewal of the Agreements.
In arriving at their decision to approve the renewal of the Agreements, the Trustees met with representatives of the Advisers, including relevant investment advisory personnel; considered a variety of information prepared by the Advisers, materials provided by Broadridge and advice and materials provided by counsel to the Independent Trustees; reviewed performance and expense information for peer groups of comparable funds selected by Broadridge (the "Performance Universe") and certain other comparable products available from Western Asset or affiliates of Western Asset, including separate accounts managed by Western Asset; and requested and reviewed additional information as necessary. These reviews were in addition to information obtained by the Trustees at their regular quarterly meetings (and various committee meetings) with respect to the Fund's performance and other relevant matters and related discussions with the Advisers' personnel. The information received and considered by the Board both in conjunction with the May meeting and at prior meetings was both written and oral. With respect to the Broadridge materials, the Board was provided with a description of the methodology used to determine the similarity of the Fund with the funds included in the Performance Universe. It was noted that while the Board found the Broadridge data generally useful they recognized its limitations, including that the data may vary depending on the end date selected and that the results of the performance comparisons may vary depending on the selection of the peer group and its composition over time.
As part of their review, the Trustees examined FTFA's ability to provide high quality oversight and administrative and shareholder support services to the Fund and the Subadviser's ability to provide high quality investment management services to the Fund. The Trustees considered the experience of FTFA's personnel in providing the types of services that FTFA is responsible for providing to the Fund; the ability of FTFA to attract and retain capable personnel; and the capability and integrity of FTFA's senior management and staff. The Trustees also considered the investment philosophy and research and decision-makingprocesses of the Subadviser; the experience of their key advisory personnel responsible for management of the Fund; the ability of the Subadviser to attract and retain

capable research and advisory personnel; the risks to the Advisers associated with sponsoring the Fund (such as entrepreneurial, operational, reputational, litigation and regulatory risk), as well as FTFA's and the Subadviser's risk management processes; the capability and integrity of the Advisers' senior management and staff; and the level of skill required to manage the Fund. In addition, the Trustees reviewed the quality of the Advisers' services with respect to regulatory compliance and compliance with the investment policies of the Fund, and conditions that might affect the Advisers' ability to provide high quality services to the Fund in the future, including their business reputations, financial conditions and operational stabilities. Based on the foregoing, the Trustees concluded that the Subadviser's investment process, research capabilities and philosophy were well suited to the Fund given its investment objectives and policies, and that the Advisers would be able to meet any reasonably foreseeable obligations under the Agreements.
The Board reviewed the qualifications, backgrounds and responsibilities of FTFA's and Western Asset's senior personnel and the team of investment professionals primarily responsible for the day-to-day portfolio management of the Fund. The Board also considered, based on its knowledge of FTFA and its affiliates, the financial resources of Franklin Resources, Inc., the parent organization of the Advisers. The Board recognized the importance of having a fund manager with significant resources.
In reviewing the quality of the services provided to the Fund, the Trustees also reviewed comparisons of the performance of the Fund to the performance of certain comparable funds and to its investment benchmark over the 1-, 3-, 5- and 10-year periods ended December 31, 2023. The information comparing the Fund's performance to that of its Performance Universe, consisting of all funds (including the Fund) classified as retail and institutional New York municipal debt funds by Broadridge, showed, among other data, that the Fund's performance for the 1-, 3-, 5- and 10-year periods ended December 31, 2023 was below the median. The Board noted that the Fund's performance trailed the performance of its benchmark index for the 1-, 3-, 5- and 10-year periods ended December 31, 2023. The Board considered the factors involved in the Fund's performance relative to the performance of its investment benchmark and Performance Universe.
The Trustees also considered the management fee payable by the Fund to FTFA, total expenses payable by the Fund and the fee that FTFA pays to the Subadviser. They reviewed information concerning management fees paid to investment advisers of similarly managed funds as well as fees paid by Western Asset's other clients, including separate accounts managed by Western Asset. The Trustees also noted that the Fund does not pay any management fees directly to the Subadviser because FTFA pays the Subadviser for services provided to the Fund out of the management fee FTFA receives from the Fund. The information comparing the Fund's Contractual and Actual Management Fees as well as its actual total expense ratio to its peer group, consisting of institutional New York municipal

debt funds (including the Fund) chosen by Broadridge to be comparable to the Fund, showed that the Fund's Contractual Management Fee was below the median and its Actual Management Fee was above the median. The Board noted that the Fund's actual total expense ratio was slightly above the median. The Board noted that the expense caps were lowered for two share classes, effective December 1, 2022, and considered that the current limitation on the Fund's expenses is expected to continue through December 2025. The Board also noted that effective December 1, 2022, the Fund's management fee rate was reduced to an annual rate of 0.45% of its average daily net assets.
The Trustees further evaluated the benefits of the advisory relationship to the Advisers, including, among others, the profitability of the relationship to the Advisers; the direct and indirect benefits that the Advisers may receive from their relationships with the Fund, including the "fallout benefits," such as reputational value derived from serving as investment adviser to the Fund; and the affiliation between the Advisers and certain other service providers for the Fund. In that connection, the Board considered that the ancillary benefits that the Advisers receive were reasonable. The Trustees noted that Western Asset does not have soft dollar arrangements.
Finally, the Trustees considered, in light of the profitability information provided by the Advisers, the extent to which economies of scale would be realized by the Advisers as the assets of the Fund grow. The Board noted that the Fund's Contractual Management Fee was below the median of the peer group and its Actual Management Fee was above the median of the peer group.
In their deliberations with respect to these matters, the Independent Trustees were advised by their independent counsel, who is independent, within the meaning of the Securities and Exchange Commission rules regarding the independence of counsel, of the Advisers. The Independent Trustees weighed the foregoing matters in light of the advice given to them by their independent counsel as to the law applicable to the review of investment advisory contracts. In arriving at a decision, the Trustees, including the Independent Trustees, did not identify any single matter as all-important or controlling, and each Trustee may have attributed different weight to the various factors in evaluating the Agreements. The foregoing summary does not detail all the matters considered. The Trustees judged the terms and conditions of the Agreements, including the investment advisory fees, in light of all of the surrounding circumstances.
Based upon their review, the Trustees, including all of the Independent Trustees, determined, in the exercise of their business judgment, that they were satisfied with the quality of investment advisory services being provided by the Advisers; that the fees to be paid to the Advisers under the Agreements were fair and reasonable given the scope and quality of the services rendered by the Advisers; and that approval of the Agreements was in the best interest of the Fund and its shareholders.
