The Funds pay regular quarterly cash
distributions to common
shareholders at a level rate that may be adjusted from time
to time, based on the projected income of a Fund.
The amount of quarterly distributions may vary depending on a
number of factors, including changes in portfolio and market
conditions. Each Fund's distributions reflect net investment
income, and may also include net realized capital gains and/or
return of capital. Return of capital includes
distributions paid by a Fund in excess of its net investment
income, and such excess is distributed from the Fund's
assets. Under
federal tax regulations, some or all of the return of capital
distributed by a Fund may be taxed as ordinary income.
In addition, distributions for Funds investing in real
estate investment trusts (REITs) may later be characterized as
capital gains and/or a return of capital, depending on the
character of the dividends reported to each Fund after year-end by
REITs held by a Fund.
The amount and composition of each Fund's distribution is
disclosed quarterly at cohenandsteers.com; however,
this information may change after each calendar year end once the
final tax characteristics of all Fund distributions can be
determined with certainty. Final tax
characteristics of all Fund distributions will be provided on Form
1099-DIV, which is mailed after the close of each
calendar year.
