NOTICE OF CHANGE TO ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS
To Be Held on May 11, 2020
THIS NOTICE SHOULD BE READ IN CONJUNCTION WITH THE PROXY STATEMENT AND NOTICE OF ANNUAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS, EACH DATED APRIL 1, 2020.
To the Stockholders of THE GABELLI CONVERTIBLE AND INCOME SECURITIES FUND INC. (the “Fund”)
Notice is hereby given that the location of the Annual Meeting of Stockholders of the Fund (the “Meeting”) has been changed. The date and time of the Meeting remains the same, May
11, 2020 at 9:00 a.m., Eastern Time. Due to the public health impact of COVID-19 and to support the health and well-being of the Fund’s stockholders, the Board of Directors of the Fund has announced that the Meeting will now be held virtually by
Internet webcast rather than in person. Stockholders will only be able to attend the Meeting by means of remote communication. The record date remains unchanged and is fixed as the close of business on
March 17, 2020. Stockholders of record as of the record date may participate in, submit questions during, and vote at the Meeting. To participate in the Meeting, stockholders must register in advance by submitting the required information
(described below) to Broadridge Financial Solutions Inc., the Fund’s proxy tabulator, at https://viewproxy.com/GabelliFunds/broadridgevsm/.
If shares of stock are registered directly with the Fund in the stockholder’s name, in order to register to participate in the Meeting, the stockholder must enter the control number
found on the proxy card included in the proxy materials. If shares of stock are held by a broker, bank, or other nominee and the stockholder wishes to vote at the Meeting, the stockholder must first obtain a “legal proxy” from the applicable
nominee/record holder, who will then provide a newly-issued control number to be submitted when registering for the Meeting. If shares of stock are held by a broker, bank, or other nominee and the stockholder wishes to attend, but does not
wish to vote at the Meeting, the stockholder may call (914) 921-5070 for further information to attend the Meeting. Requests for registration must be received no later than 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on May 8, 2020.
Stockholders will receive an email confirming their registration and providing instructions for participating in the Meeting.
Stockholders are encouraged to vote in advance of the Meeting either through the internet, by telephone or, if paper copies of proxy materials were requested, by returning the completed proxy card.
Any questions for the Meeting can be submitted in advance when registering online or during the Meeting.
The matters to be presented at the Meeting are unchanged from the proxy statement and Notice of Annual Meeting of Stockholders, each dated April 1, 2020:
