PIMCO Dynamic Credit Income Fund Proxy Fight Supporting Tele-Vote Follow–up Script (Outbound) |
| Good (morning, afternoon, evening), my name is (AGENT’S FULL NAME). May I please speak to (SHAREHOLDER’S FULL NAME)? (Re-Greet If Necessary)
I am calling on behalf of your current investment with PIMCO Dynamic Credit Income Fund. You recently recorded your vote with a proxy representative by telephone. The Board and PIMCO greatly appreciate your support.
Recently Ironsides, a hedge fund shareholder, has proposed nominating two of its own candidates to the Board of Trustees. PIMCO does not believe that Ironsides’ motivations and strategies are designed to enhance long-term Fund performance. Rather, they are intended to allow Ironsides to turn a short-term profit without benefiting long-term shareholders.
The Current Board and PIMCO urge you to disregard any mailing you receive from Ironsides and to vote using only the Fund’s WHITE PROXY CARD. Please continue to support the Board by returning the Fund’s WHITE PROXY CARD in order to protect your long-term investment in the Fund.
Can the Board and PIMCO continue to count on your support? (Pause For Response)

| YES OR POSITIVE RESPONSE: Thank you. Remember, even if you have already sent back a gold proxy card, you can still support the Board by sending back the Fund’s WHITE PROXY CARD before the April 30th meeting date.

| NO RESPONSE - HAS QUESTIONS –NOT VOTING –SENDING OTHER CARD: Your vote at the upcoming meeting is very important, and there are a few things the Board believes you should take into account when making your decision. (Refer to Fact Sheet and begin discussion)
