Amendment to Annual Report by Investment Company (Form N-CSR/A)

1. Organization

Aberdeen Standard Global Infrastructure Income Fund (the "Fund") is a non-diversified (as defined by the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "1940 Act")), closed-end management investment company. The Fund was organized as a Maryland statutory trust on November 13, 2019 and seeded with an initial capital amount of $100,000 on June 19, 2020. It commenced operations on July 29, 2020. The Fund's investment objective is to seek to provide a high level of total return with an emphasis on current income. The investment objective is not fundamental and may be changed by the Board of Trustees without shareholder approval. There is no assurance that the Fund will achieve its investment objective.

Basis for Consolidation for the Fund

Aberdeen Standard Global Infrastructure Income Fund BL, LLC (the "Subsidiary"), a Delaware corporation, was incorporated on September 28, 2020 and is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Fund. The Subsidiary acts as an investment vehicle for the Fund in order to effect certain investments on behalf of the Fund consistent with the Fund's investment objective and policies as described in the Fund's prospectus. The Consolidated Schedule of Portfolio Investments ("CSOI") includes positions of the Fund and the Subsidiary. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Fund and the Subsidiary. Subsequent references to the Fund within the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements collectively refer to the Fund and the Subsidiary. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

The Fund is an investment company and accordingly follows the investment company accounting and reporting guidance of the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") Accounting Standard Codification Topic 946 Financial Services-Investment Companies. The following is a summary of significant accounting policies followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements. The policies conform to generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") in the United States of America. The preparation of financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of income and expenses for the period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The accounting records of the Fund are maintained in U.S. Dollars.

a. Security Valuation:

The Fund values its securities at current market value or fair value, consistent with regulatory requirements. "Fair value" is defined in the Fund's Valuation and Liquidity Procedures as the price that could be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly

transaction between willing market participants without a compulsion to transact at the measurement date.

Equity securities that are traded on an exchange are valued at the last quoted sale price on the principal exchange on which the security is traded at the "Valuation Time" subject to application. The Valuation Time is as of the close of regular trading on the New York Stock Exchange ("NYSE") (usually 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time). In the absence of a sale price, the security is valued at the mean of the bid/ask price quoted at the close on the principal exchange on which the security is traded. Securities traded on NASDAQ are valued at the NASDAQ official closing price.

Foreign equity securities that are traded on foreign exchanges that close prior to Valuation Time are valued by applying valuation factors to the last sale price or the mean price as noted above. Valuation factors are provided by an independent pricing service provider approved by the Board. These valuation factors are used when pricing the Fund's portfolio holdings to estimate market movements between the time foreign markets close and the time the Fund values such foreign securities. These valuation factors are based on inputs such as depositary receipts, indices, futures, sector indices/ETFs, exchange rates, and local exchange opening and closing prices of each security. When prices with the application of valuation factors are utilized, the value assigned to the foreign securities may not be the same as quoted or published prices of the securities on their primary markets. A security that applies a valuation factor is determined to be a Level 2 investment because the exchange-traded price has been adjusted. Valuation factors are not utilized if the independent pricing service provider is unable to provide a valuation factor or if the valuation factor falls below a predetermined threshold; in such case, the security is determined to be a Level 1 investment.

Short-term investments are comprised of cash and cash equivalents invested in short-term investment funds which are redeemable daily. The Fund sweeps available cash into the State Street Institutional U.S. Government Money Market Fund, which has elected to qualify as a "government money market fund" pursuant to Rule 2a-7 under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, and has an objective, which is not guaranteed, to maintain a $1.00 per share NAV. Generally, these investment types are categorized as Level 1 investments.

In the event that a security's market quotations are not readily available or are deemed unreliable (for reasons other than because the foreign exchange on which it trades closes before the Valuation Time), the security is valued at fair value as determined by the Fund's Pricing Committee, taking into account the relevant factors and surrounding circumstances using valuation policies and procedures approved by the Board. A security that has been fair valued by the Fund's Pricing Committee may be classified as Level 2 or Level 3 depending on the nature of the inputs.

In accordance with the authoritative guidance on fair value measurements and disclosures under GAAP in the United States of America, the Fund discloses the fair value of its investments using a three-level hierarchy that classifies the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure the fair value. The hierarchy assigns Level 1, the highest level, measurements to valuations based upon unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets, Level 2 measurements to valuations based upon other significant observable inputs, including adjusted quoted prices in active markets for similar assets, and Level 3, the lowest level, measurements to valuations based upon unobservable inputs that are significant to the valuation. Observable inputs are inputs that reflect the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability, which are based on market data obtained from sources independent of the reporting entity. Unobservable inputs are inputs that reflect the reporting entity's own assumptions about the assumptions market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability developed based on the best information available in the circumstances. A financial instrument's level within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

Level 1 - quoted prices in active markets for identical investments;

Level 2 - other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar securities, interest rates, prepayment speeds, and credit risk); or

Level 3 - significant unobservable inputs (including the Fund's own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments).

The Fund invests in infrastructure investments through private investment funds, which represented 6.1% of the net assets of the Fund as of September 30, 2021. The Fund follows the guidance issued in ASU 2015-07 Topic 820, Disclosures for Investments in Certain Entities That Calculate Net Asset Value per Share (or Its Equivalent), and values private investment companies using the NAVs provided by the underlying private investment companies as a practical expedient. The Fund determined that the use of the practical expedient was appropriate as the investments in private investment companies did not have readily determinable fair values. The Fund applies the practical expedient to private investment companies on an investment-by-investment basis, and consistently with the Fund's entire position in a particular investment, unless it is probable that the fund will sell a portion of an investment at an amount different from the NAV of the investment. In such cases the Fund may make adjustments to the NAV reported by the private investment company based on market or economic changes, which can include market fluctuations or other economic conditions for which it may be necessary to adjusted a reported NAV. In addition, the impact of changes in the market environment and other events on the fair values of the Fund's investments that have no readily available market values may differ from the impact of such changes on the readily available market values for the Fund's other investments. The Fund's net asset value could be adversely affected if the Fund's determinations regarding the fair value of the Fund's investments were materially higher or lower than the values that the Fund ultimately realizes upon the disposal of such investments.

b. Restricted Securities:

Restricted securities are privately-placed securities whose resale is restricted under U.S. securities laws. The Fund may invest in restricted securities, including unregistered securities eligible for resale without registration pursuant to Rule 144A and privately-placed securities of U.S. and non-U.S. issuers offered outside the U.S. without registration pursuant to Regulation S under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. Rule 144A securities may be freely traded among certain qualified institutional investors, such as the Fund, but resale of such securities in the U.S. is permitted only in limited circumstances.

c. Foreign Currency Translation:

Foreign securities, currencies, and other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are translated into U.S. Dollars at the exchange rate of said currencies against the U.S. Dollar, as of the Valuation Time, as provided by an independent pricing service approved by the Board.

Foreign currency amounts are translated into U.S. Dollars on the following basis:

The Fund does not isolate that portion of gains and losses on investments in equity securities due to changes in the foreign exchange rates from the portion due to changes in market prices of equity securities. Accordingly, realized and unrealized foreign currency gains and losses with respect to such securities are included in the reported net realized and unrealized gains and losses on investment transactions balances.

The Fund reports certain foreign currency related transactions and foreign taxes withheld on security transactions as components of realized gains for financial reporting purposes, whereas such foreign currency related transactions are treated as ordinary income for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

Net unrealized currency gains or losses from valuing foreign currency denominated assets and liabilities at period end exchange rates are reflected as a component of net unrealized appreciation/depreciation in value of investments, and translation of other assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies.

Net realized foreign exchange gains or losses represent foreign exchange gains and losses from transactions in foreign currencies and forward foreign currency contracts, exchange gains or losses realized between the trade date and settlement date on security transactions,

and the difference between the amounts of interest and dividends recorded on the Fund's books and the U.S. Dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received.

Foreign security and currency transactions may involve certain considerations and risks not typically associated with those of domestic origin, including unanticipated movements in the value of the foreign currency relative to the U.S. Dollar. Generally, when the U.S. Dollar rises in value against foreign currency, the Fund's investments denominated in that foreign currency will lose value because the foreign currency is worth fewer U.S. Dollars; the opposite effect occurs if the U.S. Dollar falls in relative value.

d. Rights Issues and Warrants:

Rights issues give the right, normally to existing shareholders, to buy a proportional number of additional securities at a given price (generally at a discount) within a fixed period (generally a short-term period) and are offered at the company's discretion. Warrants are securities that give the holder the right to buy common stock at a specified price for a specified period of time. Rights issues and warrants are speculative and have no value if they are not exercised before the expiration date. Rights issues and warrants are valued at the last sale price on the exchange on which they are traded.

e. Security Transactions, Investment Income and Expenses:

Security transactions are recorded on the trade date. Realized and unrealized gains/(losses) from security and currency transactions are calculated on the identified cost basis. Dividend income is recorded on the ex-dividend date except for certain dividends on foreign securities, which are recorded as soon as the Fund is informed after the ex-dividend date. Interest income and expenses are recorded on an accrual basis.

f. Distributions:

The Fund records dividends and distributions payable to its shareholders on the ex-dividend date. The amount of dividends and distributions from net investment income and net realized capital gains are determined in accordance with federal income tax regulations, which may differ from GAAP. These book basis/tax basis differences are either considered temporary or permanent in nature. To the extent these differences are permanent in nature, such amounts are reclassified within the capital accounts based on their federal tax basis treatment; temporary differences do not require reclassification. Dividends and distributions which exceed net investment income and net realized capital gains for tax purposes are reported as return of capital.

g. Federal Income Taxes:

The Fund intends to continue to qualify as a "regulated investment company" (RIC) by complying with the provisions available to certain investment companies, as defined in Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 ("the Code"), as amended, and to make distributions of net investment income and net realized capital gains sufficient to relieve the Fund from all federal income taxes. Therefore, no federal income tax provision is required.

For federal income tax purposes, taxable income of the Fund and the Subsidiary are separately calculated. The Subsidiary is classified as a corporation for tax purposes and will be required to pay corporate income tax on its earnings. Net losses of the Subsidiary are not deductible by the Fund.

The Fund recognizes the tax benefits of uncertain tax positions only where the position is "more likely than not" to be sustained assuming examination by tax authorities. Management of the Fund has concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions that would require recognition in the financial statements. The Fund recognizes the tax benefits of uncertain tax positions only where the position is "more likely than not" to be sustained assuming examination by tax authorities. Management of the Fund has concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions that would require recognition in the financial statements. Since tax authorities can examine previously filed tax returns, the Fund's U.S. federal and state tax returns for each of the most recent four fiscal years will be subject to such review when available.

h. Foreign Withholding Tax:

Dividend and interest income from non-U.S. sources received by the Fund are generally subject to non-U.S. withholding taxes. In addition, the Fund may be subject to capital gains tax in certain countries in which it invests. The above taxes may be reduced or eliminated under the terms of applicable U.S. income tax treaties with some of these countries. The Fund accrues such taxes when the related income is earned.

In addition, when the Fund sells securities within certain countries in which it invests, the capital gains realized may be subject to tax. Based on these market requirements and as required under GAAP, the Fund accrues deferred capital gains tax on securities currently held that have unrealized appreciation within these countries. The amount of deferred capital gains tax accrued is reported on the Statement of Operations as part of the Net Change in Unrealized Appreciation/Depreciation on investments.

3. Agreements and Transactions with Affiliates

a. Investment Adviser:

Aberdeen Standard Investments Inc. ("ASII") (to be known as abrdn Inc. effective January 1, 2022) and Aberdeen Asset Managers Limited ("AAML") serve as the Fund's Investment Adviser and Sub-Adviser, respectively, pursuant to an investment advisory agreement (the "Advisory Agreement") and sub-advisory agreement (the "Sub-Advisory Agreement") with the Fund. ASII and AAML (collectively, the "Advisers") are wholly-owned indirect subsidiaries of abrdn plc (formerly known as "Standard Life Aberdeen plc"). In rendering advisory services, the Advisers may use the resources of investment advisor subsidiaries of abrdn plc. These affiliates have entered into procedures pursuant to which investment professionals from affiliates may render portfolio management and research services as associated persons of the Advisers.

As compensation for its services to the Fund, ASII receives an annual investment advisory fee of 1.35% based on the Fund's average daily Managed Assets, computed daily and payable monthly. "Managed Assets" is defined as total assets of the Fund, including assets attributable to any form of leverage, minus liabilities (other than debt representing leverage and the aggregate liquidation preference of any preferred stock that may be outstanding). Under the Sub-Advisory Agreement, ASII is responsible for the payment of fees to AAML. For the fiscal year ended September 30, 2021, ASII earned $2,646,202 for advisory services.

b. Fund Administration:

ASII is the Fund's Administrator, pursuant to an agreement under which ASII receives a fee paid by the Fund, at an annual fee rate of 0.08% of the Fund's average daily net assets. For the fiscal year ended September 30, 2021, ASII earned $156,812 from the Fund for administration services.

c. Investor Relations:

Under the terms of the Investor Relations Services Agreement, ASII will provide and/or engage third parties to provide investor relations services to the Fund and certain other funds advised by the Adviser or its affiliates as part of an Investor Relations Program. Under the Investor Relations Services Agreement, the Fund owes a portion of the fees related to the Investor Relations Program (the "Fund's Portion"). However, investor relations services fees are limited by ASII so that the Fund will only pay up to an annual rate of 0.05% of the Fund's average weekly net assets. Any difference between the capped rate of 0.05% of the Fund's average weekly net assets and the Fund's Portion is paid for by ASII.

During the fiscal year ended September 30, 2021, the Fund incurred investor relations fees of approximately $66,014. For the year ended

September 30, 2021, ASII did not contribute to the investor relations fees for the Fund because the Fund's contribution was below 0.05% of the Fund's average weekly net assets on an annual basis.

4. Investment Transactions

Purchases and sales of investment securities (excluding short-term securities) for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2021, were $54,949,495 and $52,142,084, respectively.

5. Capital

The Fund is authorized to issue 100,000,000 common shares with par value $0.001. As of September 30, 2021, there were 8,855,000 common shares issued and outstanding.

7. Portfolio Investment Risks

The following describes certain risks of investing in the Fund. This is not a complete list of risk factors. Please see the back of this shareholder report for more information about these and other risks.

a. Infrastructure-Related Investments Risk:

Infrastructure-related issuers may be subject to a variety of factors that may adversely affect their business or operations, including high interest costs in connection with capital construction programs, high leverage, costs associated with environmental and other regulations, the effects of economic slowdown, surplus capacity, increased competition from other providers of services, uncertainties concerning the availability of fuel at reasonable prices, the effects of energy

conservation policies and other factors. For more information about the specific risks by which infrastructure-related issuers may be particularly affected, please see the back of this shareholder report.

b. Risks Associated with Foreign Securities and Currencies:

Investments in securities of foreign issuers carry certain risks not ordinarily associated with investments in securities of U.S. issuers. These risks include future political and economic developments, and the possible imposition of exchange controls or other foreign governmental laws and restrictions. In addition, with respect to certain countries, there is the possibility of expropriation of assets, confiscatory taxation, and political or social instability or diplomatic developments, which could adversely affect investments in those countries.

Certain countries also may impose substantial restrictions on investments in their capital markets by foreign entities, including restrictions on investments in issuers of industries deemed sensitive to relevant national interests. These factors may limit the investment opportunities available and result in a lack of liquidity and high price volatility with respect to securities of issuers from developing countries. Foreign securities may also be harder to price than U.S. securities.

The value of foreign currencies relative to the U.S. Dollar fluctuates in response to market, economic, political, regulatory, geopolitical or other conditions. A decline in the value of a foreign currency versus the U.S. Dollar reduces the value in U.S. Dollars of investments denominated in that foreign currency. This risk may impact the Fund more greatly to the extent the Fund does not hedge its currency risk, or hedging techniques used by the Adviser are unsuccessful.

c. Risks Associated with Emerging Markets

The emerging countries' securities markets are substantially smaller, less liquid and more volatile than the major securities markets in the United States. A high proportion of the securities of many companies in emerging countries may be held by a limited number of persons, which may limit the number of securities available for investment by the Fund. The limited liquidity of emerging country securities markets may also affect the Fund's ability to acquire or dispose of securities at the price and time it wishes to do so.

d. Private Investment Company Securities Risk:

The Fund's investments in private companies may be subject to higher risk than investments in securities of public companies. Little public information may exist about many of the issuers of these securities, and the Fund will be required to rely on the ability of the Adviser and Subadviser to obtain adequate information to evaluate the potential risks and returns involved in investing in these issuers. If the Adviser or Subadviser are unable to obtain all material information about the issuers of these securities, it may be difficult to make a fully informed investment decision, and the Fund may lose some or all of its investment in these securities. These factors could subject the Fund to greater risk than investments in securities of public companies and negatively affect the Fund's investment returns, which could negatively impact the dividends paid to you and the value of your investment. In addition, the Fund will likely be able to sell its investments in private companies only in private transactions with another investor or group of investors, and there can be no assurance that the Fund will be able to successfully arrange such transactions if and when it desires to sell any of its investments in private companies or, if successfully arranged, that the Fund will be able to obtain favorable values upon the sale of its investments in private companies in such transactions.

See additional information about the risks posed by private investments in the back of this shareholder report.

e. Sector Risk:

To the extent that the Fund has a significant portion of its assets invested in securities of companies conducting business in a broadly related group of industries within an economic sector, the Fund may be more vulnerable to unfavorable developments in that economic sector than funds that invest more broadly.

Industrials Sector Risk. The value of securities issued by companies in the industrials sector may be adversely affected by supply and demand related to their specific products or services and industrials sector products in general. The products of manufacturing companies may face obsolescence due to rapid technological developments and frequent new product introduction. Government regulations, world events, economic conditions and exchange rates may adversely affect the performance of companies in the industrials sector. Companies in the industrials sector may be adversely affected by liability for environmental damage and product liability claims. The industrials sector may also be adversely affected by changes or trends in commodity prices, which may be influenced by unpredictable factors. Companies in the industrials sector, particularly aerospace and defense companies, may also be adversely affected by government spending policies because companies involved in this sector rely to a significant extent on government demand for their products and services.

Utility Sector Risk. When interest rates go up, the value of securities issued by utilities companies historically has gone down. In most countries and localities, the utilities sector is regulated by governmental entities, which can increase costs and delays for new projects and make it difficult to pass increased costs on to consumers. In certain areas, deregulation of utilities has resulted in increased competition and reduced profitability for certain companies, and increased the risk that a particular company will become bankrupt or fail completely. Reduced profitability, as well as new uses for or additional need of funds (such as for expansion, operations or stock buybacks), could result in reduced dividend payout rates for utilities companies. In addition, utilities companies face the risk of increases in the cost and reduced availability of fuel (such as oil, coal, natural gas or nuclear energy) and potentially high interest costs for borrowing to finance new projects.

f. Valuation Risk:

The price that the Fund could receive upon the sale of any particular portfolio investment may differ from the Fund's valuation of the investment, particularly for securities that trade in thin or volatile markets or that are valued using a fair valuation methodology or a price provided by an independent pricing service. As a result, the price

received upon the sale of an investment may be less than the value ascribed by the Fund, and the Fund could realize a greater than expected loss or lower than expected gain upon the sale of the investment. The Fund's ability to value its investments may also be impacted by technological issues and/or errors by pricing services or other third-party service providers.

g. Market Events Risk:

Markets are affected by numerous factors, including interest rates, the outlook for corporate profits, the health of the national and world economies, the fluctuation of other stock markets around the world, and financial, economic and other global market developments and disruptions, such as those arising from war, terrorism, market manipulation, government interventions, defaults and shutdowns, political changes or diplomatic developments, public health emergencies and natural/environmental disasters. Such events can negatively impact the securities markets and cause the Fund to lose value.

One such event is the COVID-19 pandemic, which has caused major disruptions to economies and markets around the world, including the markets in which the Fund invests, and which has and may continue to negatively impact the value of certain of the Fund's investments. Although vaccines for COVID-19 and variants thereof are becoming more widely available, the COVID-19 pandemic and impacts thereof may continue for an extended period of time and may vary from market to market. To the extent the impacts of COVID-19 continue, the Fund may experience negative impacts to its business that could exacerbate other risks to which the Fund is subject.

Policy and legislative changes in countries around the world are affecting many aspects of financial regulation, and governmental and quasi-governmental authorities and regulators throughout the world have previously responded to serious economic disruptions with a variety of significant fiscal and monetary policy changes.

The impact of these changes on the markets, and the practical implications for market participants, may not be fully known for some time. In addition, economies and financial markets throughout the world are becoming increasingly interconnected. As a result, whether or not a Fund invests in securities of issuers located in or with significant exposure to countries experiencing economic and financial difficulties, the value and liquidity of the Fund's investments may be negatively affected by such events.

For example, whether or not the Fund invests in securities of issuers located in Europe (whether the EU, Eurozone or UK) or with significant exposure to European, EU, Eurozone or UK issuers or countries, the unavoidable uncertainties and events related to the UK's departure from the EU ("Brexit") could negatively affect the value and liquidity of a Fund's investments, increase taxes and costs of business and cause volatility in currency exchange rates and interest rates. Brexit could adversely affect the performance of contracts in existence at the date of Brexit and European, UK or worldwide political, regulatory, economic or market conditions and could contribute to instability in political institutions, regulatory agencies and financial markets. Brexit could also lead to legal uncertainty and politically divergent national laws and regulations as a new relationship between the UK and EU is defined and as the UK determines which EU laws to replace or replicate. Any of these effects of Brexit, and others that cannot be anticipated, could adversely affect the Fund's business, results of operations and financial condition.

Please read the prospectus for more detailed information regarding these and other risks.

8. Recent Regulatory Pronouncements

In October 2020, the SEC adopted new regulations governing the use of derivatives by registered investment companies. Rule 18f-4 will impose limits on the amount of derivatives a fund could enter into, eliminate the asset segregation framework currently used by funds to comply with Section 18 of the 1940 Act, and require funds whose use of derivatives is more than a limited specified exposure to establish and maintain a derivatives risk management program and appoint a derivatives risk manager. While the new rule became effective February 19, 2021, funds will not be required to fully comply with the new rule until August 19, 2022. It is not currently clear what impact, if any, the new rule will have on the availability, liquidity or performance of derivatives. Management is assessing the impact of Rule 18f-4 on the Funds.

9. Contingencies

In the normal course of business, the Fund may provide general indemnifications pursuant to certain contracts and organizational documents. The Fund's maximum exposure under these arrangements is dependent on future claims that may be made against the Fund, and therefore, cannot be estimated; however, the Fund expects the risk of loss from such claims to be remote.

The Company may hold certain portfolio company investments through its consolidated taxable subsidiary. Such subsidiary may be subject to U.S. federal and state corporate-level income taxes. The consolidated subsidiary recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities for the estimated future tax effects attributable to temporary differences between the tax basis of certain assets and liabilities and the reported amounts included in the accompanying consolidated balance sheet using the applicable statutory tax rates in effect for the year in which any such temporary differences are expected to reverse.

At September 30, 2021, the Fund recorded a deferred tax asset (DTA) of $53,585 primarily associated with net operating loss carryforwards and a corresponding valuation allowance of $53,585 against such asset in recognition of the Fund's conclusion that it may not be able to utilize these losses in future years. The Fund utilized an effective tax rate of 29% to record its DTA.

GAAP requires that certain components of net assets be adjusted to reflect permanent differences between financial and tax reporting. Accordingly, the table below details the necessary reclassifications, which are a result of permanent differences primarily attributable to foreign currency gains and losses, passive foreign investment company gains and losses, distribution re-designations, REIT Investments and U.S. blocker expenses allocation. These reclassifications have no effect on net assets or NAVs per share.

11. Subsequent Events

Management has evaluated the need for disclosures and/or adjustments resulting from subsequent events through the date the financial statements were issued. Based on this evaluation, no disclosures or adjustments were required to the financial statements as of September 30, 2021, other than as noted.

Effective for the 2022 fiscal year, the Board approved a Stable Distribution Plan that the Fund would pay a fixed monthly distribution of US$0.1083, commencing with the distribution paid on October 29, 2021. On October 11, 2021 and November 9, 2021, the Fund announced that it will pay on October 29, 2021 and November 30, 2021, a distribution of US $0.1083 per share to all shareholders of record as of October 22, 2021 and November 19, 2021, respectively.

Recent Changes

The following information is a summary of certain changes during the fiscal year ended September 30, 2021. This information may not reflect all of the changes that have occurred since you purchased the Fund.

During the applicable period, there have been: (i) no material changes to the Fund's investment objectives and policies that constitute its principal portfolio emphasis that have not been approved by shareholders, (ii) no material changes to the Fund's principal risks, and (iii) no changes to the Fund's charter or by-laws that would delay or prevent a change of control that have not been approved by shareholders.

Changes to Persons Primarily Responsible for Day-to-Day Management of the Fund

The Fund is managed by the Adviser's and Subadviser's Global Equity Team, which is responsible for the Fund's public infrastructure investments, and the Real Assets Team, which is responsible for the Fund's private/direct infrastructure investments. The portfolio managers of the Adviser and the Subadviser are responsible for the day-to-day management of their respective sleeves of the Fund's overall investment portfolio. Effective July 31, 2021, Jim Gasperoni departed the Adviser and Donal Reynolds was added as a portfolio manager of the Fund joining the current team of Dominic Byrne, Martin Connaghan, Joshua Duitz, and Ryan Sullivan. Donal is an Investment Director in the Global Equity Team and is lead Portfolio Manager for the Global Equity SICAV and the Global Focused Funds (OIEC & SICAV), as well as being co-lead of the Global Innovation Fund. Donal joined abrdn in 2006 as an Investment Process Analyst. In 2010, he transferred to the US Equity Team in Boston as Vice President. In 2014, he was promoted to Senior Vice President, Global Equities. Prior to this Donal worked for a number of firms, including BIL-Dexia, ING, JP Morgan and Aegon. Donal graduated with an MA in Chinese Studies and a BSC in Management. Additionally he holds the Investment Management Certificate and is a CFA Charterholder.

Investment Objectives and Policies

The Fund's investment objective is to seek to provide a high level of total return with an emphasis on current income. There is no assurance that the Fund will achieve its investment objective. The investment objective is not fundamental and may be changed by the Board of Trustees without shareholder approval.

The Fund seeks to achieve its investment objective by investing in a portfolio of income-producing public and private infrastructure equity investments around the world.

Under normal circumstances, at least 80% of the Fund's net assets (plus the amount of any borrowings for investment purposes) will be invested in U.S. and non-U.S. infrastructure-related issuers. The Fund

considers an issuer to be infrastructure-related if (i) at least 50% of the issuer's assets consist of infrastructure assets or (ii) at least 50% of the issuer's gross income or net profits are attributable to or derived, directly or indirectly, from the ownership, management, construction, development, operation, utilization or financing of infrastructure assets. Infrastructure assets are the physical structures and networks that provide necessary services to society. Examples of infrastructure assets include, but are not limited to, transportation assets (e.g., toll roads, bridges, tunnels, parking facilities, railroads, rapid transit links, airports, refueling facilities and seaports), utility assets (e.g., electric transmission and distribution lines, power generation facilities, gas and water distribution facilities and sewage treatment plants), communications assets (e.g., wireless telecommunication services, cable and satellite networks, broadcast and wireless towers), energy infrastructure assets (e.g., pipelines) and social assets (e.g., courthouses, hospitals, schools, correctional facilities, stadiums and subsidized housing).

The Fund may invest in issuers located anywhere in the world, including issuers located in emerging markets. Under normal circumstances, the Fund will invest in issuers from at least three different countries and will invest significantly (at least 40% of its total assets - unless market conditions are not deemed favorable by the Adviser, in which case the Fund would invest at least 30% of its total assets) in non-U.S. issuers. A company is considered a non-U.S. issuer if Fund management determines that the company meets one or more of the following criteria:

It is currently anticipated that, under normal circumstances, the Fund's investments in emerging market issuers will not exceed 30% of the Fund's total assets. At times, the Fund may have a significant amount of its assets invested in a country or geographic region. The Fund may invest in securities denominated in U.S. Dollars and currencies of foreign countries.

The Fund's investment portfolio generally will be comprised of the following:

• Public Infrastructure Investments. The Fund will, under normal circumstances, invest at least 60%, and generally expects to invest approximately 75%, of its total assets in listed equity securities of infrastructure-related issuers. Equity securities in which the Fund

intends to invest include primarily common stocks, preferred stocks and depositary receipts. The Fund may invest in securities of any market capitalization. During the period of initial investment in Private Infrastructure Opportunities (defined below), and as the Fund approaches the end of its 15-year term, the Fund may invest up to 100% of its total assets in public infrastructure investments.

• Private/Direct Infrastructure Investments. Under normal circumstances, the Fund will invest at least 10%, and currently intends to generally invest closer to 25%, of its total assets, measured at the time of investment, in infrastructure assets through private transactions ("Private Infrastructure Opportunities"). A "private transaction" means an investment in infrastructure assets through the purchase of securities in a transaction that is exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"). Private Infrastructure Opportunities include investments in: (i) sponsor vehicles created for the purpose of investing in private infrastructure companies or assets, as described below; (ii) private infrastructure operating companies; and (iii) to a lesser extent, private equity funds that invest in infrastructure assets. Private Infrastructure Opportunities may include investments alongside other funds or accounts advised by the Adviser or its affiliates in certain infrastructure assets ("Co-Investment Opportunities") or on a stand-alone basis alongside other investors ("Stand-Alone Opportunities"). Unless and until the Fund receives an exemptive order from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") to co-invest in negotiated Co-Investment Opportunities (which cannot be assured), the Fund will only invest in Co-Investment Opportunities where the transaction is permitted under existing regulatory guidance, such as transactions in which price is the only negotiated term. Certain Co-Investment Opportunities and Standalone Opportunities may be issued by sponsor vehicles structured, for administrative and/or tax purposes, as funds that would be investment companies but for the provisions of Section 3(c)(1) or 3(c)(7) of the 1940 Act ("sponsor vehicles"). Such sponsor vehicles do not generally have the same characteristics as funds relying on Section 3(c)(1) or 3(c)(7) that are commonly known as "private equity funds". The Fund will not invest in funds commonly known as "private equity funds". The Fund will invest no more than 15% of its net assets, measured at the time of investment, in all sponsor vehicles and no more than 3% of its net assets, measured at the time of investment, in a single sponsor vehicle. In addition, at all times, the Fund will own only a minority ownership interest (i.e., less than 50%) in any sponsor vehicle in which it invests.

As a result of the relatively limited availability of Private Infrastructure Opportunities, the Fund may have a lower percentage of its total assets invested in Private Infrastructure Opportunities, and a higher percentage of its assets invested in publicly listed infrastructure issuers, during the initial 24 months following inception. In addition, as the

Fund disposes of individual Private Infrastructure Opportunities, the Fund will look to redeploy its capital into new Private Infrastructure Opportunities, which may be scarce. As the Fund approaches the end of its 15-year term, the Fund may refrain from making new investments in Private Infrastructure Opportunities, if necessary, for liquidity purposes, and increase its allocation to listed infrastructure investments. During such periods, the Fund may have a lower percentage of its total assets invested in Private Infrastructure Opportunities.

In addition, the Fund may use derivative instruments from time to time, primarily to hedge currency exposure, although it is not required to do so. To the extent the Fund invests in derivative instruments that provide economic exposure to infrastructure-related issuers, such investments will be counted for purposes of the Fund's 80% investment policy. The Fund will value derivatives based on market value or fair value for purposes of its 80% investment policy.

In selecting public infrastructure investments, the Adviser's and Sub-Adviser's Global Equity Team employs a fundamental, bottom-up investment process, based on first-hand research and disciplined company evaluation. As active equity investors, ASI uses deep fundamental research, responsible stewardship around environmental, social and governance factors and a disciplined investment process to pursue the Fund's investment objective.

With respect to the Fund's private/direct infrastructure investments, ASI's real assets investment team's (the "Real Assets Team") process combines the team's expertise in sourcing, diligencing and monitoring Private Infrastructure Opportunities developed over the past decade. ASI maintains a database of hundreds of industry contacts and tracks a vast number of investment opportunities on an ongoing basis. ASI uses this informational advantage, combined with first hand research, a disciplined due diligence process and its experience and understanding of the infrastructure sector and the related risks, in order to select Private Infrastructure Opportunities that the team believes will help it achieve the Fund's investment objective. The Real Assets Team pursues Private Infrastructure Opportunities as a means of dynamically allocating capital and taking advantage of specific market opportunities. The Adviser believes that these opportunities can generate incremental returns depending on the timing and quality of available opportunities.

The Fund may invest up to 20% of its net assets in securities issued by companies that are not infrastructure companies. The Fund may also invest in debt securities, which the Fund currently expects will consist primarily of short-term debt obligations, cash or cash equivalents at times when deemed favorable by the Adviser.

The Fund intends to achieve the income component of its investment objective by investing in dividend-paying listed equity securities and

Private Infrastructure Opportunities. Until the Fund is invested in Private Infrastructure Opportunities in accordance with its investment policies, up to 5% of the Fund's total assets may be invested in accordance with a dividend capture strategy whereby the Fund may buy a security prior to the record date of its dividend and sell such security after the record date of its dividend. See "Operational Risks - Portfolio Turnover Risk," below.

Unless otherwise stated herein or in the statement of additional information, the Fund's investment policies are non-fundamental policies and may be changed by the Board without prior shareholder approval. The Fund's policy to invest at least 80% of its net assets (plus any borrowings for investment purposes) in U.S. and non-U.S. infrastructure-related issuers may be changed by the Board without shareholder approval; however, if this policy changes, the Fund will provide shareholders at least 60 days' written notice before implementation of the change in compliance with SEC rules. Unless otherwise stated, these investment restrictions apply at the time of purchase; the Fund will not be required to reduce a position due solely to market price fluctuations.

During the period in which the Fund is investing the net proceeds of its offering, the Fund may deviate from its investment policies by investing the net proceeds in money market mutual funds; cash; cash equivalents; securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government or its instrumentalities or agencies; high quality, short-term money market instruments; short-term debt securities; certificates of deposit; bankers' acceptances and other bank obligations; commercial paper or other liquid debt securities. Under adverse market or economic conditions, the Fund may invest up to 100% of its total assets in these securities. In addition, immediately leading up to the date of the Fund's dissolution, as described in its Declaration of Trust (the "Termination Date"), in connection with an Eligible Tender Offer (as defined in the Fund's prospectus), the Fund may invest a significant portion of its assets in these securities on a temporary basis. To the extent the Fund invests in these securities, the Fund may not achieve its investment objective.

INVESTMENT SECURITIES

The types of securities in which the Fund may invest include, but are not limited to, the following:

Equity securities

Equity investments generally represent an ownership interest, or the right to acquire an ownership interest, in an issuer. Different types of equity securities provide different voting and dividend rights and priority in the event of an issuer's bankruptcy. Prices of equity securities fluctuate for several reasons, including because of changes, or perceived changes, in the business, financial condition or prospects of the issuer

or because of changes in financial or political conditions that may affect particular industries or the economy in general.

Common Stock. Holders of common stock generally have voting rights with respect to the issuer, however, the Fund does not expect to have voting control with respect to any of the issuers of listed equity securities in which it invests, and it will not have voting control with respect to some or all of the Fund's private investments. Upon the liquidation or winding up of the issuer, holders of common stock are entitled to the assets of the issuer that remain after satisfying all obligations owed to the issuer's creditors, including holders of debt securities, and holders of the issuer's preferred stock. Holders of common stock also may receive dividends, however, unlike the dividends payable with respect to preferred stock (which is described below), dividends payable with respect to common stock are not fixed but are declared at the discretion of the issuer's board of directors.

Preferred Equity. Upon the liquidation or winding up of the issuer, holders of preferred equity have a preference over holders of the issuer's common equity, however, their claims to the assets of the issuer are subordinated to the claims of the issuer's creditors, including holders of debt securities. Holders of preferred equity also receive distributions or dividends at a specified annual rate, although this rate may be changed or omitted by the issuer under certain circumstances. Market prices of preferred equities generally fluctuate with changes in market interest rates. Under normal conditions, holders of preferred equity usually do not have voting rights with respect to the issuer.

Depositary Receipts. Depositary receipts typically issued by a bank or trust company, represent the ownership of underlying securities that are issued by a foreign company and held by the bank or trust company. American Depositary Receipts ("ADRs") are usually issued by a U.S. bank trust or trust company and traded on a U.S. exchange. Global Depositary Receipts ("GDRs") may be issued by institutions located anywhere in the world and traded in any securities market. European Depositary Receipts ("EDRs") are issued in Europe and used in bearer form in European markets.

Depositary receipts may or may not be jointly sponsored by the underlying issuer. The issuers of unsponsored depositary receipts are not obligated to disclose information that is, in the United States, considered material. Therefore, there may be less information available regarding these issuers and there may not be a correlation between such information and the market value of the depositary receipts. Certain depositary receipts are not listed on an exchange and therefore may lack liquidity.

Restricted securities, including securities of private companies

Restricted securities, including Rule 144A securities and securities of private companies, are subject to statutory and/or contractual restrictions on resale. However, such securities may be sold in private

transactions with a limited number of purchasers or in public offerings registered under the Securities Act. Restricted securities include (1) registered securities of public companies subject to a lock-up period, (2) unregistered securities of public companies with registration rights, (3) unregistered securities of public companies that become freely tradable with the passage of time and (4) unregistered securities of private companies. A registered security subject to such a lock-up period will no longer be considered a restricted security upon expiration of the lock-up period, an unregistered security of a public company with registration rights will no longer be considered a restricted security when such securities become registered, and an unregistered security of a public company that becomes freely tradable with the passage of time will no longer be considered a restricted security upon the elapse of the requisite time period.

Non-U.S. securities

The Fund may invest without limit in securities issued by non-U.S. issuers. These securities may be issued by companies organized and/or having securities traded on an exchange outside the U.S. or may be securities of U.S. companies that are denominated in the currency of a different country. It is currently anticipated that, under normal circumstances, the Fund may invest up to 30% of its total assets in securities of emerging market issuers.

Temporary investments

Pending investment of the proceeds of the offering (which the Fund expects may take up to approximately one month following the closing of the offering), the Fund may invest offering proceeds in money market mutual funds; cash; cash equivalents; securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government or its instrumentalities or agencies; high quality, short-term money market instruments; short-term debt securities; certificates of deposit; bankers' acceptances and other bank obligations; commercial paper or other liquid debt securities. The Fund also may invest in these instruments on a temporary basis to meet working capital needs, including, but not limited to, for collateral in connection with certain investment techniques, to hold a reserve pending payment of distributions and to facilitate the payment of expenses and settlement of trades.

Under adverse market or economic conditions, the Fund may invest up to 100% of its total assets in these securities on a temporary basis. In addition, immediately leading up to the Termination Date, in connection with the Eligible Tender Offer, the Fund may invest a significant portion of its assets in these securities on a temporary basis. To the extent the Fund invests in these securities, it may not achieve its investment objective. The yield on these securities may be lower than the returns on equity securities or yields on lower rated debt securities.

Portfolio turnover

The Fund's annual portfolio turnover rate may vary greatly from year to year. The Fund may engage in frequent and active trading of portfolio securities, but does not intend to do so under normal circumstances. The Fund's portfolio turnover is expected to be higher during the initial 12-24 months following the closing of the offering as it transitions a portion of its publicly traded securities portfolio to Private Infrastructure Opportunities.

Although the Fund's portfolio turnover rate cannot be accurately predicted, following the completion of the Private Infrastructure Opportunities approximately 24 months following the closing of the offering, the Fund expects to maintain relatively low turnover of its core investment portfolio. During its initial investment period, however, the Fund's annual turnover rate may exceed 100%. A high turnover rate involves greater transaction costs for the Fund and may result in greater realization of taxable capital gains.

Allocation of investment opportunities

The portfolio managers' management of other accounts may give rise to potential conflicts of interest in connection with their management of the Fund's investments, on the one hand, and the investments of the other accounts, on the other. The other accounts may have the same or similar investment objective as the Fund. Therefore, a potential conflict of interest may arise as a result of the identical or similar investment objectives, whereby a portfolio manager could favor one account over another. However, the Adviser believes that these risks are mitigated by the fact that: (i) accounts with like investment strategies managed by a particular portfolio manager are generally managed in a similar fashion, subject to exceptions to account for particular investment restrictions or policies applicable only to certain accounts, differences in cash flows and account sizes, and similar factors; and (ii) portfolio manager personal trading is monitored to avoid potential conflicts. In addition, the Adviser and Sub-Adviser have adopted trade allocation procedures that require equitable allocation of trade orders for a particular security among participating accounts.

In some cases, another account managed by the same portfolio manager may compensate ASI based on the performance of the portfolio held by that account. The existence of such a performance-based fee may create additional conflicts of interest for the portfolio manager in the allocation of management time, resources and investment opportunities.

Another potential conflict could include instances in which securities considered as investments for the Fund also may be appropriate for other investment accounts managed by the Adviser or its affiliates. Whenever decisions are made to buy or sell securities by the Fund and one or more of the other accounts simultaneously, the Adviser may aggregate the purchases and sales of the securities and will allocate

the securities transactions in a manner that it believes to be equitable under the circumstances. As a result of the allocations, there may be instances where the Fund will not participate in a transaction that is allocated among other accounts. While these aggregation and allocation policies could have a detrimental effect on the price or amount of the securities available to the Fund from time to time, it is the opinion of the Adviser that the benefits from the policies outweigh any disadvantage that may arise from exposure to simultaneous transactions. The Fund has adopted policies that are designed to eliminate or minimize conflicts of interest, although there is no guarantee that procedures adopted under such policies will detect each and every situation in which a conflict arises.

The Adviser also has adopted written allocation procedures for transactions involving private placement securities, which are designed to result in a fair and equitable participation in offerings or sales for participating clients over time.

From time to time, the Adviser or the Sub-Adviser may seed proprietary accounts for the purpose of evaluating a new investment strategy that eventually may be available to clients through one or more product structures. Such accounts also may serve the purpose of establishing a performance record for the strategy. The management by the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser of accounts with proprietary interests and nonproprietary client accounts may create an incentive to favor the proprietary accounts in the allocation of investment opportunities, and the timing and aggregation of investments. The Adviser's and Sub-Adviser's proprietary seed accounts may include long-short strategies, and certain client strategies may permit short sales. A conflict of interest arises if a security is sold short at the same time as a long position, and continuous short selling in a security may adversely affect the stock price of the same security held long in client accounts. The Adviser and Sub-Adviser have adopted various policies to mitigate these conflicts.

Situations may occur when the Fund could be disadvantaged because of the investment activities conducted by the Adviser, the Sub-Adviser and their affiliates for other accounts. Such situations may be based on, among other things, the following: (1) legal or internal restrictions on the combined size of positions that may be taken for the Fund or the other accounts, thereby limiting the size of the Fund's position; (2) the difficulty of liquidating an investment for the Fund or the other accounts where the market cannot absorb the sale of the combined position; or (3) regulatory restrictions on transaction with affiliates.

The 1940 Act and a rule thereunder impose limits on the Fund's ability to participate in Co-Investment Opportunities, and the Fund generally will not be permitted to co-invest alongside other funds registered under the 1940 Act and other accounts managed by the Adviser in privately negotiated transactions unless the Fund obtains an exemptive order from the SEC or the transaction is otherwise permitted under

existing regulatory guidance, such as certain transactions in publicly traded securities and transactions in which price is the only negotiated term. To the extent an investment opportunity in a transaction involving the negotiation of any term of the investment other than price or quantity (a "negotiated transaction") arises, and the Adviser determines that it would be appropriate for both the Fund and other accounts managed by the Adviser, the opportunity will be allocated to the other accounts and the Fund will not participate in the negotiated transaction.

To the extent that the Adviser sources and structures private investments in publicly traded issuers, certain employees of the Adviser may become aware of actions planned by such issuers, such as acquisitions, which may not be announced to the public. It is possible that the Fund could be precluded from investing in or selling securities of an issuer about which the Adviser has material, non-public information, however, it is the Adviser's intention to ensure that any material, non-public information available to certain employees of the Adviser is not shared with the employees responsible for the purchase and sale of publicly traded securities or to confirm prior to receipt of any material non-public information that the information will shortly be made public. The Fund's investment opportunities also may be limited by affiliations of the Adviser, the Sub-Adviser or their affiliates with infrastructure companies.

The Adviser, the Sub-Adviser and their respective principals, officers, employees and affiliates may buy and sell securities or other investments for their own accounts and may have actual or potential conflicts of interest with respect to investments made on the Fund's behalf. As a result of differing trading and investment strategies or constraints, positions may be taken by principals, officers, employees and affiliates of the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser that are the same as, different from or made at a different time from positions taken for the Fund. Further, the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser may at some time in the future, manage additional investment funds with the same investment objective as the Fund. See "Operational Risks - Potential Conflicts of Interest," below.

Hedging and risk management

The Fund may utilize derivative instruments for hedging and risk management purposes. In particular, the Fund may use foreign currency contracts to hedge currency exposure from time to time, but it is not required to hedge its currency exposure.

Risk Factors

The Fund is designed as a long-term investment vehicle and not as a trading tool. An investment in the Fund's common shares should not constitute a complete investment program for any investor and involves a high degree of risk. Due to the uncertainty in all investments, there can be no assurance that the Fund will achieve its investment

objective. The value of an investment in the Fund's common shares could decline substantially and cause you to lose some or all of your investment. Before investing in the Fund's common shares you should consider carefully the following principal risks of investing in the Funds.

General

Management Risk. The Fund's ability to achieve its investment objective is directly related to the Adviser's and the Sub-Adviser's investment strategies for the Fund. The value of your investment in the Fund's common shares may vary with the effectiveness of the research and analysis conducted by the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser and their ability to identify and take advantage of attractive investment opportunities. If the investment strategies of the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser do not produce the expected results, the value of your investment could be diminished or even lost entirely, and the Fund could underperform the market or other funds with similar investment objectives. Additionally, there can be no assurance that all of the personnel of the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser will continue to be associated with the Adviser or Sub-Adviser for any length of time. The loss of the services of one or more key employees of the Adviser or Sub-Adviser could have an adverse impact on the Fund's ability to realize its investment objective.

Asset Allocation Risk. The Fund's investment performance depends, at least in part, on how the Adviser allocates and reallocates the Fund's assets among the various asset classes and security types in which the Fund may invest. Such allocation decisions could cause the Fund's investments to be allocated to asset classes and security types that perform poorly or underperform other asset classes and security types or available investments.

Non-Diversified Risk. The Fund is classified as a "non-diversified" investment company under the 1940 Act. Therefore, the Fund may invest a relatively high percentage of its assets in a smaller number of issuers or may invest a larger proportion of its assets in a single issuer than a diversified fund. As a result, the Fund may be more susceptible than a diversified fund to any single corporate, political, geographic or regulatory occurrence.

Limited Term and Tender Offer Risk. The Fund is scheduled to dissolve as of the Termination Date. The Fund's investment policies are not designed to return to common shareholders their original net asset value or purchase price. The final distribution to common shareholders on the Termination Date and the amount paid to participating common shareholders upon completion of an Eligible Tender Offer will be based upon the Fund's net asset value at such time. Depending on a variety of factors, including the performance of the Fund's investment portfolio over the period of its operations, the amount distributed to common shareholders in connection with its termination or paid to participating common shareholders upon completion of an Eligible Tender Offer may be less, and potentially significantly less, than your original

investment. Additionally, although tendering shareholders will receive an amount equal to net asset value for their shares in an Eligible Tender Offer, given the nature of certain of the Fund's investments, the Fund's net asset value may be impacted by the sale of such investments and, as a result, the amount actually distributed upon the Fund's termination may be less than the Fund's net asset value per share on the Termination Date, and the amount actually paid upon completion of an Eligible Tender Offer may be less than the Fund's net asset value per share on the expiration date of the Eligible Tender Offer.

Because the Fund's assets will be liquidated in connection with its termination or to pay for common shares tendered in an Eligible Tender Offer, the Fund may be required to sell portfolio securities when it otherwise would not, including at times when market conditions are not favorable, which may cause the Fund to lose money. Given the nature of certain of the Fund's investments, particularly the Private Infrastructure Opportunities, the Fund may be unable to liquidate certain of its investments until well after the Termination Date. In this case, the Fund may make one or more additional distributions after the Termination Date of any cash received from the ultimate liquidation of those investments. This would delay distribution payments, perhaps for an extended period of time, and there can be no assurance that the total value of the cash distribution made on the Termination Date and such subsequent distributions, if any, will equal the Fund's net asset value on the Termination Date, depending on the ultimate results of such post-Termination Date asset liquidations. If, as a result of lack of market liquidity or other adverse market conditions, the Board of Trustees determines it is in the best interest of the Fund, the Fund may transfer any illiquid portfolio investments that remain unsold on the Termination Date to a liquidating trust and distribute interests in such liquidating trust to common shareholders as part of its final distribution. The liquidating trust, if used, would be a separate entity from the Fund and, in reliance on Section 7 of the 1940 Act, would not be a registered investment company under the 1940 Act. Interests in the liquidating trust are expected to be nontransferable, except by operation of law. The sole purpose of the liquidating trust would be to hold illiquid investments of the Fund that were unable to be sold and to dispose of such investments. As such investments are sold over time by the liquidating trust, the liquidating trust would distribute cash to its shareholders. There can be no assurance as to the timing of or the value obtained from the liquidation of any investments transferred to a liquidating trust.

The obligation to terminate on the Termination Date also may impact adversely the implementation of the Fund's investment strategies. There can be no assurance that the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser will be successful in their efforts to minimize any detrimental effects on the Fund's investment performance caused by the Fund's obligation to liquidate its investment portfolio and distribute all of its liquidated net

assets to common shareholders of record on the Termination Date. In particular, the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser may face difficulties exiting the Private Infrastructure Opportunities on or prior to the Termination Date at favorable prices, if at all. In addition, as the Fund approaches the Termination Date, the Fund may invest the proceeds of sold, matured or called securities in money market mutual funds; cash; cash equivalents; securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government or its instrumentalities or agencies; high quality, short-term money market instruments; short-term debt securities; certificates of deposit; bankers' acceptances and other bank obligations; commercial paper or other liquid debt securities, which may adversely affect the Fund's investment performance. In the course of the liquidation, the Fund must continue to satisfy the asset diversification requirements to qualify as a RIC for federal income tax purposes, which may also have a negative effect on the Fund's investment performance. If the Fund fails to comply with these requirements, it may be liable for federal income tax in the year of the liquidation. Moreover, rather than reinvesting the proceeds of sold, matured or called securities, the Fund may distribute the proceeds in one or more liquidating distributions prior to the final liquidation, which may cause fixed expenses to increase when expressed as a percentage of its total assets.

If the Fund conducts an Eligible Tender Offer, it anticipates that funds to pay the aggregate purchase price of common shares accepted for purchase pursuant to the tender offer will be first derived from any cash on hand and then from the proceeds from the sale of portfolio investments. In addition, the Fund may be required to dispose of portfolio investments in connection with any reduction in any outstanding leverage necessary in order to maintain its desired leverage ratios following an Eligible Tender Offer. The risks related to the disposition of portfolio investments in connection with the Fund's termination also would be present in connection with the disposition of portfolio investments in connection with an Eligible Tender Offer. It is likely that during the pendency of an Eligible Tender Offer, and possibly for a time thereafter, the Fund will hold a greater than normal percentage of its total assets in money market mutual funds; cash; cash equivalents; securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government or its instrumentalities or agencies; high quality, short-term money market instruments; short-term debt securities; certificates of deposit; bankers' acceptances and other bank obligations; commercial paper or other liquid debt securities, which may adversely affect its investment performance. If the Fund's tax basis for the portfolio investments sold is less than the sale proceeds, the Fund will recognize capital gains, which it will be required to distribute to common shareholders. In addition, the Fund's purchase of tendered common shares pursuant to an Eligible Tender Offer will have tax consequences for tendering common shareholders and may have tax consequences for non-tendering common shareholders. The purchase of common shares pursuant to an Eligible Tender Offer will have the

effect of increasing the proportionate interest in the Fund of non-tendering common shareholders. All shareholders remaining after an Eligible Tender Offer will be subject to proportionately higher expenses due to the reduction in the Fund's total assets resulting from payment for the tendered common shares. Such reduction in the Fund's total assets also may result in less investment flexibility, reduced diversification and greater volatility for the Fund, and may have an adverse effect on the Fund's investment performance.

The Fund is not required to conduct an Eligible Tender Offer. If the Fund conducts an Eligible Tender Offer, there can be no assurance that the number of tendered common shares would not result in the Fund's net assets totaling less than the Termination Threshold, in which case the Eligible Tender Offer will be terminated, no common shares will be repurchased pursuant to the Eligible Tender Offer and the Fund will terminate on the Termination Date subject to permitted extensions. Following the completion of an Eligible Tender Offer in which the number of tendered common shares would result in the Fund's net assets totaling greater than the Termination Threshold, the Board of Trustees may eliminate the Termination Date upon the affirmative vote of a majority of the Board of Trustees and without a vote of the shareholders. Thereafter, the Fund will have a perpetual existence. The Adviser may have a conflict of interest in recommending to the Board of Trustees that the Termination Date be eliminated and the Fund have a perpetual existence. The Fund is not required to conduct additional tender offers following an Eligible Tender Offer and conversion to perpetual existence. Therefore, remaining common shareholders may not have another opportunity to participate in a tender offer. Shares of closed-end management investment companies frequently trade at a discount from their net asset value, and as a result remaining common shareholders may only be able to sell their common shares at a discount to net asset value. See "- Operational Risks - Market Discount Risk."

Infrastructure-related investments risk

Infrastructure-related issuers may be subject to a variety of factors that may adversely affect their business or operations, including high interest costs in connection with capital construction programs, high leverage, costs associated with environmental and other regulations, the effects of economic slowdown, surplus capacity, increased competition from other providers of services, uncertainties concerning the availability of fuel at reasonable prices, the effects of energy conservation policies and other factors. The following is a summary of specific risks that infrastructure-related issuers may be particularly affected by or subject to:

Regulatory Risk. Infrastructure-related issuers may be subject to regulation by various governmental authorities and may also be affected by governmental regulation of rates charged to services, the

imposition of special tariffs and changes in tax laws, environmental laws and regulations, regulatory policies, accounting standards and general changes in market sentiment towards infrastructure assets. Infrastructure-related issuers' inability to predict, influence or respond appropriately to changes in law or regulatory schemes could adversely impact their results of operations.

Technology Risk. This risk arises where a change could occur in the way a service or product is delivered rendering the existing technology obsolete. If such a change were to occur, these assets may have very few alternative uses should they become obsolete.

Developing Industries Risk. Some infrastructure-related issuers are focused on developing new technologies and are strongly influenced by technological changes. Product development efforts by such issuers may not result in viable commercial products. These issuers may bear high research and development costs, which can limit their ability to maintain operations during periods of organizational growth or instability. Some infrastructure-related issuers in which the Fund invests may be in the early stages of operations and may have limited operating histories and smaller market capitalizations on average than issuers in other sectors. As a result of these and other factors, the value of investments in such issuers may be considerably more volatile than that in more established segments of the economy.

Regional or Geographic Risk. This risk arises where an infrastructure-related issuer's assets are not movable. Should an event that somehow impairs the performance of an infrastructure-related issuer's assets occur in the geographic location where the issuer operates those assets, the performance of the issuer may be adversely affected.

Natural Disasters Risk. Natural risks, such as earthquakes, flood, lightning, hurricanes and wind, are risks facing certain infrastructure-related issuers. Extreme weather patterns, or the threat thereof, could result in substantial damage to the facilities of certain issuers located in the affected areas, and significant volatility in the products or services of infrastructure-related issuers could adversely impact the prices of the securities of such issuer.

Volume Risk. The revenue of many infrastructure - related issuers may be impacted by the number of users who use the products or services produced by the infrastructure-related issuer. A significant decrease in the number of users may negatively impact the profitability of an infrastructure-related issuer.

Environmental Risk. Infrastructure-related issuers can have substantial environmental impacts. Ordinary operations or operational accidents may cause major environmental damage, which could cause infrastructure-related issuers significant financial distress, substantial liabilities for environmental cleanup and restoration costs, claims made by neighboring landowners and other third parties for personal injury

and property damage, and fines or penalties for related violations of environmental laws or regulations. Infrastructure-related issuers may not be able to recover these costs from insurance. Failure to comply with environmental laws and regulations may trigger a variety of administrative, civil and criminal enforcement measures, including the assessment of monetary penalties, the imposition of remedial requirements, and the issuance of orders enjoining future operations. Voluntary initiatives and mandatory controls have been adopted or are being discussed both in the United States and worldwide to reduce emissions of "greenhouse gases" such as carbon dioxide, a by-product of burning fossil fuels, and methane, the major constituent of natural gas, which many scientists and policymakers believe contribute to global climate change. These measures and future measures could result in increased costs to certain companies in which the Fund may invest.

Project Risk. To the extent the Fund invests in infrastructure-related issuers which are dependent to a significant extent on new infrastructure projects, the Fund may be exposed to the risk that the project will not be completed within budget, within the agreed time frame or to agreed specifications.

Strategic Asset Risk. Infrastructure-related issuers may control significant strategic assets. Strategic assets are assets that have a national or regional profile, and may have monopolistic characteristics. Given the national or regional profile and/or their irreplaceable nature, strategic assets may constitute a higher risk target for terrorist acts or political actions. There is also a higher probability that the services provided by such issuers will be in constant demand. Should an infrastructure-related issuer fail to make such services available, users of such services may incur significant damage and may be unable to mitigate any such damage, thereby heightening any potential loss.

Operation Risk. The long-term profitability of an infrastructure-related issuer may be partly dependent on the efficient operation and maintenance of its infrastructure assets. Should an infrastructure-related issuer fail to efficiently maintain and operate the assets, the infrastructure-related issuer's ability to maintain payments of dividends or interest to investors may be impaired. The destruction or loss of an infrastructure asset may have a major impact on the infrastructure-related issuer. Failure by the infrastructure-related issuer to carry adequate insurance or to operate the asset appropriately could lead to significant losses and damages.

Customer Risk. Infrastructure-related issuers can have a narrow customer base. Should these customers or counterparties fail to pay their contractual obligations, significant revenues could cease and not be replaceable. This would affect the profitability of the infrastructure-related issuer and the value of any securities or other instruments it has issued.

Interest Rate Risk. Infrastructure assets can be highly leveraged. As such, movements in the level of interest rates may affect the returns from these assets more significantly than other assets. Due to the nature of infrastructure assets, the impact of interest rate fluctuations may be greater for infrastructure-related issuers than for the economy as a whole.

Inflation Risk. Many infrastructure-related issuers may have fixed income streams and, therefore, be unable to pay higher dividends. The market value of infrastructure-related issuers may decline in value in times of higher inflation rates. The prices that an infrastructure-related issuer is able to charge users of its assets may not always be linked to inflation. In this case, changes in the rate of inflation may affect the forecast profitability of the infrastructure-related issuer.

Financing Risk. From time to time, infrastructure-related issuers may encounter difficulties in obtaining financing for construction programs during inflationary periods. Issuers experiencing difficulties in financing construction programs may also experience lower profitability, which can result in reduced income to the Fund.

Other factors that may affect the operations of infrastructure-related issuers include difficulty in raising capital in adequate amounts on reasonable terms in periods of high inflation and unsettled capital markets, inexperience with and potential losses resulting from a developing deregulatory environment, increased susceptibility to terrorist acts or political actions, and general changes in market sentiment towards infrastructure assets.

In addition, as discussed more fully below under "- Industry Specific Risks," infrastructure-related issuers are subject to risks that are specific to the industry in which they operate. Certain of these industries have been impacted, or may be impacted in the future, by COVID-19. In particular, the transportation industry and certain portions of the energy industry have been negatively impacted by restrictions on travel and related declines in the price of oil. Other infrastructure industries have shown resilience in light of COVID-19, for example, communications and necessary assets, such as utilities; however, there is no guarantee as to how these industries, or the Fund's investments generally, will perform in the future. The Adviser intends to monitor developments and seek to manage the Fund's portfolio in a manner consistent with achieving the Fund's investment objective, but there can be no assurance that it will be successful in doing so. For more information about risks related to COVID-19, see "- Recent Events Risk."

Industry specific risks

The following is a summary of industry specific risks that infrastructure-related issuers may be particularly affected by or subject to:

Utility Sector Risk. When interest rates go up, the value of securities issued by utilities companies historically has gone down. In most countries and localities, the utilities sector is regulated by governmental entities, which can increase costs and delays for new projects and make it difficult to pass increased costs on to consumers. In certain areas, deregulation of utilities has resulted in increased competition and reduced profitability for certain companies, and increased the risk that a particular company will become bankrupt or fail completely. Reduced profitability, as well as new uses for or additional need of funds (such as for expansion, operations or stock buybacks), could result in reduced dividend payout rates for utilities companies. In addition, utilities companies face the risk of increases in the cost and reduced availability of fuel (such as oil, coal, natural gas or nuclear energy) and potentially high interest costs for borrowing to finance new projects.

Communications Sector Risk. The communications sector is subject to extensive government regulation. The costs of complying with governmental regulations, delays or failure to receive required regulatory approvals, or the enactment of new regulatory requirements may negatively affect the business of communications companies. Government actions around the world can be arbitrary and unpredictable. Companies in the communications sector may encounter distressed cash flows due to the need to commit substantial capital to meet increasing competition, particularly in developing new products and services using new technology. Technological innovations may make the products and services of certain communications companies obsolete. Communications providers are generally required to obtain franchises or licenses in order to provide services in a given location. Licensing and franchise rights in the communications sector are limited, which may provide an advantage to certain participants. Limited availability of such rights, high barriers to market entry and regulatory oversight, among other factors, have led to consolidation of companies within the sector, which could lead to further regulation or other negative effects in the future.

Transportation Infrastructure Sector Risk. Issuers in the transportation infrastructure sector can be significantly affected by economic changes, fuel prices, labor relations, technology developments, exchange rates, industry competition, insurance costs and deteriorating public infrastructure, such as bridges, roads, rails, ports and airports. Transportation companies in certain countries may also be subject to significant government regulation and oversight, which may adversely affect their businesses. Other risk factors that may affect the transportation infrastructure sector include the risk of increases in fuel and other operating costs and the effects of regulatory changes or other government decisions. Companies in the transportation infrastructure sector may be adversely affected by adverse weather, pandemics, acts of terrorism or catastrophic events, such as air

accidents, train crashes or tunnel fires. Most recently, the transportation infrastructure sector was negatively impacted by COVID-19 and the resulting restrictions on travel. Companies in the transportation infrastructure sector may also be subject to the risk of widespread disruption of technology systems and increasing equipment and operational costs.

Energy Infrastructure Sector Risk. The Fund is subject to adverse economic, environmental, business, regulatory or other occurrences affecting the energy infrastructure sector. The energy infrastructure sector has historically experienced substantial price volatility. Most recently, the energy infrastructure sector was negatively impacted by reduced demand for oil and other energy commodities and resulting declines in commodity prices as a result of the slowdown in economic activity resulting from the pandemic spread of COVID-19 and by price competition among key oil-producing countries. Companies operating in the energy infrastructure sector are subject to specific risks that could cause the value of the Fund to decline, including, among others: fluctuations in commodity prices; fluctuations in consumer demand for commodities such as oil, natural gas or petroleum products; fluctuations in the supply of oil, natural gas or other commodities for transporting, processing, storing or delivering; slowdowns in new construction; extreme weather or other natural disasters; pandemics; and threats of terrorist attacks. Additionally, changes in economic conditions of key energy producing and consuming countries, domestic and foreign government regulations, international politics, policies of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC), taxation and tariffs may adversely impact the profitability of energy infrastructure companies. Moreover, energy infrastructure companies may incur environmental costs and liabilities due to the nature of their businesses and substances handled. Over time, depletion of natural gas reserves and other energy reserves may also affect the profitability of energy infrastructure companies.

Social Assets Sector Risk. Social infrastructure assets are those that accommodate social services, including, for example, courthouses, hospitals, schools, correctional facilities, stadiums and subsidized housing. Social assets are subject to additional risks to those of other investments in the infrastructure sector, such as political, regulatory and social risks. Most social infrastructure assets generate fixed cash flows based on the regulatory framework set by the governments that operate the projects. Social infrastructure projects may operate as public-private partnerships. Ambiguous risk-sharing arrangements between private capital providers and government entities can increase the risks related to future liabilities of social infrastructure projects.

Market events risk

The market values of securities or other assets will fluctuate, sometimes sharply and unpredictably, due to changes in general market conditions, overall economic trends or events, governmental

actions or intervention, actions taken by the U.S. Federal Reserve or foreign central banks, market disruptions caused by trade disputes or other factors, political developments, investor sentiment and other factors that may or may not be related to the issuer of the security or other asset. Economies and financial markets throughout the world are increasingly interconnected. Economic, financial or political events, trading and tariff arrangements, terrorism, natural disasters and other circumstances in one country or region could have profound impacts on global economies or markets. As a result, whether or not the Fund invests in securities of issuers located in or with significant exposure to the countries directly affected, the value and liquidity of the Fund's investments may be negatively affected. In addition, any spread of an infectious illness, public health threat or similar issue could reduce consumer demand or economic output, result in market closures, travel restrictions or quarantines, and generally have a significant impact on the world economy, which in turn could adversely affect the Fund's investments.

Recent events risk.

COVID-19. Beginning in the first quarter of 2020, the illness caused by a novel coronavirus, COVID 19, has resulted in a global pandemic and major disruption to economies and markets around the world, including the United States. Financial markets have experienced extreme volatility and severe losses. Some sectors of the economy and individual issuers have experienced particularly large losses. These circumstances may continue for an extended period of time, and as a result may affect adversely the value and liquidity of the Fund's investments. To the extent the impacts of COVID-19 continue, the Fund may experience negative impacts to its business that could exacerbate other risks described in this prospectus, including:

The rapid development and fluidity of this situation precludes any prediction as to the ultimate adverse impact of COVID-19 on economic and market conditions, and, as a result, present uncertainty and risk with respect to the Fund and the performance of its investments and ability to pay distributions. The full extent of the impact and effects of COVID-19 will depend on future developments, including, among other factors, the duration and spread of the outbreak, along with related travel advisories, quarantines and restrictions, the recovery time of the disrupted supply chains and industries, the impact of labor market interruptions, the impact of government interventions, and uncertainty with respect to the duration of the global economic slowdown.

Europe Related Risk. A number of countries in Europe have experienced severe economic and financial difficulties. Many non-governmental issuers, and even certain governments, have defaulted on, or been forced to restructure, their debts; many other issuers have faced difficulties obtaining credit or refinancing existing obligations; financial institutions have in many cases required government or central bank support, have needed to raise capital, and/or have been impaired in their ability to extend credit; and financial markets in Europe and elsewhere have experienced extreme volatility and declines in asset values and liquidity. These difficulties may continue, worsen or spread within and outside Europe. Responses to the financial problems by European governments, central banks and others, including austerity measures and reforms, may not work, may result in social unrest and may limit future growth and economic recovery or have other unintended consequences. Further defaults or restructurings by governments and others of their debt could have additional adverse effects on economies, financial markets and asset valuations around the world.

In addition, the United Kingdom left the European Union on January 31, 2020 ("Brexit"). The ongoing negotiations surrounding the future relationship between the UK and the EU following UK's exit from the EU have yet to provide clarity on what the outcome will be for the UK, Europe, and the worldwide economy. During a prescribed period (the "Transition Period"), which ended on December 31, 2020, certain transitional arrangements were in effect, such that the United Kingdom continued to be treated, in most respects, as if it were still a member of the European Union, and generally remained subject to European Union law. On December 24, 2020, the European Union and the United Kingdom reached an agreement in principle on the terms of certain agreements and declarations governing the ongoing relationship between the European Union and the United Kingdom, including the

European Union-United Kingdom Trade and Cooperation Agreement (the "TCA"). The TCA is limited in its scope primarily to the trade of goods, transport, energy links and fishing; in particular the TCA does not make any meaningful provision for the financial services sector. Uncertainties remain relating to certain aspects of the United Kingdom's future economic, trading and legal relationships with the European Union and with other countries. However, the EU has not yet provided much material cushion from the effects of Brexit for financial services as a matter of EU law. The TCA has been provisionally applied since January 1, 2021 but cannot formally enter into force until ratified by the European Parliament. In the event that the European Parliament does not ratify the TCA before February 28, 2021, the relationship between the United Kingdom and the EU would be based on the World Trade Organization rules. Even under the TCA, many aspects of the United Kingdom-EU trade relationship remain subject to further negotiation. Due to political uncertainty, it is not possible to anticipate the form or nature of the future trading relationship between the United Kingdom and the EU. The Fund may face risks associated with the potential uncertainty and consequences that may follow Brexit, including with respect to potential volatility in exchange rates and interest rates. Whether or not the Fund invests in securities of issuers located in Europe (whether the EU, Eurozone or UK) or with significant exposure to European, EU, Eurozone or UK issuers or countries, the unavoidable uncertainties and events related to Brexit could negatively affect the value and liquidity of the Fund's investments, increase taxes and costs of business and cause volatility in currency exchange rates and interest rates. Brexit could adversely affect the performance of contracts and European, UK or worldwide political, regulatory, economic or market conditions and could contribute to instability in political institutions, regulatory agencies and financial markets. Brexit could also lead to legal uncertainty and politically divergent national laws and regulations as a new relationship between the UK and EU is defined and the UK determines which EU laws to replace or replicate. Any of these effects of Brexit, and others that cannot be anticipated, could adversely affect the Fund's business, results of operations and financial condition. In addition, the risk that Standard Life Aberdeen plc, the parent of the companies that provide investment advisory, sub-advisory and administration services to the Fund and which is headquartered in the UK, fails to adequately respond to Brexit could have significant customer, reputation and capital impacts for Standard Life Aberdeen plc and its subsidiaries, including those providing services to the Fund; however, Standard Life Aberdeen plc has detailed contingency planning in place to seek to manage the consequences of Brexit on the Fund and to manage any disruption to the Fund and to the services its subsidiaries provide. Given the fluidity and complexity of the situation, however, it cannot assured that the Fund will not be adversely impacted despite preparations.

Equity securities risk

Equity Securities Risk, Including Common Stock Risk. Market prices of common stocks and other equity securities may be affected by macroeconomic and other factors affecting the stock market in general, including changes in financial or political conditions that may affect particular industries or the economy in general and changes in investor sentiment. Prices of equity securities of individual issuers also can be affected by fundamentals unique to the issuer, including changes, or perceived changes, in the issuer's business, financial condition or prospects, and may fall to zero in the event of the issuer's bankruptcy. Equity security prices have historically experienced periods of significant volatility, particularly during recessions or other periods of financial stress, and can be expected to experience significant volatility in the future. The equity securities the Fund holds may undergo sudden, unpredictable drops in price or long periods of price decline. There can be no assurance that the level of dividends paid with respect to the dividend paying equity securities in which the Fund invests will be maintained.

Small- and Mid-Capitalization Company Risk. Investing in equity securities of small-capitalization and mid-capitalization companies may involve greater risks than investing in equity securities of larger, more established companies. Small-capitalization and mid-capitalization companies generally have limited product lines, markets and financial resources. Their equity securities may trade less frequently and in more limited volumes than the equity securities of larger, more established companies. Also, small-capitalization and mid-capitalization companies are typically subject to greater changes in earnings and business prospects than larger companies. As a result, the market prices of their equity securities may experience greater volatility and may decline more than those of large-capitalization companies in market downturns.

Preferred Equity Risk. The right of a holder of an issuer's preferred equity to distributions, dividends and liquidation proceeds is junior to the rights of the issuer's creditors, including holders of debt securities. Market prices of preferred equities may be subject to factors that affect debt and equity securities, including changes in market interest rates and changes, or perceived changes, in the issuer's creditworthiness. Holders of preferred equity may suffer a loss of value if distribution or dividend rates are reduced or distributions or dividends are not paid. Under normal conditions, holders of preferred equity usually do not have voting rights with respect to the issuer. The ability of holders of preferred equity to participate in the issuer's growth may be limited.

Other investment risks

Dividend Strategy Risk. There is no guarantee that the issuers of the securities held by the Fund will declare dividends in the future or that, if dividends are declared, they will remain at their current levels or increase over time. The Fund's emphasis on dividend paying securities

could cause the Fund to underperform similar funds that invest without consideration of a company's track record of paying dividends or ability to pay dividends in the future. Dividend paying securities may not participate in a broad market advance to the same degree as other securities, and a sharp rise in interest rates or an economic downturn could cause a company to unexpectedly reduce or eliminate its dividend. With respect to the Adviser's dividend recapture strategy, the Fund may hold securities for short periods of time related to the dividend payment periods and may experience loss during these periods.

Liquidity Risk. The Fund's investments in Private Infrastructure Opportunities will be highly illiquid, and the Fund will likely be able to sell such securities only in private transactions with another investor or group of investors, and there can be no assurance that the Fund will be able to successfully arrange such transactions if and when it desires to sell any of its Private Infrastructure Opportunities or, if successfully arranged, that it will be able to obtain favorable values upon the sale of the Private Infrastructure Opportunities in such transactions.

With respect to the Fund's investments in listed equity securities, the Fund may invest in securities of any market capitalization, including small- and mid-capitalization companies, and may be exposed to liquidity risk when trading volume, lack of a market maker, or legal restrictions impair its ability to sell particular securities or close call option positions at an advantageous price or a timely manner. Small- and mid-capitalization companies may be more volatile and more likely than large-capitalization companies to have narrower product lines, fewer financial resources, less management depth and experience and less competitive strength. In the event certain securities experience limited trading volumes, the prices of such securities may display abrupt or erratic movements at times. These securities may be difficult to sell at a favorable price at the times when the Fund believes it is desirable to do so.

Private Company Securities Risk. The Fund's investments in private companies may be subject to higher risk than investments in securities of public companies. Private companies, unlike public companies, are generally not subject to SEC reporting requirements, are not required to maintain their accounting records in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and are not required to maintain effective internal controls over financial reporting. As a result, the Fund will be required to rely on the ability of the Adviser and Sub-Adviser to obtain adequate information to evaluate the potential risks and returns involved in investing in these issuers. The Adviser and Sub-Adviser, however, may not have timely or accurate information about the business, financial condition and results of operations of the private companies in which the Fund invests and there is risk that the Fund may invest on the basis of incomplete or inaccurate information, which may adversely affect the Fund's investment performance. Private

companies in which the Fund may invest may have limited financial resources, shorter operating histories, more asset concentration risk, narrower product lines and smaller market shares than larger businesses, which tend to render such private companies more vulnerable to competitors' actions and market conditions, as well as general economic downturns. These companies generally have less predictable operating results, may from time to time be parties to litigation, may be engaged in rapidly changing businesses with products subject to a substantial risk of obsolescence, and may require substantial additional capital to support their operations, finance expansion or maintain their competitive position. These companies may have difficulty accessing the capital markets to meet future capital needs, which may limit their ability to grow or to repay their outstanding indebtedness upon maturity. In addition, the Fund's investment also may be structured as pay-in-kind securities with minimal or no cash interest or dividends until the company meets certain growth and liquidity objectives. These factors could subject the Fund to greater risk than investments in securities of public companies and negatively affect the Fund's investment returns, which could negatively impact the dividends paid to you and the value of your investment. Typically, investments in private companies are in restricted securities that are not traded in public markets and subject to substantial holding periods, so that the Fund may not be able to resell some of its holdings for extended periods, which may be several years. The Fund will likely be able to sell its investments in private companies only in private transactions with another investor or group of investors, and there can be no assurance that the Fund will be able to successfully arrange such transactions if and when it desires to sell any of its investments in private companies or, if successfully arranged, that the Fund will be able to obtain favorable values upon the sale of its investments in private companies in such transactions.

Private Company Management Risk. Private companies are more likely to depend on the management talents and efforts of a small group of persons; therefore, the death, disability, resignation or termination of one or more of these persons could have a material adverse impact on the company. The Fund generally does not intend to hold controlling positions in the private companies in which it invests. As a result, the Fund is subject to the risk that a company may make business decisions with which the Fund disagrees, and that the management and/or stockholders of a portfolio company may take risks or otherwise act in ways that are adverse to the Fund's interests. Due to the lack of liquidity of such private investments, the Fund may not be able to dispose of its investments in the event it disagrees with the actions of a private portfolio company and may therefore suffer a decrease in the value of the investment.

Private Company Illiquidity Risk. Securities issued by private companies are typically illiquid. If there is no readily available trading market for

privately issued securities, the Fund may not be able to readily dispose of such investments at prices that approximate those at which the Fund could sell them if they were more widely traded.

Private Company Valuation Risk. There is typically not a readily available market value for the Fund's private investments. The Fund values private company investments in accordance with valuation guidelines adopted by the Board, that the Board, in good faith, believes are designed to accurately reflect the fair value of securities valued in accordance with such guidelines. The Fund is not required to but may utilize the services of one or more independent valuation firms to aid in determining the fair value of these investments. Valuation of private company investments may involve application of one or more of the following factors: (i) analysis of valuations of publicly traded companies in a similar line of business, (ii) analysis of valuations for comparable merger or acquisition transactions, (iii) yield analysis and (iv) discounted cash flow analysis. Due to the inherent uncertainty and subjectivity of determining the fair value of investments that do not have a readily available market value, the fair value of the Fund's private investments may differ significantly from the values that would have been used had a readily available market value existed for such investments and may differ materially from the amounts the Fund may realize on any dispositions of such investments. In addition, the impact of changes in the market environment and other events on the fair values of the Fund's investments that have no readily available market values may differ from the impact of such changes on the readily available market values for the Fund's other investments. The Fund's NAV could be adversely affected if the Fund's determinations regarding the fair value of the Fund's investments were materially higher than the values that the Fund ultimately realizes upon the disposal of such investments.

Reliance on the Adviser Risk. The Fund may enter into private investments identified by the Adviser, in which case the Fund will be more reliant upon the ability of the Adviser to identify, research, analyze, negotiate and monitor such investments than is the case with investments in publicly traded securities. As little public information exists about many private companies, the Fund will be required to rely on the Adviser's diligence efforts to obtain adequate information to evaluate the potential risks and returns involved in investing in these companies. The costs of diligencing, negotiating and monitoring private investments will be borne by the Fund, which may reduce the Fund's returns.

Co-Investment Risk. The Fund may also co-invest in private investments sourced by third party investors unaffiliated with either the Fund or the Adviser, such as private equity firms. The Fund's ability to realize a profit on such investments will be particularly reliant on the expertise of the lead investor in the transaction. To the extent that the lead investor in such a co-investment opportunity assumes control of the management of the private company, the Fund will be reliant

not only upon the lead investor's ability to research, analyze, negotiate and monitor such investments, but also on the lead investor's ability to successfully oversee the operation of the company's business. The Fund's ability to dispose of such investments is typically severely limited, both by the fact that the securities are unregistered and illiquid and by contractual restrictions that may preclude the Fund from selling such investments. Often the Fund may exit such investment only in a transaction, such as an initial public offering or sale of the company, on terms arranged by the lead investor. Such investments may be subject to additional valuation risk, as the Fund's ability to accurately determine the fair value of the investments may depend upon the receipt of information from the lead investor. The valuation assigned to such an investment through application of the Fund's valuation procedures may differ from the valuation assigned to that investment by other co-investors.

Private Company Competition Risk. Many entities may potentially compete with the Fund in making private investments. Some of these competitors are substantially larger and have considerably greater financial, technical and marketing resources than the Fund. Some competitors may have a lower cost of funds and access to funding sources that are not available to the Fund. In addition, some competitors may have higher risk tolerances or different risk assessments, which could allow them to consider a wider variety of, or different structures for, private investments than the Fund. Furthermore, some competitors are not subject to the regulatory restrictions that the 1940 Act imposes on the Fund. As a result of this competition, the Fund may not be able to pursue attractive private investment opportunities from time to time.

Affiliation Risk. There is a risk that the Fund may be precluded from investing in certain private companies due to regulatory implications under the 1940 Act or other laws, rules or regulations or may be limited in the amount it can invest in the voting securities of a private company, in the size of the economic interest it can have in a private company or in the scope of influence it is permitted to have in respect of the management of a private company. Should the Fund be required to treat a private company in which it has invested as an "affiliated person" under the 1940 Act, the 1940 Act would impose a variety of restrictions on the Fund's dealings with the private company. Moreover, these restrictions may arise as a result of investments by other clients of the Adviser or its affiliates in a private company. These restrictions may be detrimental to the performance of the Fund compared to what it would be if these restrictions did not exist, and could impact the universe of investable private companies for the Fund. The fact that many private companies may have a limited number of investors and a limited amount of outstanding equity heightens these risks.

Private Placements and Other Restricted Securities Risk. Private placement and other restricted securities include securities that have

been privately placed and are not registered under the Securities Act, such as unregistered securities eligible for resale without registration pursuant to Rule 144A ("Rule 144A Securities") and privately placed securities of U.S. and non-U.S. issuers offered outside of the United States without registration with the SEC pursuant to Regulation S ("Regulation S Securities").

Private placements may offer attractive opportunities for investment not otherwise available on the open market.

Private placements securities typically may be sold only to qualified institutional buyers (or, in the case of the initial sale of certain securities, such as those issued in collateralized debt obligations or collateralized loan obligations, to accredited investors (as defined in Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act)), or in a privately negotiated transaction or to a limited number of purchasers, or in limited quantities after they have been held for a specified period of time and other conditions are met pursuant to an exemption from registration. Rule 144A Securities and Regulation S Securities may be freely traded among certain qualified institutional investors, such as the Fund, but their resale in the U.S. is permitted only in limited circumstances.

Issuers of restricted securities may not be subject to the disclosure and other investor protection requirements that would be applicable if their securities were publicly traded. Where a registration statement is required for the resale of restricted securities, the Fund may be required to bear all or part of the registration expenses. The Fund may be deemed to be an "underwriter" for purposes of the Securities Act when selling restricted securities to the public and, in such event, the Fund may be liable to purchasers of such securities if the registration statement prepared by the issuer is materially inaccurate or misleading. Private placements typically are subject to restrictions on resale as a matter of contract or under federal securities laws. Because there may be relatively few potential purchasers for such securities, especially under adverse market or economic conditions or in the event of adverse changes in the financial condition of the issuer, the Fund could find it more difficult to sell such securities when it may be advisable to do so or it may be able to sell such securities only at prices lower than if such securities were more widely held. At times, it also may be more difficult to determine the fair value of such securities for purposes of computing the Fund's net asset value due to the absence of a trading market.

Private placements and restricted securities may be considered illiquid securities, which could have the effect of increasing the level of the Fund's illiquidity. Additionally, a restricted security that was liquid at the time of purchase may subsequently become illiquid.

Disposing of illiquid investments may involve time-consuming negotiation and legal expenses, and it may be difficult or impossible for the Fund to sell them promptly at an acceptable price. The Fund may have to bear the extra expense of registering the securities for

resale and the risk of substantial delay in effecting the registration. In addition, market quotations typically are less readily available for these securities.

Foreign Securities Risk. The Fund uses various criteria to determine which country is deemed to have issued the securities in which the Fund invests. Because issuers often have activities and operations in several different countries, an issuer could be considered a non-U.S. issuer even though changes in the value of its securities held by a Fund are significantly impacted by its U.S. activities. Similarly, an issuer could be classified as a U.S. issuer even when the changes in the value of the issuer's securities held by a Fund are significantly impacted by non-U.S. activities. Foreign securities may be more volatile, harder to price and less liquid than U.S. securities. Foreign investments involve some of the following risks as well:

Additional risks include the possibility that a foreign jurisdiction might impose or increase withholding taxes on income payable with respect to foreign securities; the possible seizure, nationalization or expropriation of the issuer or foreign deposits (in which the Fund could lose its entire investment in a certain market); and the possible adoption of foreign governmental restrictions such as exchange controls.

The risks of investing in foreign securities are increased in connection with investments in emerging markets. See "Emerging Market Securities Risk".

Emerging Market Securities Risk. The risks of investing in foreign securities are increased in connection with investments in emerging markets. Although there is no universally accepted definition, an emerging or developing country is generally considered to be a country which is in the initial stages of industrialization. Investing in emerging markets can involve unique risks in addition to and greater than those generally associated with investing in developed markets. Shareholders should be aware that investing in the markets of developing countries involves exposure to unstable governments, economies based on only a few industries, and securities markets which trade a small number of securities. Securities markets of developing countries tend to be more volatile than the markets of developed countries; however, such markets have in the past provided the opportunity for higher rates of return to investors.

The value and liquidity of investments in developing countries may be affected favorably or unfavorably by political, economic, fiscal, regulatory or other developments in the particular countries or neighboring regions. The extent of economic development, political stability and market depth of different countries varies widely. Such investments typically involve greater potential for gain or loss than investments in securities of issuers in developed countries.

The securities markets in developing countries are substantially smaller, less liquid and more volatile than the major securities markets in the United States. A high proportion of the shares of issuers in developing countries may be held by a limited number of persons and financial institutions, which may limit the number of shares available for investment by the Fund. The small size, limited trading volume and relative inexperience of the securities markets in these countries may make investments in securities traded in emerging markets less liquid and more volatile than investments in securities traded in more developed countries. For example, limited market size may cause prices to be unduly influenced by traders who control large positions. A limited number of issuers in developing countries' securities markets may represent a disproportionately large percentage of market capitalization and trading volume. The limited liquidity of securities markets in developing countries may also affect the Fund's ability to acquire or dispose of securities at the price and time it wishes to do so. The Fund's inability to dispose fully and promptly of positions in declining markets could cause the Fund's NAV to decline as the value of the unsold positions is marked to lower prices. In addition, the Fund may be required to establish special custodial or other arrangements before making investments in securities traded in emerging markets. There may be little financial or accounting information available with respect to issuers of emerging market securities, and it may be difficult as a result to assess the value of prospects of an investment in such securities.

The currencies of certain emerging market countries have experienced devaluations relative to the U.S. Dollar, and future devaluations may adversely affect the value of assets denominated in such currencies. In addition, currency hedging techniques may be unavailable in certain emerging market countries. Many emerging market countries have experienced substantial, and in some periods extremely high, rates of inflation or deflation for many years, and future inflation may adversely affect the economies and securities markets of such countries.

Political and economic structures in many such countries may be undergoing significant evolution and rapid development, and such countries may lack the social, political and economic stability characteristics of the United States. In addition, unanticipated political or social developments may affect the value of investments in emerging markets and the availability of additional investments in these markets. Any change in the leadership or politics of emerging market countries, or the countries that exercise a significant influence

over those countries, may halt the expansion of or reverse the liberalization of foreign investment policies now occurring and adversely affect existing investment opportunities. Certain countries have in the past failed to recognize private property rights and have at times nationalized or expropriated the assets of private companies. As a result, the risks described above, including the risks of nationalization or expropriation of assets, may be heightened.

Economies of developing countries may differ favorably or unfavorably from the United States' economy in such respects as rate of growth of gross national product, rate of inflation, capital reinvestment, resource self-sufficiency and balance of payments position. Certain developing countries do not have comprehensive systems of laws, although substantial changes have occurred in many such countries in this regard in recent years. Laws regarding fiduciary duties of officers and directors and the protection of shareholders may not be well developed. Even where adequate law exists in such developing countries, it may be impossible to obtain swift and equitable enforcement of such law, or to obtain enforcement of the judgment by a court of another jurisdiction.

The risk also exists that an emergency situation may arise in one or more emerging markets as a result of which trading of securities may cease or may be substantially curtailed and prices for the Fund's securities in such markets may not be readily available. The Fund may suspend redemption of its shares for any period during which an emergency exists, as determined by the SEC. Accordingly, if the Fund believes that appropriate circumstances exist, it will promptly apply to the SEC for a determination that an emergency is present. During the period commencing from the Fund's identification of such condition until the date of the SEC action, the Fund's securities in the affected markets will be valued at fair value determined in good faith by or under the direction of the Fund's Board.

Certain of the foregoing risks may also apply to some extent to securities of U.S. issuers that are denominated in foreign currencies or that are traded in foreign markets, or securities of U.S. issuers having significant foreign operations.

Trading in futures contracts on foreign commodity exchanges may be subject to the same or similar risks as trading in foreign securities.

Foreign Currency Exposure Risk. The Fund may invest in securities that trade in, or receive revenues in, foreign currencies are subject to the risk that those currencies may fluctuate in value relative to the U.S. Dollar. Currency rates in foreign countries may fluctuate significantly over short periods of time for a number of reasons, including changes in interest rates, intervention (or the failure to intervene) by U.S. or foreign governments, central banks or supranational entities such as the International Monetary Fund, or by the imposition of currency controls or other political developments in the U.S. or abroad. These risks may impact the Fund more greatly to the extent the Fund does

not hedge its currency risk. To manage currency risk, the Fund may enter into foreign currency exchange contracts to hedge against a decline in the U.S. Dollar value of a security it already owns or against an increase in the value of an asset it expects to purchase. The Fund is not required to hedge currency risk. The Adviser's use of hedging techniques does not eliminate exchange rate risk. In certain circumstances, the Adviser may hedge using a foreign currency other than the currency which the portfolio securities being hedged are denominated. This type of hedging entails greater risk because it is dependent on a stable relationship between the two currencies paired in the hedge and the relationship can be very unstable at times. If the Adviser is unsuccessful in its attempts to hedge against exchange rate risk, the Fund could be in a less advantageous position than if the Adviser did not establish any currency hedge. Losses on foreign currency transactions used for hedging purposes may be offset by gains on the assets that are the subject of the Fund's hedge.

The Fund's gains from its positions in foreign currencies may accelerate and/or recharacterize the Fund's income or gains at the Fund level and its distributions to shareholders. A Fund's losses from such positions may also recharacterize the Fund's income and its distributions to shareholders and may cause a return of capital to Fund shareholders.

To the extent a foreign government limits or causes delays in the convertibility or repatriation of its currency, this will adversely affect the U.S. dollar value and/or liquidity of investments denominated in that currency. Such actions could severely affect security prices, impair a Fund's ability to purchase or sell foreign securities or transfer the Fund's assets back into the U.S., or otherwise adversely affect the Fund's operations.

Terrorism and Cybersecurity Risk. Infrastructure-related issuers are subject to disruption as a result of terrorist activities and other geopolitical events, including upheaval in the Middle East or other energy-producing regions. Cyber hacking could also cause significant disruption and harm to infrastructure-related issuers. The U.S. government has issued warnings that certain infrastructure assets, specifically those related to energy infrastructure, including exploration and production facilities, pipelines and transmission and distribution facilities, might be specific targets of terrorist activity. Additionally, digital and network technologies (collectively, "cyber networks") might be at risk of cyberattacks that could potentially seek unauthorized access to digital systems for purposes such as misappropriating sensitive information, corrupting data or causing operational disruption. Cyberattacks might potentially be carried out by persons using techniques that could range from efforts to electronically circumvent network security or overwhelm websites to intelligence gathering and social engineering functions aimed at obtaining information necessary to gain access.

In addition, the Fund is subject to direct cybersecurity risk. Cybersecurity incidents may allow an unauthorized party to gain access to Fund assets, customer data (including private shareholder information), or proprietary information, or cause the Fund, the Adviser and/or the Fund's service providers (including, but not limited to, Fund accountants, custodians, sub-custodians and transfer agents) to suffer data breaches, data corruption or lose operational functionality.

Derivatives Risk. The Fund may invest in financial derivative instruments for hedging, including primarily forward foreign exchange contracts to manage foreign currency risks, although the Advisers are not required to hedge the Fund's currency exposure.

Forward contracts are obligations to purchase or sell an asset or, most commonly, a specific currency at a future date, which may be any fixed number of days from the date of the contract agreed upon by the parties, at a price set at the time of the contract. Forward foreign currency contracts are the primary means of hedging currency exposure.

Derivatives are speculative and may hurt the Fund's performance. Derivatives present the risk of disproportionately increased losses and/or reduced opportunities for gains when the financial asset or measure to which the derivative is linked changes in unexpected ways. The potential benefits to be derived from the Fund's derivatives use are dependent upon the portfolio managers' ability to discern pricing inefficiencies and predict trends in these markets, which decisions could prove to be inaccurate. This requires different skills and techniques than predicting changes in the price of individual securities, and there can be no assurance that the use of this strategy will be successful. Some additional risks of investing in derivatives for purposes of hedging include:

•   Hedged Exposure Risk - Losses generated by a derivative or practice used by the Fund for hedging purposes should be substantially offset by gains on the hedged investment. However, while hedging can reduce or eliminate losses, it can also reduce or eliminate gains.

•   Correlation Risk - The Fund is exposed to the risk that changes in the value of derivatives may not match or fully offset changes in the value of the hedged portfolio securities, thereby failing to achieve the original purpose for using the derivatives.

•   Counterparty Risk - Derivative transactions depend on the creditworthiness of the counterparty and the counterparty's ability to fulfill its contractual obligations.

OPERATIONAL RISKS

Stable Distribution Plan Risk. The Fund has adopted a Stable Distribution Plan, which may be changed at any time by the Board, to support a

stable distribution of income, capital gains, and/or return of capital. In the event the Fund does not generate a total return from dividends and interest received and net realized capital gains in an amount equal to or in excess of its stated distribution in a given year, the Fund may return capital as part of such distribution. Any return of capital should not be considered by investors as yield or total return on their investment in the Fund.

The composition of each distribution to be made by the Fund is estimated based on the earnings of the Fund as of the record date for each distribution. The actual composition of each of the current year's distributions will be based on the Fund's investment activity through the end of the calendar year. Under the Fund's Stable Distribution Plan, the Fund declares and pays monthly distributions from net investment income, capital gains and paid-in capital. The actual source of the distribution is determined after the end of the year. Pursuant to the Stable Distribution Plan, distributions during the year may be made in excess of required distributions. To the extent such distributions are made from current or accumulated earnings and profits, they are considered ordinary income or long term capital gains. Shareholders should not draw any conclusions about the Fund's investment performance from the amount of its distributions or from the terms of the Stable Distribution Plan.

Operating Results Risk. The Fund could experience fluctuations in its operating results due to a number of factors, including the return on its investments, the level of its expenses, and the degree to which the Fund encounters competition in its markets and general economic conditions. As a result of these factors, results for any period should not be relied upon as being indicative of performance in future periods.

Market Discount Risk. Shares of closed-end investment companies frequently trade at a discount from net asset value. Continued development of alternative vehicles for investing in essential asset companies may contribute to reducing or eliminating any premium or may result in the Fund's common shares trading at a discount. The risk that the Fund's common shares may trade at a discount is separate from the risk of a decline in the Fund's net asset value as a result of investment activities.

Whether shareholders will realize a gain or loss for federal income tax purposes upon the sale of their common shares depends upon whether the market value of the common shares at the time of sale is above or below the shareholder's basis in such common shares, taking into account transaction costs, and it is not directly dependent upon the Fund's net asset value. Because the market price of the Fund's common shares will be determined by factors such as the relative demand for and supply of the shares in the market, general market conditions and other factors beyond the Fund's control, the Fund cannot predict whether its common shares will trade at, below or above net asset

value, or at, below or above the public offering price for the Fund's common shares.

Delay in Use of Proceeds Risk. Although the Fund expects to fully invest the net proceeds of this offering in an initial portfolio of primarily publicly listed investments within one month after the closing of this offering, such investments may be delayed if suitable investments are unavailable at the time, if market conditions and volumes of securities are not favorable at the time or for other reasons. As a result, the proceeds may be invested in money market mutual funds; cash; cash equivalents; securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government or its instrumentalities or agencies; high quality, short-term money market instruments; short- term debt securities; certificates of deposit; bankers' acceptances and other bank obligations; commercial paper or other liquid debt securities. The one-month timeframe associated with the anticipated use of proceeds could lower returns and lower the Fund's yield in the first year after the issuance of the Fund's common shares.

In addition, under current market conditions, the Fund expects that it may take approximately 24 months from the closing of this offering to identify and complete its investments in Private Infrastructure Opportunities. Further, the Fund's investment in Private Infrastructure Opportunities will be dictated by the availability of Private Infrastructure Opportunities and there is no guarantee that attractive opportunities will be available to permit the Fund to invest as desired.

Portfolio Turnover Risk. At times, particularly during the initial twelve months of operation, the Fund's portfolio turnover may be higher. High portfolio turnover involves greater transaction costs for the Fund and may result in greater realization of capital gains, including short-term capital gains.

Valuation Risk. The Private Infrastructure Opportunities will typically consist of securities for which a liquid trading market does not exist. The fair value of these securities may not be readily determinable. The Fund will value these securities in accordance with valuation procedures adopted by the Board of Trustees. The types of factors that may be considered in fair value pricing of the Fund's investments include, as applicable, the nature and realizable value of any collateral, the issuer's ability to make payments, the markets in which the issuer does business, comparison to publicly traded companies, discounted cash flow and other relevant factors. Because such valuations, and particularly valuations of non-traded securities and private companies, are inherently uncertain, they may fluctuate over short periods of time and may be based on estimates. The determination of fair value by the Board of Trustees may differ materially from the values that would have been used if a liquid trading market for these securities existed. The Fund's net asset value could be adversely affected if the determinations regarding the fair value of its investments were

materially higher than the values that the Fund ultimately realizes upon the disposition of such securities.

Tax Risk. The Fund intends to elect to be treated, and to qualify each year, as a RIC under the Code. To maintain its qualification for federal income tax purposes as a RIC under the Code, the Fund must meet certain source-of-income, asset diversification and annual distribution requirements. If for any taxable year the Fund fails to qualify for the special federal income tax treatment afforded RICs, all of its taxable income will be subject to federal income tax at regular corporate rates (without any deduction for distributions to the Fund's shareholders) and its income available for distribution will be reduced.

Leverage Risk. The Fund currently does not intend to use leverage, but may do so in the future. The use of leverage creates an opportunity for increased common share net investment income dividends, but also creates risks for the holders of common shares. The Fund cannot assure you that the use of leverage, if employed, will result in a higher yield on the common shares. Any leveraging strategy the Fund employs may not be successful.

Leverage involves risks and special considerations for common shareholders, including:

•   the likelihood of greater volatility of NAV, market price and dividend rate of the common shares than a comparable portfolio without leverage;

•   the risk that fluctuations in interest rates or dividend rates on any leverage that the Fund must pay will reduce the return to the common shareholders;

•   the effect of leverage in a declining market, which is likely to cause a greater decline in the NAV of the common shares than if the Fund were not leveraged, which may result in a greater decline in the market price of the common shares;

•   when the Fund uses financial leverage, the management fee payable to the Adviser will be higher than if the Fund did not use leverage; and

•   leverage may increase operating costs, which may reduce total return.

Any decline in the NAV of the Fund's investments will be borne entirely by the holders of common shares. Therefore, if the market value of the Fund's portfolio declines, leverage will result in a greater decrease in NAV to the holders of common shares than if the Fund were not leveraged. This greater NAV decrease will also tend to cause a greater decline in the market price for the common shares. While the Fund may from time to time consider reducing any outstanding leverage in response to actual or anticipated changes in interest rates in an effort to mitigate the increased volatility of current income and NAV

associated with leverage, there can be no assurance that the Fund will actually reduce any outstanding leverage in the future or that any reduction, if undertaken, will benefit the holders of common shares. Changes in the future direction of interest rates are very difficult to predict accurately. If the Fund were to reduce any outstanding leverage based on a prediction about future changes to interest rates, and that prediction turned out to be incorrect, the reduction in any outstanding leverage would likely operate to reduce the income and/or total returns to holders of common shares relative to the circumstance where the Fund had not reduced any of its outstanding leverage. The Fund may decide that this risk outweighs the likelihood of achieving the desired reduction to volatility in income and share price if the prediction were to turn out to be correct, and determine not to reduce any of its outstanding leverage as described above.

The Fund currently does not intend to borrow money or issue debt securities or preferred shares, but may in the future borrow funds from banks or other financial institutions, or issue debt securities or preferred shares, as described in this prospectus. Certain types of leverage the Fund may use may result in the Fund being subject to covenants relating to asset coverage and portfolio composition requirements. If the Fund fails to meet such covenants, the Fund may be required to repay immediately, in part or in full, any outstanding leverage, necessitating the sale of portfolio securities, including illiquid securities, at inopportune times. The Fund may be subject to certain restrictions on investments imposed by guidelines of one or more rating agencies, which may issue ratings for any debt securities or preferred shares issued by the Fund. The terms of any borrowings or these rating agency guidelines may impose asset coverage or portfolio composition requirements that are more stringent than those imposed by the Investment Company Act. The Adviser does not believe that these covenants or guidelines will impede it from managing the Fund's portfolio in accordance with the Fund's investment objectives and policies.

In addition to the foregoing, the use of leverage treated as indebtedness of the Fund for U.S. federal income tax purposes may reduce the amount of Fund dividends that are otherwise eligible for the dividends received deduction in the hands of corporate shareholders.

Capital Markets Risk. In the event of an economic downturn or period of increased financial stress, like the one caused by the recent COVID-19 outbreak, the cost of raising capital in the debt and equity capital markets may increase, and the ability to raise capital may be limited. In particular, concerns about the general stability of financial markets and specifically the solvency of lending counterparties may impact the cost of raising capital from the credit markets through increased interest rates, tighter lending standards, difficulties in refinancing debt on existing terms or at all and reduced, or in some cases ceasing to provide, funding to borrowers. In addition, lending

counterparties under existing revolving credit facilities and other debt instruments may be unwilling or unable to meet their funding obligations. As a result of any of the foregoing, the Fund or the companies in which the Fund invests may be unable to obtain new debt or equity financing on acceptable terms. If funding is not available when needed, or is available only on unfavorable terms, the Fund or the companies in which the Fund invests may not be able to meet obligations as they come due. Moreover, without adequate funding, essential asset companies may be unable to execute their growth strategies, complete future acquisitions, take advantage of other business opportunities or respond to competitive pressures, any of which could have a material adverse effect on their revenues and results of operations and, consequently, the performance of the Fund.

Legal, Regulatory and Policy Risks. Legal and regulatory changes could occur that may adversely affect the Fund, its investments and its ability to pursue its investment strategies and/or increase the costs of implementing such strategies. New or revised laws or regulations may be imposed by the SEC, the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (the "CFTC"), the Internal Revenue Service, the U.S. Federal Reserve or other governmental regulatory authorities or self-regulatory organizations that could adversely affect us. The Fund may also may be adversely affected by changes in the enforcement or interpretation of existing statutes and rules by governmental regulatory authorities or self-regulatory organizations.

Due to recent instability in financial markets, including that caused by the recent COVID-19 outbreak, U.S. federal and state governments and foreign governments, their regulatory agencies or self-regulatory organizations have taken and may take additional actions that affect the regulation of the securities in which the Fund invests, or the issuers of such securities, in ways that are unforeseeable and on an "emergency" basis with little or no notice, with the consequence that some market participants' ability to continue to implement certain strategies or manage the risk of their outstanding positions may be suddenly and/or substantially eliminated or otherwise negatively impacted. Given the complexities of the global financial markets and the limited timeframe within which governments may be required to take action, these interventions may result in confusion and uncertainty, which in itself may be materially detrimental to the efficient functioning of such markets as well as previously successful investment strategies.

Limitations on Transactions with Affiliates Risk. The 1940 Act limits the Fund's ability to enter into certain transactions with certain of its affiliates. As a result of these restrictions, the Fund may be prohibited from buying or selling any security directly from or to any portfolio company that is considered its affiliate under the 1940 Act. However, the Fund may under certain circumstances purchase any such portfolio company's securities in the secondary market, which could create a

conflict for the Adviser or Sub-Adviser between the Fund's interests and the interests of the portfolio company, in that the ability of the Adviser or Sub-Adviser, as applicable, to recommend actions in the Fund's best interests might be impaired.

The 1940 Act also prohibits certain "joint" transactions by the Fund with certain of its affiliates, including other accounts adviser by the Adviser and Sub-Adviser, which imposes limits on investments in the same issuer (whether at the same or different times). The Adviser may in the future seek exemptive relief from the SEC that would permit the Fund, among other things, greater flexibility to co-invest with certain other persons, including certain other accounts, subject to certain terms and conditions. Such relief may not cover all circumstances and the Fund may be precluded from participating in certain transactions due to regulatory restrictions on transactions with affiliates.

Potential Conflicts of Interest. The portfolio managers' management of "other accounts" may give rise to potential conflicts of interest in connection with their management of the Fund's investments, on the one hand, and the investments of the other accounts, on the other. The other accounts may have the same investment objective as the Fund. Therefore, a potential conflict of interest may arise as a result of the identical investment objectives, whereby the portfolio manager could favor one account over another. However, the Adviser believes that these risks are mitigated by the fact that: (i) accounts with like investment strategies managed by a particular portfolio manager are generally managed in a similar fashion, subject to exceptions to account for particular investment restrictions or policies applicable only to certain accounts, differences in cash flows and account sizes, and similar factors; and (ii) portfolio manager personal trading is monitored to avoid potential conflicts. In addition, the Adviser has adopted trade allocation procedures that require equitable allocation of trade orders for a particular security among participating accounts.

In some cases, another account managed by the same portfolio manager may compensate the Adviser based on the performance of the portfolio held by that account. The existence of such a performance-based fee may create additional conflicts of interest for the portfolio manager in the allocation of management time, resources and investment opportunities.

Another potential conflict could include instances in which securities considered as investments for the Fund also may be appropriate for other investment accounts managed by the Adviser or its affiliates. Whenever decisions are made to buy or sell securities by the Fund and one or more of the other accounts simultaneously, the Adviser may aggregate the purchases and sales of the securities and will allocate the securities transactions in a manner that it believes to be equitable under the circumstances. As a result of the allocations, there may be instances where the Fund will not participate in a transaction that is allocated among other accounts. While these aggregation and

allocation policies could have a detrimental effect on the price or amount of the securities available to the Fund from time to time, it is the opinion of the Adviser that the benefits from the policies outweigh any disadvantage that may arise from exposure to simultaneous transactions. The Adviser has adopted policies that are designed to eliminate or minimize conflicts of interest, although there is no guarantee that procedures adopted under such policies will detect each and every situation in which a conflict arises.

The Adviser also has adopted written allocation procedures for transactions involving private placement securities, which are designed to result in a fair and equitable participation in offerings or sales for participating clients over time.

From time to time, the Adviser or the Sub-Adviser may seed proprietary accounts for the purpose of evaluating a new investment strategy that eventually may be available to clients through one or more product structures. Such accounts also may serve the purpose of establishing a performance record for the strategy. The management by the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser of accounts with proprietary interests and nonproprietary client accounts may create an incentive to favor the proprietary accounts in the allocation of investment opportunities, and the timing and aggregation of investments. The Adviser's and Sub-Adviser's proprietary seed accounts may include long-short strategies, and certain client strategies may permit short sales. A conflict of interest arises if a security is sold short at the same time as a long position, and continuous short selling in a security may adversely affect the stock price of the same security held long in client accounts. The Adviser and Sub-Adviser have adopted various policies to mitigate these conflicts.

Situations may occur when the Fund could be disadvantaged because of the investment activities conducted by the Adviser, the Sub-Adviser and their affiliates for other accounts. Such situations may be based on, among other things, the following: (1) legal or internal restrictions on the combined size of positions that may be taken for the Fund or the other accounts, thereby limiting the size of the Fund's position; (2) the difficulty of liquidating an investment for the Fund or the other accounts where the market cannot absorb the sale of the combined position; or (3) regulatory restrictions on transaction with affiliates.

The Adviser has the ability to allocate investment opportunities of certain negotiated transactions between the Fund, other funds registered under the 1940 Act and other accounts managed by the Adviser pro rata based on available capital, up to the amount proposed to be invested by each ("Co-Investment Opportunities"). The 1940 Act and a rule thereunder impose limits on the Fund's ability to participate in Co-Investment Opportunities, and the Fund generally will not be permitted to co-invest alongside other funds registered under the 1940 Act and other accounts managed by the Adviser in privately negotiated transactions unless the Fund obtains an exemptive order from

the SEC or the transaction is otherwise permitted under existing regulatory guidance, such as certain transactions in publicly traded securities and transactions in which price is the only negotiated term. To the extent an investment opportunity in a transaction involving the negotiation of any term of the investment other than price or quantity (a "negotiated transaction") arises, and the Adviser determines that it would be appropriate for both the Fund and other accounts managed by the Adviser, the opportunity will be allocated to the other accounts and the Fund will not participate in the negotiated transaction. To the extent that the Adviser sources and structures private investments in publicly traded issuers, certain employees of the Adviser may become aware of actions planned by such issuers, such as acquisitions, which may not be announced to the public. It is possible that the Fund could be precluded from investing in or selling securities of an issuer about which the Adviser has material, nonpublic information, however, it is the Adviser's intention to ensure that any material, non-public information available to certain employees of the Adviser is not shared with the employees responsible for the purchase and sale of publicly traded securities or to confirm prior to receipt of any material non-public information that the information will shortly be made public. The Fund's investment opportunities also may be limited by affiliations of the Adviser, the Sub-Adviser or their affiliates with infrastructure companies.

The Adviser, the Sub-Adviser and their respective principals, officers, employees and affiliates may buy and sell securities or other investments for their own accounts and may have actual or potential conflicts of interest with respect to investments made on the Fund's behalf. As a result of differing trading and investment strategies or constraints, positions may be taken by principals, officers, employees and affiliates of the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser that are the same as, different from or made at a different time from positions taken for the Fund. Further, the Adviser and the Sub-Adviser may at some time in the future manage additional investment funds with the same investment objective as the Fund.

Anti-Takeover Provisions Risk. The Fund's Declaration of Trust and Bylaws include provisions that could delay, defer or prevent other entities or persons from acquiring control of the Fund, causing the Fund to engage in certain transactions or modify its structure. These provisions may be regarded as "anti-takeover" provisions. Such provisions could limit the ability of common shareholders to sell their shares at a premium over the then-current market prices by discouraging a third party from seeking to obtain control of us.

Fundamental Investment Restrictions

The following are the fundamental investment limitations of the Fund set forth in their entirety. Investment limitations identified as fundamental may be changed only with the approval of the holders of a majority of the Fund's outstanding voting securities (which for this

purpose and under the 1940 Act, means the lesser of (1) 67% of the voting shares present in person or by proxy at a meeting at which more than 50% of the outstanding voting shares are present in person or by proxy, or (2) more than 50% of the outstanding voting shares).

The Fund may not:

(1) issue senior securities, except as permitted by the 1940 Act and the rules and interpretive positions of the SEC thereunder;

(2) borrow money, except as permitted by the 1940 Act and the rules and interpretive positions of the SEC thereunder;

(3) make loans, except by the purchase of debt obligations, by entering into repurchase agreements or through the lending of portfolio securities and as otherwise permitted by the 1940 Act and the rules and interpretive positions of the SEC thereunder;

(4) purchase the securities of any issuer (other than securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. government or any of its agencies or instrumentalities) if, as a result, more than 25% of the Fund's total assets would be invested in the securities of companies whose principal business activities are in the same industry;

(5) underwrite securities issued by others, except to the extent that we may be considered an underwriter within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), in the disposition of restricted securities held in our portfolio;

(6) purchase or sell real estate unless acquired as a result of ownership of securities or other instruments, except that the Fund may invest in securities or other instruments backed by real estate or securities of companies that invest in real estate or interests therein (including real estate investment trusts ("REITs")); and

(7) purchase or sell physical commodities unless acquired as a result of the ownership of securities or other instruments, except that we may purchase or sell options and futures contracts or invest in securities or other instruments backed by physical commodities.

All other investment policies are considered non-fundamental and may be changed by the Board without prior approval of a majority of the Fund's outstanding voting securities.

The Fund intends to distribute to stockholders substantially all of its net investment income and to distribute any net realized capital gains at least annually. Net investment income for this purpose is income other than net realized long-term and short-term capital gains net of expenses. Pursuant to the Dividend Reinvestment and Optional Cash Purchase Plan (the "Plan"), stockholders whose shares of common stock are registered in their own names will be deemed to have elected to have all distributions automatically reinvested by Computershare Trust Company N.A. (the "Plan Agent") in the Fund shares pursuant to the Plan, unless such stockholders elect to receive distributions in cash. Stockholders who elect to receive distributions in cash will receive such distributions paid by check in U.S. Dollars mailed directly to the stockholder by the Plan Agent, as dividend paying agent. In the case of stockholders such as banks, brokers or nominees that hold shares for others who are beneficial owners, the Plan Agent will administer the Plan on the basis of the number of shares certified from time to time by the stockholders as representing the total amount registered in such stockholders' names and held for the account of beneficial owners that have not elected to receive distributions in cash. Investors that own shares registered in the name of a bank, broker or other nominee should consult with such nominee as to participation in the Plan through such nominee and may be required to have their shares registered in their own names in order to participate in the Plan. Please note that the Fund does not issue certificates so all shares will be registered in book entry form. The Plan Agent serves as agent for the stockholders in administering the Plan. If the Directors of the Fund declare an income dividend or a capital gains distribution payable either in the Fund's common stock or in cash, nonparticipants in the Plan will receive cash and participants in the Plan will receive common stock, to be issued by the Fund or purchased by the Plan Agent in the open market, as provided below. If the market price per share (plus expected per share fees) on the valuation date equals or exceeds NAV per share on that date, the Fund will issue new shares to participants at NAV; provided, however, that if the NAV is less than 95% of the market price on the valuation date, then such shares will be issued at 95% of the market price. The valuation date will be the payable date for such distribution or dividend or, if that date is not a trading day on the New York Stock Exchange, the immediately preceding trading date. If NAV exceeds the market price of Fund shares at such time, or if the Fund should declare an income dividend or capital gains distribution payable only in cash, the Plan Agent will, as agent for the participants, buy Fund shares in the open market, on the New York Stock Exchange or elsewhere, for the participants' accounts on, or shortly after, the payment date. If, before the Plan Agent has completed its purchases, the market price exceeds the NAV of a Fund share, the average per share purchase price paid by the Plan Agent may exceed the NAV of the Fund's shares, resulting in the acquisition of fewer shares than if the distribution had

been paid in shares issued by the Fund on the dividend payment date. Because of the foregoing difficulty with respect to open-market purchases, the Plan provides that if the Plan Agent is unable to invest the full dividend amount in open-market purchases during the purchase period or if the market discount shifts to a market premium during the purchase period, the Plan Agent will cease making open-market purchases and will receive the uninvested portion of the dividend amount in newly issued shares at the close of business on the last purchase date.

Participants have the option of making additional cash payments of a minimum of $50 per investment (by check, one-time online bank debit or recurring automatic monthly ACH debit) to the Plan Agent for investment in the Fund's common stock, with an annual maximum contribution of $250,000. The Plan Agent will wait up to three business days after receipt of a check or electronic funds transfer to ensure it receives good funds. Following confirmation of receipt of good funds, the Plan Agent will use all such funds received from participants to purchase Fund shares in the open market on the 25th day of each month or the next trading day if the 25th is not a trading day.

If the participant sets up recurring automatic monthly ACH debits, funds will be withdrawn from his or her U.S. bank account on the 20th of each month or the next business day if the 20th is not a banking business day and invested on the next investment date. The Plan Agent maintains all stockholder accounts in the Plan and furnishes written confirmations of all transactions in an account, including information needed by stockholders for personal and tax records. Shares in the account of each Plan participant will be held by the Plan Agent in the name of the participant, and each stockholder's proxy will include those shares purchased pursuant to the Plan. There will be no brokerage charges with respect to common shares issued directly by the Fund. However, each participant will pay a per share fee of $0.02 incurred with respect to the Plan Agent's open market purchases in connection with the reinvestment of dividends, capital gains distributions and voluntary cash payments made by the participant. Per share fees include any applicable brokerage commissions the Plan Agent is required to pay.

Participants also have the option of selling their shares through the Plan. The Plan supports two types of sales orders. Batch order sales are submitted on each market day and will be grouped with other sale requests to be sold. The price will be the average sale price obtained by Computershare's broker, net of fees, for each batch order and will be sold generally within 2 business days of the request during regular open market hours. Please note that all written sales requests are always processed by Batch Order. ($10 and $0.12 per share). Market Order sales will sell at the next available trade. The shares are sold real time when they hit the market, however an available trade must be

presented to complete this transaction. Market Order sales may only be requested by phone at 1-800-647-0584 or using Investor Center through www.computershare.com/buyaberdeen. ($25 and $0.12 per share).

The receipt of dividends and distributions under the Plan will not relieve participants of any income tax that may be payable on such dividends or distributions. The Fund or the Plan Agent may terminate the Plan as applied to any voluntary cash payments made and any dividend or distribution paid subsequent to notice of the termination sent to members of the Plan at least 30 days prior to the record date for such dividend or distribution. The Plan also may be amended by the Fund or the Plan Agent, but (except when necessary or appropriate to comply with applicable law or the rules or policies of the Securities and Exchange Commission or any other regulatory authority) only by mailing a written notice at least 30 days' prior to the effective date to the participants in the Plan. All correspondence concerning the Plan should be directed to the Plan Agent by phone at 1-800-647-0584, using Investor Center through www.computershare.com/buyaberdeen or in writing to Computershare Trust Company N.A., P.O. Box 505000, Louisville, KY 40233-5000.
