Virtus Convertible & Income Fund (NYSE: NCV) and Virtus Convertible & Income Fund II (NYSE: NCZ) announced that a 1-for-4 reverse stock split of the issued and outstanding shares of each Fund will be effective as of the start of trading on Monday, February 10, 2025 (“Effective Date”). The reverse stock splits were previously announced, approved by each Fund’s board, and are intended to enhance shareholder value. As a result of the reverse stock splits, one new share will be issued for every four outstanding common shares of NCV and NCZ.

The Funds will retain their trading symbols but have been assigned the following new CUSIP numbers as of the Effective Date: NCV: 92838X805    NCZ: 92838U801

The reverse stock splits are intended to result in a higher per-share market price for each Fund’s common shares. It is anticipated that increasing the per-share market price may broaden the range of potential investors in each Fund’s shares, thereby potentially improving the market for, and liquidity of, each Fund’s common shares. In addition, the reverse stock splits may benefit shareholders and the Funds by reducing certain per-share transaction fees and other administrative costs, such as stock exchange listing fees.

Shareholders will be paid in cash for any fractional shares that may result from the reverse stock splits, except for shareholders participating in the Funds’ Automatic Dividend Reinvestment Plan who will receive fractional shares. Immediately following the reverse stock splits, each shareholder of record will hold the same percentage of their Fund’s outstanding common shares as held immediately prior to the reverse stock splits and will receive the same monthly cash flow from distributions on net asset value, subject to adjustments for the intended cash repurchase of fractional shares resulting from the reverse stock splits.

The reverse stock splits will not result in a taxable transaction for holders of the Funds, however, the exchange of fractional shares for cash may cause some shareholders to realize gains or losses, which could create a taxable event for those shareholders.

After the reverse stock splits, the dividend rate will be proportionally increased as follows:
